Chapter 018 can be entrusted for life
In the evening, the family rested.
Jiaojiao couldn't sleep, she was lying on the bed, but she was still holding the hairpin that Li Chengda gave her during the day, under the dim candlelight, the butterfly on the hairpin was still lifelike, it was really beautiful.
Jiaojiao put away the hairpin very carefully, and then remembered Li Chengda again, she remembered that when she saw him for the first time, he was so tall, and there was a word engraved on his forehead, which only made her a little afraid of him, and after he spent money to take himself away, that fear almost reached its peak, but then he did not bully her, and even left her delicious food, and sent her back, Jiaojiao only felt a little messy in his heart when he thought of this, and he also said that he would not let her follow him, So what is it for him to run to his house twice in three days now?
Jiaojiao sighed softly, and remembered the difficulties that his second brother Cheng Yuanqiao had done to him, and it was rare that he had an open-minded temperament, and he never took Cheng Yuanqiao's sarcasm to heart, and he was still diligent every day, no matter how tired he worked, he never listened to him complain, and even his father praised him in private.
Jiaojiao thought about these vaguely, and when the sleepiness hit, she finally fell asleep slowly.
In the evening.
But there are still no fewer people on the ridges, and they are all busy.
Cheng's family has a lot of labor, plus Li Chengda's help, compared to the work of others, it is naturally faster, this schedule of the old man and Cheng's mother have gone home early to rest, and several daughters-in-law have not gone to the ground, Cheng Yuanshan accompanied his daughter-in-law back to her parents' house early this morning, Yin's father and mother asked someone to bring a letter yesterday, and it was also to catch up with the autumn harvest, there is a lot of work at home, and I want my daughter and son-in-law to go back to help one or two, Cheng Yuanshan saw that the work at home has been done seventy-seven eighty-eight, and Li Chengda is there, so he took his daughter-in-law to his father-in-law's house to help, and he has not come back yet, It is the only three people left in the ridge of the Cheng family, Cheng Yuanqiao, Cheng Yuanshi and Li Chengda.
Cheng Yuanqiao loves to be lazy at work, his parents and eldest brother have to be more or less scruples about him before, but now he and the third child are left, he has no scruples, he has been wandering around the ridges all day, and now he looks at the sky, only the third child who is still working, and said to Li Chengda: "Cheng San, the rest of the work will be handed over to you, and I will go back with the third child first." ”
Li Chengda was only busy facing the loess, and listening to Cheng Yuanqiao's words, he only said one word: "Okay." ”
Cheng Yuanshi was a little reluctant, and said to Cheng Yuanqiao: "Second brother, this is not good." ”
"What's not good," Cheng Yuanqiao glared at his younger brother, "Don't forget, we gave him silver, let's go, while it's still early, our brothers will go to the wine shop at the head of the village to have a drink, I'm tired these days." ”
Although the third Cheng Yuanshi also married a daughter-in-law, he was still young, only eighteen years old, and he couldn't stand Cheng Yuanqiao's pruning, so he still followed Cheng Yuanqiao out of Tianlong and walked towards the village.
Jiaojiao was carrying a kettle, and was about to go to deliver water to the men working in the field, but as soon as she went to the ridge, she saw her second brother and third brother talking and laughing, looking very comfortable, and then looking at her own field, only Li Chengda was busy there.
Jiaojiao didn't know where her two brothers were going, so she just watched Cheng Yuanqiao and Cheng Yuanshi walk through the ridges and towards the wine shop at the head of the village.
After the two brothers walked away, Jiaojiao's eyes looked at Li Chengda again, and saw that Li Chengda had already stood up straight from the ground, Jiaojiao looked a little panicked in her heart, and only hid her body behind a tree, she didn't know why she was hiding, but she felt that her heart was beating a little hard, as if she was afraid of being seen by him.
Li Chengda finished the work in the field, carried the sickle and walked out of the field, he was really tired all day, he didn't notice Jiaojiao, only thought in his heart to go to Wu Si's house to drink a few sips of water, and then change this stinky sweaty clothes, find a way to go to Cheng's house at night to sit, maybe you can see the little girl.
When passing by a field, Li Chengda noticed a pair of old men and old women, both of them were already in the year of the wind and candles, but they were still working in the field, the old man was walking in front of the plow, and the old lady was following behind, looking at this scene, Li Chengda couldn't help but stop, looking at the old man was simply shaky, but for that ration he still gritted his teeth and ploughed the ground step by step, Li Chengda himself was also from a bitter background, and when he saw this old man, he remembered his father, and he just sighed in his heart at the moment, and simply put the sickle aside, Just like that, he entered someone's field, and couldn't help but say that he took the plow from the old man and carried it on his own body, and helped the two old men plough the acre of land, which made the old man and the old lady very grateful, and followed Li Chengda vigorously, helping him to do it, while constantly thanking him there.
Jiaojiao stood behind the tree, only to see this scene clearly, for that family Jiaojiao also knows, the old man and the old lady have no children and no daughters, the evening scene is quite bleak, and there are occasionally people in the village to help the old people do some work, but now that the autumn harvest is coming, every household is not even busy with their own work, how can there be that kung fu to help these two old people? Even her own two elder brothers passed by as if they hadn't seen it, only Li Chengda stopped.
Jiaojiao stood there and looked at Li Chengda in a daze, just looked at it for a long time, she looked at the old lady bringing the kettle, Li Chengda seemed to be very thirsty, and then he drank it in a big gulp, the old man didn't know what to say to him, he just laughed, his smile was as hearty as ever, looking at his smile, Jiaojiao but somehow, she had a distress from the bottom of her heart, and vaguely gave birth to a thought, such a man can be entrusted for life.
Jiaojiao was only startled by her own thoughts, and she didn't understand why she had such thoughts, but looking at Li Chengda, she really thought so, she felt that he was a good person and a good man.
