Chapter 8: Jiaojiao, are you afraid your husband will run away?

The annoying person left, and Xu Jiaojiao focused on picking her tea again.

While picking, her eyes occasionally chased after that tall figure, calculating in her mind how she should complete the task later.

Although she was only doing it for the task, in the eyes of others, it was not the same.

“Jiaojiao, are you afraid your husband will run away?” An auntie joked.

“You don’t understand, do you? They’ve been separated for four years, it’s normal for them to be a little hot.”

A sister-in-law next to her laughed with a suggestive meaning.

Xu Jiaojiao: …

What the hell kind of misunderstanding is this! But she couldn’t explain it.

She could only blush and admit it with her nose pinched.

On the other side, Zheng Zhaoxing patted Qin Shuo on the shoulder and also joked.

“Your wife is almost a statue of a woman waiting for her husband, why don’t you go take a look?”

He said, his brother is handsome, how could there be women who wouldn’t love him?

Look, his wife’s eyes are almost glued to his brother.

He didn’t have this treatment when he first got married.

But when he said this, he saw that Qin Shuo didn’t even lift an eyelid.

“Hey, what’s wrong with you?”

Such a delicate wife, leaving her at home for four years, not to mention, now she’s back and ignoring him?

Xu Jiaojiao’s appearance is not the best, but she is better than the average, she is like a flower in the team.

Seeing his brother’s wooden expression, Zheng Zhaoxing couldn’t help but worry for him.

Qin Shuo didn’t speak, he just kept carrying the tea leaves from the tea garden, bag after bag, to the outside.

Seeing him like this, Zheng Zhaoxing shook his head, “I think you’re going to regret it later.”

He spoke with the tone of a veteran.

And Qin Shuo’s response was to carry the tea leaves and leave.

His legs were still not very strong, but his work speed was no slower than his.

Zheng Zhaoxing was also convinced.

“Take it easy, don’t do so much!”

The tea picking continued until 11 o’clock, and everyone went to rest under the trees.

They were going to eat something, move the tea leaves down, and continue picking at 1 o’clock.

Xu Jiaojiao wiped her sweat and followed Ding Xiujing to a pond.

Although it was April, it was still a bit cold in Wuyang County.

The pond was surrounded by hills on three sides, with no wind blowing in, it was very comfortable.

There were not many people at this time, Xu Jiaojiao took out her towel and was about to wet it when she saw the reflection of a person in the water. She was stunned for a moment.

This Xu Jiaojiao has the same name as her, not to mention, even her appearance is seven or eight points similar?

Her hair is a little yellower, she is a little thinner, and her skin is not as white.

But her facial features are almost the same.

“Xu Jiaojiao, hurry up!” Ding Xiujing saw her spacing out again, and urged her impatiently.

“Oh, okay!”

Xu Jiaojiao came back to her senses, she didn’t hesitate any longer, she wet the towel and wiped it casually.

The water in the pond was warm, she washed her face, and immediately felt much more comfortable.

After a while, other people came to the edge of the pond.

The two sisters-in-law didn’t stay long, they quickly gave up their position.

Xu Jiaojiao had been up early and hadn’t eaten anything.

Her stomach was already empty, and now she was dizzy with hunger.

When she went out, she walked in front, Ding Xiujing followed behind.

The path to the pond was very narrow, two people could barely pass, they could only walk one after the other.

Occasionally they met other people from the team on the road, they had to stand and let them pass.

The road was narrow, but there were many people.

Before she got out of the pond, she ran into the people from the educated youth point.

And the one walking in front was none other than Gu Qingbai?

As soon as he saw her, Gu Qingbai reflexively frowned.

Thinking of her infatuated gaze, he felt even more disgusted.

But to his surprise, Xu Jiaojiao didn’t look at him at all.

As if he was just an irrelevant stranger.

As they passed each other, she quickly flashed into the bushes.

It was as if he was some kind of virus, and she was afraid of getting even a little bit of it.

Seeing that she really wasn’t clinging to him, Gu Qingbai couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

While Ye Shuizhen’s expression was not very good.

Because Xu Jiaojiao really changed.

She no longer flattered her, let alone helping them with their work.

Thinking of the cold faces of the other educated youths just now, Ye Shuizhen felt a pang of resentment in her heart.

And Li Wenxiu was just chased by Xu Jiaojiao for her debt, and now she wished she couldn’t see her.

How could she be so self-effacing to talk to her?

Seeing that she was no longer flattering her, Xu Jiaojiao was relieved.

She even thought of not asking for the money back for a while.

Leave her alone and stay away from her.

But thinking of the broken vest, she gave up the idea.

Finally back to the tea garden, Xu Jiaojiao felt like she was about to faint from hunger.

Under the tree, Liu Zhaodi was serving the food.

Qin Sheng and Qin Chao, the two brothers were there, but Qin Shuo was nowhere to be seen.

They were going to plant rice in May.

The men didn’t have to plow the land at this time, they all came to the tea garden to help transport the tea leaves, and they had to fry the tea leaves after they were brought down the mountain.

The men did physical labor, their bowls were bigger, and they were given more porridge.

Xu Jiaojiao looked at the sweet potato porridge in the pot, she couldn’t help but swallow.

She felt like she could eat a whole cow now!

Fortunately, Liu Zhaodi was quick, and she finished serving the men’s food in a while.

Then she started serving the women’s food.

In these days, the most feared thing when serving food was uneven distribution.

Because every grain of rice was something that could fill their stomachs, eating less meant going hungry.

But Xu Jiaojiao used to do less work, so she got the least amount of rice porridge.

No one thought it was wrong, after all, the more you work, the more you get.

They had to work hard, so you eat less if you work less.

But today she actually stood up for herself.

After a pause, Liu Zhaodi divided the remaining rice porridge evenly into three portions.

They were all the same amount.

“Thank you, sister-in-law!”

Xu Jiaojiao was touched, she quickly thanked her, then picked up her bowl and took a big bite!

The others didn’t have time to talk, they buried their heads and ate fiercely.

The whole tea garden was filled with the sound of people eating and talking.

Xu Jiaojiao drank several mouthfuls of porridge before she felt like she was alive again.

Then she slowed down, taking a bite of pickled vegetables and a mouthful of porridge, eating slowly.

Going hungry was not something unfamiliar to her.

She often went hungry when she was young, so she would eat voraciously.

But later she was bound by that system thing, and she had to practice etiquette.

She had to practice, otherwise, that cute-looking system would shock her!

It took her several years, and Xu Jiaojiao finally learned to chew her food slowly.

But her polite manner made Ding Xiujing stunned.

“Xu Jiaojiao, what’s wrong with you today?”

She was strange.

But also… strangely beautiful?

Thinking about it, Ding Xiujing couldn’t help but slow down her eating speed.

Qin Chao on the side couldn’t stand it anymore, he couldn’t help but scold his wife.

“Eat properly, what kind of weird things are you doing? Like an old woman.”

Other people eat slowly and look good, but your wife eats so slowly, it looks like an old woman who can’t move.

” Goutouchao, you dare say that again?”

Cough cough!

Ding Xiujing shouted angrily, Qin Chao didn’t do anything, but Xu Jiaojiao choked.

She covered her mouth and turned her head in embarrassment, only to meet a pair of long legs!

Xu Jiaojiao: …
