Ruan Niannian remained noncommittal and did not directly answer her question.
This made Wu Xinghua very nervous, and she kept wondering if she was going too far.
After thinking about it, she immediately denied it. The shop could handle the work even if she was not there, with Ruan Niannian around. What if Brother Wolf needed to go to the toilet in the morning or something? Wouldn't it be... inconvenient if she was not there?
Wu Xinghua was daydreaming when Ruan Niannian had already pushed open the gate of the yard, and the sound of chopping wood came from inside.
Strange, is there anyone else in his family besides Brother Lang? Could it be Pei Qingsong who came to help chop firewood? He would go to Pei Qingyang's house every one or two days to help chop firewood, and Ruan Niannian would also pay him wages, which were counted on Li Jinhua (Pei's wife).
(In the following text, the three sisters-in-law of the Pei family are all referred to by their full names: Li Jinhua, the eldest sister-in-law of Pei; Zhang Xiangyun, the second sister-in-law of Pei; and Wu Lanhua, the third sister-in-law of Pei. They were not used at the beginning because we were afraid that there would be too many names and people would be confused.)
Wu Xinghua leaned over to take a look, her mouth hanging open, "Wolf... Brother Wolf?"
Could anyone tell her why Pei Qinggang, whose foot was injured, could still do such work as chopping wood? His foot was pierced by a splinter, shouldn't he stay in bed and rest?
"Did you see that?" Ruan Niannian pointed at Pei Qinggang who was chopping wood without stopping, "Why does Brother Wolf need you to take care of him? He is very capable."
I don’t know which words touched Wu Xinghua’s heart, but she actually ran away with a red face.
Why are young people so shy when dating? If you don't express your love bravely, your sweetheart may fly away.
Ruan Niannian thought about it divergently.
The truth is that Wu Xinghua and Pei Qinggang are not a good match. Although Ruan Niannian encourages them to try, she is not optimistic about the outcome. The final result depends on themselves.
Pei Qinggang had always lived in the mountains and was not very worldly-wise, so it was inevitable that he would have a crush on the first unmarried girl he met who took care of him.
Wu Xinghua was just the opposite. She had experienced too much. She dated a young man in the village, but his status skyrocketed, he ran away, and turned around to suppress her family. She was almost sold to a widower who had beaten his wife to death. After she escaped, she met Zheng Chenggong, who hatefully "trained" her in some "undercover" knowledge.
No matter how you look at it, she is definitely not an innocent girl.
To be honest, although Zheng Chenggong appears innocent and harmless in front of Ruan Niannian, and even has the cuteness and naivety of a fat boy, in Ruan Niannian's heart, he is not a particularly decent person.
Didn’t you see how scared Wu Xinghua was when she saw him?
At this time, Wu Xinghua stuck to Pei Qinggang as if she was looking for an honest man to take over.
Pei Qing just heard the sound at the door, looked up and called out, "Sister-in-law."
Continue chopping wood.
Wu Xinghua ran over and advised him not to work, "Brother Wolf, your foot is still injured, how can you do such heavy work? There is still a lot of firewood, how long will it take you to chop? Go back and rest for a while."
"Don't pull me." Pei Qinggang waved his hand, pushed Wu Xinghua aside, and continued chopping wood.
He was so strong that he threw Wu Xinghua to the ground.
He really doesn't know how to be gentle with women. Ruan Niannian thought that they were in love with each other, but Pei Qinggang was not good at expressing it.
Now it seems that there is no love between the man and the woman, it is clearly that the flower has feelings but the water is heartless for the time being!
While watching the show, Ruan Niannian suddenly realized that something was wrong. Where did her family get so much firewood? She rarely cooked at home, and the only firewood she had was prepared by Pei Qingsong because he was afraid that they would occasionally want to cook something without firewood.
We also have two boxes of matches at home in case of emergency.
Could it be that Pei Qinggang had chopped this pile of firewood himself in the mountains early in the morning while they were out?
They didn't even have an axe! How did he chop it?
The two people in the yard started to pull each other again, and Ruan Niannian only regretted that she didn't have a handful of melon seeds in her hand.
This feeling of extreme tension in a relationship is really great, and I'm always looking forward to the plot twist.
As they were watching the show, an unexpected person walked towards their house, "Ruan Zhiqing, long time no see."
Now the only people who still call her Ruan Zhiqing are the people at the Zhiqing point. It has been so long that she can't tell whose voice it is. When she turned around, she found it was Zhang Hongyu (the female educated youth in charge of the educated youth point, who appeared at the beginning of the story).
"Is there anything wrong? Zhang Zhiqing?" Ruan Niannian didn't have a bad impression of her, but she didn't have a particularly good impression of her either.
She is a relatively moderate person. She is not warm-hearted, nor is she jealous for no reason. In Ruan Niannian's heart, Zhang Hongyu is a person who is neither good nor bad.
Zhang Hongyu walked up to Ruan Niannian and said to her with a smile, "Ruan Zhiqing, your family has been moving for so long and you haven't asked anyone to warm up the house or anything like that. We are all waiting. Oh, by the way, your wolf brother lent us an axe today. When he returned the axe, he also helped me pick up a lot of firewood. It's enough for us to use for a long time. I came here to thank him."
First he tried to establish a relationship with her, saying politely that she had moved house and didn't hire anyone to warm up the house, then he brought up the matter of Brother Wolf borrowing an axe and returning the firewood.
It's a matter of borrowing and returning, and she even came to express her gratitude specially. Either she is crazy, or she has fallen for Pei Qinggang!
What a great guy, Brother Wolf! The market is really good.
"He's here, chopping wood. Since you're here, come in and have a drink of water, Xiao Zhang. I've been busy since I moved, so I just had a meal with my family."
Zhang Hongyu smiled and praised her, "I know you are a busy person. Your breakfast shop is very popular now. Although we don't have time to buy some to try, we are willing to see you getting better and better."
Who doesn't like to hear nice words? Anyway, Ruan Niannian likes it. Just because she is so good at talking, she must try to drink a cup of tea.
No matter how they got along before, wish her all the best and there is a possibility that they can develop a friendship.
The two of them, one holding the other, naturally walked into the yard one after the other.
Just then, I saw Wu Xinghua being pushed away by Pei Qinggang and falling on her butt.
"Go away, don't pull me!" Pei Qinggang's tone seemed a little angry, and he deliberately raised the axe at Wu Xinghua.
Seeing Wu Xinghua rushing towards the axe and trying to pull it away, Pei Qinggang almost couldn't avoid it. Ruan Niannian hurried to pull Wu Xinghua away, "What are you doing? Go back and cook. I'll persuade Brother Wolf here."
Wu Xinghua was so absorbed in persuading Pei Qinggang that she didn't hear what Ruan Niannian and Zhang Hongyu were talking about at the door. When she heard her say that and saw that a guest had arrived, she responded in a low voice and went back to the next room.
"Brother Wolf, look who's here? The educated youth Xiao Zhang from the educated youth camp said she came to thank you. You guys chat while I go get her some water."
Ruan Niannian led the person to Pei Qinggang and walked into the house, but she pricked up her ears to listen to the noise outside.
Pei Qinggang only heard him shout "Hongyu".
Wow, you called me Hongyu right after we met? Are you so close?
