The sun was shining brightly in the early summer afternoon, and the road was covered with mist. To get to the soybean field, you had to cross a suburban road. The long reeds swayed without wind, and there was gurgling water in the canals beside the road. Frogs were squatting in the grass and croaking, bringing a hint of coolness.
Xie Sanren was tall and had long legs. He walked very fast even with a big basket on his back. He had no intention of giving in to Cheng Yaoyao. Cheng Yaoyao chased after him and soon he was out of breath. He held his stomach and panted: "Slow down...slow down a bit, I can't do it anymore..."
"..." Cheng Yaoyao's panting was delicate and soft, Xie San's ears were hot, and he turned to look at Cheng Yaoyao with a frown. The delicate girl's cheeks were red from the sun, and there was a thin layer of sweat on her white forehead. Her black hair was also stuck to her forehead. Even a wolf could not hide her beauty.
Cheng Yaoyao secretly looked at Xie San, and when she saw him turn around, she immediately made a painful expression, with her pretty face wrinkled: "I really can't walk anymore..."
Xie San stared at her with his dark eyes, expressionless: "It's only a mile away."
"Still a mile away?!" Cheng Yaoyao cried out, and really squatted on the ground and couldn't get up: "We've been walking for a long time!"
Xie San glanced at the sky and said, "If you delay any longer, the sun will get even brighter."
Xie San was tall, and his shadow loomed over Cheng Yaoyao's head, intentionally or unintentionally blocking the sunlight. Cheng Yaoyao felt better, squatting on the ground and begging: "I'm so thirsty, and my legs hurt. I can't walk, I need to rest for a while."
Xie San's narrow eyes narrowed slightly, Cheng Yaoyao froze for a second and said, "Then...then you go first, I'll rest for a while and then catch up with you."
"No." Xie San said sternly, "The captain asked me to be responsible for your safety."
Cheng Yaoyao said: "You are also responsible for my life and health. If you leave again, I will be exhausted to death."
Xie San untied the rope around his waist and said, "The captain didn't let me be responsible for this."
"You!" Cheng Yaoyao stared at him. Who said Xie San was tongue-tied? One word could make her angry to death, but she didn't dare to make a fuss.
Cheng Yaoyao was puffing up her face and was angry. Xie walked up to her in two or three steps, and Cheng Yaoyao shrank back in fear: "What are you doing!"
Xie San held the rope in his hand in front of Cheng Yaoyao: "Do you want to go by yourself, or do it the same as last time?"
The rough hemp rope was still stained with blood, and it was swinging in front of Cheng Yaoyao intimidatingly. The pig hoof buckle was still vivid in his mind, and Cheng Yaoyao was furious, and he looked at Xie San with hatred!
Xie San took it calmly and asked again: "Do you want to leave?"
Can Cheng Yaoyao admit it? ! She pouted and shouted, "Just go!"
Xie San waited quietly. Cheng Yaoyao couldn't get up for a long time. He blushed and stammered, "My legs are numb..."
Xie San's lips curled up imperceptibly and he handed the rope to her: "Hold it."
Cheng Yaoyao grabbed the rope, and Xie San gently pulled it and lifted her up. Cheng Yaoyao didn't let go, and took the opportunity to hang her entire weight on the rope. Xie San didn't say anything to her, and walked forward with the basket in one hand and Cheng Yaoyao in the other.
Cheng Yaoyao deliberately fell back, like a disobedient pet, and moved forward with the help of Xie San. Xie San's broad back was covered with sweat, and his arm muscles were bulging as he pulled the rope steadily. She smiled secretly, and suddenly the rope was pulled forward. Cheng Yaoyao staggered a few steps and fell forward, almost bumping into Xie San's back.
Xie San turned around and glanced at her calmly. Cheng Yaoyao became obedient and followed him with grievance, not daring to do anything naughty again.
Cheng Yaoyao was a top beauty in both her past and present lives. No matter what people thought in their hearts, they only flattered and coaxed her on the surface, and she was also proud like a princess, not paying attention to anyone.
How could he not feel wronged when he was being beaten up by a country bumpkin? Cheng Yaoyao pouted his lips and staggered as Xie San led him.
After walking along the path, we passed a wind and rain bridge. There was a small spring at the end of the bridge, wild flowers and grasses were swaying on the bridge, and water was gurgling under the bridge. The cool breeze was refreshing on the face, which was very comfortable.
Cheng Yaoyao was already so tired that she was sweating all over. When she was blown by the cool steam, she wanted to hug the bridge pillar tightly and not let go. But she was afraid that Xie San would tie her up, so when she was struggling, Xie San suddenly stopped.
Xie San put down the basket and rope and walked to the spring. Cheng Yaoyao hurriedly followed him. She hadn't had any water since morning and her throat was sore.
As soon as you get close, you can feel the cool water vapor blowing on your face. The spring water flows out from the mountain wall, and drops of it gather into a spring. The spring is only the size of a washbasin, and the water is so clear that you can see the bottom. Water plants are swaying softly at the bottom of the water, and you can also see transparent shrimps swimming. Purple-flowered Guanyin grass and yellow quail grass grow on the wet sand around, and there is also a broken porcelain bowl.
Xie San washed his face with water, and water dripped down along his handsome features, which made Cheng Yaoyao stunned for a moment. For the first time, she realized that Xie San was really handsome. His facial features were thin and sharp, his narrow eyebrows and eyes were bright like cold stars, and his lips were neither thick nor thin, but beautiful diamond-shaped lips. His wheat-colored skin exuded a wild beauty, which was pure masculine handsomeness.
"Are you thirsty?" Xie San's words broke Cheng Yaoyao's reverie. She met Xie San's cold eyes and came back to her senses.
She was actually staring at the future boss in a daze! Cheng Yaoyao, it's not like you haven't seen handsome guys before, sober up!
Cheng Yaoyao's cheeks were red and he quickly imitated Xie San and splashed some water on his face: "Hiss, this water is so cold!"
The temperature of the mountain spring water was so cool that Cheng Yaoyao shivered. His sunburned cheeks were kissed by the spring water, which made him feel much better. Cheng Yaoyao splashed several handfuls of water on his face while calling for ice. He then looked at himself in the spring water, patted his cheeks and said to himself: "I'm all sunburned. I wonder if I'll get sun spots. It's over. Ultraviolet rays will accelerate skin aging..."
Cheng Yaoyao muttered to herself for a long time, and fiddled with her bangs to ensure that her appearance remained in the best condition. Her skin was truly that of a stunning beauty, and after three months of exposure to the wind and sun, it was still as tough as a whirlwind.
Cheng Yaoyao fiddled with it for a long time before she remembered that there was someone beside her. She turned her head stiffly, and saw Xie San leaning against the bridge pillar with his arms folded, looking at her expressionlessly. She didn't know how long he had been looking at her.
"..." Cheng Yaoyao's cheeks, which were frozen to the bone, turned red again, and he said shamelessly, "I know I'm beautiful, you can see it as you like."
Xie San silently looked at the rope on the ground. Finally, he said, "Drink the water and hurry on."
Cheng Yaoyao stared at the spring water, then looked up at Xie San and humbly asked, "How do I drink it? That bowl is so dirty."
The porcelain bowl had a hole in it, and it had been used by countless people. There was also a layer of light moss growing on the bottom of the bowl. Cheng Yaoyao would rather die on the spot than drink water from this bowl.
Xie San looked at her strangely, and Cheng Yaoyao looked at him innocently. A cool breeze blew between the two of them, swirled around, and left.
Xie San tried to hold back, but finally couldn't hold back any more: "You don't have hands? Or you don't have brains?"
"..." Cheng Yaoyao's pretty face swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the end, anger finally defeated fear. He scooped up water and splashed it towards Xie San fiercely: "You are brainless! How dare you say I am brainless!"
The water fight ended with Cheng Yaoyao running out of energy. Xie San's coat front and face were soaked, and Cheng Yaoyao didn't take good care of it, so the spring water was mixed up by her and couldn't be drunk.
Xie San came over with a cold face, picked a leaf and stuck it on the stone wall, and the spring water gathered and flowed down. Cheng Yaoyao took a sip from the tip of the leaf, which cooled his heart and swept away the heat of the summer, and it was also a little sweet.
Cheng Yaoyao licked the water like a kitten, sticking out his red tongue to drink. Xie San took off his jacket and squeezed out the water, and accidentally saw this, and froze in his place.
Cheng Yaoyao drank his fill of water, refilled his own water bottle, wiped his mouth and hands with his hand towel, and then stood up with satisfaction: "I'm done drinking."
Xie San had his back to her, his muscles stiff, and he was in a daze. Cheng Yaoyao poked him with a finger: "Hey..."
Just a little bit away from hitting him, Xie San dodged violently. Cheng Yaoyao pouted: "What are you doing? You are so weird."
Xie San didn't answer, but turned around and walked to the spring, scooped up some water and drank several gulps, splashing it on his face. He was soaked all over, half-knelt there, gasping for breath, like a drowned dog.
After a long while, Xie Sancai stood up, walked to the bridge and picked up the basket and rope.
The end of the rope suddenly tightened, and Cheng Yaoyao took the initiative to pull the rope, urging him: "Let's go, let's go, I'm not tired anymore!"
Cheng Yaoyao held one end of the rope and ran briskly ahead, her dark hair swinging on her back, looking light and cute.
Xie San: “…”
At this moment, a white cloud floated across the sky, blocking the sun, bringing a rare cool breeze. Cheng Yaoyao stopped messing around, and Xie San quickened his pace, and the two of them soon arrived at the soybean field.
Corn was interplanted in the soybean field. At this time, the green corn stalks were neatly arranged in the field, and purple-red ears were sprouting. A half-meter field was left in the middle of each row of corn to plant soybeans.
Cheng Yaoyao ran into the shade of the cornfield, fanning himself with his hand and asked Xie San, "What are we going to do?"
Xie San put down the basket and rope, walked into the cornfield, searched for a while, and took out two shovels. He handed the new one to Cheng Yaoyao and gave her a pair of dirty gloves: "Turning the soil, sowing seeds."
"I don't understand at all, but I have a good learning ability." Cheng Yaoyao put the shovel aside, spread out his gloves and shook them, shaking off a lot of dirt and grass clippings.
She wrinkled her nose and looked at the gloves, her pretty little face full of seriousness, as if she was studying some difficult problem.
Xie San curled his lips sarcastically and was about to speak, but Cheng Yaoyao put on the gloves. Her slender and white fingers were inserted into the dirty gloves one by one. The gloves were more than two sizes too big and hung loosely on her hands, looking very funny.
Cheng Yaoyao moved his fingers and consoled himself: "It's a little big, but I can still use it! It won't make my fingers rough. Thank you, Third Brother, thank you."
Cheng Yaoyao suddenly raised his head and gave Xie San a sweet smile.
