Jiang He's words shocked Mu Ruanruan.
She was stunned for a while before she came to her senses.
"Jiang He, are you jealous?"
Jiang He drove her out of the kitchen, saying that the fire was too strong and would dry up the chicken soup.
But this time, Mu Ruanruan was sure that he was no longer unhappy, and was even a little happy.
Does he really like himself?
Doesn't he hate her so much? How can he like her?
After walking out of the kitchen, Mu Ruanruan had nothing to do, so she went to find Jiang Xiaotao, who was cleaning the yard.
Jiang He's house is very dilapidated, but it is spacious and bright, and has a good location. It is located in the center of the village, with flat terrain and a good view.
Here you can see almost half of the village's fertile land.
There are some fruit trees planted around the yard, mostly plums, peaches and the like, and there are also two orange trees.
I heard from Jiang Xiaotao that the two orange trees were not planted well and the fruits were very sour.
That's really a pity.
The yard is very large, and on the left is the private plot allocated to him by the village.
Jiang He had difficulty walking, so the private plot nearby was allocated to him, but the area was very small.
Mu Ruanruan asked Jiang Xiaotao what the reason was.
Jiang Xiaotao hesitated again, but finally couldn't resist Mu Ruanruan's coaxing. He said that because his ancestors had a bad background, it was already a special care to allocate land nearby.
So we suffer a loss in terms of area.
This is more than just a small loss, it's a big loss.
Not far away is Wang Yue'e's private plot, which is more than five times the size of Jiang Lan's.
Wang Yue'e's family only has two more people than Jiang Lan's family, and this small amount of private land is included with Jiang He's.
Jiang He helped with the planting, but all the harvest went to Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan is 5 years younger than Jiang He. She lost her mother when she was young, and Jiang He raised her.
Now Jiang Xiaotao has also lost his mother since childhood, and Jiang He raised Jiang Xiaotao and took care of Jiang Lan at the same time.
Because of his ancestors' background, Jiang He suffered losses everywhere in the village, but he was still so optimistic and never complained.
Mu Ruanruan felt even more distressed for him.
Forget the chicken legs for lunch, there aren’t enough to share.
Mu Ruanruan gave a fat chicken leg to Jiang Xiaotao and the other one to Jiang Lan.
"This is for you, like cures like."
Mu Ruanruan gave Jiang He a chicken claw and a chicken wing.
"Like cures like." Jiang He reciprocated the favor and gave Mu Ruanruan a chicken head.
"Heh, you're hinting at me. Where's the chicken butt? Find it out. Where is it?" Mu Ruanruan used a spatula to search for the chicken butt in the chicken soup.
"It's there." Jiang Xiaotao pointed to a trash can not far away.
"What a pity, why did you lose it?"
Jiang He was no longer angry, and the air in the whole room became much fresher.
Jiang Lan picked up the chicken leg again and wanted to put it in Mu Ruanruan's bowl, but then he remembered that he had already eaten with his chopsticks, so he hesitated for a moment and put it in Jiang He's bowl.
Jiang He picked it up and gave it back to Jiang Lan.
The two of them went back and forth several times.
Mu Ruanruan had already drunk half a bowl of soup.
They are still arguing.
Finally, the chicken leg fell into Jiang Xiaotao's bowl again, and the matter was settled.
"Dad, Uncle, Teacher Mu, I will definitely honor you when I grow up." Jiang Xiaotao looked at the two chicken legs in the bowl, very excited, and raised his little hand to swear.
Jiang Lan was also very moved.
Jiang He always had a blank expression on his face and told Jiang Xiaotao to eat well.
Mu Ruanruan said, "Just respect your father and uncle. You don't need to respect your teacher."
As soon as these words were spoken, Mu Ruanruan felt that the lively atmosphere at the table suddenly disappeared, the atmosphere became stiff, and then became awkward.
Jiang Xiaotao was unaware and happily ate the chicken leg.
Jiang Lan glanced at Jiang He, then at Mu Ruanruan, said nothing, and lowered his head to eat.
Jiang He's face looked unhappy, but he didn't say anything. He lowered his head and ate the rice in big mouthfuls. He didn't drink the soup beside him.
Mu Ruanruan realized that she might have said something wrong, but she didn't know what exactly she had said wrong.
She looked at Jiang Xiaotao, hoping to get some useful information from him, but Jiang Xiaotao was only busy eating the chicken leg and didn't even look at her.
She could only eat her meal in silence.
She had a small appetite, and after drinking half a bowl of chicken soup and eating half a bowl of rice, she was full.
He put down his bowl and without waiting for them to finish eating, he hurriedly picked up his cross-body bag and planned to leave this battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder.
Along the way, she was puzzled. She was fine, why did he suddenly become cold?
After Mu Ruanruan left, Jiang Xiaotao also ran out to play after dinner.
Jiang He was cleaning up the dishes when Jiang Lan called him to sit down and talk.
"What do you think?" Jiang Lan asked.
Jiang He: "What do you think?"
Jiang Lan: "You can fool yourself but you can't fool me."
Jiang He didn't say anything, nor did he refute. He just looked at the direction of the courtyard gate for a long time without moving.
Jiang Lan: "You should control yourself. None of us can give them happiness. And have you ever considered that she is an educated youth and will return sooner or later?"
"So what?" Jiang He said.
Jiang Lan knew that her younger brother had completely fallen for her.
Just because of Mu Ruanruan's words, he lost control. Jiang Lan never knew that his brother was such an impatient person.
Jiang Xiaotao could show filial piety to him or to Jiang He, but Mu Ruanruan said that she didn't need Jiang Xiaotao to show filial piety, which inadvertently separated herself from the Jiang family.
Jiang He couldn't stand just this one sentence.
Jiang Lan had talked to him once before, a long time ago, when the rumor had just started and Li Dazhui took people to Jiang He's house to catch an adulterer.
