Loved By An Older Man

1397 Didn’t Fancy Him

The villagers completely believed Jiang Yu’s words and did not pursue the matter further. Instead, they put the box away and said, “Jiang Yu, don’t worry. We don’t know anything else, but we do have some skills when it comes to planting crops. Although this is a flower, we used to grow poppies. There shouldn’t be any difference between the two, right?”

“There’s no difference. Just grow whatever you want. It doesn’t matter if you don’t feed them.” Jiang Yu said with a smile.

Chu Ran had walked over at some point in time. When she heard Jiang Yu’s words, her expression immediately turned ugly. “How is it unrelated?” She asked. “How much did these seeds cost? Not only were the seeds expensive, but there were also very few seeds. This was already the entire stock. If you can’t grow it, you have to compensate in full!”

This was the first time the villagers had seen Chu Ran. When they saw him standing behind Jiang Yu, they thought that he was one of Jiang Yu’s lackeys.

They had thought that this lackey’s personality would be the same as Jiang Yu’s and that he would be kind to others. However, she did not expect him to have such an attitude as soon as he opened his mouth to speak. Not only was she a little dumbfounded, but she was also a little stunned.

“Don’t listen to him,” Jiang Yu advised. “Just listen to me. It doesn’t matter if these flowers don’t grow well. I bought these just to cultivate my character.”

“How much did you spend on these seeds?” Chu Ran retorted loudly. “You spent so much money, but you told them that they could just take care of it? Then why did you spend that money?”

“I didn’t spend your money either. Don’t say anything.” Jiang Yu’s expression also turned cold.

“Me!” Although Chu Ran wanted to defend herself, Jiang Yu was telling the truth. Chu Ran had nothing to say and could only shut her mouth resentfully.

Jiang Yu said to the villagers, “Don’t worry about him. Just listen to me.”

As she spoke, she turned around and was about to leave when Zhou Yun stopped her. He swallowed the words “Master” and said, “Jiang Yu, you’re back. Aren’t you going to stay here for a meal?”

When Zhou Yun said this, the rest of the villagers also tried to persuade Jiang Yu to stay. They said, “That’s right, Jiang Yu. Stay for a meal. It’s not easy for you to come back.”

Before Jiang Yu could say anything, Chu Ran beat her to it. She said in disdain, “Why don’t you take a look at how dilapidated your village is? You still want us to stay here for dinner? What kind of food can you make? I don’t even need to look to know. Who would eat that kind of food? If you leave it by the roadside for dogs, they won’t even eat it.”

The expressions on the villagers ‘faces were very awkward. Each of them was more difficult than the other.

In fact, they also knew that the food in their village could not compare to the delicacies in the city. However, this was also a token of their appreciation for Jiang Yu. Now that they were being insulted like this, they felt very uncomfortable.

However, they had no choice but to admit that the words of this man with a sharp and mean attitude were the truth.

However, Jiang Yu did not speak up for Chu Ran. Instead, she spoke up for the villagers. “Chu Ran, you’d better stay by my side. It’s best if you know your place. Don’t say such things. They are the villagers who saved me before. You’d better treat them with more respect.”

“The person they saved was you, not me! It’s fine if you’re respectful to them, but why should I be?” Chu Ran gritted her teeth. “If you want to eat here, I won’t stop you. I won’t eat here anyway! I’m going back. If you want to go back, go back alone. Don’t expect me to go with you!”

After saying that, Chu Ran turned around and left, completely ignoring Jiang Yu who was behind her.

When the villagers saw this, they looked at each other. In the end, the old village doctor stood up and said to Jiang Yu, “Jiang Yu, why don’t you go back? The young man is right. The food in our village can’t be compared to the seafood and abalones in your city. It’s normal that you don’t like it.”

Jiang Yu frowned. Just as she was about to say, “That’s not the case,” the old village doctor said again, “Jiang Yu, it’s fine. We know that you don’t despise us. It’s enough for us to know your intentions.”

“That’s right, Jiang Yu. You should go back with that young man.”

Although Zhou Yun wanted to persuade Jiang Yu to stay, he was too embarrassed to say anything since the villagers had already said so. He could only stand at the side in silence.
