Chapter 33 Chen Zhaodi's younger brother Er Laizi
In order to avoid meeting Lu Mingfeng, Shen Jiale did not plan to go to the black market in the near future. The busy farming season had just begun.
When harvesting wheat, Shen Jiale wore a long coat, long pants, and a straw hat.
The girl who was assigned to the same group as him worked very quickly and soon left Shen Jiale behind.
Shen Jiale was not in a hurry. The busy farming season had just begun and would take more than a month. There was no need to tire himself out right at the beginning.
The village had distributed food to the villagers. Everyone was well fed and naturally had strength to work. They also wanted to take advantage of this time to earn more work points.
Shen Jiale was concentrating on harvesting wheat. Suddenly, there was a scream from the front. He looked up and saw the girl sitting on the ground, hugging her left leg with both hands, and blood was flowing from her leg.
This is a cut from a sickle.
Shen Jiale walked over, rolled up her trouser legs, saw the cut on her leg, took out a handbandage to bandage it temporarily, and told her to go to the bathroom for treatment.
The girl said it was okay, stood up and was about to continue working.
Shen Jiale said: "You can't do this, the weather is hot, the wound will get infected if it is not treated."
The girl said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I usually get injured, just grab some wood ash and press it on."
Seeing that she didn't listen to his advice, Shen Jiale went back to work.
At first, the girl's speed was not slow, and she said to Shen Jiale proudly: "Look, I said it's okay, I cut faster than you."
After a while, the speed slowed down.
Shen Jiale saw that her face was pale and her trousers and legs were covered in blood. He said, "Are you really okay? The bleeding doesn't seem to have stopped."
The girl sat on the ground and said, "I'll take a break before I continue."
Shen Jiale handed her his water cup. The girl took it and gulped down a few sips of water.
After two minutes of calming down, the girl wanted to get up and work again.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stood up, the girl felt dizzy, her eyes went black, and she fell down.
Shen Jiale called Captain Zhou, and Captain Zhou called the girl's family over.
Her mother came over and saw her daughter bleeding on her legs. Not only did she not care, she also said impatiently, "You are so busy, and you only know how to make trouble."
Then she walked to the girl, squatted down, and pinched the girl's philtrum with her hand.
The girl woke up slowly and asked, "Mom, why are you here?"
"It's all because of you. I had my breakfast in the morning and you fainted because of this little injury. Are you pretending not to want to work?"
The girl sat up and said, "Mom, I'm fine. I just got up too quickly. I'll be more careful next time."
"Okay, work quickly. I'm leaving."
The girl's mother left like this without asking about the injury on her leg.
The people working nearby didn't think it was a big deal and continued with their work.
The girl was obviously dizzy from blood loss, and it was obvious that she and her family didn't take it seriously.
Shen Jiale didn't know how to describe her current mood.
She had also experienced such a situation, and in order not to delay earning work points, she also gritted her teeth and persevered.
Finally, Shen Jiale could not bear it, so he replaced the water in the cup with spring water, walked up to the girl and said, "Take off your handkerchief, I'll wash your wound for you, and then change another handkerchief."
The girl said no, "It's hard to wash a handkerchief stained with blood, and you've already wasted a handkerchief."
Shen Jiale rolled up his trouser legs, untied his handkerchief and said, "Don't worry, I can wash it clean."
He slowly washed the blood off his legs with spring water, and then Shen Jiale took out another handkerchief to bandage it.
The girl saw that Shen Jiale had used all the water in the cup to wash her wound, so she went to the field to get her own salt water bottle and wanted to pour her own water to Shen Jiale.
Shen Jiale said no, and let her keep it for herself.
Originally, the girl had some thoughts of competing with Shen Jiale in work, but now facing Shen Jiale's concern for her, she was much more pleasing to Shen Jiale. She
took the initiative to explain herself.
The girl's name is Chen Zhaodi, she is the same age as Shen Jiale, both are 85 years old, and she has a younger brother.
Because they had to work, the two did not talk much. It was not
until the end of the work in the morning that Chen Zhaodi came to Shen Jiale and said that she had something to tell her.
Seeing Chen Zhaodi's mysterious look, Shen Jiale did not expect that what Chen Zhaodi said next was actually related to herself.
Chen Zhaodi first talked about Wang Yanhong's gossip.
After being passed on by many people, the matter has already become many versions.
As she talked, Chen Zhaodi scolded Wang Yanhong.
"This woman is very bad, and Jiang Haoran from your Youth League Institute is not a good person either. The two of them played a prank on my brother, causing him to be beaten by Lu Mingfeng."
Shen Jiale wanted to hear about anything related to Lu Mingfeng.
"Jiang Haoran said that he got along well with my brother and wanted to give him a pair of shoes, and asked my brother to go to the educated youth institute
to get them. My brother went there, but didn't find the shoes where he said. He went back to look for him, but Wang Yanhong said that she had taken the shoes to the female educated youth's room, so my brother went to get them secretly.
As a result, he didn't get the shoes, and was discovered by Lu Mingfeng, who beat him up."
Shen Jiale was stunned and asked her, "When did it happen?"
Chen Zhaodi said, "More than a month ago."
Shen Jiale asked her to think carefully, and Chen Zhaodi said a specific date, which was the day Shen Jiale was reborn.
"What's your brother's name?"
"My full name is Chen Dabao, but everyone is used to calling him Er Laizi."
...
Along the way, Shen Jiale recalled the various experiences of his previous life.
At first, she thought she was not good at judging people.
Now she realized that she had been a target of others' attacks from the beginning. She
returned to her residence full of anger and saw Jiang Haoran and Wang Yanhong talking.
The two saw Shen Jiale's cold eyes staring at them like ice spikes. They shivered for no reason in the hot weather.
Wang Yanhong asked in a low voice: "Why is she looking at us like that?"
Jiang Haoran said, "How should I know? What do you want to talk to me about?"
Wang Yanhong then remembered the important matter: "Haoran, we are already like that, why don't we..." "
The busy farming season is very tiring. Let's talk about it after the busy farming season."
Jiang Haoran was about to leave, and Wang Yanhong held him back: "They are already together, are you still not giving up?"
Jiang Haoran said with a gloomy face: "She is such a proud person, how could she marry a farmer casually."
...
Li Cheng has been very distressed recently. When working, he and the mother and daughter of the Chen family were assigned a piece of land.
The mother and daughter either brought him water or asked him if he was tired.
How could work not be tiring? It would be fine if they asked once, but the three of them took turns to ask every half an hour.
Li Cheng was very annoyed, but they just cared about him, so he couldn't treat them coldly.
Li Cheng's face was almost frozen from smiling all morning.
The people working nearby joked that the mother and daughter of the Chen family were attracted to him and wanted to recruit him as a live-in son-in-law.
Li Cheng complained in his heart, who the hell would be attracted to the daughters of the Chen family? The two daughters looked at him as if they wanted to eat him alive.
Li Cheng and Shen Jiale worked not far from each other, and Shen Jiale could clearly see that the mother and daughter of the Chen family were being attentive to Li Cheng.
Shen Jiale saw that Li Cheng was obviously trying to avoid them.
In his previous life, Li Cheng was targeted by the two daughters of the Chen family, Chen Dachun and Chen Xiaofang. Chen Daya asked a matchmaker to propose marriage, but Li Cheng refused.
Later, Li Cheng was tricked into taking something and was locked in the house by Chen Dachun.
Chen Dachun tore her clothes and yelled, saying that Li Cheng flirted with her and wanted him to take responsibility. Li Cheng did not give in despite the accusations of the whole village.
After the educated youths returned to the city one after another, Li Cheng stayed in Yaoshui Village because his parents had passed away and his sister-in-law did not let his brother help him find connections.
Seeing that there was no hope of returning to the city, Chen Daya deceived him and said that she would adopt him as her adopted son. She tricked him into Chen Dachun's bed. After the rice was cooked, Li Cheng had no choice but to marry into the Chen family.
At first, the Chen family was really good to Li Cheng.
Chen Daya called him "my son" all the time and made delicious food for him every day.
After Chen Dachun gave birth to two girls, the family's attitude changed. Li Cheng did all the housework. The mother and daughter of the Chen family would beat or scold Li Cheng if they were not satisfied.
After giving birth to a boy as his third child, Li Cheng found a job outside and had to hand in all his wages, otherwise he would be beaten and scolded.
A grown man, but he didn’t even have money for cigarettes.
Li Cheng’s sister came from another place to visit him and invited Li Cheng to dinner in town, but the mother and daughter of the Chen family found out and blocked him in the small restaurant and beat Li Cheng in front of Li Cheng’s sister.
Li Cheng really couldn’t stand this kind of life, so he ran away that night and never came back.
Shen Jiale still remembers that in his previous life, Li Cheng complained to her, saying that it is not necessarily a good thing for a person to be too diligent and capable.
Later, Shen Jiale heard from the villagers that the Chen family chose Li Cheng because he was diligent and had a good temper.
