The New Year is approaching, and the atmosphere in the village is different.

Whether rich or poor, everyone attaches great importance to the Chinese New Year.

This year, because of collecting herbs, every family has more income, so more people go to the commune to buy New Year's goods.

Uncle Li drives the ox cart back and forth several times a day.

Qin An Ning was going to visit her uncle, and Meng Yu and Wu Yanli were also going to buy New Year's goods. They were going to take a bus together and happened to meet Lin Erbao and his mother.

Lin Erbao wanted to say something several times but stopped himself. If he didn't say anything, Qin An Ning would pretend not to see it.

After getting off the bus at the commune, Lin Erbao finally couldn't help it and stopped Qin An Ning who was about to leave.

"Qin Zhiqing, can we go to the side and talk for a few words?"

Qin An Ning signaled Meng Yu and Wu Yanli to wait for her for a while, and walked a little further away from Lin Erbao.

Lin Erbao's face was full of confusion, and he hesitated for a long time without saying a word.

Qin Anning had to take a bus later and didn't have time to waste with him. "If you don't tell me, I'm leaving."

"Wait, Qin Zhiqing, I want to ask Qi Shuyue, she, she..."

Lin Erbao has never believed it since he learned about Qi Shuyue and Xu Jiacheng. In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t believe it, he is just deceiving himself. Such a beautiful girl must have been forced by Xu Jiacheng.

He didn't like the girl his mother arranged for him, and always felt that she was not as good as Qi Shuyue in any way.

And just like that, the marriage didn't happen.

Today his mother actually took him to look at things at the supply and marketing cooperative. When buying things, everyone took a look first and then took the next step if they thought it was okay.

The second baby's mother came up with this trick because she was at her wit's end. She tried hard to find a matchmaker to introduce him to her, but in the end it didn't work out.

If the news of seeing each other too many times gets out, it will be even more difficult for Lin Erbao to get married.

Qin An Ning sighed and said a few words for the sake of him being Lu Cheng's friend.

"You know what happened with Qi Shuyue and Xu Jiacheng. If you say it was an accident caused by drunken sex, and you can accept it, then it's nothing.

But now Qi Shuyue has escaped from the labor camp, and it is not certain when she can be found.

Even if it is found, she will definitely be severely punished for her behavior. I don't know how long she will be in labor reform.

You can not care about anything because you like it.

But some practical issues have to be considered. For example, if you want to be with Qi Shuyue, how are you going to get through the hurdle at home?

Can you accept the rumors in the village?

Another point is that Qi Shuyue has been sent to labor reform and has a criminal record. From now on, your children will not be able to serve in the army or become workers, and will have to farm in the countryside for the rest of their lives.

When you see other children succeeding while your own child is nothing, will you regret it?

If you think none of these matter, then just stick to your love.

Lin Erbao, you are an adult, you should think carefully before making a decision."

After saying that, Qin An Ning left, leaving Lin Erbao alone to think about life.

Let him choose whether to stick to his temporary love or accept the cruel reality.

That wasn't her concern.

The three of them arrived in the county and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. Coincidentally, Aunt Pei was also there.

There was a person who was not very familiar with her following her.

"My girls, you are here to buy things too." Aunt Pei greeted the three people enthusiastically when she saw them.

"Aunt Pei." The three of them greeted her.

Aunt Pei smiled so hard that her teeth showed and her eyes could not see. "Didn't I tell you three to come to my house to play? Why didn't you come? It's a coincidence that we met today. Let's go to my house and visit later.

Come, come, let me introduce you to my oldest son, Pei Qian, a soldier."

Pei Qian nodded, "Comrade Qin, nice to meet you again."

Aunt Pei looked between the two of them in surprise, "Do you know each other?"

"While on a mission, I met Comrade Qin and his team who were helping me find the child, and we had some contact." Pei Qian selectively spoke about this.

When Aunt Pei heard this, she liked Qin An Ning even more. It was a pity that she already had a boyfriend. She glared at her silly son and pulled Meng Yu and Wu Yanli to chat.

Qin An Ning knew what Aunt Pei was thinking, but didn't stop her.

No one can predict the fate of a couple. Maybe if they just like each other, they will become a perfect match.

Meng Yu also remembered that Aunt Pei had mentioned finding a daughter-in-law last time. After a few words, she said she had to go shopping and would talk about it next time.

But Aunt Pei was too enthusiastic. She took Meng Yu's hand and said, "Auntie, I want to buy something too. Let's go together."

The more she looked at the girl, the more she liked her. She was heroic, unpretentious, and patient when talking to the elderly.

It was New Year's Day and there were a lot of people in the supply and marketing cooperative. Aunt Pei was unwilling to give in, so she pulled Meng Yu and squeezed in.

Pei Qian frowned and stared closely, fearing that his mother would fall if she wasn't paying attention.

He couldn't understand his mother's idea. His brother said to just buy the things back and there was no need for his mother to come.

His mother disagreed, saying it would be more fun if he bought it himself.

If Qin An Ning knew what Pei Qian was thinking, she would definitely say, how can a straight man understand the joy of women shopping?

Qin An Ning went to the ready-made wardrobe counter. Since her uncles' new clothes were not suitable for the New Year, she planned to buy them three sets of underwear so that they could wear them inside.

After paying and getting the clothes, Qin An Ning squeezed out and was about to look for Meng Yu and the others when she saw two people fighting at the food counter for some unknown reason after a loud curse.

Aunt Pei was pushed by someone else, and Meng Yu hurried to support her, but because there were so many people around, she tripped and fell backwards.

A long arm came from behind and embraced Meng Yu in his arms.

"Are you okay?" A deep and pleasant voice sounded above my head.

Meng Yu quickly withdrew from Pei Qian's embrace and stood up with a red face. "I'm fine."

Qin An Ning noticed that Pei Qian's ears had also turned red. She raised her eyebrows. Are these two really going to have a relationship?
