Chapter 041 Face-to-face communication (1)
"Hey, be careful, there is a snake here!" Liu Xinjian used the torch in his hand to burn the small snake coiled on the field ridge.
Chen Zhaodi was trying hard to find a suitable reason to send Zhang Hongliang away, and Liu Xinjian discovered the logical reason: "Hong Liang, don't go there without wearing rain boots. So, please send Xinyu home first."
Anyway, Liu Qingshan and Liu Xinjian have learned to use tools to catch eels, and it doesn't matter whether Liu Xinyu is there or not.
Liu Xinyu glanced at Chen Zhaodi silently and did not object.
She should also talk to Zhang Hongliang face to face.
"Nai, I'm going back first. You all should be careful and don't make it too late. You have to work in the fields tomorrow!" Liu Xinyu thought for a moment and took out the flashlight from her bag and handed it to Chen Zhaodi.
Chen Zhaodi looked at the dark night sky, pushed the flashlight back to Liu Xinyu, and waved her hand impatiently: "We have a torch, you can use the flashlight to light the way. Go back, go back, be careful on the road."
Liu Xinyu stood there and watched her family go away, then turned and walked towards the village.
The light of the flashlight swayed slightly as Liu Xinyu walked.
Zhang Hongliang silently followed Liu Xinyu's footsteps.
This section of the embankment is not wide, but it is enough for two or three people to walk side by side.
Whether accidentally or intentionally, Zhang Hongliang chose to walk side by side with Liu Xinyu and on the side near the river.
For a moment, neither of them spoke. Liu Xinyu wanted to test whether Zhang Hongliang walked to the side of the river intentionally or unintentionally, so she deliberately took two steps and turned towards the river.
Just listen to Zhang Hongliang's pleasant voice ringing around you: "Don't go to the river, be careful and you will slip into the river!"
Immediately, Zhang Hongliang gently took her arm, and Liu Xinyu was protected by Zhang Hongliang on the inside of the river embankment.
Well, not bad, Zhang Hongliang is very gentlemanly.
Zhang Hongliang, who was considered very gentlemanly by Liu Xinyu, was struggling in his heart at this time!
He really wanted to know what Liu Xinyu really thought about this engagement.
It’s just that these days it’s been either one thing or another, and I’ve always wanted to find a chance to talk to Liu Xinyu alone.
Today was a rare opportunity, but along the way, he opened his mouth several times and didn't know where to start.
He didn't dare to ask directly, fearing that being too direct would scare Liu Xinyu.
After hesitating like this, the houses in the village could be vaguely seen in the night.
If you don't speak again, you will have to enter the village. It will be inconvenient to speak in the village!
So after holding it all in, Zhang Hongliang finally spoke: "Xinyu..."
Just when he started to speak, Liu Xinyu stopped and said, "Brother Zhang, I want to tell you something."
"Ah, you say it." Zhang Hongliang did not expect that Liu Xinyu would stop. At this time, he had already reached the front. He quickly stopped and turned around to look at Liu Xinyu.
Liu Xinyu pursed her lips and chuckled, not shying away, looking at Zhang Hongliang openly: "Brother Zhang, you have been wronged about the engagement. I know that conditions like yours are a good match for that Ma Licai..."
"No, no, no, Xinyu, don't worry, Ma Li is really just a colleague." Zhang Hongliang became even more anxious when he heard Ma Li's name.
What worried him most these days was that Liu Xinyu misunderstood his relationship with Ma Li.
He and Ma Li are really just colleagues!
Although Ma Li's family has good conditions, and according to Sister Jiao, the women's director of the factory, he can save at least twenty years of struggling with Ma Li, but he knows very well that the consequences of having sex with Ma Li will hurt a man's self-esteem.
That is not only unacceptable to him, but also absolutely unacceptable to the Zhang family.
He is the eldest son and grandson of the Zhang family. How could he become the son-in-law of someone else's family?!
"Brother Zhang, don't worry, listen to me. I'm not saying that you have a relationship with Ma Li. I believe that Ma Li is just your colleague, but I can't deny that she is better than me. In fact, Sister Xinmei is also better than me.
Be outstanding." At this point, Liu Xinyu silently made a vomiting gesture in her heart.
Liu Xinyu will not admit that these two people are better than herself!
They are far from the real her!
It's just that now she can only choose to keep a low profile for the time being, well, let's just treat her like a dusty pearl.
These words of Liu Xinyu reminded Zhang Hongliang again of Liu Xinyu in the dream. In the dream, she was so self-pitying, and finally couldn't bear the blow and went to self-destruction.
"Xinyu, actually you are not worse than them, at least you are more educated than them!" Zhang Hongliang was not good at comforting people. After being anxious for a long time, he finally said something that made Liu Xinyu want to laugh.
At this time, because there is no news that the country is about to resume the college entrance examination, academic qualifications are the least valued thing, especially in rural areas, where the most important thing is the ability to endure hardship and work.
The original Liu Xinyu was not only unpopular in the countryside, but also disliked because she could not carry her hands or shoulders and was not even good at housework.
If the original Liu Xinyu was not a delicate girl, even if Wu Qiaozhen wanted Zhang Hongliang to marry a city girl, she would have accepted Liu Xinyu because of Liu Qingshan's life-saving grace, and would not have made various small moves against Liu Xinyu overtly or covertly.
Liu Xinyu was very curious about Zhang Hongliang's attitude towards that Ma Li.
That Ma Li was pretty good in this era, both in terms of dress and temperament.
When Ma Li appeared that day, almost all the men present, whether old or young, were attracted to her.
However, Zhang Hongliang did not give any face to Ma Li. He directly introduced himself to Ma Li as his fiancée and invited Ma Li to attend the engagement banquet.
Zhang Hongliang's attitude can no longer be explained by the constraints of the marriage contract.
I don’t know how many people feel sorry for Zhang Hongliang these days.
She was a girl from the city. Everyone could tell that the girl's family was in very good condition.
Where is Liu Xinyu comparable?
Of course, more people should praise Zhang Danian for his love and keeping his promises, and Zhang Hongliang's gratitude.
Liu Xinyu curled her lips inwardly.
In my memory, since Liu Qingshan passed away, many people in the village said that she was a lone star of evil.
He defeated Zhang Caiyue at a young age, and defeated Liu Qingshan when he grew up.
Thinking of these, and then remembering the day when Wu Qiaozhen pointed at herself and scolded her as a "lost star", Liu Xinyu felt a little cold, and her words became sharper: "That's true, I graduated from high school! But so what! I can't do it without lifting my hands on my shoulders.
If you can't even do housework well, why don't you marry me and take me home as your ancestor? Besides, I will conquer my mother first and then my father, aren't you afraid that I will conquer you one day?"
"Anything that can't be overcome is all superstition! If you really want to say it's overkill, my father and brother are the ones who can kill your father!" Zhang Hongliang frowned and stared at Liu Xinyu with burning eyes.
Since he came home, his ears were almost calloused by Wu Qiaozhen because of this so-called "gram"!
Liu Xinyu couldn't help but be shocked by Zhang Hongliang's attitude, and looked at Zhang Hongliang with her eyes wide open in surprise.
In the hazy night, Liu Xinyu looked up at Zhang Hongliang, her eyes blazing and almost too beautiful to behold.
"Boom", Zhang Hongliang felt like his heart was hammered hard by something, and a fire seemed to be ignited.
