Quick Wear: The Bad Girl is Reborn and No Longer Confused

Chapter 37: The Educated Youth Who Worked Like a Beast for Their Mother's Family 13

After finishing her own task, Zhang Hong helped her daughter and asked her to go and help Xu Zhiqing.

Zhao Yuanyuan did not refuse. Her parents worked quickly and would always come over to finish the rest for her.

With help, Xu Tao can work faster and finish around five o'clock.

"Taotao, let's take our time with the remaining little bit. We can't leave early anyway, so those who work slowly won't say we're lazy."

"Why can't you leave early after finishing your work?"

Zhao Yuanyuan was speechless for a moment, as if no one had ever mentioned it before. They just strictly followed the stipulated time for coming and leaving.

"Hey, I told you that I came back late from my parents' house that day. I passed by Widow Zhang's house and heard the sounds of a man and a woman having sex. You said her husband is gone, so who is the one inside?"

"My husband and I heard it from the haystack. The voice sounded very much like Widow Zhang. My husband was also malicious and spoke loudly. As a result, a man ran out with his white butt exposed. It was dark and we couldn't see who it was. We didn't go to dig through the haystack to save face for the woman."

"Let me tell you, Lu Yougen's daughter-in-law has become a completely different person since she hit her head. She used to be so aggressive and lazy, and everyone in the family had to live under her thumb.

He always felt that it was unfair for her not to be able to follow his son to the army after marrying him, so he gave in to his daughter-in-law in everything. His daughter-in-law was getting more and more outrageous, even snatching his son's food.

A while ago, he accidentally fell and hit his head. After waking up, he apologized and paid more attention to his son than before. Now the boy is fair and clean and very cute.

"Maybe he's been to the gates of hell and has become more sensible."

......

The ladies were chattering about other people's private affairs and didn't notice that two people had sneaked into the group.

Seeing that a group of old women had some leftover work but refused to finish it, Lu Weiguo gathered together to gossip and made up his mind.

It was even more of a headache to see Xu Zhiqing and the little girl from the Zhao family still inside. Those women chatted about everything, no matter what, how could the two little girls listen to them?

All the team leaders were gathered together, and after discussing the idea, they agreed that it was feasible. In the evening, after work, they were gathered at the drying yard to inform everyone of the decision.

Everyone was a little unhappy about coming home late, but after hearing the decision, most people shouted happily.

Only a small number of people who liked to procrastinate and were unwilling to work were left to protest, but they did not want to go up and embarrass themselves.

The minority obeys the majority. If 95% of people agree, it’s useless for them to be dissatisfied.

When Xu Tao returned to the Youth League compound, the people who came to build the wall were waiting, so he hurried over to open the door.

While they were working inside, Xu Tao borrowed the stove from the Youth League compound and boiled a pot of hot water, and of course gave them two eggs as a reward.

"Uncles, have a drink of water."

Everyone thought the little girl was sensible, so they took the water and drank it. The water was actually sweet, so they must have put sugar in it.

Usually, the candies at home are given to children or wives. They would never be willing to give them away. But today they found that they tasted so good.

Seeing Lu Bei sneaking in, he poured him another bowl.

"Thank you."

Lu Weiguo was very pleased that his youngest son had grown up. Not only did he work hard and offer suggestions, he also came to learn how to build a wall.

"Don't hide your secrets, teach my boy."

"Hahaha, of course, you'll learn just by trying."

After everyone finished their work and left, Xu Tao discovered a large backpack behind the newly built wall when she was tidying up.

When I opened the lid, there was a note on it with strong handwriting saying that chicken soup would be delivered to me in the evening.

"Fool, you don't even have a signature. You want to be a snail man."

Inside the backpack was a piece of fresh pork belly, about two pounds, as well as milk powder, malted milk, candy, and so on. At the bottom, there was a small wooden box, and inside was a watch.

Xu Tao's eyes widened, wondering how much all that stuff would cost, but she also felt a sweet feeling in her heart. She packed her belongings, carried her small backpack, and went up the mountain from the back door. She knew the exact location of the secret base.

At this moment, most people are eating at home. Only a few villagers whose families are really in financial difficulty go up the mountain. Every time they finish work, they will pick some wild vegetables to fill their stomachs while it is still daylight.

The further you go into the mountains, the fewer people there are. Gradually, it gets dark and only the occasional bird calls can be heard in the silent forest.

Xu Tao could clearly hear her heart pounding and felt a little regretful about her recklessness. She seemed to be lost.

The grass rustled, and Xu Tao held her breath, frozen in place. Suddenly, a dark figure rushed out, frightening her so much that she jumped around and screamed. She accidentally bumped into a rock and fell to the ground. She felt a sharp pain in her ankle, and her face turned pale with pain.

"Wuwuwu, Lu Bei, Lu Bei, where are you?"

It was completely dark, her feet hurt and she couldn't walk. She couldn't see clearly around her and there were intermittent movements, which made her feel scared.

After calling out for a long time with no response, Xu Tao didn't dare to speak again, fearing that it would attract a large beast. She began to collect the surrounding rubble into her space, so that if she encountered it, she would have a small chance to fight back.

After rummaging around, I had nothing to do, but I couldn't let myself panic, so I took out some biscuits and started grinding them bit by bit.

"Tao...Xu Zhiqing, is that you?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Xu Tao burst into tears and only calmed down after releasing all the fear in her heart.

"You...hiccup...why...did you come just now? I was so scared and my ankle was sprained. Ooooooooooo~ It hurts so much~"

The moonlight could only vaguely reveal the outline of the person, and Lu Bei was unable to check the condition of his ankle for a while.

He was anxious but didn't show it on his face. He patiently comforted the little girl before squatting down. "Come up and I'll carry you to the cave. There are tools for making fire over there so you can see clearly. Don't worry, I won't do it..."

Before he could finish, he felt a soft touch on his back, and his ears turned completely red.

"Go away, I'm scared."

The little girl's voice was soft and tender when she cried, and the man's heart was unusually soft.

With him by her side, Xu Tao regained her energy after a few minutes. She put her arms around the man's neck and said in a sweet voice, "Why are you there?"

If she remembered correctly, the location of the cave seemed to require walking through two narrow paths and a small cave to reach.

"You forgot to bring salt, I'll go back and get it. It's not safe to go up the mountain at night. If you want anything, just tell me and I'll bring it to you. Next time, you're not allowed to go up the mountain at night."

Perhaps realizing that his tone was bad, the man softened a little.

Fortunately, I have to deliver chicken soup to the little girl today, otherwise she would be in great danger with her injured foot halfway up the mountain.

What if he took another route to get it? Thinking of the consequences, his face turned pale and his tone became stern again.

"Remember, next time you must not go up the mountain alone, not even during the day."

The hot and wet liquid dripped down the neck. The man panicked and hurriedly put the little girl on the stone, at a loss as to how to wipe the little girl's tears.

"Burp...Wuwuwu, I was already afraid of my feet hurting, and you were still mean to me, you are a bad person!"
