"She never goes to anyone else's house, she only comes to mine. She's my girlfriend, and we're getting married soon. After the harvest, I'll invite everyone to our wedding banquet!"
Alright! Here comes someone eager to take on trouble!
When he heard the second half of the sentence, Feng Dabing was shocked!
What?! A boyfriend/girlfriend? Marriage?
Is this wolf cub kid kidding me?
No matter how beautiful Wen Zhiqing is, bringing her home is just asking to turn yourself into a widower.
Besides, how could this delicate and sickly Xi Shi withstand Yan Xiao's burly and strong build?
Bringing this home means you'll end up with a porcelain doll that you can only look at but never touch.
Thinking about how energetic that kid usually is when he works, he can earn ten centimeters in just a few hours, while others earn ten work points a day.
Feng Dabing shook his head repeatedly as he watched. While everyone was relieved to have one less troublesome person to deal with, they were all shocked that Yan Xiao had actually chosen a sickly man as his partner...
Yan Xiao pursed his lips slightly. He really had no eyes to recognize a gem. He should take this little darling home.
He simply gave a heads-up, and seeing that no one had any objections, he carefully carried the person in his arms and walked down the mountain.
Only then did everyone notice that he seemed to be holding something in his arms.
Seeing how he treasured it, everyone came to their senses, as if they had stumbled upon an incredible piece of gossip.
Could the person in his arms be that delicate young educated youth...?
A delicate, sickly beauty and a wolf cub are strangely and inexplicably well-matched.
...
After confirming the girl's whereabouts with everyone, Yan Xiao gently placed Wen Qinghe on the bed and covered her with the blanket she had brought the night before.
Because he had taken her out in a hurry last night, the little girl's delicate and pretty clothes were all soaked in water. After taking the little girl for acupuncture this morning, he asked Li Huaqing to look after her. He went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy the little girl many sets of comfortable pure cotton clothes, as well as new pure cotton quilt covers.
The little girl has delicate skin, so these clothes need to be washed before she can touch them.
Wen Qinghe's fever had subsided after the acupuncture treatment, but Li Huaqing said that he still needed to prepare a medicine for her to take back home so that the fever would not recur.
While the little girl was still asleep, he prepared to brew medicine, cook, and do laundry.
Despite the many tasks, he remained methodical and organized, as everything concerned the young girl's health and he didn't want to delegate any of them to others.
...
He boiled the medicine for an hour, but the little girl still hadn't woken up after the medicine had cooled down.
He had no choice but to hold her in his arms and carefully try to feed her a spoonful. But the little girl must have smelled it, because her delicate eyebrows furrowed and her lips pressed tightly together.
The man had no choice but to put a mouthful of medicine in his own mouth, cover it with her lips, and pry open her teeth to pass it over little by little.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he realized the little girl had swallowed.
The bitter taste in her mouth woke Wen Qinghe up.
Feeling unwell and weakened by illness, the little girl let out a pitiful whimper.
"Waaah, I told you I didn't want to drink bitter medicine..."
The man's low, husky voice coaxed, "Be good, Qingqing~ Just this once."
After saying that, he fed her another dose of medicine. This time he lingered a little longer.
As if not wanting to see her frown, he licked away all the bitterness from her lips... and then gently tasted her tongue.
He only let go when her brows relaxed.
It took more than half an hour to finish feeding the medicine.
The man walked out of the house with a satisfied look on his face and went to the kitchen to cook.
Inside the room, the girl's eyes were red-rimmed, and her brows were tinged with springtime. Her originally sickly pale face now had a touch of lushness and beauty.

After the brigade leader finished his meeting, the educated youth moved into the villagers' homes.
Tang Lingling then moved into the brigade leader's house.
She didn't expect the brigade leader's wife to be so hospitable. Not only did she have a private room, but the room was also fully equipped with a bed and wardrobe.
"From now on, you can call me Auntie. I felt a connection with you when we were working in the fields. The room is all cleaned up, why don't you go and see if you like it?"
Tang Lingling was not used to this enthusiasm and was somewhat at a loss.
"Thank you, Auntie."
We've been waiting for you so long, and you've finally come to our house!
Chen Guiru had her own selfish motives.
She gave birth to Tiezhu in the dead of winter, and she was already working in the fields less than three days later.
Later, while I was still in my postpartum period, I went to wash clothes in the river, but the ground was icy and I slipped and fell into the water.
Although she was later rescued, her body was severely damaged, and she only had Feng Tiezhu with her all these years.
Now that he has finally raised his son to adulthood, he sees children his age running around everywhere.
Her son is already twenty-five, and he hasn't even seen a hint of a wife yet.
Although her husband was a brigade leader, that was just a nice title; their family's financial situation wasn't much better than that of an average family.
Over the past few years, I've tried to find a spouse for my son, but for some reason, the couples always get along well when they meet.
When they were finally brought together alone to spend some time together, the girl refused...
She was so worried, she didn't know what the problem was. Her son wasn't ugly! He was just a little darker and shorter than others.
The key is that his son is physically strong. Over the years, he's always gone hunting in the mountains with Yan Xiao, so his food has improved and his stamina is good. Unlike those skinny guys who would run away at the slightest breeze.
When a woman is looking for a partner, the first thing she looks at is his physical condition, and the second thing she looks at is his physique.
She got to know all the female educated youths who came to the team, except for Wen Qinghe.
Although Tang Lingling had been there for a while, she hadn't noticed her at first.
Because Tang Zhiqing had an androgynous appearance and was tall, she subconsciously felt that such a person would not be interested in her son, who was the same height as her.
