Chapter 81 The Ugly Girl from the Countryside 3
Qingyu completely ignored them, staring intently at Su Yining, determined not to give up until she received the money!
The surrounding villagers couldn't stand it any longer and were about to start criticizing. Chang Jiaojiao, with her sharp eyes, saw the brigade leader walking over. Her eyes lit up and she excitedly shouted, "Brigade Leader!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yining stiffened slightly, and the inner turmoil disappeared instantly. He gritted his teeth, took out ten yuan from his pocket, and handed it to Qingyu.
Qingyu's eyes lit up, and she smiled as she took the money. "Thank you, Su Zhiqing, you're such a kind person!"
After being given a "good guy" card, Qingyu immediately turned and ran away.
What a joke! The brigade leader is here; otherwise, he would definitely have reprimanded her!
That nagging, like a monk chanting sutras, gave her a headache!
The others stared in disbelief at Su Yining's actions. Chang Jiaojiao and Li Ziqi blushed with anger for the first time in a row, with the former unable to help but complain, "Brother Yining, why did you give her money? She's just being a scoundrel!"
Su Yining pursed her lips, her expression somewhat unnatural. "I feel sorry for her, and I don't want any trouble."
In fact, his heartbeat is still abnormal, as if he is exercising.
At this moment, the brigade leader came over with his daughter Liu Meifen. Seeing everyone gathered together instead of working, he became angry and shouted, "What are you all doing standing here?! Get to work now!"
As everyone watched Qingyu's departing figure, a collective sigh escaped them. Upon hearing this, they immediately fled back to the fields like mice before a cat. Several educated youths also left, leaving only Su Yining and three others behind.
The captain looked at the group and asked, "What's wrong with you guys? What just happened?"
Seeing this, Li Ziqi spoke first: "That ugly woman came to bother Yining again, and she even shamelessly took ten yuan from Yining! Captain, you have to do something about it!"
For Li Ziqi, Su Yining was not only of superior family background, character and appearance, but also very generous with money. Having ten yuan taken away was as painful as having her own things taken away!
It's better to give it to her than to give it to that ugly woman!
“That’s true, Captain. Saving people should be encouraged and praised. If this trend continues... who will save people in the future?” Compared to Chang Jiaojiao and Li Ziqi’s accusations, Jiang Yuan’s words were more reasonable, compliant, and persuasive.
Even Liu Meifen couldn't help but agree, "That's right, Dad, you should go and ask her to get it back. We... we can't bully Su Zhiqing." Her face was a little red, and she didn't dare to look up at people, but the little gesture of glancing at Su Yining from time to time still made the thoughtful people have different thoughts.
Chang Jiaojiao, in particular, changed her expression and couldn't help but move closer to grab Su Yining's arm, but the latter dodged her. Her body trembled and a bitter look appeared in her eyes.
Su Yining noticed Chang Jiaojiao's movements. Avoiding her was his usual practice, but this time he felt a little guilty and didn't dare to turn his head to look at her.
He looked at the captain and finally spoke up, "Captain, I gave the money willingly, so please don't make a fuss about it."
These words shocked not only the others, but even the well-informed captain was somewhat puzzled. "You don't need to pity Chou, you don't need to pity Liu Qingyu. You saved her, there's no reason for you to give her money."
"It's not that I pity you, I just don't want to go through all that trouble," Su Yining said calmly, her expression still indifferent, yet something felt off.
Jiang Yuan glanced at Su Yining strangely a few times, chuckled, and said nothing.
Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke. Seeing this, the team leader, even if he wanted to stand up for someone, was too embarrassed to say anything. He could only wave his hand and let everyone continue working. However, he couldn't help but feel that Su Yining was a bit clueless and too soft-hearted, not suitable for his daughter.
The captain was troubled by the thought of Liu Meifen's attraction to Su Yining.
City dwellers and country folk are incompatible. He has seen a lot and doesn't think these educated youth will stay in the countryside forever. Socialism is developing rapidly now, and things might change someday.
It's highly likely that things won't end well for my daughter if she stays with Su Yining.
Thinking about this, the captain was preoccupied and didn't smile all day.
————————~——
Qingyu took the money and left, heading towards the original owner's house.
Actually, it's called a house, but it's a dilapidated one, with drafts coming from all sides. I remember my home wasn't like this when I was a child, but my parents left after that, and more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. No one has cleaned or repaired the house, and it has long since fallen into disrepair.
Qingyu looked around the room, found a set of relatively clean clothes on the bed, picked up the clothes and headed up the mountain.
The system was somewhat surprised, "You want money? Why don't you go buy something first?"
Qingyu glanced at the grime on her clothes and said with disgust, "If I go shopping like this... I'll probably be kicked out, won't I?"
The system chuckled, but when Qingyu glared at it, it gave an embarrassed smile and didn't dare to say anything.
It's been a long time since it's seen Qingyu so disheveled...
It's funny, but also a little heartbreaking.
After thinking for a moment, the system went to browse the system store to see if there was anything that could be used by Qingyu in this world.
On the other side, behind Dashui Village lies a mountain. Qingyu knows from her memory that there is a small mountain spring on the mountain, which the original owner discovered by chance.
Actually, no one goes to the mountains normally. The mountains are dangerous, and there was even a tiger attack a few years ago. In addition, nowadays, as long as you work, you can have enough to eat, unlike in years of natural disasters. Therefore, villagers rarely go up the mountain.
But the original owner was truly starving. She was weak and not good at working, and others ostracized her, so she couldn't earn many work points and could only go up the mountain from time to time.
Qingyu quickly arrived at the mountain spring based on her memory. Along the way, she picked some wild fruits to fill her stomach. When she arrived at the mountain spring, she looked around and found that it was indeed a good place. It was well hidden on all sides and would not be discovered to a large extent.
And this place is deep in the mountains...
Qingyu excitedly began to take a bath, swimming freely in the water like a joyful fish.
The woman's laughter startled Sun Ping'an, who had just stepped into the deep mountains.
Today was his hunting day. He was holding several prey he had caught and was about to set some traps in the deep mountains when he suddenly heard a woman's voice. For a moment, he almost thought he had misheard.
These deep mountains are dangerous; even ordinary men wouldn't dare go up alone, let alone a woman.
Suddenly, Sun Ping'an thought of the dark-skinned madwoman he had seen by chance before.
Could it be her?
Sun Ping'an stopped in his tracks, his eyes fixed intently on the direction from which the sound was coming from.
Logically speaking, he should leave now, after all, there is a difference between men and women, and he is not a scoundrel.
Upon hearing that sound, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. The sound was clear and melodious, like heavenly music, and it stirred something within him.
Just then, a woman's startled cry came from ahead, as if she had been frightened by something.
Sun Ping'an's pupils dilated in shock. In the next second, his body moved faster than his mind, and he swiftly arrived at the mountain spring.
The scene that came into view left Sun Ping'an frozen in shock.
In the clear mountain spring, a stunningly beautiful woman was bathing.
Her skin was as white as snow, her long hair flowed like a waterfall, and her figure was graceful, like a fairy descended to earth.
Every smile and frown of hers was like that of a celestial being. Sun Ping'an was so captivated by her beauty that he forgot to breathe for a moment.
Realizing what had happened, his face flushed crimson, and his heart pounded as if it would burst out of his chest. He turned away, feeling both ashamed and excited, but Qingyu noticed him instantly.
She had just been bumped a few times by the fish in the water, which made her cry out in surprise. When she heard footsteps, she turned around abruptly and saw a man with his back to her!
Qingyu was startled and quickly grabbed her clothes to cover her body.
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
Her voice was full of embarrassment and anger.
Sun Ping'an blushed crimson, his mind going completely blank upon hearing this. He could only stammer, "I...I'm a hunter who was passing by. I saw some commotion here, so I came to check..."
As he spoke, he backed away, trying to show that he really had no bad intentions.
Qingyu bit her lip, quickly putting on her clothes while angrily shouting, "Get out of here right now!"
Sun Ping'an nodded repeatedly, but his feet remained rooted to the spot.
