Chapter 41: What are you doing

Xiang Jianming waved his hand, "What nonsense! All six hundred and fifty jin were sold out! Everyone line up, start distributing money!"

This sentence instantly swept away the oppressive atmosphere of the threshing floor. Accompanied by sporadic cheers, the entire threshing floor boiled again.

"Don't make noise, line up at the team leader who collected the vegetables, start collecting wages!"

Xiang Jianming's voice was very loud, full of excitement and firmness. The villagers were all happy, discussing how to spend the money, adding daily necessities to the family, or saving it for children to go to school.

As they talked, some villagers held the money and started to wipe tears. Children chased and played, comparing whose family received more wages. Many experienced farmers had already started discussing what vegetables to plant in winter so that the vegetable garden could continuously supply the county.

The noisy discussion was all about the villagers' hope and enthusiasm for life.

Su Qianyue stood on the side, a sense of accomplishment filling her heart.

Every villager who finished collecting wages cherished the few cents in their hands. Then they ran to the village head and Su Qianyue to thank them.

An old lady nearly seventy years old held Su Qianyue's hand, "Qianyue, thank you. I, an old woman, can save money to buy a coffin for myself before I die, it's worth it!"

Su Qianyue had heard her sister-in-law talk about Song Popo. She had no children and lived alone. She was sixty-eight years old and still worked every day, living a very hard life.

Her vegetable garden was well managed, and she earned two cents today, which made her extremely excited.

"Song Popo, this is the result of our village working together. I just contributed a small effort." Su Qianyue smiled kindly and gently.

Everyone surrounded her and kept saying nice things.

Su Qianqian in the distance was so angry she pinched her palms red. She didn't expect Su Qianyue to be so lucky. If she could work in the cooperative, she could definitely handle this matter.

It's all Su Qianyue's fault!

If it weren't for her snatching away her seventeen years, causing her to have no culture and find no good job now, this honor today wouldn't have been Su Qianyue's turn at all!

Fortunately, her primary goal of going to the countryside—snatching back Shen Xunbao—had succeeded. When she and the prominent Brother Shen built a big house and got married, when Mom and Dad and Uncle Shen came to the countryside, they would envy those who looked down on her.

At that time, it would be easy for her to deal with Su Qianqian. Thinking of this, Su Qianqian calmed the anger in her heart.

Xiang Jianming said happily, "Starting tomorrow, the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative needs one thousand jin of vegetables every day. Everyone will hand in about seven jin and six taels of vegetables tomorrow. It doesn't matter if it's a little more or a little less."

"Handing in two more jin of vegetables every day, how much money can we earn in a month?"

Su Qianyue smiled and said, "Calculated this way, the lowest earning is one and a half cents a day, and the lowest in a month is four yuan and five cents, and the highest is eleven yuan and twenty-five cents."

"My god, there is so much money?! Mom, we are going to get rich!" Li Gousheng jumped three feet high with joy.

Wang Juqin smiled until her eyes turned red. Soon she could save money to send Gousheng to school.

When everyone's discussion gradually quieted down, Brigade Captain Xiang picked up the loudspeaker again, his expression suddenly becoming serious.

"There is one more thing to say. Someone tampered with our tractor this morning, causing it to almost fail to deliver vegetables!"

"So starting tonight, the six teams will take turns arranging people to guard at night."

"This cooperation between our Shuangshui Village and the Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative has been publicized in the newspaper! Anyone who dares to make trouble again will be sent to the farm for reform!"

Brigade Captain Xiang handed the Xichuan Daily to the villagers to read. Everyone's expressions were serious and earnest, condemning the person who made trouble behind their backs one after another.

"If I catch that grandson who did the bad thing, I will definitely break his dog leg!"

"Ignorant thing, could it be that people from the neighboring village are jealous that we are making money? We must be on guard!"

Qiao Wang's temples jumped fiercely. He looked at Su Qianyue's confident and beautiful appearance from afar and suddenly regretted why he had broken off the engagement with her in public.

The Su family courtyard.

Su Qianyue was surrounded by her family to talk. Li Zilan spoke first, "Qianqian, does that Pei Huaiye have any thoughts about you?"

Su Qianyue looked at her family's anxious expressions, her little face flushed, and she immediately nodded.

Su Qingwu's brain turned, "Qianyue, that boy isn't going to marry you, right?"

"We discussed it..." Before Su Qianyue finished speaking, Su Mingqiang interrupted, "Pei Huaiye is not okay! You cannot marry him!"

Su Qianyue's bright, watery eyes widened, "Why not?"

Li Zilan looked at her incredulous expression and asked back, "Qianyue, have you discussed marriage to this step?"

Su Qianyue's cheeks were already dyed crimson. She nodded again, her eyes shining amazingly, tilting her head and saying, "He is my life-saving benefactor, I think he is quite good."

Su Mingqiang put the enamel cup down heavily, "He is a loner and fierce. He makes a big fuss, and he can even beat his parents and brothers!"

Seeing Su Qianyue pouting unhappily, he said earnestly, "Don't look at him showing favor to you because of the life-saving grace. What if he beats you after marriage? Yue, Dad said before that you can decide your own marriage, but his character must pass. In short, Pei Huaiye is not okay."

Su Qianyue was anxious, "Dad! You also know what kind of people his parents are. He was beaten by his parents and broke his leg when he was a child, and lived in a cave for several years. His temperament is a bit cold, but he is very good to me. And most importantly, he saved me twice. The first time we, we even kissed."

After Su Qianyue finished speaking, her face turned completely red. Her pair of peach-blossom eyes were glistening with moisture, charming and moving.

Li Zilan hurriedly asked what happened. Su Qianyue hid the key information and told the whole story of being saved by Pei Huaiye in the Capital.

"According to this, Pei Huaiye saved you twice!" Su Qingwu looked at his sister, then at Su Mingqiang, "Dad, why don't we investigate this boy first, after all, he and the second sister have had skin-to-skin contact."

Su Mingqiang's eyebrows frowned even more tightly. He didn't refuse but didn't agree either, silently getting up and returning to his room.

Su Qianyue looked at her father's back worriedly, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

Sister-in-law hurriedly comforted, "Qianyue, Dad just feels sorry for you, afraid you will be deceived." She saw Dad's bedroom door closed, and only then blinked and whispered to Su Qianyue, "He didn't refuse either, Pei Huaiye still has a chance."

By the small river.

Pei Huaiye raised his eyebrows and smiled after hearing Su Qianyue's words, "Qianyue, I will perform well to make your family satisfied!"

Su Qianyue joked, "Dad is just worried about me, don't take it to heart. They haven't contacted you, don't know your character. You look fierce, but actually very righteous and brave, very careful in taking care of people, and you look good, and your figure is also..."

Su Qianyue's voice became smaller as she spoke. Pei Huaiye didn't know when he had already held her exquisite, fair face with both hands.

His cold eyes were gentle and deep at this moment, staring at her bright, flowing eyes. The next moment, the two hugged tightly, and the two hearts began to beat violently one after another.

Pei Huaiye hugged Su Qianyue so tightly she couldn't breathe. Intense hormones surrounded her. Suddenly sensing something, Su Qianyue's voice was trembling and flirtatious because of nervousness, "What are you doing."
