I had just finished my work at noon that day, cleaned up, and loaded the car.
Mo Yuan, his second sister, and Gouzi were all very happy.
They aren't afraid of hard work, they're afraid of poverty. No matter how tough or tiring the life is, as long as they can earn money, everyone is full of energy.
"Second Sister, Gouzi, you two pull the cart home first. I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some materials and some meat. Let's celebrate tonight. We've all been working hard these past few days, so we need to eat some meat to replenish our energy. Gouzi, call your mother over tonight! Let's all have a good time!"
Second Sister Chunxia and Gouzi readily agreed, and told Mo Yuan to be careful before pulling the cart home!
Mo Yuan walked to the supply and marketing cooperative. It was just after lunchtime, and there weren't many customers inside.
Several sales clerks were also resting listlessly by the counter.
Upon seeing that the visitor was Mo Yuan, a friendly saleswoman in her late twenties immediately came over to greet him.
"Hey, Mo Yuan's here. What materials are you buying this time?"
Seeing the other person's warm greeting, Mo Yuan also warmly replied, "Sister Ma, we can talk about the materials later. I need to buy some meat. Can you show me that bicycle first? I want to buy it!"
Wow! You're rich, kid?
The sales clerk across the street was surprised; this young man, only twenty years old, always made a large purchase every time he came.
I underestimated him; this time he actually wants to buy a bicycle!
"Do you have a ticket? That car costs over a hundred yuan! Are you really going to buy it?"
"Sis, I'd lie to anyone but you, it's really on me. I've got the money and tickets ready, and once I've checked out the car and it's clear, we'll buy it right now!"
Seeing that Mo Yuan wasn't joking, Sister Ma led him to the bicycles nearby.
"The car is definitely fine, take a look! I really underestimated you. Don't forget to help me out when you become successful!"
"Hehe, I'm just kidding. You have such a secure job; countless people envy you!"
The two chatted and laughed. Mo Yuan checked the bicycle and found it to be brand new Phoenix brand bicycle with a frame!
He took out his money and tickets and readily gave them to Sister Ma, also buying several pounds of meat and rice.
Time to go home and treat myself to a nice meal!
I said goodbye to Sister Ma and left the supply and marketing cooperative.
Mo Yuan was extremely excited as he rode his new bike!
Although he had spent almost all the money he had earned in the past few days, Mo Yuan was not worried at all. Soon, he would be able to earn more money, and then he would marry Lin Xue in a grand manner, build a new house, and let the whole family live a good life!
I rode as fast as the wind, covering more than ten miles in one go.
Just as I reached the small bridge at the village entrance, I was stopped by someone!
Just as the other party was about to confront Mo Yuan, they suddenly noticed that Mo Yuan was riding a brand-new bicycle with a piece of pork hanging from the handlebars.
In an instant, he forgot all the words he had prepared!
"Hey, Mo Yuan, you bought a new bicycle? That's great! I've never ridden in a new bike before. Want to come for a spin?"
When the other person saw that Mo Yuan, upon seeing him, was not as attentive and enthusiastic as usual, but instead looked displeased and remained coldly silent,
He immediately adjusted his tone, smiling as he changed the subject.
"By the way, Mo Yuan, I told my dad about our relationship again, and he said that as long as we're both willing, we can discuss the bride price."
Mo Yuan had been suppressing his anger ever since he first saw the other person.
Memories of his past life flooded his mind. If he hadn't wanted to see what tricks the other person would play and what they would say, Mo Yuan would have left long ago.
Although she appeared beautiful and poised, he knew all too well that she was a viper in the heart.
The reason for this attitude is probably because he saw his new bicycle and was eyeing the rice, flour, and pork on it.
Returning the bride price is negotiable; that wasn't the case a few days ago.
"Wang Xiaofang, I told my family about your request from a couple of days ago. We're poor and can't afford it. It seems we're not meant to be. Let's not talk about this anymore! We can't afford to climb the social ladder of your Wang family!"
"Mo Yuan, what nonsense are you talking about? Didn't I say that the bride price is easy to discuss, a smaller amount is fine too? I was just saying you've been making money lately, right? Tell me about it! I haven't eaten pork in years. Why don't you take me to that little grove over there, and you can tell me all about it? After that, we can go to my house, and I'll cook you a nice meal!"
As she spoke, she grabbed Mo Yuan's hand that was holding the handlebars, and even thought about sitting on the crossbar of the car, preparing to fall into Mo Yuan's arms!
Mo Yuan snorted coldly. Make something delicious? Use the pork and rice I bought, right?
They even went to the grove and threw themselves into my arms? If I remember correctly, I had been pursuing her relentlessly, and even just trying to hold her hand had been a huge gamble.
Now they're being so enthusiastic, even subtly inquiring about my business dealings.
No wonder they're like this; it seems they have something on their mind!
Mo Yuan, however, was not prepared to get too involved with the other party at this moment; he knew the other party's character and conduct well.
She's capable of anything. These days, people often pass by here, and it wouldn't sound good if word got out that she and her rickshaw convoy were seen together.
He's about to get engaged and married to Lin Xue, and he doesn't want to get into any trouble.
Moreover, he didn't want to look at the other person's appearance for even a second. Just thinking about the things he did in his past life made him feel disgusted!
"Wang Xiaofang, we're not related anymore, so watch your step! Don't get so close to me, men and women shouldn't touch each other! I have something to do, I'm leaving now!"
After saying that, he shoved the other person away, kicked off the bike, and drove towards the village!
This made Wang Xiaofang feel ashamed and embarrassed. In the past, Mo Yuan would drool over her like a dog, but today, when she took the initiative to seduce him, he was unmoved.
Enraged, she yelled at Mo Yuan's departing back, "Mo Yuan, you bastard! Don't think I don't know, you and that vixen Lin Xue got together! You've already fallen for someone else so quickly, you two must have slept together, ugh, shameless!"
"If it weren't for the fact that you're not bad-looking, who would bother with you? You're just a bunch of poor bastards reincarnated, I wouldn't even want you! There are plenty of people who like me. I'll go find Mo Dayong. His family isn't as rich as yours, but they're the richest in your village. His uncle even works at the town's police station. Just you wait, I'll make you pay sooner or later!"
Watching Mo Yuan's figure disappear, Wang Xiaofang was still not satisfied.
He kept chattering as he walked back.
"Hmph! Mo Dayong already said that as long as I'm willing to be with him, I can name my price! If it weren't for your good looks, who would bother with you? Just wait, once we're together, I'll make sure your whole family is wiped out! And that Lin Xue, she'll find a few men sooner or later... Hmph, she dares to mess with me!"
