Chapter 159 Farewell
Jiang Ye first went to Jiang Lan to tell her about the Qingming Festival, then asked the team leader for leave, rode his bicycle, and rushed to the county.
Buy meat, buy fruit, buy candy...
I loaded all the bags onto my bicycle before returning home.
When I came back, I happened to see everyone getting off work.
The pork belly with fat and lean parts hanging on the handlebars, weighing about ten pounds, instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Buying meat again? You really have money."
"What's wrong with having money? If you don't know how to save it, it will be gone sooner or later."
"That's right, once you're married, you have to spend every penny carefully. No matter how rich you are, you can't afford to suffer like this!"
Qin Yue looked at the people who had come to Jiang Ye yesterday with a face full of licking, but got angry at Jiang Ye when they didn't get any meat, and she was furious.
"Whether it happens or not, what does it have to do with you?"
"Besides, you guys don't have the qualifications to show off."
"I eat garlic in my mouth and spit out feces every day, but I don't mind the smell. I can smell the sour smell from far away."
Everyone blushed at what Qin Yue said. Being jealous was one thing, but saying it out loud was another.
They wanted to argue with Qin Yue, but when they saw Jiang Gun beside her, they forced themselves to hold back.
Jiang Gun is not as fierce as Jiang Ye, but he is tough. If anyone touches his wife, he will fight to the death without any consequences.
"Aunt, give me some peach cakes to take back for the children."
Jiang Ye had heard these words so many times that he didn't take them to heart, but he was glad that Qin Yue stood up.
Most importantly, Jiaojiao likes her.
If possible, Jiang Ye hopes that Qin Yue will come to his house more often to accompany Xie Jiaojiao. It’s okay now that she is not working, but after a long time, he is afraid that Xie Jiaojiao will be bored.
"Take it back." Qin Yue frowned unhappily. She was helping out, not for any benefit.
It’s just that I simply like Xie Jiaojiao, who resembles my past self!
Qin Yue acts according to her heart, but Jiang Ye is a paranoid person.
He stuffed the things into Jiang Gun's arms and rode away on his bicycle.
"Wife." Jiang Gun suddenly felt like he was holding a fireball in his arms, and looked at Qin Yue helplessly and pitifully.
"Keep it for now." She will return it to your house tomorrow.
Everyone felt even more jealous when they saw this reversal.
Yesterday, they rushed into Jiang Meng's house and found a piece of meat. It was so skinny, not even half a pound. It was not their turn to grab it, as it was taken away by the village scoundrels.
Before they could continue searching, Jiang Meng came back and waved his knife, scaring everyone so much that they dared not move.
Later, the team leader came and scolded all the troublemakers and deducted another centimeter from their points.
The eggs were lost and the hen was gone.
Everyone was so angry that they had no place to vent. After thinking about it, they felt that Jiang Ye was to blame. If he hadn't given the meat to his aunt, how could this have happened?
Just now, when I was getting off work, I saw him carrying meat again. I was so jealous that I couldn't help but say something sour.
But the peach cakes wrapped in oil paper felt like a slap in their faces, and it hurt so much.
If I had known what they were jealous of?
Everyone praised Jiang Ye to the sky.
Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now. I could only watch Qin Yue go home with a smug look on her face and twisting her waist.
Even more angry!
Not only did my heart, liver, and lungs ache, but as autumn had just begun, my cold legs also started to ache.
Jiang Ye, who had already arrived at the door, didn't know about this. If he knew, he would probably take the lead in applauding.
Jiang Ye put the dishes in the kitchen and the snacks in the main room.
When he entered the house, he met Xie Jiandang coming out of Jiang Dadao's house.
Xie Jiandang was not shy and eagerly snatched an oil-paper package from Jiang Ye's hand. When he opened it, he saw a piece of roast chicken.
His eyes lit up and he was about to pull out the chicken leg quickly, but he heard Jiang Ye's cold voice ringing in his ears.
"This is lunch."
Xie Jiandang didn't agree with the first half of the sentence, but with the second half, "Jiaojiao, you haven't eaten yet," he licked his lips and put it on the table consciously.
Jiang Ye handed Xie Jiandang a bag of peach cakes and said, "Eat this."
"Brother-in-law, where is my sister?" Xie Jiandang stuffed a piece of peach cake into his mouth and said vaguely.
Jiang Ye took Xie Jiandang to his house.
When he reached the door, Jiang Ye stopped and was about to knock, but Xie Jiandang next to him pushed the door open carelessly.
Seeing this, Jiang Ye put down his hand and followed him in.
"Sister, would you like some peach cake?"
Xie Jiaojiao didn't eat it, but took the peach cake and handed it to Xie Zixuan on the bed.
Xie Zixuan hesitated for a while, put the longevity lock next to him, took a bite of the pastry, and looked at it, as if he was afraid that it would be taken away.
Xie Jianjun's brows were tightly furrowed, and no one knew what he was thinking.
When Jiang Ye approached, he found that Xie Jiaojiao's eyes were red, as if she had been crying, but at this moment, there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't look sad.
He secretly kept this matter in mind and planned to ask about it at night when they were alone.
After a brief conversation, Jiang Ye left the space to Xie Jiaojiao and the other two again and busied himself with preparing lunch.
With Xie Jiandang around, Xie Jiaojiao and her two siblings talked about many past events, and laughter continued to be heard from the room.
Lunch was made by Jiang Dahua, and her cooking skills were as good as ever. Xie Jianjun and Xie Jiandang had two large bowls of rice, and even Xie Zixuan had two full small bowls.
However, in order to prevent Jiang Dahua from getting excited when meeting strangers, she did not sit at the table to eat. Instead, when the meal was ready, a bowl of various dishes was picked out for her and she ate in her own room.
After lunch, Jiang Ye and Xie Jiaojiao took the brothers Xie Jianjun and Xie Jiandang for a walk around the village.
Suddenly, when they talked about when Xie Jiandang would leave for the army, Xie Jiandang said eight o'clock tonight, and Xie Jiaojiao suddenly became anxious.
He insisted on dragging Xie Jiandang to the county to buy things for him, but Xie Jiandang shook his head like a rattle and said he would not go no matter what.
He said that his parents had prepared a lot of things for him long ago, and they were afraid it would be troublesome to carry them, so he left them at the guesthouse.
Xie Jianjun was a grown man, not as considerate as a woman. He acted on impulse and had no preparation. He just hugged Xie Zixuan, brought his passbook, and then came here so charmingly.
Xie Jiaojiao was a simple-minded person. Seeing the two people coming empty-handed, she didn't think too much about it. Jiang Ye, on the other hand, mistakenly thought that they had bad intentions.
Who knew it was just a misunderstanding!
At first, Xie Jiaojiao didn't understand why Xie Jiandang was so stubborn and refused to let her pay for things.
But in the evening, he borrowed Jiang Lan's bicycle and took Xie Jiandang to the train station. When the train was about to leave, he shyly took out a small flower handkerchief bag from his arms and handed it to her.
I repeatedly told her to go home and read it.
Xie Jiaojiao agreed, and when she got home and opened the box, she saw one yuan, fifty cents, one cent... a total of fifteen yuan, and some scattered bills, which were all national food coupons and oil coupons.
In an instant, tears flowed like a flood from a opened valve. Xie Jiaojiao felt angry, distressed and amused.
In their family, apart from the ten yuan pocket money she received every month, all other children had to earn their own money after they turned ten. The ways they earned money were either through good grades, rewards, or by working.
Jiandang is a greedy guy who spends almost everything he has.
But she had been in the countryside for less than a month, and this boy had saved so much.
Xie Jiaojiao felt very uncomfortable.
"Why are you crying?" Jiang Ye walked into the room.
