Xia Yao was a full head shorter than Lu Jing. When he held Lu Jing's arm, he deliberately leaned against Lu Jing's chest, and his shiny black hair rubbed against Lu Jing's chest.
But the two of them looked like this. Ignoring Xia Yao's face, they did match each other very well in terms of body shape.
One person has a charming smile, the other person is handsome and cold, no matter how you look at them, they are very loving.
When Tian Dashan's words came to his lips, he was blocked by Xia Yao's words.
His face turned red and he stared at Xia Yao. What was on his mind was to deny the relationship between Lu Jing and Xia Yao, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't explain why.
At this time, Xia Yao spoke quickly like a machine gun.
"You people from the Tian family are too vicious!" Xia Yao covered his mouth and said in a very exaggerated tone with a startled tone, "Those who know think you are selfless, and those who don't know think you are avenging private revenge!"
"Besides, does the village even have to control couples dating? People in the village are busy with other things, do they really have so much time?"
Xia Yao didn't say anything, but he accused Tian Dashan and Mrs. Tian of deliberately targeting Lu Jing. Everyone in the village knew about the relationship between the Tian family and the Lu family. The Tian family has always targeted the Lu family. This is nothing new. , their eyes suddenly became suspicious.
Tian Dashan didn't expect that his good plan would be ruined by a fool. He stared at Xia Yao fiercely, and Xia Yao blinked, looking innocent.
"Am I right? Your Tian family is a habitual liar, trying to trick everyone into coming to the back mountain. Isn't this delaying everyone's work?"
"At the very least, you are wasting everyone's time; at the most serious level, you are embezzling shared assets! This field belongs to all of us!"
Xia Yao put hats on Tian Dashan's body one by one. Tian Dashan's face immediately drooped, but his palace was much deeper than Cheng Dahua's, and he became kind again after a moment.
"It's my fault!" Tian Dashan slapped his head, "My mother is old, maybe she was blinded and wasted everyone's time!"
As he spoke, he cupped his fists and apologized to Captain Zhou and his group: "Captain Zhou, I'm sorry. I also care about the public property of our brigade."
"But..." He changed the subject and stared at Lu Jing before talking again, "Bad elements like Lu Jing should not go up the mountain in the future. What if people with such rotten roots from their ancestors are poached? Let's do the same. It’s impossible to send someone to keep an eye on him every day.”
Tian Dashan is determined to slander Lu Jing in front of everyone.
Lu Jing lowered his eyes and did not refute, as if he was used to such words.
But Xia Yao held his hand at this moment and raised his feet to block in front of him. His body was obviously thin, but it became taller in this moment.
"What do you mean by a bad element?" Xia Yao frowned, "Has anyone in the county judged this matter? I have heard that Mr. Lu is a patriotic businessman! He donated all his wealth to the country during the Anti-Japanese War. How can such a family be so rotten?"
Tian Dashan was contradicted again and again by Xia Yao, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he smiled coldly: "If you are not a bad element, the county will send people to search their Lu family? Will they take back all their houses?"
"Do you have evidence?" Xia Yao raised his head and looked directly at Tian Dashan with cold eyes, "There have been many false and unjust cases over the years. Besides! Even if the Lu family is really bad elements, they have also received the punishment they deserve. The county has not restricted his personal freedom, so why should you restrict it? Are you bigger than the county?"
Xia Yao's mouth opened and closed, making Tian Dashan unable to refute.
Captain Zhou looked at Tian Dashan with cold eyes and saw the blue veins on Tian Dashan's forehead, and then he took Zhou Haiyang and strode forward.
"Okay." Captain Zhou waved his hand impatiently, "Lu Jing has worked hard in the past few years and has never been lazy. Even if he really made a mistake, he has changed his mind now. Everyone in our team sees it. In the eyes.”
"As for you." Captain Zhou looked at the mean-looking Tian Dashan and the old lady Tian, and frowned in disgust: "Tian Dashan, because your nonsense has delayed the work of so many people in the brigade, I will deduct ten points from you. For a work point, and Mrs. Tian, you can clean the pig pen with Cheng Dahua."
When Mrs. Tian heard this, she opened her mouth to yell, but Tian Dashan stopped her.
Lu Jing never said a word, but when he passed by Tian Dashan, the dark look in his eyes became darker.
Xia Yao held Lu Jing's hand. Since they were pretending to be a loving couple, they must pretend to the end.
Lu Jing felt uncomfortable all over, but every time he wanted to take away Xia Yao's hand, he always thought of Xia Yao's back when he stepped forward just now.
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Jing could only let Xia Yao go.
Tian Dashan's eyes were like a poisonous snake, staring at the retreating figures of the two men.
"Mom, are you sure Lu Jing went to the mountains?" Tian Dashan asked gloomily.
"My eyes are famous for their sharp eyes! Could I have seen it wrong?" Mrs. Tian was so angry that she slapped her thigh, "It's Xia Yao's pockmarked face that ruined my good deeds!"
Mrs. Tian now came back to her senses and finally figured out what the sound she heard before was.
She was so angry that she kept patting her chest: "If Xia Yao hadn't ruined my good deeds, I would have definitely found the treasure hidden by Lu Jing!"
No matter what happens, it’s a good idea to bring some game back to eat!
Mrs. Tian became more and more angry the more she thought about it, while Tian Dashan's eyes were heavy, as if he was thinking about something.
On the way home, Xia Yao kept holding Lu Jing's arm. No matter who looked over, she greeted him with a smile.
Lu Jing's pace became faster. When he returned home, two little carrots, Lu Tiantian and Lu Changbai, were sitting on chairs and eating steamed buns obediently.
Lu Changbai opened his mouth in surprise when he saw the two of them coming together, and the buns fell on the table.
"Second...Second uncle." When Lu Changbai spoke, his eyes always fell on the hands of the two of them.
Lu Jinggao caught his sight and immediately broke away from Xia Yao's hand: "Come in, I have something to tell you."
Xia Yao's beautiful eyes moved and she walked briskly into the room.
Who knew that at this moment, Lu Jing grabbed her hand and forced her into the corner.
"What exactly do you want?" There was a vague hint of danger in Lu Jing's narrow phoenix eyes.
Xia Yao tried to take out his hand - couldn't.
"I helped you out just now!" Xia Yao opened his eyes wide, "You will repay your kindness with your revenge!"
"You were the one who followed me first." Lu Jing's voice was low and hoarse.
Xia Yao immediately replied: "I'm worried about you!"
When she said this, Lu Jing was stunned.
Seizing this opportunity, Xia Yao spoke quickly: "Don't you know that villains are difficult to deal with? The Tian family has been staring at you! Just waiting to find your fault!"
"Every move you make in the village is seen by them. If you do those things again, sooner or later they will find evidence and report you."
"It doesn't matter if you are alone, but don't forget that you are the only support for Dabao and Xiaobao. If something happens to you, what will they do?"
Lu Jing pursed his thin lips tightly and did not speak.
Of course he knew the risks of speculation, but his family was very poor, and the situation of his brother and sister-in-law on the farm was getting worse and worse. No matter what he did, he needed money.
And the reading he was good at was of no use at all. He could only find ways to go to the back mountains to find some game, and then go to the next county to sell it.
Xia Yao had been observing Lu Jing, and when he saw that the coldness in his eyes had dissipated a little, he struck a chord while the iron was hot: "Let's cooperate! They are all staring at you, and they will definitely ignore my existence!"
"I'll help you make money, as long as you keep me here."
Xia Yao's words brought Lu Jing back to his senses.
Lu Jing's eyes became dark: "You want to stay here?"
His thin lips were slightly raised, revealing a sarcastic smile: "Xia Yao, you are still evil."
Until now, Lu Jing still thinks that Xia Yao is here for the legendary gold and silver treasures hidden by the Lu family.
Xia Yao was so angry that he itched his teeth: "How many times do I have to say it before you believe it? I just want to stay here!"
The way she looked at Lu Jing, it was obvious that she still didn't believe her.
After thinking about it, Xia Yao simply opened the skylight and spoke frankly.
She grabbed Lu Jing's hand and touched her face: "Do you know why they can make my face look like this even though they are far away in the provincial capital of Southern Province?"
Before Lu Jing could speak, Xia Yao had already opened the quilt for Lu Jing and the others, and the catkins inside floated out. After a while, Xia Yao's face became visibly swollen.
"The main culprit that made me look like this is these quilts!" Xia Yao sneered a few times, "It's the quilts that my parents sent me all the way!"
"It's almost summer, but they still haven't forgotten to send me a quilt! Why do you think this is?"
Lu Jing frowned, catkins were fluttering in the dim room, and Xia Yao's breathing became increasingly difficult.
Without any hesitation, Lu Jing picked up Xia Yao and strode out of the room.
"Is this why your temperament changed drastically?"
Xia Yao had just recovered a little when he suddenly heard Lu Jing's words.
"Yes." Xia Yao smiled sarcastically, "I thought they sent me so many things because they cared about me and loved me, but I didn't expect... they wanted my life!"
"It's impossible for me to go back." Xia Yao's voice was cold, "I am not their biological daughter. They will only harm me for their biological daughter. Now I must find a safe place."
"And now it seems... Qingshui Brigade is the safest place!" Xia Yao looked at Lu Jing, "Wouldn't it be good for us to cooperate and each get what we get?"
"I can find a way to help you sell the things. Just three to seven for you, three for you, seven for me. My additional requirement is to stay in the Lu family."
Lu Jing did not answer her directly, but turned and walked into the room.
Xia Yao's delicate eyebrows drooped, but then she thought about it, she and Lu Jing are now husband and wife, and she doesn't need to worry about leaving in a short time! As long as she has enough patience, she can definitely convince Lu Jing! In any case, she is determined to be a member of the Lu family!
At this moment, Lu Tiantian ran up to her and hugged her legs.
"Aunt, are you okay?"
