Yu Qingqing felt that Jiang Ye was rejecting her intentionally. "Jiang Yezhi, you are not holding a grudge against me because of what happened before, are you? Okay, I admit that I shouldn't have said that about you yesterday. I apologize to you and your family. I will never say that about you again."
Jiang Ye turned his head away and said, "I'm sorry, I always hold grudges. Your apology is worthless and I won't accept it. If you want to take the bus, take it. If not, leave."
Seeing that Jiang Ye was unmoved by her persuasion, Yu Qingqing cursed him inwardly. After getting in the car, she sat with the three women, trying to stay as far away from Jiang Ye as possible. She didn't want to sit with that bastard.
Wu Zhiguo sat on the other side of the front of the ox cart, so that he could attack the ox later. Moreover, there was only a small space next to him on the ox cart. When Xu Nuannuan came later, she would definitely sit there. When the ox started to go crazy, he would take the opportunity to pretend to protect Xu Nuannuan and hug her.
Xu Nuannuan looked around and came back. There was only a small empty seat in the car. This seat was at the front of the car, very close to Jiang Ye and Wu Zhiguo, so she sat down.
She knew Wu Zhiguo's character well, so in order to distance herself from him, she could only get closer to Jiang Ye.
She measured with her eyes and found that the distance between them now was about the same as the distance between her and Jiang Ye when she came here yesterday by ox cart.
She went to Jiang Ye's house yesterday and did not see any young women or children there. So, is Jiang Ye married? She hoped he didn't mind.
After the ox cart was full of people, Jiang Ye drove the cart away.
There were three women from the village on the bus, two of them were elderly and one was in her thirties. When they saw the newly arrived educated youth, especially the pretty female ones, they naturally started to comment on them.
Xu Nuannuan naturally became the object of their criticism because she was so beautiful.
"Oh my, this little educated youth is so pretty! I've never seen such a pretty girl before."
"I think so too. Look at that little girl's pretty face. She's much prettier than Chunmei from the team leader's family. Even Chunmei looks like that and calls herself the beauty of our village. Any of these three young educated youths is prettier than her."
The woman next to her nudged her and whispered, "Be careful not to let their family hear."
"Let's not even mention Chunmei. She said she was the prettiest girl in the village, so she is. No one should deny her. But we're not blind. How can we tell if she's pretty or not? Compared to her, this young educated youth is like a fairy."
Xu Nuannuan just smiled as she listened to their praises.
But Yu Qingqing felt uncomfortable.
When they were in school, Xu Nuannuan always dominated her with her beauty. She didn't expect that in this remote place, she would still be dominated by Xu Nuannuan.
She remembered these three women. When she returned, she would go to the captain's house and tell the captain's family what they had said.
After the three women finished talking about Xu Nuannuan, they started gossiping about Jiang Ye, not because of anything else, but simply because Jiang Ye was the best-looking young man in their village.
An aunt joked with him, "Jiang Ye boy, you are still the most handsome young man in our village. When will you be able to marry a wife?"
Although Jiang Ye's family background is not good, Jiang Ye's own conditions are beyond reproach, and there are many girls who like him.
Jiang Ye's ears turned red when he heard the aunt's question: "I don't know yet."
Xu Nuannuan was just wondering whether Jiang Ye had married, but now she had the answer.
It turns out he is still a bachelor.
Then the aunt said, "Tell me about those four years you spent there. If you hadn't been tricked into working in the illegal coal mines and had found a girl to marry here, your mother would probably have a grandson by now."
Jiang Ye turned around and said, "I'm not that old now, and my mother is not in a hurry to have a grandchild."
The auntie tutted her lips. "What a pity those four years! Such a nice young man, how could he be sent to a place like that? Luckily you were lucky enough to escape. I heard that some people were tricked into going there and weren't treated like human beings. Some died there and then had to ask the coal factory for compensation."
Next, the three women started talking about the things going on in the illegal coal mines.
Nuan Nuan subconsciously glanced at Jiang Ye's fair arms. Jiang Ye was so handsome, wasn't it natural, or was it the result of working in the mines for a long time?
After all, neither Jiang Yang, Jiang's mother, nor Jiang Ting in their family has the same skin color.
She has never met Jiang Ye yet. Maybe Jiang Ye's skin color is like Jiang Ye's.
When the ox cart was halfway there, Wu Zhiguo saw that there were no vehicles or people in front or behind, and there was no village or shop in the distance, so he decided to implement his plan.
He first quietly took advantage of Xu Nuannuan's unpreparedness and moved closer to her. When no one was paying attention to him, he took out the bamboo stick hidden in his pocket and quickly stabbed it into the most vulnerable part of the cow's butt.
Because he had made preparations in advance, this time the attack was quick, accurate and ruthless, with great force. The bamboo stick pierced into the beef meat, and the cow was stimulated by the pain and suddenly went crazy. It jumped up high, shaking the car behind it.
Xu Nuannuan was sitting in the front. When the bull jumped up, she was bumped harder than the people behind. Because it happened so suddenly, she was not prepared at all and subconsciously grabbed one of Jiang Ye's arms.
"careful!"
Jiang Ye took advantage of the situation and crossed his arm. When Wu Zhiguo turned around and rushed towards Xu Nuannuan, he carried Xu Nuannuan out of the car with one hand.
She was held by Jiang Ye, her body pressed tightly against him. Jiang Ye was holding the mad old cow with one hand, so she quickly got off him and held the reins of the old cow with him.
The people sitting in the back were all terrified, and one of the aunties was thrown out of the car because she didn't hold on to the side of the car tightly.
If Jiang Ye had not held the reins tightly, the old cow would have run away with the cart, and everyone on the cart would have been thrown off, and no one would have been spared.
Wu Zhiguo's evil plan failed, and he pretended to help lead the cow.
