Chapter 68: Shen Xingchen, what do you want to do!
The villagers watched Mai Sui and Shen Xingchen pass by them, and a fire of gossip spread rapidly.
“Look, isn’t that Mai Sui and Shen Zhiqing? When did they get together?”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Da Niu immediately stretched her neck to look, and then said angrily: “Shen Zhiqing was not deceived, was he?”
Other villagers had different opinions.
“In my opinion, maybe Mai Sui was deceived. Shen Zhiqing is not a hard worker at first glance. Maybe he heard that Mai Sui’s family eats well and wants to hook up with a rich man.”
“Stop talking nonsense here. Shen Zhiqing is from Beijing. How could he like Mai Sui!”
“So what if he came from Beijing? He is not sure whether he can return to the city.”
“Is Shen Zhiqing approaching Mai Sui on purpose and trying to rely on her relationship with the captain to cheat the return to the city quota?”
“Don’t worry, the captain is not stupid. Besides, Mai Sui has Mai Laosan, a tough dad. It’s not easy for Shen Zhiqing to take advantage of him for nothing.”
“I seem to see Mai Laosan helping Shen Zhiqing with work.”
“No way? He doesn’t even do his own work and goes to help Shen Zhiqing with work?”
“Has Mai Laosan changed his character or is he possessed by a demon?”
“I think he was probably fooled by the pretty boy from the city. Parents all over the world are so pitiful, they all care about their children.”
“Then this educated youth Shen is really capable, he can even handle Mai Lao San.”
Everyone was amazed here, while Mai Lao San was working hard over there.
Mai Lao San was depressed and could only vent on the corn.
It is said that girls are outgoing. He was ordered to help the pretty boy with work when they just got together. What will he do in the future!
……..
On the other side, Mai Sui and Shen Xingchen went to the river to fish together.
Shen Xingchen witnessed Mai Sui’s magical skills with his own eyes and was simply amazed.
Mai Sui can’t even be called fishing, it is more accurate to say that he is catching fish.
Moreover, every time you catch one, you’re guaranteed to catch it.
Shen Xingchen almost believed that his girlfriend might really be the reincarnation of Wu Quxing.
Maoqiu learned from the villagers that Mai Sui went to the river to fish, and immediately called his friends to run to the river.
Last time they exchanged a bundle of firewood for a fish, and they kept thinking about when Mai Sui would go fishing next time.
Now, the opportunity has come.
Maoqiu and six or seven other little brats looked at the fish in the bucket with shining eyes, as if they saw braised fish, chopped pepper fish, sliced fish… Hiss their saliva was about to flow out.
“Sister Mai Sui, does your family need firewood today? My father just went to the mountains to pick up firewood early this morning.” Maoqiu asked.
“And me, my family also has a lot of firewood.”
“My family also has!”
“I, I, I, I, I…” Someone was so anxious that he stuttered.
Because there were not many fish in the bucket, he was afraid that it would not be his turn.
Maoqiu lives next door to Mai Sui’s house. Mai Sui would occasionally ask Maoqiu to run errands and pass messages for her.
Although her family is not short of firewood now, it doesn’t matter if they store a little more.
Besides, catching fish is a very simple thing for Mai Sui.
So she agreed.
The children cheered immediately.
Next, Mai Sui caught the fish, and Shen Xingchen tied up the fish with straw to make it easier for Maoqiu and the others to carry.
The group was laughing and having a great time.
Hutou arrived late, and was afraid that the fish would be taken away by Maoqiu and the others, so he rushed over and hugged Shen Xingchen’s legs with one hand.
The other little hand reached out to the fish in Shen Xingchen’s hand, blinked his eyes and said, “Uncle, Hutou wants to eat fish too.”
Shen Xingchen was confused by the word “uncle”, and subconsciously gave the fish he had just tied to Hutou.
Seeing this, Potato, who was waiting in line for the fish, immediately stood up and said: “Hutou, this fish is mine. If you want it, you have to queue up!”
Hutou raised his head and said domineeringly: “This is the fish my aunt caught. Why should it be yours? I won’t queue up!”
Potato immediately rushed to grab it: “I exchanged it for firewood, so it’s mine.”
Hutou was four years old and Potato was six years old. Hutou was obviously no match for Potato.
Shen Xingchen stepped forward to stop the fight, but Hutou shouted at him directly: “Uncle, help me!”
“Ahem… Hutou, stop yelling, I’m not your uncle yet.”
Hutou was unmoved and insisted on calling him uncle: “When I came here, I heard from the villagers that you are my uncle.”
Shen Xingchen sighed helplessly when he heard this. He knew that the villagers would talk behind their backs.
Look, it hasn’t been long, and the rumors are flying everywhere, even a child as young as Hutou knows about it.
Mai Sui naturally heard it, but she didn’t take it to heart.
She walked over directly, snatched the fish from Hutou’s hand, and handed it to Potato.
Then she stuffed the fish she had just caught into Hutou’s arms.
“First come, first served, don’t grab it!”
Hutou looked at the fish in his arms, which seemed to be bigger than the one just now, so he smiled happily.
He knew that his aunt was the best.
Potato was happy to get his fish back, and soon he and Tigerhead were talking and laughing and making peace.
Then, they all went home happily with their respective fish.
Shen Xingchen also carried the bucket and went home with Mai Sui.
However, the two of them were now the focus of gossip in the whole village, so after Shen Xingchen got home and put down the bucket, he was ready to leave.
He didn’t want people to see him and Mai Sui, two single men and women, at home, which would have a bad influence.
Mai Sui stopped him and asked, “Where are you going?”
“I’m going back to work. It’s still early. I’ll come over to make dinner after work.”
We were in a hurry to get off work at 6pm before.
Now we get off work at 5pm. It’s
not even 4pm yet, so we can go back and work for another hour.
Mai Sui disagreed. She took Shen Xingchen’s hand.
This is a pair of extremely beautiful hands, with slender fingers, distinct joints, and clean and neat nails.
However, there are some tiny cuts on it, which destroy its beauty. They should be cut by corn leaves.
Mai Sui felt that these wounds were very annoying, and frowned and said, “Isn’t Mai Lao San working for you? You are not allowed to go in the future. Let Mai Lao San do it.”
Shen Xingchen knew that Mai Sui was feeling sorry for him, and his eyes were full of tenderness. He gently held Mai Sui’s hand back.
“Thank you, Sui Sui, but don’t worry, I can do it.
Uncle Mai is an elder after all, how can I let him help me with work, what if… he has a problem with me because of this and doesn’t agree with us being together.”
“What did you call me?” Mai Sui’s focus is always different from that of ordinary people.
“I don’t want to call you Mai Sui like everyone else. From now on, when there is no one around, I will call you Sui Sui, okay?”
Shen Xingchen looked at Mai Sui with lingering eyes, as if to drown her in them.
Mai Sui found that whenever Shen Xingchen was alone with her, he would become a little different from outside.
However, she liked this “difference”.
So she nodded heavily: “Okay!”
Shen Xingchen smiled, reached out and put the broken hair on both sides of Mai Sui’s forehead behind her ears.
Just when he wanted to say something, Mai Xiangdong suddenly visited, and then roared:
“Shen Xingchen, what do you want to do!”
