Chapter Thirty-six: Ye Cai-ping's Phone Call
Ye Cai Ping was annoyed, she had already given him her number, but he hadn't called yet, making her wait for half a day, it's clear how angry she is now. After dinner, holding the phone and hesitating for a long time, she finally gritted her teeth and dialed Chu Jia Qiang's number.
At this time, Chu Jiaqiang had just finished eating. In the past half month, he felt that he could eat more and more. On one hand, the rural farmhouse dishes were very suitable for his taste; on the other hand, it might have something to do with exercise. After all, those high-difficulty movements every day were not easy at all.
Chu Jiaqiang's phone was thrown on the bench, and he had been using it to read news before dinner. When he wasn't using it, Chu Jiayun would often borrow it. Hearing the phone ring, Chu Jiayun glanced at it: Ping'er!
"Brother! Who's Ping'er? Oh, I know, it's sister-in-law." Chu Jia Wan immediately picked up: "Hello! Is that sister-in-law? My brother just finished eating, should he listen in? Wait a bit!"
Chu Jiaqiang was drinking a bowl of bone soup, he was used to eating his fill before drinking the soup, unlike Chu Jiayu, who poured the soup into her rice and mixed it together to eat. When he heard that servant girl's words, he almost spat out a mouthful of soup.
As he saw Chu Jia Yan handing over the phone, he glared at her fiercely and reluctantly answered it. He had already prepared himself for a scolding from the other end, as Ye Cai Ping would definitely think this was his idea, and he really couldn't explain himself clearly.
However, it was later settled down. If anyone is to blame, it's Ye Caiping's fault. What title couldn't she use? "Caiping" such an ambiguous title, can people not misunderstand? At first, he didn't notice, if she hadn't called him over the phone, he probably wouldn't have known for a while.
It's actually the opposite, Ye Cai Ping is feeling delighted in her heart. At first, she heard a female voice and frowned, but after hearing more, she found out it was Chu Jia Qiang's sister, and her heart immediately felt at ease. That one term of endearment "sister-in-law" really touched her heart. Just as she was about to chat with this girl who shared similar tastes and pull her into her own camp, the other party had already handed the phone over to Chu Jia Qiang, so she could only temporarily give up!
Seeing Lao Ge staring at her, Chu Jia Yan stuck out her tongue and made a ghostly face before dodging to the side.
Er Biao also perked up her ears, women are naturally born gossipy, and would definitely not miss the opportunity to eavesdrop. Coincidentally, Chu Jiaqiang's phone was a counterfeit product, with a loud voice that could be heard from several meters away, even if it wasn't on speakerphone.
"Robber, why didn't you call me today? Give me a reasonable explanation! Otherwise, you know what will happen." "Robber" was the nickname for Chu Jiaqiang in middle school and high school. Back then, his grades never fell out of the top ten in the whole school, and he had won many awards, so people called him "Robber". There wasn't actually a robber, but with more and more people calling him that, it just became his nickname.
"Cough, cough! You wait a minute." Chu Jiaqiang pushed Chu Jiawen's head away. This girl was too much, with one ear stuck to the other side of the phone. Chu Jiaqiang quickly ran out of the house and saw that Chu Jiawen still didn't give up, chasing after him. Chu Jiaqiang glared at her angrily, warning her not to be too reckless.
Chu Jia Yan had no choice but to sulkily return, not because she was afraid of her brother's glare, but because she saw her mother also glaring at her, the warning meaning was very strong, and she didn't dare to be too presumptuous.
"What's going on?" Ye Caiping said unclearly, complaining a sentence.
"Campus Belle, please! Keep your voice down. You know my phone is like a loudspeaker, and you're shouting so loudly, do you want the whole world to know we're acting?"
Ye Cai Ping listened and immediately burst out laughing. Upon hearing Chu Jia Qiang's sneaky and intentionally soft-spoken words, she knew this guy was being defensive.
"Hey! Stop smiling, what's up, hurry up and say it, don't waste time." Chu Jiaqiang urged.
This remark made Ye Cai Ping unhappy, and for a moment she was so angry that she didn't know what to say. In her heart, she thought: You're still talking? Do you think I wanted to call you? It's all because of your wooden head, treating me like I'm transparent, not taking it seriously at all.
"Are you free these two days? Let's go out and have some fun, I'll take you to the city to walk around, it's not good to just stay in town, we can walk around a few times in an hour." Ye Cai Ping is preparing to go out to work in a week, thinking that she should spend more time with Chu Jia Qiang these days to increase his affection for her.
She originally thought that this might be unnecessary, relying on her own charm, Chu Jiaqiang would definitely not escape, giving him the opportunity to get close, he would definitely seize the opportunity. Who knew she waited foolishly for half a day, but that person was eating and drinking happily, as if forgetting the existence of this beauty. This made her feel anxious, and had no choice but to implement that plan.
"What's up? I might not have time for the next few days. Tomorrow, I need to go out and check on the fish seedlings in Chengwan Town. I won't be going downtown, I just went there recently." Chujiaqiang is really something! He wants to drag me into being a laborer, how ridiculous!"
He deeply understands the madness of women shopping. In the past with Cai Zhi Xuan, they agreed to be frugal, but as soon as Cai Zhi Xuan went out on the street, she would forget everything. What's most maddening is that for a difference of one or two dollars, they can haggle for half a day.
"Chengwan Town? Alright! I'll go too, it's boring at home, might as well take a walk. You wait for me tomorrow, if you dare to stand me up, you'd better watch out." Ye Caiping couldn't drag Chu Jiaqiang along, so she had no choice but to follow him.
"Uh, no need for that, right? If you're bored, you can go chat with your old classmates!" To be honest, Chu Jiaqiang really didn't want to bring Ye Caiping along, mainly because he planned to buy some fish fry and put them in the Shanhe Map later, and didn't want anyone to notice.
Ye Cai Ping was really angry, she had put aside her pride as a beautiful woman to chase after him, but he still wasn't pleased. For a moment, her anger flared up and she became unreasonable: "I don't care, if you're not waiting for me tomorrow, then our relationship will drag on like this, see how you'll get married."
Chu Jiaqiang was suddenly choked, and after a while he said: "You're ruthless, okay! I'll call you again when I get to town. Hang up for now, I have guests coming." Chu Jiaqiang immediately hung up the phone, and saw that his second uncle had returned, followed by the old village chief.
Ye Cai Ping heard the buzzing sound and suddenly got angry, throwing her iPhone onto the bed.
"Hang up on me! Hang up on me! You'll know your mistake tomorrow!" Ye Cai Ping said fiercely.
"Village headmaster, you're still coming over so late? What's the matter?" Chu Jiaqiang went to greet him.
The old village chief sighed with a bitter smile: "It's you again, kid. You're actually planning to build a bridge over the reservoir, which costs over a million. You've got guts, I'll give you that! Let's go inside and talk!"
Chu's family was strong, with horses leading the way in front. Second Aunt saw the old village chief coming over and immediately asked: "Uncle, have you eaten yet? If not, eat some! The dishes are still hot! We just finished eating too."
The old village chief waved his hand, and Second Aunt saw this, so she quickly cleaned up the table, then brewed a pot of tea and poured everyone a cup.
"Do you want to improve the environment over at the reservoir in order to attract tourists?" The old village chief asked straightforwardly.
"With this idea, when the time comes, there will definitely be people willing to come, it's just a matter of how many. Even if I can't attract them, I still have other uses. Convenient for myself, also convenient for everyone..." Chu Jiaqiang immediately analyzed it for everyone.
Several people chatted for more than an hour before the old village chief left. As for Chu Jiaqiang's wild and fanciful ideas, he also had some misunderstandings, but still tried his best to support Chu Jiaqiang.
