"Oh! The three educated youths who came this time are all so good-looking! Especially Fang Siwen, you can tell he has read a lot of books! Tian Tian! Have you seen the three new educated youths?" Shen Lingling approached Tian Tian and asked.
Fang Siwen? Have you read a lot of books?
Tian Tian immediately associated the name with the bookish, bespectacled face.
The remaining one with a face of a Korean star should be Qin Yifeng.
Tian Tian matched the three names to their respective seats, memorized them secretly, and then nodded, "I saw them on the day they came, but I only met them once."
Shen Lingling immediately became interested, "Who do you think is the best looking among them? Tell me quietly!"
"It's okay. I didn't stare at the three of them too closely. I just roughly recognized their faces. I don't really have a clear idea of what they look like." Tian Tian said.
The current social atmosphere is still quite reserved. It was impossible for Tian Tian to stare at the three of them and look at them carefully from head to toe. She only looked at them roughly once and saw what they looked like and then stopped looking at them.
"Next time I'll take you to take a secret look. Fang Siwen is really good-looking. It's the first time I've seen such a good-looking person." Shen Lingling said with a longing look on her face.
Seeing Shen Lingling's amorous feelings, Tian Tian suddenly became alert, "You are not interested in Fang Siwen, are you?"
Could Fang Siwen be the male protagonist of the book? How could the heroine’s man be touched?
Although she had been in contact with Li Jiuniang for a period of time, she felt that Li Jiuniang was quite good.
Sometimes the world consciousness plays tricks on her and makes Shen Lingling into some vicious female supporting role, which in turn leads to a bad ending. Who will she cry to then?
"What do you mean by liking it or not?" Shen Lingling blushed. "I just think it's good-looking. Who doesn't like to look at good-looking things?"
Finished!
Tian Tian's heart sank when she saw Shen Lingling like this. It seemed like she had some feelings for Fang Siwen.
Although I may not necessarily like it to the point of liking it very much, I definitely have some thoughts about it.
Tian Tian suddenly felt a little worried. She stared at Shen Lingling holding her blushing cheeks, and suddenly an idea flashed through her mind.
"You can't just judge a person by his appearance. If Wan Fang Siwen looked like Meng Rui, how easy would it be for her to be deceived? Besides, they both wore glasses, and Meng Rui looked very gentle at the beginning. It can only be said that one cannot judge a person by his appearance!" Tian Tian sighed.
Shen Lingling knew what kind of person Meng Rui was. When she heard Tian Tian say this, she immediately equated Fang Siwen with Meng Rui, and she immediately lost interest in Fang Siwen.
"Forget it!" Shen Lingling waved her hand in boredom. "Being pretty can't be eaten, and you can't ask for a few more pounds when distributing food."
Seeing Shen Lingling sober, Tian Tian nodded with satisfaction.
Shen Lingling was very open-minded and immediately put Fang Siwen out of her mind. She started chatting with Tian Tian about gossip, "Did you know that Wang Cui and Zhou Ni both agreed to the marriage between the two families in the city?"
"Everyone agrees?"
Shen Lingling nodded excitedly. "I heard that the two city dwellers were both factory workers. One of the men was not in good health, and his mother said that if she married him, she would be given a job, and would be a city dweller and eat rations. The other one had no parents, but he was quite lazy. He said that he could not save money, so he spent it all the next day."
Tian Tian felt that these two families sounded familiar to her. "Which family did Wang Cui and Zhou Ni choose?"
"Wang Cui chose the one who had no parents, saying that he would allow her to take care of her father and his family after marriage. Zhou Ni chose the one who could find a job. After all, she didn't have anyone at home that she cared about, so she would definitely make plans for herself. There is no better way out than becoming a city dweller!"
The more Tian Tian listened, the more familiar the scene seemed to her, but she couldn't figure it out no matter how hard she tried, so she had to put the matter aside for the time being.
"So when are they going to do it?"
"Maybe this month or next month. If it's later, we'll have the autumn harvest here. But they are both capable people. They can live a good life no matter where they go. We don't have to worry about them." Shen Lingling said.
Tian Tian nodded silently.
Even though this topic was over, Shen Lingling chatted with Tian Tian for a while about all sorts of gossips, filling Tian Tian's head with so much gossip that she even felt like she might become a gossiper in the future. Only then did Shen Lingling close her mouth with a feeling of unsatisfied desire and prepare to go home.
Tian Tian sighed tiredly and went out to help Old Mrs. Tian with her work.
The early beans at home haven't grown much these past two days, and they are expected to be small. Grandma Tian is preparing to pull out all the beans and plant the late beans in a few days so that they can be eaten until around September or October.
Old Mrs. Tian now picked all the beans on the shelf and boiled them for dinner.
The following period of time was uneventful. When August was approaching, Fang Zhenzhen and Fang Zhizhi had their summer vacation, and they asked Tian Lijuan to send them back.
Tian Lijuan felt helpless and had to pack up some food and bring her two daughters back with her.
As soon as Fang Zhizhi and Fang Zhenzhen arrived at Tian's house, they pestered Tian Tian to go to the river to catch crickets.
Tian Tian felt the two girls around her acting coquettishly towards her and she couldn't resist at all. In the end, she took them both out to play.
They were busy playing in the afternoon and didn't catch many crickets in the end. Old Mrs. Tian wiped the water off the three of them who were soaked all over while scolding them.
"Just tell me what you are trying to do. You are already so wet and you caught two crickets. They are not even enough to fill your teeth! You don't act like little girls at all! Tian Tian is the same! You were just flooded last year, and you didn't learn your lesson and went to play in the river again this year. What if you fall in again? You don't even think about your parents!"
Tian Tian felt very guilty after being scolded. She lowered her head to admit her mistake and dared not speak.
Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo rarely saw their sister being scolded by the ears, so they just laughed and watched the fun from the side.
Tian Tian glared at them, and the two little ones ran away immediately.
Old Mrs. Tian vented her anger and told the three of them to go back to the house and change their clothes.
Fang Zhizhi and Fang Zhenzhen brought several sets of clothes with them when they came, so they were not worried about not having enough clothes to change into.
After they changed their clothes, they washed them and hung them on the string.
Tian Tian walked into the house and saw that Old Lady Tian seemed to have calmed down. She approached her and asked cautiously, "Grandma! What should we do with those cicadas?"
"What else can we do?" Old Lady Tian glared at Tian Tian. "Put them in a basin first. Go catch some more crickets tomorrow and stew them for dinner tomorrow night."
"So what are we having for dinner?" Tian Tian asked.
They had just planted late beans two days ago, and now there were no beans to eat. Tian Tian was still a little uncomfortable with it.
"Don't we still have eggplants? Pick some, and then break off the corn at home and boil them for food." said Old Mrs. Tian.
During the spring planting this year, Old Mrs. Tian scattered a few corn seeds at the foot of the wall. Now all the corns have grown and are ready to be eaten.
After hearing this, Tian Tian and her two cousins took earthen baskets and went to the vegetable garden to pick eggplants. Tian Tian broke off the corn cobs and put them in the baskets, and also picked two peppers.
There is a corn cob growing on the corn stalk. It is useless after breaking the corn, so you can just pull out the stalk.
The three sisters brought the dishes to Old Mrs. Tian, and helped her wash and rinse, and watch the fire.
When the food was ready, everyone ate corn, eggplant and potatoes.
