Chapter 355: Arrogant Father Pei

Daegu is still quite cold in winter.

Pei Dongkui didn't stay on the balcony for long before walking into the warm living room.

He walked into the house slowly and just glanced at the sofa.

Pei Dongkui saw the little brat who was originally leaning on his eldest daughter's shoulder straighten his back instantly.

The corner of his mouth twitched. Was he that scary?

Pei Dongkui pretended not to see it and walked into the kitchen and asked:
"Mom, do you want me to go to the field and help you harvest the cabbages and radishes?"

When Lu Fuzhu heard what his son said, he knew what was going on.

How could a guy who usually just sits on the sofa suddenly take the initiative to find work to do?

He just wanted Zhaohuan to follow him and do some work to embarrass him.

Lu Fuzhu didn't point it out. She also hoped that the two of them would get closer, so she agreed:

"Then go collect them. I'll make pickles for you later."

"okay!"

When Pei Dongkui walked back to the living room, he deliberately raised his voice a little and said:

"Joo Hyun, I'm going to the fields to harvest some vegetables, you just rest at home."

He spoke very deliberately, fearing that Zhao Huan might not understand the meaning of his words.

Bae Joo-hyun pursed her lips tightly, afraid that she would laugh out loud.

It was the first time she saw her father's childish side.

Bae Joo-yeon was worried that Do-hwan didn't understand what she meant, so she made eyes to remind him.

There was no way Jiang Zhaohuan couldn't hear it, so he stood up and walked out of the house.

Sure enough, after changing my shoes and opening the door, I saw Pei Dongkui waiting for me at the door, pretending to tie his shoelaces.

But the shoes he wore were rubber shoes for working in the fields, and they had no laces at all.

"Uncle, let me help you."

Pei Dongkui did not fail to respond to him and nodded silently.

The two walked to the edge of the field together, and he looked at Zhaohuan's white shoes and said:

"Go get a pair of rubber shoes and put them on, or your shoes will be in a mess later."

"Okay, then uncle, please wait for me for a while."

Jiang Zhaohuan felt much more at ease after changing into rubber shoes and walking back to the fields. He had never worked in the fields before, so he pretended to be willing to learn and asked:
"Uncle, are there any tips for pulling radishes?"

"Of course there is."

Pei Dongkui didn't want to make things difficult for him, he just wanted to see if Jiang Chaohuan, who grew up in a big city and came from a wealthy family, was the type who could endure hardship and endure hardship.

If he showed that he disdained the countryside, even if his eldest daughter disliked him, she would stop them from continuing their relationship.

Pei Dongkui squatted down, loosened the soil around the white radish, and said:

"First, loosen the soil, then hold the radish leaf and slowly rotate it left and right, and finally use your strength to pull it up."

After he pulled out a white radish as a demonstration, he did not take any further action.

Jiang Zhaohuan understood what Pei meant and put on gloves and started to pull out radishes. According to what Pei's father said, he easily pulled out a white radish of good quality, which was quite big.

Having played farming games like Stardew Valley before, he is quite interested in rural life.

Today he finally harvested crops manually, which made him eager to try again.

Under Pei Dongkui's surprised gaze, Jiang Zhaohuan bent down without feeling dirty and started to pick the white radishes in the field. He pulled the radishes faster than the old hand.

This made Pei Dongkui a little impatient. After all, he grew up in the countryside, so how could he lose?
The two people, both of whom had a strong desire to win, began to compete in the world.

Pei Zhuxuan, who was lying by the window observing the dynamics of the fields, couldn't help laughing. She said:
"Zhu Yan, please prepare some plasters later. Dad is being stubborn again." "Oh my god, Dad doesn't even take care of his old waist~"

Young people naturally have good physical strength, not to mention Kang Do-hwan who is in great health and has perfect physical fitness.

He pulled out the carrots so quickly that he hardly had time to rest.

This also resulted in Pei Dongkui being unable to keep up with the speed no matter how hard he tried, and in the end he could only hold on to his old waist and admit defeat.

He nodded involuntarily, and was already feeling satisfied with his eldest daughter's boyfriend.

However, one thing alone cannot reveal a person's character. I will have to find a way to test his alcohol tolerance later.

It is said that the truth comes out when drunk, so he wanted to see what this kid would say.

Pei Dongkui watched as all the white radishes in the field had been pulled out, and then directed everyone to pick the cabbages.

The weight of the cabbage cannot be underestimated. He should be tired this time, right?
However, what Pei Dongkui did not expect was that Jiang Zhaohuan never complained of being tired during the farming period.

Even if he was sweating from doing physical work, he would just casually throw his expensive windbreaker aside, wipe the sweat off his face, and continue working.

This made Pei Dongkui feel a little guilty. After all, Do Hwan was also a guest, and it did not seem right to ask a guest to help with farm work.

He touched the tip of his nose awkwardly, turned around and went into the house. Under the strange gazes of his family, he took the initiative to wash some strawberries and brought a cup of thirst-quenching iced barley tea.

"Ahem, come and have some fruit."

Jiang Zhaohuan didn't expect that Pei's father would help him get fruits and tea while he was away.

He forgot that there was still mud on his gloves, and wiped away the sweat that was sliding down with a smile, baring his big white teeth:

"Yes, thank you, uncle!"

Bae Dong-gyu noticed the mud on Do-hwan's cheek and sighed helplessly.

Why does this kid look like the stupid son of a landlord?
Did he really not realize that I was making things difficult for him, or was he just pretending not to care out of politeness?

Pei Dongkui was a little helpless with Cho Hwan, so he took out a handkerchief and walked in front of him, with a stern face and an awkward tone:

"Wipe your face quickly, take off your gloves and wash your hands over there before you come back to eat."

"Yes, thank you for your concern, uncle."

Pei Dongkui's eyes widened. How could he care? Didn't this kid hear that I was disgusted by his dirty face and hands?

He curled his lips and said nothing more, but the satisfaction in his eyes could not be hidden.

Jiang Zhaohuan has already figured out Pei's father's character. If this awkward look isn't tsundere, what else could it be?
He lowered his head and smiled, and could feel that Father Pei was already half-approving of him.

After enjoying the sweet and sour strawberries and barley iced tea, Kang Cho-hwan continued to work in the fields.

After pulling out the radishes and picking the cabbages, they also turned the soil in the fields under the guidance of Pei's father.

After tilling the soil, the sunset made the sky a little dim.

Bae Dong-kyu didn't expect that Kang Do-hwan, who looked like he had thin arms and legs, had such good physical strength.

When I left the house, the sky was still cloudy and rainy, but when I got home, it had turned from cloudy to sunny.

He didn't continue to ask Zhaohuan to wash the vegetables, worried that his wife would blame him later.

Besides, Bae Dong-gyu has already half-recognized Do-hwan, and he feels a little sorry for the child who has to work in the fields for such a long time on his days off.

He glanced at Do Hwan who rolled up his sleeves and was about to come over to help, and said:
"Zhaohuan, go to the living room and rest."

Jiang Zhaohuan, who was originally planning to take a rest, gave up the idea after remembering Bae Juyeon's suggestion.

He smiled and shook his head to indicate that he was not tired.

"Okay, then come over here and I'll teach you how to pickle kimchi."

"Yes, please excuse me, uncle."
