"I'm fine, I just stopped for a bit. Little sister, let's go."
Luo Jingyan quickly waved to her and pulled Xue Yanchen away.
The male protagonist's family is destined to be involved with the female protagonist, but she has many things to do and can't control them.
I'd better try not to come here in the future.
After walking quite a distance, she realized that she was holding Xue Yanchen's hand and quickly let go of him.
"I'm sorry, Brother Xue, I didn't mean to."
Xue Yanchen, however, remained calm and smiled, saying, "It's nothing."
Luo Jingyan thought for a moment. Although he was a man, he was not a real man. Let's just consider him half a man. Then his other half would be a woman.
They were both women, no wonder he didn't mind.
Well, if he doesn't mind, she'll mind even less. Hugging between friends of the opposite sex is commonplace in modern times, and cheek kissing is even popular in the West.
"I'm glad you don't mind. I walked quickly just now because I didn't want to interact with too many strangers."
“I understand.”
They walked a little further on, and unfortunately, they ran into Aunt Hu and Hu Sanqiang.
When Aunt Hu and Hu Sanqiang saw Luo Jingyan standing with a man, they immediately stopped in their tracks.
Aunt Hu walked up to Luo Jingyan and Xue Yanchen and asked Luo Jingyan, "Is he your boyfriend?"
"Yes, you see? My partner is much better than your son. He should give up and stop wasting his time."
Aunt Hu pulled Luo Jingyan aside: "Now everyone on the street knows that your boyfriend is impotent. Aren't you afraid of losing face?"
"What am I afraid of? I'm not afraid at all. I'm not interested in him in that way. As for what others think, let them say what they want."
"You've taken a fancy to him because his uncle is the factory manager?"
"Yeah, and I also like that he's good-looking. If you could give your son a factory manager uncle who's as handsome as my boyfriend, I'd consider him."
Aunt Hu wiped away her sweat. In terms of looks and family background, her son was indeed inferior to Xue Yanchen. His only advantage was the lump in his crotch, but Luo Jingyan didn't care about it.
For his son to meet Xue Yanchen's requirements, he would have to be reincarnated at least once.
However, if his son wants to marry Luo Jingyan, it's not just a matter of her being willing. He can ruin her reputation so she has no choice but to marry him.
"Young Master Luo, since that's the case, we won't force you. Let's leave it at that."
She pulled Hu Sanqiang away.
"Mother, what did you say? Where is my wife?" Hu Sanqiang looked around every few steps.
"We'll talk about it when we get home."
Luo Jingyan later bought a large vat from a farmer's house, borrowed a cart from the farmer, and together with Xue Yanchen, hauled the vat back to the educated youth settlement.
Zhao Jun had already chopped a lot of cabbage, filling the pots and bowls to the brim.
Xue Yanchen and Luo Jingyan unloaded the large vat from the car and then cleaned it.
When putting cabbage into the large vat, layer cabbage and salt are still added. After pickling for one or two hours, the cabbage will release a lot of water. After removing the water, cover the vat and wait for the cabbage to slowly ferment into sauerkraut.
After school, Luo Changtian said to Luo Jingyan, "Sister, our teacher said that it will get colder and colder. If we can eat lunch at school, we can exchange food for meal tickets or buy them directly with money. We don't need food tickets."
"I'll trade with money or grain." However, the thing she had the most of was grain: "Let's trade with grain. I'm afraid the grain we bought in the fall will spoil if we don't eat it."
"OK."
The next day, she had Luo Changtian carry about ten kilograms of wheat to the school. If they handed in wheat, they could eat white steamed buns; if they handed in mixed grains, they could only eat cornbread.
Li Hongying came to the Victory Brigade again, looking for Lu Chengye.
As soon as they entered the village, they encountered a tall, handsome young man carrying a bag, who appeared to have come from the direction of the county town.
This man is even more outstanding than the one she saw here last time. Could this man be Lu Chengye?
She hurried over to greet him and asked, "Excuse me, are you Comrade Lu Chengye?"
Xue Yanchen frowned. "I'm not."
Then continue walking forward.
Li Hongying was very upset. Why were neither of the two handsome men Lu Chengye?
She was certain that the male lead was the most handsome man in the world, more handsome than either of the other two, the kind of handsome that would take your breath away the moment you saw him.
Both of them are from the Forward Brigade, which shows that there are quite a few handsome men in the Forward Brigade.
Because it was on the same route, she followed behind Xue Yanchen. Xue Yanchen was tall and had long legs, so he quickly left her far behind. Later, she saw Xue Yanchen enter the educated youth settlement. When she caught up with him to the entrance of the settlement, she found that the man had gone into the small room in the educated youth compound.
The female educated youth told her that a couple of educated youths lived in the house, and that the man already had a wife and was definitely not Lu Chengye.
She wanted to go visit Lu Chengye's house again.
In the educated youth settlement
Luo Jingyan was somewhat surprised to see Xue Yanchen carrying a bunch of things in.
"Brother Xue, what are you doing?"
Xue Yanchen put the bag on the table. "I bought some snacks for you and Xiaotian."
Luo Jingyan looked inside and saw that it contained things like cookies, peach shortbread, and canned fruit.
Aside from her relatives from both her past and present lives, Xue Yanchen was the first person to buy her snacks.
But she and Xue Yanchen were just pretending to be a couple.
"Brother Xue, so many things must have cost a lot of money. How can I possibly accept them?"
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. We're a couple now, shouldn't I treat my partner better?"
Luo Jingyan's face flushed slightly: "But we're just pretending, you don't need to spend money."
"If you're going to act, you have to make it believable, otherwise how will people believe it?"
Luo Jingyan was unable to refute his words.
They are now mutually beneficial, and Luo Jingyan feels that she shouldn't just let him spend money. As his business partner and also his nominal girlfriend, she should give Xue Yanchen something in return.
It was getting colder and colder. Seeing what Xue Yanchen was wearing, she asked, "Brother Xue, do you need a sweater? If you do, I can knit you one."
In her previous life, Luo Jingyan learned to knit sweaters from a blogger in a short video platform's live streaming room. She was born to learn everything quickly and could learn it at a glance. In her previous life, she had also knitted sweaters for herself and her family and could knit several different patterns with yarn.
"Great! I'm actually missing a sweater, so I'll have to trouble you." The man looked radiant.
"Okay, I'll go buy yarn tomorrow."
"I'll go, you just need to knit the sweater. What else do you need besides yarn?"
He remembered that his mother used to knit sweaters with two long knitting needles, and he wondered if she needed any other tools besides the needles.
Luo Jingyan said, "Just one more set of bamboo skewers will do. There are bamboo skewers outside; I can carve a set myself."
"I'll go."
