Unable to Defend Himself

At this moment, Xiao Sheng didn’t dare to get up, since he was afraid that Yu Bing would see his physiological reaction and scold him for being a perv. At that time, he would really not be able to explain himself. However, when he saw Yu Bing’s embarrassed expression, he didn’t dare to say anything else. After thinking for a moment, he sat up with the blanket and glanced elsewhere. “Go past me.”

Yu Bing frowned when she saw Xiao Sheng’s strange actions, but when she thought about how she could get out of bed now, she decided not to pursue the matter. When she got out of bed and put on her shoes, she heard a sound behind her.

When Yu Bing turned around, she realized that Xiao Sheng was lying down again. Moreover, his face was a little flushed. She hurriedly reached out and touched Xiao Sheng’s forehead. “Are you feeling unwell?”

Xiao Sheng hurriedly brushed Yu Bing’s hand away. If he held her hand for a while longer, he would feel even more uncomfortable. “I’m fine. I’m going to sleep for a while more, so you can go out first.”

Yu Bing looked at the sweat on her hands and thought of Xiao Sheng’s resistance to taking medicine, so she said angrily, “You’re afraid of taking medicine, so you didn’t tell me that you were sick?”

Xiao Sheng was unable to defend himself, so he said with a conflicted look, “Yu Bing, I’m really fine. I’ll be fine after lying down for a few more minutes.”

Yu Bing narrowed her eyes at the nervous Xiao Sheng. She was certain that he was afraid of taking medicine, so she pulled Xiao Sheng’s arm. “No, I’m bringing you to the hospital now.”

Unless Xiao Sheng was willing to get up himself, Yu Bing couldn’t drag him away.

Yu Bing saw Xiao Sheng looking at her with a troubled expression, but he didn’t say anything, so she sized up Xiao Sheng quizzically, making him even more nervous.

In her previous life, Yu Bing had also heard some dirty jokes from the female bosses around her. Seeing Xiao Sheng cover his lower body with the blanket nervously, Yu Bing instantly understood and her face turned red.

She hurriedly turned around and said quickly, “Lie down for a while more.” Then, she fled.

Seeing this, Xiao Sheng finally heaved a sigh of relief. After seeing the door close, he lifted the blanket and looked at a certain spot that was still erect. His head ached, so he could only try to divert his attention to serious matters.

Ten minutes later, he finally returned to normal. Only then did Xiao Sheng slowly get up and get off the bed.

When the two of them saw each other in the courtyard, they deliberately averted their gazes to avoid looking at each other. Mr. Wang had already prepared breakfast. Each of them had two sweet potatoes and a bowl of millet porridge.

When Mr. Wang saw that the two of them had woken up, he smiled and said, “Come and eat.”

After Xiao Sheng sat at the table, he immediately asked with concern, “Mr. Wang, how many pounds did you collect last night?”

When Mr. Wang heard this, he replied in embarrassment, “I only collected 780 pounds last night.”

Mr. Wang recalled that before he set off last night, he had confidently said that he could gather enough, but now, he was still a few hundred kilograms short! The key was that his second son and wife knew. Mr. Wang was so worried that his second son and wife would cause trouble that he didn’t sleep well last night.

Although it wasn’t the amount they had expected, the gains from this trip weren’t small. More than a thousand pounds of flour was enough to last the food factory for a few days, so Yu Bing smiled and said, “It’s fine. I’ll calculate the money for you first.”

After breakfast, Yu Bing began to settle the bill for Mr. Wang. The old man’s 500 pounds, plus the 780 pounds from last night, made a total of 1,280 pounds of flour. Yesterday, they had already paid for the 1,000 pounds of flour. The price of the additional 220 pounds was 57.2 yuan, plus the labor fee of 7.8 yuan.

Yu Bing took out 65 yuan from her bag and handed it to Mr. Wang.

To old farmers like them, who had been digging in the soil their entire lives, just these hard work fees would take them a month or two to earn. But he earned this in one night!

Mr. Wang had earned a total of 137.8 yuan from the flour and hard work fees. Looking at the money in his hand, he was a little excited. His grandson was saved!

All they had to do next was wait. They couldn’t set off until everyone was at work. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if people saw them. Therefore, the three of them moved all the flour to the wheelbarrow first.

Mr. Wang still remembered the chestnuts he had promised Yu Bing yesterday, so he brought two large handfuls over. Yu Bing used the excuse that they were too heavy to stop Mr. Wang.
