Chapter 17: Educated Youth Disobedient 16
Shao Jing didn't understand. Could it be that his charm had decreased?
But now is not the time to think about these things. Seeing that they left without any intention of waiting for him, he could only raise his feet and follow them with frustration.
If we were left behind at this time, who knows what strange things would appear in this remote area.
Thinking of this, Shao Jing quickened his pace a bit, and he looked as if he was about to flee.
How far was Houshan Village? It was probably so far that when Shao Jing was walking in the dark and asked how long it would take, the uncle kept saying, "How can a young man with such poor health go out to work in the fields? We're still halfway to the village!"
"That's right, why are you yelling? Don't you see how tired the uncle is from driving the car?" Luo An was happy to see Shao Jing get humiliated, and of course he was happy to kick him a few times.
"Uncle, don't bother with him. Here! These are the sunflower seeds my grandma specially roasted for me. Take a few handfuls back and let the child taste them."
The uncle's originally depressed mood was comforted by her in a few words, "You are a really good girl, but uncle has something to say that shouldn't be said. You have to hide this good thing a little, or you will be cheated by those shameless people."
The fact that he could bring this up showed that Luo An was no longer an ordinary educated youth in the other party's eyes, and he was treated as a junior of his own family.
"I understand. I know you're not that kind of person! If it were someone like that, I'd ignore him or not!"
The little girl held her head high with a slightly proud expression, which made the uncle laugh out loud and felt very happy.
Duan Jia, who was sitting next to her, looked at Luo An with admiration. This girl was not only beautiful and secure, but why was she so talkative? As an introvert, she was really envious.
In fact, Duan Jia also showed such an expression in the original owner's previous life, but the target was Shao Jing, and now it has changed to Luo An.
Shao Jing listened to the laughter in the carriage. His legs felt like they were filled with lead and he could only move forward numbly relying on inertia. Just when he thought he was about to die, the carriage finally slowly stopped.
When I looked up, I saw a girl with pockmarks on her face.
She said to him shyly, "You must be tired from walking! Let me help you carry your things."
Shao Jing liked the admiring gazes of girls, but the prerequisite was that the girl was pretty enough, not like the one in front of him, with pockmarks all over her face and sallow skin, which was not at all pretty. "No, no, I can do it myself."
Seeing that his things were about to fall into the other person's hands, Shao Jing quickly reached out to grab them. However, he used too much force and pulled the girl down. The girl felt pain and raised her palm to see that her skin was scratched by the small stone.
The uncle driving the car jumped out immediately when he saw her and said with a distressed look on his face, "Dahua, are you okay?"
It turned out that this girl was the uncle's eldest daughter. He went to the village entrance to meet her when it was getting darker. But she fell in love with Shao Jing, a scumbag.
In the original world, Zhang Dahua was undoubtedly a cannon fodder with a miserable end.
Luo An came here to bully the scum, so of course she couldn't let go of such a good opportunity. She quickly helped the uncle to lift Dahua up, and her mouth started firing at Shao Jing like a machine gun.
"When we were at the commune, I thought you were a kind person who cared about female comrades. I didn't expect your true colors to show up once you arrived in the village. Even if you're unhappy about walking back to the village, you could have just said so! Why take it out on such an innocent girl?"
Shao Jing: ...Will it be useful if I mention it? Think carefully about it.
"Also, you're not representing yourself now. You're one of our educated youth. You just arrived in the village and you pushed people. How will the villagers feel about us? How will the old educated youth feel about us, the new educated youth?"
Luo An's chatterboxing was in stark contrast to her pretty appearance. Shao Jing waited until she finished speaking before speaking with a grim expression.
"I didn't mean to..."
I, Luo An, raised my right hand and made a pause gesture, looking at the other person with disappointment, "If it's wrong, it's wrong. No matter if it was intentional or not, you don't even dare to admit your mistake now. You are a coward."
After the words fell, everyone looked at Shao Jing with a strange look in their eyes. This girl was right! If you do something wrong, just admit it. What's the point of a grown man being so timid?
Duan Jia was probably inspired by Luo An. He straightened his back and stood out from the crowd. He looked at Shao Jing with a frown, and his eyes were filled with nothing but disgust.
"An An is right! If you are wrong, you are wrong. You should apologize to Da Hua."
"Apologize! Apologize!" Several children watching the excitement around him followed suit and shouted, which immediately brought the matter to a new level of heat. Shao Jing had no idea that he would become the target of public criticism just after arriving in the countryside. Otherwise, he would have to ask his family to find him another piece of land.
Unfortunately, everyone was already here, so going back was impossible. Facing the eager gazes of the crowd, he could only swallow his anger and said to Dahua vaguely and quickly, "I'm sorry."
"What are you talking about? Speak louder! Haven't you eaten yet?"
Luo An continued to make trouble. Shao Jing looked at her with a look that was as poisonous as poison. He gritted his teeth and said word by word, "Sorry! Sorry! Are you satisfied now?"
Dahua had never seen such a scene before, so she quickly waved her hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay..."
"It's okay, what's the big deal? Your palm is injured, too. You need to buy some mercurochrome to rub it on, or it'll fester. How about this! Shao Zhiqing pays Dahua one dollar, and we'll call it a day, okay?"
You're the best! Ten thousand alpaca horses ran through Shao Jing's heart. He charged one dollar for just a scratch on the skin. Isn't this extortion?
He doesn't want to give it!
But more and more villagers were coming this way, and he was afraid that if he didn't give them the money, they would beat him up. His mother said, poor and bad places produce unruly people, so one should always put his own safety first. After all, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
Seeing his eyes rolling around, Luo An knew that he was plotting something bad again, but after a quick glance, she began to urge him, "Can you please say something? We all have to go back to eat. We don't have time to judge the case for you here."
Shao Jing was helpless and took out a dollar from his pocket and handed it over with heartache. He looked as if he had cut off a piece of his flesh. In the eyes of others, he was stingy and useless.
Dahua was too embarrassed to ask for the money, so Luo An took it and stuffed it into her pocket. "Hands are a woman's second face, but don't think this is too much compensation. If I wasn't afraid that you would feel bad, I would ask him to pay ten yuan!"
Zhang Dahua was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth. Ten yuan for a scratch? Girls from the city are so valuable! Unlike these village girls, the betrothal gifts may not even be worth a hundred yuan.
Zhang Dahua felt a little inferior and envious. She pursed her lips and nodded, but ultimately did not push the money out.
As for Shao Jing? In his previous life, he was very good at pretending. As soon as he entered the village, he gained connections with many young women and wives. Zhang Dahua fell in love with him at first sight.
Now? She's only slightly better than the villagers. She's pretty, but as that pretty girl said, her character is not good.
And there is another reason why the other party doesn't want to let herself touch him. He dislikes her, and Dahua knows it.
