The villagers were talking nonsense, and some words made Xu Laidi feel ashamed. She looked at Chai Jianmin bitterly, her teeth chattering. If there weren't so many people surrounding her, she would definitely go down and have a good argument.
.
When the villagers saw her look at Chai Jianmin, they looked at Xu Laidi even more unkindly. This woman was treating their rural men as fools. She would look for rural men when she had nothing to eat. She usually looked for pretty boys.
"Give me, let me..."
Chen Dazhu squeezed in with a shovel and stood next to Xu Laidi, looking pitiful as if he was begging you not to hurt this woman, which made everyone's eyes hurt.
Come on, you're not from your own village, so why are you meddling in so many other things? Besides, you haven't even finished all the work. It's not worth being deducted for other people's affairs.
Xu Laidi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw everyone leaving cursing, and his eyes looking at Chen Dazhu became much gentler.
Chen Dazhu smiled and walked slowly above Chai Jianmin. As he walked, he dug hard at the mud. He clearly remembered that there was a big stone buried in this place last year. If he could dig out the stone,
…
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and the villagers were much worse off physically and mentally than when they first arrived, so a notice was posted on the river digging site.
It turns out that the water conservancy department invited the county cultural troupe to perform at the construction site, so everyone can finish work early tonight so that everyone can relax after being busy for many days.
The performance venue was a temporary platform. The villagers sat on the ground. The performances included allegro, cross talk, singing and dancing, etc. The villagers gave warm applause to the actors' wonderful performances.
A sweet-looking little girl was loved by everyone. When everyone applauded and shouted for another one, she sang another song with a red face.
Xu Laidi curled his lips. At this level, she still had the nerve to come out and sing. If she went up, she would definitely sing a hundred times better than this person.
Chen Dazhu sat next to Xu Laidi and saw the disdain on her face at a glance. He sneered in his heart but said what Xu Laidi liked to hear.
Xu Laidi felt extremely relieved after hearing this. Chen Dazhu's hand secretly pinched her waist and tested her eyes, but all he got was a sideways glance from Xu Laidi.
Chen Dazhu smiled inwardly, it seemed that this woman was about to fall into the trap, and he would let her know the price of calculating him in two days.
When the project is about to dig into the river bed, a furrow must be dug out so that the water seeping out of the soil can flow along the furrow.
The work of digging furrows was very hard, and Chai Jianmin deservedly was ordered to dig ditches in the water. Chai Jianmin was unwilling to do so, but if he raised objections at this time, so many days of work would be in vain.
Some devolved personnel from other villages were also driven down by the village chiefs of each village. The weather was very cold, and they stood with their feet in the water. Soon they were shivering with cold.
When Xu Laidi saw Chai Jianmin's lips turned purple from the cold, he felt indescribable happiness in his heart. You ruined my reputation. I deserve to be cold now.
Chen Dazhu had been calculating the position and distance. When he saw Chai Jianmin finally standing where he wanted, he was ecstatic, but calmly pulled Xu Laidi.
"There is still an area in our village that has not been cleaned up. Let's go and it will be over once it is done."
Xu Laidi looked up and felt that this place was nice, dry, and not big, so he quickly followed Chen Dazhu up.
Under Chen Dazhu's hint, Xu Laidi finally dug out the big stone that had been loosened for a long time. With just a slight touch, the big stone rolled down towards the bottom of the river.
Xu Laidi's eyes suddenly shrank. She could tell at a glance that the big rock was heading towards where Chai Jianmin was standing. If it was hit, her life would probably be over.
"Chai Jianmin, get away quickly..."
Xu Laidi used all his strength to finally shout out the voice stuck in his throat. Chai Jianmin suddenly felt a sudden heart palpitation and raised his head and glanced in Xu Laidi's direction.
This sight made Chai Jianmin break out in a cold sweat. Without any time to think, he threw himself to the edge. However, he forgot that he was standing in the water, and the resistance made it impossible for him to escape from this dangerous range.
The severe pain in his legs made Chai Jianmin want to scream loudly, but when he pounced, his whole face fell directly into the muddy water, and he couldn't scream at all.
This incident scared everyone. Chen Dazhu was the first to react, shouting "hurry to save people", and ran in the direction of Chai Jianmin, rolling and crawling.
Chen Weidang was also stunned. Seeing Chen Dazhu's quick movements, he didn't care about anything else and quickly joined the rescue team.
Chai Jianmin felt that he was about to suffocate and wanted to look up so that he could at least take a breath, but when he moved slightly, the pain in his legs made him give up.
"Forget it, it's better to die than live like this."
Chai Jianmin repeatedly told himself that there was no hope of returning to the city. Even if he could be allowed to return to the city, the home in the city was not something he could just walk into. It would be better to die cleanly and save the pain.
"Chai Jianmin, let's get some air."
At some point, Chai Jianmin felt his head being held in someone's arms. He opened his eyes in a daze and saw that it was Chen Dazhu who was holding him. He felt slightly strange in his heart.
Everyone else carefully removed the big stone that was pressing down on Chai Jianmin's leg. Everyone quickly made a simple stretcher and carried Chai Jianmin up, and sent him directly to the county hospital.
Xu Laidi, who got into trouble, was so scared that her whole body was shaking. If Chai Jianmin died, then she would definitely be arrested, but she didn't do it on purpose. Who knew there was a big rock here.
"Brother Xu, please go to the temporary office first."
The village chief looked at Xu Laidi sternly. He didn't know whether Xu Laidi killed someone intentionally or accidentally dug up rocks, but intentional homicide was the most likely suspect because she had a problem with Chai Jianmin.
Also, if such a big stone was not prepared in advance, how could it fall as soon as it was dug? Xu Laidi suddenly figured out all the problems and suddenly turned his head to look at Chen Dazhu.
The corners of Chen Dazhu's mouth raised slightly, "Yes, you are quite smart. It's a pity that it's too late. Unless you beg me, your end will be jail. No, you may even eat peanuts."
Xu Laidi closed his eyes, knowing that he had really fallen into Chen Dazhu's trap this time, and now the only way to save his life rested on Chen Dazhu.
She made a gesture towards Chen Dazhu, indicating that as long as Chen Dazhu was willing to save her, she would marry him when he returned.
