Amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the crowd, Sheng Zhiyi rode his bicycle back to the courtyard with Mu Yunxi.
Neither of them had any idea what a sensation the bicycle they bought had caused in the village.
There were even a few aunties and grandmas in the village who loved gossip, and a group of children who loved to join in the fun, who came directly to the yard where Sheng Zhiyi and his family lived to look at the bicycles.
"Sheng Zhiqing, did you buy this bicycle, or did Mu Zhiqing buy it?"
An old lady followed Sheng Zhiyi and asked him questions while looking at the bicycle.
Sheng Zhiyi glanced at Mu Yunxi, then slowly spoke to the crowd, "This is the bicycle of my boyfriend, Mu Zhiqing."
As soon as Sheng Zhiyi finished speaking, a fat woman standing next to Mu Yunxi exclaimed in surprise, her eyes widening. Then she shouted in a loud voice, "Hey, Sheng Zhiqing and Mu Zhiqing, are you two dating?"
The rest of the people looked at Sheng Zhiyi and Mu Yunxi, their faces full of curiosity and gossip.
Sheng Zhiyi's lips curled up, his brows relaxed, and he looked very high-spirited. "Well, we are dating now. When we get married in the future, I will treat everyone to wedding candy."
After hearing what Sheng Zhiyi said, the plump auntie couldn't stop smiling. "Okay, then I'll be waiting to eat your wedding candy. I also want to congratulate you two on becoming like-minded comrades. You two really look a perfect match."
"Yes, Sheng Zhiqing is handsome, and Mu Zhiqing is even more beautiful than anyone else in the surrounding villages. The two of them together are just like the golden boy and jade girl in the movies." An aunt next to them also said at this time.
"Yes, they are indeed a good match! The children in the city are just prettier and more lively than the children in our village."
When Sheng Zhiyi heard what the aunts said, the smile on his face deepened. He looked at Mu Yunxi and smiled, revealing a row of neat little white teeth.
Mu Yunxi held her forehead with her hand, her boyfriend was about to start grinning foolishly again.
Helplessly, she could only move the things from the front of the car into her room, then took out a handful of candies from the cabinet, went out and distributed a few to each of the adults and children in the yard, and said a lot of nice words before she sent the onlookers away.
The news spread very quickly in the village. In less than an afternoon, everyone in the village knew that Sheng Zhiqing and Mu Zhiqing were dating, and Sheng Zhiqing even bought Mu Zhiqing a bicycle.
When Sheng Zhiyi saw his partner starting to move things into the room, he quickly helped.
But there is still a silly smile on his face...
Not until all the people who came to watch the bicycles had left did Sheng Zhiyi wake up from his dazed state. He grinned and looked at Mu Yunxi with curved eyebrows.
: "Xixi, did you hear that just now? They all said that we are a perfect match."
"And they said we were a perfect match!"
"Xixi, I also think that we are a match made in heaven."
"Xixi, tell me, are we a match made in heaven?"
Seeing him so happy, Mu Yunxi couldn't help but feel funny. He was really like a childish kid.
But she was also happy to indulge him: "Well, we are a match made in heaven, a perfect match!!"
The two chatted in the yard for a while. Seeing that it was still early, Mu Yunxi suggested to Sheng Zhiyi that they go to the mountain to pick chestnuts together. The large chestnut trees she had discovered before should be ripe now, and they could pick chestnuts on the ground.
But Sheng Zhiyi was worried that she would be tired after spending so much time wandering around Nanshi today, so he didn't want her to go up the mountain again. "Xixi, why don't you just rest at home? Tell me where those chestnut trees are, and I'll go pick them up so you don't have to go back and forth."
Mu Yunxi glanced at him, revealing her signature smile, her brows curved slightly. "I don't know how to describe the location there. I'd like to go with you. I also want to go up the mountain. It's been a long time since I've been there."
Sheng Zhiyi couldn't do anything with her, so he had no choice but to give in to her.
The two of them put on gloves and hatchets, and went to the mountain together with a large backpack on their backs.
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was already setting in the west, not far from the ground. The dim light shone through the wildly growing branches on the green hills, crisscrossing and casting beams of gentle light and shadows, filling every corner of the trees with warmth and light.
