Chapter 120: No secrets

Zhou Hao wanted to ask again, but seeing Yan Qing's melancholy look with her lips pressed, he couldn't bear to force her any more. With a sigh in his heart, he smiled and changed the subject: "By the way, I just heard from my aunt and them that you don't go to school anymore."
Yan lightly chinted her head slightly, and laughed somewhat self-deprecatingly: "Anyway, I am not a student. I have never passed Chinese and mathematics." She chuckled and looked at Zhou Hao. "Aunty said your grades in school are very good. Okay, Xiaohao, you have to work hard. In the future, you will have a better future if you enter a good university." She knows that only by studying hard will there be a good future, but she is no longer studying.
In fact, Zhou Hao knew that Yan Qing was the kind of girl with dexterity. If she could settle down and study seriously, her grades would not be worse than her own. However, on the one hand, the conditions in Yan Munan's family are not good. After a year of hard work, he can barely maintain the family life, and he has to support his parents and two elders with Yan Mudong. It would be difficult to bear Yan Qing's study expenses again. Yan Qingwen had to help her family with housework and farm work since she was young, and the time she could spend on her studies was very limited. Therefore, Yan Qingqing is not stupid, but objectively can't take care of studying.
She didn't go to high school, in fact, it was her intention in a lot of ways, because she didn't want to increase the burden on the family.
"Cousin Qing, if you have a chance, would you go to school again?" Zhou Hao asked.
Yan paused lightly, then shook his head and smiled: "Forget it, I don't have this talent, and I don't need to waste my thoughts."
"What about work, cousin, do you want to work in the city?" Zhou Hao said to her.
"Work?" Yan Qingqing moved in his heart.
Zhou Hao smiled and said, "Yeah, didn't my mother open a shop? You can come and help. After all, it is a family and it is very convenient to take care of it."
"Can I really do it?" Yan Qing was very heartbroken after hearing Zhou Hao's words, but after thinking about it, her expression dimmed again, "Still, I don't need it anymore. I want to stay here, I can't Leaving here." When she said these words, a kind of pain and helplessness flashed in her eyes, as if there was something that must be left here.
"Why? I don't think uncle and they will object." Zhou Hao said.
But seeing Yan gently stubbornly shook his head, "No, Xiaohao, I really don’t need it. I am fine here. I don’t need to go to the city anymore, and you can ask other people for help. I’m such a rural girl. , It’s not that you can’t do without me."
Zhou Hao was puzzled by Yan Qing's change, because when she said just now that she was asked to help in the city, her face was clearly moved, but she suddenly changed her attitude, obviously because of her difficulties. However, Zhou Hao knew that although Yan Qingqing was gentle and kind, she was sometimes very stubborn. If she didn't want to say it, she wouldn't know how to ask her.
So he deliberately said: "Forget it, I won't force you."
"Yeah." Yan nodded slightly, but there was also deep disappointment and helplessness in his eyes.
"By the way, my cousin, I'll bring you a gift this time." Zhou Hao smiled.
Yan Qing smiled again, "Really? What gift?"
Zhou Hao took out a concentric knot from his arms and handed it to Yan Qingqing, "Didn't you often say that you can have a concentric knot like the heroine on TV? I brought it to you."
Seeing this red concentric knot, Yan was stunned, and then two crystal tears overflowed from her eyes. She covered her mouth and cried out.
Zhou Hao was taken aback by Yan Qing's reaction, and quickly said, "Cousin Qing, what's wrong? You, why are you crying? Did I do something wrong? Cousin Qing, don't cry."
Yan gently shook his head, and cried: "No, you didn't do anything wrong, it's me, I'm so happy." She took the concentric knot and said to Zhou Hao: "Xiaohao, I'm so happy. I like your gift very much, I really like it." As she spoke, her tears flowed out again.
However, Zhou Hao felt that in addition to being happy, Yan Qing also had an inexplicable sadness between her eyes.
Yan Qingyan looked at the concentric knot that Zhou Hao gave him deeply, and then put it on his heart. Finally, he carefully put it into the bag of his clothes, wiped his tears and smiled at Zhou Hao: "Xiaohao Thank you, I like this gift, I really like it."
"Just like it, we've been out for a long time, let's go back." Zhou Hao said, taking Yan Qing's hand and going back down the mountain.
Holding hands by Zhou Hao, there were two faint red clouds on Yan Qing's face. Seeing Zhou Hao's grown-up mature figure, her eyes were suddenly blurred, and a little confused and sad.
And Zhou Hao, who was holding Yan Qingqing, also had a strange feeling in his heart, especially the warmth and slightly moist from the palm of Yan Qing's palm, as if a little bit of it entered Zhou Hao's heart.
Back in front of Yan's house, Zhou Hao and Yan Qingtian saw a group of villagers watching by the door, and there was a quarrel inside. Zhou Hao was shocked, and quickly led Yan Qing through the crowd and walked inside.
As he walked through the crowd, Zhou Hao heard someone say: "Huh? Isn't that the wife of the old Wei family? How come back with a man?"
Except for Zhou Hao, Yan Qing also heard this, but she didn't say anything, just lowered her head and followed Zhou Hao. Zhou Hao had no time to bother with these villagers, and He Yan gently walked into Yan's house.
As soon as he arrived in the yard, Zhou Hao saw two dogs lying there bloody, both of them were torn apart, their intestines and internal organs were flowing out, which looked terrifying. And Yan Mudong, Yan Munan and Yan Tong were both in the yard. Seeing Zhou Hao and Yan come back gently, Yan Munan hurriedly came over and said nervously: "You are back now, what? Nothing happened outside, right?"
Zhou Hao shook his head and asked Yan Munan, "Second Uncle, what is going on? Why did these two dogs die in our yard?"
Uncle Yan Mudong walked to the door and waved to the onlookers outside, "It's okay, let's all go back. Only two dogs died. There is nothing to look at. Let's go back." He said that he left the yard. The door closed.
Yan Tong glanced at the two dogs and said, "This shouldn't be our dog."
Yan Munan shook his head and said, "No."
"But who threw them into our yard so disgusting?" Yan Tong covered his mouth.
At this moment, Yan Qing's face was very ugly. Looking at the two terrible dead dogs on the ground, she said to herself: "It must be the guy Wei Kuanji."
Although she spoke in a low voice, Zhou Hao's ears were so strong that she could hear her clearly. This was also the first time Zhou Hao heard "Wei Kuanji" from Yan Qing's mouth. Uncle Lenovo and Yan Qing's abnormality just now, Zhou Hao immediately guessed that it must be related to Wei Kuanji.
"Don't talk about it, let's deal with these two dogs." Yan Mudong said, and together with Yan Munan, he carried the bodies of the two dogs out of the yard and covered the blood on the ground with sand.
When he returned to the house, Zhou Hao first asked: "Uncle and Uncle, what happened? The two dogs just now were clearly a threat. Uncle and Uncle, we are all one family. People, let us know if you have anything, and we will definitely help."
Yan Tong also said: "Yes, big brother, second brother, Xiaohao is right, tell us what happened."
Yan Mudong sighed deeply. Yan Munan said: "We have always been raising fish. Two years ago, we contracted four fish ponds and brought the cultivated fish to the nearby county town to buy. Business is pretty good, and our life is better. But half a year ago, plus our original three, a total of seven fish ponds all died. We don’t know why. Moreover, when we bought fry He still owes thousands of yuan to others. If the fish cannot be sold, the money will not be paid."
"Just when we were unable to do anything, the old Wei family said that they could lend us the money first." Yan Mudong said: "We borrowed the old Wei family's 5,000 yuan and quickly bought the fry and re-bred them. But, despite No matter how careful we were, the fry died later, and the person who sold the fry to us also came to collect the debt."
Hearing what the two uncles said, Zhou Hao frowned tightly, and heard Yan Munan say: "Where can we return the money to others, the man said that if we don't have the money, we will take our house away. At that time, the old Wei family borrowed another 5,000 yuan to pay us back that debt, but in this way, we owed the old Wei family 10,000 yuan."
Yan Mudong said: "We don't dare to raise fish anymore. If we want to pay back slowly, we can always pay off the 10,000 yuan from the old Wei family in three or four years. However, just last fall, we wanted the field. At the time of harvest, the rice in the field died for some reason. Without this rice, not only would we not have any income this year, but even food and clothing would be a problem."
At this time Zhou Hao spoke, "Then the Wei family took the initiative to lend you money again?"
Yan Mudong Yan Munan looked at Zhou Hao in surprise, "Xiaohao, how did you know?"
Yan Munan said: "After the rice died, the old Wei family lent us another five thousand yuan when they saw that we were in difficulty."
The second aunt Lu Guifang sighed, "We owed the old Wei family a total of 15,000 yuan, but they didn’t urge him. However, later, Wei’s son A Ji came to us to propose a marriage. Tell us, as long as we gently marry her, we won’t have to pay back the fifteen thousand yuan, and their family will give us ten thousand yuan as a gift."
"But we know that Aji." Yan Munan said, "Although that kid is not very old, he is good at gambling and drinking, he is not a good man."
