Chapter 140: High-ranking educated youth and the poor crying baby (4)
After a day's work, Ruan Guannan was so tired that she ate several bites less of dinner, and she choked halfway through eating a piece of hard steamed bread. She instantly lost the desire to eat.
After giving his share to Liu Xiaoya, Ruan Guannan dragged his tired body and prepared to boil some water to wash himself.
As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw a tall figure sitting on a bench boiling water.
The man had a handsome appearance with a hint of masculinity, deep and three-dimensional facial features, an imposing air, and a sharp and smooth jaw angle.
Those extremely dark eyes seemed to be able to see deep into a person's heart, making people unable to help but fall into them willingly.
He was tall and straight, and even from the little bit of his body that occasionally showed while he was working, you could tell he had a great figure.
The summer vest stuck to his body, outlining his firm and smooth muscles. His wheat-colored skin seemed to emit an alluring luster under the flickering firelight.
Ruan Guannan came to his senses after a moment of daze and suddenly met those deep eyes.
She coughed awkwardly, pursed her lips and said:
"Well, please hurry up, I need to boil some water too."
Zhou Yan retracted his gaze and said calmly:
"Your hand is injured, it's best not to get it wet."
Ruan Guannan subconsciously raised his palm and took a look. His delicate palm had been rubbed red from a day's labor, and there were a few blood blisters on it that were about to burst.
She looked at him strangely, without thinking too much, and said:
"I can't sleep without washing."
After that, the kitchen fell into an eerie silence.
Ruan Guannan thought about it, turned around and prepared his clothes.
When she came out again, the hot water had been brought to the door of the shed.
Ruan Guannan leaned over to take a look and found that the female educated youth was still eating. She was the only one taking a shower. So... it was for her?
Suppressing the unclear thoughts in his heart, Ruan Guannan endured the pain in his palms and quickly washed his body. Finally, he was no longer sticky.
She walked out with the used water with great effort and saw Zhou Yan standing not far away.
Seeing her come out, Zhou Yan walked over and prepared to pour out the water.
Ruan Guannan dodged his hand and said tactfully:
"Thank you, I'll do it myself. Thank you for the water, I'll boil it for you next time."
Zhou Yan withdrew his hand stiffly, turned naturally, and pulled his hair.
Without saying anything, he turned around and left quickly.
At night, Ruan Guannan looked at Liu Xiaoya pitifully and said expectantly:
"Liu Zhiqing, can you help me pick the blisters? I can't do it myself..."
Liu Xiaoya felt uncomfortable with her expectant eyes and could not refuse her request at all. She mumbled:
"Good, good."
She walked to the light and carefully held the little white, glowing hand. Her hand holding the needle was trembling slightly.
Ruan Guannan kept breathing in pain, and his tears fell like pearls, in large drops, as if a broken string had been cut.
999 couldn't bear it any longer and said speechlessly:
[Host, you are too fake...]
Ruan Guannan paused in crying and said angrily:
【Leave me alone! 】
999 shrank back obediently, not daring to disturb her anymore.
Seeing her crying so miserably, Liu Xiaoya couldn't help but comfort her:
"It's okay, you'll be fine soon."
Liu Xiaoya spoke even more carefully to such a beautiful girl who was full of fairy spirit, for fear of accidentally hurting her.
Liu Meng'er next to him rolled her eyes secretly and joked:
"Ruan Zhiqing, we are all here to support rural construction. You can't be so squeamish."
Ruan Guannan ignored her and simply ignored her sarcasm.
Seeing that she ignored her like this, Liu Meng'er was secretly angry and shrilly said:
"Everyone is equal nowadays. Ruan Zhiqing ordered others to boil water for you. Isn't this acting like a lady?"
Ruan Guannan stood up quickly. Liu Xiaoya, who was bandaging her, was so frightened that she held her hand tightly, afraid of tearing the wound further.
Ruan Guannan strode up to Liu Meng'er, his eyes full of anger, and said sternly:
"Are your eyes just for show? Where did you see me directing others to boil water? If you are envious, just say so. Stop being sarcastic."
Liu Meng'er is the typical person who bullies the weak and fears the strong. Seeing Ruan Guannan, who seemed so weak, suddenly change his expression, she dared not to continue to challenge him.
Ruan Guannan rolled his eyes at her, looking down on her expression.
After finally bandaging the wound, Liu Xiaoya was sweating all over.
Ruan Guannan was filled with gratitude and took out a pack of biscuits from the cupboard and forcefully stuffed them into her mouth.
"Thank you, Liu Zhiqing."
Liu Xiaoya didn't expect that she would get a big bag of biscuits for such a simple job. She felt even more favorable towards Ruan Guannan.
Just a few days passed like this, and except for Zhao Mingze coming to her from time to time to make his presence felt, everything else was back on track.
That day, she was assigned to a new place to continue weeding.
The first thing Ruan Guannan did was to sign in. There was nothing good there anyway, so she no longer had any expectations.
As soon as he signed in, Ruan Guannan suddenly felt that there was something extra under his command, and it was jumping up and down.
She was so frightened that her hands exerted force, and the pheasant's neck suddenly twisted, and it died in the blink of an eye!
Ruan Guannan's face suddenly changed and he glanced around carefully.
Seeing that no one saw it, she quickly straightened the chicken's head and whispered:
"I didn't use much effort, stop pretending to be dead!"
999's small eyes are simply unbearable to look at. With the host's subconscious hand strength, it's no big deal to crush a chicken to death, right?
It would be better if he was already dead. If he wasn't dead, he would have been pissed off to death by the host's words.
Seeing that it was beyond saving, Ruan Guannan felt very sorry and could only offer it to her stomach...
Before she could feel secretly delighted, there was a sudden loud "bang", as if something heavy had fallen into the water.
Then a large group of people rushed over there.
Ruan Guannan stood up subconsciously and followed the crowd to see what was happening.
Then we saw Zhao Mingze bravely jump into the water and pull a woman out of the water.
The aunts around were talking about it, "Oh, why did Wang Jianguo's daughter jump into the river?"
Another aunt also said with regret:
"Hey, a pretty girl who should be getting married is still being forced to work by her parents. I guess they can't let it go."
An auntie next to him looked mean and said:
"It's really shameful to see them hugging each other in broad daylight."
After listening for a long time, Ruan Guannan finally understood that this should be the heroine Wang Zijun.
No wonder she fell in love with Zhao Mingze later. The plot of a hero saving a beauty and falling in love with a hero is an eternal one.
It’s a pity that this hero is Zhao Shimei.
I guess when she wakes up again, it will be the reborn Wang Zijun in her body.
Ruan Guannan was so absorbed in thought that he didn't notice that there was someone standing next to him.
When Ruan Guannan came to her senses, she saw Zhou Yan looking at her thoughtfully, then at the chicken in her hand that had obviously died in an undignified manner, and a hint of mockery flashed across his eyes.
Ruan Guannan's body stiffened, he smiled awkwardly, and whispered:
"I found it on the roadside. Isn't that a coincidence?"
A hint of a smile flashed across Zhou Yan's eyes, but before he could speak, the mean aunt next to him spoke first.
"Picked it up? I just put it there, give it back to me."
No, what's your business?
Before Ruan Guannan could get mad, Zhou Yan's face darkened, as if the smile just now was just an illusion, and he said coldly:
"Auntie, the river was too noisy just now, I couldn't hear you clearly, what did you say?"
When the aunt saw Zhou Yan, a tall and strong man, her face became frighteningly cold. She dared not say a word and ran out of the crowd and disappeared.
Zhou Yan's gaze returned to the chicken.
Ruan Guannan subconsciously hid it behind her, thinking that this would make her seem too stingy, so she took it out reluctantly and said:
"It's no use looking at it. I don't know how to do it."
Zhou Yan quickly turned his head to calm down the corners of his lips, then turned back and whispered:
"I come."
In a sheltered place, the pheasant, which originally had shiny black hair, suddenly became bald. A branch pierced it from the neck to the feet and it was placed on the fire, sizzling with oil.
Ruan Guannan swallowed his saliva several times in a short while. He squatted beside the fire and watched Zhou Yan's actions eagerly.
Zhou Yan felt very uncomfortable being stared at by him, and he almost dropped the chicken into the fire without paying attention.
"Hey, hey, hey? Be careful, how about I do it?"
Ruan Guannan saw his hands shaking several times and was afraid that he would ruin his delicious food.
Zhou Yan calmed himself down, lowered his eyebrows, and said in a rough voice:
"Just wait a little longer, it will be done soon."
When he finally got to eat it, Ruan Guannan squinted his eyes happily.
After eating sweet potato rice for several days, I finally get to eat meat!
The two of them shared the whole chicken.
After eating, Ruan Guannan felt very at ease and directed him to finish the rest of his work.
There's nothing he can do about it. Who made him feel guilty about eating the food that he ate?
