Even so, she still had to offer advice! She comforted her, saying, "Lanlan, you're just too sensitive. I've always thought your Xue'er is a girl with her own ideas. You see, she just talks a lot about how good this educated youth is, but she's never done anything out of line."
She didn't fawn over anyone like the other girls in the village, so I think your worries are unnecessary!
"Don't worry about it!"
Wu Lanlan carefully placed the harvested wheat. "I know what you're saying, but as a mother, I can't help but worry! I'm afraid that one day this girl will be like those girls in the village, as if possessed, and do something outrageous."
"Look at this girl, she's pretty and has a good personality. Right now, quite a few people are sneaking around trying to find out what's going on with her. I'm trying to find her a good family, but I'm afraid she'll end up like those other girls. If that happens, my world will collapse!"
Qian Hong quickly comforted her, "Don't think such things and scare yourself! Our child would never do such a thing!"
While Wu Lanlan was shrouded in gloom, Yu Yuexue and Yu Yuehui presented a completely different picture.
Yu Yuexue was actively promoting Shen Jianguo to Yu Yuehui, just like a fan introducing their favorite artist, praising Shen Jianguo in every way.
It turned into a one-sided praise session for Shen Jianguo, with Yu Yuexue praising him from head to toe, from his delicate eyebrows and high nose bridge to his fair skin!
Anyway, every single strand of her hair was beautiful, and she concluded: "This educated youth, Shen, is just too beautiful. There's not a single flaw from head to toe. If only she were a woman! I could invite her to my house and be friends with her. How wonderful that would be! Ahhh! I can't take it anymore! Just thinking about it makes me so happy! If it were true, how happy I would be!"
"Alas! It's such a pity that Shen Zhiqing is a man! He can only look on in envy!"
"Hey! Sister, do you think it's possible that this educated youth, Shen, is actually a woman?"
Yu Yuehui was quite impressed with her sister's thought process; she could come up with such a strange idea. "Why don't you go and take a look? A check-up will tell you if she's a girl!"
Yu Yuexue stomped her foot, "Ugh! Sis, you really have no sense of humor at all!"
Yu Yuehui was very curious about her younger sister's idea of hoping that Shen Zhiqing was a woman. She finally asked the question that had been bothering her, "I see that all the girls in the village who like him are thinking about marrying him. Why do you only think about watching? And you even hope that he is a woman?"
Yu Yuexue raised her eyebrows. "I'm not that far-fetched! Shen Zhiqing is from Shanghai. I've seen what he was dressed like when he first arrived. How could he possibly marry a girl from a small place like us? He has high standards."
"Only a few fools think that if they flatter him a little more, they can marry Shen Zhiqing and become a virtuous wife and loving mother. They're really dreaming!"
"Don't you even realize how big the gap is between yourself and others!"
Yu Yue nodded. Wasn't that wishful thinking? That Shen Jianguo was definitely not someone to be trifled with. Even if he was forced to marry someone in the end, the only one who would suffer would be the girl he married!
As for whether the girl truly liked Shen Jianguo, or whether she wanted to bring him back to the city so he could become a city dweller, or both, who cares!
In the end, all that remained in Shen Jianguo's eyes was the option of becoming a city dweller!
After all, under normal circumstances, Shen Jianguo wouldn't marry a girl from their area. If he did, it definitely wouldn't be through normal means. If it's done through abnormal means, do you think he'll cherish you? No, he'll only hate your scheming!
Once that girl marries Shen Jianguo, she will inevitably have to support him. Her second aunt is right. You can't judge a man by his appearance; you have to see if he has the ability to support someone!
Yu Yuehui had no idea that her thoughts at that moment would become a self-fulfilling prophecy, and that things would develop much as she had predicted. But that's a story for another time!
If a man can't even provide food and clothing, what's the point of marrying him?
As she was thinking this, the figure she had just seen suddenly flashed through her mind, startling Yu Yuehui. She quickly shook her head, trying to shake the image out of her mind.
She figured it must be because she had been too idle that she was overthinking things. Once she got busy, she wouldn't have time to think about such things, so she immediately sped up her work and started cutting the wheat with a clatter!
In no time, a large field of wheat was cut down!
·······
Xie Yan, who had already walked away, had no idea that his fleeting glance had stirred a girl's heartstrings!
To be honest, he didn't even get a clear look at the people below; he was too busy looking at the wheat the whole time!
At this moment, Xie Yan and Gu Bin were both holding a stick in their hands, and it was the kind of stick that was very straight and smooth!
It seems that every Chinese person has a martial arts dream deep down. When they see a nice-looking stick, they can't help but pick it up and play with it.
Xie Yan looked at the stick in his hand with satisfaction. What a fine stick! It was straight and beautiful. Holding it, he naturally twirled it, a skill he had learned in his previous life.
At that time, he was particularly fond of martial arts TV shows. He never got tired of watching the various fight scenes and loved them immensely. Later, he secretly found videos to learn how to perform the "Sword Flicking" move. After mastering it, he showed it off to many people!
Now, holding a stick, he unconsciously twirled it like a sword, which made Gu Bin, who was waving his stick around wildly next to him, extremely envious. Gu Bin's eyes widened in surprise and he exclaimed, "You, you, you, do you know martial arts?!"
Xie Yan shook his head with amusement, "You're overthinking it, I don't know martial arts!"
He wanted to learn too! But having lived two lives, he still had no one to teach him.
There really wasn't a single hidden master around him, not even an old man practicing Tai Chi downstairs in the morning! Let alone anyone who knew martial arts!
Gu Bin didn't believe it and rolled his eyes, saying, "If you know it, you know it. Why deny it like that? Don't you know that excessive modesty is a sign of pride?"
Xie Yan looked at Gu Bin like he was an idiot, "Come on! If I knew how, I would have admitted it already, okay? Why are you being so modest with me!"
Gu Bin frowned and asked incredulously, "You really don't know how?"
Xie Yan resisted the urge to roll his eyes and said firmly, "Of course!"
"But that move you just made, it's obvious you've practiced! And you look like you know martial arts!" Gu Bin finally asked, voicing his doubts.
Xie Yan then performed another sword flourish. "This is called a sword flourish. I learned it from watching others do it, and this is the only one I know how to do!"
