Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Checking the Account
Jiang Xi took it and looked at it. Li Wenbin wasn't a very good person, but his handwriting was quite good. Qi Yu'an imitated it very well: "It's very well written and very beautiful."
Qi Yu'an paused holding the pen, and said for no apparent reason, "Actually, my handwriting is much better than Li Wenbin's."
Jiang Xi...
Liu Zhiqiang, who had been silent the whole time, couldn't stand it anymore: "Can you guys hurry up? I'm waiting to do something big."
Jiang Xi apologized and said, "Well, let's hurry up."
Qi Yu'an said calmly, "Ignore him. He's impatient. Just follow your own pace."
Liu Zhiqiang... He was certain that there was indeed something wrong with Qi Yu'an. He had just joined the new organization and betrayed their previous small group!
After the letter was finished, Qi Yuan said, "Let's split up."
Jiang Xi hesitated a bit and confirmed again: "Comrade Qi, why don't you let me and Comrade Liu do this kind of thing." She really couldn't imagine Qi Yu'an sneaking over the wall to deliver the letter.
Qi Yu'an's dark pupils clearly reflected a hint of a smile, and his voice was much lower than usual: "Don't worry, Comrade Jiang, I can do things like this. Don't think I'm too upright, I sometimes have selfish motives."
That familiar feeling appeared again. Jiang Xi's heart beat fast, and he always felt that some idea was about to pop up.
Qi Yu'an's faint smile was tinged with amusement. "Actually, I want to say, let Zhiqiang and I handle these things. We're more convenient at climbing walls."
Jiang Xi...
Qi Yu'an seemed to think this was a good decision after he finished speaking. "Comrade Jiang, just wait here for news. We'll be back soon."
Jiang Xi didn't expect that she was just hesitating whether to let Qi Yu'an deliver the letter, but Qi Yu'an directly cancelled the qualification of delivering the letter: "I'd better go with you."
Qi Yu'an felt a little helpless. Jiang Xi seemed to often forget that she was a girl and always rushed to do the hard work.
"Well, then you go and deliver the letter to Xie Xiaoju. This family doesn't have to climb over the wall."
Jiang Xi... She was actually quite good at climbing walls, so how come in Qi Yu'an's eyes, she had inexplicably become a porcelain doll, unable to lift anything with her shoulders or hands?
The three of them quickly split up.
Jiang Xi came to Xie Xiaoju's house. She tiptoed to check the situation in the yard. It happened that Xie Xiaoju was alone in the yard.
Jiang Xi knocked on the door, and Xie Xiaoju asked, "Who is it?"
Jiang Xi did not answer but put the prepared letter on the stone steps, and then hid secretly nearby.
Xie Xiaoju opened the door and found no one there. She was about to start scolding when she looked down and saw the letter on the ground.
She looked a little nervous and shy. She picked up the letter and read the words on it: "Xiaoju, I miss you so much. Let's meet at the grain drying yard at 7 o'clock tonight."
Xie Xiaoju didn't expect Li Wenbin to ask her out. Li Wenbin often said that for her reputation, the two of them should try to meet behind the scenes. Even if they met, it would only be a brief meeting during breaks. But Li Wenbin took the initiative to ask her out now. Is it because he likes her very much?
Xie Xiaoju put the letter in her pocket, feeling sweet in her heart.
Changfeng Village is very poor. Almost every house is built with mud, and the roads are also muddy roads. They become muddy when it rains.
There is only one place in the village paved with blue bricks, which is used specifically for drying grain during the autumn harvest. The villagers call this place the grain drying ground, and people usually dry other things there as well.
At night, there are almost no people here, even children are reluctant to come here to play, because the grain drying ground is very empty. The wind is very strong at night, and you can faintly hear the howling of wolves, so most villagers will not come here at night.
Xie Xiaoju changed her clothes, braided her hair into a ponytail, and nervously came to the grain drying yard with the letter.
It was already dark, with only the moonlight providing a little brightness. The grain drying yard was deserted. Xie Xiaoju was a little scared, but thinking of Li Wenbin, she plucked up her courage and stood in a corner of the grain drying yard waiting.
Recently, Li Wenbin often sent her poems, and she would also send Li Wenbin some poems of her own in return. Every time, Li Wenbin would praise her for her excellent poetry writing and great progress.
Xie Xiaoju thought of Li Wenbin's face, and couldn't help but take out the letter and read it again, then put it in her arms carefully.
But Xie Xiaoju waited and waited but Li Wenbin did not show up. Instead, she saw another girl from the village, Zhao Xiaofen. Xie Xiaoju was surprised why Zhao Xiaofen came to the grain drying yard so late at night. Zhao Xiaofen also stopped when she saw Xie Xiaoju.
A woman's sixth sense kicked in at this moment, and an idea popped up in Xie Xiaoju's mind in a flash. Although she didn't want to believe it, Xie Xiaoju still decided to verify it.
Xie Xiaoju approached: "Zhao Xiaofen? What are you doing here in the grain drying yard so late at night?"
Zhao Xiaofen and Xie Xiaoju weren't familiar with each other, but they weren't on bad terms either. When asked, there was no reason not to answer. She said vaguely, "Can't I just come and get some fresh air?"
Xie Xiaoju's doubts deepened: "It's freezing here at night, why are you here to enjoy the breeze?"
Zhao Xiaofen raised her eyebrows and asked, "What about you? What are you doing here so late at night?"
Xie Xiaoju's first reaction was that if she had nothing to do, she would definitely not come to the grain drying factory. So, by the same token, why would Zhao Xiaofen come to the grain drying factory if she had nothing to do? And she came at this time. Xie Xiaoju knew that all this could not be a coincidence.
Xie Xiaoju's thoughts became deeper and she became more certain of her previous idea. She took out the letter and said to Zhao Xiaofen, "Do you have this thing? I came here because of this." Xie Xiaoju was cautious and did not let Zhao Xiaofen read the contents of the letter.
Zhao Xiaofen was stunned when she saw the envelope in Xie Xiaoju's hand. She looked at Xie Xiaoju again in disbelief and found that she was not joking. She also had a premonition in her heart.
Zhao Xiaofen hesitated for a moment, then pulled out an identical envelope from her pocket: "That's why I'm here too."
The words were already very clear, and there was no need to review the contents of the letter. Xie Xiaoju's head buzzed: "What's going on between you and Li Wenbin?"
Zhao Xiaofen's eyes widened. "How do you know? And what's your relationship with Li Wenbin?"
Xie Xiaoju was furious. She knew she had been deceived. "Did Li Wenbin send you flowers? And poems? And he even said he wanted to date you?"
Zhao Xiaofen was shocked: "How did you know?"
Xie Xiaoju's eyes were about to burst into flames: "Because he told me the same thing."
The two girls looked at each other, and after a long time of comparison, they realized that Li Wenbin's methods were exactly the same. He sent flowers and poems, and occasionally said some ambiguous words, making others think that he wanted to have a relationship, but in fact he just wanted to use them.
Zhao Xiaofen said fiercely, "Li Wenbin came to me that time and said I was very special. He liked me the moment he saw me, so he wrote a poem for me."
Xie Xiaoju... Li Wenbin also said these words to her. She was particularly happy for a long time because of what Li Wenbin said, but she didn't expect that this was just his trick and he could say it to anyone.
Xie Xiaoju frowned and said, "Isn't that the poem like this? You are the moon in the sky, I am the river underground, I walk around you until we are both leaning against each other."
Zhao Xiaofen…..“How did you know?”
Xie Xiaoju gritted her teeth: "Because the poem he wrote to me was like that too."
Xie Xiaoju had completely understood what was going on and couldn't help but curse, "I'm going to beat this bastard to death! I'm going to ask him how he dared to lie to me!"
Thinking of how she had written so many poems to Li Wenbin with such genuine feelings, Xie Xiaoju felt disgusted and angry, and she wished she could tear Li Wenbin to pieces.
Zhao Xiaofen was also furious: "It turns out we were all deceived. He actually lied to both sides! I still trusted him so much!"
The two girls were filled with righteous indignation when they suddenly heard two voices beside them: "Are you telling the truth?"
Xie Xiaoju and Zhao Xiaofen turned around at the same time and saw two other girls in the village, who were holding identical letters in their hands.
Xie Xiaoju was stunned. What was going on? How many people had that bastard Li Wenbin deceived?
Zhao Xiaofen raised the envelope in her hand and asked, "What's going on? You were also deceived?"
Having said that, there was no need to hide anything from each other. The girls looked at each other and told each other what Li Wenbin had done to them.
The other two girls said in unison, "Li Wenbin told me he thought I was special, so he wrote a poem for me and said he wanted to date me."
Xie Xiaoju... Zhao Xiaofen...
Xie Xiaoju felt it was absurd in her anger. Li Wenbin's routine was exactly the same, and he had deceived four people at the same time!
Xie Xiaoju could no longer hold back her temper: "Let's go to the Youth Hostel and settle the score with him! What does he think of us? He actually deceived us so easily. I will make him pay for it!"
Xie Xiaoju and Jiang Xi can become friends because they are very similar in some ways. They are both people who cannot stand being bullied. Since they have no one to rely on, they are accustomed to standing up for themselves and seeking justice for themselves when encountering problems.
So Xie Xiaoju's first reaction after being cheated was to settle the score with Li Wenbin.
Zhao Xiaofen also hurriedly said, "Let's go! Let's settle the score! I want to see what excuses Li Wenbin has!"
The other two girls also got angry at the same time: "Let's go! Let's go find that Li Wenbin and settle the score. He thought we from Dafeng Village were easy to mess with and actually tricked us."
Just as the four people were about to leave, they saw a figure in the distance.
"It's Ma Xiaomei!" Zhao Xiaofen said in surprise.
The four girls paused. They all knew Ma Xiaomei because she was very crybaby and sensitive. Any random words could make her burst into tears. Moreover, Ma Xiaomei was in poor health. It was said that she had a heart disease and would faint at the slightest stimulation.
Ma Xiaomei is also thin-skinned, so the villagers tacitly avoid her, for fear of provoking her and making her angry. If something happens, they don't want to get into trouble.
The girl was already angry enough, but she didn't expect Ma Xiaomei to come as well.
