Chapter 38: Falling Into the Water

Bark bark bark bark!

A dog suddenly barked. A yellow dog darted out and charged fiercely at Widow Guo.

Perhaps because Wei Luan’s attitude towards Widow Guo was very bad, the yellow dog also regarded Widow Guo as an enemy and bared its fierce fangs at her.

Widow Guo saw the vicious dog rushing towards her and was so frightened that she could not move. When she snapped out of her shock, she took two steps back hastily.

Plop!

Widow Guo fell into the river!

Widow Guo caused a huge splash and left Wei Luan wet. Lin Yi was standing beside Wei Luan, so she was also wet.

“Help! Help! I don’t know how to swim!” Widow Guo struggled in the water, occasionally sticking her head out. She looked extremely disheveled and did not have her usual charm and sensuality.

The women at the side were all watching the commotion. When they saw Widow Guo, who usually seduced men all day, fall into the water, they felt deeply gratified!

In the end, someone still fished Widow Guo out to prevent anyone from dying.

Wei Luan did not even look at Widow Guo. He turned around and grabbed Lin Yi’s cold hand. “Didn’t I leave word with Liuliu? I told you to stay home and rest today.”

“I’m not that fragile. By the way, why are you here? You can’t leave when you’re working, right? Hurry up and go back.”

Wei Luan was about to say something when his gaze fell on Lin Yi’s wet chest.

Her clothes were wet from Widow Guo’s splash and stuck tightly to her body. The curves on her chest became even more obvious.

A few villagers who came over to watch the show looked at Wei Luan and Lin Yi curiously.

Wei Luan did not want anyone to see Lin Yi, so he immediately pulled Lin Yi into his arms, helped her put on his clothes, and buttoned it at her chest.

“Wei Luan, what are you doing?” Lin Yi still did not understand what was going on.

“Go back quickly and change out of your wet clothes. Don’t catch a cold. I’ll be back as soon as I finish my work,” Wei Luan instructed.

Wei Luan still had to return to the production team. After putting on clothes for Lin Yi, he turned around and gave Widow Guo a threatening look.

After Wei Luan left, Lin Yi slowly picked up the wooden basin by the river. She was still wearing Wei Luan’s clothes, and all the women present were staring at her.

She thought about how Wei Luan had helped her teach Widow Guo a lesson in front of everyone. He had even taken off his clothes and put them on for her. Such a move was considered very bold in the countryside during the feudal era.

Lin Yi’s face turned red. Although she could solve the problem of Widow Guo by herself today, the feeling of having someone backing her up was still amazing.

Lin Yi had been independent since she was young, but she did not seem to realize that she yearned for someone to protect her and give her a sense of security.

“Why are you still following me?” Wei Luan turned around and saw that the big yellow dog was still following him. “I have to thank you for what you did just now. After all, it’s not appropriate for a man like me to fight with a woman. However, I still have work to do. Don’t follow me and don’t steal anything. I’ll bring you food at the back of the mountain tonight.”

Wei Luan pointed at a mountain not far away.

The big yellow dog wagged its tail as if it could understand him. Then, it turned around and ran toward the mountain.

Wei Luan returned to the production team. However, when he returned, the supervisors of the production team had already done a head count. Coincidentally, Wei Luan was not around.

Seeing that Wei Luan had returned, the team leader of the supervising team glared at Wei Luan. “Wei Luan, where have you been? It’s autumn and it’s the busiest season since we have to harvest the crop. Have you been slacking off?”

“Team Leader, Wei Luan just went to the toilet. He usually works the hardest. How could he be lazy?” Ergou saw the team leader making trouble for Wei Luan and immediately stood up to explain on his behalf.

“Toilet? Is the toilet over there? Do you think I’m blind?” The team leader sneered. He took out a pencil and made notes in his notebook. “Wei Luan, I’ll remember this. All your production points for the week will be deducted. If I catch you slacking off again, I’ll send you straight to the disciplinary team!”

“Huh? Deduct them all? Is there a need to be so strict? Although Wei Luan left for a while, we have not done as much work as him!” Ergou was stunned and his eyes widened.

The farmers who worked in the production team would also leave the farmland when they had something to attend to. The production team was not very strict about such matters. They only needed to complete their assigned tasks in the end.
