Chapter 411 Du Dalun, who loves wine

The person speaking was Du Dalun, who had fallen into the muddy ditch.

Du Dalun heard Liu Zhaodi speaking. He didn't immediately call for help, fearing he might encounter someone with ill intentions. Instead, he whimpered a few times, trying to scare Liu Zhaodi away.

However, Liu Zhaodi's next sentence mentioned Hongqi Village.

Su Nuannuan comes from Hongqi Village, and with Su Nuannuan as a filter, Du Dalun has a natural trust in the people of Hongqi Village.

So he asked for help.

Following the sound, Liu Zhaodi saw a middle-aged man in a respectable Zhongshan suit, with a kind face and sharp eyes, lying in a small ditch.

The mud in the ditch was not even as high as a person's calf.

Du Dalun is lying inside and hasn't come out yet. He's really... really useless.

This was Liu Zhaodi's first impression of Du Dalun.

Du Dalun was unaware that he had been unjustly labeled as a 'good-for-nothing'.

Liu Zhaodi found a thick branch, extended it to Du Dalun, and said with a smile.

"Comrade, catch me, I'll pull you up."

Although Liu Zhaodi was a woman, she was quite strong. With a single pull, she lifted Du Dalun up.

The ditch had little silt, so there was almost no resistance. Liu Zhaodi pulled Du Dalun out without much effort.

However, Du Dalun's pants were still covered in mud.

He had never suffered like this before, and his face scrunched up in pain.

Since leaving the Liu family, Liu Zhaodi's previously timid and withdrawn personality has transformed into one of resilience and self-reliance.

Seeing Du Dalun's expression, I frowned and said directly.

"I can't stand it just because my pants have a little mud on them."

Are you even a man?

Liu Zhaodi didn't say the last sentence.

However, even the first sentence made Du Dalun somewhat angry.

"It's not just a little bit, the whole pair of pants is covered in mud!"

For some reason, Du Dalun felt somewhat sullen when he saw Liu Zhaodi's disdain for him.

Liu Zhaodi pursed her lips and muttered under her breath.

"City people are so particular."

Du Dalun didn't hear clearly, but he felt that Liu Zhaodi definitely hadn't said anything nice, so he asked her in return.

"What do you say?"

Liu Zhaodi had no time to gossip with Du Dalun; she was in a hurry to get to work.

So she waved her hand and said.

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I need to go to the clinic."

After saying that, Liu Zhaodi turned to leave.

Du Dalun knew that the other party had urgent business and that he shouldn't delay them.

However, he wasn't a heartless person. Liu Zhaodi had helped her, and he naturally wanted to repay her.

Fortunately, when I fell off the bicycle, the gifts on it didn't fall into the mud.

He took out a bag of oranges, handed it to Liu Zhaodi, and said...

"Here you go. Thank you for pulling me out of the mud today."

After being pulled out, Du Dalun realized that the ditch was not deep and he could walk out once he stood up.

So, Du Dalun blushed a little when he said that.

Liu Zhaodi waved her hand, refusing.

"It's just something I did, no big deal."

After saying that, she left without looking back.

Du Dalun paused for a moment, looked at Liu Zhaodi's tall and straight back, and smiled.

Judging from Liu Zhaodi's clothes and appearance, you can tell that her family's living conditions are not good.

Du Dalun offered her every advantage, but she never took advantage of it. This made Du Dalun feel differently about Liu Zhaodi.

After Liu Zhaodi left, Du Dalun quickly tidied his clothes and pushed his bicycle towards Hongqi Village. He'd come all this way; there was no reason to give up halfway.

Although Du Dalun had his grandfather's protection in the past, he still had some cleverness.

He visited Su Jianjun and Chen Xiuting covered in mud, hoping it might evoke their sympathy.

It has to be said, Du Dalun is right.

When Su Jianjun and Chen Xiuting heard that Du Dalun had come to their home to thank Su Nuannuan, they tripped and fell into a ditch on their way.

The couple became even more warm and attentive to Du Dalun, and even invited him to stay for dinner.

Du Dalun's excuse for coming to find Su Jianjun and his wife was half true and half false.

The gratitude was genuine, but it was expressed indirectly by giving gifts to the elderly couple to express thanks to Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou.

When Su Jianjun saw that Du Dalun's clothes were covered in mud, he took out the new clothes that Su Nuannuan had bought for him and lent them to Du Dalun.

Although Du Dalun was a little embarrassed, he couldn't stand the dirty clothes on his body.

In the end, I accepted it.

After changing his clothes, Du Dalun diligently helped Su Jianjun and Chen Xiuting chop firewood and start a fire.

Those who didn't know better would have thought the Su family had a son-in-law.

Seeing how diligent Du Dalun was, Su Jianjun and Chen Xiuting couldn't sit still any longer.

Judging from the clothes Du Dalun took off, you could tell that this man was definitely not ordinary; he couldn't possibly be doing manual labor in the countryside.

So he quickly pulled Du Dalun into the main room and said.

"Comrade Du, don't bother. You're a guest, how about having a couple of drinks with me?"

Since Su Jianjun had already extended an invitation, how could Du Dalun possibly refuse?

Moreover, Su Jianjun is only two or three years older than Du Dalun, so the two still have a lot to talk about.

The wine Su Jianjun took out was brewed by Su Nuannuan. Smelling the rich aroma, Du Dalun looked at the wine in Su Jianjun's hand with some disbelief.

The Du family was once wealthy; Du Dalun had eaten Western food and drunk red wine a few years ago.

Moreover, he has developed a great fondness for wine since he got older. He even had someone buy him a lot.

However, none of the wines he had tasted smelled as mellow as the one in Su Jianjun's hand.

Du Dalun's eyes twitched as he looked at the ordinary glass bottle containing the purplish-red liquid.

Du Dalun strongly suspects that Su Jianjun packaged the expensive wines sent by Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou in ordinary glass bottles.

It wasn't just Du Dalun's wild guess; given Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou's abilities, both of them could probably get their hands on this thing.

He never imagined that the wine was brewed by Su Nuannuan herself.

In order not to waste the good wine, Du Dalun tentatively spoke up.

"Uncle Su, did Dr. Su and Comrade Chu send this wine?"

Su Jianjun's face lit up with pride when he mentioned Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou.

"No."

Now, Du Dalun was even more certain of his guess.

He watched as Su Jianjun nonchalantly poured the wine from the glass bottle into a bowl, his brow furrowing deeply.

"Uncle Su, this is a fine wine, how can it be stored directly in this glass bottle?"

Du Dalun's eyes hurt, and he couldn't help but remind him.

Upon hearing this, Su Jianjun was first taken aback, and then burst into laughter.

"This wine isn't anything special; it was brewed by my daughter herself."

Du Dalun: !!!

After Su Jianjun finished speaking, he led Du Dalun to a cabinet in the inner room, where the cabinet was full of wine in cheap glass bottles.

After reading it, Du Dalun was somewhat questioning his life.

After learning that Du Dalun liked wine, Su Jianjun gave him two bottles when he left.

This gift touched Du Dalun's heart deeply.

He found Su Jianjun to be to his liking, and from that day on, he often came to Hongqi Village to have a drink with Su Jianjun.

This is how Du Dalun and Liu Zhaodi's relationship began.
