Hearing her say that, the women breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he felt somewhat guilty, he treated Lin Yu even better.

I chatted with her the whole way, telling her who in the brigade was not to be trifled with and to be careful.

As they talked, the conversation turned to gossip: whose daughter-in-law was cheating on her husband, whose daughter was pregnant out of wedlock, whose old lady was stealing...

Lin Yu was stunned.

She was very cooperative; whenever someone said a few words, she would chime in with, "Really?"

"I see."

"Then what?"

The older women had never encountered such flattery before; before they knew it, they were exaggerating the gossip.

Even the eldest daughter was completely engrossed in listening.

She doesn't go out often and had no idea such a thing existed.

Da Niu admired Lin Yu so much. She had only known these older women for a short time, but she had already made them all happy.

Let them watch the show.

Of course, the phrase "eating melon seeds" was only in Lin Yu's mind.

She felt that having some sunflower seeds would be very helpful, as it would be more interesting to listen to gossip while eating sunflower seeds.

She rolled her eyes, reached into her pocket, and grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds.

Not much, just a small handful, since her pockets weren't very big, and taking too much would have given her away.

She then distributed this small handful to several older women, giving a few to each of them, and also gave some to Da Niu.

The girl was very surprised; she actually carried sunflower seeds in her pocket when she went out.

And these sunflower seeds, how come they taste so good?

She'd never tasted such fragrant sunflower seeds before.

I don't think I have any at home.

Several elderly women, after cracking open some sunflower seeds, asked, "Where did these sunflower seeds come from? They smell so good. I'll save one for my grandson."

Lin Yu offered his own explanation: "I brought these from Haicheng. They are spiced melon seeds. I also have spicy and creamy ones. I'll let you try them next time."

Eating sunflower seeds together can bring people closer, so Lin Yu definitely needs to cultivate good relationships with these older women.

Don't be fooled by their seemingly idle nature; they possess intelligence about the entire village.

They know exactly what's going on in everyone's family.

It's just some gossip, and its authenticity remains to be seen, but it's still something to listen to, isn't it?

When the older women heard that it was Haicheng, they became interested. "You're from Haicheng? A big city! I've never left our mountainous province in my entire life."

Lin Yu nodded, "Yeah, Haicheng is pretty big, but there's not much to do there. Our brigade is much more fun."

The older women didn't think so; they believed that big cities were definitely better than their small town.

However, the fact that the child said that means she agrees with the brigade.

The older women were quite pleased and asked curiously,

"What's Haicheng like? Can you tell us about it?"

Even Da Niu looked at Lin Yu at this moment, and it seemed that they were all very interested.

Lin Yu tried her best to describe it to them, "Haicheng is by the sea, so there's a lot of seafood. The city has many small houses, crowded with people. And..."

Although everyone couldn't quite imagine what Haicheng was like, they learned some interesting things from Lin Yu's description.

This girl is someone I could date!

An older woman even opened up to her, asking, "Why don't you stay in Haicheng and come to our little place?"

The question was somewhat offensive, but Lin Yu could sense that the other person cared about her and felt that it would be better for her to stay in Haicheng than to come back.

She just smiled and said, "I want to find my biological parents, and I don't think our place is any worse than Haicheng. I really like our brigade."

The people on the bus who heard her words all thought she was a really good girl.

They gave up their life in the big city of Haicheng to come to this rural area to find their biological parents, and they didn't mind the backwardness of this place at all.

"You're such a good child."

"What a good girl."

"..."

Lin Yu was overjoyed by the praise, and even after the car started to leave, she was still joking around with the older women.

The eldest daughter listened with great interest.

She didn't know these older women at all.

She'd only been out with her sister for a short while today, and she already knew which old lady's husband had smelly feet, which old lady's daughter-in-law had a sweet tooth, and she'd also found out that Aunt Liang's future daughter-in-law was quite capable...

...

"Wait for me, wait for me."

"Ox cart, wait for me."

They hadn't gone far when someone caught up with them.

Aunt Liang peeked out and said, "Oh, it's Bai Zhiqing. Why didn't you come sooner?"

The young man named Bai, panting, finally climbed onto the oxcart.

Lin Yu looked at the young man and realized that he was not the same person who had been on the same bus as her; she had no recollection of him.

She looked just like those pure and innocent beauties of later generations; she was beautiful, and her clothes were very new, so it was clear that she came from a well-off family.

She was quite polite; as soon as she got in the car, she apologized to them, "I'm sorry, I was a little late today and made you wait."

The women were not difficult to deal with, and they all accepted her suggestion with a smile.

Once Bai Zhiqing was settled, she noticed there were two other girls on the bus. "Hello, my name is Bai Muyun."

Lin Yu greeted her with a smile, "My name is Lin Yu."

"My name is Lin Danu."

Bai Muyun sat down next to them and said, "Hello."

Aunt Liang looked at them and said, "These three girls are all quite pretty."

The older women also admired the three flowers.

Bai Muyun and Da Niu were both a little embarrassed, but Lin Yu was particularly proud, thinking that they were all right.

She's just beautiful.

From a young age, everyone praised her for being cute and pretty.

There used to be kids who would pester their parents to give them a younger sister like Lin Yu, and when they were refused, they would even try to steal Lin Yu home.
