After working all day on the farm, I get home and feel like falling asleep the moment I lie down. Who would have the heart to go fishing?
What's more, there are not many fish in the Qing River, so it is common to be fruitless.
The enthusiasm soon dissipated, but Xiao Jiahua remained calm and went out with his fishing rod every now and then.
Although Xiao Shitou is young, he is very patient. When Xiao Jiahua is fishing, he will sit quietly beside him and play in the mud.
Xiao Jiahua was afraid that he would be bored and have difficulty learning to speak, so he occasionally sent him to Aunt Qin's house so that he could play happily with Yaya.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is in three days. In order to give the children a snack, Xiao Jiahua went to the river again.
She sat on a low rock and meditated intently for a while before casting away the fishing rod.
I changed the fish hooks several times and caught seven or eight fish in the morning.
Xiao Jiahua rummaged through the fish baskets and threw the small fish back into the river to protect the ecosystem.
Overall, it was another fruitful day.
She was about to call it a day, but when she turned around she found Zhao Yong standing blankly beside the willow tree, staring at her for an unknown amount of time.
"Brother Zhao Yong?"
He was wearing a brand new green military uniform. Xiao Jiahua couldn't help wondering, "Has your application for enlistment been approved?"
Zhao Yong nodded, but there was not much joy on his face. "Xiaoxiao, in two days, I will leave Qinghe Village and go to the Northern Military Region."
"Congratulations." Xiao Jiahua deliberately acted distant.
There are some rumors in the village, but Xiao Jiahua doesn't care.
Now, since he has taken on the responsibility of taking care of Dabao and Shitou, he must avoid suspicion at all times.
When he raised his foot to leave, someone grabbed his arm, "Zhao Yong?" Xiao Jiahua frowned.
Zhao Yong had a thousand words in his heart, but he was afraid that he would never be able to say them after he left.
So, impulsively, he came to Qing River to find her.
She looked so calm and beautiful while fishing, as if nothing in the world caught her attention and could not touch her heart.
Sister Xiao Jiahua is beautiful and good at studying. Zhao Yong always feels that she is distant from the people in the village.
Now, she has stayed in the village after getting married, but she has become even more out of reach.
"Xiaoxiao, I like you! Believe it or not, you're the only person I want to date."
It took Zhao Yong almost ten thousand times of courage to make a simple confession.
Xiao Jiahua was stunned, then smiled calmly.
In her previous life, she had been surrounded by many outstanding suitors, and she had had some flirtatious encounters with them a few times, but no one could truly touch her heart and make her want to get married.
When dealing with people he doesn't like, Xiao Jiahua is also very decisive.
She looked into his eyes.
"Zhao Yong, since you like me, then answer me three questions. First, why do you have to wait until I get married to tell you this?"
Zhao Yong's face was filled with pain. "For the past two years, I have been studying at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers School. I wanted to ask someone to propose marriage to you after I graduated. I didn't expect that your brother died, so they found you a... live-in son-in-law."
Knowing that her husband was a soldier, she also wanted to become an excellent person like him.
However, according to the temperament of the village chief Zhao Fuda, he would never agree to his own son marrying into the wife's family, let alone raising someone else's child.
Xiao Jiahua nodded, "The first question is, you are going to join the army, and my husband is also a soldier. Are you willing to give up joining the army, abandon all honor, and go far away with me to accept punishment and be ruined?"
“Xiaoxiao! How can this be possible…” Zhao Yong widened his eyes.
He was shocked, panicked and dodged.
Obviously, he and his family would not allow him to do this.
He dared not.
"Now that you have the answer, there is no need to ask the last question."
He would not go beyond the vulgarity and love her unreservedly.
Zhao Yong hurriedly explained: "Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry. I wanted to say that if Bai Zhizhi treats you badly in the future, I will..."
Xiao Jiahua interrupted him coldly: "Zhao Yong, even if you are willing, I will not be with you, because I don't have any feelings for you."
"From now on, if you can sort out your feelings, you will still be Brother Zhao Yong from my village. If not, please don't call me by my name anymore."
Zhao Yong felt as if he had been hit on the head. It was painful, but it also woke him up.
"Xiaoxiao, I'm sorry, I won't say these words again." He said with difficulty.
"Brother Zhao Yong, I wish you a safe journey."
Xiao Jiahua picked up the fish basket and walked out of the bushes without hesitation.
After taking two steps, I saw Cheng Chunxia running towards me along the river, panting.
"Sister Chunxia, what happened?" Xiao Jiahua asked from a distance.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you still thinking about fishing?"
Cheng Chunxia wiped the sweat from her face and slapped her thigh anxiously.
"I heard from the educated youths that your Dabao had a fight with the school staff! Chen Zhiqing even wanted to expel Dabao!"
"You mean Chen Manling?"
Xiao Jiahua's expression changed and he ran quickly towards Gengdu Primary School.
