Chapter 17 Chapter 17 I want to pinch Lin Zhengrong's muscles

"Why are you nervous? I'm asking if it happened before, not now." Jiang Qiuyue asked this purely out of gossip. After all, Lin Zhengrong was good-looking, so it was normal for someone to have a crush on him when he was young.

Lin Zhengrong wiped his mouth and looked at Jiang Qiuyue seriously, "I didn't say much to her, it's really nothing."

"Okay, okay, I get it. Remember to wash the dishes after eating. I just heard Wang Youren say that he will go to the town to buy fertilizers in the afternoon, so I plan to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to have a look." Jiang Qiuyue got Lin Zhengrong's passbook, and she would not be embarrassed to keep it. Once the money was in her hands, she had to spend it.

When Lin Beibei heard that they were going to the town, she immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks, hugged Jiang Qiuyue's hand, and acted coquettishly next to Jiang Qiuyue, "Mom, can you take me with you?"

He has never been to the town, but he has always heard others say how great the town is and has wanted to go there for a long time.

Lin Nannan was also moved and looked at her mother with her big eyes.

Jiang Qiuyue couldn't resist the two children's coquettishness. As she had nothing to do today, she could just take the children with her.

"Then you have to walk by yourselves." She couldn't carry him.

Lin Beibei happily said yes, "Where's Dad? Will Dad go?"

"I..." Lin Zhengrong looked at Jiang Qiuyue, "I'll listen to your mother."

Jiang Qiuyue thought about it and thought that Lin Zhengrong was very strong. If she bought something, it would be great to let Lin Zhengrong carry it back. She wouldn't have to work so hard.

"Then you can go with us. I have never taken two children to the town. It's a good idea for each of us to look after one to prevent them from getting lost." Jiang Qiuyue went back to the house to get the money and cloth coupons. Her clothes were all old, so she should make some new clothes.

By the time she was ready and Lin Zhengrong had finished washing the dishes, the family set out. Wang Chunhua and her family from next door had not returned yet.

"How long will it take you to come back for this visit?" Jiang Qiuyue asked.

"One month." Lin Zhengrong said.

"So long!" Jiang Qiuyue was surprised, then realized that her expression was too exaggerated, and quickly turned her head away. Normally, she should be happy to see Lin Zhengrong, instead of complaining that he took too long to come back.

Although Lin Zhengrong is good-looking, strong, and decisive in his actions, Jiang Qiuyue is not used to the sudden addition of someone else.

Especially when sleeping at night, there is only one bed at home, which is very inconvenient.

She had only one request to Lin Zhengrong, that he pay her on time. As for being a loving couple, she felt that she didn't have the nerve for love.

Jiang Qiuyue just wants to lie down and live her life until she is a hundred years old. She doesn't want to worry about anything.

Lin Zhengrong saw Jiang Qiuyue's expression and frowned slightly, "Don't you want me to stay at home longer?"

"No... not really, I'm just afraid that you'll delay the work of the troops. You said you were busy, but actually there's nothing to do at home, I can handle it." With the money in hand, Jiang Qiuyue could find someone else to do what she couldn't do. "I definitely won't hold you back, don't worry, work is still the most important thing, I won't cry and stop you from leaving."

She felt that she was very sensible, not clingy, and not nagging. Lin Zhengrong should be very satisfied with her attitude.

All the way to the village entrance, Jiang Qiuyue didn't notice that Lin Zhengrong didn't smile until she heard the sound of a tractor behind her and then she turned around to look.

"Sister Qiuyue!" Wang Youren smiled brightly, "I know you are going to the town too, so I put a snakeskin bag behind you so you won't get your pants dirty when you sit down."

Seeing Lin Zhengrong and his son, Wang Youren scratched his head and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Dazhu, I didn't know you were going to be together, and I didn't prepare anything for you."

Lin Zhengrong said it was okay, "I don't care."

Jiang Qiuyue also felt that men didn't need to care about this. Anyway, Lin Zhengrong let him wash his clothes himself, but the two children had to pay attention to hygiene from an early age. "Mom, can you hold Nannan? Otherwise, the clothes will get dirty."

Lin Nannan liked to cling to her mother and nodded happily. Lin Beibei also wanted to be hugged, so Jiang Qiuyue pushed him to Lin Zhengrong, "Let daddy hold you. He's not afraid of getting dirty."

Lin Zhengrong: ...When did he stop being afraid of getting dirty?

The two children were very excited as it was their first time riding a tractor. They rumbled all the way to the town. Jiang Qiuyue and Wang Youren thanked the tractor, and Lin Beibei followed suit.

"You're welcome. We are from the same village and should help each other. Sister Qiuyue, I have to go back at three o'clock. You have to hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to catch up." Wang Youren always speaks with a smile. He is a very sunny young man.

Jiang Qiuyue waved and said goodbye. When she turned around, Lin Zhengrong asked her if she always went into the city like this.

"I was too embarrassed to take a tractor before, but later I couldn't walk that far because of my poor health, so I shamelessly asked Youren if I could take one. Youren said yes very nicely, but I didn't take advantage of him. I would bring him some food from time to time." Jiang Qiuyue held the woman's hand, "Let's go, Nannan, let's go buy some cloth."

They entered the supply and marketing cooperative, and Jiang Qiuyue directly asked for three meters of blue cloth and three meters of red cloth. Although everyone wore dark clothes, she didn't need clothes that were so resistant to dirt. She was still so young and needed to dress herself up more.

After spending all the cloth coupons in her hand, Jiang Qiuyue went to ask about the price of a bicycle.

"It depends on what brand you want. The cheapest is 350, and the best is 480. But the supply and marketing cooperative doesn't always have bicycles. Look, there is only one Feige brand bicycle now." The salesperson pointed Jiang Qiuyue in a direction, "If you want to buy a bicycle, you have to prepare the bicycle ticket early."

Bicycle tickets are not easy to get. Hu Haizhi's family is the only one in Taohua Village that has a bicycle, and Hu Haizhi got the bicycle ticket two years ago when he was selected as an active party member.

Jiang Qiuyue could find someone to buy the tickets and just spend a little more money, but she didn't know who had them.

After inquiring about the market price of bicycles, Jiang Qiuyue bought some biscuits and egg cakes. She couldn't buy sugar, flour and meat for no other reason than that she had no tickets.

When buying things at the supply and marketing cooperative, you must have a ticket.

Jiang Qiuyue was very generous in her purchases and had used up her monthly coupons in just half a month. Now that there was one more person at home, she had to go to the black market to buy more meat. Looking at Lin Zhengrong's righteous face, she thought it would be better for her to go by herself and did not plan to tell Lin Zhengrong about the black market.

Jiang Qiuyue gave each of the two children a piece of egg cake and ate one herself. Seeing that Lin Zhengrong didn't eat it, she asked, "You don't like it?"

"No, I noticed that you seem to care a lot about food." Lin Zhengrong said.

"Of course, food is the most important thing for people. I was stupid before and didn't know to save money for myself. Now that I have money, I must eat well and dress warmly." Jiang Qiuyue finished eating the egg cake and saw Lin Zhengrong pointing at her mouth. She realized that there were egg cake crumbs on her lips and wiped her mouth embarrassedly.

Eating well can make people feel energetic. Jiang Qiuyue was about to go to the agreed place to wait for Wang Youren, but she saw Wang Chunhua and his wife.

She pulled Lin Zhengrong to hide behind the house and asked, "Why did they come to town?"

Lin Zhengrong said he didn’t know.

Jiang Qiuyue saw that there was still time, so she leaned over to listen to Wang Chunhua arguing with someone else.

From Lin Zhengrong's angle, he could just see Jiang Qiuyue's pink ears and white neck. She looked quite cute with her gossipy look.

Wang Chunhua was arguing with someone. "What do you mean my daughter is shameless? You are a teacher. If you don't take care of my daughter, I will sue your son for being a hooligan!"

The person being held by Wang Chunhua was Wu Dongmei. Wang Chunhua and her husband had just come to her house and said that her son had bullied the other party's daughter and was shouting at the top of his voice, so she had to pull the man out to talk.

"Comrade, can you please stop messing around? My son is excellent in both character and study, so it is impossible for him to fall in love early. Your daughter is a student in my class. She doesn't take classes seriously and likes to bully her classmates. There is no way my son would like such a person!"

"Bah, how dare you say you don't like him? Look at your big nose and thick lips, how good can your son be?"

Wang Chunhua spat at Wu Dongmei, "If they were not dating, would my daughter say such nonsense? She even knew that your son had a mole on his back. Do you want me to make a fuss about this?"

At this point, Wang Chunhua couldn't care less. Her daughter cried and told her that she had found a boyfriend at school and his parents were very powerful. She and the old man ran over to find him.

Even if her reputation is ruined, it is better than going to labor reform, and marrying to a town is not bad either. Anyway, Wang Chunhua will not miss this opportunity.

Wu Dongmei hated it most when people said she was ugly. She took a deep breath, knowing that Wang Chunhua was not a reasonable person, and turned to look at Lin Fugui, "Brother, I'm just a junior high school teacher, not an official. What can I do?"

"Your daughter is going to labor reform, and I can't help her even if I want to!"

Lin Fugui refused to accept this. "You don't have the ability to do it, but you are a teacher, so you must know more people. And your husband is also a leader in the textile factory. You can use your connections to save my daughter. As long as you don't send her to labor reform, I don't need a penny for the bride price."

Wang Chunhua's eyes widened immediately when she heard that the bride price was not required, but this time her mind was racing. As long as the daughter can escape the disaster and marry into a wealthy family, no matter what kind of gift is needed, she can just let her help her parents' family in the future.

Wu Dongmei also widened her eyes. She had never seen such a shameless family. Lin Xiao committed a crime and had to do labor reform, but she didn't even want a daughter-in-law like this. However, the Lin family talked about it as if it was a huge benefit.

"Brother, your daughter is not good at anything. I don't even want the betrothal gift you offered her, not to mention that she has bad intentions. You guys should stop making trouble here. I can't help you if I say I can't help you." Wu Dongmei had just finished speaking when she saw her son coming from a distance. She quickly winked at her son, but her son didn't realize that something was wrong and still called out "Mom".

Seeing the real owner coming, Wang Chunhua immediately grabbed Bai Biao's arm and said, "You must be Bai Biao, I am Lin Xiao's mother, are you two dating someone?"

"Don't deny it, Lin Xiao told me that you two kissed!"

Bai Biao shook Wang Chunhua off with all his strength. "So what? She was the one who took the initiative to pursue me, and she was the one who kissed me. I just didn't reject her!"

"Listen, your son has admitted it!" Wang Chunhua was not as strong as Bai Biao, so she turned to grab Wu Dongmei, "Come here, everyone, come and see, there is a hooligan here!"

Wu Dongmei covered Wang Chunhua's mouth in panic, "Stop yelling, what on earth do you want to do?"

"I want you to save my daughter!" Wang Chunhua said.

At this point, Wu Dongmei was helpless, "I know, I will give it a try, but you are not allowed to ask for justice, or I will make your whole family pay for it!"

"Also, even if your daughter doesn't have to go to labor reform, my son won't marry your daughter." If a rural person wants to marry into their family, just dream on!

Lin Fugui thought that he could take it one step at a time and would talk to the Bai family about the marriage after his daughter was fine.

He pulled Wang Chunhua and signaled her to stop talking, and the two of them followed Wu Dongmei home.

Jiang Qiuyue didn't expect Lin Xiao to be so bold in pursuing love. Bai Biao looked fat and ugly, with bumpy skin on his face. How could Lin Xiao kiss him?

"Wang Chunhua said that Bai Biao's father is the leader of the textile factory. If they really have a relationship, shouldn't we prepare in advance?" Jiang Qiuyue went to see Lin Zhengrong.

"One of my comrades has transferred to the police station in the city. You take the children and wait for Wang Youren. I will call my comrade." Lin Zhengrong said.

Jiang Qiuyue took the child to the agreed place, and Wang Youren arrived soon.

"It's okay, you can wait a while." Wang Youren ate the cake given by Jiang Qiuyue, and sighed that Jiang Qiuyue was generous. Every time he let Jiang Qiuyue ride the tractor, she would bring him food.

When Lin Zhengrong came back after finishing the call, he saw Jiang Qiuyue and Wang Youren standing by the tractor, and the two children squatting beside them counting ants.

Even though they were both very open and honest, he still felt a little frustrated.

When he was away, were all the unmarried young men in the village so attentive to Jiang Qiuyue?

Seeing Wang Youren smiling so happily, Lin Zhengrong twisted his neck, coughed twice and said he was going home.

"dad!"

Lin Beibei ran over and held his father's hand, "Where have you been?"

The child had a lot of problems, so Lin Zhengrong said he went to make a phone call, and he asked who he was calling.

Along the way, Lin Beibei had all kinds of questions. In fact, Jiang Qiuyue also wanted to gossip a few words, but she was afraid that Lin Zhengrong would dislike her for talking too much.

It was still hot when we got home. The corn grown by Aunt Niu was ripe, and Niu Zhuangzhuang brought the corn to us.

Lin Zhengrong followed Niu Zhuangzhuang out without saying where they were going. He came back almost time for dinner.

Jiang Qiuyue made scrambled eggs and fried corn with salted meat.

Seeing Lin Zhengrong coming back, she told him to wash his hands and eat. "It's a pity that this month's meat coupons have been used up. I didn't buy meat today. Otherwise, I would have bought two big bones and cooked corn. It's especially delicious. By the way, where did you go just now?"

"The bed at home is... a little small."

Lin Zhengrong lowered his head and ate his rice. "I went to find the captain and told him that I wanted to build a bed and asked where I could get firewood. By the way, I asked someone to exchange some of this..."

He took out two meat coupons from his trouser pocket, a total of two kilograms. Today at the supply and marketing cooperative, he noticed that Jiang Qiuyue had been staring at the meat.

"It's meat coupons!" Jiang Qiuyue asked happily, "Who did you ask to exchange them? Not bad, there are actually two kilograms of meat coupons!"

"The team leader helped me to replace it. He said that there happened to be two pieces of wood in the village committee. I will carry them back tomorrow." Lin Zhengrong had already finished a bowl of rice. He had seen an old master making furniture before, so he knew making a simple bed would be no problem.

He also told the captain that someone might cause trouble in the next two days, and asked the captain not to worry about him because he had already given instructions.

When Jiang Qiuyue heard that Lin Zhengrong wanted to make the bed, she breathed a sigh of relief. It was good to have one more bed. Lin Zhengrong would have to stay at home for most of the month, and it would be awkward to sleep in the same bed all the time.

She subconsciously thought that the new bed was for Lin Zhengrong to sleep on alone, and she would still sleep on it with her two children.

The next day, when Jiang Qiuyue woke up, she heard someone talking in the yard. She saw Lin Zhengrong coming back carrying firewood, and Niu Jianshe. Before she could even say hello, she was stunned.

Lin Zhengrong was shirtless, his muscles were clearly defined, and the curves of his arms were graceful and smooth. Because he had just finished working, beads of sweat were dripping from his body.

Seeing a drop of sweat falling from Lin Zhengrong's pectoral muscle, Jiang Qiuyue swallowed her saliva helplessly. It was not until Niu Jianshe said goodbye that she reacted and waved.

Oh my God, she only knew how to work in her previous life and had never slept with a man, let alone touched a muscular man.

After work, sometimes when I see some men who are on the edge of their seats on my phone, I get addicted to them for a while.

Now there is a muscular man standing in front of her, with just the right amount of muscles, not too strong, but stronger than a thin dog.

Jiang Qiuyue’s first thought was to pinch Lin Zhengrong’s muscles.

The second thought was──I wanted to see Lin Zhengrong dancing an edge dance in front of her (blushing and shy jpg).

"Mom, Mom, why don't you pay attention to me?" Lin Beibei has called Mom several times, but Mom didn't respond to him. He stood on tiptoe and pulled Mom's hand hard, and Mom looked down at him, "Mom, what are you looking at?"

Lin Zhengrong, who was in the yard, also looked over when he heard this.

Jiang Qiuyue turned her back to Lin Zhengrong awkwardly, "Mom is looking at the sun. The weather is really nice today. I'll go cook some porridge for you guys!"

Lin Zhengrong borrowed tools such as a tape measure and a saw. The sun was not very strong in the morning, so he was still shirtless. When he heard Jiang Qiuyue say that she was looking at the sun, his thin lips curled up.

Indeed, it is a nice day today.

Jiang Qiuyue had a simple breakfast of porridge with pickled cabbage. She had originally planned to go into the city, but when she saw Lin Zhengrong working in the yard, she changed her mind.

Meat can be eaten a day later, but naked muscular men are not common. And she can enjoy it legally, since there is no one else in the yard.

After Lin Beibei had breakfast, he wanted to help his father, but his father said he didn't need to help.

Brother Zhuangzhuang came to call him to go play, but he didn't want to go. He just wanted to watch his father sawing wood.

Jiang Qiuyue was lying on a recliner to rest, with a palm-leaf fan covering her face. There was a slit in the middle of the fan, which allowed her to appreciate the beautiful scenery in the yard from time to time.

She suddenly felt that Lin Zhengrong's home leave was not too long.

In the evening, Hu Haizhi came to the door and asked Lin Zhengrong how the bed was going. Lin Zhengrong said it would take another day or two.

"You are a clumsy guy. I thought it would take you at most a day and a half. Do you need help?" Hu Haizhi looked at the wood in the yard.

Lin Zhengrong smiled and said no, he had just finished taking a shower and put on a short-sleeved shirt, "I have plenty of time, no need to bother you."

"That's right. Your family has your salary, so you don't need to go to the fields to earn work points. But you have to be careful when you go to the mountains to cut bamboo. There have been wild boars in the mountains recently. The big ones weigh as much as two hundred pounds and are very strong." Hu Haizhi gave a few instructions before leaving.

Taohua Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides. Wild boars often appear in the village, especially in autumn when the crops in the fields are ripe.

Others are afraid when they hear about wild boars, but Jiang Qiuyue feels sorry for them, "Wild boar meat is quite delicious." But she doesn't dare to go into the mountains to hunt. Loving to eat is one thing, but she also values ​​her life.

Tonight, the whole family was squeezed into one bed. After Jiang Qiuyue lay down, she tried to ask, "How about asking Brother Niu to help tomorrow? It would be quicker, right?"

Watching for a day is enough, and sleeping is more important.

"Do you want to go faster?" Lin Zhengrong asked.

"Yeah, otherwise you wouldn't be sleeping well, right?" Jiang Qiuyue looked at her son who was still moving around beside her, "Beibei is close to you, and you're hot, so it's better for you to sleep separately."

Lin Zhengrong: Is that what he meant?
