When Tang Baozhu heard someone knocking on the door, the face of the young girl's fiancé flashed through her mind instantly.

After all, besides him, she couldn't think of anyone else who would come looking for her.

Because the girl was pampered from a young age, she wasn't very popular in the village. The other girls in the village were jealous of her and wouldn't play with her. She also couldn't go outside to play with boys, so she grew up rather lonely.

She came out of the house, opened the door, and saw Li Jun outside. She wasn't surprised at all. No one else would come to see the little girl, and no one would care about her.

"Brother Li, what brings you here? Come in quickly, it's perfect that you're here, I have something to tell you."

Li Jun was also embarrassed to give the little girl a pearl flower in public, so he listened to Baozhu and went into the courtyard.

When Tang Baozhu was about to enter the house, she glanced around and saw that no one outside was paying attention to her. Even if they were, she wasn't afraid. They were engaged, so what was there to prevent them from seeing each other?

It's just that this place is too old-fashioned.

Once inside the courtyard, they went straight to the living room, with Li Jun following behind, looking like a timid wife, not daring to say a word.

Tang Baozhu brewed a cup of tea for Li Jun. The tea was, of course, from the space. Li Jun had been in the county town for two hours, so he didn't notice whether there was smoke coming out of the house and just let it pass.

"Brother Li, is there something you need from me today?"

Seeing that he finally didn't bring any pheasants, she breathed a sigh of relief. The last one she had thrown into her spatial storage had been dried by the robot.

Li Jun was no longer so excited and nervous. He handed the pearl hairpin he had been keeping very carefully to Baozhu. "I specially went to the county town to buy this. I thought it would look very nice on you, Baozhu. I hope you won't find it offensive."

Tang Baozhu felt that it was no big deal for engaged couples to exchange gifts, so she didn't refuse and accepted them directly.

"Thank you, Brother Li. It's kind of you to still think of me."

"You are my fiancée, it's only right that we be together."

Tang Baozhu thought about how the two of them, who were almost ready to get married, would have to postpone their marriage for another three years because of the death of the scholar's father. She wondered what Brother Li in front of her might be thinking.

“Brother Li, because of the mourning period, the wedding can only be held three years later. If you can’t wait, it’s okay.”

She turned her head to the other side, pretending to wipe her eyes with a handkerchief, but actually rolled her eyes so hard they were practically flying to the sky. She really wasn't suited to using such innocent terms.

However, the way the little girl looks makes these kinds of remarks particularly effective.

At the very least, Li Jun felt extremely distressed upon hearing these words and seeing the little girl's condition.

“Baozhu, please don’t say that. Brother Li is willing to wait for you. He would wait for you for as long as three years, let alone any other time. Please don’t cry. It hurts Brother Li’s heart.”

Tang Baozhu hadn't expected it to be so effective. She secretly glanced at him, her eyes filled with genuine heartache.

It seems this person is indeed quite good, and the scholar's father has a good eye for talent. I can then ask him to help me with this matter.

"Brother Li, thank you for being willing to wait three years."

When Li Jun saw that Baozhu had stopped crying, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Actually, he's not usually like this. He's quite shrewd in public, but he doesn't think that much in front of his fiancée.

“Baozhu, I haven’t seen any smoke coming from your kitchen all day. I was worried you hadn’t eaten, so I came over to check. If you don’t want to cook, I can cook for you. I’m pretty good at cooking. I know you’re sad because of Tang Xiucai’s passing, but you can’t go without eating. If you don’t mind, I can come and cook for you every day from now on.”

Tang Baozhu didn't think about anything else. She just felt that it would be good to cultivate their relationship over these three years. Although they were going to spend their whole lives together anyway, no one wanted to live a bad life if they could make it better.

"Wouldn't that be too much trouble for Brother Li? Brother Li has to go hunting, and I'm afraid it will take up your time. How about we just forget about it? I'm just not in a good mood these past few days and don't feel like eating. If I feel like eating in a couple of days, I can cook for myself."

Li Jun couldn't bear to see Baozhu not eat for two meals today and not want to eat dinner.

Thinking of Baozhu's delicate and frail appearance, he decided to be more considerate of her in the future, so that she wouldn't be bullied by others.

“Don’t worry, Baozhu. I’ve saved up some money from hunting all these years. I’m worried about leaving you alone, so I’m going to buy some land and rent it out to others. That way, I won’t have to worry about not making any money, and I’ll also have more time to spend with you.”

Tang Baozhu realized that Li Jun was indeed a good person. It seemed that the young girl in her previous life didn't like this tall and strong man from the bottom of her heart, so she never gave him a chance, which allowed the pretty boy and scoundrel to take advantage of her vulnerability.

Li Jun also felt that if he didn't keep a close eye on things last night, he would definitely be bullied by others.

Although he enjoys hunting and the feeling of running through the mountains, after going back last night, he thought about it for a long time and decided to go into the mountains less often in the future and take better care of his little sister Baozhu.

Tang Baozhu then took a good look at Li Jun. There was no trace of him lying. She had lived for so many years and her soul was particularly solid. Although she didn't have any special abilities, she could still sense a person's emotions. Li Jun was indeed not lying, and that was what he thought too.

"Then thank you, Brother Li. Since you also want to buy some land to rent out, my family happens to have 120 mu of land, which my father has already registered in my name. Could you please take a look? I'm afraid that after my father passes away, those who rent our land will take advantage of me because I don't know anything."

This is not Tang Baozhu exaggerating. In her previous life, she still had 50 acres of land. The farmers who rented her land often said that the land was plagued by various pests, but the young girl didn't know anything about it.

Her scholar father took too good care of her, making her ignorant of worldly matters. At least the fields of the pretty boy Li Fugui's family were not affected by pests. They just took advantage of her ignorance and let her cause trouble all by herself.

When Li Jun heard that Baozhu asked him for help, how could he refuse?

He nodded, indicating his agreement.

Worried that simply nodding wouldn't show his sincerity, he said, "Don't worry, Baozhu, I'll definitely take good care of you. Nobody will be able to bully you."

Tang Baozhu looked at him with eyes full of gratitude and admiration, making him feel like he was floating on air.
