Gu Qinghuan and Lin Xiaomeng were sighing as they never expected that the gossipy Qian Caihua would have such a past.
The next second, Qian Caihua let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered: "Ah, damn it, you two are not working quickly, Wang Xiaohua and his friends next door have already filled up their baskets."
The two of them could only squat down and pick the sweet potatoes resignedly. However, after the last conflict, the two of them ignored each other today, each took a side, and started to work hard.
Although the autumn sun is not too scorching, it is still unbearable to work. Sweat flows down the cheeks into the neck, and the clothes on the chest and back are quickly wet.
Carrying sweet potatoes is a strenuous job. Fortunately, my body has been well conditioned by the spiritual spring water recently, so I can barely carry a basket of sweet potatoes.
After working very hard for two hours, Lin Xiaomeng noticed that many people around him were tired and stopped to drink water and rest.
I quickly said to Qian Caihua: "Auntie Caihua, shall we take a break? I brought some sweet-scented osmanthus cake, shall we eat it together?"
Gu Qinghuan thought to himself, here it comes, Lin Xiaomeng is ready to take action!
How to stop her?
With Qian Caihua's character, how could he resist taking advantage of others?
Sure enough, the next second, Qian Caihua's old face smiled like a chrysanthemum: "Huaizhi's family, you brought osmanthus cake with you when you worked? Then I'll have a taste for you!"
Lin Xiaomeng just wanted to let her drink the lucky spring water while her mouth was dry after eating the osmanthus cake.
At worst... at worst I could sacrifice my own water bottle and give Qian Caihua a sip. Anyway, I couldn't let her drink Lin Xiaomeng's water.
Gu Qinghuan was thinking this in his mind.
Lin Xiaomeng did bring some osmanthus cake, but because she was rejected last time, she didn't give any osmanthus cake to Gu Qinghuan today. She only gave one piece of osmanthus cake to Qian Caihua.
In fact, she thought about taking down both of them today, but she was afraid of unnecessary troubles, so she decided to target Qian Caihua alone.
"This sweet-scented osmanthus cake smells delicious. Thank you, Huaizhi's."
Qian Caihua took it with a smile and tasted just one piece. It was really sweet and soft.
She took out a handkerchief from her pocket and put the remaining osmanthus cake in it. She wanted to take it back to eat with her husband and son.
Lin Xiaomeng said you're welcome and started eating.
Gu Qinghuan held the kettle and took a big gulp. Xu Huaian had filled it for her when she went out in the morning. It was just boiled water from home, which was good enough to quench her thirst.
Qian Caihua saw that Lin Xiaomeng had no intention of giving Gu Qinghuan osmanthus cake, and ignored her. She wondered what the conflict between the two of them was, and wondered what was going on.
Just as she was about to ask, Gu Qinghuan suddenly handed her her water bottle and said, "Auntie Caihua, are you thirsty? Come, drink my water."
Gu Qinghuan smiled flatteringly and glared at Lin Xiaomeng deliberately.
Lin Xiaomeng thought that Gu Qinghuan was challenging him to a duel to win over Qian Caihua.
You give me osmanthus cake and I will give you water.
God knows that she gave Qian Caihua and Osmanthus Cake just to let her drink the Fortune Spring Water naturally.
This Gu Qinghuan is such a nosy person. Who wanted her to join in the fun?
"That's great. I'm feeling thirsty."
Qian Caihua was out of habit and had no habit of bringing water when working. He was really thirsty at the moment, so he took Gu Qinghuan's water bottle without hesitation and was about to drink.
"Auntie Cauliflower, drink this! This is honey water. I picked up a beehive on the mountain and got a jar of wild honey. It tastes sweet and delicious." Lin Xiaomeng said anxiously.
So, Gu Qinghuan watched helplessly as Qian Caihua stuffed the water bottle back to him, then ran straight to Lin Xiaomeng, picked up her water bottle, and gulped down the water.
Only when the water in the kettle dried up did Qian Caihua put down the kettle with a smack of his lips, and said with lingering emotion: "Huai Zhi's, I'm sorry, I drank up all your water..."
Seeing this, Lin Xiaomeng smiled more sincerely and waved her hand, saying, "It's just a little water. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I'll bring some more this afternoon."
After saying this, she glared at Gu Qinghuan with complacency.
What do you think? People prefer to drink my water, not yours.
Gu Qinghuan's face was darker than the bottom of a pot. This old woman was looking for death. She really wanted to die.
She thought she could stop Lin Xiaomeng's plan by delivering water first, but she failed because of "honey".
I forgot that people these days think that everything sweet is good.
Forget it, she had tried her best and risked being discovered to help her, but in the end she failed.
Think about it, even if she managed to escape this time, Lin Xiaomeng would come back next time, and she couldn't be there for her all the time, so maybe that was Qian Caihua's fate.
I can’t move it. I can’t move it at all.
It can’t be saved. It can’t be saved at all.
Gu Qinghuan continued to work with a sullen face, feeling a little unhappy.
Qian Caihua thought the two were just arguing with each other, so she came over and said, "Huai'an, I'll drink your water next time."
"No, no, no, you should drink other people's honey water. My water has no taste."
Gu Qinghuan looked up at Qian Caihua unhappily. A progress bar similar to Lin Xiaomeng's had appeared behind her, and now there was a 10% luck value on it.
Soon, all of these were Lin Xiaomeng's possession.
Sure enough, the next second, the number on the progress bar changed to nine.
eight.
궝.
…
Until it became zero, all her luck was sucked away by Lin Xiaomeng, and the progress bar turned black.
Qian Caihua was bored and went back to work. She didn't know that with just one thought, she had already stepped into hell.
Lin Xiaomeng's plan came true, and he worked happily from then on.
Someone in the distance shouted, "Old man, hurry home and cook!"
It was Liu Guifang's voice.
Lin Xiaomeng reluctantly stood up and said hello to Qian Caihua: "Auntie Caihua, I'll go back to cook first and come back to work early this afternoon."
It was almost lunchtime. Some had their children cook and bring them food, some went home to cook, and some brought dry food with them in the morning, sat in the fields, ate, and continued to work.
They were a group, and since Lin Xiaomeng was resting, they didn't want to talk any more.
"Okay, go ahead, Huai'an's family, are you going home?" She has two crazy kids at home, so she probably needs to go home to cook, right?
Gu Qinghuan shook his head: "I won't go back. The two children will be ready and sent to me."
We agreed this morning.
"That's great, your two children are very capable. Treat them well, and you will be rewarded in the future!"
Gu Qinghuan said nothing. She had never thought about blessings, but she just couldn't bear to see the suffering in this world.
However, judging from the morality statistics of the Hades Palace, doing good deeds will really bring blessings!
After Lin Xiaomeng left, the two of them packed up and went to wash their hands in the pond nearby.
Qian Caihua suddenly slipped and nearly fell into the pond, but fortunately Gu Qinghuan was quick to catch her.
It seems that Qian Caihua's luck has been taken away and she is beginning to have bad luck.
She didn't take it seriously and was still humming a little tune happily.
The two of them found a shade under a tree to sit down and rest, waiting for their family to bring them food.
Having never done such heavy farm work before, Gu Qinghuan's stomach had already been growling, and he felt tired and hungry.
Suddenly I remembered that I brought some persimmons this morning, so I used them to cushion my stomach and regain some energy.
She took out a persimmon and started to eat it.
Qian Caihua stared at the persimmon in her hand with greedy eyes: "Huai'an's, your persimmon looks good."
Gu Qinghuan rolled his eyes at her and had no choice but to take out one and hand it over.
Qian Caihua rubbed it on her clothes with a smile, and took a bite. It was delicious, juicy, and refreshing. She didn't know if it was because she was hungry, but she felt like she was eating a fairy peach after eating a persimmon, which made her feel like she was eating heavenly peach.
The next second, Gu Qinghuan froze in place, with a mouthful of persimmon stuck in her throat. She couldn't spit it out or swallow it, and she almost suffocated to death.
What did she see?
Black smoke began to emerge from Qian Caihua's head.
The progress bar behind her actually slowly turned red again, her fortune value returned to 1, and it was growing little by little.
