Chapter 21: The Night is Dark and the Wind is High
"Xia Qiu, I brought you thirty catties of snails. ”
Wang Jianxin saw Xia Qiu in the sunset a few meters away, like an elf coming from the mountains.
Xia Qiu watched the young man run towards her, his smile as warm as the sun. Xia Wangcai was behind Wang Jianxin, his pace was slow, and his face was difficult to hide his grievances.
"Xia Qiu, I took it and weighed it, thirty-two pounds and eight taels. ”
When Wang Jianxin sent the two buckets to Xia Qiu, he was triumphant, as if he had done something great.
Xia Qiu went to look at the snails in the bucket, and the two buckets were each half a bucket, and they did look like they were thirty pounds.
"Thank you. ”
She stood up, found a large bucket in the house, poured the snails they had sent into it, and washed the two buckets very carefully.
"Give the bucket back to you. ”
After washing the buckets, she handed the two buckets to Wang Jianxin.
Wang Jianxin took the bucket and handed it to Xia Wangcai casually. Xia Wangcai didn't want to take it, Wang Jianxin glared at him, and insisted on stuffing the bucket to him.
Then, he approached Xia Qiu with a sneer.
"Xia Qiu, you see, I have been touching the snails for you all afternoon, you ...... Would you like to be my girlfriend?"
Xia Qiu glanced at him faintly, as if she had heard some funny joke.
"I said Wang Jianxin, do you think that I am worth these thirty catties of snails?"
"No, it's not ......"
Wang Jianxin was busy denying it, "In my heart, you are a priceless treasure, these snails ......"
He hesitated, thought about it, he pointed to Xia Wangcai and said: "Only Xia Wangcai, a bastard boy, is only worth these thirty catties of snails." ”
Xia Wangcai reluctantly carried two buckets, and when he heard this, he was stunned.
"I ......"
His throat was blocked by something, he looked at Wang Jianxin, then at Xia Qiu, and finally his eyes fell on the big bucket of snails, the bucket of snails that he had soaked in the river for an afternoon and touched, and he was speechless for a long time.
What is he? Got shot while lying down? What is ...... He's only worth 30 pounds of snails? Is he that cheap?
Xia Qiu looked at Xia Wangcai's unpredictable face and couldn't help laughing.
"Since it's a priceless treasure, then you chase me this road, it's still long, and let's go and watch. ”
"No, Xia Qiu......"
"For example, help me bring this big bucket of snails to my kitchen. ”
Xia Qiu directly interrupted Wang Jianxin, raised his thin eyebrows slightly, and his smile was sly.
"Such a big bucket ......"
Wang Jianxin was in a dilemma! From childhood to adulthood, he was pampered and pampered, where did he do any hard work? Is it okay that he has not mentioned such a heavy thing for more than 10 years?
"Why?
Xia Qiu seemed to see through him, "You can't even help me carry thirty pounds of snails, I became your girlfriend, don't you have to let me protect you?" ”
Agitation, she played very slippery.
Sure enough, Wang Jianxin was stimulated by her very perfectly.
"I'm moving. ”
He gritted his teeth and said stubbornly. After saying that, he hurriedly went to carry the large bucket of snails. With all his strength, he lifted the bucket.
Xia Qiu watched coldly, just like that, watching Wang Jianxin difficult and slow to carry the snail into her kitchen. When he came out, panting and holding on to the door.
"Summer and autumn, I ...... I'll help you get in. Wang Jianxin took a big breath, and did not forget to smile at Xia Qiu.
Xia Qiu looked at him with a pure smile, and there was an illusion that this Wang Jianxin was actually a not bad boy.
"Thank you. ”
She smiled and raised her right hand to point to the winding path.
"It's getting late, can you go?"
"It's not...... Summer and Autumn ......"
Wang Jianxin was reluctant and wanted to say something.
"Brother Jianxin, I think this summer and autumn is to fix you. ”
Xia Wangcai finally couldn't bear it anymore, and glared at Xia Qiu viciously.
"Xia Qiu, you little girl, you are not big, and there are so many ghost ideas for the whole person. ”
Wang Jianxin rushed over angrily and punched Xia Wangcai's body.
"You shut up for me, Xia Qiu is such a kind and lovely girl, how can she fix me?"
He scolded Xia Wangcai angrily, and stunned Xia Wangcai.
After scolding Xia Wangcai, he turned to Xia Qiu with a smile.
"Xia Qiu, I know, you are testing me, when I pass the test, you will agree to be my girlfriend, right?"
Xia Qiu smiled silently, did not deny it, and did not admit it.
"If you don't want to leave, go and help me water the vegetable patch in Shuziao?"
It is said that the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, starve their muscles and bones, and work their bodies and skin. The first step in transforming Wang Jianxin is to let him endure hardships and let him suffer a lot.
Before her words could be spoken, Xia Wangcai jumped out.
"Brother Jianxin, don't listen to this girl's film, she is really playing with you. ”
"Well, if you don't want to, forget it, anyway, you're a little rascal who doesn't know anything and only knows how to be idle all day long. ”
Xia Qiu didn't care, waved his hand, and was about to enter the house instead.
Xia Wangcai was punched by Wang Jianxin again without any suspense.
"What do you know? I think you just have a grudge against Xia Qiu and don't want me to chase Xia Qiu. ”
Xia Wangcai cried with a sad face, only feeling that this world was ...... It's really unfair. He now deeply feels that he is really wrong to chase Wang Jianxin after Xia Qiu. This is not to dig a dark pit for Xia Qiu, but to dig a pit for himself, and this pit will have to bury himself sooner or later.
So, one of the two teenagers carried two buckets, and the other held a scoop, like a little follower, following Xia Qiu and walking in the sunset.
However, in the past day, the seeds that were sown yesterday have not yet germinated. Xia Qiu found a clean stone, sat on the stone leisurely, instructed Wang Jianxin to carry water, and taught him how to water the seeds by the way.
After such a busy time, the sky is gradually getting dark.
On the way home, Xia Qiu, as when he came, kept a distance of two meters from Wang Jianxin.
Xia Wangcai and Wang Jianxin were both exhausted, and their souls seemed to be half gone.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, and they were still some distance away from their homes, Xia Wangcai suddenly came up with a sinister idea.
He pulled Wang Jianxin, leaned into his ear, and whispered: "Brother Jianxin, you see that it's dark now, and there is no one around, why don't we drag Xia Qiu back to the tree and take care of her?"
Wang Jianxin was already so tired that it seemed that his feet were not his feet, and his hands were not his hands, and when he heard Xia Wangcai's proposal, he suddenly sobered up.
