The life of Lao Liu since 1944

Chapter 147 I can’t explain why

Hou Jie was very confused. He looked around, trying to figure out where these people came from. Judging from their expressions, they should be villagers or relatives from the same village as Qin Huairu.

He clearly remembered that there was no one here just now, how come so many people suddenly appeared, and they all looked so angry and fierce? He muttered to himself: "Where did these people come from? Why am I so scary?"

A woman came and took clothes for Qin Huairu to put on to avoid exposing herself.

After all, the clothes are soaked, which is somewhat unsightly, so you still have to be careful.

One of them, his rough voice sounded like thunder, "Boy, what are you doing here? Are you tired of living by bullying Huai Ru in our village?"

After saying this, the man raised the hoe in his hand high up, ready to hit Hou Jie. Hou Jie looked at the hoe in his hand, and was terrified.

"Are you so violent? Are you going to slap yourself to death?"

He raised his hands and tried to explain, "No, you blamed me wrongly. I was just saving someone. She was drowning, and I just gave her artificial respiration."

Some people asked with confusion and puzzlement, "What is artificial respiration?"

Some people even ignorantly despised him, saying, "He touched and kissed the little girl. He is a hooligan, but he is still making excuses for himself. He is obviously a piece of shit and should be killed."

"How can a young girl like you get married in the future?"

"That's right. When he saw a woman, he drove straight towards her. You looked like a pervert. You were ready to do bad things to a woman. It looked like you hadn't touched a woman in eight hundred years. I'm telling you all right. None of you rich people are good."

Someone made a malicious guess: "If we had come later, we would have taken off our pants!"

Qin Huairu couldn't get a word in, and didn't know what to say! She looked so aggrieved, and I felt sorry for her. He knew Hou Jie wasn't that kind of person, and his behavior wasn't out of malice.

Hou Jie was about to cry. You can’t explain it like this. I’ve been wronged so much, even more wronged than Dou E! His voice was filled with endless grievance and helplessness.

Hou Jie was speechless after hearing these words. "Struck by lightning" could not describe how he felt.

I feel bitter when facing these ignorant country people.

"Baby, I feel sad, but I dare not say it. Woo woo!"

Hou Jie defended himself in a panic, saying that if he couldn't explain himself clearly, he would get into big trouble.

"Fellow villagers, that's not what I meant!"

He knew that no matter how much he explained, it would be useless, but he had to explain, otherwise the misunderstanding would deepen.

"Listen to my explanation. A drowning person will die if he is not rescued within 5 minutes. I am worried! Besides, there is no one around. I can't just watch a life disappear like that!"

Faced with doubts, one person retorted, "Who said there is no one?"

After saying that, he pointed to the reed marsh next to him and raised his voice by several decibels, "We were just resting not far away!"

Hou Jie looked at that place speechlessly. It happened to be the blind spot of his vision and it was indeed quite close.

"But you didn't notice that I was really trying to save people, not to be a hooligan. You have to believe me! I was using Western medicine to treat people."

Naturally, everyone would not admit the fact and tried to defend themselves by saying, "Who said we didn't notice it?"

"That's right. We saw you rushing into the water, picking up Huairu and putting her on the ground, and then you couldn't wait to do something bad."

"Yes, Auntie is right, you are a pervert and impatient."

During this waiting time, some people went to check on the vehicle driven by Hou Jie, and those who came back were whispering, as if discussing something. Although the small farmers are of humble status, their wisdom cannot be underestimated.

"This guy is obviously a rich young man, with red lips, white teeth, and a handsome face. He is also good-looking, a golden son-in-law from heaven. He is so young, he should not be married yet, so hurry up and make a move. The car is very new, it is obviously newly bought. It is very valuable, worth thousands of dollars."

"Our village has been poor for eight generations, we can't let this man go. Huairu is so beautiful, she will definitely be able to capture his soul. Then let Huairu say some pillow talk. There will be hope for our village to become prosperous.

The group of people gathered together and whispered for a long time. Some of them lowered their heads and whispered, and some had flashing eyes, obviously discussing countermeasures. And all of this was heard clearly by Hou Jie who was hiding in the dark. He had very sharp ears and heard the content of their conversation clearly.

A man who seemed to be the leader stood up, cleared his throat and said in a loud voice: "We don't care about that. Huairu has let you touch and kiss her anyway. You must give us an explanation now!" His tone was firm and resolute, obviously well thought out.

After hearing this, Hou Jie turned pale immediately. He had a sad face, spread his hands and said helplessly: "My fellow villagers, I would like to give you an explanation. But I have no money! And I am married, there is really no other way!" His words were full of helplessness and pain, as if he was really in trouble.

However, his explanation did not win their trust. They looked at him with suspicion, as if he was a liar. One of the women was even more unreasonable and said, "It's impossible. You can tell at a glance that you are not poor. You must be deceiving us." Her voice was sharp and harsh, full of anger and doubt.

Hou Jie was forced into a corner and had to continue lying. He said seriously, "I really didn't lie to you. I'm just a driver. This is my work uniform. I wear it like this for the convenience of traveling." His words revealed a sense of helplessness and grievance, as if he was really misunderstood.

However, his lies did not win their trust. One woman said unreasonably: "It's too late, is it important to say this?" Her voice was full of sarcasm and contempt, which made Hou Jie feel extremely angry and helpless.

“Is it important?” “Is it important?”…

When Hou Jie heard this familiar question, he staggered.

I immediately thought of those classic happy scenes in later TV dramas and stood there in shock, dumbfounded.

The strong smell of fraud almost made him spit out blood.

He knew very well that he had been targeted by these people, and his only way out now was to find a way to get rid of them as soon as possible.

His heart was filled with anxiety and fear, like a bird trapped in a net, eager to find a way out.

Hou Jie had no choice but to look at Qin Huairu. Just as Qin Huairu was about to explain, she was dragged away by several women with her mouth covered.

"I knocked on you guys, you guys are trying to kill me!"

"You're saving people, but you're putting yourself at risk?"

Looking at the struggling Qin Huairu, Hou Jie was overwhelmed. Will he be able to survive this time? Who will save him?

If he hadn't known that they were from the same village, he would have taken action. Seeing that Qin Huairu couldn't be relied on, Hou Jie had to solve the problem himself.

Hou Jie continued to explain, "I just came here to ask for directions. May I ask where this is?"

Someone answered with doubt, "Changping District, Qinjia Village, what's wrong?"

Hou Jie's heart skipped a beat. Could this be Qin Huairu's village, the hometown of the heroine in the courtyard? He turned his head to look at the little girl in the distance and took a closer look. It was indeed the young version of Qin Huairu.

Worried, he asked, "Excuse me, what's the girl's name?"

Someone looked at him like an idiot. "This is Qinjia Village. If your surname isn't Qin, then what is it? Don't change the subject, kid."

"Let's get down to business! Don't try to be cunning, kid!"
