Pushing open the dilapidated fence door, the two walked into the small courtyard. The big yellow dog tied to the west wall was pulling on the chain, jumping up and down, and barking. Zhou Jing put the bicycle away, walked to the door of the main house, and knocked.
He knocked on the door a few times and said with a smile: "Mom, are you at home?"
About two or three minutes later, Li's mother opened the door, smiled at Zhou Jing, and glanced at Fan Weifeng next to her. Her face suddenly turned ugly, and her voice was cold and cold: "Weifeng, are you still embarrassed to come over?"
Fan Weifeng lowered his head and said in embarrassment: "Mom, I know I was wrong. This time I came here specifically to apologize."
Li's mother snorted and curled her lips and said, "Come on, it happens every time and never gets changed. You'd better go back as soon as possible without wasting your time."
Fan Weifeng was a little reluctant when he hit a soft nail, and said with a smile: "Mom, I just want to say a few words to Jiani. If she is still angry, I will turn around and leave."
Li's mother immediately became angry, glared at him, raised her hand and said: "Jani is not here, go look elsewhere!"
Zhou Jing smiled and said softly: "Auntie, we have come all the way to see you, so we have to let you in for a drink of water, right?"
Li's mother nodded, opened the door, turned sideways, and whispered: "Xiao Jing, come in and sit down. Don't worry about him. This guy has no other ability but he knows how to bully Jiani!"
"You can't say that." Fan Weifeng muttered, walked to the window, and peered inside.
Zhou Jing entered the house and walked straight to the bedroom on the west side. He opened the door and saw Li Jiani. She was lying on the bed with a blanket covering her body, covering her beautiful and attractive body. She walked closer.
Only then did I realize that she looked slightly haggard and her eyes were red, as if she had just cried.
Zhou Jing felt a little sad and whispered: "Sister Jiani, what's wrong with you?"
Li Jiani stretched out her white and tender little hands, combed her hair, sat up carelessly, holding the blanket in her arms, and said softly: "I have a headache, it seems like I have a cold."
Zhou Jing sat by the bed and asked with concern: "Have you taken any medicine?"
"I've eaten, and I feel pretty good now." Li Jiani forced a smile and whispered: "Xiao Jing, the exam is about to take place. Why are you here if you're not studying at home?"
Zhou Jing smiled, looked out the window, and whispered: "Brother Fan knew he was wrong and brought me here as a reinforcement to ask you to go back."
Li Jiani shook her head gently, bit her pink lips, and said firmly: "I'm not going back. I've decided to divorce him now!"
Zhou Jing was doubtful and asked tentatively: "Sister Jiani, are you serious?"
Li Jiani nodded and said angrily: "Of course, living like this is really unsustainable. I would rather be single for the rest of my life than be with him."
Zhou Jing thought for a moment and smiled: "That's fine, I'll go out and talk to him. It might be good for both of you if we break up early."
But Li Jiani stretched out her right hand, took his arm, smiled, and frowned: "You little brat, you don't do serious things, why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Zhou Jing touched his nose, laughed, and said softly: "I know you can't let go. After all these years, you still have feelings for me, right?"
Li Jiani's eyes turned red and she choked with sobs: "He may have more problems, but he has a good heart and is very kind to me. If we really want to leave him, I would really be reluctant to leave him."
Zhou Jing sighed and persuaded in a low voice: "Sister Jiani, in this case, just calm down. If you have any conflicts, just talk about it in person."
Li Jiani turned her pretty face away and cried silently. After a while, she wiped the corners of her eyes and whispered: "Tell him to come in and coax my mother. The old lady is really angry!"
"Okay." Zhou Dingding nodded, glanced at her, and turned to leave.
Fan Weifeng stood outside the door, like an ant on a hot pot, circling around. When he saw Zhou Jing coming out, he hurriedly approached and said anxiously: "How is it?"
Zhou Jing smiled and said softly: "Sister Jiani, everything is fine over there, but the old lady is still angry. You have to coax her."
Fan Weifeng took a long breath and said with a smile: "That's okay. Her old lady is a sharp-tongued woman with a soft heart, but she's actually quite nice."
Zhou Dingding nodded and said with a smile: "Be diligent with your hands and feet and help the old man with more work. She will naturally have a good impression of you."
Fan Weifeng said "Hmm", hurriedly slipped into the room, took a clean towel, followed behind Li's mother, wiped it here and there, coaxed him with sweet words, and almost said all the good things, but Li's mother had a serious face and never said anything.
Good look.
He was a little discouraged, so he walked up to Li's mother and said with a sad face: "Mom, it was all my fault in the past. This time, I sincerely repented. You must give me a chance."
Li's mother put down her work, turned to look at him, and said coldly: "Weifeng, Jiani is too soft-hearted, and I can't bear to divorce you. But you are just idle every day, nothing serious. If you continue like this, what will happen?"
Is it time to head?"
Fan Weifeng accompanied his smiling face and said in a low voice: "Mom, don't worry, I have entrusted the relationship. After a while, I will be able to go to work at the agricultural machinery factory. Then I will work hard with Jiani, earn more money, and strive to live a better life as soon as possible."
Live a good life so that you don't have to worry about me."
Li's mother sneered, shook her head and said, "Only Jiani will believe your nonsense. After returning home, I'm afraid it will become the same in a few days."
Fan Weifeng was a little annoyed, but he didn't dare to show it, so he could only lower his eyebrows and continue to plead: "Mom, don't worry, it won't happen this time."
Seeing his repeated pleas, Li's mother finally relented. She sighed and waved her hand and said, "Okay, I don't care about your family's affairs. If you have any questions, go back to the house and talk to your wife."
As if he had been pardoned, Fan Weifeng nodded repeatedly and said, "Thank you, Mom, for your magnanimity."
Li's mother rolled her eyes at him and said in a cold tone: "Weifeng, let's put the ugly words to the front. If Jiani comes back crying in the future, it will be of no use even if you talk nonsense."
Fan Weifeng wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "Mom, I promise, this is the last time."
"Okay, I'll trust you for the last time." Li's mother was a little impatient with him, picked up a basin of clothes, turned around and went out.
Fan Weifeng curled his lips, dropped the towel, turned around and entered the west room, looked at Li Jiani sitting on the edge of the bed, smiled, and said softly: "Jiani, are you still angry?"
Li Jiani shook her head slightly and whispered: "Weifeng, haven't you eaten yet? There are ready-made meals in the kitchen, go and heat them up yourself."
Fan Weifeng waved his hand and said with a smile: "I've already eaten. I just ate two bags of instant noodles."
Li Jiani felt a little sad again, turned her head to the side, and complained quietly: "There is everything to eat at home, but you just don't want to make it. If I go out in the future, you won't be able to take care of yourself. How can this work?"
Fan Weifeng laughed, sat on the edge of the bed, and said softly: "Jia Ni, you are not at home, I feel so depressed that I am not in the mood to cook."
Li Jiani snorted and curled her lips and said, "Now that you know how to coax people, why did you yell at me this morning?"
Fan Weifeng touched his chin and said with a smile: "Jia Ni, there is no overnight feud between husband and wife. There is a quarrel at the head of the bed and a quarrel at the end of the bed. Next time this happens again, don't run home. Not only will the problem not be solved, but the old man will be quarreled."
It’s not good to worry too much.”
Li Jiani caressed her hair and said dissatisfiedly: "You have taken advantage of all the truth about love. Is it my fault again?"
Fan Weifeng chuckled and said bitterly: "That's not true. It's just that I was scolded by my mother just now. I really can't stand it."
Li Jiani spat and whispered: "Then who can blame us? We are not living up to expectations?"
Fan Weifeng did not argue, but turned his head, pointed at Zhou Jing, and said with a smile: "Jia Ni, before I came out, Xiao Jing and I discussed it. In a few days, I will ask my uncle for help and get me to work in the agricultural machinery factory.
We will be able to get paid in the future, and we will definitely live a good life."
Li Jiani was very happy after hearing this, but she was a little worried and said: "You won't cause trouble to uncle, will you?"
Zhou Jing shook his head with a smile and said softly: "It doesn't matter, as long as Brother Fan is willing to take the right path, everything will be easy."
Fan Weifeng rolled his eyes and said with some self-deprecation: "Oh, these words sound very harsh. Not only was the old man snatching me away, but even this half-grown man came to teach others a lesson. I am really a failure."
Li Jiani covered her lips with her hands, giggled, and curled her lips and said, "It's good to know. You have to get rid of those bad habits in the future to avoid being looked down upon by others!"
Fan Weifeng laughed a few times, raised his hand and said: "Xiao Jing, you go out for a walk first and let me apologize to my wife. You are by my side, so I can't say a lot."
Zhou Dingding nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then I won't be a light bulb, but you two, please don't quarrel anymore."
Li Jiani smiled sweetly and said softly: "Little boy, what do you know? How can a couple live their lives without bickering?"
Zhou Jing was a little speechless, shook his head and left, came to the yard, watched Li's mother feeding the chickens, and said with a smile: "Auntie, I'm here, why don't you kill a chicken as a reward?"
Li's mother snorted and said full of complaints: "This uncle really made the wrong choice. He has no abilities and a bad temper."
Zhou Jing smiled and said softly: "Brother Fan had some shortcomings in the past, but since he wants to change, he must be given a chance."
Li's mother put down the basin, wiped her hands on her apron a few times, frowned and said, "Xiao Jing, tell me, with Jiani's appearance, what kind of person can you find if you leave him, Fan Weifeng?"
Zhou Dingding nodded and said with a smile: "That's true, but Sister Jiani still has feelings for him."
Li's mother looked back and said nothing. After a while, she sighed and frowned: "Xiao Jing, go to the back mountain and call the old man back. Let's make dumplings tonight."
"Okay, ma'am, I'll go right away." Zhou Jing agreed readily, walked out of the yard and walked along the rugged path towards the mountainside.
The scenery here is superb, and the air is exceptionally fresh, exuding the fragrance of earth. Zhou Jing was originally in a very good mood, but thinking of Fan Weifeng's previous words, his mood became somewhat contradictory and uneasy.
If things really develop in that direction, the relationship between the three of them will become extremely delicate. What's more, Zhou Jing cherishes the friendship with Li Jiani very much and cannot bear to destroy it. At this time, he feels a little regretful. He should not be impulsive and casual.
Agree.
Of course, he also knew that although Fan Weifeng had a good plan, it would not be easy to do Tong Li Jiani's job. Maybe if it takes a while, he would change his mind, right?
Unknowingly, he came to the back mountain and walked around the hillside. He only saw two scattered oxen, but no trace of Li's father. Zhou Jing came to the top of the mountain and looked down, only to find a white van.
Driving from a distance, it stopped at the foot of the mountain.
Then, the car door opened, and two men jumped out, each carrying a sack, and walked furtively up the mountain.
This made him feel a little strange. The back mountain here was usually very quiet, and very few people came here. Looking at the clothes of the two people, it seemed a bit suspicious. However, he didn't think much about it and walked down the mountain along the original path.
After walking for seven or eight minutes, he suddenly heard weak shouts, as if someone was shouting "help", but the shouts only lasted a few times and then suddenly stopped. Zhou Jing's nerves suddenly became tense, and he followed the sound.
He ran over quickly.
After running more than thirty meters away, Zhou Jing hid behind a big tree and looked forward. Not far away, he saw two young men with short crew cuts, holding daggers in their hands, standing in the clearing in the forest.
Talk inside.
There were actually two people tied to a pine tree in front of them. One of them was tall, wearing a blue top, lead-gray jeans, and had fluffy hair that covered half of his pretty face.
Next to her was a three- or four-year-old girl, wearing a white floral skirt and a pink hairpin on her head. Both of them had rags stuffed in their mouths. Although they were panicked, they were unable to call for help.
"Oops, I'm afraid I might have been kidnapped!" Zhou Jing frowned slightly, this thought flashed through his mind, and he hurriedly hid his figure, preparing to find an opportunity to take action to rescue the two kidnapped hostages.
