The kang (heated brick bed) for left-behind women

Lin Dachun also climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed).

The warm, smoky aroma wafted over, making my body feel very comfortable.

"I was definitely freezing to death last night. This kang is so warm. No wonder you like lying here. You're addicted to kangs. Hehe." Lin Dachun said, lying on his side facing Li Ruoxue, who was also lying on her side.

"Let's postpone the water cellar project for a couple of days, I'm exhausted," Li Ruoxue said.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you. Go to sleep and catch up on your sleep," Lin Dachun said.

The two of them were trapped last night and didn't sleep a wink; it was too cold.

soon.

Li Ruoxue drifted off to sleep.

Lin Dachun looked closely at the beautiful Li Ruoxue in front of him and felt a pang of heartache.

"Five hundred yuan, no matter what, I must raise it by the end of the year and keep Ruoxue here," Lin Dachun thought to himself.

They slept until the afternoon after catching up on their sleep.

Lin Dachun and Li Ruoxue slowly woke up.

When Lin Dachun woke up, he found Li Ruoxue almost right next to him.

"Did you sleep well?" Lin Dachun asked.

"Mm." Li Ruoxue nodded.

"That's good. I'll get up and go work on the mountain. You stay here and rest on the kang (heated brick bed)," Lin Dachun suggested.

"Still lying on the kang? You'll be lying there tonight too?" Li Ruoxue said, blushing.

"What's the big deal? You're prone to feeling cold," Lin Dachun said, getting up first.

Now that spring has arrived, the crops and vegetables on the mountain have just been planted and still need to be carefully tended.

Fortunately, Lin Dachun is diligent and pragmatic.

After Lin Dachun left, He Xiulan came over again.

"Ruoxue, you're awake?" He Xiulan brought over some more things. "Where's Dachun?"

"He went up the mountain to work." Li Ruoxue was still on the kang (a heated brick bed).

Lin Dachun didn't close the door when he left.

He Xiulan put her things down and was stunned when she saw Li Ruoxue's clothes.

"You, your underwear??"

He Xiulan hurriedly went over and sat down on the kang (a heated brick bed), carefully examining the underwear Li Ruoxue was wearing.

Li Ruoxue looked down at herself and immediately blushed, feeling extremely embarrassed.

"Da Chun just bought it for me. Isn't it beautiful?" Li Ruoxue asked.

"This is so sexy! Do you dress like this when you sleep or at home? Do you dress like this in front of Da Chun?" He Xiulan asked excitedly.

Li Ruoxue blushed even more and lowered her head shyly.

"I understand, I understand, it's unavoidable, isn't it? Your aunt understands you." He Xiulan carefully examined Li Ruoxue.

Li Ruoxue wore a black lace-trimmed bra, which looked very delicate and elegant, exuding a noble and graceful black style.

This style is somewhat provocative, yet beautiful and elegant.

"Where did you buy this?" He Xiulan asked.

"I heard that the women's underwear shop in the town's supply and marketing cooperative has imported styles that have just been introduced. I usually don't dare to wear them; I only wear them at home because I'm afraid people will think I'm indecent," Li Ruoxue said, blushing and acting very girlish.

"Look at what they're saying, they're so mean. It's not like they're wearing it for their men, it's for Da Chun. Honestly. I'll go buy one sometime too," He Xiulan comforted her.

"Um."

Li Ruoxue nodded emphatically.

Lin Dachun, who was busy on the mountain, took care of the seedlings that had been eaten by the sheep of the Sun family's daughter-in-law and loosened the soil.

At this time.

A group of people passed by at the bottom of the hillside, and Lin Dachun recognized them at a glance.

It was Scarface and his gang who had robbed him on their way back from hunting.

The group had already walked past, but then they saw Lin Dachun coming over again.

Lin Dachun had a bad feeling and gripped his hoe tightly, ready to fight at any moment.

"Brother, we meet again. What's your name again? Da Chun? Right?" Scarface asked.

"right."

Are you from this village?

"right."

"Did you plant these sea buckthorns?"

"right."

Lin Dachun answered very decisively.

"Don't even think about taking my sea buckthorn," Lin Dachun warned.

"What would I do with these things? They're worthless and useless." Scarface said, leaning forward and offering Lin Dachun a cigarette.

These days, cigarettes are a rare commodity.

Lin Dachun accepted it.

Scarface even lit Lin Dachun's lamp with a match.

"Is something the matter?" Lin Dachun asked.

"I see you're pretty good, strong and tough, and you're a good fighter. How about joining me?" Scarface said, smoking a cigarette, his left leg slightly bent and trembling, looking nonchalant.

"Brother, are you kidding me? I'm just a farmer, at this age, with family responsibilities, what am I still doing? Don't I need to farm anymore? Don't I need to grow crops?" Lin Dachun joked awkwardly.

"Okay, I'll put it this way."

The scarred guy didn't mince words and continued, "I'm planning to open a shop in town. A hair salon. Of course, the haircuts are just a pretense; the main job is taking red-light traffic jobs. This stuff makes money really fast these days."

"Hehe, it's fast, but aren't you afraid of going to jail?" Lin Dachun said again.

"Don't worry, nobody cares about this right now. Even if someone did, you can smooth things over by cultivating a good relationship with the town leaders and giving them some money," Scarface explained.

Lin Dachun took a deep drag of his cigarette. The smoke was strong, much better to inhale than welding fumes.

It has a unique smoky flavor.

"I would never force someone into prostitution."

Scarface immediately pointed at Lin Dachun and warned, "Don't jump to conclusions about this."

"Anyway, I definitely won't do this kind of work. You guys should find someone else." Lin Dachun clearly disagreed with their attempt to recruit him into this shady business.

"I'm not looking for you to force women into prostitution, I'm looking for a fighter." Scarface paused, then continued, "The local gangs are fighting tooth and nail for territory. Whoever controls the territory gets to run the shady businesses, understand? My team needs someone like you who's tough in a fight. When we need a fight, I'll call you. You won't come for nothing; I'll pay you. Think it over?"

"fight?"

Lin Dachun did not immediately refuse these words.

"Don't waste those muscles of yours." After saying that, Scarface tossed Lin Dachun another cigarette before leaving with his gang.
