Chapter 323: It Means I Would Only Get Bath Water For The Woman I Am Interested In
"Mm." Yan Molun nodded once again and he said honestly, "You do need a shower. You smell quite bad."
Jiang Duoyao was just feeling a little touched when his words made her gnash her teeth in anger immediately. "It seems like I smell so bad that you can’t stand it and even want to help me get some water. I’ll really have to thank you then."
"You’re welcome." When the corners of Yan Molun’s lips curled up, he looked somewhat satisfied.
Jiang Duoyao went back to class after finishing her drip in the afternoon. Yan Molun took some buckets and asked the villagers to find out where to get water. He managed to find his way there and it was really a very long and difficult journey. He took around 40 minutes round trip, which was considered fast.
…
Jiang Duoyao ended class at around 4 pm and ran into Luma’s mother, who came to pick up her child. Luma’s mother said to her with a smile, "Teacher Jiang, your boyfriend is really good. He asked me where to get water today and I saw him going again after bringing water back just now. He’s too impressive. The one back at my house can’t even make two round trips."
"He isn’t my boyfriend," Jiang Duoyao explained.
Luma’s mother smiled and waved her hand. "Even if he isn’t your boyfriend, you should really consider him. Us Tibetans have a saying that if you were to look for a man, he has to be strong. He really is very strong. Sang Hua from our village already set her eyes on him the first time she saw him yesterday. She really likes him a lot. However, she also knows he wouldn’t set his eyes on her. The difference between you and her is like comparing heaven and earth."
Jiang Duoyao’s jaw dropped. Sang Hua had her eyes set on Yan Molun?
This would probably be big news in the village. Although she hadn’t been here for long, she had seen that Sang Hua before. Although she was tan, she was considered one of the better-looking ladies in the village. It was said she was 18 this year but she looked more like 28.
"Teacher Jiang, in any case, remember my words. If you look for a man, he must be strong," Luma’s mother reminded her one more time before taking her child home.
Jiang Duoyao was speechless. However, she also found Yan Molun pretty hardworking. After all, it was tough work to carry water for 40 minutes round trip. At least she and Xiling couldn’t even finish one round. The villagers would also only help them get water once every two days at most, but he actually went on two trips in one afternoon. That really wasn’t easy.
Back at the dormitory, Xiling was boiling water. The vat in front of the door was half-filled. When she saw her walking in, Xiling quickly said, "Duoyao, my gosh, Yan Molun really went to get water."
"I know. He said I smelled too bad so he got me water to take a shower," Jiang Duoyao said with a sigh and pout.
"How nice." Xiling was about to die of envy. "I’m smelly too. I wonder if he’ll get me some water too."
Jiang Duoyao scratched her head. "Why didn’t you tell him that?"
At that moment, footsteps could be heard from outside the house. Soon after, someone kicked open the door lightly. Jiang Duoyao turned back and was stunned. She almost fell onto the chair behind her in shock.
She was in disbelief. This time, Yan Molun was actually carrying 4 buckets of water on his shoulders. There were two carrying poles, one on each shoulder, and on each end of the pole hung a bucket filled to the brim with water. She was about to kneel in admiration.
"Oh my god." Xiling was stunned too. "Don’t tell me you carried four buckets of water in one go?"
It wasn’t a short distance and took 40 minutes round trip. Besides, the road was rocky and steep.
"Mm." Yan Molun finally came in, placed the buckets down and carried three buckets in. "I’ll leave one for myself. You can use the rest to shower and wash your hair. I think it should be enough."
