After much deliberation, Wen Hao could only use a delaying strategy.

"We have only known each other for a few days. Isn't it a bit too casual to say goodbye? Why don't we talk about it later?"

Liu Laidi saw that Wen Hao was unwilling, so she didn't force it. She nodded and said nothing.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, Wen Hao lowered his head and cut the watermelon silently.

"My mother asked me to cut it into a bigger piece, but this piece is too small, so leave it to me."

Liu Laidi reminded her as she picked up the piece of watermelon that Wen Hao accidentally cut into small pieces and put it aside. Then she took a large square plate and put the watermelon piece by piece on the square plate.

After filling a plate, he took it out.

"Grandpa, eat watermelon."

"Uncle Wang, eat watermelon."

......

Mother taught them to respect the elderly and love the young. These habits were engraved in their bones. No matter what they did, they should put the oldest person first.

Wen Hao also put the remaining watermelon into the square plate. He exchanged the remaining piece for himself with Liu Laidi's, and then went out with the square plate to distribute watermelons to everyone with Liu Laidi.

"Hey, I forgot to ask just now, who is this little brother? Why is your hair yellow? Are you sick?"

Yang Dafu spoke neither lightly nor seriously, and the scene fell silent after he finished speaking.

He was originally very happy to eat the watermelon and wanted to make a joke to liven up the atmosphere. Unexpectedly, the joke didn't go well and he offended someone.

Fortunately, Liu Laidi came to the rescue in time and said, "Brother Yang, this is fashion, not an illness. When I get rich, I will dye it green too."

Everyone subconsciously imagined what Liu Laidi looked like with green hair, and they were all amused by her exaggerated expression and tone.

The atmosphere relaxed and everyone gathered under the shade to eat watermelon and chat as usual.

Yang Dafu quietly came to Wen Hao, holding a half-bitten watermelon in his hand, gave Wen Hao a hug with his arm, and said with an apologetic smile.

"Sorry little brother, I can't speak. Don't be like me."

Wen Hao curled up his lips and said, "It's okay."

He was in a low mood not because Yang Dafu said his hair was sick, but because in this courtyard where everyone had black hair, he did look like an outlier.

Even most people in the town couldn't accept his look, let alone the people in the village.

He must have left a bad impression on Liu Laidi and Liu Laidi's family.

Is it too late to change?

When Liu Laidi returned to the house to get the watermelon, she found that her watermelon seemed to have gotten bigger.

No way, could it be that she remembered it wrong?

There was only one watermelon on the table. After looking at it for a few times, she didn't think much about it. She picked up the watermelon and took a tentative bite.

This is her second time eating watermelon.

I ate it once before when I was a child. It was a wild watermelon found in the mountains. After struggling to carry it home, my mother and brother found it unpalatable and asked her to feed it to pigs.

She had never eaten watermelon before, so she couldn't help but take a bite.

The watermelon is not as delicious as the radish, and there are so many wild watermelon seeds that you can take a bite of them.

From then on, she thought watermelon was not delicious, so when her mother bought watermelon for Qibao, she was not envious at all and thought Qibao was stupid.

The flesh of the watermelon is red. Cut it in half and let Qibao dig it out with a spoon.

It wasn't until today that she realized that it wasn't that watermelon didn't taste good, it was that she had never eaten ripe watermelon.

Qibao is not stupid either. She is the stupid person, and she is also the pitiful and pathetic person.

In a rare moment of sadness, she sat on the kitchen stool and ate watermelon in small bites.

At this moment, a voice suddenly appeared behind her.

"What are you thinking about? Come on, let's have some watermelon."

Before she finished speaking, a piece of watermelon with a bite appeared in front of her.

Liu Laidi looked up, smiled inexplicably, and touched Wen Hao with her watermelon.

"Everyone is toasting, but we are drinking watermelon."

Wen Hao had never seen Liu Laidi looking depressed. When he saw a smile on the girl's face, he felt inexplicably comfortable.

"What's wrong, can't you?"

"Okay, I just want to be with you more."

"..."

Neither man spoke for the next few minutes.

Liu Laidi asked suddenly, looking guilty.

"Is it because of the tires that you don't want to work with me?"

"Of course not. That's not your fault. Didn't I tell you earlier? It has nothing to do with you."

"Oh."

That's because I simply don't want to be with her.

She seemed even sadder.

"I'm sorry about the tire. If it weren't for me, you might have gone back to town long ago, and the tire wouldn't have been punctured. If my mother didn't give you money to repair the tire, I will pay back the money when I make money in the future. you."

After Liu Laidi said that, she ran away and went to work with her sisters in the yard.

She looked very busy and wouldn't let anyone get close to her.

From then on, Liu Laidi never mentioned the matter to Wen Hao again.

Everyone was busy, and Wen Hao was embarrassed to do nothing.

He walked around and felt that it would be more suitable for him to chop wood and make a fire.

He had just been working for a while when Meng Suisui came.

"Wen Hao, the work in the farm yard is dirty. Your clothes are quite expensive. It will be bad if they get dirty and scratched. You can go inside and rest. There are people doing these jobs."

The car incident just now has caused a lot of trouble to Liu Laidi's family.

If the clothes get damaged again, I'm afraid it will make people feel guilty again.

He has good intentions for driving people, and he has good intentions for helping people with work, but it would be bad if his good intentions lead to bad things.

Looking down at the designer clothes on his body, he sighed secretly in his heart, got up and went to the house.

Meng Suisui and the others were polite and distant from him, and even Liu Laidi, who was most enthusiastic about him, seemed unwilling to talk to him anymore.

He was sitting in the room and could occasionally hear the lively voices outside.

He is out of tune with this lively compound.

He closed his eyes and said softly in his mind.

Grandma, shouldn't I be here?

When the employees were about to get off work, Meng Suisui asked her youngest daughter to find the village chief.

When the village chief saw Wen Hao's tire, he stamped his feet angrily and gritted his teeth.

"Who did this! How could there be such a wicked person in our village! Don't worry, I will help you broadcast the arrest when I get back soon. I don't believe that no one saw who did it in broad daylight!"

"Village Chief Wang, you're going to say this in the broadcast later, saying that if anyone provides clues, I will reward them with ten yuan. As of tomorrow morning, if no one takes the initiative to admit it, I will call the police."

"Call the police?"

Wang Haijiang suddenly felt a little worried. If the police were brought to the village, if the town knew about it, his ability to govern would be questioned.

But after all, it was a good car that suffered such a murder in Huanxi Village. As the village chief, he had the responsibility, and he was too embarrassed to advise Meng Suisui not to call the police.

At this time, a strange smile appeared on Meng Suisui's face and she said warmly.

"If you say this on the radio first, maybe the culprit will turn himself in before the police are called."

Wang Haijiang nodded sharply, "Okay, I'll go back to the broadcast. I want to see which bastard did it!"
