After returning home, Shen Lingling went to prepare a bath for Lu Wensheng as usual, but she was pushed back on the kang by her:
"Don't wash it today, tell me what Aunt Caifeng wants to dig you up!"
Shen Lingling visibly wilted after hearing this topic: "Ah! This is a long story..."
Hearing this, Lu Wensheng immediately took off his shoes and got on the kang. He then found a bunch of delicious food and put it on the kang table. While unpacking the food, he said:
"We have plenty of time in this long night, you don't have to keep your words short!"
Shen Lingling helplessly held her forehead: How could I forget that my little sister loves to watch the fun...
Little did they know that at this time, Ma Yingjie next door was also undergoing trial, but he did not receive such good treatment.
Meng Qingtang was leisurely sitting on the back seat of his bicycle eating peanuts, while Li Sihai turned his grief and anger into strength and pedaled his legs very fast...
Meng Qingtang estimated that if they continued at this speed, they would reach the county town soon!

"Tell me, what are you looking at me for?"
Lu Wensheng picked up an apricot and stuffed it into Shen Lingling's mouth: "Sweetie, speak quickly!"
Shen Lingling: ...
All right!
"Here's what happened. In the afternoon, Li Youliang came to call me and Lu Hao, saying that the village chief had told us to go to his house for dinner tonight.
Thinking it was okay, we followed them.
After that, Li Youliang took Lu Hao to Xiaoqingshan to trap pheasants, and Aunt Caifeng pulled me aside to ask questions.
Sometimes he asked me how I was doing, sometimes he asked me who was in my family, what my parents did for a living, what relatives I had, etc…
I was wary, thinking there must be something fishy going on. Their answers were ambiguous, and they even said that I was born with a heart disease that made me prone to illness and that I couldn't do heavy work.
Then she sighed secretly and said what a pity it was..."
Lu Wensheng concluded: "She likes you and wants you to be her daughter-in-law. I guess she told Li Zhenxing about it."
Shen Lingling nodded: "Yes! I guess so, because when she was cooking, she mentioned Li Zhenxing intentionally or unintentionally, and even told me that he only earned 45 yuan a month!"
Lu Wensheng smiled and nodded: "Well, what do you think?"
Shen Lingling: "What can I think? It's definitely not possible! I don't mean to look down on farmers, but my plan has never been to live in the village for the rest of my life.
Besides, I’m not really seventeen or eighteen years old. I have my own path to go and I still have to take the college entrance examination!
Otherwise I wouldn’t have said I had a heart disease…”
Lu Wensheng nodded: "Yes. Just think it through. If you don't mean it, just reject it clearly. You can't be ambiguous about this kind of thing. It's good to live for yourself!"
After a pause, he continued, "I think you still have to maintain your sickly persona, otherwise there will definitely be people in the village who are targeting you."
Shen Lingling smiled and said, "Just like when you first came here and pretended to sleepwalk?"
Lu Wensheng avoided his gaze, but still tried to argue: "I'm not pretending, I was really sleepwalking."
Shen Lingling nodded: "Yes, our Shengsheng is the most honest!"
Lu Wensheng: "No, why are you still cursing?"
Shen Lingling laughed, Shengsheng was right about her saying that she should live for herself!
"What if I get sick again tomorrow?" Shen Lingling asked tentatively.
Lu Wensheng thought about the plan for the next few days and nodded: "That's fine. When Xiao Mengzi comes back tomorrow, we will take turns to go to the mountain to collect mountain products, and you can handle it and cook at home."
Shen Lingling nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Seeing that Lu Wensheng had eaten a lot of snacks during this period of time, Shen Lingling noticed and quickly slapped the chocolate in her hand:
"Eat less. It's so late. Wash up and go to bed!"
Lu Wensheng: "Oh..."
Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty
Han Muchen learned from Lu Hao that Aunt Caifeng had taken a fancy to Shen Lingling.
"How did you know? Is the information reliable?"
Ma Yingjie nodded confidently: "It's absolutely reliable. This is what Li Youliang told me. He overheard my eldest brother talking to his mother a few days ago, saying that he wanted to marry Sister Shen to Li Zhenxing."
Han Muchen's face was gloomy: "The one from the glass factory?"
Ma Yingjie nodded: "Yes, yes, yes! But..."
"But what?"
Ma Yingjie thought about it and decided to tell the truth: "Someone said that his second brother is a little... a little cunning.
He often suffered when he was young. I think he is just like what Sister Lu said about black sesame filling. He looks like a good person, but he actually has a black heart. "
Han Muchen sneered: "He doesn't look like a good person. That's not black sesame filling, it's a black sesame ball!"
Lu Hao: ...
He didn't dare to refute, Brother Chen is so scary now~
"but……"
"But what? Can you please finish your words at once?" Han Muchen really wanted to beat him up.
“But someone said that her mother seemed to dislike Sister Shen for being a sickly girl, and she hasn’t decided whether to let the second brother marry her.”
Upon hearing this, Han Muchen quickly ran out of the house. He had to find Shen Lingling!
"Brother Chen, where are you going in the middle of the night?" Ma Yingjie shouted from behind.
"I'm not going out. You go to sleep first."
"oh……"
He stood in the yard for a while, and when he saw the lights next door, he decided to wait. If Shen Zhiqing didn't come out, he would tell her tomorrow. If he did...
He hasn't figured out what to say if he comes out...
Oh, it’s so annoying!
Fortunately, after waiting for a while, the people next door blew out the lights and went to sleep. I thought Shen Zhiqing would not come out. I felt disappointed but also a little relieved.
Fortunately, she didn't come out, but disappointed that she didn't come out~
"Brother Chen, what did you do when you went out?"
When Han Muchen came back, Lu Hao had already spread out the bedding for the two of them and was sitting on a small stool soaking his feet. When he saw him come back, he asked with a little concern.
Han Muchen sat down opposite him without saying a word, put his feet in the basin, and just sat there blankly.
