Chapter 6, The Pressure of Mount Tai

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Saying this, she went into the fields wearing knee-high boots

Daining's speed is so slow, in fact, Du Tian, who walks quickly, arrived quite a while ago.

The young lady's skin is delicate and flawless, fair and tender

If Dainin were not by her side, she could still comfort herself that she was currently sharing hardships with Zhao Yu, but there sat a lively young girl under the banana leaves

Zhao Yu became numb to it over time and was too lazy to pay her any attention

Come here quickly

He suppressed his temper and quickened his pace to harvest the rice, yet he could not help but spare a bit of his attention for Daining

Du Tian made vegetable pancakes early in the morning. Unlike the locals of Xinghua Village, she is generous with oil when cooking, resulting in pancakes that are both crispy and fragrant

Du Tianhui possesses both beauty and grace, with exceptional culinary skills. Zhao Yu's brows relaxed, as the summer breeze brushed past them, creating a serene and beautiful atmosphere, until Zhao Yu spotted a girl in a purple dress in the distance

Zhao Yu, being deeply affectionate, will certainly not forget her kindness in helping him once he becomes successful in the future

Once one is in the presence of Ji Daining, others can hardly divert even a fraction of attention away from her

In fact, her insights and analyses are exceedingly accurate. In her previous life, Daining successfully became an indelible presence in Zhao Yu's life

Du Tian explained: "Last year, my mother went into the mountains to gather firewood, and thanks to you, her life was saved. I have always wanted to express my gratitude to you"

Dai Ning intended to engage in mischief, and Uncle Qian was not allowed to follow. She and Zhao Ping walked along the winding field paths for quite a while, and finally saw Zhao Yu and Du Tian in the distance

It is now 10:30, and the sun has fully risen. The morning sun is not scorching, yet in July, it is still quite intense.

That gaze is full of interest ... like watching a monkey show

Zhao Ping did not dare to look at her and ran away quickly. He was twelve years old, approaching the age of youthful infatuation. The young lady was beautiful to the point of being almost enchanting, yet her personality was rather mischievous. He had heard from his classmates in middle school that it was best not to provoke such girls

Several cakes can be exchanged for a rabbit, which means she made a profit

Zhao Yu noticed her originally fair face had turned red, and after a moment of silence, he said: "You should just go back"

Zhao Yu only went to see her taking photos after he was full and had nothing else to do

Hurry up, if you don't leave, we will.

Du Tian had no room for regret; she felt vexed in her heart, yet she still insisted on accompanying Zhao Yu to finish harvesting this piece of land

Dai Ning would only understand him if there were ghosts. She tightly grasped the boy's collar and said, "If you don't find a way for me, I won't let you continue"

Du Tian was not discouraged; she said, "Then you should drink some water."

After a while, he went into the woods and picked a few banana leaves. He set up a shelter under a small tree, placing two leaves on the ground, and said to Dainin, "Come over."

Dai Ning tilted her head in confusion and said: "I came to see you harvest rice, why aren't you working? Are you being lazy?"

He gritted his teeth and said, "Miss Ji ... ... !" After a long while, he realized that he did not know the full name of the young lady

Zhao Yu's lips twitched, but he did not speak. Interrupted in his mood for eating, he rolled up his pant legs again, preparing to head to the fields.

The light in her eyes is sincere, neither excessively flattering nor overly cold

Du Tian, standing nearby, raised her gaze to look at Dai Ning. Being so close, she finally felt more clearly the stunning beauty that Dai Ning radiated.

"It's so hot, I'm burning up," she said urgently, grabbing the boy's clean collar. "You need to think of a way out of this."

Du Tian took a breath, her eyes filled with emotion staring at her: "Do not speak recklessly"

Zhao Ping ran out of sight, while Dai Ning lifted her skirt, carefully stepping over the mud puddle, and walked towards the male and female leads

Dai Ning glanced at his hand and began to find it dirty again

Zhao Yu said softly: "Thank you"

Only then did she feel happy, pulling Zhao Yu's clothes to stand up. Dai Ning thought to herself that it seemed somewhat inferior for the male and female leads to hold hands while she was merely pulling at his clothes.

Is the attraction between the male and female leads really that strong? She is such a big light bulb here!

He hesitated for a moment, but this time he did not refuse

Yet, Dainin tugged at his ear and said in a sweet yet fierce tone: "Zhao Yu, are you going to leave or not! You are delaying my meal!"

Zhao Yu: "Miss, what are you doing?"

Zhao Yu's movements paused for a moment, and veins bulged on the back of his hand

Daining sat cross-legged, propping her chin on her hand as she watched them

Good

He set down the vegetable pancake and asked Daining: "What brings you here?"

Girls all love beauty, and Du Tian is even worried that Zhao Yu might smell the sweat on her body

But the premise is that the young lady did not come to cause trouble

Dainin's eyes were round and bulging as she threatened him: "You dare not take care of me!"

Zhao Yu knows her true character

Zhao Yu's expression towards her improved significantly, and he shook his head to decline Du Tian's kind offer: "Thank you, but no need."

Dainin was indeed very surprised

Dai Ning nodded in agreement: "So easily tired, he is so weak"

Du Tian began to regret not long after entering the fields. The midday sun was glaring, and it was bearable by the edge of the field, but facing the blazing sun in the fields, she quickly broke into a sweat. Her clothes clung to her body, soaked through, her boots were covered in mud, and her pants were splattered with quite a bit as well

Zhao Yu saw that she had stopped causing a fuss and continued with the farming work

Du Tian was left speechless. She glanced at Zhao Yu in the field, wanting to convey that she did not mean it that way

Zhao Yu observed the leisurely demeanor of Daining, and a vein on his forehead throbbed.

Her dress resembles a blooming violet, adorned with ribbons of the same color in her hair

Brother Zhao Yu, it's almost noon, and you still have so much left. Let me help you

Dai Ning thought to herself that Du Tian truly deserves to be the female lead, as she is quite determined; even in such heat, she stands by Zhao Yu's side. No wonder this bond of childhood friendship moves Zhao Yu.

Du Tian stared at him blankly, her heart racing, as she placed her hand into his palm

Does she think everyone is like her? And lazy as well

He said, "Let go, I will find a way for you"

Zhao Yu's family situation is known to her; there are only two sensible young men in the household. They usually mend their own torn clothes. According to Du Tian's analysis, such men particularly need care and companionship

Zhao Yu reasoned with her: "I must finish cutting this area; if I take you back and return, it will be afternoon."

Zhao Yu has already spoken: "Du Tian, do not pay attention to her."

She cast a glance at Du Tian, who was staring intently this way, as if a mountain were pressing down, hooking Zhao Yu's neck, with half of her body hanging on him

Upon seeing her expression, Zhao Yu, who had been enjoying his meal, suddenly found the flatbread in his mouth to be tasteless as he recalled the sumptuous meals that the young lady had been having these past two days

"Did you say he is tired?" She is much fiercer than Du Tian, glaring back with her big eyes

The girl said: "I didn't take a picture of you, do you want to take a look?"

The sun was shining brightly, and Dainin began to regret coming out

After her family achieved a moderately prosperous life, Du Tian began to pay attention to the quality of life, searching for recipes online to learn how to cook and brew tea

Ji Daining's eyes sparkled like stars, her cheeks a light pink, and her skirt spread out on the banana leaves, watching her as if it were a play, making Du Tian feel utterly uncomfortable

How could he dare to provoke the young lady, with a set of dishes costing over 30,000, causing him to have a night full of nightmares

Zhao Yu did not want to pull her, what is wrong with the young lady, after playing for more than an hour, she still wants someone to pull her up

Fortunately, reason prevailed, and he was accustomed to keeping things to himself. He restrained his temper and led the "koala" girl forward.

Dai Ning ignored the two of them chatting and laughing, her gaze fixed on the vegetable pancake in Zhao Yu's hand, filled with a glaring expression of disdain

What is most infuriating is that Ji Daining is being taken care of so well by Zhao Yu, while she endures the scorching sun in the fields, and the man beside her is clearly somewhat distracted

He knows that Du Tian is a good girl, and he feels quite moved in his heart, thinking about how to take care of her and her mother as much as possible in the future

She did not do anything wrong; she merely rested her chin on her hand while watching him and Du Tian harvest the rice.

In the underdeveloped Xinghua Village, one cannot rely on boiling tea, but her skills in cooking and identifying wild vegetables are particularly outstanding. Relying on these two skills, she and her mother have been living quite well since she entered the book.

The female protagonist does not leave, nor can she leave. Having persevered until now, she has finally reached her limit

Dai Ning was unhappy, and her displeasure was evident on her face as she glared at Zhao Yu

Zhao Yu pulled Du Tian up

Seeing Zhao Yu's refusal, she said decisively: "I will just help you stack it a bit. You have already delayed for quite a while, and it might rain at any moment. If you don't hurry, it will be too late."

During the busy farming season, the family's meals were not good; the bowl of thin porridge in the morning had long been digested. He was both thirsty and hungry, and on top of that, Du Tian continued to gently say: "Next time you go outside the mountain, please bring me a little rabbit."

Zhao Yu fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Zhao Yu first came ashore, and he reached out his hand to Du Tian, saying, "Come up, you have worked hard."

Du Tian, who stood beside, also looked over with vigilance, forming a picturesque scene.

He turned eighteen last year, which is the age of growth. At his hungriest, Zhao Yu felt that he could eat a whole cow

Du Tian was previously recognized as the most beautiful girl in the village, and upon seeing her, one would likely gossip about her

Du Tian's heart was filled with joy, causing her to forget the earlier embarrassment; she was eager to see Dainin's reaction

Dainin said: "I cannot find the way back, please take me back."

Dai Ning smiled and nodded: "Goodbye."

Please hang up the clothes, my clothes are clean

The beautiful moments that originally belonged to her and Zhao Yu suddenly turned into a bizarre scene due to the arrival of Daining

Before entering the book, Du Tian was already 25 years old, a white-collar worker. In her childhood, she lived in the countryside with her family and had done all kinds of farm work, making her quite capable and efficient.

Her competitive spirit made her no longer disdain Zhao Yu for being dirty

However, Zhao Yu's family only has him as a strong laborer, so they can only finish the harvesting before figuring out a way to thresh the grain

Zhao Yu turned around

The male and female protagonists in the field heard the sound of a camera shutter and simultaneously looked up

Du Tianxin's thoughts turned several times, while Ji Daining's petulance was annoying and only added to the chaos. If at this moment she were to show that she was not afraid of hardship and was wholeheartedly concerned for Zhao Yu, the comparison between the two would be stark

Zhao Yu saw her and was immediately filled with grievances, his tone not very pleasant: "What is it with you again?"

Seeing Du Tian's poor complexion, Dai Ning felt particularly good

Zhao Yu's expression darkened, yet the person before him was someone he could neither hit nor speak to.

Du Tian felt a sweet sensation in her heart when she saw Zhao Yu aligning himself with her on the same front, and she decided not to argue with Dai Ning anymore, softly responding, "Hmm"

Du Tian frowned and said, "Miss Ji, Zhao Yu is not a machine; he can naturally take a break when he is tired"

Although Du Tian went to help, she only assisted with stacking, which was a drop in the bucket for Zhao Yu

Dainin huffed: "You come pull me."

The young lady approached cautiously

Zhao Yu did not know what the two girls were thinking. He picked up the sickle and said to Dainin, who was under the banana leaves, "Miss, let's go back"

Du Tianrou said softly: "Brother Zhao Yu, I made vegetable pancakes. My mother asked me to share some with the neighbors. Would you like to try some?"

Zhao Yu truly wanted to give the girl on his arm a scythe

Dai Ning stood on the ridge, and Zhao Yu, who had already harvested several large rows of rice, called out: "Hey, come over here."

Zhao Ping was afraid that his brother would scold him for bringing the young lady, and hurriedly asked Dai Ning: "My brother is right there, can I go back now?"

Zhao Yu sighed; he just wanted to hurry back to eat. He resignedly walked over and reached out his hand to pull her.

Hanging like a koala, his girlfriend urged, "My name is Daining, hurry up, hurry up, it's so hot, I want to go back"

After taking several steps, he felt as if he had forgotten something

She took out her phone from her bag and began to take pictures of the scenery

Although she does not like Zhao Yu, she wants to provoke Du Tian

She has never seen people harvesting rice. Generally speaking, rural couples work in the fields together, cutting and threshing simultaneously

Zhao Yu was initially puzzled as to why Du Tian had suddenly been so kind to him during this period, but upon hearing this, he understood.

Du Tian next to her felt uncomfortable, as she always thought that Dai Ning had captured her embarrassing appearance.

A wise woman understands that she cannot press too hard; making exchanges will bring peace of mind to a man

Zhao Yu was almost choked to death by her

Zhao Yu came up from the field, took the vegetable pancake from Du Tian, and sat beside her to eat it with the cool boiled water she brought

To speak reasonably, with Ji Daining around, she is simply the core of the world. Whether it is to draw attention to her or to want to eliminate her, she excels at both.

Dai Ning happily ran over and sat down, feeling quite curious. Although it was still hot, she was no longer in the sun, and the view from where she sat was quite good.

Turning around, Du Tian looked at them with a sense of grievance, and only then did Zhao Yu remember that he had forgotten about Du Tian
