Mi Xaing 'er heard a faint sound.
When she opened her eyes again …
The moon was like a silver hook, hanging diagonally above the branches. The moonlight shone through the gaps between the leaves and formed a net on the ground. The stars in the night sky were reflected in the water like dazzling gems.
From afar, she saw someone planting rice in the paddy field … His movements were swift, and his sleeves were rolled up high. The dim moonlight shone on his white shirt, as if it was specially made for a movie, and it reflected his handsome features very clearly.
Mi Xaing 'er pulled her sleeves, patted the dust off her butt, and walked to a conspicuous spot on the ridge. "Hey, Head Of Yun …"
Yun Jingting straightened his back. His voice was not loud, and there was no emotion in it. "You're still here? You didn't go home? "
Mi Xaing 'er nodded slightly. "Yeah!"
She wanted to ask, "Why are you here?"
But she felt that this question was too silly!
It would be too fake to say anything else!
After pondering for a while, she decided not to say anything. She rolled up her trousers, walked to the other side of the paddy field, and lowered her head to plant rice.
Yun Jingting looked at her slender and stubborn back. He did not say anything and bent down to work.
Everything was silent …
There seemed to be only the sound of the rice seedlings planting in the water, and the man's footsteps slowly retreating … They were getting closer and closer.
Mi Xaing 'er felt a warmth in her chest … In the dark night, with someone by her side, the paddy field under her feet did not seem so cold anymore.
Time flew by …
The moon quietly climbed from the branch to the top of the tree. The two of them finally finished planting the last bunch of rice seedlings.
Yun Jingting walked slowly to the shore. He rolled up his sleeves and looked back … He saw the woman standing in the field with her trousers rolled up. The moonlight shone on her porcelain-white skin, and she looked like a quiet elf.
Mi Xiang 'er tilted her head and gave him a faint smile. Only then did she step onto the embankment.
She felt a little apologetic … According to a modern person's point of view, if someone helped her, she should at least express her gratitude. "How about … I treat you to a cup of tea?"
"Huh?"
Yun Jingting was stunned. She thought for a moment before saying, "Forget it! It's too late, it's not very convenient for a girl like you to stay here alone! "
Mi Xiang 'er flipped her long braids and her eyes turned into crescent moons. "What are you thinking? I didn't say that I would invite you to my house! "
Without waiting for the other party to reply, she pointed to a thermos and enamel jar under the tree. "I have hot water and tea leaves here! If you don't mind, you can drink tea with Qingfeng and Mingyue … "
When Yun Jingting saw how eloquent she was, her heart itched and she really didn't want to leave. She didn't even hesitate and immediately agreed. "Then … let's have a cup of tea!"
Mi Xaing 'er walked to the tree and poured out all the water in her cup. She washed it inside and out, then grabbed a handful of tea leaves from a small plastic bag at the side. She brewed it with hot water and handed it to Yun Jingting. "Here!"
Yun Jingting took it … Looking at her through the mist in the jar, the woman's eyes looked even more lively and bright.
He coughed lightly, not knowing what to say. He didn't want the atmosphere to be awkward, so he could only look up at the sky. "So … the weather is good tonight?"
"Yeah! Not bad! "
"There seem to be a lot of stars too!"
"Yeah!"
"The moon is also very bright!"
Mi Xaing 'er smiled. "I think so!"
Then she softened her voice. "Head Of Yun, thank you!"
She didn't say anything else!
They were all smart people …
Thank you?
Not just for the transplanting tonight, but for everything that the man had done.
Yun Jingting didn't reply. She lowered her head and took a sip of the hot tea … She felt that the tea leaves were especially fragrant. Drinking it under the moonlight seemed to make it taste better.
Suddenly, she heard footsteps not far away.
A young man walked out from the darkness … He was wearing black trousers and a gray tunic suit. A military backpack was slung over his shoulder. He was tall and walked briskly. He looked to be about 23 or 24 years old. "Hey, is that Mi Xaing 'er?"
Mi Xaing 'er turned around … She saw that the man had delicate features and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He had a scholarly air about him. "Ah? Is that Brother Xu? "
The man was Xu Dongsheng's eldest son … Hsu Mingwei.
He was the "xiucai" of the village and was studying at the Medical University. In modern terms, he was a "top scholar". He was smart, good-looking, and his father was the village chief. Basically, he was the most attractive bachelor in the village.
Hsu Mingwei walked up to them. He quickly glanced at Yun Jingting and asked curiously, "It's so late. Head Of Yun is here too?"
Yun Jingting also knew him. She replied faintly, "Yes!"
Mi Xaing 'er took over the conversation. "Brother Xu, you …"
"Yes? Our Medical University is on holiday, so I hitched a ride … and rushed back in the middle of the night! " Hsu Mingwei smiled. His gaze behind his glasses was especially gentle. "Xiang 'er, why aren't you home yet?"
"I'm home now! I just finished transplanting the rice seedlings! "
Mi Xaing 'er also felt that he was very close to her … Although Hsu Mingwei was four or five years older than her, he had always been like an elder brother. He never complained that she was the daughter of a landlord. Every time someone bullied Mi Xaing' er, he would stand up for her. "Brother Xu, how long can you stay this time?"
"At least after transplanting the rice seedlings, right? The people of the whole country are protecting the farmers' harvest … Our Medical University's Youth League Committee can't fall behind. We're especially calling on the students from the countryside to go home and help with the spring plowing! "
"Oh!" Mi Xaing 'er looked at him. "Then the village chief will be happy! The last time you came back … "
Before she could finish speaking, Yun Jingting interrupted her from behind. "Mi Xaing 'er!"
"Ah?"
Yun Laohu tapped her foot with her chin.
Mi Xaing 'er looked down … A grass snake about half a meter long was slithering past her feet.
Although she knew that the snake wasn't poisonous, she was surprised to see this scene. The snake's body was twisting, and the snake's skin glowed bronze under the moonlight. It looked a little strange.
"Oh my god!" She immediately jumped onto a big rock by the field.
Yun Laohu grinned with two rows of white teeth. "Oh? Are you scared? "
Squinting his eyes, he quickly crouched down … Although his stature was tall, his movements were actually faster than a leopard's. He grabbed the snake's weak point and swung his arm to throw it out. With a "pa" sound, the snake's body drew a semicircle in the air and fell into the distant grass, disappearing without a trace.
Mi Xaing 'er was anxious. She jumped down from the big rock and couldn't help but hit him on the back. "Why didn't you just grab the snake and take it away? Why did you have to remind me? You gave me a fright! "
Yun Jingting was hit, but not only was he not angry, the smile on his face deepened.
Hsu Mingwei's gaze wandered between the two of them for a few seconds, and he immediately laughed. "Head Of Yun, you don't know! Mi Xaing 'er is timid to begin with! She can tremble for a long time when she sees a little field mouse! "
He simply took the initiative to suggest, "Alright! Xiang 'er, it's getting late, and we've finished planting. Shall I send you home? "
When Yun Jingting heard this, he said unhurriedly, "No need! I'll send her! "
Huh?
Hsu Mingwei pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose. "It's on the way!"
Yun Jingting didn't argue with him, and his gaze fell directly on Mi Xaing 'er. "Tell me! What should I do? "
----- Digression —
What should I do?
The tiger seems to be a little jealous?
Is Mi Xaing 'er's EQ high?
How should I deal with this situation?
