When they opened their lunch boxes, everyone couldn't help but feel a little envious. All they got were steamed buns or flatbreads, or steamed buns.
Basically, even if it is a steamed bun, it cannot be made with thin noodles. It is all steamed buns with two-joint noodles or three-joint noodles.
Zhang Xiuying’s lunch box was actually a vegetable box.
In fact, these are the leeks left over from yesterday. Anyway, there are leftovers, so I made a leek box.
A lunch box full of chive boxes, with both noodles and vegetables, it’s complete.
Everyone is envious, but the good thing about the villagers is that everyone knows what is good and what is wrong, and they will never take advantage of others just because of envy.
After one glance, they turned their heads away and each nibbled on the dry food in their hands.
Zhang Xiuying was about to say what the result was, but she didn't expect that someone suddenly appeared in front of her, and a shadow enveloped her.
When Zhang Xiuying raised her head, she saw Gu Xiyue standing in front of her. Gu Xiyue stared at Zhang Xiuying with a sad expression. In fact, it should be said that she was staring at the lunch box in Zhang Xiuying's hand.
Without saying a word, she just stood in front of Zhang Xiuying, standing there like a pillar.
Gu Xiyue wanted to show her face in front of everyone, so she was too embarrassed to say anything.
She felt that Zhang Xiuying felt embarrassed when she saw her standing here, eating alone.
An elder should at least give in.
Since she was willing to give them steamed buns yesterday, it proved that Zhang Xiuying was soft-hearted. Maybe she would be willing to give her something else today.
Gu Xiyue actually felt like Ming Jing'er in her heart, and knew that what she did back then was unreasonable.
So I relied on my status as a junior to stand here and stand in front of Zhang Xiuying. To put it bluntly, it hurt my heart.
Zhang Xiuying watched the girl standing here without saying a word, staring at the lunch box in her hand.
The aunts next to them were a little dissatisfied when they saw Gu Xiyue's approach.
They are all people who have been here before. It doesn't matter whether they are educated or not. Everyone knows the basic etiquette.
Even the most inconspicuous people in the village know not to go to other people's houses to talk about things while eating, because that would be tantamount to cheating on them in disguise, unless they are the scoundrels in the village.
These people are still from the city, and they don’t understand any rules.
"Hey, Comrade Xiao Gu, what are you doing?
Gu Zhiqing, if you don't go back to your place, what are you doing here?
Are you going to let people eat?
How can there be such a person? When you are eating, you stand here and stare at the rice in other people's hands. How many lives have you never eaten? "
"You are still a cultural person in the city. People in this city are so careless."
"It really embarrasses the people in the city."
Gu Xiyue's face suddenly lost all control over everyone's chatter, and her face turned red.
But compared to being hungry, what's this shame?
For the first time, she realized that people really have no dignity if they go hungry.
I have been really hungry these past few days. Yesterday, the buns felt like they were in my stomach. They were just filled to the bottom. They were already digested today and they had to do such heavy work again.
If she doesn't eat, she won't be able to survive this afternoon, and she doesn't know where to pick up the rations.
Gu Xiyue, who always wanted to save face, decided to become a rogue.
"Aunt Zhang, I didn't bring any food."
"Our rations haven't come yet."
The implication is that Aunt Zhang should give me food.
Zhang Xiuying was instantly surprised. She was so arrogant when she first met her. She was the eldest lady in the city!
Whether it’s what you wear or what you eat, or the tone and demeanor when you speak.
Aloof, when did it become like this?
She was just like the shameless shrew in the village who was actually ready to take advantage of others.
Before Zhang Xiuying could speak, the aunt next to her became anxious.
"What? Aunt Zhang, what kind of relatives are you?"
"Xiuying, are you two related?"
Zhang Xiuying hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands.
"We are not relatives. Her surname is Gu and my surname is Zhang. How could we be relatives? We just know each other. We met once."
Speaking of which, Gu Xiyue has nothing to do with the Shen family.
Gu Xiyue became anxious upon hearing this introduction.
"Aunt Zhang, how can you say that? It should be me and Brother Huo who get married."
This sentence made the old women next to them feel like they had heard gossip.
While his mouth opened wide, his eyes immediately fell on Gu Xiyue.
This is Camp Commander Huo's gossip. So this is the girl that Camp Commander Huo almost married?
"In the end, we couldn't get married because your Shen An'an showed up halfway. It was your Shen An'an who robbed me. Now you actually say you don't know me."
All the aunts immediately yelled.
There was something wrong with the way she looked at Zhang Xiuying immediately. After all, Zhang Xiuying's daughter had snatched someone else's fiancé. If this matter was revealed, the villagers would look down upon her.
Zhang Xiuying was instantly angered by Gu Xiyue's words. How could anyone talk like that?
This is not a proper slander of his daughter's reputation. If this spreads to the team, everyone will think that his daughter is a meddle in the process.
Zhang Xiuying was usually very talkative. For the first time, the honest man got angry. He stood up immediately and slapped Gu Xiyue on the face with lightning speed.
Gu Xiyue knew that Zhang Xiuying was a kind-hearted woman, so she dared to do this.
Gu Xiyue's original intention was to disgust Shen An'an, and at the same time, she also put herself on the moral high ground. In this way, it was reasonable for her to ask Zhang Xiuying for food, and so many people would help her.
But she misjudged what it would be like for an honest person to be provoked.
Zhang Xiuying slapped Gu Xiyue in the face.
Gu Xiyue, a young lady in the city, had never seen such a thing before. She had never even fought with others, let alone fought with others or made her face red.
"Fuck you! Gu Xiyue, I'm warning you, don't talk nonsense here.
This marriage was decided upon by the Huo family’s father and my husband when they were very young.
We are just a baby. When will you become Huo Chengan's fiancée?
If you are Huo Chengan's fiancée, then let's discuss this matter carefully today.
What the hell is going on!
I'll call Huo Chengan over, and let's figure things out.
I don’t know if my daughter has been slandered by you and has such a reputation. Why?
Huo Chengan told us personally that there was absolutely no emotional entanglement. He has never been in love, let alone a fiancée.
If you say that, it proves that there is something wrong with Huo Chengan's character.
I will not protect my son-in-law. If there is a problem with his character, I will report it to the army leaders and let them punish this duplicitous person.
My daughter received her marriage certificate in due course. Mr. Huo personally sent Huo Chengan to pick my daughter up.
Why did you end up stepping in halfway?
Let me tell you, don’t think that we are country people who can easily bully me. Zhang Xiuying will not be offended by this.
It doesn't matter how you bully me. If you dare to say something bad about my daughter, I will fight with you for my life. "
