"Cheng Qiao, where are you going?"
Just as they were passing a ridge, they heard a familiar voice. Cheng Qiao leaned over and saw that it was Han Chunmei. There were blood marks on her hands and face, which were small cuts made by corn leaves.
"Sister Chunmei, this is for you."
Ever since Cheng Qiao had the space, he got used to carrying a cloth bag, which made it convenient to take things out. He also put the two lunch boxes in the cloth bag so that no one could see them.
"Working gloves, Cheng Qiao, where did you get them from?"
Han Chunmei became excited. This thing was very difficult to get. She didn't know how Cheng Qiao got it.
"Shh, I originally prepared it for myself, but now the village chief wants me to rest, so I don't need it anymore. You can use it first."
"Cheng Qiao, thank you. By the way, where are you going?"
"I'm going to visit my future mother-in-law. I have to establish a good relationship with her."
"Well, go ahead, but don't be too obedient, or you'll suffer in the future."
"Got it. I'm leaving now."
Han Chunmei put on gloves with a smile and started working again. Several villagers nearby and Xu Laidie all had envious eyes.
Cheng Qiao hurried to where Li's mother was working, but before he saw her, he heard some sarcastic words and could not help but stop:
"Mother of Erliuzi, I heard that your Erliuzi went to the educated youth camp to propose marriage and gave a betrothal gift of 200 yuan. Where did your family get the 200 yuan? Did you use the educated youth Cheng's 300 yuan as the betrothal gift?"
"Yes, yes. I heard that your scoundrel extorted 300 yuan from Accountant Chen. How come he only gave 200 yuan as a betrothal gift? You can even eat big meat buns now. You wouldn't have embezzled the 100 yuan, would you?"
"Oh my god, how could your second-rate guy be so heartless? Cheng Zhiqing really can't keep the three hundred yuan. It's really pitiful."
"And the second-rate guy seemed to be riding a bicycle. Could it be that this bicycle was also bought by the idiot Cheng Zhiqing? The second-rate guy is very calculating."
Mother Li was so angry that her eyes turned red. Just as she was about to speak, Li Le angrily scolded her, "Bullshit, my mother would never embezzle my second sister-in-law's money. Unlike you, you always bully your own daughter-in-law. You are the black-hearted ones."
"She is indeed the second-rate guy's sister. She wants to be someone's daughter-in-law at such a young age. Hahaha..."
"you… "
Li Le wanted to rush up and punch the village woman, but was stopped by a pleasant voice: "Le Le, if a dog bites you, do you want to bite it back?"
The village woman quickly raised her head, wanting to see who dared to say such bad words, but when she saw the thick gauze on Cheng Qiao's forehead, she was stunned for a moment.
"You are Aunt Lotus, right? How about I give you three hundred dollars, let your daughter marry a second-rate guy, and then poke a hole in this place with a stone?"
Cheng Qiao pointed at his forehead and looked at the village woman with unfriendly eyes. Her name was quite kind, but her heart was not very good.
Aunt Lianhua blushed. She was just jealous and said a few words. How could a good girl marry a second-rate guy and be forced to disfigure herself? When she didn't know how to answer, Cheng Qiao spoke again.
"You are Aunt Daya, right? You said that the second-rate guy extorted three hundred yuan from Accountant Chen. How did he do it? Tell me, I would not dare to marry a man like that even if he embraced me."
Aunt Daya's face turned pale instantly. She was just saying a few words to help Zhaodi. If Cheng Qiao really didn't want to marry Erliuzi because of what she said, then this scoundrel Erliuzi would definitely let her know why the flowers were so red.
"Cheng Zhiqing, my mother just said it casually, don't take it seriously."
Daya's daughter Miao Qing quickly spoke up for her mother. Cheng Qiao looked at Miao Qing and narrowed her eyes. This Miao Qing had hit herself on the back with a stone in her previous life.
"Ah... what are you doing?"
Cheng Qiao picked up a stone from the ground and, while Miao Qing was not paying attention, smashed it hard on her lower back, causing Miao Qing to scream in pain.
When Aunt Daya saw her daughter being taken advantage of, she rushed over, stood in front of Miao Qing, and shouted:
"Cheng Zhiqing, how could you hit someone?"
"Oh, Aunt Daya, I just smashed it casually, don't take it seriously."
"you… "
Miao Qing endured the pain in his back, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to fight with Cheng Qiao. When Li's mother and Li Le saw this, they also stood in front of Cheng Qiao, and it seemed that a fight was inevitable.
"What are you all doing!?"
The village chief's voice came in time. Miao Qing was stunned for a moment, then turned around and ran to the village chief: "Village chief, look at Cheng Zhiqing, he beats people up when he disagrees with others. In the future, our villagers will be bullied to death by these educated youths."
The village chief glanced at Miao Qing, then at Cheng Qiao. When his eyes met the white gauze on her forehead, his anger suddenly subsided.
"Cheng Zhiqing, didn't I tell you to have a good rest? Why are you here?"
"Village chief, my future mother-in-law gave me a betrothal gift today. I didn't even have breakfast, so I gave her the nutritious meat buns I bought at the hospital. But Aunt Daya slandered her for extorting money."
Aunt Daya's heart shuddered. She felt so sour when she said it, but what should she do now
"It was the old woman Daya who was talking nonsense, but why did you hit Miao Qing with a stone?"
"Oh, village chief, Miao Qing said her mother just said it casually and asked me not to take it seriously, so I just smashed it casually, so sister Miao Qing, don't take it seriously."
"you… "
Miao Qing was so angry that he wanted to pounce on her again. Before Li's mother could move, Cheng Qiao ran to Miao Qing, pointed at the gauze on his forehead, and muttered that another person was going to give him money.
"Miao Qing, don't be fooled, this little hoof is very bad."
Aunt Daya grabbed her daughter and whispered in her ear. Miao Qing came back to her senses instantly. Looking at Cheng Qiao's face which looked like "Come on, why don't you come and hit me", she gritted her teeth in anger and told herself to endure it.
Village chief: “…￥%…”
This child has turned bad. He really hopes that Cheng Qiao is still the same Cheng Qiao, who is a little naive but does not cause trouble.
"Have you seen all the excitement? You don't even want centimeters anymore, do you?"
The village chief shouted again, his voice breaking.
"Let's go, let's go to work."
"Village chief, don't worry, I'll go to work in the fields right away."
"Village chief, Aunt Daya must apologize to my future mother-in-law. Otherwise, wouldn't it be enough to drive people to death if anyone just said that casually?" Cheng Qiao stopped the village chief who wanted to leave and said aggrievedly.
"I'll say it again, the three hundred yuan is Chen Chunhua's compensation to Cheng Zhiqing for medical expenses and losses. If anyone dares to talk nonsense again, I'll show you how I'll deal with her."
The village chief looked at Aunt Daya with sharp eyes. Aunt Daya also came to her senses. She quickly smiled flatteringly at Li's mother, said sorry, and pulled Miao Qing to leave.
Miao Qing opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, so he could only turn around and look at Cheng Qiao, with a hint of gloom in his eyes. Cheng Qiao raised his head and glanced at Miao Qing, his meaning was very clear: if he had the guts, come over and fight.
