"You told me this, aren't you afraid that I'll get jealous and angry and make things difficult for you?"
He raised the corner of his lips and looked at her out of the corner of his eyes. When he saw her body stiffen, he shook his head slightly:
"Don't worry, as long as you don't harm me, I won't make things difficult for you. I'm not that free."
Zhou Lianyi was already frozen, but her mind was working rapidly. Finally, she heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that she would not make trouble for him.
“Well, actually, I wanted to talk to you from the beginning, but my sister and my cousin asked me to test you first?
If you are angry at my look or my little actions, then let me stay away from you, so that I don’t have to be sold out by you and count the money for you.”
"Heh~" She curled her red lips and snorted coldly at her.
"That's not what I said, so you can't blame me."
Looking at her upturned mouth corners and that cold snort, Zhou Lianyi always felt a chill on the back of her neck for some reason.
He looked her up and down, watching her head almost lowered to her chest, and said in a lightly mocking tone:
"With someone like you, how can you get a good price? I'll have to pay for it till I die." It really made her laugh. Those people in the Zhou family must be out of their minds.
Since he was worried about her, why did he arrange for Zhou Lianyi to come here to work in the countryside? Was he deliberately trying to cause trouble for her? ? ? ?
"Haha, that's what I said at that time." Zhou Lianyi smiled awkwardly and didn't say the following sentence about selling herself to someone else to bear a child.
She had a hunch that if she dared to speak it out, this man would never care about her again. She swore that the hint her hunch gave her was absolutely correct.
He gave her a look that said "you'd better be smart", stopped to let Gu Ya and Wu Shuling behind him come forward, and then the four of them hurried home.
Halfway through the walk, she looked at Zhou Lianyi again: "Why did your father choose us and not another brigade?"
Zhou Lianyi didn't even think about it and blurted out: "Because my father and your father were comrades-in-arms in the past.
He said Uncle He is a nice person, so his family should be nice too, so he asked me to come here. "
"Comrades???"
"What comrades???"
Three voices sounded at the same time, Gu Ya and Wu Shuling's voices were the loudest, but He Wanqing's doubts were stronger.
"Yes, I heard it was when they were young, I don't know exactly when, I just know they greet each other every year."
Looking at the three people's puzzled eyes, Zhou Lianyi felt that there was no problem. After all, they were all soldiers and often changed places. What was wrong with them being comrades-in-arms?
Comrades?
He Wanqing glanced at Zhou Lianyi, turned around and walked home, her thoughts flying to her past life.
In her previous life, Zhu Sanni said that Xu Weijun was able to be promoted so quickly and transferred from their county and city to the provincial capital because of the support of many of her father's comrades-in-arms.
So~
She closed her eyes and laughed at herself in her heart. As the biological daughter, she had no connections left by her biological father, but was taken away by all the scumbags.
I don't know where he got the identity of her father's comrade-in-arms, and how he used the relationship to the fullest extent???
"Sister-in-law?" Seeing her face changing, Gu Ya and Wu Shuling looked at her worriedly, and then looked at Zhou Lianyi for a while.
The two were about to speak when they heard her voice coming into their ears: “Zhou Lianyi, your little actions over the past month have made the villagers very excited about your family background and wealth.
So for your safety, I suggest you find someone to help you move out of the Youth League Home.
If that doesn't work, then you can cook alone to avoid being taken advantage of by others.
You have to know that not all the educated youth are rich. If you eat well, you can take it out once or twice. If you don't take it out to eat together that day, do you think those people will resent you?
I think you should know more about this story of gratitude and hatred than I do, so think about it yourself!"
His eyes fell from her to Gu Ya and Wu Shuling. If she wanted to move out, it would be best if the two of them could move together. Of course, it would be best if Gu Chengshi and the others could move together as well, as this would be safer.
Not knowing what she remembered, she looked at Zhou Lianyi who was thinking with her head down and said:
"There is another way. There is a lot of open space behind and on both sides of your Youth League Home. If you are willing to spend money, you can build one yourself.
It doesn’t have to be big enough for one person to live in, and there’s no need to build a wall around the yard. Just leave one door in and out, and safety issues should be avoided.”
Knowing that there would be more and more educated youth in the future, her eyes moved and she said something that would be most beneficial to her.
"The house doesn't need to be too big. It only needs a bedroom with a one-meter-wide kang, a stove for cooking, and a one-meter-wide warehouse.
Of course, if you think it is too small, you can build it bigger, but then people will notice it.
Another thing is, if you build a house, after it is built, you must remember to publicize that you have no money, so as to prevent jealous people from doing crazy things. "
Seeing that she was very moved, she shook her head at Gu Ya and Wu Shuling who were also moved.
They are poor now. If the news of building a house gets out, no matter how sick they are, it will not stop the villagers from yearning for money.
"But I'm not from your village. Will the team leader agree to let me build a house?" Zhou Lianyi, who already had an idea in her mind, looked up at her.
"You are a member of our village now, don't forget that your household registration book is here.
Also, if you don’t ask, how do you not know that the captain doesn’t want to?
Don’t forget that there are several batches of educated youth going to the countryside every year. There are only a few rooms in your educated youth dormitory. Do you think they are enough for them to live in?
This is also the reason why I asked you to build a smaller one. If it is built too big, the Youth House will not be big enough to accommodate you. Are you sure no one will want to squeeze in with you?"
After she finished speaking, Zhou Lianyi made up her mind that she wanted to build a house.
"I agree to build a house. If I go to the captain now, when can I live in my own house?"
This is very important. She doesn't want to live in the Youth League Home at all.
Who made her feel that except for Gu Ya and the others, no one else was normal? They acted weird every day and almost scared her into going insane.
"The work in the fields now is just weeding and fertilizing. It's not very busy. It will be fine in about ten days. If you wait until next month, it may be a bit risky."
Next month the corn will have grown, the beans will have grown, the rice will have bloomed and will be producing ears, as will the wheat. Everyone will be very busy by then.
On the one hand, we have to make sure that the crops in the fields are not wasted, and on the other hand, every household has to prepare food for the winter, so the construction period will definitely be delayed.
"Then you go back first. I'll go find the team leader." Looking at the village entrance, Zhou Lianyi ran away after saying this, as if she was afraid that she would not be able to build the house if it was too late.
"Sister-in-law, we want to too~"
They had enough money to build two rooms, as long as they were big enough for the six of them.
"Don't even think about it. Don't forget that you are poor now. Have you ever seen a poor person who has the money to build a new house? Even if the house is small, it won't work."
Before she could finish her words to the two of them, He Wanqing refused outright. She didn't want anyone to step down her door in the future.
