Chapter 28: Not on purpose
"What are you afraid of, he just said that he wants to move around more, and you say that others are good, even if someone sees it in his ears, he won't say anything." With that, Duran grabbed his hand and walked forward.
Subconsciously, Gu Youan clenched her hand and led her to Boss Du's vegetable patch.
In the field adjacent to Du Lao's vegetable field, a woman wearing a hat was hoeing weeds, and when she heard footsteps, she raised her head to look at it.
Seeing Gu Youan and Duran, his face was stunned at first, and then he raised a smile: "It turned out to be Youan and Duran." ”
Gu Youan saw the stunned on Aunt Zhang's face, thinking that the people in the village must have heard the news that Du Lan had regained his senses, and now he was still taken aback when he saw his radiant appearance.
He greeted with a smile: "Aunt Zhang is busy." Duran and I wanted to catch some earthworms in the uncle's vegetable patch. ”
"Catch earthworms?" Aunt Zhang's puzzled gaze looked back and forth on them.
"Yes, Aunt Zhang, we plan to catch it as bait, can you borrow me a hoe?" Duran ignored her strange gaze and spoke.
"Yes, yes, you can use it." She smiled and handed over the hoe, she heard that Duran and Gu You'an went back in disheveled clothes yesterday, and the group of children said that they had gone to the river to catch fish.
Duran gratefully took the hoe and turned up the dirt in the gap in the vegetable patch.
In early summer, earthworms can be seen everywhere after the soil has been turned over.
"You'an, hurry up and catch it." Duran urged.
Gu Youan furrowed his brows and leaned over to pick it up.
As the temperature got hotter, Duran turned the soil hard, and after a while, his face was sweating.
Gu Youan raised his head from time to time, saw her constantly wiping her sweat, straightened up, and said, "Either I'll turn over the soil, and you can pick up earthworms." ”
"No, earthworms are so disgusting that they are slippery and non-slippery, can you bear to let me do this kind of thing at a girl's house?"
Gu Youan's face was stunned, this sounds a little wrong, is it appropriate for him to let a girl's house turn over the earth?
"Didn't you keep me exercising? So I'll dig through the dirt. He said stubbornly.
"I don't want to wear you out." As he spoke, the hoe in Duran's hand smashed into the soil again, and Grandpa Gu should be distressed again.
Aunt Zhang next to her looked at the two of them, you love each other, and they are considerate of each other, and immediately laughed happily.
Gu Youan smiled, Duran was open-mouthed, as if something had happened between them.
The hoe in Duran's hand paused, and suddenly he felt that what he said was too ambiguous...... It's really easy to misunderstand.
The two of them looked for earthworms and caught earthworms, and after a while, they caught a lot.
Duran returned Aunt Zhang's hoe and thanked him: "Aunt Zhang, when I make sweet and sour fish, I'll give you a taste." ”
Aunt Zhang looked confused, "What is sweet and sour fish?" ”
Gu Youan replied with a smile, "Sour and sweet roasted fish." ”
"It's sweet and sour, what a strange smell." Aunt Zhang looked puzzled.
Duran replied with a smile: "It's fried tomatoes, you'll know when you taste it." ”
After returning the hoe, Duran and Gu Youan went out of the vegetable field, and Aunt Zhang chased after him again and handed Duran a cloth bag.
Duran opened it and saw that it was a bag of tomatoes, she turned around to make sweet and sour fish and needed tomatoes, accepted these tomatoes, Duran thanked Aunt Zhang gratefully and walked to the river with Gu Youan.
came to the river, threw the earthworms into three sacks, and then threw the sacks into the river, and then led the ropes at both ends of the river bank with Gu Youan, leaned down, and let the sacks float against the current, so that the earthworms would not be washed out.
And they waited motionlessly for the fish to feed.
After a while, Duran felt the rope tremble, and she was silent until the rope was a little stretched, and then she hurriedly called Gu Youan to close the rope.
The two quickly straightened up, pulled the rope tight, and raised it.
Duran tightened the rope and stepped on the stones in the river to get closer to the sack, and Gu Youan also approached the sack, but he felt quite struggling to walk.
The two of them took up the sack at the same time, and looked inside, the dense fish were jumping around, and there were more than 30 large and small in each sack.
Duran couldn't help but laugh.
Gu Youan was carrying a heavy sack, and a happy smile appeared on his sweaty face.
"Thank you for your hard work." Duran tugged the sack to his side, allowing himself to carry most of the weight.
Gu Youan pulled him again, "It's not too heavy, you don't have to accommodate me." ”
"That's okay, the three sacks add up to a hundred and ten catties." As he spoke, Duran insisted on dragging him to his side.
When they came to the shore, they tied the mouth of the bag firmly with hemp rope, and then found a wooden stick with a thick wrist to carry the sack, and the two of them carried it home.
The fish kept struggling in the bag, causing the center of gravity of the burden to continue to shift, Gu Youan struggled to hold the wooden stick, and suddenly his feet slipped, and his body leaned forward rapidly.
"Oops!" Without warning, Duran was knocked down by him.
Gu Youan panicked and hurriedly supported the ground with his hands, Duran turned his head and looked at him in shock, "What's wrong?" ”
"I ...... Slippery underfoot...... Not intentionally. His face was red and his heart was beating, and he didn't dare to look Duran in the eye.
"Oh." Duran turned her face away unnaturally, and her heart beat faster inexplicably in the face of the handsome face that was close at hand.
Gu You'an's mind was so dazed that he forgot to get up.
