Chapter 6: The Path to Success, Let's Begin!



Look at her expression, is she surprised?

Or perhaps they were at a loss, or perhaps they were furious and embarrassed?

It's like seeing something particularly beautiful and always wanting to reach out and poke it.

I thought about it, but I didn't do it!

In those days, everyone was very conservative, and if others saw it, it would be bad for the reputation of the young educated youth.

Chen Yifei unwrapped the White Rabbit milk candy, put it in his mouth and let it melt, the sweet aroma filling his entire oral cavity.

A slight smile played on his lips: "Comrade He Runqing, take good care of yourself!"

"If you encounter any difficulties, you can ask my second sister for help!" My second sister, Chen Xue, has a fiery personality and a strong sense of justice. Protecting her future sister-in-law will definitely not be a problem for her.

He Runqing stared blankly at his retreating figure, her feelings a mix of complex emotions, even a touch of confusion.

Wang Mei, a young girl from the same educated youth settlement, looked at He Runqing with some helplessness: "Qingqing, is it this kid who... ruined your innocence?"

"I heard he's a petty hoodlum, good-for-nothing. He's out riding his bike again. What good can he possibly do?"

Wang Mei felt sorry for her good friend, that a beautiful flower was about to be stuck in cow dung.

Talking about this matter is like a needle pricking He Runqing's heart, causing waves of pain.

"Yes, he's willing to marry me."

"Actually, Xiaomei isn't that bad... I feel that he's responsible and willing to take responsibility."

They're not as simple as everyone says, just petty thugs.

He's better than I thought.

I hadn't paid much attention to Chen Yifei's appearance before, but seeing him in these clean clothes today, and with his sunny smile, it's quite a sight.

Speak to her with respect.

At least, He Runqing is not disliked.

When this happened, He Runqing felt that his life was over.

To spend your life with someone like that...

But now, although she doesn't know Chen Yifei well, she knows that he's not a bad person.

At least, he was very good to her.

She didn't want a bride price, but he still insisted on giving her a three-wheeled motorcycle and a radio...

He Runqing knew very well that in this era, many city girls couldn't afford to get married, let alone Chen Yifei, whose family was not well-off.

He made this promise, and even if he can't keep it, you can still see his sincerity.

Actually, she doesn't care about these things at all.

Moreover, Chen Yifei already has someone he likes, so she doesn't expect him to like her back.

This marriage, perhaps it's okay to just make do...

Therefore, she felt somewhat lost.

Seeing her like this, Wang Mei felt a little sorry for her: "Now that you're getting married, the quota for returning to the city will be available. I also didn't get to be in this batch of returning to the city, so I can stay here with you."

"Hmm." He Runqing is slow-paced and speaks and acts gently.

"Can I give you a spot?" He Runqing asked, somewhat troubled.

“No.” Wang Mei pulled her to the educated youth settlement to fill out the form for giving up returning to the city. “I heard that Wang Jianshe has already been assigned to it.”

"His parents orchestrated this last time, saying he'd be the first to fill any vacancy. They're probably all waiting for this opportunity. They'd love for you to get into trouble!"

At this point, He Runqing remembered that Chen Yifei had said that they had both been framed.

It was because of the quota for educated youth to return to the city.

She thought it was an accident and didn't think much of it.

Even now, it seems strange; it's definitely not simple...

However, things have come to this point, and we can only find out what happened by waiting until their true colors are revealed.

He Runqing clutched the explanation he had written on letter paper explaining his decision to give up returning to the city; the paper was slightly wrinkled.

She had no idea what to do, so she decided to hold off on paying for now and instead took Wang Mei and went to the fields to earn work points.

Thinking that when Chen Yifei returned, perhaps he could ask for his opinion.

Although I met Chen Yifei... we've only just met.

However, He Runqing always felt that he could give her advice, and He Runqing himself did not even realize it.

She had developed an inexplicable attachment to Chen Yifei.

——

Chen Yifei walked along a winding road, which was full of gravel mixed with mud.

If he weren't a good cyclist, he would have fallen long ago.

The roads were muddy, and it was already midday when we arrived in the county town.

He recalled that in those days, street vendors usually set up stalls in places with lots of people and fewer checks.

As soon as they arrive, we can pack our things and run off with them.

He was fairly familiar with the county and arrived at the large square where he had made his fortune as a street vendor in his previous life. Sure enough, there were already quite a few people carrying large baskets, with many miscellaneous items scattered on the ground.

There were shops selling clothes, all trendy styles brought from Shanghai and Guangzhou, as well as jewelry and all sorts of miscellaneous items like enamel basins and thermos flasks... you name it.

He wandered around and his biggest discovery was... there was still no cooked food for sale!

There are many migrant workers in this county town, and many new houses are being built around the main square. Houses are being built in many parts of the county town, and there will be new developments in the future.

Chen Yifei noticed at a glance that among so many workers, including those doing odd jobs at the brick kiln, they all brought their own mixed grain buns and cold rice from home and ate them sitting on the ground.

State-run restaurants are too expensive! I can't afford them.

In any place or factory, only the factory's own employees can eat. Other casual workers, without a company, can only eat whatever they can find to tide them over.

Then he'll make something that will fill everyone's stomachs! Selling boxed lunches is definitely not realistic; not only can he not afford to sell them, but the workers also can't afford to eat them.

Therefore, Chen Yifei's first consideration was to keep costs low while still being able to make a living.

If you're making noodles, the first thing you need is money to buy the raw materials.
