Chapter 75 The Little Scoundrel's Dark Moonlight Educated Youth 10
Because she was worried about something, Shen Xinran didn't sleep well that night and woke up early the next morning. But even so, she was still a little late. When she arrived at the village entrance, the ox cart was already full of aunties chatting.
Even later than her was Wei Ping'an, who came over in a casual manner wearing a pair of straw sandals.
Seeing Shen Xinran standing blankly under the ox cart, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why don't you get on?"
Shen Xinran frowned slightly. She wanted to go up, but there had to be space for her to stand!
Shen Xinran watched as Wei Pingan grabbed the side of the ox cart with both hands and squeezed in by stepping on the floor. As he squeezed in, he shouted, "Everyone, move in. There are two more people!"
The aunts were pushed into a corner by Wei Ping'an and started to complain: "We can't get on. You're a grown man and you just have to walk!"
Wei Pingan stiffened his neck and said, "I'm weak and can't bear the strain. So please squeeze in for me."
Shen Xinran was stunned. Wei Ping'an was worthy of being the male lead. He didn't care about other people's opinions and was brave enough to be himself.
After hearing these words, Wei Rong on the ox's back did not dare to look back. He would never admit that this was his biological son.
With Wei Ping'an's unremitting efforts, he actually managed to squeeze out two spots. He turned around and smiled at Chen Xinran, "Come up quickly, what are you standing there for!"
After Shen Xinran came to his senses, he nodded, climbed onto the ox cart with his hands and feet, and sat next to Wei Ping'an.
From below, it looked like the oxcart was packed. But once on board, she discovered there were even more people than she'd imagined. Shen Xinran counted them, and including herself, there were a full ten. For a moment, she didn't know whether to feel sorry for herself or for the ox.
Thinking of this, Shen Xinran looked at Wei Ping'an with a hint of admiration. The male protagonist must be a ruthless person to be able to squeeze out two places among a group of aunts!
The ox cart moved towards the town, and the aunts were chatting and gossiping about the neighbors.
Shen Xinran was listening nearby, occasionally chiming in. "Ah, this is too scary!"
Under Shen Xinran's exaggerated tone, the aunts actually accepted this foreign educated youth and even took her to chat.
The ox cart suddenly hit a rock and shook. In order to stabilize his center of gravity, Shen Xinran put his hands to the side.
Wei Ping'an glanced at the hand that Shen Xinran put over, and a blush appeared on her face. There were so many people watching here, how could she touch him!
Shen Xinran was concentrating on listening to the aunts' conversation, and for a moment she didn't notice that the thing under her hand was Wei Ping'an's thigh.
She felt warmth under her palm, and she grabbed it hard. Just this grab, Wei Ping'an felt numb all over, and he felt as if his legs had lost consciousness.
Shen Xinran finally realized that the feeling was wrong. She turned around and saw Wei Ping'an's face was as red as a ripe lobster. Was she that hard just now?
Shen Xinran withdrew his hand blankly, and asked with wide eyes: "Are you okay?"
Wei Pingan blushed and shook his head, "I'm fine!"
Shen Xinran didn't take Wei Ping'an's abnormality to heart. She took her hand away and turned around to continue chatting with the aunties, "What happened next? How did they become?"
An old lady laughed and said, "Of course they fought! You don't know, they fought so fiercely that they even asked the elders of the tribe to intervene..."
Seeing Shen Xinran take his hand away so easily, Wei Ping'an was suddenly stunned. He quickly lowered his head and felt a moment of loss.
After an hour of driving, the oxcart finally arrived in town. The first thing Shen Xinran did after getting off the car was to ask Wei Rong, "Captain, when are we going back this afternoon?"
Wei Rong was a little surprised when he heard Shen Xinran's words. "Didn't they tell you? The ox cart will be transporting seeds this afternoon, so there won't be room for anyone."
When Shen Xinran heard this, she thought, "How could this be possible? It would take two hours to walk back from the town. The day she came here, her legs were almost broken from walking. This feeling is something she never wants to experience in her life."
She strode up to Wei Rong and gestured with her hands, "I'm very small and won't take up much space."
Wei Rong frowned and said nothing.
Shen Xinran could only keep trying. She blinked and said pitifully, "I'm a new educated youth. If you ask me to walk such a long way back, I'll get lost."
Hearing Shen Xinran even say the word "lost", Wei Rong couldn't bear to watch. For some reason, he actually saw the shadow of Wei Ping'an in Shen Xinran.
Seeing that Shen Xinran was about to continue, Wei Rong pinched his brows and sighed, "Alright, 2pm, still at this place, no waiting after the time."
Shen Xinran nodded immediately and said with a smile: "Captain, you are such a nice person."
Wei Pingan, who was still standing nearby, saw this and came up to him, saying with a playful smile, "Dad, I get lost easily too, so why don't you take me with you?"
Wei Rong rolled his eyes at Wei Ping'an and sneered, "It would be great if you could get lost. It would also save one less mouth to feed at home."
Wei Pingan was not angry, and said to himself: "Then give me five dollars so I can buy something to eat. Otherwise, after walking such a long way, I will faint from hunger before I even get lost."
Wei Rong said coldly, "Do I look like a five-yuan coin?"
Wei Pingan continued to smile and said, "If you don't have five dollars, two dollars will do. I don't think it's too little."
Wei Rong rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "You think it's too little? Do you have the right to complain? It's only one dollar at most!"
Wei Ping'an's eyes flashed, "One dollar is one dollar, but give me two more meal tickets!"
The moment Wei Rong handed over the money and ticket, he finally realized that he had been tricked by this brat. He didn't want the five dollars at all!
Watching Wei Ping'an running away with the money, Wei Rong could only yell at him, "Spend it sparingly!"
The first thing Shen Xinran did when she arrived in town was to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some snacks. There weren't many snacks in town, so she bought a pound of each and it only cost her five yuan.
When she left the supply and marketing cooperative, it was just around noon, so she went to a state-owned restaurant for dinner. Restaurants at that time didn't have the à la carte system of later generations. Instead, customers ate whatever the chef prepared.
Today's offerings were braised pork, braised pork ribs with potatoes, and vegetable soup. Shen Xinran, thinking he'd finally made it to town, decided to splurge and ordered two meat dishes.
The food tasted average, but I had to admit, the portion was really large. Shen Xinran only ate half of it before she couldn't eat any more, so she had to pack it up and take it away.
After leaving the state-owned hotel, Shen Xinran thought it was still early, so he started walking around the town.
I accidentally saw an old lady carrying a basket sneaking into an alley.
Shen Xinran felt strange and took a second look at the alley as he passed by. He saw people coming and going inside, and it turned out to be a small market.
Shen Xinran suddenly remembered something.
In the plot, Li Mingzhu was accidentally caught when she went to the black market to buy things. She handed over all her belongings before the other party was willing to let her go.
In order not to worry her parents, the child did not dare to tell them and she persisted alone for more than half a year.
The autumn harvest finally arrived, but after working for half a year, the work points she earned were not enough to repay the brigade for the grain.
She was forced to seduce Wei Ping'an.
Thinking of this, Shen Xinran suddenly had a bad feeling. She was just passing by, so she should be fine!
