Lin Dongfang and Li Guang both stared straight at him, making him shudder.
"Did I ask the wrong question? I just saw that you know a lot about her, so,"
Li Guang was considered a veteran of the educated youth movement and was quite close to Lin Dongfang. He knew a bit about the relationship between Jian Dan and the Lin family. Seeing the gossipy looks on the faces of the people around him, he guessed that even if they knew, it was only a little bit, hearsay, and not the complete story. He immediately straightened his back a bit more.
He knows the most, which is something no one else can match. He can't let people make wild guesses or fabricate stories.
She got up, went over, and put her arm around Chen Heping's neck.
"Come on, let me tell you, I know this..."
When Jian Dan returned after circling around the area, she noticed several people looking at her strangely. She carefully examined herself to make sure there was nothing odd about her. Seeing that Lin Dongfang and Li Guang didn't say anything, she figured it was nothing serious and put the strange feeling out of her mind.
"Are you rested enough? Let's go!"
Back in the village, it was already noon.
The dogs have run off somewhere to run wild again. Anyway, they won't hurt anyone for no reason and they are capable of protecting themselves, so Jian doesn't really keep an eye on them. They are always restricted in the village, so they probably ran up to the mountains again.
Simple isn't worried. They can come back whenever they want. If they come back, she'll give them some food. If they don't come back, they can take care of themselves. Sometimes they even bring her a little surprise. Actually, she's gotten used to it.
It's this dog of hers. She originally kept it to guard the house, but now it doesn't guard the house at all and runs around everywhere all day, living more freely than she does. If you think about it carefully, it's quite heartbreaking.
They're all old men!
The house hadn't been lived in for several days, so I wiped everything down.
The seeds planted in the backyard a few days ago have already begun to sprout. She quickly opened the small shed, as there were still some seedlings that hadn't been transplanted yet. If she delayed any longer, they would really grow up.
"How much is left? I didn't know you hadn't finished planting. Otherwise, I would have come over in the next few days and planted it for you."
She had just lifted the awning when Tan Yajun came over and immediately reached out to help her stretch out the plastic sheeting.
"Just withdraw directly?"
"Take it down, and dismantle this little shed as well. We'll move it all out in a bit."
"Yeah, it's time. You're back at just the right time, didn't you know you had to go to work tomorrow?"
"Haha, well, you see, I, a fine young man with a bright future, can't shirk my work."
Tanya-Jun laughed so hard she almost fell over, then she remembered...
"Speaking of shirking work, I just remembered your ex-fiancé,"
Jian Dan had little contact with Lin Jianshe and didn't have any particular feelings towards him, but she still frowned slightly, showing considerable dislike at being associated with him.
"He's only been here a few days, hasn't even started work yet, what kind of mischief has he gotten himself into?"
Tanya Jun's face was full of amusement at watching the spectacle.
"Well, the day before yesterday, Ling Weidong and a few others hunted two pheasants on the mountain. He thought we'd all eat them together, so he got his bowls and chopsticks early and sat down at the table, acting like a king. But then…"
He shrugged, clearly disappointed.
Jian Dan also felt that this person seemed to have some problems.
"No, didn't they all start their own groups? Why would he have such a far-fetched idea?"
"Right, right? That's what I said to Wei Shujuan and Su Hong too. Do you know what he said?"
Tanya cleared her throat and began to speak earnestly.
“We, the educated youth, are a whole, and we should share the good times and the bad. What you are doing is selfishness. You are undermining the unity of the educated youth and exacerbating the contradictions among the people. You have been corrupted by capitalist hedonism. Your behavior should be strongly condemned.”
"He thought he would get the approval of the educated youth, but in the educated youth compound, Ling Weidong is now the one with the highest combat power. The three of them are either working or going up the mountain every day, and they are not enthusiastic towards anyone. They are all afraid of him."
Besides, the small prey belongs to him; it's an unwritten rule in the village. Everyone knows that, and nobody makes such a big deal out of it like him.
They were also envious, but who hasn't eaten it before?
If we really follow his lead, wouldn't that be contradicting ourselves? And then would we really stop eating meat altogether?
All year round, this is all the food we have. We just have to go up the mountain to catch a pheasant or something to satisfy our cravings.
Speechless. Isn't this person just the kind who says "sour grapes" because they can't have them?
"He didn't say he was going to report it or anything?"
Tan Yajun looked at him with bright, sparkling eyes.
“He really did say that. Ling Weidong said back then, ‘I’ll wait for you here. If you don’t go, you’re a coward.’”
In the end, he was just bluffing.
However, he was furious that everyone looked down on him, saying that he could also catch wild chickens and show them.
I just heard Wei Shujuan say that it seems she really did go up the mountain yesterday and hasn't come back yet.
Then he asked a simple, gossipy question.
"Hey, don't you think he looks like someone who would hunt?"
With a slight frown, she recalled that the original owner didn't have many memories of her fiancé, Lin Jianshe.
Although they were engaged, Jian Dan was young at the time, and Su Wenqing had raised her to be soft-hearted, introverted, and quiet. When she met Lin Jianshe, she was always bullied. Lin Jianshe would swindle her money, tickets, or other valuables, and she didn't know how to fight back.
Just thinking about how stupid the original owner of this body was makes Jian Dan's teeth ache.
"He probably wouldn't. He's spoiled by his parents. Hunting? If he encounters a wild boar and doesn't get hunted, it's just luck."
