Zhou Yuan coughed and said, "You can't tell others about this, but Brother Lin, you're one of your own, so it doesn't matter if you hear it. But Xiaoshu is strictly forbidden to tell it, you—"

"Of course I won't say it!" Lin Fang gave him a blank look.

Under his aggressive and sharp eyes, Zhou Yuan had no choice but to tell Lin Fang the whole story. Under Lin Fang's questioning, he even had to talk about what happened on the day of the temple fair.

After hearing this, Lin Fang couldn't help laughing, and laughed at him.

Although his words were ambiguous, Lin Fang knew very well how good the relationship between Xiao Shu and her baby sister was. She is smart, has a good kung fu, and has such a personality. ! I'm afraid this Zhou Yuan has suffered a lot in her hands!

Hey, wow! Why are you so relieved? All the depression in the chest really disappeared.

Zhou Yuan was very displeased by his teasing, so he also sarcastically said: "Don't just laugh at me, I see Xiao Shu's face towards you today, hehe, it doesn't seem too good-looking..."

One sentence hit Lin Fang's Achilles' heel, and Lin Fang couldn't laugh anymore.

Zhou Yuan gloated and said, "You must have offended her somewhere! Besides, you still don't seem to be able to figure it out, do you?"

Lin Fang looked at him without saying a word. I couldn't help thinking in my heart: Could it be that I didn't pay attention to provoking Xiaoshu's anger? But I obviously haven't seen her for a long time, how could I offend her...

Zhou Yuan glanced at Lin Fang, who was thinking hard and couldn't figure it out, and felt very happy in his heart, so he kindly said, "Why don't you tell me, maybe I can know why?"

"Just you?" Lin Fang was extremely contemptuous.

"Of course!" Zhou Yuan said: "The authorities are confused by the bystanders!"

Lin Fang didn't want to say it at first, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but say it anyway.

In the end, just like what he asked Zhou Yuan, he even vaguely said about the shameful cockfight on the day of the temple fair. He only said that since that day, he has been busy at home and has no time to come out. He didn’t have time until today Come to see her, who knows she will be annoyed...

Zhou Yuan couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this, Lin Fang's expression was so ugly, he pursed his lips and stood aside with a sullen expression.

"It's no wonder," Zhou Yuan said, "I think she must have been very angry that day?"

Lin Fangbai glanced at him without saying a word, and thought to himself, isn't this nonsense? I told you just now and you still ask!

Zhou Yuan said: "It's a pity, I think she must have misunderstood you! I think you didn't catch up to explain, but you disappeared for so long and ignored her! Think about it, now that you suddenly appeared, how could she Are you not annoyed? You must think that you don't pay enough attention to her!"

"Is that so?" Lin Fang was stunned, and hurriedly said: "But I also wanted to catch up at the time, but I couldn't help it, my third brother—"

"But she doesn't know!" Zhou Yuan said firmly: "In her eyes, you did it on purpose! You deliberately didn't take her seriously, didn't even give an explanation, appeared when you wanted to appear, and disappeared when you wanted to appear Just disappear, how can she bear it?"

"..." Lin Fang moved his lips, feeling speechless.

Zhou Yuan patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "But it's okay. Now that I know the crux, why don't you explain it to her later? As long as the explanation is clear, the matter will be fine!"

Lin Anxin actually believed more than half of it in his heart, but he couldn't help but harden his mouth, and hummed: "Then we have to see if it's the case..."

Zhou Yuan gave him a dark look, then followed his words and nodded: "You are right, you should make sure first—by the way, are you still coming tomorrow?"

"Of course!" Lin Fang said, "I'll go to their house tomorrow! Anyway, I have a good relationship with their family, so it's normal to go there when I have time!"

Zhou Yuan was all envious, and hurriedly said: "Then you wait for me, and I will go with you..."

Seeing Lin Fang staring at him, he said awkwardly, "After all, it's okay for the two of us to have a companion, what do you think?"

Lin Fang thought for a while, finally nodded and said, "Then, okay..."

Zhou Yuan was overjoyed, and flattered him for a while. The two agreed on a time and said goodbye to each other.

When Lu Xiaoshu returned home, he saw his old lady coming out of the house with a relaxed expression and a smile on her face. Seeing her, she smiled and said angrily, "You girl, where have you been all morning?"

"I didn't go anywhere... Mother looks radiant today, and she looks in a good mood! Mother, is there something good? Telling it makes me happy too!" Lu Xiaoshu smiled and said clinging to her.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! It's so hot!" Miao Cuilan chased her angrily, and said with a smile, "Hurry up and wash your face and go into the house to rest, you, but you talk too much! Mother is not free today, this afternoon You and your sister brought tea to your father and the others, and these days it's our family and Sister-in-law Li's turn to deliver it!"

Lu Xiaoshu let out an "oh", obediently washed his hands and entered the room.

Two deep water sources in the deep mountains have been found. Mr. Wu led the line from the water sources according to the distribution of the farmland. Now everyone is hurrying and busy. The work to block the dam and build a temporary reservoir is also going on simultaneously.

In today's weather, the sun is so hot that it can scorch people. Some experienced farmers have already keenly felt the abnormal climate this year.

No one dared to neglect the matter of repairing the canal.

After entering the house, my sister Xiaoxue also said with a smile on her face, "You're back? Are you thirsty? Drink some water!"

"Sister!" Lu Xiaoshu understood that Zhou Yuan really wasn't lying when he saw her expression of stretching her eyebrows, so he huddled next to Xiaoxue and pestered her while drinking water.

Xiaoxue felt a little hot on his face, which was embarrassing. But this matter was finally resolved properly, and she was very happy in her heart, so she whispered to Lu Xiaoshu, "It's a fluke, but the Zhou family suddenly changed their minds, Sister Li Hua also returned my handkerchief, and I still He hinted that his family should rest assured that the Zhou family will not talk nonsense about this matter... What a luck, what a luck!"

Thinking of it, Xiaoxue still felt like a dream.

"That's good!" Lu Xiaoshu said with a smile: "It can be seen that good people will be rewarded! Sister, you are a very good person, God will definitely not treat you badly! Sister will definitely find a unparalleled husband in the future!"

"Little girl, dare to make fun of me!" Xiaoxue's face became hot, she gritted her teeth and pulled her to tickle her, Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly laughed and begged for mercy and ran away to avoid it, the two sisters laughed and made a fuss.

The next day, Lin Fang and Zhou Yuan came to Lu's house again.

Both were a little nervous.

Lin Fang was nervous because he was afraid that he would be taught a lesson by Lu Xiaoshu again, he couldn't understand that smelly girl's temper very clearly! If the stinky girl is still persistent, maybe how long she can ignore him!

It was Zhou Yuan's first encounter with the "mother-in-law's home", so why not be nervous? I don't know where to put my hands and feet!

"Look, that big courtyard in front is the Lu family." Lin Fang said while poking Zhou Yuannu's mouth with his elbow.

"Oh, where is the Lu family! The location of this house is very good, very good, with the mountains behind it, and it's cool in summer..." Zhou Yuan said.

"There's also a canal running through the back of the yard. It's too far away to see clearly... Lu's family makes tofu, and their tofu is very famous in Guxi Town." Lin Fang said again.

"Yeah?"

"That is."

The two of them walked all the way without oil and salt, chatting about gossips that they didn't know why they were talking, and their pace slowed down unknowingly.

There was an indescribable but palpable hesitation in his tone and footsteps.

In fact, Zhou Yuan is better in comparison, he is the first time to come to the door, and there is Lin Fang as a shield next to him; Lin Fang's heart is about to jump out, but he is too embarrassed to stop, so he has to bite the bullet and take one step at a time Walk towards Lu's house.

Just when they were about to reach the door, the yard door was pushed open from the inside with a "squeak" sound, both of them were startled, and they all stopped in their tracks.

Taking a closer look, it was a clean and neatly dressed middle-aged woman who came out from inside, it was Miao Cuilan.

Lin Fang let go of the breath he raised, and hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "Aunt Lu!"

"Hehe, it's Lin Fang! I haven't seen you for a long time!" Miao Cuilan said with a smile.

"Lu, Aunt Lu!" Zhou Yuan couldn't help but smile a little on his chubby face, looking a little nervous and stiff.

"This is—" Miao Cuilan couldn't help being surprised.

Lin Fang hurriedly smiled and said: "Oh, this is my distant cousin Zheng Yuan, it's fine to come out with me for a walk as a guest at our house—by the way, are Aqi and the others at home?"

Now the villages and villages in Guxi Town are building canals and reservoirs. It has been a long time since Lu Qi went to the pier, and he is also helping in the village.

Miao Cuilan suddenly realized, nodded to Zhou Yuan with a friendly smile, and said, "Ah Qi went to Daqing Mountain with his father and the villagers, and Xiaoxue and Xiaoshu went to deliver pancakes and tea to them, not long ago. Ha ha, come, come in and sit down!"

"No, no!" Lin Fang felt itchy when he heard that Xiao Shu had just left, and he laughed quickly: "Anyway, we have nothing to do when we are idle, why don't we go to Daqingshan to see if we can help you?" Busy!" Lin Fang said while looking at Zhou Yuan, who nodded repeatedly.

Lin Fang asked Miao Cuilan how to get there.

Miao Cuilan was used to seeing him, so she didn't doubt that she was going elsewhere, so she smiled and pointed him in the direction, glanced at the clothes on the two of them, and couldn't help laughing: "It's a pity that you are wearing this clothes. Silk and satin, where do you go on mountain roads? Be careful on the road, it’s a pity that hooks and thorns cut the thread!”

Lin Fang responded with a smile, and hurriedly left with Zhou Yuan.

Lin Fang didn't feel anything, but after leaving the village, Zhou Yuan became a little out of breath. The more you go to Daqingshan, the more difficult the road is. It is bumpy and rugged. When Zhou Yuan was young, his family saw it as expensive as an eyeball. How could he get used to this kind of road
