Chapter 22 lack of heart
On the east side of the slope, at the site of the village that Shen Jingcheng dragged Lin Hu to the immigrants, a few young men were patrolling around the area.

"Hey, is it really okay for us not to patrol the west all the time?" A young voice asked.

"What's wrong? There's no one on duty in that family named Gu today, so why hang around there?" Another boy's voice echoed indifferently.

"That's right. The one surnamed Gu and the one surnamed Shen occupy too much space. It's really tiring to walk so much and go around."

"You guys are also stupid. If I hadn't gone there in the first place, that boy surnamed Shen is not on duty. Why should he patrol with him?"

"You can't say that, what if something happens over there?"

"If something happens, it will happen. We don't owe him or deserve him. Who is to blame if he doesn't participate in the patrol?"

"That's right, the whole village is full of people, and he's the only one who doesn't. After becoming the head of the village, he really thinks he's a big shot..."

Several people chatted and laughed as they drifted away, Shen Jingcheng stood quietly in the shadow and watched them leave.

In the night, his eyes were extremely cold.

Don't owe him, don't owe him?
Accidents happen?
So... so be it.

Shen Jingcheng took a deep look at the village under the slope, and went home with Gu Jin on his back. Gu Jin, who had been sleeping all this time, knew nothing about what happened tonight.

The next day Gu Jin woke up in Shen Jingcheng's arms, and when he opened his eyes, he saw his increasingly handsome sleeping face, and couldn't help feeling better instantly.

These eyebrows and eyes are really good. I don't know how this person looks. His face is even better than his previous life, and his stature is also much taller than his previous life. If I hadn't grown up with him, I would It wasn't that his eyebrows didn't change, she wondered if this person had been dropped.

Gu Jin maliciously reached out and tugged at the eyelashes under his eyelids. What does a man do with such long eyelashes?How nice it would be to look good in your own eyes.

Shen Jingcheng had actually woken up a long time ago, but he didn't like to move very much. He felt movement in his eyes and slowly opened them, and saw her showing a little wickedness, so he couldn't help laughing.

"Are you awake?" Shen Jingcheng quietly looked at her with a lazy tone, not wanting to move at all.

He didn't want to move, but Gu Jin remembered it, and felt a pain in the back of his neck as soon as he moved, and couldn't help taking a light breath.

"What's the matter?" Seeing this, Shen Jingcheng asked quickly, but there was no surprise in his eyes, as if he knew why she shouted a long time ago.

"My neck seems to be stiff." Gu Jin said as he turned his head slightly to the right, and immediately hissed in pain.

"I'll give you a press." Shen Jingcheng got up and asked her to sit with his back facing him, and pressed on her neck.

Her neck was slender and fair, and the bruise the size of a fingerprint was particularly conspicuous.

Shen Jingcheng gently pressed the bruised place, feeling distressed and guilty.

If he was not afraid of what would happen if he left last night, or if he was afraid that he would beat someone up and scare her, no matter what he said, he would never treat her like this.

Gu Jin gasped under the pressure and felt better after a while, so Shen Jingcheng stopped and hurriedly got off the kang and ran to the hut.

As soon as Gu Jin left, Shen Jingcheng also got up, looked at what was in the kitchen and started cooking.

In the past few years, I have always watched Gu Jin cook, and he is almost familiar with it. Basically, he will take the initiative to cook when he has time.

When Gu Jin came back from the latrine and saw that he had already started to light the fire, he went to the side to wash up, completely unaware that the pain in his neck was not a stiff neck, but was pinched by Shen Jingcheng.

After eating, the two of them waited for the workers to come to lead the cattle and get the farm tools and went to the field together.

These workers are still the few families in the village who had nothing when they first came.The difference is that although they still don't have cattle and large farm tools, almost every household has a few small farm tools like sickles and shovels.

I don't know why, but Shen Jingcheng seems to be in a bad mood today. In the past, when these people were working, Shen Jingcheng would always work together as much as he could, especially in the past two years. For those strong laborers who were at that time.

But today Shen Jingcheng didn't do anything, seeing those people sweating profusely, he sat on the ground with Gu Jin in a leisurely manner, without any intention of going down to the ground.

Of course, it is even more impossible for Gu Jin to do it. Although Shen Jingcheng has been taking her to the fields all these years, he has never let her reach out to do work, for fear of tiring her.

Gu Jin didn't know what was wrong with Shen Jingcheng, and thought he was uncomfortable, so he leaned against him and asked with concerned eyes.

"What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"

"No." Shen Jingcheng smiled, and said with a look of melancholy: "I just don't know how many eggs the locusts have left behind. After planting millet this time, will they be eaten again?"

Gu Jin heard that he was worried about this, and sighed softly as he looked at the crop stalks left all over the place.

That's right, I don't know how many eggs those locusts have left behind. Even if they plant millet, will they be gnawed again after the seedlings emerge.

Not to mention Shen Jingcheng, even she couldn't cheer herself up.

However, she didn't know that Shen Jingcheng was thinking more than this, he looked at Yang Shitou's family working in the field from time to time, his eyes were slightly cold.

He doesn't know about others, but last night, the young man who said he didn't owe him and didn't deserve him, and that the accident happened was Yang Erniu, the eldest son of Yang Shitou, and the other two people who talked to Yang Erniu were other people. The son of two families.

He really didn't expect that these teenagers who usually only work dull-headedly would think this way, and he didn't know how unwilling these two people with such thoughts are to work for themselves every day, maybe they have such thoughts People, not only these two teenagers?
The more Shen Jingcheng thought about it, he didn't know how to tell Gu Jin what happened last night.

After several years of getting along, this girl still has some feelings for those people. If she knew that these people would say that behind their backs, how disappointed and sad would she be?

It's okay for Shen Jingcheng not to work for a day or two, but if he doesn't work for five or six days, he will be very popular.

"District chief, we are all working for your family, but you don't do anything, isn't it appropriate?" Yang Erniu came to Shen Jingcheng with righteous indignation on his face.

"Help my family with work?" Shen Jingcheng looked at Yang Erniu up and down, and asked suspiciously: "Didn't you come to work for me because you used my ox and plow to cultivate the land? Didn't we exchange? 'Help' my house with work?"

Shen Jingcheng put a lot of emphasis on the word 'help'. The help is free, but the exchange is different.

"You, why are you talking like that?" Yang Erniu's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said angrily, "How much work do we do for you? How many days will you use cattle for us? It's not that we help you farm, can you Are there any places like these now?"

"Oh, you think it's unfair?" Shen Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, raised his chin and pointed at those people who had stopped their work since Yang Erniu came over, and asked, "Is it just you who think so, or do all those people think so?"

Yang Erniu's heart was pounding when he asked him, but he mustered up his courage and said, "Of course it's all of us, you are too bullying, we work for you from the beginning to the end of the year, but you only Let us each use oxen to plow more than ten acres of land, the landlord Lao Cai is not as cruel as you."

"Oh, that's it." Shen Jingcheng smiled as if he was very embarrassed, stood up and patted the dirt on his body, and waved to everyone in the field: "Don't do it yet, come here."
