riverside……

At first Xu Qiu just walked quickly with the child in his arms, but unconsciously he walked faster and faster, and finally started to run directly.

……

Lin.

When Mrs. Zhao asked Lin Qiong to wash clothes by the river, Lin Qu happened to be at home.

He signaled his two younger brothers to act according to the plan, and he also went to pack a basin of clothes and prepare to go to the river to wash them.

This is the first time Lin Qiong asked him to wash clothes since he was a child, but he was not unwilling, so he agreed naturally: "Okay, Mom, if you and Dad have anything to wash, I will also take it together." Just bring it to me."

It's not that Lin Qiong never washed clothes in his previous life, this is not a difficult task for him.

What's more, no one asked him to do any work every day, and he had a lot of time.

Mrs. Zhao smiled, "My brother Qiong is still filial." She went into the house to look for two, after all, there are many people washing clothes by the river, so that people can see how filial her brother Qiong is.

Lin Qu set off first, and Lin Qiong and Zhao Shi left later. Zhao Shi followed because she was afraid that her son would not be able to wash. After all, if she didn't go, how could she guarantee that her son would fall into the water.

When Zhao Shi and Lin Qiong arrived at the river, Lin Qu had already squatted in one place and started washing clothes.

Lin Qiong didn't notice this, he found an empty seat and squatted down, and Mrs. Zhao was beside him giving him advice from time to time. There was nothing to say about the skills of washing clothes. After Mrs. Zhao finished speaking, she stood up and went to the back, for a long while She didn't speak, and Lin Qiong didn't pay attention, just thought she was leaving.

Standing behind Lin Qiong, Mrs. Zhao looked around, not paying attention to other people washing clothes by the river.

She stretched out her hand and pushed Lin Qiong out.

Lin Qiong only felt a strong push from behind, he screamed, his whole body fell sideways, only heard a plop, and fell into the river.

Suddenly, the riverside became lively.

"Overboard, someone overboard."

"Which of you can swim?"

Everyone ran over here at once, but before they got together, they saw Lin Qiong in the river, stretched out her hand, and pulled Lin Qu who was squatting by the side to wash clothes.

Everyone was surprised.

Lin Qiong didn't think too much about it, he could feel that he was pushed into the water, and while struggling, he saw Lin Qu squatting by the river, and in an instant, he came to his senses, In the whole family, the person who hates him the most is probably Lin Qu.

He didn't know what Lin Qu wanted to do, but this didn't prevent him from directly dragging Lin Qu into the water.

There is actually a little distance between Lin Qu and Lin Qiong's washing clothes, but when Mrs. Zhao couldn't stand the push, Lin Qiong fell obliquely in his direction, and when he was struggling, he moved, and he was there all at once. He came forward.He is still hesitating, the prince hasn't come yet, and this person is in front of his eyes, too close to the shore, and now there are so many people watching, if he doesn't pull people up, others will inevitably have some ideas.

If he let his grandma hear that he is desperate for help.

Then I'm afraid he won't be able to get away so easily. Even if this is a scheme by Mrs. Zhao and the others, in Mrs. Lin's view, it's his fault that he can't be saved.

But before he hesitated for too long, Lin Qiong dragged him into the water.

Now, there is no need to worry about it.

No matter what the people on the bank were thinking when they saw that scene, they were all chattering and anxious, but there was nothing they could do about it. Generally speaking, those who could wash clothes by the river were either women, Either it is brother, but under the conditions of the village, almost most of this gender can't swim.

After all, if you want to learn to swim, you will inevitably have to wear thinner clothes.

It's not good if someone sees it.

There will also be discussions in the village.

When Zhao and Lin Laosan were calculating, they also took this into consideration, otherwise, they would have to find a time when there was no one in the river, but in that case, there would be no witnesses, and it would be easy to be dismissed up.

A group of people hurriedly shouted loudly, wanting someone to hear and come to rescue them.

There are also those with quick hands and feet, who are already running towards the village.

Some people went to look for long sticks, trying to pull them up, but within a short while, they broke the tree with bare hands.

In the river, the more Lin Qu and Lin Qiong struggled, the more they drifted away from the shore.

Gu Chengxiao, who rushed over, also heard the cries of the villagers.

He was startled, and hastened to speed up his pace. When he got to the river, he saw that one of the two people who fell into the water was Lin Qiong.Gu Chengxiao and Lin Qiong had an ambiguous relationship with each other. Before Lin Qiong sprained her ankle, he was the one who carried Lin Qiong back.

When they met again, they had a good impression of each other.

Today, a child ran over suddenly and asked him to go to the river quickly, saying that Lin Qiong was looking for him, and he would regret it if he didn't go.

Although Lin Qiong didn't mention much about her family, Gu Chengxiao also knew that the Lin family had a brother who was about the same age as Lin Qiong, who was extremely jealous of Lin Qiong. I'm afraid it wasn't from Lin Qiong's original intention.

Judging from the few times he has been in contact with Lin Qiong, Lin Qiong is not such a person.

He didn't want to go, but he was also afraid that there was something wrong with Lin Qiong, so after thinking about it, he decided to take a look from a distance, but he heard such shouts from the villagers.In an instant, Gu Chengxiao didn't care much anymore, and directly speeded up, and under the exclamation of everyone, he jumped into the river.

Without even thinking about it, he swam directly to Lin Qiong's side.

Then he hugged Lin Qiong and led him to the shore.

Zhao Shi who was standing on the shore was stunned, where did this person appear!

Turning her head to look in the direction of Xu's house, she happened to see Xu Qiu running over in a hurry, and then turned back to look at the man who was holding her brother. Zhao couldn't feel happy at all, so she rushed forward and looked at the man. Gu Chengxiao kicked and beat: "Where did you come from, you bastard, who told you to touch my brother? Does my brother need you to save him? He has his own fiance!"

"Let me tell you, don't expect to save my brother, you will be able to eat swan meat and marry my brother, this is impossible! Don't even think about it, our Lin family is not someone who can be provoked casually .”

Mrs. Zhao showed no mercy at all, and scratched a few marks on Gu Chengxiao's face. Lin Qiong, who was still coughing, saw this scene, and her heart rose instantly, "Mother."

This is the future emperor.

His mother is so brave.

Hearing Lin Qiong's weak cry, Mrs. Zhao went over to look at him worriedly: "Brother Qiong, how are you, are you okay?"

Seeing Xu Qiu approaching, he hurriedly tried to stop him, "Xiaoqiu, come and see our brother Qiong, he fell into the water, his health is not good, what's wrong?"

Xu Qiu's eyes were only on the people in the river who were getting quieter and quieter. Lin Qiong heard the person his mother mentioned and looked sideways, just in time to see Xu Qiu falling into the water with a plop without any hesitation.

Xu Qiu quickly swam into the river and lifted Lin Qu out of the water. Fortunately, he came in time and Lin Qu did not fall into a coma.

They brought him to the shore, and the other women and brothers helped to pull Lin Qu and Xu Qiu up, both of them sat on the ground exhausted and panting.

Although the weather is hot, they are covered in wet clothes, and they still feel cold when they are blown by the wind a little.

It was not easy to take off the clothes on the villagers' bodies, so they simply took two clothes from the dirty laundry basin where Lin Qu had washed their clothes before, and put them on respectively.

Everyone surrounded them and cared about them. The woman who was entrusted by Xu Qiu before also called a large group of people over. When they saw this scene, they also surrounded them.At this time someone suddenly said: "Speaking of which, after Lin Qiong fell into the water before, it seems that he directly dragged Lin Qu into the water, the strength of his hands, the degree of cruelty, it doesn't seem like it was intentional, it doesn't seem like it .”

As soon as these words came out, the crowd fell silent for a moment.

When Lin Qiong just fell into the water, everyone's attention was attracted, everyone was looking at him, so when he pulled Lin Qu, several people could see clearly.

It was just because the person hadn't been rescued before, so no one mentioned this, but now, after both of them are safe, some people can't help it.

Mrs. Zhao cursed, "Mrs. Zhou, do you want to fight? What are you talking about?"

Mrs. Zhou is not easy to mess with, she herself is at odds with Mrs. Zhao, otherwise she wouldn't be the first to say this, "I'm not talking nonsense, and I'm not the only one who saw it, everyone has seen it."

At this time, Zhao's usual bad popularity, which is usually hated by others, was also reflected. When Mrs. Zhou said this, several people really opened their mouths.

He said that he had indeed seen it, and felt that Lin Qiong had dragged Lin Qu into the water on purpose.

Zhao's eyes were burning with anger. At this moment, a hand grabbed him, and Lin Qiong said, "I did pull Lin Qu, but it was also because the reason why I fell into the water was because I was taken from the water." There was a push in the back, and it was so hard, I couldn't feel wrong."

"Although I do have a lot of small problems, as long as others don't hurt me, I won't hurt others. But since they have already done something to me, so what if I pull him?"

Lin Qiong is not the kind of person who is timid and afraid to act for the sake of a good reputation.

He also knew in his heart that the original owner's reputation in the village was not good. It was the same whether he did it or not. If there were too many lice, it didn't itch, and he wasn't afraid.Besides, he never thought about marrying in a nearby village, so naturally he didn't care about it.

He also believes that the person he likes in the future will not have any thoughts about him because of these. If this is the case, this person is not worthy of his liking.

But after he finished speaking, he didn't get approval, and everyone looked at him strangely: "Lin Qu is so far away from you, why did he run behind you to push you? The one standing behind you, isn't it?" Only your mother alone?"

Everyone was not stupid, looked at Xu Qiu who was the first to run over, and vaguely understood something.

Could it be that Lin Qiong's mother pushed it by herself?

Lin Qiong: "..."

It feels a little ominous.

He looked up at his mother, and Mrs. Zhao yelled uncomfortably: "What do you mean by that? As a mother, I might push my own child into the water, but I just didn't stand firm for a while." .”

Lin Qiong was speechless. His mother could indeed do this.

He simply apologized to Lin Qu, and then said: "Since this is the case, I still want to ask, what is the meaning between my cousin and my fiancé-in-law? When you came here just now, there was nothing He hesitated and jumped into the river to save people."

"Shouldn't this be the attitude you should have towards your future husband's cousin?"

Although it made Lin Qiong a little embarrassed to admit the wrong person for a while, he was still very unhappy with Lin Qu and Xu Qiu, and had a very bad impression.

What's so good about a couple who hooked up with each other during their marriage contract? Lin Qiong felt that he could do anything with them.

It was a good time to say these things at this time, anyway, he wasn't going to really marry Xu Qiu, and it was a good thing to resolve this marriage contract as soon as possible.

Xu Qiu didn't like Lin Qiong's insincere apology, especially because Lin Qu was dragged into the water by Lin Qiong, which made his heart burn with anger. Hearing this, he sneered: "I and Lin Qu has nothing to say, but you, you can explain to everyone what happened between you and Gu Chengxiao."

He also heard it, it seems that Zhao and Lin Laosan did not tell Lin Qiong about their family's plan to divorce.

Otherwise, Lin Qiong would not be able to say such words.

But Lin Qiong dragged Lin Qu into the water, and was so aggressive, Xu Qiu didn't want to save face for him, so he asked directly.

Lin Qiong choked, "What can Gu Chengxiao and I have?"

He admitted that he had a crush on Gu Chengxiao, but that was only because there was a problem between Xu Qiuxian and Lin Qu, otherwise how could he have contact with Gu Chengxiao.And part of the reason why he came into contact with Gu Chengxiao was because, in the book he read, Xu Qiu was one of Gu Chengxiao's subordinates.

He couldn't understand Xu Qiu, so he naturally wanted to find someone better than Xu Qiu.

Of course, it was also because Gu Chengxiao was indeed the type he liked.

Lin Qu's lowered eyes were full of hatred, and he whispered, "My cousin's foot was crooked on the mountain before, and it seems that this is the one who carried it back."

Although the mountain is dangerous, it is still possible to go to the periphery.

Lin Qiong went to pick mushrooms with other people of the same age in the village before, but she got separated from them and sprained her ankle.

"And I saw Lin Qiong run to the place where the exiles lived, so that's what happened." As soon as Lin Qu said something, someone added.

Lin Qiong only passed by once or twice before, and sprained his ankle in the back. After Gu Chengxiao carried him back, he only went there a few times as a thank you.

There are not many, but he is not used to going out, and if he moves occasionally, the villagers can naturally see the movement.

I didn't know why before, but now I combine them, I don't know why.

"Obviously two people fell into the water. When the young man arrived just now, he went directly to Lin Qiong. After he was rescued, I didn't see him go to rescue Lin Qu again."

"Yeah, I know him just by looking at it."

Everyone was chattering, and Lin Qiong was even more depressed. He never thought that it was Xu Qiu and the others who did the wrong thing, but why did this matter fall on him in the end.

At this time, Gu Chengxiao looked at Xu Qiu sullenly and said, "Didn't you say that your previous engagement has been terminated?"

Lin Qiong looked over in surprise.

"That's right." Xu Qiu said with no expression: "During the period when the engagement was still in progress, there was no place where Lin Qu crossed paths with me, that is, before the Lin family got a younger brother to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days, my mother looked pitifully , let me go to deliver food, and only then did I have some contact."

Although Lin Qu liked him, but Xu Qiu really hadn't spoken to Lin Qu in the past so many years.

Talking about it in recent years, at first I met Lin Qukui by the river, and then I met him when he went up the mountain.Even if Lin Qu admired him in his heart, he couldn't just call him a hooker without even saying a few words.

"Before my mother stewed meat, she brought a bowl for Lin Qiong's parents. Unexpectedly, they heard behind their backs that I was short-lived. I didn't know how many years I could live. I'm married, his brother Qiong is a blessed person, wait and see if I can find a better one, and we will withdraw at that time."

"When my mother got angry, she wanted to withdraw from the marriage, but considering the matter of withdrawing from the marriage, it would be bad for my brother's reputation, so I asked Lin Qiong's parents to find a suitable reason to speak out, but I didn't expect that into what it is now."

When the big guys heard it, they started talking.

The third Lin and his wife really have a big appetite.

Mrs. Zhou, who didn't get along with Mrs. Zhao, even scolded directly: "You two are really big faces. The one who is a loser, Mrs. Li, is kind and doesn't care about you. It’s impossible to type them all out for you.”

"There are still blessed people? Isn't this Lin Qiong very blessed to suck the blood of the whole family."

The people at the side echoed: "Mr. Li treated her so well in the past. I didn't expect Mrs. Zhao to curse her like this behind her back."

"It's really better to feed the dogs than to feed their family. Three white-eyed wolves came out after raising them."

Everyone in the village knew how good the relationship between Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zhao was.

Someone else thought of it: "No wonder Mrs. Zhao refused to let Mrs. Lin check on Xu Qiu when the Lin family made trouble, and later wanted to slander Mrs. Li who pushed her into the latrine."

"It turns out that they fell out a long time ago."

"It seems that God has eyes, and he can't see this kind of person getting better."

……

Mrs. Zhao listened, and immediately went over to scuffle: "I'll let you talk nonsense, I'll let you talk nonsense!"

Everyone hurriedly pulled away, because Mrs. Zhao was kicked several times by Mrs. Zhou.

Some people took advantage of the chaos and grabbed her a few times, yelling at Zhao Shi in pain.

Seeing that the scene was barely under control, Xu Qiu looked at Lin Qiong and said, "I heard what I said before, your parents didn't tell you about the divorce, that is to say, when you think you have a fiancé-in-law , How did you come into contact with other members of the opposite sex?"

Saying this kind of words is extremely lethal.

Lin Qiong himself had a bad reputation, but that was just a trivial matter. Now that he is an unmarried little brother, it is a big deal to share this.

It's not that Xu Qiu didn't know about this, but he was really angry. Lin Qu himself was oppressed in the Lin family, and in the end he was dragged into the water. He just said sorry and disappeared.

What's more, it's really hard to say that this kind of thing has something to do with the innocence of the little brother, but Lin Qiong doesn't care about Lin Qu either.

Asked directly in front of the public.

Unlike Lin Qiong, he also bears the name of his cousin's ex-fiancée, if he doesn't handle it properly, it will do great harm to Lin Qu.

Lin Qiong was watched by everyone, and for a while, he realized that he didn't seem to care about reputation as much as he imagined. After a while, he said, "I... I just... just..."

I just went to find Gu Chengxiao.

He didn't know why it happened like this.

Xu Qiu interrupted him, "If I remember correctly, you used to come to my house to look for me, but it was more than three months ago when you suddenly became abnormal? At that time, Gu Chengxiao had just been exiled here, and I was with Lin Lin at that time. Qu hasn't spoken for several years, how did you misunderstand?"

No matter what, Xu Qiu didn't want any bad guesses to fall on Lin Qu.

Lin Qiong said it was a misunderstanding, but hearing that flies kept biting seamless eggs in other people's ears, it was hard not to suspect Lin Qu, thinking that something was really wrong with them in private.

And Xu Qiu wanted to cut off this doubt.
