Before Wen Xi's rebirth, she only knew that the world she lived in was a novel.
But she wasn't the female lead; she was just a passerby with few scenes. Her elder sister, while their ...
He had been dating his fiancée for two years and was about to get married when he fell for the gentle, beautiful, and charming Chu Wan'er at the last minute, and was captivated by her with just one look.
Fearing he would be single forever, he repeatedly went to his ex-fiancée to try and get back together. How could someone who was avoided by his ex-fiancée and whose reputation was ruined possibly marry Wen Xi?
Chen Dahua patted Qian Qiusheng on the shoulder. "Are you stupid? What women value most is how well a man treats her. As long as you treat her well, dowry and high demands don't matter. Besides, my reputation among mothers-in-law in the team is second to none. I never mistreat my daughter-in-law or granddaughter. How many mothers-in-law in the team are as good as me? In other words, if Wenxi wants to marry and live a good life, our family is the most suitable. And right now, you're the only one in our family who doesn't have a wife, so naturally she's willing to marry you."
Chen Dahua believed that she had never bullied her daughter-in-law and was a rare good mother-in-law in the world. She was sure that Wenxi would be willing to marry into their family.
Qian Qiusheng felt a surge of hope after hearing what Chen Dahua said. Who wouldn't want to marry a beautiful wife? Regardless of whether you like her or not, that's how marriage is these days. If you meet her once and think she's alright, you can get married that same month. If his fiancée hadn't been kept by her family for a couple more years because they thought she was too young, he probably would have a child by now. How could he have lost both his wife and his money?
Seeing Qian Qiusheng's expression, Chen Dahua knew that he was willing to marry Wenxi, so she reminded him, "Qiusheng, if you want to pursue Wenxi, take it slow and don't rush it. If you rush it, she will easily see through you. Get to know her slowly, and after a long time, she will fall in love with you. Even if she finds out, it won't matter. Besides, you are sincere to her and you are not deceiving her."
"Mom, how do I pursue Wenxi?" Qian Qiusheng asked, puzzled. He met his ex-fiancé through a blind date, not by pursuing him.
Chu Wan'er seduced him first, not the other way around. He still doesn't know how to pursue girls!
"Isn't Wenxi gathering pig feed? Every day before you go to work, take some time to help her gather pig feed. Once you're done, run away without saying anything, so she doesn't realize you're chasing her and scare her away," Chen Dahua instructed.
Qian Qiusheng listened and nodded thoughtfully. Thinking of Wen Xi, Qian Qiusheng felt that losing his fiancée and Chu Wan'er was nothing. These two women were not even worth a single hair of Wen Xi.
After the work bell rang, Wenxi didn't see Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue, but instead saw the postman. Thinking of He Chen'an, who wrote to her every day for fear that she would forget him, Wenxi felt guilty.
"Comrade Wen, there's mail for you. Please come out and sign for it," the postman called out from his bicycle towards the gate.
Wen Xi quickly went to the kitchen to make a bowl of sugar water, then brought it out and handed it to the postman, saying, "Comrade, thank you for making this trip in the middle of the day. Please have some water!"
At that time, the postmen were very conscientious and responsible. They rode bicycles, going from street to street, going everywhere, delivering mail as long as it was raining or snowing. They worked very hard.
"No trouble at all, no trouble at all. This is my job. Even if I didn't deliver it to Comrade Wen, I would have delivered it to other comrades."
The postman paused for a moment, then took the bowl and drank the water in it in one gulp. He was surprised to find that it was sugar water.
Wen Xi signed for the letter He Chen'an sent her and handed her reply to the postman so she wouldn't have to go to the post office anymore. She didn't have a bicycle, and walking to town was very tiring.
Especially now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, even if you go out early in the morning, you still feel burning hot and uncomfortable when you get to the town.
After the postman left, Wen Xi took the empty bowl and the letter back to the house. She went to the kitchen, sat down at the table, and opened He Chen'an's letter.
Unexpectedly, there were two sheets of paper inside. I really don't know where He Chen'an got so much to say, he actually wrote two whole pages. Although she was complaining in her heart, Wen Xi's face was beaming with joy.
This is the first time she has ever been in love in both her lives. Although it started inexplicably, Wen Xi now truly likes He Chen'an.
He Chen'an is good-looking, has a good job, and a high salary. His family, which can raise a doctor, must not be an ordinary family. So far, no character flaws have been found.
For example, being short-tempered, stubborn, or having violent tendencies.
None of these have been discovered yet, and for now, He Chen'an is truly the pinnacle of husbands.
As long as he is willing to go to Yanjing with her in the future, this man is not someone she can't marry.
After that, Wenxi began to read the letter carefully. Although it was long, the main idea was to show concern and give her advice, but there were no explicit words.
After all, letters are not very safe. If they are lost and picked up by someone else, it would not be a good thing for either of them.
Since we see each other often, we can just say what we can't say when we meet.
When Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue returned from work, their faces and bodies were covered in mud. Wen Xi guessed that they must have been weeding in the rice paddies, since it had been so long since the rice planting, and the rice seedlings in the paddies had long since begun to grow steadily.
They had to go to work in the afternoon, so the two of them didn't change their clothes. Instead, they washed their hands and faces and went to the kitchen to eat.
As Shen Jiaojiao ate, she sighed, "Tomorrow I can finally rest for a day. I'm going to sleep like a log."
We're not busy now, and we can rest for one day every two weeks, but it's on a rotating basis. After all, someone has to be on the farm every day so that we can know about anything that happens immediately.
"Aren't you planning to go to town for a treat?" Wenxi asked curiously. "You've already made quite a bit of money picking bamboo shoots, don't you want to treat yourselves? If you keep saving money, you'll end up not knowing who spends it."
If you don't treat yourself well while you're young, all your money will be spent on your family and children when you get married and have kids. You'll work hard for nothing and might not even get a word of thanks in return. So why not treat yourself well while you're young and make sure you don't have any regrets in life?
Shen Jiaojiao nodded, "We'll leave whenever we get up tomorrow. It's not that far anyway. If we're fast, we can make a round trip in less than three hours."
As for the "treating themselves to a good meal" that Wenxi mentioned, their living standards have risen sharply since they followed Wenxi. They have eaten plenty of chicken, duck, goose, pork, rabbit, fish, eggs, and tofu, and they eat different kinds of food every day. They don't crave meat at all, unless it is meat that they have never eaten before or rarely eat, then they will be interested in trying it.
