Shen Shuyi was carried by Lu Huai to the foot of the mountain and put down in front of an old tree.
"Then...then I will go back to the educated youth point."
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Lu Huai leaned one hand on the tree and trapped her between his arms.
He lowered his head, looked at Shen Shuyi and said seriously: “Shuyi, don’t go to the mountain in the future, okay?”
"Don't make me worry, okay?"
Shen Shuyi said “hmm”, a little embarrassed, and raised his head to ask him again.
"Brother Huai, why are you willing to be with me?"
Lu Huai hugged her tightly in his arms, held the back of her head with one hand and pressed it against his chest, and spoke in a trembling voice.
"When I saw you surrounded by two evil men, I could hardly breathe. Regret and self-blame surged in my heart."
"If I had promised you earlier, you might not have run up the mountain alone. Compared with your safety, everything else is nothing."
Shen Shuyi raised her eyes and saw his painful and guilty look, and said aggrievedly: "Didn't you tell me to find a good man?"
Lu Huai's face froze, "I will never say those stupid things again."
The last time I saw her getting close to a male educated youth, I realized how heartbroken I was.
"Shuyi, I...I have something else to tell you. Think carefully before you consider whether or not to marry me."
"I... I went with the team to the mountains to blast rocks and open up wasteland. The rock fragments injured me below. The doctor said that I will never be able to have children in this lifetime..."
Shen Shuyi stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, "Then... try it later."
A warm and soft feeling suddenly fell on his ear. Lu Huai's body stiffened and his handsome face flushed.
Shen Shuyi stared at his face with satisfaction for a while, and urged in a low voice, "Brother Huai, please go back quickly, I'm afraid of being caught..."
…
Chen Shuyi said goodbye to Lu Huai and hurried back to the educated youth point. On the way, she heard hurried footsteps.
"Chen Zhiqing?!" A large group of people quickly walked out of the woods, including Cheng Wanqin.
Shen Shuyi looked at them with a puzzled look, "What's wrong?"
"Are you guys going up the mountain to hunt wild boars?"
Cheng Wanqin's face darkened. Wasn't Chen Shuyi raped by Chen Mazi in the mountains? How could she be at the foot of the mountain? They had been looking for her in the mountains for a long time but couldn't find her.
Dong Lanzhen rushed over and took Shen Shuyi's arm, "Shuyi, where have you been? Some people even spread rumors that you were hanging out with people in the mountains!"
Shen Shuyi’s face turned cold, staring at Cheng Wanqin, and patted Dong Lanzhen’s hand, “I was digging wild vegetables by the river, who on earth was talking nonsense?”
Those people looked at Shen Shuyi's basket and found it was full of wild vegetables. Moreover, Shen Zhiqing's clothes were neat and tidy and he didn't look like he was hanging out with others.
Captain Yang looked at Cheng Wanqin, “Cheng Zhiqing, didn’t you say you saw Shen Zhiqing going up the mountain with two men?”
Shen Shuyi didn’t wait for Cheng Wanqin to answer, and stepped forward to slap her.
Just when he wanted to give her a couple more strokes, he suddenly smelled a strong smell of cow dung. Shen Shuyi quickly stepped back and took a few breaths of fresh air.
They are living in the cowshed but are still restless. We are all women, so why put others to death? Chen Shuyi is the kind of person who repays kindness and revenges. Cheng Wanqin has made trouble many times, and she will not let her go this time.
Suddenly, the system's voice rang in my mind.
[Host, after system testing, Cheng Wanqin is already one month pregnant. ]
Shen Shuyi frowned, stared at Cheng Wanqin for a few seconds, his eyes fell on her belly and then he took a few steps back.
Now she doesn't have to dirty her hands.
The arrow is on the string, Cheng Wanqin will definitely cause a big trouble in the short term, and she can just add fuel to the fire.
"Cheng Wanqin, take care of yourself."
After leaving the conversation, Shen Shuyi and Dong Lanzhen returned to the educated youth point.
Those onlookers pointed fingers at Cheng Wanqin. Captain Yang scolded Cheng Wanqin for causing trouble and punished her by making her do more dirty and tiring work before he let them go.
…
Lu Huai had a new partner, and his mind was in a fuzzy state for several days.
This object was something he had never dared to think of, the pretty and cultured Shen Zhiqing. He was so happy that he wanted to hold her hand and walk around the village, but he was afraid that others would know and say something about her.
Chen Shuyi finally got a chance to go to the town to be alone with Lu Huai. The two of them sat in a state-owned restaurant eating plain noodles. They sat in a corner, some distance away from others.
She looked at Lu Huai who was a little absent-minded and asked, "Are you regretting being my partner?"
Lu Huai, who was eating plain noodles in silence, raised his head and put down his chopsticks. He looked at Shen Shuyi and said seriously: "You will face a lot of gossip if you are with me..."
"Then do you have the confidence to protect me?" Shen Shuyi looked directly at him, meeting his deep and gentle eyes, and questioned, "Could it be that you still want to talk to me secretly without letting anyone know?"
"Comrade Lu Huai, are you trying to be a hooligan?"
Lu Huaimo frowned and said quickly, "No."
"Shuyi, I'll tell grandma when I get home and we'll go get the marriage certificate."
"Your home..."
Shen Shuyi's eyes lit up. How come he suddenly came to his senses? Could they get married and have kids so soon? She felt it was a little unreal.
"I brought the household registration book, so there's no need to tell them anything more." They only thought about how much money they could get from selling their daughter so they could use it to help Yaozu, the grandfather of the family.
After leaving the state-owned restaurant, Chen Shuyi and Lu Huai went to the mall. No matter how simple the wedding was, they had to buy some new clothes. She bought a new set of clothes for herself, Lu Huai, grandma, and Yingzi, and also bought some miscellaneous things, such as red sheets and quilt covers.
On the way back, Lu Huai carried all these things.
On the way back to the village, Shen Shuyi held his chin up and said, "Next time I come to town, I want to buy a bicycle, so that it will be much more convenient for us to travel between the village and the town."
Lu Huai took out a roll of money from his pocket and stuffed it into Shen Shuyi's hand, "This is the family savings. I used to save money for grandma's medical treatment but couldn't. This money was saved from selling wild boars last time. From now on, all the money I earn will be given to you for safekeeping."
"You can use it however you want."
Shen Shuyi looked at the big reunion in his hand and suddenly smiled, "Don't you have any money left for yourself?"
"I don't need it." Lu Huai smiled, "Shuyi, I will work hard to make our family live a good life."
Shen Shuyi felt sweet in her heart, and she secretly hooked Lu Huai's finger.
"I trust you!"
It would be better to get the marriage certificate as soon as possible. Once she moves to the Lu family, she will be able to free up her hands to do business.
The two of them returned to the village together without avoiding the villagers. When some people saw them, they widened their eyes and whispered to each other.
But they didn't dare to ask Lu Huai what was going on, so they had to catch Chen Shuyi who had returned to the educated youth point and ask him a question.
"Is Shen Zhiqing back from town? Come over and sit with us."
Shen Shuyi paused and looked at them, “Aunt, what are you talking about?”
"Why did you come back with Lu Huai?" They all looked like animals that smelled fishy smell.
