Chapter 273 The Female Cannon Fodder Who Falsely Claims Favors in the Historical Literature 14
Jiang Yueshu waited for a long time, but the ox cart didn't come. Instead, she heard the sound of wheels turning behind her. Jiang Yueshu didn't need to look back to know it must be a bicycle.
She had no intention of looking, but the sound stopped beside her. She turned her head and saw that it was Cheng Shuo.
He was riding a Phoenix brand bicycle. He was tall and had long legs. He put his feet on the ground and stretched his head to look over here.
When he saw Jiang Erya, Cheng Shuo's clear voice rang out, "Erya! Are you... going to town?"
Jiang Yueshu nodded and glanced at the bicycle under him with some envy.
Cheng Shuo immediately noticed the look in Jiang Erya's eyes and could not help but curl his lips slightly and invited, "How about I take you there! The second oxcart will take another half an hour, so you have to wait for a while."
"If you have something urgent, let me take you!"
Jiang Yueshu thought that she didn't have any urgent business, but it would be good to go earlier, so she nodded.
"Okay, thank you, Comrade Cheng!"
Jiang Yueshu smiled at Cheng Shuo with shining eyes.
Cheng Shuo was shaken by her sudden smile, and his fingers unconsciously clenched the handlebars of the bicycle——
"Comrade Cheng? Comrade Cheng!"
The familiar female voice became louder and louder. Cheng Shuo suddenly came back to his senses and realized that he had been distracted for some reason. He quickly controlled his emotions.
"Ah—what's wrong? Why don't you sit down?"
Jiang Yueshu: "......"
She compared the height of the back seat and her small body, and pretended to cross one leg, but was unable to sit on it.
Cheng Shuo suddenly burst out laughing, "Sorry, sorry, I didn't think of that."
After a pause, he spoke nervously, "How about I carry you up there!"
Jiang Yueshu nodded, "Okay."
Cheng Shuo's ears turned red. He glanced around like a guilty thief. After confirming that there was no one around, he quickly got out of the car. He supported himself with one hand on the handlebars and put his other hand around Jiang Yueshu's waist, lifting her up with force.
Cheng Shuo was very strong and Jiang Yueshu was relatively thin, so Cheng Shuo quickly put Jiang Yueshu on the back seat with just one hand.
As soon as he sat down firmly, Cheng Shuo pulled out his arms, leaving only his broad back facing Jiang Yueshu, holding the handlebars with a somewhat stiff body.
Jiang Yueshu waited, but the car didn't move. She waited again, but the car still didn't move.
She held the iron frame beside her legs, twisted her body and looked forward, and saw Cheng Shuo who seemed to be in a daze, and hurriedly called out, "Comrade Cheng, I'm sitting!"
Cheng Shuo was startled and the car almost fell over. He quickly tried to steady the car and tried to calm his rapid heartbeat. He replied in a hoarse voice, "Okay".
Jiang Yueshu was also startled by the sudden shaking of the car and subconsciously grabbed Cheng Shuo's clothes.
Cheng Shuo's body seemed to tremble again, and after a moment he whispered, "Sit still, we are leaving now."
"Okay." Jiang Yueshu responded obediently, holding Cheng Shuo's clothes tightly.
I don’t know what’s wrong with Cheng Shuo today. He seems a little unreliable. She has to hurry up!
If they lose focus while driving, they will all be doomed!
Because of Cheng Shuo's initial performance, Jiang Yueshu successfully doubted his driving skills.
It was not until the car started moving that she realized that Cheng Shuo rode the bike quite steadily. Even on some bumpy roads, the bike did not shake much.
Perhaps he was not used to leading people, Cheng Shuo was tense at first, feeling the person sitting behind him and felt a little nervous.
He pedaled stiffly until the oncoming wind blew on him and he felt the coolness. Then his previously inexplicably restless mood calmed down.
After arriving in the town, Cheng Shuo prepared to find a place to park his bicycle, while Jiang Yueshu wanted to stroll around. After making plans for the future, the two parted ways, agreed on a place to return, and left together.
After Cheng Shuo walked away, Jiang Yueshu began to look around and found that there was a state-owned restaurant not far away, so she planned to come there for lunch.
Apart from the delicious meal she enjoyed at Cheng Shuo's house last time, she felt that she hadn't eaten delicious food for a long time. Just thinking about it made her feel liquid starting to secrete in her mouth.
There is always sweetness after bitterness. After suffering for so long, it’s time to have some sweetness.
After making the decision, Jiang Yueshu walked along the main road. After a while, she saw the supply and marketing cooperative and the post office nearby.
She walked around again, taking out a pen and paper to write and draw from time to time, noting down every key location.
After looking at the route, Jiang Yueshu found a corner, took out the things in the space and fixed her makeup. After a while, a completely different boy appeared at the entrance of the alley.
After completing all the disguises, Jiang Yueshu walked into a medicinal material exchange shop and exchanged all the herbs she had picked in the mountains for money.
Then she went to the nearest bookstore to pick out some useful books just in case. After choosing for a while, Jiang Yueshu took a few books about farm tools, equipment, and sewing and clothing and went to check out.
After going out, she hurried to the scrap yard to find some school textbooks, and then went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some daily necessities, and then secretly put all the things into the space. She would definitely be separated from the Jiang family in the future, and she would need to prepare these things sooner or later, so she prepared them in advance.
After doing all this, Jiang Yueshu went to the place she had agreed to meet with Cheng Shuo. Unexpectedly, as soon as she got there, she saw Cheng Shuo waiting there bored.
Jiang Yueshu looked at the sky, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and walked over quickly with a bit of embarrassment.
"I'm sorry, Comrade Cheng, I'm a little late."
Cheng Shuo looked at the strange boy who suddenly ran over with some confusion. He was about to stay away from this person. The next second, when he heard the familiar female voice, he stopped, opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and kept looking at the person in front of him. He asked tentatively, "Comrade Jiang?"
Jiang Yueshu was startled, and then she realized that her face was still the same as before. She touched her neck awkwardly and nodded to Cheng Shuo, "It's me!"
Although he got a definite answer, Cheng Shuo still looked at her again with great curiosity, and praised Jiang Yueshu sincerely, "Erya! You are amazing! I didn't recognize you. The point is, it is indeed safer to dress like this."
Seeing that he was very interested, Jiang Yueshu thought about how she had asked him to help sell prey several times in a row, and estimated that it was very likely that he went to the black market, so she said generously.
"I just tinkered with this. If you are interested, I can share my ideas with you."
Cheng Shuo's eyes became brighter, and he looked at Jiang Yueshu with burning eyes, "I'm interested, I'm very interested, thank you for your help!"
Jiang Yueshu smiled and nodded.
As soon as he finished speaking, an inexplicable "gurgling" sound was heard.
Jiang Yueshu paused. It’s not her!
That's Cheng Shuo——
Cheng Shuo seemed to be extremely embarrassed as well. He blushed and changed the subject, "It's time for dinner. Let's go to the state-owned restaurant!"
Jiang Yueshu knew that he hadn't gone to eat because he was waiting for her here, and she couldn't help feeling a little guilty, so she nodded quickly.
The two then went to a state-owned restaurant not far away. As soon as they entered, they saw people sitting scattered around the restaurant. Today happened to be a market day, so many people took this opportunity to come over for a meal.
Cheng Shuo noticed that there was an empty table in the corner and quickly called Jiang Yueshu over.
After Jiang Yueshu sat down, Cheng Shuo went to the window to order food.
Seeing Cheng Shuo's familiar movements, Jiang Yueshu no longer paid attention to him and looked around curiously. This was the first time this body came to a state-owned hotel.
There is a cashier standing at the front window. The dishes served that day and their prices are clearly written on the wooden board next to it. Once you have decided what you want to order, you can just pay and tell us what you want.
There are a total of ten or so tables in the restaurant, and each table has two or three people sitting at it. Most of them are extremely absorbed in eating the food, paying no attention to anything else.
There was one table where people looked a little weird. The person facing her was eating with his head lowered, his head almost touching the table. Jiang Yueshu felt her neck tired just by looking at him.
But that person seemed to be unaware of it. He lowered his head and concentrated on eating. When he looked at the person opposite him again, his view was completely blocked by a big head.
Jiang Yueshu moved her body slightly, but she couldn't even catch a glimpse of the face of the person opposite her. There were things piled messily next to the table, which just blocked the person's face.
Jiang Yueshu continued to watch calmly, only to realize that the person who had just blocked the man's face was actually Lu Jianjun. Her heart moved, and she glanced at the person opposite Lu Jianjun, and it was indeed Zhao Xue.
There was an aisle between about five or six tables, and Jiang Yueshu could see the two people vaguely.
Just at this moment, Cheng Shuo had also ordered the dishes. He was walking towards this side with big strides, passing by the aisle where Lu Jianjun and the table behind them were.
When he just walked to Zhao Xue's table, Zhao Xue seemed to notice him and suddenly exclaimed "Cheng Shuo"!
Cheng Shuo raised his eyebrows, only then did he realize that the two people were Lu Jianjun and Zhao Xue. What bad luck!
Before he could speak, Zhao Xue's somewhat shocked voice rang out.
"Why are you here?"
This is such a strange thing to say!
This state-owned restaurant is owned by the public. Anyone who wants to come can come. Why can't Cheng Shuo be here?
After meeting Cheng Shuo's gaze as if he was looking at a fool, Zhao Xue suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed the subject and began to excuse herself.
"No, what I mean is, I heard that your mother is seriously ill and needs a lot of money. How can you come to this state-owned restaurant to eat and drink? Are you doing this to your mother?"
Cheng Shuo's originally calm expression suddenly became gloomy, and his cold gaze kept shooting at Zhao Xue.
Such explosive news instantly attracted everyone to look over here, and even their eating speed unconsciously slowed down, obviously wanting to hear the gossip.
Even some impulsive and simple-minded people believed what Zhao Xue said and looked at the tall man with disdain. As for Zhao Xue, the righteous and just voice of justice, she was secretly admired by everyone.
Zhao Xue felt everyone's eyes on her, and the timidity that had originally frightened her because of Cheng Shuo's cold eyes disappeared. She only felt that her image became more and more majestic.
Jiang Yueshu frowned. Why does Zhao Xue always like to make trouble?
She has been criticized so many times, but she still likes to talk.
Just when he was about to step forward to help, he discovered something strange: the people at the table behind Lu Jianjun actually remained the same as before, as if they were not curious about such things at all.
Looking at the people at other tables in the store, almost all of them looked over here from time to time, showing great interest.
It would be fine if no one at that table was interested, but Jiang Yueshu clearly saw that after Zhao Xue called out "Cheng Shuo's" name, everyone at that table calmly adjusted their posture and moved the sundries piled on the table, as if trying to cover up.
This is strange!
Unless someone inside knows Cheng Shuo?
Jiang Yueshu was thinking as she walked, and when she saw Cheng Shuo was about to explode with anger, she quickly pulled him lightly from behind, and spoke to Zhao Xue in a low voice before him, and a voice that was difficult to distinguish between a man and a woman was heard.
"Excuse me, female comrade, are you a public security officer?"
Zhao Xue was stunned for a moment and shook her head subconsciously.
"Oh...so that's it!" Jiang Yueshu drawled out, as if she suddenly understood something, but left everyone else confused.
"You are not a police officer. Even police officers need evidence to solve cases. You keep saying 'I heard' and want to put the blame on this comrade. Are you more powerful than a police officer? Do you think you can just say someone is wrong and accuse and slander their reputation?"
Jiang Yueshu suddenly looked at Zhao Xue with a stern face, which seemed quite aggressive.
Zhao Xue's face turned red instantly, and Lu Jianjun, who had been keeping out of the matter, suddenly changed his expression. He glanced at Zhao Xue and inexplicably felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, and said with a little apology.
"I'm sorry, young comrade. My wife was confused for a moment and said the wrong thing."
When saying this, what Lu Jianjun was thinking in his heart was, he didn't know how many times he had said this, why did Axue always do this!
Zhao Xue bit her lips unwillingly, not understanding why she was being criticized by this nosy idiot who appeared out of nowhere and meddled in other people's business when she was clearly telling the truth.
Especially since her most trusted lover, a soldier in the army, had to surrender in public and even said that she had said the wrong thing.
But when she was looked at by Lu Jianjun's dark eyes before, she seemed to understand the warning in Lu Jianjun's eyes. Although she didn't know the reason, she could only bite her lip and shut up.
Jiang Yueshu was somewhat dissatisfied with Lu Jianjun and the way he tried to smooth things over. "Comrade, you are quite skilled at apologizing! Since you know that it was your wife who made a mistake and said the wrong thing, you should apologize to this young man in front of everyone, not to me! After all, this is a matter of defaming someone's reputation!"
