The original owner of the body didn't usually farm. When Chu Xiang came out, many people in the field looked at her as if she was new. Basically, they didn't think that she could do anything. That girl and Yao Xue were waiting to see her make a fool of herself. After all, she was still loved by her family in this era.
Chu Xiang didn't think it was dirty at all. She wasn't afraid of insects and the like. She didn't even frown. She happily followed Chu Dongsheng to pick weeds and catch insects, listening to what Chu Dongsheng told her to pay attention to. When there was a place that needed to be hoed, Chu Dongsheng would hoe it. Chu Xiang was strong enough to hoe three or four times, and her palms were red.
However, others didn't think that she was working hard at all. Instead, they felt that she was working very seriously. It was mainly because she was neither arrogant nor impatient. She always had a faint smile on her face, giving people a very peaceful feeling. They even felt a little embarrassed to gossip about her. They didn't know the term "gentle and quiet", but they felt that Chu Xiang was very comfortable to look at. No wonder Liu Fang and Chu Dongsheng doted on her so much.
After a while, Chu Xiang saw that Liu Fang was sweating profusely. She took out a clean handkerchief and wiped the sweat for her. Then, she took off the water bottle on her back and gave it to her to drink. Liu Fang was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.
People with eyes could see that Chu Xiang was very tired, but when she got up, her back was still straight. She didn't complain at all and still looked happy.
Some people even praised her to Liu Fang. "Sister Liu, your daughter is really good. She looks fair and tender, but she doesn't care about heavy things at all. She even knows how to care about you. She's so considerate."
Liu Fang smiled. "Of course. Otherwise, why would I care about my daughter so much? Daughters are the most considerate cotton-padded jackets of mothers. That's it. There's nothing more considerate than a daughter. "
"Yes, yes. Mine is the same. She knows that I'm tired, so she prepared breakfast early in the morning and waited for me to eat."
"Mine is the same. Last night, she helped me to make up clothes until midnight."
Taking advantage of the break, Liu Fang was surrounded by several people. They all began to brag about how good their daughters were. No one was willing to lose to others. After all, their own daughters were the best. However, only they knew what they were thinking in their hearts. Their daughters were either working hard or fussing and fussing. How could they be as considerate as Chu Xiang to Liu Fang?
As the women chatted, they began to talk about marriage. Chu Xiang was eighteen years old. In their eyes, it was the right time for them to look at each other. In the past, he felt that Chu Xiang did not work much and had studied for so many years. She definitely had high standards and was not easy to get along with. He felt that it was not suitable to marry her.
Now that they saw that Chu Xiang not only had a good temperament, but she also worked well, naturally, some people were tempted. Although most of the people in their village had the surname Chu, it was passed down from hundreds to thousands of years ago. They were not one family, and they were married to each other. Even if they had to arrange a marriage, they were willing to help their relatives and friends ask a few questions.
Good girls were sought after by hundreds of families. The more people asked about them, the happier Liu Fang was. She worked harder than usual and asked about the situation of several families.
Not far from them were the educated youths who came to the village to help. In fact, there were twelve educated youths in total. However, the other four were married to the villagers and did not live with the educated youths.
These educated youths were also talking about Chu Xiang.
"I heard that Chu Xiang's mother dotes on Mother Rao the most in the countryside. Chu Xiang is really lucky."
"It seems that her studies are good. She is the first in school."
"What is the first in school? It's useless to be the first in school. Now it's not allowed to go to college. After she finishes high school, she still has to come back to farm. "
After that, the three female educated youths lowered their heads to farm. It could be seen that they were not in a good mood. They were all girls. They were originally from the city and their studies were good. Now they could only farm in the remote countryside. However, Chu Xiang was born in the remote countryside, but she was raised to be fair and tender and was doted on by her family.
They did not say anything unpleasant, but they still felt uncomfortable. The atmosphere of work was also a little dull.
A male educated youth looked at them and winked at other male educated youths. Then he said very loudly, "This Chu Xiang has never shown her face before. It turns out that she is the prettiest in the team. She is even prettier than Yao Xue."
An older male educated youth frowned. "Li Hongjun, don't be blind. What if someone heard you? Hurry up and work. "
Li Hongjun did not shut up. He glanced at Chu Xiang and said, "Those aunties over there seem to be looking for a match for Chu Xiang. Brother Liu, what do you think of me? "
Brother Liu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously looked at Chu Xiang. He thought for a while and said, "That's tough. Looking at her mother and brother's attitude, they'll definitely find her a job that can support her. You only earn eight work points, and it's already hard for you to support yourself. You don't have any siblings or parents to help you, so they'll definitely be unhappy. I think they should look for a family with a reputation in the brigade. "
Li Hongjun curled his lips. "That's hard to say. There are many people in the brigade who like me."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Brother Liu quickly looked around. When he saw that no one was looking at them, he was relieved and glared at Li Hongjun.
Li Hongjun was rebuffed. He looked at Huo Wenkai, who had been working silently. He sneered. "Better than the landlord's son of a bitch."
Huo Wenkai stood up and grabbed Li Hongjun's collar. He lifted him up and put him to the side.
Li Hongjun was shocked and said angrily, "Huo Wenkai! What are you doing?! "
Huo Wenkai continued to work and said in a deep voice, "You are blocking me."
A lot of people heard the noise and looked over. Li Hongjun felt embarrassed. He wanted to say something, but Brother Liu pulled him away. Brother Liu said, "You still want to provoke him? Did you forget the beating when you first came? "
Li Hongjun shrank his neck and said angrily, "His background is so bad, but he still dares to be unreasonable. No wonder he is the descendant of a landlord."
Brother Liu shook his head and sighed. Huo Wenkai's background was bad, but the Huo family was also punished. Huo Wenkai's fists were as hard as rock. Provoking him was asking for a beating. But Huo Wenkai was smart. Last time when he sleepwalked, he beat Li Hongjun up. No one could find anything wrong with that. Even if everyone suspected that he was faking it, could they find any evidence?
After all, everyone was working in the field. Who would look down on who?
Brother Liu did not want to have more contact with Huo Wenkai. He also did not want to be too close to Li Hongjun. He found an excuse and went to work on the other side of the field. The other educated youths also followed him and dispersed.
Huo Wenkai was still working nimbly. After finishing the work in the field, he wiped his sweat and strode away.
When Chu Xiang looked up, she happened to see that man. He was so good-looking! Those arms, those legs, it was obvious that they were strong!
Chu Xiang pulled Chu Dongsheng's sleeve and asked, "Brother, who is that? Why did he leave? "
Chu Dongsheng glanced at him and said, "Him? He is an educated youth. His name is Huo Wenkai. Heh, this guy might be able to endure. He's much stronger than those weak and gentle ones. He was going to the cowshed. He worked fast and well. He applied to the brigade leader that every time he finished his work in the fields, he could go to the cowshed. He could do two jobs, and he was guaranteed to do more than the others. He can earn 18 work points. I can only earn 12 work points if I work hard. "
Chu Xiang could see that he really admired Huo Wenkai. She could not help but laugh and said, "Brother, if you want to do two jobs, I don't believe you can do worse than him. You are obviously slacking off."
Chu Dongsheng touched the back of his head and laughed, "It's enough that you know. Why did you come out? Other strong men can only earn 12 work points. When we rest at noon, I will take you to see the cows. Huo Wenkai did a good job, and the cows were clean. But don't talk too much with him. He is not good. He used to be a landlord's young master. People saw him and gossiped. It's not nice. "
Chu Xiang nodded. She did not care much about this "not good". If he did not steal or rob, and his family had land, wasn't it normal to be a landlord and enjoy life? When she was a Devil Cultivator, many people would gossip about her whenever they mentioned her. It was as if she was some kind of homicidal maniac. There was something wrong with her. She always looked down on this kind of person.
Nobody else could hear the brother and sister talking, they only saw them laughing and laughing. It was obvious that the brother and sister's relationship was very good.
Next to Yao Xue was Wang Fen, who was on good terms with her. Wang Fen touched her arm and leaned in. "Your man dotes on your sister-in-law too much. Did she make you feel bad? I heard that she fell into the river because you asked her to wash clothes? "
Yao Xue lowered her head and squatted on the ground to pull the weeds. "It was an accident."
She did not say anything else, but it made people feel that she was wronged. Wang Fen said, "You are the flower of your brigade. Your betrothal gifts are better than others. Many people want you to marry into a good family. I think you will have a hard time in the future. Your mother-in-law and sister-in-law have always been the most difficult to deal with. Chu Dongsheng is so close to his mother and sister. It will not be easy for you to control him. "
Yao Xue was impatient to listen to her nonsense. She turned around and said, "My man is very good to me. He is a good person."
Wang Fen curiously moved closer to her. "Really? How is it good? Why don't you be with me? Is it better to be married than to stay at home? "
This time, Yao Xue wanted to show off, so she followed her. Anyway, Chu Dongsheng was very good to her. In the future, this would be considered as a public display of affection. At this moment … Wang Fen's ears turned red. She even jokingly pushed her and laughed with her.
After a while, Wang Fen was a little puzzled. "He is so good to you. Why didn't he come over and ask you? Look at you. You are sweating. He only cares about your sister-in-law. "
Yao Xue smiled faintly. "It's rare for my sister-in-law to come out. Of course, I have to take care of her. Brother Dongsheng is usually with me, right?"
Wang Fen thought about it and agreed. She then muttered about how Chu Xiang did not know how to work. She had to learn how to work in the field at her age. She studied for so many years, but she could not get into university. All the money she spent was wasted.
Wang Fen's words were full of sarcasm towards Chu Xiang. Yao Xue was usually very happy to hear it, but today, she was not happy. When she came just now, she wanted to see Chu Xiang make a fool of herself. In the end, she did not get to see Chu Xiang make a fool of herself. She almost made a fool of herself.
Chu Dongsheng was such an insensitive man. He gave all his love and care to his sister. Looking at how precious Chu Xiang was, what right did she have? Didn't she know how to say nice things? Sooner or later, she would pull Chu Dongsheng over and chase away that annoying mother-in-law and sister-in-law!
