Yuan Hao and Xiaopang were helping Uncle Zhang lift the water tank with fish onto the bullock cart. From time to time, villagers carrying hoes passed by and nodded to Uncle Zhang to say hello.
Yuan Hao and Xiaopang had just put two beetroots filled with Bisanxi on the oxcart when a sneaky figure came near Uncle Zhang's house. Seeing no one around, he sneaked up to Yuan Hao and deliberately lowered his voice. A loud voice called: "Yuan Hao, hasn't your sister returned yet?"
Someone suddenly made a sound behind them. Both Yuan Hao and Xiaopang were startled. Xiaopang was even more timid. When he turned around and saw Liu Wenxuan, he immediately said angrily: "Why are you walking so silently? It's so early in the morning. I thought I saw a ghost." Xiaopang has always looked down on Liu Wenxuan, disgusted with his bad conduct and dark heart.
Yuan Hao hated Liu Wenxuan so much that the last time he knelt outside his house at night, it took him a long time to resist the urge to grab a stick and rush out to beat him.
"What are you doing here?" Yuan Hao asked angrily.
Liu Wenxuan laughed dryly and asked cautiously: "Yuanhao, has your sister not returned from the magistrate's office?"
Before Yuan Hao could say anything, Xiaopang jumped in and said, "What does it have to do with you whether you reply or not? What you should be concerned about is Jiang Chunyan."
After all, Xiaopang was one year older than Yuan Hao, and he had his parents taking care of him. He thought more and spoke more boldly. What he said gave Yuan Hao a wake-up call.
Yuan Hao caught a glimpse of two figures walking towards them from the corner of his eye, and he deliberately responded loudly: "Brother Liu, my sister said that even if you kneel in front of my house again, my sister will never look at you again. With one glance, you hope that brother Liu will pay attention to his identity and not to ruin my sister's reputation, let alone bring unnecessary disaster to my sister."
Yuan Hao's voice was neither loud nor quiet, but it was enough to convey these words clearly to the ears of others, not to mention that he was the two loudspeakers in the village who liked to meddle in other people's business and spread news.
Liu Wenxuan was not stupid. He naturally understood what Yuan Hao meant by saying this. He also saw the two talkative women who cast strange eyes on him. He secretly thought to himself, "Oh no!" In less than half a day, he had knelt before Yuan Hao. What happens at Qiu's doorstep will spread throughout Xipo Village.
He was anxious and blurted out: "Yuanhao, what are you talking about? How often have I done this? I just saw you two kids struggling to move things, and I wanted to help you. Why did you rake it?"
Xiaopang is also a smart person. After listening to Yuan Hao's words, he already understood what Yuan Hao meant and immediately choked out: "Who is talking nonsense? You knelt in front of Yuan Hao's house that day crying and wiping away tears. I really saw it. Really, just now you came to ask Sister Yuanqiu when she will come back, what exactly do you want to do?"
Yuan Hao also added fuel to the fire: "Brother Liu, I beg you, my sister is already pitiful enough, and you are also engaged to sister Jiang, please stop pestering my sister, my sister said , she never wants to see you again in this life, and hopes that you will stop coming to see my sister for the sake of everyone."
Liu Wenxuan finally understood that these two brats clearly wanted to ruin his affairs and deliberately spread rumors so that he could not hold his head high in the village and create a rift in the marriage between him and the Jiang family. This move was not unreasonable. poison.
He was so angry that he stretched out his hand to slap Yuan Hao in the face.
Yuan Hao had already seen Uncle Zhang coming in a hurry, so he didn't hide away. He just shrank back with a frightened look.
Liu Wenxuan's raised hand never fell down. Uncle Zhang was a strong man doing small jobs, so how could a weak scholar like Liu Wenxuan be his opponent.
