Yu Zhou actually wanted to take advantage of the free time in the evening to check the two dry lands that belonged to him and bring back some wild vegetables.

Unexpectedly, Jinchuan was quite serious. When he heard that he was going to pick wild vegetables, he immediately put down what he was holding and went to the kitchen to get a small basket to take with him.

Yu Zhou was like all men who didn't like to carry bags when they went out. Not only did he not carry one, he also felt it was unnecessary. "We can't pick many wild vegetables. We can bring some back with us."

Jinchuan took out a small hoe from the basket and raised it, saying, "There are still two eggs left from Aunt Chen's gift. I want to dig some shepherd's purse and bring it back. I can make shepherd's purse fried eggs tomorrow."

Everything had been arranged. What else could Yu Zhou say?

When they went out, they happened to catch up with the villagers coming back from working in the fields. Therefore, not long after they walked out of the yard, they ran into three women carrying baskets.

After seeing them, the women exchanged glances and whispered a few words. Then the slightly plump aunt glared at the other two and walked a few steps closer to Yu Zhou and Jin Chuan: "Zhou boy, this is the boy you carried back a few days ago, what's his name?"

"Jin Chuan." Yu Zhou had no impression of these women, but since they were from the same village, he would live here for a long time in the future. In order to maintain a harmonious relationship with the villagers, he couldn't neglect him.

"The name is quite nice," the woman looked at Jin Chuan back and forth, "He is handsome too."

In addition to her, the two women who were a little further away also looked at Jin Chuan.

People who had come into contact with Jin Chuan before were either implicit or, like his stepmother, expressed disgust directly.

Such a look that looked at you clearly but without any malice made him feel a little helpless for a while, but he couldn't hide.

Yu Zhou noticed his discomfort, took a step forward without leaving a trace, and said to the woman: "Are you coming back from the fields?"

"Yes," the women's eyes really moved to him, "It's almost dark, where are you going?"

"There's no vegetables at home, go dig some wild vegetables for tomorrow's meal." Yu Zhou said.

The woman who stood up to talk to them rolled her eyes and didn't respond. One of the two women behind her, however, changed her expression slightly, and said with a smile: "I have to go back to feed the pigs, so I won't chat with you anymore."

The other person saw someone taking the lead and followed suit: "Let's go together, I have something to do at home."

As the two of them left, the woman who had been talking to Yu Zhou glanced at the vegetables in the basket, hesitated for a moment and said: "Then you go pick wild vegetables, I won't delay you."

After that, she followed.

After everyone walked away, Jinchuan turned around and said, "You just..."

"I didn't mean to do that." Yu Zhou interrupted him. He just wanted to draw the attention of those people to himself. Who knew they would think that he wanted to steal the vegetables in their baskets?

Jinchuan lowered his head and smiled secretly where Yu Zhou couldn't see, "Then let's go dig shepherd's purse."

After saying that, without waiting for Yu Zhou to answer, he took the basket and walked away. His steps were brisk and he looked in a very good mood.
