Hearing the door slam shut again, Xiao Di jumped up from the kang, lifted the quilt and mattress that were originally covering him onto Tan Xuan, and then rode Tan Xuan underneath him.
"Tan Xuan, you bastard, your method is to make me pretend to be sick? You also cover me under the quilt, do you want to cover me up?"
The more he talked, the angrier he became. Xiao Di didn't care about his head and butt. He pinned Tan Xuan on the bed and beat him randomly.
"Alas, alas..."
Tan Xuan begged for mercy in vain, until Xiao Di got tired of beating him and lay down on top of him.
"How can I make that elder sister think that you are really scared without covering up your red head and blushing? You see, it is working now. Not only does she believe it, but she also helps us to let Director Wang
I believe it too."
Xiao Di curled his lips and said, "You are quite bad. This is blackmailing others."
Tan Xuan chuckled, turned around and rolled Xiao Di off his body, and then hugged her tightly. "Who gave her a way to catch her? It just so happened that I didn't have to think of other ways to keep her."
"Then what was your original plan?"
"Secrets must not be revealed."
After Tan Xuan moved his hands up and down Xiao Di's body, he put on his shoes and got off the ground.
"Why are you going?" Xiao Di asked doubtfully.
"You have to do your best to act. I went to the car to get some medicine, but it still looks like that. You should get up quickly and go to the next door to lie down. I guess Director Wang will definitely come to see you when he hears that you are sick.
.”
Tan Xuan gave the order and went out. He took some medicine to treat stomach colds from the car and some food and drink. These were all prepared before they came. They didn't expect to find a place to eat and stay.
They have already made plans to "struggle hard".
Not long after Xiao Di returned to the house where she was supposed to live and lay down, the village director Wang Cheng arrived on a motorcycle with the female director.
"Leader, what's wrong with you?"
Looking at Xiao Di who was lying on the kang with a bad expression, Director Wang was extremely anxious when he entered the door.
Xiao Di "struggled" to sit up from the kang, glanced at Er Lingzi who came back panting, and said in a weak tone: "Director Wang, Director He, why are you still here? I'm fine, maybe
I didn’t cover myself with a quilt last night, and I was a little acclimatized, so my stomach felt a little uncomfortable.”
"Hey, it looks like your face is quite serious. I'll go find the doctor right away and give you some fluids."
Xiao Di waved his hand, "No need to bother, we brought some commonly used medicines, we have already taken them, and now I feel much better."
Xiao Di said with a look of shame again: "Director Wang, I'm really sorry. I originally planned to look for some materials with you in the village in the afternoon. It seems that we can't do it today. You can also tell me where we are getting married.
I can't go to their wedding, let alone take pictures of them."
"It's okay, it's okay. It's all a trivial matter. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. You don't have to worry about Erluzi's family. You should take good care of your health first. We'll talk about other things later." Director Wang is only thinking about Xiao now.
Di quickly get better, don't worry about other things. The leader fell ill in his village. He said he was acclimatized, but it means he ate something bad yesterday. I just heard Er Lingzi tell him about this,
He scolded the cook mercilessly. If there wasn't a big banquet that needed to be prepared by the cook, he would have beaten the cook.
"I'm really sorry. I couldn't help you. Instead, I caused trouble for you and Director He. There should be a lot of things for you to worry about at the wedding. You can go back and preside over the situation. I
There's nothing wrong here, just let Brother Li take care of it."
"There is indeed something going on over there. I need to go there. How about I let Director He and Er Lingzi stay?"
"No, I'm not that delicate. I just have a stomach flu. I don't need to leave anyone behind. I'll probably be fine tomorrow."
Director Wang also wanted to express the enthusiasm of the villagers, but was rejected by Xiao Di without hesitation. Good guy, if you go to such trouble to pretend to be sick, you are not here just to be taken care of. How could Xiao Di let others stay?
.Not only can the female director not stay, but Erlingzi, the owner of this house, doesn’t want to stay.
After Tan Xuan sent away the two directors of the village and the head of the household, Xiao Di jumped up from the bed, opened his clothes and threw a bottle of water that had been heated inside, onto Tan Xuan's head.
"You bastard, you can pretend to be sick next time. In the morning you asked me to cover myself on the kang to pretend to have a high fever, and now you asked me to stuff a bottle of cold water in my clothes to pretend to be weak. Why do you have so many bastard thoughts in your mind...
…”
Looking at Xiao Di who was cursing, Tan Xuan chuckled, opened the bottle and took a sip of water, "Aren't different problems with different external manifestations? If nothing else, did your expression just now deceive them?
Let’s get over it.”
Xiao Di rolled his eyes at Tan Xuan and said angrily: "Nonsense, you put such cold water on your body and you don't shiver. How can my face not be white? I really don't know where you got so many bad ideas."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work. Let's eat something first. I'll see where this house can be easily accessed. Let's have a good rest during the day, and I'll take you to join in the fun at night."
Near noon, Erlingzi came back, riding a motorcycle with the man named Niu Moer, and brought back six dishes and some rice in plastic bags.
"Two leaders, thank you very much for today." The two of them felt awkward for a while when they entered the middle room. After putting down the food, they lowered their heads and rubbed their hands, like children who had done something wrong.
Tan Xuan stood at the door of the west room, looked at the two of them and asked: "What are you thanking us for? She is sick to begin with. If you want to thank us, you should also thank you for bringing us food."
"This..." After being stunned for a moment, Niu Mo'er laughed and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome, this is what we should do. You eat first. If it's not enough, we will give it to you."
Tan Xuan looked at the rosy-faced man in front of him and said with a smile: "That's enough. I won't bother you running here day and night. It's troublesome enough. We just take this opportunity to take a rest. These days
I’m exhausted from running around.”
"Uh...hahaha..." Niu Mo'er forced out a smile and said, "Since the leader wants to take a rest, we won't disturb him. I just want to go to the brigade to inform him that it's time to start the banquet over there."
"Okay, you go about your business first. Thank you for coming over and bringing us food."
Niu Moer and Er Lingzi left. Although Er Lingzi hesitated to speak, she had no chance to speak.
The dishes Er Lingzi brought back were not bad, at least they looked good in the countryside. They were all big fish, big meat, chicken, fish and knuckles, and they were all whole. At first glance, they were sent by Director Wang, so Er Lingzi couldn’t just rely on Er Lingzi’s food.
Maybe what I got back was too rich.
Tan Xuan and Xiao Di were not polite. No one else was present. They ate happily. If Tan Xuan hadn't told Xiao Di to leave some on purpose to cover up her illness, they would have eaten all the dishes.
Two pure.
After eating, the two of them lay on the kang and slept again. It wasn't until three or four o'clock in the afternoon when Erlingzi came back with some food and drink, smelling of alcohol, that they got up from the kang.
Erlingzi put down her things and came to the west room. She asked with concern: "Miss Leader, are you feeling better now?"
Xiao Di leaned against the wall and rubbed his temples. He slept very comfortably that day and made up for all the sleep he missed last night. He just got up in a hurry and is not fully awake yet. "I just ate something and went to sleep again."
After a good sleep, I feel much better.”
"It's better, are you hungry? I brought something back, do you want to eat some more?" Erlingzi asked with a smile.
"No."
Xiao Di shook her head vigorously and refused without thinking. Yesterday, she saw that what Er Lingzi brought home was all the leftovers from the banquet. There was no telling how many people's saliva was mixed in there. Thinking about it, she felt...
nausea.
"Have the weddings over there been completed?" Tan Xuan asked from the side as if he were chatting.
"What to do...ah, it's done." Er Lingzi changed her words mid-sentence.
"What's the matter? Sister, is it inconvenient for you to tell us?" Tan Xuan looked into Er Lingzi's eyes and asked.
"No, no." Erlingzi shook her head in panic.
Tan Xuan laughed and said considerately: "If it's inconvenient, forget it. Although we are reporters, we are not gossip reporters. We are staying at your house and it would be a bit embarrassing to affect your life. How can we let you
It’s difficult.”
Er Lingzi bent towards Tan Xuan and said sincerely: "Thank you, it's my honor for you to live in my house. If you can help me cover up today, I know you are good people. But there are some things I dare not say,
Just stop asking, otherwise it will be bad for both you and me."
Tan Xuan nodded, "Don't worry, we won't ask questions that shouldn't be asked, and we won't pass on things that shouldn't be passed on."
After chatting for a while, seeing that Er Lingzi's expression had become relaxed, Tan Xuan continued to ask: "Sister, why is your village called Erwangzhuang? Is it because there are two families named Wang in the village?"
"No, this village is called Erwangzhuang because there were two landowners named Wang in the village before liberation. They called themselves Dawang and Erwang, so it was called Erwangzhuang. The Wang family is a big family in the village, and others privately call our village "Erwangzhuang".
In Wangjia Village, the leadership of the village has always been the Wang family. The village director Wang Cheng belongs to the second king's branch, the women's director also belongs to their family, and the accountant belongs to the king's branch. Er Lengzi and Wang Cheng who are working today are from the same branch.
, Otherwise, how could he be so busy..."
"Oh, that's right." Tan Xuan nodded and asked, "What about your family? Which branch of the Wang family does it belong to?"
Er Lingzi laughed and said: "My family's surname is not Wang, my maiden name is Zhao, and my ancestors worked as long-term workers for the king's branch. When I was young, I hired a short-lived ghost named Gu as my son-in-law, and I couldn't get along with the old Wang family.
It doesn’t matter at all.”
"Last name is Gu?"
Tan Xuan and Xiao Di looked at each other, their eyes shining with surprise.
"It's rare to see people named Gu. Are they also wealthy in the village?"
Er Lingzi laughed with the strength of the wine and said with a sad look: "What a big family, there is only one family named Gu in the village, but now all the people named Gu are dead. When I die, there will be no more people named Gu.
.”
"What!" Tan Xuan and Xiao Di were stunned for a moment, muttering in unison: "Is this her home?"
Tan Xuan and Xiao Di couldn't believe that there was such a coincidence in the world. They both looked at Er Lingzi in front of them in surprise.
I didn't take a close look at the woman in front of me before. I only knew that she was a middle-aged and mature village girl with an average appearance and no features worth remembering immediately. But now that I took a closer look, I saw that her face was no longer young.
I saw a hint of déjà vu, maybe not obvious, but the more I looked at her, the more I felt that she and Gu Xiaopan had a lot of similarities.
