When Lin Xuanjiao heard this, she was filled with questions and asked directly, "Since the child has fallen into the water, how can you still be so calm?"
The obedient ladies were also confused: "The child fell, so he fell! He fell into the water, and the pond is so deep, there is no way to pick him up!"
Lin Xuanjiao's face turned grim upon hearing these words: "That's a human life, and you're just going to ignore it? Where did that child fall? I'll go in and get him out."
The ladies were confused by what they said. "A child's life is a human life. It's really not right to go into the water for a child."
One of the women suddenly had an idea. She looked at Lin Xuanjiao with a smile and said, "Oh no! This is all a misunderstanding. The child we were talking about was a shoe, not a doll. You must be an educated youth who went to the countryside? You don't understand what we are saying."
Lin Xuanjiao, who had figured it out, blushed and felt extremely embarrassed. It was really unbelievable that she had caused such a big mistake. The dialect was really hard to understand.
She smiled apologetically at the ladies and said, "I'm so sorry! I didn't understand and got angry at you. I'm so sorry."
Several of the ladies smiled heartily and said that they were fine.
One of the ladies even said, "Girl, you mean well and are a good person. It's normal that you don't understand what we say here. You will understand after staying a while. Our language is very easy to understand."
Lin Xuanjiao smiled shyly, "At least this time I know that 'children' means shoes. Do you call children 'dolls' here?"
Several women enthusiastically explained to Lin Xuanjiao: "Yes!? Here we call them all dolls, boy dolls and girl dolls, no one is called a child."
Lin Xuanjiao nodded, thanked the ladies again, said goodbye to them, and left.
Several women looked at the direction where Lin Xuanjiao left, and sighed with emotion: "What a kind-hearted girl."
An old lady nearby heard this and said jokingly, "If you are so satisfied, why don't you ask your son Zhuzi to propose marriage and bring her home as your daughter-in-law?"
The woman being criticized quickly waved her hands and said, "What are you talking about! How could a girl from the big city like the guy I'm calling? And didn't you see the watch he's wearing? Anyway, my family can't afford a guy like that."
When they heard this, they thought of what Lin Xuanjiao was wearing just now. She was wearing a dress made of Dacron, which was almost unavailable in their village, not to mention the watch on her hand.
An old lady said with some envy, "I wonder which man this girl will end up with."
"Oh! Stop talking and do the laundry. If you keep talking, you won't have to cook."
The ladies then stopped chatting and washed clothes seriously.
Lin Xuanjiao was also pedaling hard. She was very strong, but no matter how strong she was, she couldn't keep her balance on the bike! It was all because her cousin was too enthusiastic and stuffed all the leftover meat from his family into her bike.
In addition, I bought so many things on the street today that this bicycle is packed full. Fortunately, this is an old-fashioned bicycle that can hold so many things. Otherwise, if it was a bicycle from her era, it would be impossible to put so many things on it.
There is only one main road leading to the village. Now those people are doing farm work at the entrance of the village. If the small road was not really impossible for bicycles to pass through, Lin Xuanjiao would have wanted to take the small road. In this way, she would ride the bicycle full of things in front of everyone. Without thinking, she already knew that she would definitely be the topic of conversation among people.
The Qingshan Brigade should have been busy working in the afternoon, but today was an exception. The crowd was sparse and the work was not efficient at all. Most of the people were just gathered in groups chatting.
Gu Kangnian was one of the people chatting. He really didn't expect that the third child of the Gu family was arrested just because he said it casually. Who was the background of this female educated youth who came from the countryside? Was she so capable?
Of course, he wouldn't be stupid enough to say these words out loud. If Gu Zhaoxing knew that he said them, he would definitely fight with his family. Although he had nothing to fear, they were all from the same village, and it would not look good to make enemies. Besides, he didn't want to make enemies with someone like Gu Zhaoxing. Such people had too many twists and turns in their minds. He was a straightforward person and could not defeat such a person.
Aunt Caihua next to him poked Gu Kangnian, who was lost in thought, and said, "Old man, what are you thinking about?"
Seeing everyone around him looking at him curiously, Gu Kangnian almost wanted to scold his old woman. How could he ask her what he was thinking in front of so many people? She was really stupid. No wonder their son couldn't beat someone like Gu Zhaoxing. It was all infected by his mother.
But in front of so many people, Gu Kangnian couldn't remain silent. He coughed pretentiously and said, "I think the origin of this matter should be that female educated youth."
Everyone who was listening nodded in agreement. They also thought so. Otherwise, how could the Gu family be so well off before, and suddenly something bad happen? Or was it that they were arrested by the police? No one from the Gu family came out to work this afternoon! There was no one around, so they could chat so leisurely.
Yesterday, Aunt Caihua heard her husband say that Lin Xuanjiao, the educated youth, was no ordinary person, and told her to stay away from people like her in the future. However, she still couldn't believe it when she heard it again. "That's impossible! How young is that educated youth, and yet she has such great abilities?"
Gu Kangnian shook his head: "I really can't explain it to you clearly. Anyway, don't mess with that female educated youth. If you do, I won't clean up the mess for you."
Aunt Caihua curled her lips and said, "I know, I know. You've told me many times that I will hide away when I see her in the future. It's okay!"
As soon as Gu Kangnian heard his wife's words, he knew that she didn't take it to heart. But he didn't care about her. He always trusted his wife. She was a very honest person. As long as others didn't bully her, she wouldn't provoke others. That female educated youth shouldn't be bored enough to look for her!
Gu Sanshun, who was standing nearby, nudged Gu Kangnian with his elbow and said with a sly smile, "Are you happy now? Gu Zhaoxing's family is in trouble. You're often targeted by them, and now they can't even show off their power. With a son who's been arrested by the police, it's a big question whether he can continue to be the captain."
When Gu Kangnian thought about how Gu Zhaoxing's family was targeting his own family, he became furious.
