Chapter 13 Gu Nan's Glorious Deeds
Gu Nan turned around and met Su Niannian's bright and clear eyes, which made his heart beat faster.
When Su Niannian saw Gu Nan turning around, she waved at him and smiled brightly.
It seemed to glow, attracting men's attention.
Gu Nan's eyes couldn't help but darken, he turned his head calmly without any reaction.
Su Niannian's waving hands froze for a moment, but she quickly adjusted herself.
Neither of them said much, so his reaction was normal.
Otherwise, if a woman approaches him, he will respond, wouldn't that be central air conditioning?
Su Niannian comforted herself in this way.
"Is this the new female educated youth? So pretty?" A man in his twenties who was still single couldn't help but feel his eyes light up and said in amazement after seeing Su Niannian's appearance.
"What's the use of looking good? You can tell at one glance that you are a person who can't carry anything. How many work points can you earn?" An auntie nearby heard this and looked at Su Niannian with disdain, muttered.
"How can being good-looking be useless? If I had a wife like this, I would rather keep her on the kang at home to serve me every day. I can't even let her go to the fields, so how can she earn any work points?" An old bachelor in his thirties next to my aunt smiled obscenely and accidentally said what was in his mind.
Hearing this, Gu Nan glanced over with a sharp eye.
The old bachelor suddenly shuddered and turned his head to look at Gu Nan.
It would be better if I didn't watch it, but after watching it, I felt a chill all over my body.
Not to mention what happened far away, just as winter began a year ago, two wild boars in the mountains came down from the mountains, probably because they were starving.
Several people were injured, including a villager whose stomach was ripped open by the wild boar's tusks and he almost died.
The village brigade organized strong laborers to deal with the wild boar. More than a dozen strong laborers tried for a long time but failed to catch it, and four of them were injured.
If Gu Nan hadn't appeared, holding a sickle in one hand and an axe in the other, and killed the two wild boars, who knows how big the incident would have been in the village and how many people would have suffered.
He still remembered when Gu Nan killed two wild boars weighing two or three hundred kilograms by himself, his body was covered in blood, and his face and neck were all red.
Just like the King of Hell, or a general fighting bloody battles on the battlefield.
Just with that one battle, Gu Nan's image was enough to make people in the village stay away from him.
Even though Gu Nan's family background was not good, even though his mother was in poor health and his eldest brother was disabled, no one dared to say a word to his face.
If someone talks behind his back, he won’t know about it. Even if he knows, the person gossiping won’t admit what he said.
Su Niannian couldn't hear anything that happened on Gu Nan's side, but many people around Su Niannian cast passionate glances at her.
Soon, when the village chief saw that most people had arrived, he began to assign tasks.
It is now mid-April and most of the crop seeds have been planted.
All that's left is weeding and fertilizing.
The work was not tiring at all. The strong laborers were assigned to the rice area because working there would put their feet in water, which was somewhat cold, and the mud was also relatively dirty.
The educated youth were mainly assigned to the sorghum fields, where they weeded and applied fertilizers.
There were also younger people who were assigned to the back hill to cut grass for pigs. The new female educated youth were treated relatively well and were assigned to the team cutting grass for pigs.
Su Niannian was a little disappointed. After all, if she was going to cut grass for pigs, she wouldn't be working with Gu Nan.
Gu Nan is a strong laborer...
It was one of the village chief's younger sons who leaned over to whisper something in his ear.
The village chief's eyes lit up and he glanced at Su Niannian.
"Then why don't you go to the back of the mountain too? What if there's a wild beast or something? There are women and children there, what if they're in danger?"
Li Jinbao, the youngest son of the village chief Li Guofu, smiled and agreed.
"Brother Nan, I don't think Li Jinbao's smile is funny. Yesterday, that pretty girl went to the foot of the mountain to cut grass for pigs. I think this guy wouldn't have any ideas about this?" Li Ergou, who was walking beside Gu Nan, said in a low voice.
Li Ergou's family can be considered as distant relatives of the village chief. Li Jinbao is a lazy and lustful guy who would tease girls when he has nothing to do.
When Li Ergou saw that smile, why did he feel that he hadn't held his fart well?
Gu Nan didn't say anything, but his dark eyes darkened.
Li Jinbao took the female educated youth and their half-grown children and went to the back mountain.
As I walked, I didn't know when I arrived next to Su Niannian.
"My name is Li Jinbao, my father is the village chief. You are a new educated youth, right? What's your name?" Li Jinbao kept glancing at Su Niannian as he walked.
Su Niannian felt this man's gaze on her and felt uncomfortable all over.
It was Song Zhaodi who saw it and squeezed in between Su Niannian and Li Jinbao.
Song Zhaodi is used to working and has a lot of strength.
She couldn't let Su Niannian be bullied, and if Li Jinbao did anything excessive, she wouldn't mind educating him.
"Comrade Li, please keep a distance from female comrades!" Song Zhaodi said as she walked between the two of them.
Li Jinbao glanced at Song Zhaodi and felt annoyed.
Why is this person squeezing over here and meddling in other people’s business? So annoying!
But there are still a lot of people around, and I can't make things difficult for the new educated youth.
After glaring at Song Zhaodi, he strode forward.
"Thank you." Su Niannian said to Song Zhaodi.
"What are you talking about? You are pretty and kind to me, so of course I have to protect you!"
"If you have any problems, just call me loudly. I can beat those little chickens!" While speaking, Song Zhaodi patted her shoulder, as if to tell herself not to be afraid, as long as I was there.
Su Niannian couldn't help but smile and said okay.
When we reached the foot of the mountain, the children had already started to disperse to cut grass for the pigs.
Zhao Sulan felt a little uncomfortable when she saw someone being attentive to Su Niannian.
Even if that man doesn't look very good, he is still the son of the village chief. If that man comes to curry favor with her, Zhao Sulan will definitely not refuse.
However, she would definitely not look for a partner in Kaoshan Village. She would not even look down on the son of the village chief.
Moreover, when she saw Gu Nan's clothes in the threshing ground in the morning, she knew that he was not an educated youth who went to the countryside, but a country bumpkin. Even if Gu Nan liked her, she would not like him.
Zhao Sulan's mind was quite active, but...she might not have any mirrors on her...
When they reached the foot of the mountain, Su Niannian was always not far away from Song Zhaodi. Seeing that there was no chance for Li Jinbao to get closer, he did not go over either.
Li Jinbao found a cool and comfortable spot, leaning against a wooden stake with a piece of wild grass he had picked from somewhere in his mouth, and leisurely enjoyed the cool air.
Zhao Sulan didn't dare to go any further into the mountains, and just stayed at the very outskirts, cutting grass for the pigs without taking her time.
Seeing that Li Jinbao was outside and had not entered the mountain at all, Su Niannian and Song Zhaodi did not care so much about the distance.
