Then we began to eat, and for a moment neither of us had the heart to speak.

After a while, halfway through the meal, my mother stopped her chopsticks and said to me, "Juanzi, when you come back from planting rice tonight, you can go to your former classmates." I heard from the village chief that the village high school is about to be withdrawn, and there may be acquaintances who will transfer to your school at that time. ”

Hearing this, my hand holding the chopsticks fell down, and the chopsticks collided with the plate, making a crisp sound.

I was stunned for a moment, and my nerves tensed.

The classmates in the village know the situation of my family very well, and they all know the relationship between my mother and the village chief Guo, which is still a secret that has not been exposed.

If they turn around later......

I didn't dare to think about it for a while.

My heart lifted up for a moment, and I immediately asked, "Mom, when did it happen?"

But my mother still looked indifferent, she said: "It's just about this year and next year, why do you ask so clearly." ”

My heart was in turmoil for a moment, and I didn't even notice Zheng Xinguang's frequent gaze at me.

After lunch, my mom said she had gone out beforehand.

There are only two people left in the family, me and Zheng Xinguang.

At this time, Zheng Xinguang said considerately: "Li Juan, your hand is injured, it's inconvenient, I'll wash the dishes." You just sit and watch. ”

Seeing that he had taken over the task of washing the dishes, I nodded dumbfoundedly and sat down on the sidelines.

"Li Juan, in fact, you don't have to think about it, I will always be by your side to protect you. By the way, do you want to go to your former classmates later? I'll go with you. ”

Zheng Xinguang was talking to me while brushing the bowl.

But I only listened to the first half of the sentence, and the rest of the sentence was not listening because I was distracted, and I never answered him.

"Li Juan, Li Juan, Juanzi?" It didn't take long for Zheng Xinguang to notice my stunned gaze and call out to me repeatedly.

With these few calls, I was called back to my senses, and my mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts, and finally it turned into a sentence.

I asked softly, "Will there come a day when even you start hating me?"

When Zheng Xinguang heard my words, his expression was shocked, and then he showed great distress.

He thought I was still feeling uncomfortable because of what Village Chief Guo said just now, so he wiped his hands and came over and hugged me.

He said to me in a distressed and soft manner, "Never." ”

When I heard this, I felt a sense of comfort in my heart, and a hint of sweetness quietly rose.

Holding him back, I didn't speak again.

At that time, we thought that if we said goodbye, we could go forever, just as we said goodbye and we could say goodbye.

When we are young, we can always make promises. It's just that now that I think about it, it's all devastated.

In the afternoon, the two of us went to the field to plant rice, but my mother still didn't come because of something.

As soon as we arrived in the field, we were in trouble.

I saw Guo Xiangqiang leading two hairy boys to squat in the field.

As soon as they saw us coming, they approached with great vigour, stretching out their hands to block our way.

Guo Xiangqiang looked at me and Zheng Xinguang, his eyes were a little more annoyed, and he said arrogantly and obscenely: "Li Juan, you are going to be my wife in the future, so you can be a little bit more careful, what is it to mix with him?"

Hearing his humiliation again was like pouring another handful of salt into my wounds, and my face was pale.

At this time, a few people next to him coaxed and said, "Qiangzi, your brain is a little green!"

"Since you are with our strong son, you have to keep the women's way!"

Zheng Xinguang saw them rushing up, pulled me behind him to protect me, and said angrily: "Don't daydream in broad daylight, what kind of virtue do you have, and you don't know how to pee!"

But this time Guo Xiangqiang came with a helper, and it was not false at all.

He looked at Zheng Xinguang with a cruel smile, rolled up his sleeves, pointed his hand forward, beckoned the brothers to come up, and moved his hand directly: "I see how dare you be tough with me this time!"

Zheng Xinguang pushed me away and fought with these three people.

I stood next to me and was a little dumbfounded for a while, and when those people beckoned to Zheng Xinguang with their fists, I reacted instantly, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't fight!

But none of the four responded to me, and they were scuffling together.

Although it was one against three, Zheng Xinguang still did not lose. Although he was also hit, it was more of a hit to the opposite three grinning.

I was frightened, and when I saw Zheng Xinguang's face also colored, I couldn't help but feel distressed.

Guo Xiangqiang: A few of them are not much better. They fought and fought, and felt that they could not get half a penny, so they jerked back.

Pointing at Zheng Xinguang, they scolded and shouted: "You wait for me!"

As if the speaker was afraid to avoid it, they helped each other and ran away.

Seeing that they were finally separated, I hurriedly stepped forward to check Zheng Xinguang's injuries: "Xinguang, are you okay?"

Seeing Zheng Xinguang's face red and purple, and blood even coming out of the corners of his mouth, I suddenly felt distressed.

At the same time, I also blamed myself very much, looking at Zheng Xinguang and almost crying: "It's all my fault, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been hurt......

Zheng Xinguang smiled at this time and comforted me and said, "It's okay, let your women suffer their grievances, what kind of man is it?"

Another flash of water shook in my eyes, and then I took out the handkerchief I gave him from Zheng Xinguang's pocket, hurriedly picked up some water on the ground, and rushed to help Zheng Xinguang wipe the blood off the corner of his mouth.

When I rubbed it, I didn't dare to push too hard, so I just rubbed it gently with a handkerchief.

When I saw that there was no blood in the corners of Zheng Xinguang's mouth, the fear in my heart eased a little.

I looked at Zheng Xinguang and whispered to him, "I'm sorry, I'm causing you trouble again." ”

When Zheng Xinguang heard this, he flicked his finger lightly on my head, and said pretending to be serious: "You are not allowed to say sorry to me in the future, did you hear it?"

I stared at him blankly for a moment, not reacting.

Zheng Xinguang couldn't help frowning, involving the wound, and grinning his teeth.

Seeing that I was looking at him worriedly, Zheng Xinguang said nonchalantly: "I said that I would always protect you, so whatever injury I suffered was my own volition, you don't have to say I'm sorry." I don't want to hear you talk to me like that. ”

I bit my lip, and suddenly there was a bitter feeling in my heart.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Xinguang made a promise, so he really did it, still in an extremely tragic situation.

I don't know how long this protection will last, but at this moment, I really feel that Zheng Xinguang will protect me forever.

If I stay by his side, I will always be safe, and maybe I can get my own happiness?
