Chapter 35 Anonymous Gift

During the busy farming season, even the children in the village have to help the adults with work, just to earn more work points and get more money at the end of the year.

Of course, children cannot work the same hours as adults.

Shen Jiale gave Gou Ya and Gou Dan some tasks, and the two were happy to do them for Shen Jiale.

Because there would be snacks to eat.

It was to observe Jiang Haoran and the Chen family.

Shen Jiale learned from Gou Dan that when Chen Xiaofang got off work, she always appeared where Jiang Haoran was.

Although it was tiring to work all day, Jiang Haoran smiled at everyone who greeted him, including unmarried girls in the village.

Wang Yanhong was very jealous, but she didn't have the status to ask Jiang Haoran not to smile at others.

Jiang Haoran also caught Chen Xiaofang's attention.

She liked this kind of well-mannered and cultured man.

Jiang Haoran was also a city dweller.

Chen Xiaofang was different from other girls in the village. She knew that her hometown was poor and she was eager to leave the small mountain village.

In the past, she had always thought of marrying to a town, but even so, she was a girl with no ability and no pretty face, and it was too high to marry.

Adding to the reputation of their Chen family, the chances were even slimmer.

After the educated youth came to the village, Chen Xiaofang made up her mind.

After discussing with her mother, they chose Li Cheng, who was enthusiastic, hardworking and capable.

They had thought about other educated youth, but generally speaking, these educated youth were very arrogant and looked down on them, the country people, from the bottom of their hearts.

Or they become brilliant when they are shown some color, like Li Cheng, who thought that they had to have him in their family, and immediately showed his true colors.

Recently, Jiang Haoran's performance has made Li Cheng look bad.

Jiang Haoran is approachable and takes the initiative to help the elderly and children in the village, unlike other educated youth who are high and mighty.

...

One day, after work, a child ran to Chen Xiaofang and handed her a beautiful box, saying that someone gave it to her.

Chen Xiaofang took the box and asked, "Who asked you to bring it?"

The child shook his head: "He didn't let me say it."

"Then what did

he say for you to bring?" "He said he admires you."

"What does he admire about me?"

"He said you have a unique beauty."

It was the first time that Chen Xiaofang heard someone's evaluation of herself, and she felt so happy.

Finally, someone appreciates her.

After receiving the gift, Chen Xiaofang went home happily.

As soon as she got home, the exquisite box in her hand attracted Chen Dachun's attention.

"Xiaofang, what's in your hand?"

Chen Xiaofang said proudly, "A gift someone gave me."

"Show me now."

Under Chen Dachun's expectant gaze, Chen Xiaofang opened the box.

A bottle of facial cream appeared in front of the two of them.

The two sisters looked at the transparent glass bottle curiously. They didn't know many words, but they recognized the two words "whitening" on it.

After opening the lid, there was a faint fragrance in the bottle.

Chen Dachun said, "Xiaofang, this should be the whitening cream that girls in the city use. Let's try it."

The two immediately washed their faces, picked up a little with their fingers, and evenly applied it on their faces.

In the mirror, both of their faces had undergone tremendous changes.

The originally dark faces were now much whiter.

After the sisters became whiter, they looked much more energetic.

Chen Xiaofang said, "No wonder the educated youth are so white. I think they probably used this whitening cream."

Chen Daya came back and saw the changes on her two daughters' faces.

She touched her daughters' cheeks and asked in surprise, "How did you become so beautiful?"

The sisters were even happier after getting their mother's affirmation.

Chen Daya asked who bought it for them. It was obviously a good thing, and the price must be high. Their family couldn't afford such a good thing.

"Someone gave it to me." Chen Xiaofang

said proudly. "My goodness, who is so generous?" Chen Daya said with emotion.

"It was someone who admires me." Chen Xiaofang was very proud.

Chen Daya's face was wrinkled with smile: "Bring it to mother, mother will check it carefully for you."

Chen Xiaofang said: "This person didn't reveal his name."

Chen Daya didn't understand: "If he admires you and gives you something, he must be interested in you. Why can't he make it public?"

"I'll go find the child who gave you the gift and ask him carefully later." This was the first time that someone valued her, and Chen Xiaofang didn't want to miss her good marriage.

Chen Dachun was playing with the bottle, and suddenly saw words on the bottle cap.

"Xiaofang, look, there is a word 'Ran' on it."

...

Jiang Haoran had just gotten up in the morning when a child came to see him.

The child said that he had walked to the vicinity of Chen's house and picked up something from Chen's house, but he was afraid that Chen's family would mistakenly think that he had stolen it, so he wanted Jiang Haoran to help him return it to Chen's family.

And he hoped that Jiang Haoran would not tell Chen

's family that he had picked it up. He could help the child and return the things to Chen's family. Chen's family would be grateful to him for getting their things back. It would be a win-win situation. So why not do it?

So Jiang Haoran readily agreed.

Chen's mother and daughter had just gotten up. When they saw Jiang Haoran at the door of their house, the Chen sisters lowered their heads shyly.

Chen Daya immediately smiled and said, "It's Jiang Zhiqing, what brings you here so early?"

Jiang Haoran handed the box in his hand to Chen Daya and said, "I picked this up near your house, I wonder if it's yours."

Chen Daya saw the familiar box, which was the same one her daughter received yesterday. Seeing Jiang Haoran's humble and polite look, she said warmly, "Thank you, Jiang Zhiqing, come in and have a seat."

"No, I still have to go to work."

Seeing him working so hard, Chen Daya's favorability towards him increased rapidly.

After taking the box, Chen Daya was still thinking that Jiang the educated youth was different from the uneducated youth in the village. He didn't say directly when he was given something, but beat around the bush and said he picked it up.

After Jiang Haoran left, Chen Dachun snatched the box and opened it. There was a butterfly hairpin inside, and the butterfly's wings could move.

Chen Dachun liked it at first sight.

Chen Xiaofang also liked this butterfly hairpin, but her mother said that she already had a whitening cream, so this one would be given to her sister.

The two agreed to wear the butterfly hairpin alternately and use the whitening cream together.

...

When going to work, the changes in the Chen sisters attracted the attention of people around them.

"How did the Chen sisters become white overnight?"

"It looks like they have become prettier."

"The butterfly on Dachun's hair can move, it's so beautiful!"

The Chen sisters were delighted by everyone's praise.

"This thing is not cheap."

The Chen sisters said that someone else gave it to them.

Everyone joked, "It must be that some young man is interested in you, otherwise, who would be willing to spend money to give you things?"

The Chen sisters looked at the direction where the educated youth were working.

Jiang Haoran was tired from working and was standing up to rest. When he saw the Chen sisters looking at him, he smiled politely.

The Chen sisters were delighted to see Jiang Haoran respond.

...

Everything about the Chen sisters was relayed by Goudan to Shen Jiale, who rewarded him with a few fruit candies, and the little guy went home skipping.

Today, she received a letter from home. Her father told her that her eldest brother brought a classmate home. He was probably dating a girl. The girl has a good personality.

In their previous life, the eldest brother and his wife were classmates. They were in love. Later, because of his father's affairs, the eldest brother did not want to drag his sister-in-law down, so he proposed to break up.

When they met again many years later, they were both single and got back together.

In this life, nothing has happened in the family. The eldest brother and his wife should always be happy.

Looking at the sunset in the evening, Shen Jiale's heart is full of expectations for the future.
