Chapter 18 Dazhu Niang gets beaten



Jiang He was in charge of watching the water that day, so he left a little late and went to check on the vegetable seedlings.

He was wearing blue cloth clothes and squatting on the ground. The place happened to be low-lying, so Qiu Mei and Sun Lili did not notice him.

When the two men passed by him, they were talking about Li Dazhu.

Jiang He didn't pay attention, and the two of them deliberately concealed what they said, so he only heard vaguely and didn't understand what they meant. But he also had a question in his mind: when did Li Dazhu become so familiar with them?

The two walked away, and Jiang He didn't think much about it and continued to look at the water.

Mu Ruanruan also heard a lot of gossip and found it unbelievable, but then she thought about it and realized that Jiang Lan was indeed good-looking and didn't work outside, so her face was even more youthful than Jiang He's.

It is not impossible to be noticed by others.

Maybe it's a good thing.

While everyone was having lunch, Mu Ruanruan took a walk to digest the food. It would be more accurate to say that she was taking a walk to get away from the gossip rather than digesting the food. Liao Xiaohong usually didn't take a nap at noon, so if she saw her, she would definitely chat endlessly.

Mu Ruanruan just walked casually and unknowingly walked into the fields.

At this moment, everyone was eating and taking a nap at home, and only a very few people were still busy working in the fields. Mu Ruanruan greeted them when she passed by.

Not far away, a figure looked familiar.

River brown.

Mu Ruanruan felt a little embarrassed when she recalled what happened last time. She didn't want to confront Jiang He head-on, so she found a place to hide.

Jiang He didn't seem to notice her either, and was carefully checking the water in the field.

There were several times when he almost walked near Mu Ruanruan, but fortunately he had not finished his work yet, so he did not go ashore where Mu Ruanruan was hiding.

Mu Ruanruan's heart was pounding. She felt the thrill of a voyeur. She was worried but also wanted to see, so she would pop her head out from time to time to peek at Jiang He.

He seems to have lost some weight.

Mu Ruanruan was puzzled. She had eaten meat, so why was she still losing weight?

Could it be that the meat was really the slices she had brought over the day before yesterday? If that was the case, then this incident was indeed caused by her.

Jiang He has lost a lot of weight, and his clothes have become much looser.

But no matter how thin he was, he was not frail; he was still lean and strong. Frankly speaking, Mu Ruanruan was very attracted by his figure and face. She couldn't help swallowing again. Although he was a bit thin at the moment, it was still okay. If he was any thinner, he would probably feel bad.

Unfortunately, the two of them didn't get along at all. When he saw her, he couldn't hide his displeasure, and when she saw him, she wanted to hide because of her guilty conscience.

However, if these rumors were caused by her again, she would be in his debt again. How could she make up for it?

If I do nothing, what if he hates me even more?

Mu Ruanruan always thought she was good at judging people. When she looked at Jiang He, she felt that this was a character who was not easy to mess with. If he hated her and attacked her unexpectedly and stabbed her in the back, she would be in great trouble.

Based on years of experience in reading novels, it is better to win over such a powerful character before he turns evil.

After she figures it out a little more, if this matter really has something to do with her, she wouldn't mind swallowing her pride and going to the man's house to make peace.

While he was thinking about it, Chen Lai appeared out of nowhere: "Teacher Mu, what are you doing here?"

Mu Ruanruan was so frightened by his shout that she almost lost her soul. She quickly got up to look at Jiang He.

It was a close call, Jiang He was gone.

"Oh, just come out for a walk. If you get tired, sit down for a while."

"This stone is cold, don't catch a cold."

"Okay, I'll leave now."

Chen Lai didn't have any classes in the afternoon and was riding his bicycle home. The bicycle had been used for a long time and was very worn out and creaked. Mu Ruanruan was worried that it would fall apart one day.

There were no classes in the afternoon, so Mu Ruanruan planned to go home directly. She had already prepared for tomorrow's classes, so it was okay to leave her things at school.

But Mu Ruanruan did not go home directly. Instead, she stood here for a while, thinking that Jiang He should have gone far away before she started to walk towards the village.

She didn't know that Jiang He didn't leave, but turned a corner and stood behind her, but was blocked and Mu Ruanruan couldn't see him.

The corners of Jiang He's mouth were curled up, and his eyes were staring in the direction of Mu Ruanruan, like the shimmering surface of a lake under the sun.

When Mu Ruanruan arrived in the village, everyone had already started working.

She went to find Li Dazhu's mother, but Dazhu's mother said that the photo had not been found yet and she would tell her when it was found.

Although Mu Ruanruan was anxious, there was nothing she could do and she could only wait for news.

When work was over in the evening, Li Dazhu's family finished their meal, and Dazhu's mother began to clean up the dishes. After that, she fed the chickens, gathered the newly taken-off dirty clothes in the yard, cleaned the yard, and closed the door.

The family did not turn on the lights immediately, but waited until it was completely dark and could no longer see anything before turning on the lights.

The light was dim and only vague things could be seen. If young people wanted to mend clothes or something, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to find the needle properly.

Of course, Dazhu's mother would not take this opportunity to mend clothes. After she finished all this, she brought water for Dazhu's father to wash his face and feet.

Her father lived in the old society and educated her using the old society's methods. A woman was supposed to take care of her husband and children. Her husband and son were her heaven. She had to obey her father at home and after marriage.

She has always done this.

Dazhu's father never thought there was anything wrong with this.

After washing the feet, Dazhu's mother handed a cloth to Dazhu's father. He began to wipe his feet while Dazhu's mother went out to pour water.

She poured the water into the yard, closed the door, put the basin away, and washed herself before entering.

When I came in, Dazhu's father was sitting on the bed smoking a pipe.

"His father." Dazhu's mother sat down and started talking.
