You are unlucky and I am tough

After seeing Zhu Shaoyuan off, Cheng Shuang and Wei Qinglang walked along the path to the fields, wanting to see how many watermelons they had planted. This time they planned to plant twenty acres.

It can be used in our own restaurant, and if we add retail, the whole Luohe Prefecture can handle it.

As they walked, they were discussing when to hire someone to build a road to facilitate transportation in the future. Suddenly, they heard a hurried call from a distance.

"Someone fell into the water! Help!"

Cheng Shuang and Wei Qinglang looked at each other and immediately ran towards the direction of the sound.

The one shouting was a worker working in Wei's field, and the one filming towards the canteen was hoping to find a woman to come over and save him.

When the worker saw the two men, he immediately said, "Boss, a girl from the village fell into the pond."

Upon hearing this, the two of them quickened their pace.

The pond was still some distance away, and Cheng Shuang was panting due to lack of exercise, and was almost dragged along by Wei Qinglang.

At this time, most of the workers were repairing the livestock breeding area on the mountain, and some were too far away to hear it. Four or five workers by the pond were planting watermelons with Wei Nanxing and were standing on the shore, not knowing what to do.

They could swim, but since it was a girl who fell in, they didn't dare to go in the water.

They would be held responsible for ruining the girl's reputation, but they were just servants who sold themselves to the Wei family. If they went down, the girl's family would kill them with knives.

Rushing to the pond, Cheng Shuang and Wei Qinglang frowned at the sight before them.

Qian Xifeng was struggling in the water, splashing water everywhere and shouting for help.

She had fallen for a while. At first, she was close to the shore, but because she kept screaming and struggling, she was getting further and further away from the shore.

There was a bamboo pole floating in the water, which Wei Nanxing threw down for her to use as leverage.

Qian Xifeng deliberately didn't try to catch him at first. Later, when she saw that Wei Nanxing didn't come down and choked on some water, she became scared. When she wanted to catch him, the bamboo pole had already drifted away. This time, her cries for help were more sincere than at the beginning.

On the shore, Cheng Jinxiu was pushing Wei Nanxing towards the pond.

"Hurry up, go down and save them."

"Wei Nanxing, human lives are at stake. Why are you just standing there?"

"Hurry up, Xifeng is about to drown, are you going to just watch her die?"

Wei Nanxing's face turned pale. "I...I'm a man. If you ask me to go into the water to save her, it will ruin her reputation."

"How can you be so cold-blooded?" Cheng Jinxiu said sharply, "People are almost drowning, and you are still worried about the distinction between men and women!"

What they want is for you to ruin her reputation and force you to marry her.

"This is a life, get off quickly." Cheng Jinxiu pushed Wei Nanxing hard without giving in.

"South Star."

Wei Qinglang shouted from behind, and the two finally ran over.

Wei Nanxing turned around, as if he had seen a savior. "Brother, look at this. I told them not to go near the pond, but they insisted on hanging out here."

Cheng Jinxiu saw the person coming and thought that he had come at the right time. She said with tears in her eyes, "Brother Qinglang, Xifeng is dying. Please ask your brother to go down and rescue her."

Wei Qinglang frowned and narrowed his eyes. "Are you kidding me?"

If Wei Nanxing jumped down today, he would probably be forced by the Qian family to marry Qian Xifeng tomorrow.

I'm afraid this fall into the water was intentional?

He was the one who saved Cheng Shuang from falling into the water. The two got wet in the water and had physical contact before getting married.

Of course, although he was somewhat going with the flow at the time, the situation was indeed different. The river had just flooded and the current was rushing. If he didn't go down, he would have been washed away and died.

The fact is, he went down in time, but the original owner still died.

Cheng Jinxiu was stunned. "Wei Qinglang, why are you so fierce? I just wanted to save someone. But the person slipped and fell by your pond. You are responsible for this."

"Okay, go down and pull the person out." Wei Qinglang raised his hand and pointed at a worker.

"No." Cheng Jinxiu stopped him. "That's your servant. You let him go down to save people and ruin Xifeng's reputation. Do you want Xifeng to die?"

Wei Qinglang's face was cold. "Miss Cheng, what you mean is that my brother has to save this person, and if he dies, it will be his fault?"

This is what Cheng Jinxiu meant, but she couldn't admit it. She shouted, "I can't swim. If he doesn't go, who will? Am I going to watch someone drown?"

"Enough, get out of the way!" Cheng Shuang finally caught her breath and pushed Cheng Jinxiu away.

Wei Qinglang guessed what she was going to do and reached out to hold her back, "Be careful."

Cheng Shuang nodded, then jumped into the water.

The water level in the pond was about 1.5 meters. After swimming for a while, Cheng Shuang finally reached Qian Xifeng and grabbed her collar from behind.

Qian Xifeng was overjoyed to find someone coming to rescue her. When she turned around and saw who it was, she forgot to struggle for a moment and a trace of surprise flashed across her face.

"Don't move." Cheng Shuang's voice was cold, and he dragged the person to the shore.

On the shore, Wei Nanxing and the workers had already walked away. Wei Qinglang squatted down and stretched out his hand, "Shuang'er, give me your hand."

Cheng Shuang stretched out her hand, Wei Qinglang grabbed her arm, and pulled her out of the water with force.

Cheng Shuang went ashore and tried to pull Qian Xifeng back. Wei Qinglang was not in a position to help since men and women should not touch each other. He looked at Cheng Jinxiu who was standing nearby and said, "Help me."

Cheng Jinxiu reluctantly came over to help, and the two of them dragged the man ashore together.

Qian Xifeng collapsed on the ground, her whole body wet, her hair stuck to her face, and she kept coughing up water. She choked on water several times while struggling and was really frightened.

Before jumping, she didn't expect it to be so scary, nor did she expect Wei Nanxing to refuse to go into the water to save her.

Cheng Jinxiu wiped her hands with a handkerchief while complaining, "I really didn't expect Wei Nanxing to be such a person. Xifeng almost died, and he actually watched her die without helping her. If this gets out..."

“What’s spreading?”

Wei Qinglang had already taken off his coat and put it on Cheng Shuang. She tightened her clothes and said coldly, "Will this elaborate trick you have planned get out?"

Cheng Jinxiu's face changed, "You, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Cheng Shuang pointed to the edge of the pond. "I specifically instructed the workers to lay a lot of gravel on the bank of my pond to prevent slipping. You said someone slipped and fell in, but the gravel here is laid well, so how come there is not even a trace of slipping?"

Wei Qinglang also looked at the ground on the shore and sneered, "I'm afraid he didn't jump in directly?"

Cheng Shuang's face was filled with disgust and impatience. She looked at Qian Xifeng and said, "You dare to jump in if you can't swim? Do you know how deep the water in my pond is? Stay away from me and don't pollute my territory."

"From now on, neither of you are allowed to step into this place." Wei Qinglang added.

Qian Xifeng's face turned red and white, and she suddenly burst into tears: "Why are you accusing me? I just accidentally slipped."

"You've gone too far." Cheng Jinxiu gritted her teeth.

"You know what you're thinking." Cheng Shuang gave a final warning, "I'm telling you, stay away from my family. Otherwise, you're shameless... I don't mind making you lose face in the village."

Qian Xifeng was frightened by this look, and lowered her head and stopped talking.

Cheng Jinxiu rolled her eyes at her, calling her a useless thing.

He ignored the two of them and called Wei Nanxing to go home first.

After walking a distance, Wei Qinglang whispered a few words to Wei Nanxing.

Wei Nanxing realized that he was almost tricked, and thanked Cheng Shuang, who was soaked all over, "Sister-in-law, thank you."

Cheng Shuang waved her hand nonchalantly, "We're family, so stay away from these two scheming women."

"It's not just these two." Wei Qinglang thought that a fifteen-year-old boy could already be married here. Following Cheng Shuang's words, he added, "Girls in the village should keep their distance. Of course, if there is a girl you like, you can tell us."

"Yeah, do you have anyone you like?" Cheng Shuang's eyes suddenly lit up with gossip, "Old Man Wu's granddaughter Xing'er, I think I saw you helping her move things before, is she the same age as you?"

"No, no, I was just helping out." Wei Nanxing was anxious. "I don't like her. Sister-in-law, please don't say anything nonsense. I'm only fifteen, it's too early. My brother didn't get married until he was eighteen. I can wait a few more years."

"Oh..." Cheng Shuang didn't expect his reaction to be so big, so she turned to look at the person next to her.

Wei Qinglang said, "Don't worry, my boy. We won't interfere with your marriage. It all depends on your own wishes."
