Chapter 18: Encounter in the woods

Chapter 18 Encounter in the woods

is this real?

The entire production team knows who Zhao Hongxing is.

That’s a little gangster, a second-rate kid.

Zhao Hongxing lived with a widowed woman. Her reputation was not very good in the village. It was said that she often got into cornrows with some men. No one knew whether this was true or not, but no one had caught her so far.

However, his mother's kindness to Zhao Hongxing is indeed true.

Treat Zhao Hongxing as a treasure, the kind that I can't wait to hold in the palm of my hand.

Because Zhao Hongxing felt tired from working, she stopped letting Zhao Hongxing work from then on.

Until now, Zhao Hongxing is 21 years old and has never worked.

Ever since Zhao Hongxing was 16 years old, his mother has been worrying about his marriage. She arranged for a matchmaker to arrange a marriage, but her family's situation was not good.

We need a house, but the house is just a mud house that has been left. We need money, and the orphans and widowers have little income.

Want a mother-in-law? The reputation of Zhao Hongxing's girly style is also not good.

You want Zhao Hongxing? That's even worse. What girls these days want is a strong, capable man who can support the family.

Like Xu Xiangdong, who can work 12 work points a day, has a strong body, and a good family background. His father is still a worker, and his brothers and sisters also have good jobs. To be honest, many girls in the village like people like him, even the few next door. People from every village came to inquire about him, and they even asked matchmakers to come to his home to arrange marriage.

But they were all rejected by Xu Xiangdong.

He was devoted to Sun Zhiqing.

But Sun Zhiqing...

Xu Xiangdong was thinking, would Sun Zhiqing really kiss a second-rate guy like Zhao Hongxing?

On the one hand, Xu Xiangdong felt that even if Sun Zhiqing liked Fu Zhiqing but didn't like him, he felt that Sun Zhiqing was at least pure and clean and had good personal character. On the other hand, what he heard from Xu Jinning made him suspicious. .

So, Zhang Ailian, who was washing dishes, saw her eldest son go out with a whoosh.

“Hey, it’s so late, where are you going?”

“Take a walk, enjoy the breeze, and I’ll be back later.”

Xu Xiangdong walked out of the house and walked all the way to the woods.

He still planned to go and see for himself to see if Sun Zhiqing told the little girl that he was a person with bad conduct and liked to hang so many men.

Although he didn’t quite understand the word “hang”, somehow he seemed to understand it.

But privately, Xu Xiangdong still didn't want Sun Zhiqing to be that kind of person. If Sun Zhiqing really was that kind of person, wouldn't it prove that he was blind, deceived, and sincerely made the wrong mistake.

When Xu Xiangdong came out, he didn’t meet anyone else on the road, and the road to the grove was relatively remote.

At night, basically every household will not go out unless necessary. After all, they have to work during the day and are already very tired. They must rest and sleep at night.

And this part of the grove is connected to the mountains, and the mountains are densely forested. Someone even encountered a wild boar last year.

No one will come to this place at night.

When Xu Xiangdong arrived at the grove, the moon happened to come out. A bright moon hung in the sky, giving him some light. The surroundings were dim, but it was not so dark that he could not see the road in front of him completely.

but…

Xu Xiangdong stood in the woods. The cold wind was blowing, and the leaves were rustling. At night, there were still some strange sounds coming from the other side of the mountain from time to time.

Xu Xiangdong stood for about two minutes. When the cold wind blew, he suddenly shivered.

The surroundings were quiet, with no one around.

Xu Xiangdong suddenly laughed and murmured, "Xu Xiangdong, what are you doing? Don't be fooled by that little girl Xu Jinning."

Xu Xiangdong felt that he was stupid for even coming out in the two minutes he had just stood here. How can anyone be stupid enough to let the cold wind blow in the woods at night?

He doesn’t know how, and Sun Zhiqing and Zhao Hongxing even less know how.

“Little girl, you were deceived.” He muttered and was about to walk home.

As soon as he lifted his foot, he heard a voice not far ahead.

He immediately stopped, his eyes full of doubts.

Is there anyone else in the woods this late at night?

The sound and footsteps seemed to be getting closer and closer. Xu Xiangdong thought for a while and hid his body behind a big tree. Although he was tall and strong, the big tree just covered him. At that angle, No one who comes in will see him.

Of course no one would have thought that someone had already come in before they came in.

The footsteps and voices were getting closer and closer.

Soon, through the moonlight, Xu Xiangdong could clearly see the two approaching men and women.

His brows wrinkled slightly.

That little girl was really right. She was actually the grandson of Sun Zhiqing and Zhao Hongxing!

That’s right, the people who came to the grove at this time were Sun Zhiqing, Sun Meiwen and Zhao Hongxing.

“Sun Zhiqing, here are the meat tickets you wanted before and the cream I bought for you. Look, I got them for you.”

Sun Meiwen looked at this wrinkled meat ticket and remembered the chicken soup and chicken drumsticks that Xu Xiangdong delivered today, and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

Although she didn't eat the chicken legs and chicken soup, she knew that they were made by Xu Xiangdong's mother, and she knew they were delicious as soon as she smelled them.

It's a pity that Xu Xiangdong was finally sent away.

But this meat ticket is not bad either.

Half a catty of meat tickets is a lot for Sun Meiwen.

Since she went to the countryside, her family has not sent her anything, no money, no tickets, nothing.

Sun Meiwen knows that she cannot have hope for her family and parents.

It’s just that she also wants to eat meat, rice, and dumplings. She doesn’t want to work in the fields, be covered in dust, be tanned by the sun, or have calluses on her hands.

Since her family is not willing to give, what’s wrong with her relying on her own abilities to obtain it?

Sun Meiwen knew about the cream. Li Zhiqing from Haishi in the Educated Youth Court had used it. I heard it was a Shanghai brand, and she wanted it too.

It's just that Li Zhiqing is very stingy. He refuses to use such a large jar of cream. He really doesn't have the spirit of comrades to share with each other and help each other.

Sun Meiwen only mentioned the cream in front of Zhao Hongxing. She didn't expect that Zhao Hongxing could actually get it and even brought her a half-catty meat ticket.

This is really a big surprise.

Sun Meiwen reached out to take the cream and meat tickets, but when she stretched out her hand, Zhao Hongxing retracted her hand.

Zhao Hongxing is tall and thin, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. When his eyes are narrowed, it looks more like he is thinking of scheming.

At this time, the expression he looked at Sun Meiwen was even more vulgar.

“Sun Zhiqing, I got this cream and meat tickets for you, but I can’t give them to you for free, otherwise…”
