Lin Jianfeng didn't know that he had been talked about by everyone. He took Xia Qiu to the hillside behind the school and sat down.
"Brother Jianfeng, I brought you the mung bean soup to relieve the heat. Drink some quickly." Xia Qiu opened the lid.
"It's so troublesome for you, Xiaoqiu." Lin Jianfeng looked touched.
"It's no trouble. Brother Jianfeng, I'm willing to do everything for you." Xia Qiu smiled shyly.
Lin Jianfeng's eyes flashed as he looked at the soft mung beans cooked in the porcelain bowl. They were just some mung beans, so he thought they were something good. This Xia Qiu was really not as good as Su Qingyun.
Thinking of Su Qingyun, Lin Jianfeng felt a little regretful. If her family hadn't been so difficult to deal with, and the old woman was notoriously difficult and unreasonable in the village, he wouldn't have given up.
"Brother Jianfeng, Brother Jianfeng?"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Lin Jianfeng came to his senses.
Xia Qiu pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Are you listening to me?"
"Sorry, Xiaoqiu, I was just thinking about work. What's wrong?" Lin Jianfeng smiled apologetically.
"I mean, brother Jianfeng, have you seen Su Qingyun recently?" Xia Qiu wanted to know if he knew that Su Qingyun jumped into the river for him.
"Of course not." Lin Jianfeng didn't think much about it, thinking that she was just a jealous test among the little girls. "Didn't I say it before? I just regarded her as a younger sister at the beginning. I didn't expect that she would have those thoughts. Naturally, I wanted to Keep your distance from her."
The jealousy between the two girls made Lin Jianfeng very happy, and the man's vanity and sense of accomplishment were overwhelming.
"What about me?" Xia Qiu quickly asked, "Why doesn't Brother Jianfeng keep his distance from me?"
Lin Jianfeng looked at her steadily, as if there were thousands of affections in his eyes, until she blushed and turned her head away.
His tone was so soft that it dripped water, "Xiaoqiu, I thought you understood my feelings for you, do you still want to ask me such a question?"
The seemingly sincere answer was actually ambiguous. He had feelings for her, but he didn't say what they were.
Xia Qiu only thought that she had received a true confession from the person she liked. After all, she was a teenage girl. No matter how bold she heard such frank words, she was so embarrassed that she felt at a loss. Looking at his injured eyes, she hurriedly said: "I understand." , I understand everything, Brother Jianfeng."
She was so caught up in the sweetness that she didn't notice the flash of ridicule in Lin Jianfeng's eyes.
The two of them were bored for a while before Lin Jianfeng returned to school.
He was about to continue working when he suddenly noticed that everyone looked at him strangely and whispered to each other from time to time. Lin Jianfeng frowned, what's wrong?
He looked at the fellow countryman who was familiar with him and asked, "Jia Cheng, what just happened?" He had an inexplicable premonition in his heart.
Xu Jiacheng had a strange look on his face, looked around, then leaned close to him and whispered, "Did you know that girl from the Su family jumped into the river a few days ago?"
What? Lin Jianfeng was shocked. Did Su Qingyun jump into the river? How can it be? It won't be because...
"Then she..." he said tremblingly.
"She's fine." Xu Jiacheng hesitated, "But... everyone is talking about her jumping into the river and you have nothing to do with it."
"What do you mean you can't get away from me?" Lin Jianfeng's expression changed, and the guilt that just appeared in his heart disappeared in an instant, "That's nonsense! Who is spreading rumors? I'm not done with him!"
"Zhang Qi just heard about it when he went to Aunt Wang's house to get food. Everyone knows about it."
Many of their educated young people were completely ignorant before they came here to go to the countryside. They didn't know anything about making fires or cooking. Many of them could only take their meal tickets and some money to find someone to share a meal with in the village. The people in the village also Enjoy extra income and get the best of both worlds.
Aunt Wang, who Zhang Qi was dating, was a famous gossip in Luoshui Village. She always liked to talk about the shortcomings of the host family, the Li family. Whatever she said was white, she could turn it into black, let alone this matter. Erlin Jianfeng was not innocent to begin with.
Lin Jianfeng's face turned blue and white, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He was also restless while working later.
The story of the little girl from the Su family jumping into the river for the sake of an educated young man quickly spread throughout Luoshui Village like it had wings.
When they came back from work in the evening, everyone in the Su family looked unhappy.
Wu Guixiang put the rice on the table and asked strangely: "What's wrong? Everyone has this look on their faces?"
Su Aiguo, who had always been steady, looked extremely ugly, "Mom, everyone in the village is talking about Yun Yun and that Lin Jianfeng, saying that Yu Yun can't think about a man at such a young age, and doesn't know... no shame." He said the last sentence. Unable to speak.
Su Aiguo's daughter-in-law Li Xiulian frowned, "How can you say such ugly words?"
"What did you say?" Wu Guixiang's face darkened, "Didn't I say that? No one is allowed to mention such things like falling into the water outside. Who said that?"
After Su Qingyun was rescued, Wu Guixiang repeatedly asked her family not to reveal the information for the sake of her reputation.
Zhang Xinlan: "Who else is there to say this? Someone saw Yunyun when she was rescued. It was passed around, and somehow it reached Wang Dahong's ears. By the time she got there, wouldn't the whole village know about it?"
Today when Aunt Li next door asked her, she felt so embarrassed.
Su Aimin and Qin Ying were furious.
Su Aimin's face was as dark as water, and he cursed loudly, "Our family's affairs are none of their business. They are such gossips and they have nothing else to do except chew their tongues all day long, right?"
Qin Ying was also shaking with anger. She was too well-bred to say bad words, but she wanted to seal those people's mouths with tape. In the countryside, if a girl who has not left the government loses her reputation, her life will be almost over.
Wu Guixiang glanced at the couple and asked, "Where is Yunyun?"
"Yunyun said she can't eat and is in the room."
The person involved, Su Qingyun, was looking through textbooks from this era in the room, completely unaware of the changes outside.
"No, we can't endure this matter like this, otherwise others will really think that Yunyun has anything to do with that pretty boy. How will the people in the village look at her and our house in the future?" The more Su Aimin thought about it, the more he couldn't sit still. He stood up and wanted to go out. Walk.
"Stop! Come back and sit down!" Wu Guixiang put down her chopsticks, stood up, and said through gritted teeth: "I'll go, you all wait at home for me to see if I don't tear up that old lady Wang's mouth!"
She walked out the door so aggressively that no one had time to react.
"Dad?" Su Aimin looked at his father.
Su Dalin took a puff of dry cigarette and said, "Let your mother go, it's not convenient for you to come forward."
Su Aimin and Qin Ying were such parents. If they really made a big fuss, outsiders would only think that they were guilty, which would confirm the matter, so they could only let Wu Guixiang go. Anyway, she Even though he has a bad reputation, he is not afraid of people in the village telling him.
