Chapter 22.2

Xie Hezhang pursed his thin lips, turned around and walked back, without answering.

Shu Qingyao cursed at him from behind.

“Xie Hezhang, you don’t want me to live in your house, are you planning to secretly bring a wife back and don’t want me to disturb you?”

“Xie Hezhang”

“You dare to sneak around with another woman, I’ll chop off your third leg!”

Even Xie Hezhang, with his cold personality, was blushing at Shu Qingyao’s bold words. He couldn’t help but turn back to look at her.

Were all the girls from the city as daring as her?

Shu Qingyao pouted and walked up to him, “Are you trying to cross the river and demolish the bridge?”

Xie Hezhang pursed his lips, “No. If you want to live there, it’s fine if I move out.”

Shu Qingyao was confused, “If you move out, what am I going to do there?”

Xie Hezhang finally couldn’t hold back and blushed as he explained to Shu Qingyao, “We’re both unmarried, and we’re living together. Aren’t you afraid of what people in the village will say?”

It would be fine if there were elders in the house.

Those educated youths who were assigned to the villagers, which family wasn’t a complete family of five?

There were old people and young children.

What would it look like if Shu Qingyao lived in his single man’s house?

Not to mention that Captain Jin Zhuang wouldn’t agree, even Xie Hezhang thought it was inappropriate!

This woman was too careless!

“Oh…” Shu Qingyao didn’t expect him to care about that, “Are you afraid I’ll take advantage of you?”

Shu Qingyao hadn’t thought about “eating” him so soon.

Although they were both adults, it was still bad for their development if they had sex too early.

“…”

Xie Hezhang finally couldn’t take it anymore. He grabbed her slender wrist and pressed the petite girl against the corner wall, his tall and lean body blocking her way.

Shu Qingyao looked up in surprise, looking at the young man’s handsome face.

Xie Hezhang thought she was scared, pursed his lips, and warned her, “Look, if I want to bully you, you won’t be able to escape!”

With her kitten-like strength, any man could bully her.

Shu Qingyao blushed and coughed lightly, “I don’t care.”

If he wanted to now, cough cough cough…

Xie Hezhang: “…”

He let go of her hand and walked back expressionlessly.

Shu Qingyao chased after him, calling out to him a few times, but he didn’t respond. She was a little confused, “What’s wrong? Why are you angry? Xie Hezhang, you’re walking too fast. Wait for me!”

…

Xie Hezhang didn’t want to take her to find a carpenter, but Shu Qingyao still found one herself.

In this era, carpenters were respected. After all, every household in the village needed to make furniture. If someone’s table or chair broke a leg, they needed the carpenter to come and fix it.

Shu Qingyao took a large banknote and ordered the bed and table that the carpenter had made for the villagers.

Money talks.

The carpenter smiled and said he was willing to deliver the goods himself.

When Shu Qingyao returned to the dormitory, someone came to tell her that her parents had sent her things and they were at the post office. She was told to go and get them.

Shu Qingyao rushed to the post office and took a look. Wow! A whole hundred pounds of rice and a brand new cotton quilt.

They had sent her everything she needed for the winter.

Shu Qingyao couldn’t carry so many things by herself, so she had to pay the post office staff to help her take them back to the dormitory.

The things were piled up in the dormitory, and Shu Qingyao started to tidy up her small room.

She really didn’t want to live in the dormitory anymore.

Now that Xie Hezhang and Xie Xiaoqian were living together, if she moved in, it would be more convenient for the three of them to live together.

More importantly, she was afraid that the secret of her jade pendant would be discovered by the people in the dormitory.

Now, the jade pendant could only transmit small trinkets, but she had a feeling that when the jade pendant was fully charged, it would definitely be able to bring back more things from her dreams.

If the people in the educated youth dormitory saw it, it would be hard to explain.

Now she was living alone.

But who knew when they would send more people?

Then she would have to move out.

It was better to move in with Xie Hezhang now.

It would also help to improve their relationship.

Shu Qingyao was making her own calculations, and she was very energetic as she packed her small bag. In a short while, she had packed all the things in her room into two suitcases.

She wiped the sweat off her forehead and looked outside. The sun was already at noon, and the educated youths in the dormitory were coming back one after another.

She went out and went to the public canteen to find Jin Zhuang.

Captain Jin Zhuang was having lunch with his wife in the public canteen when he saw Shu Qingyao walking in from outside.

When he saw Shu Qingyao, Jin Zhuang put down his chopsticks and walked out.

“Shu Qingyao, you’re out of the hospital?”

Shu Qingyao smiled and said, “I’m out of the hospital. Captain Jin, I have something I want to discuss with you. You eat first, I’ll wait for you outside.”

Jin Zhuang looked at Shu Qingyao, straightened his face, and said, “I’m almost finished eating. Just tell me what it is.”

He didn’t dare to underestimate this delicate little girl anymore.

The matter of Secretary Wang’s family had reached his ears in the morning.

The Wang and Xie families officially separated this morning, and the best tiled house in the village was given to Xie Hezhang.

Xie Hezhang had no father or mother, how could he possibly control Wang Xingde? It was obviously Shu Qingyao’s doing.

Shu Qingyao smiled and said, “Captain Jin, I want to move out of the educated youth dormitory. I’ll let other female educated youths have my room.”

Jin Zhuang was stunned, “Move out? Move where?”

“I’m going to move in with Xie Hezhang.”

Jin Zhuang took a deep breath, “Shu Qingyao—”

Shu Qingyao interrupted him, “Don’t worry, I’ve thought it all through. I’ll take responsibility for any consequences.”

Jin Zhuang frowned and couldn’t help but take out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep drag.

When they first met, he thought this girl was a weakling. Now he realized he had misjudged her. She had been in Helian village for over a month, became a teacher, and made Wang Xingde suffer a huge loss. She was a real thorn in his side.

Looking at the girl’s fair face and clear black eyes, with an innocent look, Jin Zhuang’s eyes twitched a few times. He had a feeling that if he didn’t agree to her, this girl might cause him more trouble!

“What does Xie Hezhang think about this?” Jin Zhuang asked hesitantly.

Shu Qingyao waved her hand and took responsibility for Xie Hezhang, “Don’t worry, he’s fine with it!”

Jin Zhuang didn’t think there would be any problem.

Having such a beautiful female educated youth coming in and out of his house, even if she just sat there, it would be a feast for the eyes.

Jin Zhuang smiled bitterly, “Shu Qingyao, you’re chasing after him to his house!”

People in the village said that Tong Yuan was bold, but he thought this seemingly gentle girl was the one who was daring.

Shu Qingyao pleaded, “Captain Jin, please agree to it.”

“Since both sides agree, what can I say?” Jin Zhuang waved his hand, “I’ll help you move your luggage over tonight after I finish work.”
