Widow Lee, who was in the middle of pouring water, was startled upon hearing Zhao Jinbao's words. He thought that he had heard wrongly, and turned his head to look, only to realize that Zhao Jinbao was looking at him.
”Jin Bao, did you just say something?” Widow Lee asked uncertainly.
”That's right. I say, our family has finished watering. Your family still has quite a few left, how about I help you pour water as well!” Zhao Jinbao repeated himself.
This time, the Widow Lee heard it clearly, but she never thought that Zhao Jinbao would actually take the initiative to offer his help. In this summer's time, the temperature under the sun was at least 389 degrees. If not for the fact that she was afraid that the corn seed would be dried in the sun, she would not have come out to water, much less hope that someone would be willing to help her.
”Entering the treasure? Are you really going to help me pour water over it?” Widow Lee asked uncertainly.
”What's wrong?” Aunt Lee, is that not okay? ” Zhao Jinbao asked curiously.
Widow Lee laughed awkwardly. She did not know what to say and stuttered: ”Then … Entering treasure ah, the weather is hot, don't turn around to heat you again, I don't want to explain it to your mother! ”
”It's alright, Aunt Lee, I am young and strong. If it's really hot, I will stop!” Zhao Jinbao chuckled, then walked to Widow Lee's side, picked up a ladle from the ground, and poured some water into it.
Widow Lee looked at Zhao Jinbao, and did not know what to say, but with his own progress, he would definitely not play at night. With Zhao Jinbao's help, of course it would be good news, so he did not reject, but she repeatedly warned Zhao Jinbao to stop immediately if he felt uncomfortable, and not to have sunstroke.
He worked continuously under the sun for more than two hours, and when it was almost four or five o'clock, he finally finished watering Widow Lee's house. During this time, Widow Lee rested several times, but Zhao Jinbao did not stop at all, picked up the water, watered the water, worked extremely hard, and did not feel any fatigue. He knew that it was definitely because of the golden stone that he did not feel any discomfort while he was under the sun.
She never thought that Zhao Jinbao would actually work so hard to help her. In the entire village, there were many people who wanted to sleep with her, but there was not a single person who was willing to do something for her, which was why she would rather be a widow than continue living.
In today's Zhao Jinbao, he could once again feel that there were people who treated his sincerely. In their hearts, they were happy, but at the same time, they were also a little disappointed. He was a widow, and the other party was an eighteen or nineteen year old youngster.
Looking at Zhao Jinbao's back that was drenched in sweat, Widow Lee suddenly felt her cheeks burn.
”Aunt Lee, the water has been poured over. After a night's time, these corn seedlings will recover!” After he finished watering the last row of corn, Zhao Jinbao put down the ladle in his hand and walked towards Widow Lee with a smile.
When Widow Lee saw Zhao Jinbao walking over to her, he immediately calmed himself down and straightened his face, saying: ”Jin Bao, I really have to thank you today. You also know that there isn't a man in my aunt's house, there are a lot of things that I can't do without your help, if not for you today, I think these seedlings would have all died from drought!”
