Chapter 249: I Don't Want to Go (Fourth Watch)
At noon, Lichen was covered in mud, and Xiaoxiao was very distressed when he looked at him so hard, but he also knew Lichen's identity, and in the event of a disaster, they were at the forefront of the soldiers.
At noon, they ate porridge with wild vegetables, but the men had to work, and each of them was given two extra pancakes.
When Lichen finished drinking, Xiaoxiao called him out of the temple and pulled him into the bushes.
"What's the matter?" Lichen didn't know what Xiaoxiao was going to do.
I saw Xiaoxiao take out something wrapped in oiled paper from his pocket, and when he opened the oiled paper, there were a few pieces of jerky inside.
"There are only a few pieces left, I'm afraid that others will say that you eat alone." Pick up a piece and stuff it into Lichen's mouth.
Lichen looked at Xiaoxiao happily while eating, sure enough, it was good to have a daughter-in-law, since his mother passed away, no one cared about him no matter how hard and tired he was, but now that Xiaoxiao is here, it is different, and his heart is warm.
"Have you eaten?" Ate a piece and asked her.
"I've eaten it, I can't eat the rest, it's not enough to feed others, and I can't let it go for too long in this hot weather. The jerky was brought here before, and it had been put away for several days, but fortunately, it was not broken in the refrigerator in the space.
"I've been busy these days, but I've asked people to clean up the sanitation station in the morning, and tomorrow the ground will be dry, you go back and see if you can live in it, if it doesn't work over there, we will live in a small courtyard by the sea, where it is only a little flooded, it should be the reason for the higher terrain, that is, the ground is dirty, because there is nothing to avoid being flooded."
Said as he ate.
Xiaoxiao keeps an eye on the side, afraid that others will find out about it.
casually responded: "Don't worry, anyway, everyone hasn't gone down the mountain yet." β
After eating, Lichen was a little annoyed: "There are a few houses in the village, but those houses are very dilapidated, and you know that there is no money in the brigade, but those families still allocated some money and made some efforts to help build houses, otherwise there are people in the family ......who don't even have a place to live."
Speaking of this, Lichen's face became solemn again, under this rain, it was not rich here, but now it is even poorer.
"Xiaoxiao, or ...... Go back. He said hesitantly
"Don't!" Xiaoxiao refused directly without thinking about it, "Why do you want me to go back again, I don't want to go back now that there are so many sick people in the village." β
You can't run when it's difficult, and Lichen is still here, she knows very well why Lichen wants her to go at this time.
"Now is the time when you are busy, I can help the people in the village if I stay, and if I leave now, what will others say about me, they will definitely say behind my back that I am afraid of hardship, and the village will leave immediately if something happens now, it is too unrighteous. Anyway, I won't listen to you what you say this time, unless you tie me up and let people go, then I don't care about you and don't want to marry you again in the future!"
A little annoyed with his cheeks, he kept asking her to get out of here.
Seeing that Xiaoxiao was really angry, Lichen hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I just don't want you to suffer with me here, I respect you, stay where you want, don't be annoyed anymore, just because I just said the wrong thing." After speaking, he pulled Xiaoxiao into his arms.
Xiaoxiao was angry at this time, and the two of them hugged for a long time, enjoying the warmth of this moment.
When Lichen left, Xiaoxiao looked at his back, this man had a responsibility on his shoulders, so he was afraid that he was too busy to take care of her, so he kept thinking about letting her leave here, but she didn't want to live a comfortable life in her hometown but Lichen was very busy and tired here, just like this accident, he didn't really sleep well in the past few days.
When I returned, Xiaoxiao was boiling medicine, and it didn't take long for Xiaoshan to come over.
"Auntie, some people say ......"
Seeing him hesitating, Xiaoxiao asked, "What's the matter, why don't you dare to say it like this." β
The child didn't have much thought, so he couldn't hide his words and said, "They said that you were with a man in broad daylight, and what was it, right!" Indiscretion! I don't know what misconduct is, but I know it's bad for you anyway. β
Xiaoxiao frowned, Xiaoshan was still young, but she could also hear that they were talking about her, could it be that she was seen when she was with Lichen in the forest just now, but she was with Lichen, not with others.
But to slander her behind her back, I don't know who it is, but Xiaoxiao won't let people talk about her like this.
Touching Xiaoshan's head and said: "Auntie is with my uncle, my uncle's clothes were dirty at that time, I helped him sweep the dirt on his clothes, that person's eyes are not good, he saw it wrong, do you know who is talking nonsense behind his back?" β
"That's what Sister Xiaocui said, she went to dig wild vegetables in the forest and saw you hugging people."
"It's her ...... again"
Xiaoxiao's eyes narrowed, this woman was too much, she bullied her again and again, she was not easy to mess with, since she dared to slander her reputation, then don't blame her for being rude, since she didn't want to marry Ye Daniu, then she preferred him to marry her.
"Xiaoshan, you wait and help your aunt tell everyone that at that time, your aunt was helping Lichen clean up the clothes and dirty things, not with others, if you don't believe it, let everyone ask you Uncle Lichen."
Xiaoshan nodded after listening, "I just said that my aunt won't be with others, hehe, my aunt will have a baby with my uncle in the future." β
"Stinky boy, who taught you this, go quickly! I'll get you something to eat when I get back. β
A finger tapped his forehead, and the country child was bold enough to say anything.
Xiaoshan laughed and ran away.
After Xiaoxiao left, his eyes sank, that Ye Xiaocui didn't marry for a day, she would definitely not stop for a day, she dared to harm her last time, she would definitely not spare her this time.
Then Xiaoxiao entered the space, and when he came out, he had an extra bag of medicinal powder in his hand.
At noon, it was still wild vegetable porridge, but it was added with mushroom fungus picked by everyone, which looked very delicious, and even Xiaoxiao drank most of the bowl, and she still shared the rest with Xiaoshan to eat.
By the time of the lunch break, most of the people went to sleep, and now the men and women clean the flooded houses in the morning, and the men go to clean the crops. The people who work are very tired and will squint for a while at noon, after Xiaoxiao boiled the medicine for a few patients and gave them to drink, her eyes glanced at Ye Xiaocui pouring water, it was estimated that she was thirsty, Xiaoxiao felt that her opportunity had come.
Walk quickly in front of her.
"Why do you want to ruin my reputation behind my back, last time you let the boat row away first, I haven't counted it with you yet, and today you are talking bad about me behind my back, at that time I was with Brother Lichen, I was his fiancΓ©e, can't I be alone with him!" Xiaoxiao scolded with a straight face, this time she will no longer care about her identity as the daughter of the village chief, Lichen is Lichen, she is her, and she doesn't have to work with the old village chief.
