In the empty room, You Xuzhi was holding a bowl against the door, listening to the movement outside while eating. The house is not soundproof, so he could easily hear the sound outside.

"Brother Zhang, I really troubled you this morning. I'm really sorry to involve you in this. This is a little bit of my heart. Please accept it, Brother Zhang."

"No need."

"You must accept it, otherwise my conscience will be disturbed. If it weren't for me, brother Zhang would not have almost gotten into trouble, and I don't know if he will embarrass you in the future, alas..."

Zhang Zuidong moved his mouth and said, "I don't need this thing, you can take it back."

It's already in trouble, and he still has hot money in his arms at the moment.

"Brother Zhang dislikes it?" Pu Pingle's voice was so fragile that he seemed to cry at any time, "These... are all my things and have nothing to do with him."

Zhang Zuidong sighed: "You don't have to be so polite, I just do it easily, I never wear jade pendants on weekdays, you should take them back."

"I……"

"Besides, Young Master You asked you today about the jade ornament he gave you. If you don't want to cause trouble, you should return it to him." He spoke sincerely.

Pu Pingle's face outside the house was stiff, he looked at Zhang Zuidong's face, and he didn't speak for a long time, Zhang Zuidong waited for a while, seeing him not moving, said: "Is there anything else?"

"Is Brother Zhang eating?" Pu Pingle asked, "It smells good."

At this time, ordinary people should politely ask if he has eaten, or if he wants to have a bite together. After all, there is a distance to walk up from the foot of the mountain, but Zhang Zuidong is a piece of elm.

"Yeah." He replied.

The two looked at each other, Pu Pingle looked at him secretly, Zhang Zuidong seemed blind to see him, seeing him looking at him hesitantly, he said: "If you have something else, just say it."

Pu Pingle: "..."

You Xuzhi in the room couldn't help laughing lowly, choked on the food in his mouth, wanted to cough but held back, his face flushed red.

"What sound?" Pu Pingle looked inside.

Zhang Zuidong's face was calm, as motionless as a mountain, and he replied: "Maybe something fell down."

He looked straight at the young man who was a head shorter than him. Although he hid it well, he still revealed some impatience in wanting to eat.

Pu Ping was happy to see that he really didn't intend to invite himself in to sit down and drink some water, like a defeated rooster, he returned disappointed, "I won't bother Brother Zhang for dinner."

"Hurry up and go down the mountain." Zhang Zuidong said, "It will be dark later, and the road will not be clear. There are many snakes and insects in the mountains, which is very dangerous."

When Pu Pingle heard the snake, he suddenly stopped thinking, said goodbye and left, Zhang Zuidong closed the door again, and knocked on the door where You Xuzhi hid.

He didn't quite understand why You Xuzhi wanted to hide, but he didn't want to ask now.

You Xuzhi's face flushed red, he held the bowl and opened the door, like an adulterer who is having an affair with someone.

"he's gone?"

"gone."

After receiving an affirmative answer, You Xuzhi tilted his head and coughed a few times, and the result became more and more serious. Zhang Zuidong gave him a drink of water, and he recovered.

"Thank you."

Zhang Zuidong took out the ingot of silver and handed it to You Xuzhi.

"What do you mean?" You Xuzhi raised his eyes and glanced at him lazily.

Zhang Zuidong: "You will not be rewarded without merit."

"You didn't tell him that I'm here, it's a credit." You Xuzhi walked around him with a bowl, and walked towards the dining table in the hall, showing dishonesty in his walk.

Zhang Zuidong said: "Even if you don't give me money, I won't tell him."

"I get it, I get it, Brother Zhang treats money like dung." You Xuzhi waved his hands and said perfunctorily, "But I will never take this thing back when I send it out, so you want to slap me?"

Zhang Zuidong: "Today you are still asking for jade ornaments with Brother Pu."

You Xuzhi: "..."

He really didn't expect this person to be so serious, yes, this time he really slapped him in the face, just now he was watching a play and making fun of others, but he didn't expect it to be his turn so soon.

"If you don't want it, then you don't want it." You Xuzhi turned around and snapped back the money, hitting Zhang Zuidong's palm. Zhang Zuidong's skin was rough and fleshy, but he didn't feel anything, just seeing the young master blushing with anger, for no apparent reason.

Who would like to give money to others, don't want him to be angry.

He didn't know that You Xuzhi was thinking the same thing.

No one would give him money and take it back. He insisted on forcing it back. He has a hard head and a stubborn heart. It is true that he is an honest man.

-

The next day, Zhang Zui woke up before dawn in winter. He left food for You Xuzhi in the kitchen, and went up the mountain. He piled the firewood that he hadn't carried on the mountain yesterday in the firewood pile, and Chenshi went to the field to plant rice seedlings.

Youjia rented out fields to the villagers, and now it's time to transplant rice seedlings.

At noon, no one brought food to Zhang Zuidong, so he had to go back to eat. When he got home, he didn’t see You Xuzhi, and the food left in the kitchen was not touched, only one boiled egg was missing. He didn’t care, so he ate After a break, I went to the field again.

Zhang Zuidong ate earlier than others, he came back to farm, and the family in the next field had just eaten the meal brought by his mother-in-law.

……

The grass was deep on the path, and You Xuzhi brushed aside the weeds with a folding fan. He also held a bamboo basket in his hand, which was covered with a lid, so that he could not see the contents inside.

He had already changed into an outfit and put back on his satin robe, which was cool and breathable. He went back to town today and took everything he needed.

You Xuzhi walked leisurely along the path, and saw many people bending over to plant rice seedlings in the field, he walked unhurriedly, and seeing a figure from a distance, he quickened his pace.

"Young Master, why are you here?" A big man greeted him as he sat down to eat by the field.

"Come and see." You Xuzhi was in a good mood, opened the basket, and handed a piece of watermelon to the man, "Come on, uncle, eat watermelon to cool off."

"Oh, thank you, Young Master You."

"You're welcome." You Xuzhi's broken sleeves are well known to everyone, but because of his generosity, few people shy away from him.

The sun made people sweat profusely. You Xuzhi fanned the fan, put the basket aside, and took a piece of watermelon out to eat. He walked along the field road to Zhang Zuidong.

Zhang Zuidong was wearing a bamboo hat, his sleeves and trouser legs were rolled up, he was not shirtless like other men, he looked strangely hot.

As he approached, You Xuzhi paused.

Zhang Zuidong turned his back to him, bent over to plant rice seedlings, his body was different from the others, with a belt around his waist, and his thin body at first glance, he felt that his buttocks were very sticky.

You Xuzhi ate a mouthful of watermelon, it was refreshing and sweet.

The other party seemed to be very keen on sight. After watching for a few breaths, Zhang Zuidong turned his head. You Xuzhi made a "tsk", walked around to the front, squatted by the field, spit watermelon seeds into the field, and called out: "Zhang Zuidong Brother, are you hot?"

The small figure eating watermelon with a folding fan looks awkward for no reason, and the gauze wrapped around his forehead is a bit funny.
