Chapter 202 Hu Tingting Helps
Shen Nian, Ye Jiaojiao and Su Dingyi came out of the chicken farm carrying buckets, ready to go to the river to fetch water.
At this time, Hu Tingting, who had been standing outside the chicken farm, hurried over and asked with a smile, "Shen Zhiqing, are you going to fetch water? Let me help you!"
Hu Tingting said this and snatched the bucket from Shen Nian's hand and ran towards the river first.
Ye Jiaojiao watched Hu Tingting's actions, frowning slightly, and said with some concern: "Sister Nian, she has been following you for a while, right? What does she want to do?"
The corners of Shen Nian's mouth lifted slightly, and he smiled lightly: "Didn't Hu Tingting say that she wanted to be friends with me?"
"She's your friend? Sister Nian, you're not buying into Hu Tingting's lies, are you?" Ye Jiaojiao's tone was filled with disbelief. "Have you forgotten how she targeted you because of Lin Yu?"
Shen Nian nodded, a hint of deep meaning flashing in her eyes: "Of course I haven't forgotten, but people change. Maybe she has realized that I really don't have any feelings for Lin Yu, so she has changed her mind about me, don't you think? Jiaojiao."
"Is this really the case?" Ye Jiaojiao still had doubts in her heart, but seeing Shen Nian's calm attitude, she had no choice but to choose to believe her.
The three of them walked and talked until they reached the river. Hu Tingting had already drawn water and was standing there waiting for them with a bright smile on her face.
"Shen Zhiqing, you're here. Come on, I'll help you carry the water back." Hu Tingting said as she was about to bend down to pick up the bucket.
Shen Nian looked at the one-third of water in the bucket and smiled: "Hu Zhiqing, the water you fetched is too little. I'm too lazy to make two more trips. You need to add more."
As she spoke, she took Ye Jiaojiao's bucket, scooped some water from it and poured it into her own bucket until it was full.
Hu Tingting looked at Shen Nian's full bucket, her eyes widened, and she wondered in her heart, with such a big bucket of water, should she help or not?
Shen Nian didn't seem to notice anything unusual about her. Seeing her standing still, he asked, "Tingting, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Nian called her Tingting? Does this prove that her flattery is still effective? After trying to please her for so long, she can't just give up because of a bucket of water.
Hu Tingting gritted her teeth and said, "Oh! It's okay. Let's go. I'll carry the water to the chicken farm with you." As she said that, she bent down again to carry the water.
Upon hearing this, Shen Nian also bent down to pick up his own bucket: "Thank you, Tingting, but I'll do it myself. I appreciate your kindness."
Hu Tingting was stunned for a moment, then she laughed: "It's okay, Shen Zhiqing, it's easier for us to carry it together. If you need any help in the future, just let me know!"
"Can I really tell you? Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?" Shen Nian asked politely.
Hu Tingting quickly shook her head: "Why would you bother me? We are friends, and helping each other is what we should do."
"I think you're right. I deserve a slap on the tongue. How could I say such a rude thing to a friend before? It just so happens that my job today is to chop chicken grass. How about you join me later?"
Shen Nian changed his usual cold expression and warmly invited Hu Tingting to the chicken farm.
"What?" Hu Tingting's expression froze for a moment, then she nodded and agreed, "Okay! I've never picked chicken grass before in my life. I'll join you later!"
The two chatted and laughed as they returned to the chicken farm carrying the water. Hu Tingting felt a little regretful. Wasn't this bucket of water too heavy? How could it be so heavy for two people to carry?
Ye Jiaojiao's eyes followed the backs of Shen Nian and Hu Tingting as they walked away, and her worries surged in her heart. She quickly asked Su Dingyi who was standing beside her.
"Aunt Su, is my sister really planning to be friends with Hu Tingting?" Her tone revealed uneasiness.
Su Dingyi looked at the buckets carried by the two people in front of her, which kept tilting in one direction, and answered Ye Jiaojiao's words against her will: "Since Xiao Nian said yes, then she must really want to be friends with Hu Zhiqing."
"Ah? Sister Nian is really serious? What should I do, Aunt Su? I don't want to be friends with Hu Tingting!"
Ye Jiaojiao's brows were furrowed, and her face was full of distress: "But Sister Nian's friends are my friends, and I can't embarrass Sister Nian because of this."
Su Dingyi gently patted Ye Jiaojiao's shoulder and comforted her, "Things are not as complicated as you think. Xiao Nian can do her thing and you can do yours. This will not affect your relationship."
"That's true, but I just don't want my sister to get close to Hu Tingting. I always feel that Hu Tingting is up to no good." Ye Jiaojiao pouted, looking reluctant.
Su Dingyi heard this and shook her head slightly, a smile on her lips: "Since you are so worried about Hu Tingting, then let's go back quickly and keep an eye on her so that she doesn't dare to have any bad thoughts about your sister."
When the two returned to the chicken coop, they saw Hu Tingting squatting next to Shen Nian, chopping chicken grass carefully and unskillfully.
"Tingting, hurry up. After we finish the work at the chicken farm, I will take you for a walk around the farm to see the chickens we raise!" Shen Nian urged from time to time.
"okay, I get it!"
Hu Tingting agreed with her mouth, but she kept cursing Shen Nian in her heart. She even suspected that Shen Nian was deliberately playing with her. Didn't he see that her knife was about to chop off her fingers, but he kept urging her!
Time passed minute by minute, and the work in the chicken farm was almost done.
Shen Nian looked at the sweaty Hu Tingting and handed her a handkerchief with a smile: "Tingting, wipe your sweat first. You have worked really hard today."
Hu Tingting looked at the handkerchief in Shen Nian's hand. The handkerchief looked old and seemed to have been patinated. She didn't want to take it at all.
But when he saw the smile on Shen Nian's face, he gritted his teeth, reached out to take the handkerchief, wiped his face twice, and put it back into Shen Nian's hand.
He didn't forget to say polite words, "It's not hard, Shen Zhiqing, next time you call me, I will come to help you with the work."
"If you're serious, I'll really tease you next time! And don't call me Shen Zhiqing anymore. It makes us seem distant. Just call me Shen Nian from now on! Come on, I'll take you around our chicken farm!"
Shen Nian spoke enthusiastically and led Hu Tingting into the chicken farm woods.
The other people in the chicken farm were confused for a moment when they saw Shen Nian's unusual behavior.
Not only did Shen Nian no longer lock Hu Tingting outside the chicken farm? Instead, he kept smiling at her? He even brought her into the chicken farm?
