Chapter 106 Wei Jia is a jerk
Looking at the old lady standing there with a pale face and lifeless eyes, she kept muttering, "I didn't, I didn't break the law, no, no, I broke the law, I broke the law."
Bai Nuo smiled and skipped away.
"Host, why are you attacking ordinary people mentally again?" The system sighed helplessly. It couldn't stop it, it couldn't stop it at all.
"How could I!" Bai Nuo curled his lips innocently. "That's not called a mental attack, it's just the simplest psychological suggestion. It's not even basic hypnosis. It's all because that lady's mental defenses are too weak. A simple psychological suggestion succeeded. Do you blame me?"
Bai Nuo shrugged his shoulders and said proudly like a little scoundrel: "Even if you want to blame someone, you can only blame me for being too strong. There's nothing I can do, ah!"
"..."
I can’t argue with it, not at all!
Forget it, let it be. Most ordinary people in this era don’t understand psychology at all, so no one will come to catch its host for a free meal.
The system has lowered its requirements for its host to the lowest level, as long as it doesn't get caught and forced to eat unpalatable free meals.
"Little educated youth Bai, come and change your tools. Just put them here." The scorer was sitting at the door of the warehouse. Looking at the pretty little educated youth jumping over, his eyes lit up and he smiled with his big white teeth.
"Hello, Comrade Zhou. These are the tools Fang Zhiqing and I use. We've finished our work for the day, but I didn't see the team leader when I called it a day."
The scorekeeper from the Seventh Water Brigade was stunned when he heard this. He looked at the hoe and pulled the corner of his mouth slightly stiffly. "Didn't Fang Zhiqing come over? How could they let a little girl like you come all the way here? This is outrageous."
Bai Nuo looked at the young scorekeeper in confusion. "Oh, it's not far. Wouldn't it take about ten minutes to walk there? Why, is it that the brigade regulations require that tools must be returned in person?"
The scorer explained helplessly: "No, no, that's not what I meant, it's just..."
"Oh, that's okay. As for the work points, you can ask the team leader of our team seven later. I'm back." Bai Nuo nodded, put the tools aside, waved to the scorer, turned around and ran towards the educated youth compound.
"Hey, Bai..." When the weekly scorekeeper saw the young educated youth running away, he sat down on the chair in disappointment.
"Hey Zhou Jianwei, you are not attracted to that young educated youth, are you?" A frivolous voice came, and a tall and thin young man came over from the corner, with his lips curled up and a smile that looked a little malicious.
"What nonsense are you talking about? She is a female comrade. If you dare to ruin her reputation, be careful, Uncle Wei will not forgive you. Uncle Wei has said before that the Qishui Brigade does not allow any villagers to maliciously destroy the reputation of female educated youth." Zhou Jianwei looked at the visitor with a serious face, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
"Tsk, you're a coward with the will but no guts to do anything."
Xu Baoqiang rolled his eyes in disdain, looking sloppy, with a yellowish complexion and half-long hair like dead grass. However, his clothes were well-dressed, without a single patch, which was rare in this country area. It was obvious that he was well-loved by his family.
Xu Baoqiang looked at the cute little figure running away, and thought of what his mother said to him last night. His heart was burning with heat. He licked his lower lip with a smile, but glanced at the idiot next to him and sneered.
There are some things he definitely cannot let this guy know, lest he comes out to intercept him. This Zhou is the nephew of the brigade secretary, a scorer, and good-looking. He got the scorer job by himself. There are so many girls in the nearby brigades who want to marry him, even the educated youth.
"Let's not talk about that. There's something fun tonight. Do you want to come with me? Don't worry, your safety is guaranteed." Xu Baoqiang put his arm around Zhou Jianwei's shoulders, and the two raised their eyebrows at him like brothers.
"I won't go. My mother found out about me playing cards last time, and she almost had my uncle break my legs. If I go with you again this time, my uncle will definitely beat me to a pulp." Zhou Jianwei pushed Xu Baoqiang away and glanced at him warily.
There was one thing he didn't say, which was that his mother, his father, and his uncle who was the brigade secretary had told him many times, that is, he was not allowed to play with Xu Baoqiang.
Thinking of the beating he received last time, Zhou Jianwei couldn't help but touch his butt.
Xu Baoqiang frowned, looked at Zhou Jianwei's resistance, and pulled the corner of his mouth impatiently.
Although the people over there asked him to bring the sons and nephews of the brigade cadres to play there as much as possible, Zhou Jianwei was obviously scared by the beating at home last time. This guy was stubborn and stubborn, and he would definitely not go with him this time.
But if I don’t go this time, I may not go next time.
Xu Baoqiang's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at the other person with contempt.
"Tsk, how boring! I think you're such a coward! You still want to chase after a young intellectual from the city. She's so well-off, and you think she'll go with you just by giving you a piece of candy, just like those ignorant girls from the countryside. You don't even have a dime in your hand, you can't even take her to the movies.
Forget it, there's no point in talking to a coward like you, I'm leaving now!"
Xu Baoqiang left a hole behind, with his hands in his trouser pockets, and staggered out of the brigade warehouse.
Zhou Jianwei gritted his teeth, clenched the corners of his clothes tightly with both hands, and looked at Xu Baoqiang's back with struggling eyes.
Bai Nuo on this side quickly ran back to the educated youth compound. She rarely went out the front door in the past two days, and most of the time she went home through the back door of her own courtyard. She went into the house to get a backpack, and then went to the side cabinet to grab a handful of fruit candies and put them in her small bag, and then left the house again.
The captain and his men are probably still looking for the pig, and I don’t know if there is anyone at home.
Bai Nuo rode his bicycle to the captain's house, parked the bike, and saw that the gate was half open, so he knocked gently.
"Aunt Cui'e, are you home?"
"Here I come, who is it?"
The captain's wife was sitting in the yard washing vegetables and preparing to cook dinner. She responded when she heard the noise and guessed that the person was probably not from the village. The country people would just push the door and go in when they visited anyone's house, without any etiquette.
"Oh, I guessed it was you little educated youth. You are the only ones who knock on the door before visiting someone else's home. Come in quickly. You must be tired because it's your first day at work today." The captain's wife happily pulled Bai Nuo's little hand and walked into the yard.
She liked this girl because she was pretty, petite, and spoke in a soft and gentle voice in Wu dialect, which was completely different from the girls here. She was also sensible and well-behaved, and her way of dealing with people made people feel comfortable.
Especially the piece of cloth that was delivered a few days ago, it was really a timely relief for the family, otherwise her daughter would not have a decent piece of clothing to wear when she went on a blind date.
"I also want to thank you for taking care of me. Aunt Hongying told me this morning that I went to her house early in the morning and asked her to take good care of me. This is no different from my own aunt. Thinking about how good Aunt Hongying is to me, my heart is warm all day long."
Li Cui'e smiled and nodded at the little girl, the smile on her face was gentle and loving, "You are the only one who has a sweet mouth."
"Hey, then what I said is the truth!"
Bai Nuo raised her little face and smiled sweetly and sincerely. She didn't pretend to be polite to the other party, as if she was really a relative. She said, "By the way, Auntie, I came here to ask if you have any vegetable seeds. I want to exchange some. I have two small vegetable plots in the yard of my house and I want to grow some vegetables to eat."
You know what, these cheerful and generous country ladies and aunties really like this kind of girl who is not pretentious, not shy, and is straightforward.
Sure enough, when Li Cui'e heard Bai Nuo's words, she laughed even more happily and pulled him to sit on the small bench in the yard: "I just want some vegetable seeds from my aunt's house. What are you going to exchange for? Sit and wait, and I'll give it to you."
"Okay, thank you, auntie." Bai Nuo nodded readily and sat obediently on the bench.
Li Cui'e smiled with satisfaction, turned around and went to the utility room to find seeds for the child.
Ten minutes later, Li Cui'e took out an old cloth bag, which was filled with a lot of vegetable seeds, including radishes, cabbages, kidney beans, lettuce, eggplants, peppers, onions, garlic, cucumbers, tomatoes, and spinach.
Bai Nuo looked down at the small cloth bag filled with vegetable seeds that Aunt Cui'e had stuffed into his arms, and gently squeezed it.
This means I can grab all the varieties I have at home!
This aunt is so real!
The two sat in the yard and chatted for a while before Bai Nuo stood up and prepared to go home.
"Then I'll go back first, Auntie. I still need to go to the mountains to collect some more firewood." Bai Nuo put the cloth bag in his backpack and waved goodbye to Aunt Cui'e.
"Okay, come find me if you have anything else. But don't be polite to me, okay?"
"I know. See you later, auntie!" Bai Nuo was riding a bicycle, holding the handlebars with one hand, and waving sideways to the captain's wife behind him.
Li Cui'e looked at the little figure going away with a smile, and only wanted to turn around and go back to the yard when it was out of sight.
"Hey, Mom, what are you doing? Who are you seeing off for a thousand miles? Your smile is so annoying. I thought you invited someone over while my dad was away."
A whooshing sound was heard beside Li Cui'e. Wei Jia, the youngest daughter of the Wei family, who had returned at some point and was already standing beside her, tilted her head and looked into the distance with curiosity.
The gentle and loving expression on Li Cui'e's face disappeared instantly. She took a deep breath and tried to resist the urge to hit the child. After all, the girl was grown up and was about to get married. It would not be good to hit her again.
but……
I simply couldn’t help it!
"You bastard, you pissed your mom off right after you came back. How come you, a nice girl, have such a big mouth?"
Li Cui'e clenched her fists and turned around, grabbed her daughter's arm, and punched her on the back again and again.
From the skillful movements, it was obvious that he had beaten the child many times.
"Hey, hey, hey, mom, mom, mom, don't do it, it hurts." Wei Jia quickly shrunk her neck and ran into the yard, begging for mercy. As soon as she entered, she noticed a handful of fruit candies on Xiao Fang's table. She quickly ran over, grabbed one, peeled it and put it into her mouth.
"Hmm~ Delicious. Mom, where did you get this fruit candy? It tastes the same as the one my classmate gave me last time. My classmate's older brother bought it when he was on a business trip to Shanghai. It tastes nothing like the hard candy sold at the supply and marketing cooperative here."
Only then did Li Cui'e see the handful of fruit candies on the small square table. The candies were not big and each one was wrapped in a beautiful transparent candy paper. It was estimated that there were about ten of them.
After hearing what my daughter said, I couldn't help but wonder where it came from.
