He was determined to break off the engagement, and no one could change him.
Later, after getting used to this kind of gracefulness, he began to miss Mu Ruanruan's type. Knowing that the original body still had feelings for him, he began to flirt with the original body intentionally or unintentionally.
The ox cart slowly approached. Mu Ruanruan had no interest in watching their show, so she started jogging and "accidentally" bumped into Qiu Mei and stepped on Zhao Jinyu.
"Oh, sorry, the oxcart is coming. I was in a hurry to drive it and didn't pay attention. Are you okay?"
Qiu Mei is indeed an actress. The anger on her face only flashed for a moment before she immediately switched to a gentle and amiable mode and said softly, "I'm fine. Go catch the bus."
Zhao Jinyu, whose foot was stepped on, stared at Mu Ruanruan's back in a daze. Qiu Mei called him several times before he came to his senses.
Not far away, a tall figure was pulling a cart with a person half lying on it.
Seeing who it was, Mu Ruanruan called out without thinking, "Brother Jiang He."
There was no one else at the intersection at the moment, so Mu Ruanruan called out like that on purpose to disgust Zhao Jinyu.
Mu Ruanruan felt uncomfortable even when she wasn't looking at him, so he must be even more uncomfortable when he saw her getting close to other men.
Jiang He paused, looking at Mu Ruanruan, bathed in the morning sun. The sunlight cast a halo on her face. She looked clean and sharp in a light-colored top and black pants, carrying a faded canvas messenger bag. She waved at him, her smile innocent and pure, like a young girl.
She had never seen herself before as if she had not seen herself.
Why would she greet him so proactively this time and call him so affectionately?
Looking up again, Jiang He saw Zhao Jinyu.
So that's how it is. The little girl is using him as a tool.
Jiang He didn't look at them again. He lowered his head and pulled the cart without responding.
He couldn't help but think of the only time he had contact with her. Rumors spread in the village, and she immediately clarified that she didn't like him.
No matter what, she is an educated youth and will eventually return to the city. The two of them are not from the same world.
She also said that what happened that night was not a big deal as we were all adults.
Does she hate herself so much that she can let something like that go unmentioned?
At this time, Mu Ruanruan also realized her abruptness. She withdrew her hand, pulled the strap of her cross-body bag, pouted, kicked the stones randomly, and waited for Zhao Jinyu and the others to go away.
"Brother Jin Yu, it hurts, let's go."
When Mu Ruanruan heard Qiu Mei's voice, she realized that Zhao Jinyu and the others had not left yet. She turned around subconsciously and saw Zhao Jinyu looking at her with a happy expression.
He turned a deaf ear to Qiu Mei's urging.
Judging from his expression, he might think that she still cares about him and wants to deliberately use Jiang He to provoke him.
Are you so good at imagining things?
It was right to use Jiang He to stimulate him, but Mu Ruanruan never expected that this would have such an effect.
This Zhao Jinyu really has a serious mental illness.
No wonder, it was he who proposed to cancel the engagement. The original body cried and made a fuss, and went to the Zhao family's elders countless times, asking them not to cancel the engagement for the sake of the long-standing friendship between the two families.
That look of throwing oneself at someone is really embarrassing.
When they arrived at Shangshui Village, Mu Ruanruan looked like she was ready to take advantage of them at any time. Now that she has changed, anyone would become suspicious.
It's understandable that Zhao Jinyu didn't believe it.
In that case, Mu Ruanruan would play with him for a while, since she was free anyway.
Looking at Qiu Mei again, her little face was wrinkled into a ball, and she couldn't even maintain her personality. Mu Ruanruan glared at her provocatively again, and sure enough, she heard the sound of her facial expression tearing.
Zhao Jinyu followed Mu Ruanruan's gaze suspiciously, and Qiu Mei's expression almost faltered. Even the most impressive actress can make mistakes.
What did she say in her previous life? "Mu Ruanruan, even if you were naked and stood in front of Zhao Jinyu, he wouldn't even look at you. If you want to get close to him, you can only dream about it."
If Jiang He hadn't been there, she would have wanted to go up and tell her that your Zhao Jinyu was already staring at me eagerly before she even started taking off her clothes.
Mu Ruanruan turned around in a good mood, and looked up at Jiang He again. She happened to catch Jiang He looking at her, and the latter had the same look as the knife man.
He seemed to really hate himself.
Mu Ruanruan didn't want to be bored, so she looked away.
Zhao Jinyu saw all of this and became more and more certain that Mu Ruanruan just wanted to make him jealous, so he let Qiu Mei take him away without worry.
Jiang He did not go forward, but crossed to the other side from a distance, picked up the people on the cart on the other side, and put them on the ox cart.
The man on the cart was his brother. He broke his leg ten years ago and had no money to treat it, so he just found a doctor in the commune and received some random treatment, but he didn't recover well.
Now he gets sick every once in a while, so Jiang He sends him to the county town for treatment.
We were already poor, and now this has made our family even poorer.
In addition, their father's death was not glorious, and the villagers had a lot of complaints about the two brothers. Even though the two of them had been law-abiding over the years, no one had a good attitude towards them.
After Jiang He settled his brother, Mu Ruanruan climbed up from this side and found a place to sit. There were not many people going to the city at this time, and there were only three of them in the ox cart, plus an old man driving the cart.
The oxcart only had seats on both sides, so no matter how you sat, you were facing each other. Although Jiang He had tried to stay as far away from Mu Ruanruan as possible, he was still within reach of her so that he could touch the corner of her clothes.
He tried to turn sideways, probably with his back to her if possible.
In the sunlight, his face was so dark that ink could be squeezed out of it.
Since she really didn't like him, Mu Ruanruan didn't have the habit of going up to him to talk. She did think about easing the relationship between them, but now was not the right time.
"Little girl, are you going to the town or the county?" asked the old man driving the cart.
"The county," she said.
Jiang He didn't say anything.
Jiang Lan didn't know Mu Ruanruan. She didn't go out often, had no friends, and didn't know the rumors outside, so she thought she was a girl from some family.
So he greeted him.
"Sister, are you going to the county to buy something?" Jiang Lan started chatting with Mu Ruanruan
Mu Ruanruan was about to speak when she was interrupted by Jiang He.
"Brother!" He turned his face to the side, his expression gloomy, his tone cold and sharp like a knife.
This means he doesn't allow his brother to talk to him.
"Don't pay attention to him, that's just his personality." Jiang Lan added this to Mu Ruanruan.
Mu Ruanruan nodded slightly, but said nothing more.
It seems that there is a long way to go to ease this relationship.
