Splendid peasant girl busy farming

"Oh, so that's how it is. Bingbing is not bad. He is worthy of being a soldier. He is still very loyal at the critical moment." Yang Ruoqing praised Bingbing casually, then lowered her head to help Luo Baobao tidy up her hair.

However, when Luo Baobao heard Yang Ruoqing's praise for Bingbing, he seemed to remember something. The smile on his face gradually faded. He sat there with a slightly gloomy look on his face.

Zhang Youfu's family was trapped, not because they didn't listen to advice and didn't move in time, but because Zhang Youfu was not at home during those two days. He went to his mother's family to help his uncle with farm work, so he was late to go home...

By the time he got the news and rushed back home, his mother, wife, and two sons were already trapped.

When Luo Baobao and the others went to rescue, what can I say? You say Bingbing did not participate in the rescue, but that is not fair. It was a very cold day, and he was standing in waist-deep water wearing a cotton coat and trousers, shivering with cold, and helped to move people and belongings one by one.

However, he seemed to be selective and evasive when it came to rescue.

For example, take the paralyzed old lady Zhang. Zhang Youfu was busy with other things at the time and had no hands to carry the old lady, but Bingbing could definitely go.

But Bingbing didn't.

What he told Luo Baobao was that he was afraid that he would be too heavy-handed and might hurt the frail and old lady.

So when Luo Baobao carried the old lady out, he didn't even stand by to lend a hand.

Luo Baobao had a feeling that he was disgusted.

He disliked these paralyzed old ladies. He felt that they had untreated feces and urine on their bodies, and he was afraid of dirtying his hands.

How can a soldier who has fought in battles and survived through mountains of blood and corpses have mysophobia? How can he be afraid of getting his hands dirty even for such a small thing?

This is a bit hard to explain, and Luo Baobao can't understand it.

Especially when Jin Ling came later, he took Mrs. Zhang from her without hesitation.

Compared to Bingbing's constant concern and empty words like "Be careful" and "Slow down", Jinling had no unnecessary words, only practical actions.

Although Jinling and I are siblings, not that kind of relationship, Jinling is still a teenager.

However, people are used for comparison. Compared with Jinling, Bingbing seems very fake and empty.

"My girl, my hair is done, take a look for yourself."

Yang Ruoqing's voice brought Luo Baobao back to her senses. She raised her head and looked at herself in the bronze mirror, feeling very satisfied.

"My mother's craftsmanship is still the best. I like the braids she makes! Thank you, mother!"

She turned sideways, hugged Yang Ruoqing's waist, and rubbed her face in Yang Ruoqing's arms.

Yang Ruoqing touched her back, "Silly girl."

Wang Cuilian's voice came from outside the house: "Bao, are you done? The food is ready."

Luo Baobao let go of Yang Ruoqing and looked at the sky outside, a little confused: "Mom, are we having lunch or dinner?"

Yang Ruoqing herself was also confused. She had been busy since she woke up early this morning. Until now, she couldn't even remember whether she had eaten breakfast, let alone lunch or dinner.

"Whatever. If you're hungry, go eat. Let's go."

The food was placed in the dining hall in the backyard. Everyone was hungry. As soon as they entered the dining hall, Luo the blacksmith and Yang Huazhong were there. Wang Cuilian and Rong Gu were arranging the dishes and getting the bowls and chopsticks. Bingbing was going in and out from the dining hall to the kitchen next door, helping to get the food.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing and Luo Baobao coming together, Bingbing stopped, saluted respectfully to Yang Ruoqing, called her "Aunt Qing'er", and then his caring eyes fell on Luo Baobao.

"Baby, go sit down. I'll get you some food."

Luo Baobao said to Bingbing: "This is my home, you are a guest, you don't know how the dishes and chopsticks are placed in my home, so you should sit down as a guest." "I'm not tired, I'm helping Grandma Cuilian get the dishes and chopsticks, I'm really not tired at all..."

Speaking of this, Wang Cuilian also laughed dryly and said, "Bingbing is really too polite. He is also very hardworking and can't rest!"

Bingbing smiled modestly and said, "This is what the younger generation should do."

Luo Baobao was impatient to hear this, and pointed at one of the stools with a frown: "Please sit down, don't run back and forth between the kitchen and the dining hall, it makes me dizzy and uncomfortable!"

  what?

Bingbing was stunned for a moment, then blushed and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll sit down."

When the other people at the table saw this, they all looked away in embarrassment and started to make small talk and trouble.

Yang Ruoqing's eyes turned slightly, and she immediately understood how her daughter felt.

If it were me, I wouldn't be able to stand Bingbing's behavior. He was too deliberate and flattering, completely different from the unruly person who came to propose marriage before.

This kind of people are arrogant and self-righteous before, thinking they are sure to win, and they will only face up to the rejection when they are rejected.

But his behavior after facing it seemed very fake. Compared with the false courtesy and servility at this moment, Yang Ruoqing still appreciated the open and aboveboard arrogance more.

Bingbing sat down, and Luo Baobao shifted her gaze away from him. She looked towards the yard behind her, looking worried.

"What's wrong, baby? What are you worried about?" asked Blacksmith Luo.

Luo Baobao said, "I don't know where Jinling is now. I want to find him. His clothes are already soaked."

Yang Ruoqing came over and said, "Eat your meal first, and then we'll go out by boat to find Jinling. I'll also go to Zhengjia Village Reservoir to look for your father."

Compared to anyone else, Luo Fengtang is actually the one who works the hardest and suffers the most.

He has been busy outside since he got up today and has no chance to go home.

The clothes on her body... Yang Ruoqing didn't even dare to think about it. She would become so worried when she thought about it.

"Okay, let's eat quickly!"

Luo Baobao sat down, took the bowl and chopsticks full of rice handed to him by Aunt Rong, did not forget to say thank you to Aunt Rong, and then buried his head in eating.

The same is true for Yang Ruoqing.

The rest of the Luo family understood, except for Luo the blacksmith who greeted Bingbing and said, "You're welcome. Eat your fill."

Then the only sound left in the cafeteria was the sound of eating.

Soon, Baby Luo finished eating, wiped his mouth, stood up and was about to go out.

Yang Ruoqing also put down her bowl and chopsticks. She took the insulated food box that Rong Gu had prepared in advance and the mother and daughter prepared to go out.

Bingbing got up and ran to the door: "Aunt Qing'er, baby, I'll go with you!"

Yang Ruoqing was about to say no, but Luo Baobao said, "You can come along. My mother and I will take you to the pasture to reunite with your father and the others."

Yang Ruoqing thought this was totally feasible, and sent Bingbing away. When the water situation became bad, Yang Ruoqing sent a transport team to Huguang County to ask Zuo Junmo for help.

Zuo Jinling and the transport team came here with ten small boats. Seven or eight of them were led by Zuo Jinling to the village for rescue. There were two empty boats at the entrance of the Luo family. These two boats were specially left by Zuo Jinling for the Luo family to travel. (End of this chapter)
