Chapter 143: At such an old age, he still wants to eat young grass
Xie Yunshu was slightly startled, recalling all the strange things that happened before. When he looked at Qi Man's pretty face, he understood what she was thinking. He opened his arms and embraced the little woman in his arms.
Qi Man paused, then clumsily opened her arms and wrapped them around Xie Yunshu's sturdy waist, patting the man's back and comforting him softly:
"Don't be afraid of me!"
The little head nestled gently against the man's chest, her eyelashes trembling, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
If Xie Yunshu was afraid of her and stayed away from her, she could only use tough measures to make Xie Yunshu shut up forever.
"Well, I'm not afraid."
Xie Yunshu's tone was muffled. He ran his fingertips through Qi Man's hair and whispered softly:
"I'm here, and no one will hurt you."
Although he didn't know where the little girl came from, he vaguely felt that the little girl might have suffered serious blows and injuries before, so some of her behaviors were so extreme.
There is no fear, only heartache.
The man's words were like a feather, slowly landing on Qi Man's calm heart, creating ripples and making her body stiffen.
Apart from San San, no one had ever promised her this so sincerely.
Tears flowed uncontrollably, soaking Xie Yunshu's army green shirt.
Noticing Qi Man, Xie Yunshu cautiously took half a step back, put the dish in his hand on the ground, and gently held Qi Man's face.
Qi Man's eyes were red and her nose was slightly raised, which made her look very pitiful. Xie Yunshu's heart ached unconsciously. He gently kissed the tears in the corners of Qi Man's eyes and coaxed her softly:
"Don't cry!"
Qi Man didn't like this uncontrolled state, but she had to admit that she liked this way of getting along.
Besides being touching, it is also sweet! It’s like the joy you feel after enjoying a delicious meal.
cluck~
At this moment, my stomach suddenly started to play the empty city trick.
Qi Man touched her shrunken belly, her tone somewhat aggrieved:
"I'm hungry."
"Go home and make beef noodles."
Xie Yunshu held Qi Man's hand with his other hand and carried the vegetables as they walked towards the village.
The relationship between the two had long been made public. They walked hand in hand through the fields and entered the sight of the villagers of Qingyun Village.
Some people are envious, some people are jealous.
"In broad daylight, you don't even know how to be shy, holding hands. You have no shame! It's immoral."
A gossipy old lady straightened up, stared at Qi Man and Xie Yunshu's hands, and complained to herself.
"What does it have to do with you if someone holds hands with their partner?"
Liu Chunhua, who was working nearby, instantly became unhappy. She put her hands on her hips, threw the dirt in her hands at the gossipy old lady, and started talking.
The long-tongued auntie curled her lips, rolled her eyes, and complained with disdain:
"Why are you so concerned about Qi Man? People who don't know would think she is your daughter. As an elder, what's wrong with me saying a few words? Have you ever seen a couple holding hands in broad daylight? They are obviously immoral and have led an honest child like Xiao Xie astray. In my opinion, Qi Man is exactly like her vixen mother. She only knows how to seduce men."
Liu Chunhua got even angrier when she heard this, rolled up her sleeves, and immediately retorted:
"I see that you are just a walking cesspool, and your words stink just as much as your shit. If Manman were my daughter, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!
Don't think I don't know what you are planning. Your daughter is so ugly and yet you still dream of marrying Yun Shu! You are already in your thirties, but you still want to eat young grass. How shameless.
Manman is beautiful and has received higher education abroad. Yun Shu can be considered to be marrying above his station by marrying Manman! What level are you? You just open your mouth and poop, bah! ”
She spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground, and the contempt in her eyes was even worse than that of the gossip woman, which made the gossip woman very angry.
Before he could catch his breath, the White Widow next to him attacked quickly again.
"That's right! Her daughter is an old woman in her thirties, and she's always thinking about Yun Shu. After all, Yun Shu was the son of a landlord, and he was taught the rules. Her daughter is just a toad wanting to eat swan meat, she's wishful thinking, she's jealous of Man Man because she's so pretty, and she's also seeing other people dating, they're so sweet, she can't have the grapes, so she's complaining about the sour grapes!"
The two of them sang in unison, and the long-tongued auntie's chest heaved in anger. She pointed at the White Widow and Liu Chunhua with trembling fingers, and was so angry that she couldn't even speak clearly:
“You…you guys!”
Before she could finish her words, she fainted from anger and fell in the field with a bang. There was hard soil all around her, which hurt her a lot. There was also a hoe nearby, which happened to pierce the gossip woman's hand.
"ah!"
A sharp scream resounded through half the sky, and this time she fainted from the pain.
Widow Bai and Liu Chunhua looked at each other and smiled.
Liu Chunhua stepped forward and kicked the long-tongued old lady who was lying unconscious on the ground. She curled her lips and said sarcastically:
"You can't argue with it, but you're still so mean? You deserve to be pissed off."
The White Widow also shouted in unison:
"Hurry up, someone here has fainted from heat stroke."
The villagers who heard the call dropped their hoes and rushed over here. Seeing the long-tongued old lady bleeding, the field suddenly became a mess.
Compared to the hustle and bustle in the fields, Qi Man and Xie Yunshu have already returned home.
When Mr. Qi saw that someone had returned, he quickly stood up and walked forward anxiously, looking his granddaughter up and down. Seeing that she was safe and sound, he asked about the affairs of Mr. Qi and his wife:
"How's it going? Is everything resolved?"
Qi Man was so hungry that she couldn't speak. Just as she was about to reply, Xie Yunshu spoke first:
“It’s all resolved.”
Mr. Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion:
"It's all right, it's all right!"
His eyes fell on the basket that Xie Yunshu had brought up, and he said:
"Don't we have meat and vegetables at home? Why did you buy so many vegetables?"
Xie Yunshu lifted the basket, glanced at Qi Man who was yawning from sleepiness, and explained:
"Manman wanted to eat beef noodles, so I bought some beef and flour. But we didn't have much flour at home. Where's my mom?"
While speaking, he looked around, but there was no sign of his mother.
Mr. Qi: "You said your mother-in-law, she said she was going out and would not be back for dinner, but she would be back in the evening."
His eyes fell on his granddaughter who looked listless and panting, and he said distressedly:
"Is Manman sleepy?"
Qi Man nodded her little head and responded in a daze.
"Um!"
Now he was sleepy and hungry, which made Mr. Qi very distressed:
"Then go to your room and sleep for a while. Grandpa will wake you up when the beef noodles are ready."
I must be exhausted from running around taking care of my second child's affairs.
Xie Yunshu also coaxed softly beside him: "Grandpa is right, go to sleep first, and I'll call you when the meeting is ready."
"Okay~"
Qi Man responded softly and went back to her room to catch up on her nap.
"This child~"
