Chapter 172
As if facing a formidable enemy
Liu Aiguo blushed, looked at his sister, and said harshly: "You... don't talk nonsense. Dongmei is a teacher, and she is in contact with educated people. How can she fall in love with a country bumpkin like me, let alone me?"
I’m divorced. Stop trying to pull strings here.”
When Zhang Dongmei heard this, her hands visibly froze and she felt a little unhappy.
She and Liu Aiguo clearly liked each other from the bottom of their hearts, but they were waiting for each other to break through, which really made Zhang Dongmei anxious.
Now that she heard that Liu Aiguo was so cowardly and didn't have the courage to confess to her, Zhang Dongmei became even more angry.
For her love, she decided to fight for it!
So he threw the rag on the table of the fish shop, walked up to Liu Aiguo, and mustered up the courage to say: "Brother Aiguo, you worry too much. Although I have a job as a teacher, there are no people as old as me in the school.
The men are all married. I think you are a decent person, hard-working and trustworthy. I cook meals and send them to you every time I have a weekend break. Don’t you understand in your heart? "
Zhang Dongmei couldn't bear it anymore. If Liu Aiguo didn't take the initiative to confess his love, she didn't know how long she would have to wait!
This time she didn't care about her face and made it clear to Liu Aiguo directly in front of Xiuxiu and Ding Cui.
As soon as the words came out, Liu Aiguo's face immediately turned red and he did not dare to look into Zhang Dongmei's eyes.
"Dongmei...I have always regarded you as my sister..." Liu Aiguo said hesitantly, his face as red as a cooked crab.
Xiuxiu and Ding Cui were both extremely anxious.
The woman has already understood what she said, but Liu Aiguo is still hesitating. Why does a grown man have so many worries?
It’s true, falling in love is hard work.
After pulling for so long, the baby should be born, and the window paper between these two people has not been pierced yet!
Xiuxiu saw that her brother was really incompetent, so she stepped forward and spoke for Liu Aiguo: "Sister Dongmei, let me tell you directly, my brother definitely likes you in his heart. Every time we meet
I have always told me to take good care of you and not let you do heavy work. He is just a stupid person. Today I will tell you for him - my brother also likes you, but he is not confident and feels that he is not worthy of you.
, that’s why I never dared to confess.”
When Liu Aiguo heard what his sister had said, he immediately became anxious and stared at Xiu Xiu: "Xiu'er! Who told you to talk nonsense!"
As he said this, he felt panicked in his heart.
She was afraid that Dongmei would be angry because of Xiuxiu's abruptness and would ignore him from now on.
So Liu Aiguo explained to Zhang Dongmei at a loss: "Dongmei, don't listen to her nonsense."
Zhang Dongmei's face had already turned red, she didn't say anything, she turned around and ran away.
She is obviously in her thirties or forties, but she is as shy as a big girl now.
As for Liu Aiguo, he didn't act awkward either. His mind went blank and he could only stare at Xiuxiu with a red face.
Ding Cui was eating melon excitedly.
As for Zhou Shen, he also looked like he was watching the show.
Liu Aiguo felt anxious and panicked, so he found an excuse and left first.
The corners of Zhang Dongmei's mouth haven't dropped in the past half day. It's like eating candy, and the sugar content of her whole body has been rising straight up.
Zhang Dongmei thought, luckily Xiuxiu told her Liu Aiguo's true thoughts, otherwise she wouldn't know how long she would have to guess!

Heron Island.
"Colonel Gu, a call from Yangjiazhuang!"
Before Rong Jin arrived at the office, a little soldier ran over panting to report.
Rong Jin felt happy—could it be her daughter-in-law?
I quickly strode to the office and the first thing I said when I answered the phone was: "Wife?"
Cai Wenqing's scolding voice came from the other end of the phone: "You brat, I'm your mother!"
"Oh..." Rong Jin's excited tone immediately dropped eighty degrees.
Alas, she is not my wife.
So disappointed.
Cai Wenqing said dissatisfiedly on the other end of the phone: "What is your tone?"
Rong Jin calmed down and explained patiently: "Mom, don't get me wrong. I thought she was my wife."
Cai Wenqing said happily: "Xiu'er is too busy and she doesn't have time. Let me tell you, the big fish Xiu'er raised are great. She is busy going to the town to sell big fish every day, and even bought one in the town.
The shop’s business is booming. Before it opens every day, people buying fish already form a long queue..."
As Rong Jin listened to Cai Wenqing's account of what happened to Xiu Xiu at home, a smile gradually appeared on her lips.
Although he can't see his daughter-in-law, listening to her mother talk about her can relieve his longing.
Rong Jin listened quietly, adding a few words from time to time.
Cai Wenqing continued: "Let me tell you, Xiuxiu has a business acumen. Now the business is very good. Ding Cui and Dongmei are too busy. They even hired a young man as a helper and he lives in our house...
"
Rong Jin immediately caught the focus of the conversation.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, mother——"
Rong Jin interrupted Cai Wenqing's speech.
He frowned and asked, "A young man? Living in our house?"
What is going on?
Cai Wenqing said happily: "That's right. I let that young man live in our house. The main reason is that this young man has no home..."
"Wait a minute..." Rong Jin frowned even more and interrupted Cai Wenqing again, "What about this boy, that boy? How many boys are there?"
Why did the fish shop recruit a man?
Cai Wenqing thought Rong Jin didn't understand, so he explained: "He's just a young man, he seems to be named Zhou...Zhou...Zhou Shen. Let me tell you, this kid Zhou Shen is quite energetic, but he is too thin.
, and his clothes were strange, and he didn’t look like a local from Yangjiazhuang. I asked him where he was from, but he didn’t say anything. Seeing that he had no place to live, I packed up the storage room in our house and gave him a place to live.
This child is really pitiful."
Rong Jin frowned after hearing this: "Mom, are you okay? I'm not at home, and you want a strange man to live in our house?"
If you still pity others, let's pity him first, his biological son. Now his heart is hanging high!
Cai Wenqing was not aware of Rong Jin's thoughts, and was still saying that Zhou Shen was pitiful, homeless, and not very good at work, so he followed Xiu Xiu to sell fish and so on.
Rong Jin immediately asked: "What does this person named Zhou Shen look like? How old is he?"
He needs to understand the enemy's situation.
Cai Wenqing answered truthfully: "I heard he is only twenty-four years old. He is good-looking. Many young girls in the village came to see him."
Rong Jin immediately became very nervous.
"What is Zhou Shen doing now?"
Cai Wenqing said: "I just follow Xiu'er and sell fish. When he first came here, this kid was clumsy, but now he has finally mastered selling fish. Even Ding Cui and Zhang Dongmei praised him for being much more agile than when he first came here."
