Chen Xian woke up and became a 35-year-old widower in ancient Qingxia Village. His son and daughter knelt on the ground calling him father. In his previous life, he was in his early twenties, a sol...
Uncle Chen winked at Chen Xian.
Chen Xian immediately understood.
With a kind face and gentle tone, he said, "I am Chen Xian, the owner of a pig farm. The Chen family business is just starting out, so we don't need so many people. Please forgive us."
If more manpower is needed later, I guarantee that regardless of whether it's Qingxia Village, Hongye Village, or any other village, as long as they register, I will select the best candidates. I won't give preferential treatment to those from my own village while rejecting those from other villages.
Looking at the man with a faint smile on his face, Liu Quan suddenly felt that his attitude just now might have been too rude. He felt guilty and embarrassed in front of the boss.
The men watching felt a little better after that.
They pointed and gestured at Uncle Chen.
"Look at that boss's attitude, it's so much better than that old man's!"
Uncle Chen seemed not to hear the mockery, and the corners of his mouth pursed slightly.
The villagers of Hongye Village looked on with disdain. Good heavens, this old man was still laughing. His skin was really thick as hell.
We're praising the boss, what does that have to do with you?
What are you so smug about? Anyone who didn't know better would think I was praising you.
A man from Red Leaf Village looked at the two young women standing next to Chen Xian with a surprised expression. He opened his mouth, then lowered his head in shame.
She glanced up at Chen Xian, thinking, "This must be the man Liniang married."
It seems the two girls married well. Although they are a bit older, they are good-looking, with plump faces and fairer skin than other farmers. Looking at the bustling construction site, it seems this person is doing quite well in business.
They disappeared into the crowd.
Shuangshuang has sharp eyes; she caught a glimpse of the face in the blink of an eye. "Huh?"
"Sis, look! Whose back is that? It looks so familiar. Is it Uncle?"
Where?
Su Liniang was somewhat surprised, looking around at the man who had walked quite a distance away.
Shuangshuang shook her head.
"I don't know, maybe I saw it wrong."
Li Niang was lost in memories; she and Shuang Shuang were closest to their third uncle when they were children.
My third uncle was the king of the kids in the family. He would take the children to catch fish in the water, climb trees to collect bird eggs, catch pheasants in the wild, catch cicadas with lanterns on summer nights, have snowball fights in winter, and build cages to catch wild rabbits. But those were all things from when we were kids.
After my third uncle came of age, he married and lived his own life.
The third aunt was a feisty person. When they first got married, the third uncle would send food to the family whenever there was something good to eat. But after being scolded so badly by the third aunt, he never dared to send it again.
As I grew up, my memories of my third uncle gradually faded.
After that, rumors spread that he was a jinx and had a tough fate, and his third uncle dared not associate with his family anymore.
Shuangshuang frowned her pretty eyebrows, her porcelain-white cheeks pouting as she sighed, "It must be Third Uncle. He's probably just too embarrassed to see us..."
"I wish I could go back to when I was a child. I don't want to grow up at all."
"Actually, I don't want to get married. I want to learn to say no. I want to be unreasonable. I want to go crazy! I want to be a spoiled, crazy little kid forever."
"But, in the end, we can never go back."
At this moment, the girl's breath seemed to be tinged with sorrow, and sorrow was tangible here.
Su Liniang's eyes, which were as bright as stars, dimmed slightly.
"I don't know when it started, but as I grew up, I even started to pick a time to be sad."
Standing on high ground, Chen Xian looked down at the entire pig farm and watched the men enjoying the cool shade under the trees. His mind suddenly felt open and expansive, as if he could see the magnificent pig farms rising from the ground. He let out a rare, unrestrained laugh.
"Gentlemen, just wait and see. Within three to five years, Qingxia Village will become the most dazzling village in the entire Lushang County..."
"Oh my goodness..."
Standing on a high place, the brick slipped, and I almost fell on my butt.
"Ha ha."
Liniang and Shuangshuang couldn't help but laugh, but then they realized, why be pessimistic?
Compared to others, his fate seems pretty good.
My husband is kind and gentle, and treats his family with the demeanor of a true gentleman. He never forces me to do anything I don't want to do. The Chen family children are also very polite to me, calling me "Auntie" all the time. They are so affectionate.
Liniang and Shuangshuang exchanged a glance and smiled. Their crystal-clear teeth gleamed brightly in the sunlight, and their smiles were warm and unrestrained.
"Sis, getting married isn't so bad, hehe!"
"Sis, growing up isn't so disappointing, haha."
