Chapter 12 Idiot
He was handsome and there were many people in the village who liked him. However, they were often too shy to even get close to him and would just secretly call a matchmaker over. No one would hold his hand like her after just a few meetings!
You even said you don’t like to eat them, but who doesn’t like to eat these rare foods?
In order to give him food, he could even make up such a lie.
If I accept it, won't Shen Xiaoyue misunderstand that I have accepted her feelings?
Lu Ping'an felt that the thing in his hand was very hot, and he couldn't be corrupted by these sugar-coated bullets.
“I don’t want to eat.” Lu Ping’an’s face was full of rejection, as if these were not food, but his innocence that was at risk.
"Okay, if you don't want to, I'll go tell Secretary Lu tomorrow that you held my hand and don't want to take responsibility."
Shen Xiaoyue didn't believe that she couldn't cure him.
Lu Ping'an's eyes widened. He had never seen such a hateful woman. Not only did she want to do this and that to him, she also threatened him.
It's not like people will believe this kind of thing just by telling it. If that were the case, many people would be slandered and dragged out to be shot. However, Secretary Lu would definitely reward Lu Ping'an with a beating.
"Okay, I'm kidding. It was me who wanted to hold your hand and give you food. Just think of it as me exchanging a roasted rabbit for you, okay?"
"Lu Ping'an, I haven't eaten hot meat for a long, long time. It will take a long time before the educated youth camp slaughters the pigs."
Chen Xiaoyue became excited when talking about meat, and the light in her eyes was brighter than the stars.
Lu Ping'an felt that Shen Xiaoyue must be the reincarnation of a fox spirit, otherwise how could he be coaxed into a daze? He agreed to her going to the back mountain to roast a rabbit after work tomorrow, and even took the food home directly.
No, Lu Ping'an didn't understand, how did Shen Xiaoyue know that he often went to the back mountain to catch rabbits to eat?
"Ping An, what are you holding?"
The person who spoke was Lu Ping'an's second brother Lu Yong.
Others think that Lu Ping'an is idle and does not do any real work, but the Lu family sincerely thinks that Lu Ping'an is the smartest person in the family and always has some way to make money.
He would occasionally go to the back mountain to catch some wild goods and bring them home, or take them out to exchange for money, because the Lu family had no shortage of food. Lu Ping'an didn't go out very often, and no one knew what he did specifically, but he made a lot of money.
Wu Qingyun also glanced at Lu Pingan.
Lu Ping'an's heart tightened. He couldn't let his mother find out that a female educated youth was interested in him.
He immediately waved his hands and said, "Nothing, just some goods that I am going to sell."
The Lu family didn't think much of it, they just thought that the goods were in short supply this time and it was always better to be cautious.
…
The next day, when it was almost time to get off work, Lu Ping'an was still lying on the bed with his legs propped up.
He decided that he would never go to see her again today.
So what if he agreed? There were so many things that Lu Ping'an promised others but didn't do. What else could she do to him?
Doesn't he believe that Shen Xiaoyue can continue to stick to his cold butt?
They were not suitable for each other, and he would make her realize this fact sooner or later.
Lu Ping'an lay in bed trying to fall asleep, but he tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, and ruffled his hair in annoyance.
She won’t cry, will she?
Definitely not. He had said even more unpleasant things before, but Shen Xiaoyue still smiled. Now he was just standing her up.
After tossing and turning for a few times, Lu Ping'an sat up from the bed and took a look at the sky.
It gets dark late in midsummer, but the sun is still very bright at sunset. The foot of the back mountain is not too far, so there is no danger.
Besides, if she didn't see him after waiting for a while, she would leave on her own instead of standing there stupidly.
No way?
Should I?
That shouldn’t be the case, right?
Fuck! Lu Pingan rarely felt like swearing and rushed out of the house in annoyance.
Behind the mountain.
As soon as Shen Xiaoyue got off work, she headed towards the back mountain. A familiar educated youth invited her to eat, but she said she was not very hungry.
When she arrived, she didn't see anyone, but Shen Xiaoyue didn't care. She walked inside and carefully identified the mushrooms on the ground.
She had learned when she was in school that colorful mushrooms are poisonous, and the prettier they are, the more toxic they are. She avoided the brightly colored mushrooms, searched according to her memory, and soon picked a small basket of them.
Shen Xiaoyue wanted Lu Ping'an to make her some mushroom soup. She hadn't eaten it for a long time and she was a little greedy, but she didn't know if Lu Ping'an could make soup now.
Even though it tasted bad, she endured it to give him face.
But after picking mushrooms and returning to the foot of the mountain, I still didn’t see Lu Pingan.
Thinking of his reluctance, Shen Xiaoyue decided to wait for him for a while. If he stood her up, she would remember it severely and bring up the past with him every day to annoy him to death.
Just when Shen Xiaoyue was getting angry and was about to go back to get the notebook to record the accounts, she saw a tall figure running towards her.
Lu Ping'an was panting, a big drop of sweat dripped down his forehead, and he supported his thighs with his hands, looking exhausted.
"Are you stupid? It's almost dark. What are you waiting for here?"
"If I hadn't come, it would have been very dangerous for you to be here alone, don't you know?"
God knows how complicated his mood was when he saw Shen Xiaoyue still standing here.
"Then you won't come?"
Lu Pingan paused, gritted his teeth and said, “Of course I will!”
Shen Xiaoyue waved her hand nonchalantly and said casually, “Then let’s talk about it when you don’t come next time.”
Lu Pingan: …………
There won’t be a next time!
It was obviously Lu Ping'an who stood him up, but he was sulking and set up a rabbit trap by himself.
Shen Xiaoyue sat on the stone, supporting her face with her hands, watching him busy.
There were a lot of rabbits in this area, and soon a rabbit came hopping towards this side.
The two men couldn't help but hold their breath and stopped the action of making a fire. They didn't dare to breathe loudly until the rabbit jumped into the trap.
"So fat..."
Lu Pingan grabbed the rabbit's ears, smiled triumphantly when he heard her words, and didn't care whether he was angry or not, and shook it in front of Shen Xiaoyue as if showing off.
"That's right, it doesn't matter who caught it."
"Yeah, I knew you were the best."
The girl's eyes sparkled and she nodded in agreement, not sparing her praise at all.
Lu Pingan suspected that he was too angry, otherwise why did his face feel so hot?
The rabbit hair was completely plucked off and put aside. Lu Ping'an knew a lot of people in the county and knew that someone would buy this and could make a lot of money.
He skewered the remaining rabbit meat onto the wood he had cut in advance, placed it over the fire and began to roast it.
Lu Ping'an noticed the basket of mushrooms next to Shen Xiaoyue. Thinking of how she disliked the food yesterday because it was not hot, he was silent for a moment and said awkwardly, "Would you like some?"
"Um?"
Shen Xiaoyue was concentrating on watching Lu Ping'an roasting a rabbit. The smoke from the fireworks had some black dust on Lu Ping'an's face, making him look a little disheveled. He wiped his face with his hand nonchalantly, and he inexplicably turned from a delicate flower into a ferocious carnivorous plant. He was so handsome that she felt a little weak in the knees.
