Chapter 31 Chen Dazhu
A woman like this has no looks and no strength. Why marry her? Are you going to worship her like an ancestor? Just forget it.
But when he thought of the one hundred yuan that Cheng Qiao mentioned, his heart was moved again. After all, after working so hard in the fields for a year, after deducting his own food rations, he could only get twenty or thirty yuan.
Chen Dazhu narrowed his eyes and walked towards Xu Laidi without hesitation. He also wanted to learn from the second-rate guy and find a chance to hug this woman in his arms. Then the hundred yuan share of the money would belong to him.
In the cornfield, some people were picking corn, some were busy pulling carts or pushing small wheelbarrows. Xu Laidi kept yawning and looked drowsy.
Jiang Guangrong became furious when he saw Xu Laidie's lazy look. Everyone was working hard, but she seemed to be sleepy and kept hiding on the side, procrastinating and trying to be slacking off.
"Xu Laidi, you go push the cart, Han Chunmei, you come break the sticks."
The fields are crisscrossed with paths and paths, and it is difficult to push a wheelbarrow full of corn cobs. One person must push the cart and two people must pull it, so Jiang Guangrong decided to let Xu Laidi push the cart. This is a strenuous job and there is no room for delay.
Xu Laidi glanced at the wheelbarrow and wanted to refuse, but Jiang Guangrong's face was too ugly, so he could only mutter, lift the handle of the wheelbarrow, and push the cart to the threshing ground with all his strength.
Xiaoqin and Xiaoping rolled their eyes at Xu Laidi, and cooperated with each other, holding the tricycle on both sides, trying their best to keep the balance of the unicycle.
After just this one push, Xu Laidi's sleepiness was completely gone, but he had no strength in his hands, he was hungry, and he didn't sleep well at night. No one could have persisted.
You have to know that the last time I bought ten kilograms of sorghum flour from Chunhua, I ate it carefully every day, and this food had to last until the autumn harvest when it could be distributed.
Although the village chief said that he would return the centimeters to Cheng Qiao as money, she did not believe that he would starve her to death. Anyway, things would work out when the time comes. Before the autumn grain was distributed, she could only eat one meal a day.
So after pushing the cart once, I really didn't have any strength left. When the second cart was full, I could only discuss with Xiaoqin and her sister to let her hold the cart instead, otherwise it would waste their time.
Xiaoqin sighed. She knew about Xu Laidi's situation. Although she couldn't stand her selfishness and vicious heart, she was a revolutionary comrade who slept on the same kang after all, so she should still help her if she could.
So Xiaoqin pushed the tricycle loaded with corn cobs, while Xiaoping and Xu Laidi held the tricycle on both sides, trying their best to keep it balanced.
I don’t know if it was because the ground was uneven or if Xu Laidie was really out of strength, but the unicycle tilted towards Xu Laidie. No matter how hard Xiaoqin and Xiaoping tried, they couldn’t stop the unicycle from falling to one side.
Xu Laidi wanted to run, but she couldn't take a step. Xiaoqin and Xiaoping could hardly hold on any longer and they screamed, attracting everyone's attention.
Then a man rushed over like the wind, grabbed the unicycle that was about to fall, and of course held Xu Laidi in his arms.
Xu Laidi loosened his heavy hands and felt the heat coming from his back again. He couldn't help but want to turn around to see who helped him, but before he turned around, he smelled a strong odor of sweat and almost vomited.
"How are you, are you okay?"
Chen Dazhu still held the edge of the wheelbarrow tightly with both hands, and pushed Xu Laidi tightly in front of him. Feeling the changes in himself, his tone of voice became gentler.
Xu Laidi: “…%￥…”
"Let me go now."
Chen Dazhu was about to let go of his hand when he thought of the one hundred yuan share of money that Cheng Qiao mentioned. He couldn't help but hold on harder. One hundred yuan, he had to hold on.
"Xu Laidi, how are you?"
Hearing the scream, Jiang Guangrong ran over in a rage. You know, if this truckload of corn cobs hits someone, he will definitely get hurt. At that time, he would really have no chance of doing his job.
"I...let me go."
Xu Laidi was about to speak when she saw Chen Dazhui still hugging her tightly. She couldn't help but get anxious. She had to go back to the city, so how could she be okay being hugged by a peasant like this?
"Dazhu, Xu Zhiqing, what are you two doing hugging each other?"
Aunt Wang was working in a field next to the educated youth. When she heard Xiaoqin and Xiaoping's screams, she hurriedly pulled the village head's wife Cuihua over. She saw Chen Dazhui hugging Xu Laidie at a glance, but ignored the pair of hands pulling the wheelbarrow.
Xu Laidie's head started buzzing and she quickly twisted her body, trying to get out of Chen Dazhu's arms. She didn't want to marry a peasant, especially a peasant who smelled bad.
"Don't move. If you move again, I will kill you right here."
Chen Dazhu originally just wanted to rub it, but after being twisted by Xu Laidi, his face started to look strange, and he could only threaten in a low voice.
Xu Laidi was panicking. She was now completely held in Chen Dazhu's arms. How could she live her life in the future? So she struggled even harder.
Aunt Wang and Cuihua were both experienced people. They knew what was going on as soon as they saw Chen Dazhu's face, and quickly told Xu Laidie not to move. Xu Laidie felt a sudden extra feeling behind him and his face turned red.
With the help of Aunt Wang and Cuihua, Xu Laidi finally escaped from Chen Dazhu's arms, but he never dared to look back and ran straight back towards the educated youth point.
The scorer also ran over, saw the direction Xu Laidie was running, curled his lips, opened the centimeter book, found Xu Laidie's name, and directly drew a duck egg.
Aunt Wang couldn't read, but she recognized duck eggs. She looked at Xu Laidie's back as he ran away with a little pity. They said that you shouldn't do bad things, or God will not let you go.
But marrying Chen Dazhu is definitely better than marrying a second-rate guy. At least Chen Dazhu is hardworking. His only shortcoming is that he is a little dull. And his stepmother is a little powerful.
"Cuihua, it looks like another couple is going to have their wedding after the autumn harvest."
"Not necessarily. Xu Laidi is not Cheng Qiao. This woman is very cunning."
Cuihua shook her head and helped Xiaoping and Xiaoqin push the corn cobs in the wheelbarrow to the threshing ground. Xiaoping and Xiaoqin thanked them repeatedly but were very disappointed with Xu Laidi.
Xu Laidi returned to the educated youth point with a sad face and saw Cheng Qiao lying on her bunk reading a book. The afternoon sun shone in through the mottled window sills, making Cheng Qiao look unparalleled in her beauty.
The circle of white gauze bandaged on the head was also particularly pleasing to the eye, as if it was not gauze, but an extremely simple and extremely beautiful headdress, which made Cheng Qiao's little face look even more delicate.
