Zhou Qiaoqiao was also worried about Tian Xiaolan. Her cousin's driving skills really needed practice, so she specifically warned her, "When he starts driving later, you must hold on to the door handle and be careful not to get thrown out."
"Okay." Tian Xiaolan nodded.
Seeing that they had agreed, the old man put down his broom and led the way. As they walked, he did not forget to ask, "Where are you from?"
"Old man, we are from the town and are here to help you. Can you please hurry up?" Zhou Qiaoqiao urged, because she was walking in front like taking a stroll, and the cars following behind were also stopping and starting, which was still very dangerous.
The old lady hammered his foot, already walking as fast as she could, "You can't walk fast. You're old and can't walk anymore. Why did you ask me to lead the way if you were in a hurry?"
I didn't see anyone else. I only saw her sweeping the floor outside. If I didn't call her, who else would I call?
Tian Xiaolan suggested: "Sister Zhou, can we let her get in the car and show us the way? That would be faster."
If she walked at this speed, she might not reach the destination until noon. Zhou Qiaoqiao also thought this was a good idea, but she didn't know if the old lady could withstand the shaking of the car. When she was sitting in the car, she felt like her butt was lifted off when the car passed through the mountain road, and the shaking made her bones ache. Now she didn't see anyone else, so this was the only way.
I discussed with Master Zhu and said, "Cousin, please stop first and take this elder sister with you. We will follow you."
Zhu Zhi thought it was okay, so he pulled the handrail back with his left hand, parked the car, and shouted to the people outside, "Come here and get in."
The person was slow to begin with, and if she continued to walk ahead, it would take forever to arrive. He didn't say much and reached out to pull her up.
Tian Xiaolan carried the old lady up in her arms. Zhu Zhi pulled her up with one hand without much effort and she fell into the car.
"Oh, if you can't convince me, I'll fight back. I'll tell the village chief and ask him to take charge of the matter!" The old lady yelled, rubbing her chest as if no one was around.
"Hurry up and sit down and hold the handrail, I'm going to drive!" Zhu Zhi didn't say much to her. If she wanted to sue him, she could go ahead, he was not afraid, as long as she didn't delay him from driving the engine. Now she was dilly-dallying and doing something, he couldn't bear to see it. When he started the car later, it would be strange if she didn't fall off the bumpy road. If something happened to her, he would have to pay for it, so he was patient and talked to him now.
"I didn't want to get on here. You guys threw me up here without saying a word. You think you're right? Let me off the bus. I won't lead the way anymore!" The old lady climbed up with the help of the handrail beside her, but she didn't hold on to it and kept shouting. When she looked down, she found that the big iron lump was not only strong but also very tall. Her legs were weak. If she fell down, she would be smashed into a meat patty!
"Were you the one who asked me to lead the way? Now you are telling me all this!" Zhu Zhidu was so angry that he laughed. It was clearly her who took the initiative to say that she would take them there, but now she turned her back on her and refused to acknowledge her. She even refused to take the bus so that it would save time and not be so tiring. Her kindness was really taken for granted.
"Auntie, we just told you that you didn't say anything. It's not good now that it's become like this. You don't want everyone to say that you have no credibility, do you?" Tian Xiaolan said to her lightly. She knew what she cared about most. No one in the village didn't care about their reputation.
After hearing this, the old lady thought to herself that if Tian Xiaolan spread rumors in the village, even if some people didn't believe it, there would still be people who believed it. She wouldn't be able to explain herself then, so she should just do as she said. When she got to the village chief, if they weren't from the town, she could let the village chief beat them with sticks and starve them for a few meals so they would behave themselves.
She stopped making a fuss and sat down quietly, waiting for the car to leave. When she saw the village chief, she knew she couldn't wait any longer.
Zhu Zhi didn't know what was going on in her mind, but seeing that she had suddenly calmed down, he started the car and asked, "Which way?"
We drove along the road she pointed, and the houses became fewer and fewer until we arrived at a remote field. The summer sun poured down on the vast rice fields like a golden waterfall. The golden rice grains seemed like a gorgeous brocade dyed by the sun.
As the breeze blows, the rice fields rise and fall like waves, creating layers of golden ripples, and the fragrance of rice fills the air.
There was a scorching sun overhead and the sky was so blue without a single cloud, like a huge sapphire.
The big guy wore a straw hat, bent over, held the rice stalks tightly in his left hand, and waved the sickle with his right hand. With a few "swish" sounds, bundles of rice were neatly cut and piled aside.
The children were also helping in the fields. Their small figures were moving back and forth in the rice fields. Some were helping to carry the harvested rice to the edge of the field, while others were picking up fallen rice ears. Although they were tired and sweating, their faces were filled with innocent smiles.
Zhu Zhi arrived first and felt a little emotional when he saw this scene. It was the crops they planted in the fields that gave them food to eat. He hoped that the machines could reduce their workload.
In fact, this machine was just produced not long ago, so we use it for experimentation first.
"Who is the village chief?" Zhu Zhi asked, looking at the people working hard in the fields.
The old lady looked around but didn't see him, so she said, "No, he's not here."
She wanted to see the village chief even more than he did, and asked her to deal with this outsider. He must not want to live anymore as he dared to bully the people of Wangjia Village on their territory.
After hearing what she said, he was not there while those people were working. I don't know why they were so busy. He must have gone back home to be lazy.
Before he came, someone told him that the Wangjia Village he was visiting today was a tough one, and he had to come even if he was selected. Today he finally saw it. The villagers were all working, and he, the leader, was not here. He didn't know what important things they were busy with.
Tian Xiaolan and Zhou Qiaoqiao did not follow him closely because the machine was emitting thick black smoke from the rear tires as it moved, which looked unhealthy.
