Her newly purchased phone seemed strange—she suspected it had somehow connected to the underworld, because everything she ordered was instantly delivered.

A month later, she sold off her as...

Chapter 18 The People's Eyes Are Sharp

She just doesn’t understand why Feng Feng is so contradictory?

To say he is a good father and a good husband is not the case.

Although you can say he is bad, he is not completely bad.

To Lu Lanlin, he was someone who hurt her over and over again, and healed her over and over again, in an endless cycle.

If you meet such a person, you will be driven crazy one day.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Lu Lan next door is steaming some buns to eat during the New Year, so she asked Feng Rongrong to bring two to her.

Feng Mian remembered that on the day they settled their affairs, Feng Mian took a lot of the family's food and gave it to the old lady Qian, leaving only a little over a kilogram for their family of three.

It weighs more than 100 kilograms. How can it be enough for a family of three?

Now that she had received two steamed buns from others, she also wanted to steam some.

Get some steamed buns and some dumplings.

Give gifts to grandpa and grandma.

Just do it.

I placed an order for flour and leavening agent for making dough.

It was a cold day and it was hard to get warm outside, so she gathered around the stove to warm it up.

He also washed the big pot, took out the bamboo steamer used for steaming buns at home, and boiled a large pot of water to clean it thoroughly.

She had just fetched a tank of water yesterday, and had used up most of it after washing and rinsing in order to steam the buns.

The buns were steaming, and the fire in the stove was almost lit, so she put out the flame and left them covered in the charcoal for a while.

Putting on non-slip rubber shoes, she carried a bucket to the village entrance to fetch water.

The wife of the team leader, Grandpa Feng Si, was washing kohlrabi next to her. People of Feng Mian's generation usually called her Grandma Si.

When I saw Feng Mian fetching water, I asked curiously.

"Mianmian, have you really found a young man who is willing to come to your house?"

"yes."

"Where are you from?"

"From Gujia Village."

"Are you from Gujia Village? Aren't you from the same village as Gu Xiaoliu?"

Feng Mian nodded and said, "They are from the same village. Aunt Xu said that the marriage was wrong. She was very embarrassed and insisted on introducing me to another one."

"She deserves it." The fourth grandmother said, "If she made a mistake, who would believe it? If she made a mistake for one or two days, how could she make a mistake for half a year?"

Feng Mian smiled faintly and said nothing, saying that the eyes of the masses are sharp.

You are wrong. Only a fool would believe this lie.

"You and Gu Xiaoliu have been talking about this for half a year, right?"

"Well, it's been about half a year."

"Tsk tsk, that family is so wicked." The fourth grandmother started talking and pulled Feng Mian to sit next to her.

Feng Mian thought, what will happen if I sit down? This fourth grandmother is a famous chatterbox in the village, a fighter of gossips, she can talk for hours without getting tired.

Feng Mian waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Fourth Grandma, I won't sit down anymore. I'm still steaming buns in the pot. The pot will dry up soon. I'll go back to get some water."

Fourth Grandma was quite disappointed, but her mouth was busy while she was fetching water.

"Hey, are Xiaomei and Gu Xiaoliu secretly attracted to each other?"

Feng Mian's mouth twitched, "How should I know this?"

"Of course, otherwise why wouldn't he marry her instead of you?"

Feng Mian smiled faintly and said nothing, then threw the other empty bucket into the well.

"I heard that the young man is from the family of a reporter from the Gujia Brigade. His family is very well-off. How did they choose you in the first place?"

Feng Mian held his forehead and said, "They didn't fancy me. They were wrong. They fancy my eldest cousin."

"Hey, is there anything you can't tell Grandma Four? How could you be wrong about this? It can't be wrong."

"That was because they made a mistake and later figured it out, so they came to cancel the engagement."

Feng Mian had already filled the other bucket with water.
