Chapter 18: Guaguaguaguaguaguagua was able to give birth before, but later became infertile?
Brother Hai stood at the front and first called out "Brother Chuan," then glanced at Xiang Yao, who was not far away, and asked, "She's standing there, can you make sure she hears?"
The young man called Brother Chuan nodded and said calmly, "It's okay, keep your voice down."
Xiang Yao, who was sitting under the tree, was completely confused.
Not only do they stop fighting, but they even seem to have a good relationship.
Especially that Brother Hai, he was so arrogant before, but now he acts like a little brother.
Then, no one knew what they were talking about, because a few people gathered together and whispered to each other, and from time to time, they could hear words like "I think it's okay", "Leave it to Brother Chuan", "We believe in you", etc., which made Xiang Yao feel uneasy.
It was obvious that they were "plotting" something big. How could she miss such a big news!
But she couldn't just rashly get in the middle of those heads and ask, "Hey, what are you guys secretly plotting?"
Then, she saw the young man named Brother Chuan take out a roll of something from his pocket, count it out and distribute it to those people.
Xiang Yao leaned forward slightly and focused his eyes, then he could see clearly that the thick stack of money being distributed was money!
Wow, what a rich guy!
What I'm saying is, if you've given it all to your rival, can't you give her some...
Bah! What are you thinking!
Obsessed with money!
After waiting for a while and getting bored, Brother Hai's group finally left. Looking at their expressions, they all seemed very satisfied, and some were rubbing their hands, as if they were going to do something big.
Xiang Yao thought, they must be plotting something big.
It’s still a big thing related to money.
Haha, man.
Why don't you continue with the passionate love triangle now?
Does money taste better than love?
Um, should she also inquire and see if she can participate?
As long as it's not a crime, she can do anything...
"Come up."
The bicycle stopped by the side and Xiang Yao sat on it as he said.
Perhaps the driver didn't want to be hit and thrown on his back again and again, so the car went smoothly all the way without any major bumps.
But Xiang Yao's heart was not calm at all.
She really wanted to know what these people were discussing just now. If she couldn't figure it out, she felt like she had missed the jackpot in the lottery.
"Ahem," Xiang Yao cleared his throat, deciding not to embarrass himself. "Um, Brother Chuan?"
The young man said "Hmm?", obviously accepting the title.
"Why didn't you guys fight just now?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Xiang Yao wanted to slap himself.
How could such a rotten mouth say what was really in his heart! How could you ask such a question?
Chuan Ge: ...
Perhaps because he was speechless, Brother Chuan didn't say anything.
Xiang Yao gently poked the white shirt that was blown up by the wind, and flung his embarrassment into the wind.
"I happened to see you fighting the day before yesterday, and I thought you guys were on bad terms. I was also, uh, shocked."
Isn't it worth being shocked and showing respect that rivals in love can become friends?
Brother Chuan paused, then explained, "It was a misunderstanding a few days ago. I have nothing to do with his girlfriend. It's all right now that we've made it clear."
Xiang Yao blinked and thought, it’s not “it would be fine if it was explained clearly”, it’s probably “it would be fine if we won the fight”.
"So, were you planning to do something bad just now?" Xiang Yao probed.
"No." It was concise and to the point.
Xiang Yao puffed out his cheeks. For a moment, he didn't know whether he was naturally so quiet or if he was being so quiet on purpose.
Oh, forget it. If I can’t eat a whole melon, I won’t eat it.
She gave up.
Furthermore, when others gathered together to discuss something and didn't bring a stranger like her along, it was obvious that they didn't want her to participate, so it was not convenient for her to ask questions.
He was just kind-hearted and willing to give her a ride, but he was not a prisoner who needed to be interrogated by her.
This guy doesn't seem to have a good temper. What if he gets angry and leaves her on the side of the road?
Let’s not dwell on this topic anymore.
After a moment's silence, Xiang Yao remembered what he had wanted to ask at first. After some deliberation, he asked, "By the way, do you know if there's any private agricultural and sideline product trading market in our county?"
Talking about the black market so openly doesn't seem like a good thing.
Fortunately, Brother Chuan understood what she meant and said, "Yes, but things have been a bit tense lately. Do you want to buy something?"
Xiang Yao still wasn't sure who this Brother Chuan was, and of course he couldn't say he wanted to sell anything. He just smiled, nodded, and said, "Yeah, I'd like to take some time to go take a look and buy something."
Brother Chuan said "hmm" and stopped talking.
Xiang Yao secretly complained that this person was really calculating. He played it once and then moved it again. He had no choice but to continue asking, "Do you know where this market is?"
Brother Chuan didn't hide it: "This black market in the county town is not always fixed. The latest one is in a small alley on the other side of Zaoshi Road."
Xiang Yao got the answer and smiled, even his voice was filled with joy: "Yeah, I know, thank you, Brother Chuan!"
Brother Chuan said "hmm" again: "It's okay."
Xiang Yao now felt that his relationship with the other party was not as awkward as it was at the beginning, so he opened the conversation: "Brother Chuan, are you from Xiangjiawan too? Why haven't I seen you before?"
Chuan Ge: “Yeah.”
The latter question was skipped directly.
Xiang Yao didn't mind. She went to the same place every day and didn't really pay attention to anyone else. "What about Brother Hai and the others?"
Chuan Ge: "From another team."
Xiang Yao understood that perhaps those people were not all from the same team, and this person didn't want to explain it too much, so he just said it in such a general way.
I didn't know what to ask anymore, and we were silent all the way.
When they reached the fork in the road in front of Xiangjiawan, they only needed to turn a corner to reach the destination, so the young man let Xiang Yao down.
He glanced at Xiang Yao's legs, judging that it was probably not a big problem, and said, "You can walk the rest of the way by yourself."
Xiang Yao nodded: "Okay, thank you so much today, Brother Chuan."
The young man said "It's okay", stepped on the pedal, and left like a fly.
After watching the other person's back gradually disappear, Xiang Yao felt his own feet and found that it didn't hurt so much. He tried to use a little strength and limped towards the old Xiang's house.
Halfway through the journey, Xiang Yao slapped his thigh, then he remembered that he had borrowed someone's car and forgot to give something in return...
Forget it, she didn't know how far she had gone. It was too late for her to regret now. They were in the same place anyway. She would talk about it next time they met.
Xiang Yao did not go back home directly, but found a remote and deserted forest nearby, sat down cross-legged, and took out her pottery rice.
If she got home now, Zhang Juhua would definitely not leave any food for her. The old lady was hoping that she would come back later so that she would not have to eat a meal.
Hehe, grandma is still the best. Look, it’s a big portion of rice wrapped in fresh lotus leaves and topped with sugar.
Unable to find chopsticks or spoon at this moment, Xiang Yao held the lotus leaf and put his head close to it to start chewing.
After such a long time, the rice still has some residual warmth, neither hot nor cold, which makes it the best time to eat it.
After taking a big bite, you can instantly feel the sticky and chewy texture of glutinous rice, which is very satisfying.
When you take a bite, you can even taste the sweetness of sugar, which shows that Mrs. Huang really put some money into making this meal.
Xiang Yao was so immersed in the wonderful taste of the Tao rice that he couldn't help himself. He took one bite after another and soon made a big hole in the whole piece of rice.
Just as I was about to rewrap the rest and save it for a midnight snack, I heard some rustling sounds coming from the other side of the woods.
By the time Xiang Yao was chewing the glutinous rice, it was already completely dark. Most families had already finished their dinner and it was the right time for them to go out to enjoy the cool air and chat with familiar members.
So, it doesn’t seem uncommon to see people in the woods?
Xiang Yao thought so, but her gossipy instinct made her maintain her original posture and she did not stand up suddenly and make any noise.
"You think we won't be discovered? I always feel like this is a little too close to the road..."
"Well, what are you afraid of? Er Gouzi's house, the closest to your team, is quite far away from here. It's dark now, and there won't be anyone there."
"Oh, let go, let go! What are you in such a hurry for~"
"Your man finally got out, do you think I should be anxious, huh?"
"Huh, what do you mean by my man? Didn't you come to see me while your wife is at her parents' house tonight?"
…
The coquettish female voice and the ambiguous male voice intertwined, mixed with rapid and disordered breathing, which suddenly ignited the fire in the forest. The sticky atmosphere made Xiang Yao feel hot in an instant, and he felt his whole face was burning.
No way!
What a coincidence she had, she actually ran into a pair of wild mandarin ducks!
Or the kind that has a family!
Wow! A real scene of cheating!
Xiang Yao listened to the slurping sound and felt like he was listening to the sound of fingernails scratching glass. He got goosebumps all over his body and couldn't help but grimace.
She was practically trapped here at the moment. She had to listen to this live porn show no matter what!
Hey, what is going on?
Xiang Yao thought quietly, catching someone having an affair should be a huge news, right?
I can endure the blushing for a while and gain some time to enter the melon field, that's fine...
Perhaps due to limited time, the two of them didn't seem to do anything real. After kissing for a while, they heard the woman's sweet voice complaining -
"My husband has been beating Guoqiang even harder lately. Guoqiang's body is covered in bruises and there's no healthy area left. I'm so worried."
"There's nothing to worry about. It's okay to beat a boy a couple of times. As long as he doesn't get hurt, it's not a big deal."
A big exclamation mark popped up in Xiang Yao's head.
It turns out that they are not just wild mandarin ducks, but also confidants who can confide in each other...
Look, while having an affair, they are also chatting about family matters.
She shook her head, feeling it was ridiculous and sad for the kid named Guoqiang.
The woman said angrily, "That's easy for you to say. I'm just afraid that Guoqiang will get hurt. Sometimes, he can be really ruthless. I'm really scared. Every time I hide in the house and don't dare to watch, for fear that he'll beat me up and take me with him."
Xiang Yao frowned and felt nauseous.
Aren’t you a mother? When your child is beaten, shouldn’t you stand up and stop it?
She just says she's scared but doesn't show any action. Is she still a woman?
What kind of people are in this family?
The man didn't seem to care much about it. He said lightly, "What are you afraid of? Who doesn't beat their children? Haha, he can't have children, and he'll still have to rely on Guoqiang when he's old. He knows it in his heart! He won't kill him."
Xiang Yao widened his eyes.
What what?
The woman's husband beat the child, and the lover said that the woman's husband was infertile. Then where did the beaten child come from?
She was able to give birth before, but became infertile later?
Since she couldn’t have children before, was this child adopted?
I couldn’t have children before, this child is...
Xiang Yao felt that he was about to touch the truth.
