Chapter 18 I never use my knife on meaningless things
Jiang Huaichuan was called by Liu Xi to help the day before yesterday. Too many people in the village have caught colds recently. After finishing his farm work every day, he still has to work until late at night. It is really too much for him to handle it alone.
Yesterday he had gone to his uncle's house to look for Jiang Wanying, but he found out that his younger sister had gone out with Lu Yanchuan early in the morning. He was worried and wanted to chase her into the city, but was stopped by his uncle, who insisted that Lu Yanchuan was a reliable man.
He even used words like "He is the best soldier under your father, he can trust him, but you can't" to pressure him.
Jiang Huaichuan was not hostile only to Lu Yanchuan. Ever since he broke off the engagement, he felt that there was no man in the world whom he could trust enough to entrust his younger sister to.
"Hey, Third Brother, you haven't returned to the city yet. I thought you left a long time ago." Jiang Wanying took a sweet potato and a pancake from the basket and gave it to him. No wonder the aunt-in-law filled a bamboo basket with food.
Jiang Huaichuan was hungry, so he broke the cake into two pieces and took a bite. "I'll stay and help for two days, and then I'll go back to the city tomorrow."
"Have you eaten? Why are you the one delivering the meal?"
Jiang Wanying nodded. "I'm not hungry. Why can't I be the one to deliver the food? Can't I care about you?"
Jiang Huaichuan laughed innocently, "That's not what I meant."
He turned and waved to Liu Xi, "Xi, come here quickly!"
The two of them are sworn brothers with different surnames. Since Jiang Huaichuan is a few months older than Liu Xi, he is the elder brother.
Liu Xi didn't like the name 'Liu Xi' before, but after being called that so often by Jiang Huaichuan, he got used to it. When he heard someone calling him that, he withdrew his gaze from Li Beibei, adjusted his mood, and walked towards the brother and sister with a smile on his face.
Jiang Huaichuan handed him half of the pancake, "It's still hot. This is the first time Yingying brought me food, and I can give you half. You must remember how good I am to you."
Liu Xi: "Don't worry, remember, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost."
"You kid! You're looking for a beating!" Jiang Huaixing scolded with a smile, and stretched out his foot to kick him, but was dodged.
Jiang Wanying couldn't help laughing as she watched the two of them playfully playing. "Third brother, are you guys finishing work and getting ready to go home?"
Jiang Huaichuan took a bite of the cake and said, "It's time to call it a day, but there's no rush to go back. I'll take you fishing later! Let's have some meat!"
Catch fish?
Jiang Wanying had never experienced this before. She had only been reincarnated as a fish once and was nearly eaten by a blackened malevolent demon. Fortunately, she was rescued by an immortal who taught her how to transform into a human form and she became a carp spirit.
"Okay! Let's go now!"
She couldn't wait any longer. Jiang Huaichuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Don't worry, wait until the cadres over there leave, then we can go."
There aren't many fish this season, and with the heavy snow yesterday, there are even fewer. If we go there at this time, I'm sure many people will follow suit.
"Okay! I'll listen to you!"
The little sister who had always been domineering in front of her brothers suddenly became so obedient, which made Jiang Huaichuan so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He felt very happy and planned to show off to his two older brothers when they came back.
Wearing a military uniform, Lu Yanchuan stood out among a group of cadres. Due to the urgent shortage of manpower in the construction of the reservoir, he also came to lend a hand.
Xu Dehuai knew that he was an officer from the army, and insisted that he stay to discuss the follow-up matters together.
"Then let's do it this way first. It's getting late, let's all go back!" The temperature outside was so low that even talking made one feel foggy.
After Xu Dehuai met Lu Yanchuan, he left with a group of people.
"Uncle!" Jiang Wanying saw them leaving and ran towards Jiang Dongfang with a bamboo basket.
The snow on the ground here had long been trampled by many people and slowly solidified into ice, making it very slippery.
