Pei Yan ignored him, put down the basket, picked some grape leaves to use as a base, and then started picking grapes.
"So sweet! So sweet!" After eating a lot, Fang Hai started picking grapes like Pei Yan.
They had to hurry because they had to send it into the city later.
After the two of them had filled two baskets with fruit, there were still a dozen or so bunches left on the tree, which they planned to keep for their family.
After walking for a while towards the county town with the backpack on their backs, the two men hid the backpack in a trap left along the way.
Then the two of them went back to the village to ride their bicycles, as walking would have been too slow.
Last night, Pei Yan went to the village chief's house in the dark to borrow a bicycle. The village chief was more concerned about the Gu family.
Pei Yan usually worked three days and rested for two days, but he turned a blind eye and lent him the bicycle.
By the time the two men rode their bicycles with the backpacks on their backs, they had not yet entered the city. It was already bright outside and there were already pedestrians on the road. The two men riding bicycles with a large backpack on their backs were too conspicuous.
They had a base in a remote place, a house that Gu Yan had bought by chance. The neighbors were all far away, so it was safe there.
The two of them bought small quantities in multiple batches and successfully sold all the two baskets of grapes.
Inside the educated youth site.
"Xu Zhiqing, wait a minute."
Xu Zhiyi was just returning to get his gloves when he was stopped by Fu Huaijin who came limping out.
"I see your gloves are too old. I have a new pair here that I bought in the county town and haven't worn yet. You can use them."
He is so gentle and considerate, and his injured foot doesn't stop him from standing there and exuding confidence.
Look! Are you attracted by my thoughtfulness and fall in love with me?
It's just unbearable to watch!
If someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
"My gloves are in good condition. Jiang Zhiqing still needs a pair of gloves. You should give them to her." Xu Zhiyi didn't want to beat around the bush with him.
Fu Huaijin almost couldn't hold back the smile on his face. "I'm just trying to care about my comrades and help each other."
"Oh, I don't need it." Xu Zhiyi ignored him and turned away.
Fu Huaijin was left standing in the messy courtyard, with a strange look on his face and full of self-doubt...
Xu Zhiyi didn't care what he was talking about. This guy was really philanthropic, whether it was the female comrades at the educated youth site or the women of marriageable age in the village, he had a good chat with them.
It's not quite Poseidon, but it's about the same as central air conditioning.
Xu Zhiyi sneered at such people, probably thinking that they were planning something on her again.
She doesn't buy that.
But some people just fall for his tricks.
When Fu Huaijin was doubting himself in the yard holding gloves, the door was pushed open.
When Song Lan opened the door, she saw Fu Huaijin standing in the yard. She looked at Fu Huaijin in surprise.
"Fu Zhiqing, why are you standing in the yard? Is your foot injury better?"
"Comrade Song, why are you here?" Fu Huaijin was surprised to see Song Lan at work.
"I was worried about your injury when I got home last night. I was so worried that I came to see you." Song Lan said as her face flushed and her voice became softer and softer.
Fu Huaijin's eyes flickered and the smile on his face became more obvious. He understood what the man in front of him was thinking and had other ideas in his mind.
"I'm sorry to have worried you. If you hadn't rescued me, I don't know what would have happened. Comrade Song Lan, thank you so much."
Fu Huaijin is handsome. As long as he shows his affection for a girl, basically no one can escape his charm.
Except Xu Zhiyi.
Of course Song Lan would be impressed by his gentleness and handsomeness, not to mention that Song Lan already had plans for him.
The two stood in the yard, their eyes locked with each other, an ambiguous atmosphere surrounding them.
"You're welcome. Fu Zhiqing has come all the way to Xiangyang Village, so we villagers should take good care of you."
"It's just right that you're here, Comrade Song Lan. I don't have anything nice to express my gratitude. This is a pair of new gloves I bought in the city some time ago. I'm giving them to you. Remember to wear them when you work, otherwise I'd be heartbroken if you hurt your hands."
Fu Huaijin did not hide his concern for her, and the signal he conveyed to Song Lan was that Fu Huaijin liked her.
Song Lan shyly took the gloves. Her delicate face, fair skin, and big watery eyes sparkled with light as she looked at him.
Why hadn't he noticed such a beautiful girl in the village before? Her curved eyelashes seemed to sweep into his heart, making him feel itchy.
Then Fu Huaijin showed a sad look on his face and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Song Lan had never seen her beloved so worried. "Fu Zhiqing, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?"
Fu Huaijin's face showed an embarrassment, and he said, "My father was framed and sent to a farm. Someone on the farm targeted him and made him do hard labor every day. After a serious illness, his health is not good, and he needs a ginseng to survive. I have no other choice, so I go up the mountain every day to try my luck, maybe I can find a place to stay."
"Who knew I would be so useless? Now my foot is injured and I can hardly even walk."
As he said this, he hit his legs with his fist.
Seeing her lover so sad, Song Lan couldn't bear to let him go, so she quickly grabbed Fu Huaijin's hand.
"Fu Zhiqing, don't be like this. I'll find it for you. I grew up in the village and have been running to the mountains since I was a child. Maybe I can find ginseng."
"Really? Lanlan? But it's too dangerous in the mountains, and I can't bear to let you take the risk." Fu Huaijin expressed his true feelings and was very worried about Song Lan's safety.
"Brother Huaijin, I'm not afraid! I will definitely find ginseng for you."
Song Lan was determined and would do anything for her brother Huai Jin.
The two kept holding hands, one doing it intentionally and the other pretending not to know.
"Lanlan..."
"Brother Huaijin..."
The atmosphere became subtle.
The two heads were getting closer and closer, until their breaths could hit each other's faces.
“Ding ding ding~”
When the bell rang for the end of work, the two were suddenly startled and separated at lightning speed.
Fu Huaijin was a little scared. Why did he do that in the yard in broad daylight... Fortunately, the others had gone to work, otherwise it would have been troublesome if someone saw them.
Song Lan felt it was a pity. The damn ringing sound didn’t ring earlier or later. She almost kissed him.
"Lanlan, you should go back first. The others will be back soon. If they see the two of us alone together, it will be bad for your reputation."
"Okay, Brother Huaijin, I'll go back first."
Song Lan was reluctant to leave and lingered, not wanting to go.
"Lanlan, I will come to find you, wait for me." Fu Huaijin said to Song Lan with deep affection.
Song Lan nodded deeply, turned around and ran away.
Fu Huaijin was so proud that he swallowed his pride and took the initiative to find Xu Zhiyi, but she was so ungrateful.
Without her, someone else would have taken the initiative to come forward.
