Ma Cuihua groaned continuously, worried constantly that Lu Yun would let go and drop her into the water channel, while at the same time enduring the persistent pokes from the dogtail grass in his hand. It was truly unbearable—on several occasions, she longed to kick Lu Yun right off his feet, yet she feared that if she fell into the channel, water leeches would burrow into her and reach the Water Curtain Cave. Then, even with a hundred pairs of shoes, there’d be no way to shake those leeches out. She was as frightened as if she’d been drenched in oil. Lu Yun waved the dog's tail grass and asked. Upon hearing that things had turned around, Ma Cuihua couldn't help but eager to go up, quickly nodding and saying, "Of course! As long as you pull my aunt up, she'll never bother you again." Hmph—didn't Little Brother really fear you causing trouble? If it weren't for the worry of getting into trouble with Uncle San and Aunt San, and making them feel uneasy, he'd have kicked you right into the river to feed the leeches already. "That's exactly what you said yourself! How could you possibly deceive a child?" Lu Yun chuckled, bending down and pulling Ma Cuihua up. "Oh! You're so slow! My chest—!" Ma Cuihua wailed like a ghost, clutching her chest tightly after landing, gasping in pain, her eyes blazing with anger, fixed firmly on Lu Yun. Lu Yun smiled and said, "Don't be so hot—underneath, children don't grow hair at all." Indeed, Lu Yun's words made a difference. In rural areas, a lack of hair on the lower body is considered highly auspicious—especially in some cities, where a woman without hair there is often seen "That's none of my business," Lu Yun said, acting as if it didn't matter at all. With the dogtail grass that had been bothering Ma Cuihua for so long now tucked between his teeth, he picked up his pants from the ground and prepared to walk into the cornfield home. "Wait a moment," Ma Cuihua suddenly spoke up as Lu Yun was about to leave. Lu Yun stopped and turned, smiling, "What now? Does Ma Cuihua expect me to stay and watch you lose your hair?" Ma Cuihua blushed, saying, "You've been bothering me for so long now—I've even turned my water into oil. Surely, you should find a way to stop this by now?" "Reliant on this old lady, just pulled up from the riverbank, she's still dead set on having me poke her once more. Land Yun glanced at Ma Cuihua with a sideways smile, saying, 'Cuihua Aunt, didn't I already tell you before? If I'm to resolve this matter, I'm already out of the running—after all this time of your fussing, I've long since lost the will. But there are plenty of corn cobs in the cornfield. You just pick a few, sit down, and poke them around—how much better would that be than my big stick?' Ma Cuihua spat, 'Nonsense! How can you possibly use something so fuzzy? I specifically liked your big stick. And now, don't you feel the same discomfort yourself? At least this early in the morning, it's quiet—let's each get what we need. Shall I help you release that pressure?" "Speaking, she stepped forward and reached out to grab the still-energetic cudgel that Lu Yun hadn't yet ceased swinging. Lu Yun darted aside, laughing, "Well, let's just call it a day. I'll keep it for when no one's around and I can handle it myself. The oil from Cuihua's side is so rich and heavy—it's almost overwhelming. I'm afraid I simply won't be able to bear it." Ma Cuihua blushed at Lu Yun's words. All the water that had flowed from her lower body wasn't just due to Lu Yun's persistent efforts; now, with him playing such a clever game, she felt completely flustered. Her heart and spirit were fully stirred, yet she wanted to just brush past him and leave—where was the luck in that? Blocking Lu Yun's way, Ma Cuihua said, "How can you say you won't be able to bear it? All this oil—what's it come from, if not you? Since it's your doing, you must be the one to take responsibility for helping me stop the flow. If this keeps going, what if something happens to me? Will you then be able to bear the responsibility?" "Hey, it seems this old lady's determined to play hard to get. Lu Yun silently glanced at Ma Cuihua, then strode steadily into the cornfield, vanishing within moments. Ma Cuihua grew anxious and hurried after him. Fortunately, this time Lu Yun didn't intend to evade her. After chasing for several dozen meters, she finally caught sight of him. She quickened her pace and called out, "Xiao Yun, wait for me a moment, please! Don't go yet!" Lu Yun paused, checking the corn stalks beside him, waiting for Ma Cuihua to catch up. Ma Cuihua panted hard, finally reaching him, breathless, "You're going so fast—what's the hurry? Even if you delay a bit, you won't miss your school time. I've already timed my wait precisely when I was standing outside your house..." Lu Yun wiped her brow, realizing how thoroughly this elderly woman had prepared to make it count. Turning around with a bright smile, she said, "Cuihua Aunt, today I'm truly not going to let you off this time. How about I make you wait next time when I return? I'll settle all the losses I've incurred with you at "Ma Cuihua frowned and said, 'It doesn't make sense. Why can you criticize Shu Fen and Xiing Ying so much, yet treat me so unfairly? You yourself have such a strong, firm erection—doesn't that make it uncomfortable for you?' Lu Yun chuckled and replied, 'It's quite uncomfortable, but I'm afraid you'll take advantage of me. Whenever I manage to insert myself, I worry that you'll find a way to snap it off. Then I'd truly become the first eunuch in our village.'" "Lu Yun's point isn't entirely without merit. Just now, Ma Cuihua was as fierce as a mother tiger. Now, although it seems there's no immediate danger, who knows if she might suddenly change her mind later? Ma Cuihua hurried to say, "How could that be? Auntie is only trying to scare you a bit. If she truly makes you a eunuch, how would I ever manage to be a real woman myself? Little Yun, just now, your dogtail grass really made Auntie miserable—so I borrowed your big stick to use!" ... Rural Beauty 733, Main Text 733, Turning Point Updated!
