When they were almost at the supply and marketing cooperative, Ye Zhicheng considerately bought two bottles of canned fruit, one for Fan Huifang and one for Shen Xiaobei.
Canned fruit is not cheap, two bottles cost one dollar and fifty or sixty cents.
It was their first meeting, and Fan Huifang felt embarrassed to let Ye Zhicheng spend money, so she asked him to return her bottle.
Ye Zhicheng refused and insisted that she eat before going back.
After Shen Xiaobei took the can, he was not as polite as Fan Huifang.
If she hadn't intentionally created an opportunity for them to be alone together today, how could they be as sweet as they are now?
So, she ate happily and told Fan Huifang not to be polite and just eat!
Fan Huifang didn't eat in the end because she felt embarrassed to let Ye Zhicheng watch her eat, and even more embarrassed to share a can of food with Ye Zhicheng.
So, just stay with him and don’t eat, so that both of us can feel more comfortable.
She held the can of fruit in her hand all the way back to the Baiju Brigade.
After arriving at Baiju Brigade, Ye Zhicheng wanted to formally introduce Fan Huifang to his parents, saying that he had chosen her today!
But Fan Huifang felt that it was too fast and wanted to wait a while before making their relationship public.
Ye Zhicheng respected her opinion and made an appointment with her to meet next time. Then the two of them reluctantly parted ways and went back to their respective homes.
On the way back to the educated youth site, Fan Huifang began to tell Shen Xiaobei the doubts in her heart: "Xiaobei, you deliberately avoided me today, didn't you?"
"Nothing can be hidden from my intelligent and kind-hearted sister Huifang!"
"Xiaobei, you didn't even know Teacher Ye before. How can you be sure that you won't fall in love with him after meeting him? What if—"
"If I also fall in love with him, then I'd be at a loss, right? Okay, Sister Huifang, there are everything in this world, but there are no ifs! Let's not make assumptions about things that haven't happened, okay?"
"Mr. Ye is a really good man, but I know he's not my type!"
"So what's your cooking like? Tell me about it!"
"My dish... hasn't even appeared yet, how can I even tell you about it? I'll tell you when it shows up!"
"Xiaobei, you're clearly just trying to fool me!"
"I'm really not being perfunctory, Sister Huifang! You should know about love. It doesn't follow common sense at all. Sometimes you meet it and it's just a chance encounter. Sometimes you don't meet it and it's not. How can you describe it in a specific way?"
"Okay, Sister Huifang, let's not talk about the love life of a single person like me for now! Seriously, are you and Teacher Ye planning to actually date? The kind with marriage as the prerequisite?"
Shen Xiaobei put away his joking tone and looked at Fan Huifang seriously and asked.
"I just met him today and we don't know each other very well. Isn't it too early to talk about marriage?"
"It's a little early, but think ahead, what aspects do you need to consider if you marry him?"
"For example, after marriage, will you live with his family, in the production team or the commune? Will he voluntarily hand over his salary to you in the future?"
"When you have children, who will take care of them? How will you divide the work? And whose house will you spend Chinese New Year at? Also, if you have a conflict with his family in the future, what will be his stance? And other practical issues."
"Sister Huifang, I think you should try to communicate and understand Teacher Ye clearly in the early stages of your relationship so that you can have a better understanding of the situation!"
"Look at Kong Wanwan and Du Wenli's marriage. How can it be like a loving and sweet newlywed couple? We just don't want to say it out loud. In fact, everyone knows that their marriage is not rational at all!"
"I bet they'll both regret marrying each other in the future! Maybe Du Wenli is already regretting it now!"
"Xiaobei, you don't even have a boyfriend, how do you know so much about love and marriage? I haven't even thought about it that much!"
Fan Huifang was shocked by what Shen Xiaobei said, which made her understand things in advance.
She always believed that she was three years older than Shen Xiaobei and more mature than her.
But at this moment, she felt that Shen Xiaobei treated matters of the heart much more comprehensively and long-term than she did.
She hadn't thought about any of what she said, but she just felt that her personality was quite compatible with Ye Zhicheng's.
"You've never eaten pork, but you've never seen a pig run!"
"I grew up in a blended family. My dad's marriage to my stepmother is like a mirror to me! So, naturally, I think more than you do!"
"But I think these are also things that every girl preparing to get married must think about in advance! This can also avoid these conflicts after marriage."
"Xiaobei, I've discovered that you're like a hidden treasure. You seem to have so many strengths waiting for me to discover! Tell me, how could I be so lucky to be able to live and eat with you in the countryside?"
Fan Huifang said such emotional words, which made Shen Xiaobei, who was also emotional, feel warm in his heart.
In the days when there are no relatives around and love is not sure when it will come, such friendship seems so precious.
She cherishes it from the bottom of her heart.
"Hehe, Sister Huifang, I feel embarrassed when you say that!"
"I feel very lucky to be able to live and eat with you in the countryside! Look at the four girls in our educated youth camp. Kong Wanwan is not to be mentioned. She took a liking to me the moment she arrived!"
"Xiao Li is too young, and I can't really talk to her about some things! If it weren't for Sister Hui Fang being here, I'd be so lonely here! I don't even have anyone to talk to!"
