The autumn harvest is coming soon, and there is not much work to do in the fields. Yu Jingjing is catching pests for the cotton today, and Lu Yunxiao is working with her.
Yu Jingjing was afraid that it would delay Lu Yunxiao's work for the Lu family, "Comrade Lu, if you keep helping me with work, will it delay your family's work?"
"No, my family never planned to use me to earn work points. My mother has been ill for many years and has suffered for many years. You treated her and relieved her pain. She is in a much better mood now. Compared to what you have done for our family, my work is nothing."
Yu Jingjing didn't say anything else. Compared to her working alone in the field, Lu Yunxiao accompanying her could help her relieve her boredom.
Probably because the two people were too "close", more and more people began to suspect that they were dating.
Guan the matchmaker came to propose marriage to Lu Yunxiao a while ago, but the Lu family said that Lu Yunxiao didn't want to get married, and he got together with the educated youth so soon. If Kuihua knew about it, she would be so sad.
She was so angry that she went straight to the field to question Lu Yunxiao.
"Lu family second boy, let me ask you, are you and this female educated youth dating?"
"No." Yu Jingjing denied it immediately. "We are comrades and good friends. It's not what you think."
“Good friends?” Matchmaker Guan was puzzled. How could there be such a simple couple who just wanted to be good friends? Besides, they are all handsome men and beautiful women.
But if they are not just friends, why don't they dare to admit it?
“Forget it, we’re just good friends.” Since she had seen Lu Yunxiao in person, she naturally asked him about Sunflower: “Xiao Lu, since you’re back, come meet my niece Sunflower. I tell you, my niece is beautiful and capable…”
"Aunt, I'm not looking for a wife, so you don't have to tell me." He was looking for the one in front of him.
"You haven't found a wife yet?"
"Yes, I won't."
Yu Jingjing was afraid that she would not be able to convince the matchmaker and would be pressed by the matchmaker, so she said, "He has pledged his whole life to the country and will never find a wife. His wife is the uniform he wore in the army and his gun."
"Ah? Is that true? A grown man never finds a wife in his whole life. I wonder if you can hold on. I don't believe you can control yourself and not touch a woman in your whole life?"
Matchmaker Guan muttered something and left with her big butt twisted.
The two of them finished Yu Jingjing's day's work in just the morning. When Yu Jingjing returned to the educated youth point, she told Zhao Yuan about the move.
"Yuanyuan, I've moved out. I found a house outside that was left behind by the landlord."
Before she even told him that the house was haunted, Zhao Yuan was already worried about her.
"Jingjing, I've heard of that yard too. Listen to me, don't live there. It's unlucky to live there. I heard from the old lady over here in the fields that eight people from the landlord's family hanged themselves there. Oh, it's really scary."
Yu Jingjing held Zhao Yuan's hand and said, "Yuanyuan, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I am not afraid."
"Jingjing, think carefully. You are alone outside. What if someone breaks in? You should know what I mean. There is no shortage of hooligans in this village."
"I know. Don't forget, I've practiced martial arts, so I'm not afraid of them."
Zhao Yuan had nothing more to say: "Well, Jingjing, you must take good care of yourself and protect yourself."
"Um."
The two hugged each other, and at this moment, Yu Jingjing was reluctant to leave this good sister.
Yu Jingjing told Chen Wei about moving out, and the other educated youth also knew about it. Chen Mingxu ran over and said, "Jingjing, can I talk to you alone for a few minutes?"
They came to the foot of the wall, and others could only see them but could not hear them speak.
Chen Mingxu spoke first and asked, "Jingjing, you and that gay man, are you dating?"
"No." Yu Jingjing answered his question very sincerely.
"But, you can accept the things and help he gives you, why can't you accept mine?"
Yu Jingjing smiled: "Comrade Chen Mingxu, it seems that you think that ordinary men and women only have material and other things when they develop feelings for each other, or you think that he will give me things and help me kill rabbits because he has some intentions towards me. This is exactly the opposite.
Because I treated his mother's illness these days, his family wanted to repay me. The reason why I am willing to be with him is because he is open and honest with me. We can be very good friends, even "brothers" who can talk about anything. ”
"Friends and brothers?" Chen Mingxu didn't quite understand: "A man and a woman are together, don't you suspect that he has that kind of thoughts about you?"
"No." Yu Jingjing was very sure: "He is a person who only cares about his career and ambitions. His family forced him to get married, but he refused. I am the same as her. I will not consider the love between young people. I think we can be good brothers for life."
Chen Mingxu was speechless. In front of their sincere and pure friendship, he seemed so dirty.
Lu Family
As soon as Lu Yunxiao finished his meal, he asked the team leader for the key to the landlord's old house.
"Yunxiao, do you want to help Yu Zhiqing with his work? It's still early, take a rest at home before you go."
"It's the same if I rest there."
"It's a mess in there. There's no place to sit or lie down. How can we rest?" The captain said this and still gave the key to Lu Yunxiao.
Old Lady Lu shouted, "I'll go over there when I have time."
I haven't chatted with that girl for a long time.
Lu Yunxiao took the key and came to the gate of the landlord's house. He opened the door and saw that the whole yard was overgrown with weeds and looked desolate.
He brought a sickle and started by weeding the yard.
When Yu Jingjing came, he had already removed half of the weeds in the yard.
"When did you come?" Yu Jingjing looked at the weeds that had been removed: "We have done so much work."
"I was bored at home, so I came here early."
Yu Jingjing took out a big red apple from her bag and handed it to him: "Eat an apple and take a rest."
Lu Yunxiao took the apple. The apple was not only red and big, but also juicy. When he took a bite, he found it crispy and very delicious.
"This apple is better than any I've ever eaten."
"Really? Then I must have bought the right thing." The things produced in her space are naturally of top quality.
While 녊 was eating an apple, a big head popped in from the door.
"Hey, there are ghosts. There are ghosts in here. There are two ghosts standing there."
Old Lady Mu walked in with a chuckle. When she heard the sound of eating, she came behind Lu Yunxiao and Yu Jingjing and asked, "Two ghosts, I am the first wife of the King of Hell. Hand over everything in your body to me, and I will let you go."
Lu Yunxiao and Yu Jingjing turned around and saw her. Yu Jingjing wanted to tease her: "You are the first wife of Lord Yan, and I am Lord Yan."
"You are not the King of Hell, he is." Old Lady Mu pointed at Lu Yunxiao.
Lu Yunxiao: “…”
Is he ugly and scary?
Yu Jingjing took out another apple from her bag and handed it to Grandma Mu: "Grandma, have one too."
Old Lady Mu took the apple, took a bite, and said to Jingjing with a smile: "I know who you are. You are certainly not a ghost. You are a girl, haha."
"Grandma, you recognize me when I give you food."
“Hehehe.”
Yu Jingjing was afraid that others would see Old Madam Mu here, so she walked over and closed the door.
After a while, a low childish voice of grandma came from outside: "Grandma, grandma, where are you?"
"I'm here." Old Lady Mu shouted directly, and Yu Jingjing covered her mouth: "Grandma, keep your voice down, I'll go open the door."
Yu Jingjing opened the door and saw a little kid standing outside. Mu Dongdong saw Old Lady Mu and quickly pulled her out.
"Grandma, please come with me. You don't want to be with these people." As she said this, she looked at Lu Yunxiao and Yu Jingjing with timid eyes.
The little guy pulled Old Lady Mu away. Yu Jingjing suddenly felt that the little guy's eyebrows and eyes seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember who he looked like.
After she and Lu Yunxiao rested, Lu Yunxiao continued to cut the grass while she carried the grass aside and piled it up.
He cleaned up the yard in one afternoon and would clean up the house the next day. Lu Yunxiao noticed that the kang in the house was broken.
"I'll come over and build you a fire bed tomorrow."
"You can do anything."
"Growing up in the countryside, this kind of work is no problem for me."
After a while, a man about four years old came in. He was a male teacher in the village primary school, named Liu Wenjun.
Liu Wenjun saw Lu Yunxiao and Yu Jingjing cleaning the house. He was very unhappy and asked, "Why do you live here?"
"I live here." Yu Jingjing didn't know what he was doing and replied.
Liu Wenjun looked at Yu Jingjing, then at Lu Yunxiao, and finally at Yu Jingjing: "Are you here alone? Aren't you afraid it's dangerous here at night?"
"What danger could there be?"
"This place is haunted at night. I advise you not to live here."
"Then let them come. I'm not afraid." Yu Jingjing was calm and composed.
"Are you really not afraid?"
"I want to see how powerful they are. I love fighting ghosts the most."
Liu Wenjun didn't say anything else. He turned around, glanced into the other room, and left.
Lu Yunxiao said: "This guy is a bit suspicious, he doesn't look like a good person."
"It's okay. I'm not afraid of humans or ghosts."
night
Old Man Mu, Old Lady Mu, Mu Zining and Mu Dongdong were having dinner in a simple house when suddenly a man wearing a red armband came in from outside.
The leader was called Feng Guochao, who looked ferocious. Old Man Mu took a look at them and only recognized Bao Zhuangzhuang, who was standing behind Feng Guochao. He was a second-rate guy in the village. He didn't recognize the other two.
Feng Guochao first glanced at Mu Zining's pretty face, then at the food in the bowls of the four families, and said to the four people, "We are from the County Revolutionary Committee. I am the team leader of the inspection team. Someone reported that you are hiding prohibited items. We are going to search your house."
Mu Dongdong was very scared and shrank into his sister's arms. Mu Zining was also trembling with fear and hugged Mu Dongdong tightly: "Dongdong, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
Only Old Lady Mu didn't know what happened and continued to drink the wild vegetable soup in the bowl.
Old Man Mu quickly stood up, walked up to Feng Guochao, and begged him for mercy: "Captain, we are so poor here, how could we have any contraband? We would never dare to hide such things even if you kill us."
"If you say there is none, then there is none. If there is, you will know after searching.
Ding Qiang waved to Bao Zhuangzhuang behind him and said, "Go in and search quickly."
Bao Zhuangzhuang and Ding Xiaoqiang both entered the house, while Feng Guochao came to Mu Zining and stared at her pretty face again. She was really good-looking.
He bent his lower lip and said, "You guys really have not changed your bad habits. You used to treat the working people as if they were not human beings. Now you deserve this fate."
Mu Zining hugged Mu Dongdong tightly. She was shaking with fear, her lips turned pale, and she didn't dare to look up at Feng Guochao.
There was a crackling sound in the room, and a few minutes later, Bao Zhuangzhuang came out with a copy of "The Heart of a Woman".
"You said there was nothing prohibited, what is this?" It fell in front of Old Man Mu with a bang.
Old Man Mu felt his scalp tingling. He had never seen this book before, so how could it appear in their house?
Feng Guochao smiled and said, "Old man, I really can't believe you are such a jerk at your age. No, it's not an exaggeration to say that you are an old rascal. You dare to read any book and hide any book. Even though you have fallen into this world, you still haven't changed your dirty capitalist habits."
"No, I haven't read this book, and this book doesn't belong to us."
