Zhou Lianyi returned to her own fields to work. Feeling depressed, she had to admit that He Wanqing did not hide anything.
Not only did he teach them the same method, but he also taught her one more thing, which was to buy gloves.
Looking up at He Wanqing who was talking to someone in the field, Zhou Lianyi became even more depressed.
Thinking that her little idea could not be implemented, she could only vent her frustration on the weeds. She quickened her hand movements, and by the time she got off work, she had already completed three work points.
Compared with other newly arrived educated youth, she worked much faster, which also brought her into the sight of the village aunts and sisters.
In the following days, the aunts and uncles often chatted with Zhou Lianyi in order to find a hardworking daughter-in-law for their sons.
In addition to her generosity, some people even told their sons to help her with work and show up in front of her more often, so that they could marry the cash cow into the family.
Because of this incident, He Wanqing and Chen Ping watched the excitement for a month, until Zhou Lianyi came to them in distress and asked for help, and then they suppressed their upturned lips.
"So you came to me for help?" Looking at Zhou Lianyi who was worried and holding a kettle in one hand and putting the other hand on her waist, He Wanqing asked curiously with her eyes flashing.
"Well, I really have no other choice. Please help me think of a solution. If this continues, I feel that they will soon assign me to marry someone."
Thinking of the rumors over the past half month, Zhou Lianyi wished she could strangle herself to death.
Why didn't she listen to their advice and insisted on spending so much money on buying so many things? Now she is a lamb to be slaughtered.
His eyes fell on her military canteen, and He Wanqing answered irrelevantly: "Is your family in the military?"
"Ah~ yes, can't I come to you for help in this case?" Looking down at the kettle, Zhou Lianyi's gaze fell from her to Shen Ping, and finally looked at her again.
"Okay, but I want to ask you a question. If you answer me, I will know how to help you."
After taking a look at Zhou Lianyi, who was sticking to her like a dog-skin plaster but occasionally looked at her with a resentful look, she decided to speak frankly today.
She wanted to figure out what she meant.
He obviously hates her so much and even looks at her with disdain, so why does he still stay with her and even come to her for help now instead of thinking of going to the captain?
"You ask~"
As if she knew what she was going to ask, Zhou Lianyi glanced at her guiltily, then looked at Gu Ya and Wu Shuling, but she didn't dare to look at her directly like she did just now.
"Have I ever offended you before?"
"No." Zhou Lianyi shook her head honestly.
"Have we met before?"
“Neither do I.”
"Then why do you come to me for help even though you hate me? Aren't you afraid that I won't pay attention to you?
After all, I'm not blind and I'm not a masochist. Do you think I would help someone who looks down on me in every way? ? ”
Looking at Zhou Lianyi who suddenly looked up, He Wanqing knew that what she said was true.
This man really looked down on her, yet wanted to ask her for help. He resented her, yet hoped to be cared for by a girl from his own village.
What's more, it is estimated that while she was defending her, she was still laughing at her in private! ? ? ?
"I don't hate you, nor do I look down on you." I just feel unhappy.
The words were on the tip of her tongue but she swallowed them back. She was not stupid and she knew that a man of insight is a wise man!
"Do you think I believe it?" He sneered and looked at her.
She had only guessed before, and later it was confirmed a little bit, but after half a month, even though she was stupid and knew that she looked down on her in every way, she still compared herself with her everywhere.
"I~" Who told Gu Cheng'an not to marry me but to marry a country girl like you?
Zhou Lianyi almost said this, but when she saw the gazes around her, she swallowed her words.
Thinking of her accusations, she felt that there might be no results today, but not wanting to bow her head and explain the reasons, she turned and left.
"I'm leaving."
Seeing that she would rather continue to be harassed than explain, He Wanqing was so angry that she laughed.
But she was afraid that she would really be tricked, so she had to remind her: "If you really can't stand it, go find the captain, and be more aggressive yourself."
As a woman who had been plotted against before, she didn’t want to see the next one appear in the village.
"I understand, thank you." Looking back at her with a troubled look, Zhou Lianyi trotted away.
She is very conflicted now. She knows that it is Gu Cheng'an's freedom to marry whomever he wants. After all, they have no engagement, so she should not resent He Wanqing.
But when she thought about how she asked her father to find someone to propose to Gu Cheng'an, but was coldly rejected by him and then married a village girl, forcing her to go to the countryside, she couldn't help but resent He Wanqing.
Feeling conflicted, Zhou Lianyi quickened her pace and returned to her work place in a blink of an eye.
She looked at He Wanqing and the others from afar, and thinking about what had happened during the past half month, she lowered her head and sighed.
Maybe she really shouldn't blame He Wanqing, and shouldn't drag her out everywhere and compare her in front of the villagers, because Gu Chengan rejected her father from the beginning.
As if she suddenly understood something, she squatted down with her deflated body and hunched shoulders and began to weed, working absent-mindedly.
She had made up her mind that after work in the evening, she would go to He Wanqing to apologize, tell her the reason, and try to get her to forgive her. After all, one more friend means one more way.
"Sister, does Zhou Zhiqing really have something against you???" Chen Ping, who was asked by her before, looked at him with her mouth wide open in surprise after seeing Zhou Lianyi leave.
"Well, didn't you feel that she always pulled me aside in the village?" It's just that no one in the village paid attention to her.
And he would do some tricks to her, but she would find out every time, and she would always look apologetic, otherwise I would have been dealt with by her long ago.
"Hehe, I really didn't notice." Chen Ping stuck out her tongue. It was mainly because her mouth was too sweet every time. She was so busy drinking honey water that she had no time to look at other things.
"Sister, will we let her follow us to and from work in the future?"
"It's up to her. If she wants to follow, she can follow." He glanced at her and didn't say no.
"Oh, then I'll stay like this!" After hearing the meaning of her words, Chen Ping rolled her eyes.
"Um."
After taking a look at Zhou Lianyi who was working in the fields, she set her eyes on Gu Ya and Wu Shuling.
She had a hunch that these two must know why Zhou Lianyi treated her like that.
Gu Ya and Wu Shuling, who were used to sitting on the ground, had been avoiding her gaze when she asked Zhou Lianyi just now. Now seeing that she was staring at them, they couldn't help feeling uneasy.
"Sister, what should we do? Sister-in-law is targeting us?"
"How would I know? My cousin didn't tell us before he left. Anyway, Zhou Lianyi's affairs cannot come out of our mouths."
The two sisters whispered to each other and spoke with such certainty that they were almost ready to swear to the heavens.
