Quick Travel: Jing Yuan's Wanderings

While we were having breakfast, the news that the neighboring Jing and Guo families halfway up the mountain in the west would make their decision on the 18th of this month spread like the wind throughout the entire small mountain village.

Among them, Jing Yuan's promise to make Ji Chunyu a filial son and a virtuous grandson a hundred years later became the hottest topic of conversation among people after dinner.

People cursed Jing Yuan a lot in secret, saying that he was a ruthless person.

As expected, he escaped from a pile of dead bodies and fled from famine. In order to live a good life, he really has no taboos.

At the east end of the village, in a shabby thatched house, the 36-year-old You Laizi, who suddenly heard the news, had a ferocious look on his face and kicked a stool viciously.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, so he picked up a stool and started smashing things.

Damn it, the house and wife I had just got were gone in an instant.

Damn old woman, she’s really still alive.

Fuck your grandma!

I just want to have sex with a virgin girl for free! Why is it so difficult?

Damn it, Jing Yuan! You've done so many immoral things, no wonder your wife died early...

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin showed up and You Laizi's plan was completely disrupted. He hid in the house, lowering his voice and cursing.

He had been planning for more than a year, just waiting for Mrs. Guo to die. However, his strong desire to seduce Guo Caihe was abruptly extinguished. You Laizi was so angry that three blisters appeared at the corners of his mouth.

As for forcibly seizing the daughter-in-law that Jing Yuan has set his eyes on, You Laizi wouldn't dare to do that even if he had the guts.

Who was Jing Yuan? In 43, he witnessed with his own eyes this ruthless fellow torturing and killing several Japanese devils in the reeds beside the river north of the village.

He was so scared that he peed his pants and didn't get a good night's sleep for a month.

You Laizi was so furious that he could not help but shift his target. His gaze wandered and inadvertently fixed on the Youth League compound where several pretty girls with delicate skin and tender flesh lived.

Then, he smiled viciously.

……

Lieutenant General Jing Yuan, carrying a hoe, brought his adopted son and future daughter-in-law, and despite the teasing, mocking, envious, and jealous gazes of the crowd, all the way to the edge of the three acres of corn field that had been allocated to them.

Lieutenant General Jing Yuan didn't care about the thoughts of scumbags like You Laizi who secretly coveted Guo Caihe.

If you dare to stretch out your claws, just chop it off.

They are a bunch of bullies who only dare to act rashly when Aunt Guo is protecting them, let alone now.

Lieutenant General Jing Yuan was not happy to see the two young people being so affectionate.

He decisively moved away from the two men and started hoeing the ground from the other end.

……

After hoeing the cornfield for seven or eight days in a row, time passed by in a flash as General Jing Yuan became more and more adept at the work. Soon it was the day of the commune meeting, July 15th.

Before the rooster crowed, Ji Chunyu got up in the dark to make corn pancakes.

He branded nearly 30 pieces in a row before he stopped.

Then he hurriedly boiled a large pot of water and filled six bamboo tubes.

Guo Caihe woke up, opened the door, and saw a fire in the kitchen. She didn't go to the bathroom, but went into the kitchen instead, feeling a little annoyed that she slept too soundly.

"Grandma, when did you get up? Why didn't you call me?"

"Grandma is old and doesn't sleep much, so it's a good time to get up and make some dry food for the journey.

You still have to walk all day, how can you not get enough rest?"

"Grandma still has to walk." Obviously, Guo Caihe was not convinced.

"You have thin arms and legs, how can you compare with me? I am very agile, it's just a dozen miles, I don't care about your grandmother.

Back then, I carried a shoulder pole and walked for two days and two nights without stopping, covering hundreds of miles..."

Maybe it's because I'm really old. As Ji Chunyu spoke, he couldn't help but reminisce about the past.

Even though her ears were callused from hearing so much, Guo Caihe still didn't show any impatience.

He washed his hands with water in the wooden basin on the chopping board, helped to pack the corn tortillas, and responded from time to time.

"Eh? Xiao He, listen quickly, is there any movement at your uncle Jing's house next door?"

"Well, it should be Uncle Jing calling Ping An and Pan Pan to wake up!"

"Hey, my dear granddaughter, why are you still standing here? Go back to your room, change your clothes, and dress up.

It is said that women dress to please themselves, but we should show an attitude!"

Guo Caihe stubbornly retorted, "What's the point of dressing up? I'll see you everywhere I go. Ping An has seen all my embarrassing looks!"

Ji Chunyu tapped his granddaughter's forehead with his finger in annoyance, "How can it be the same? The past is the past, and the present is the present. What is your relationship with Ping An now? Don't you know?

Stop being stubborn, go back to your room and tidy yourself up.

Your uncle Jing has to get up early to grab a better stall and sell things!"

"Okay, I'll go right away..."
