The next morning, everyone arrived at the brigade and waited for their assignments. There were four educated youth in total. Two went to plant rice in the rice fields, and two to weed. The village chief assigned Tang Xiaoxiao and Lu Wanwan to plant rice, which was easier, while Fan Yao and Hao Zhijie weeded.
Lu Wanwan quietly moved to the village chief and whispered, "Village chief, what is Gu Feng doing today?" The village chief looked at Lu Wanwan with a smile, which made Lu Wanwan feel a little embarrassed. Then, in a voice that only two people could hear, he said, "Gu Feng is weeding in the west. Rice is in the southeast, weeding is in the northwest, and Gu Feng is in the west."
Lu Wanwan said, "My cousin is not feeling well. Let my cousin Fan Yao plant the rice while I weed. Is that okay, Village Chief?"
When Fan Yao heard this, she thought, "Cousin Wanwan is still the best to me." When Hao Zhijie heard this, he thought, "Does Wanwan want to be with me?" Seeing Hao Zhijie's happy expression, Fan Yao suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Only the village chief knew that his nephew was not worried about his cousin, but that she was after that boy Gu Feng. He didn't know what kind of luck his nephew had, that he was favored by such a beautiful woman. This time, he could tell his elder brother and sister-in-law not to rush to find a partner for Gu Feng. No wonder no one liked him. With such a beautiful woman, who else could he be attracted to?
Last night, Gu Lang told me that the new Lu Zhiqing was interested in Gu Feng's cousin. I didn't believe it, but now I have to believe it. It's so obvious. I have to tell my eldest brother and sister-in-law to prepare. We might have to have a wedding. What if the young and impulsive one can't help it?
Lu Wanwan left happily after hearing the news from Gu Feng. She had no idea what the village chief was thinking. If she knew, she would definitely say thank you.
And Gu Feng, the person involved, still knew nothing. Gu Feng was second to none in the village work. By the time Lu Wanwan arrived, most of the work had already been done, and there was not a soul in sight. How could she cultivate a relationship like that? Her mood suddenly darkened, and she felt dejected. Suddenly, she saw a ten-year-old child nearby.
"Hey, kid, how old are you and what's your name?"
"Are you talking about me?"
"Is there anyone else here?"
"My name is Gu Lei, and I'm twelve years old."
"Gu Lei, Gu Feng's younger brother?"
"Why are you asking about my brother? Do you know my brother? What do you want?"
"Little kid, don't be so defensive, okay? I met your brother yesterday. I like him and want to pursue him. Please help me." Then he took out a few White Rabbit milk candies and gave them to Gu Lei.
"Are you bribing me? I can't help you. My second brother is too scary. Why don't you go after someone else? How about my eldest cousin Gu Lang?"
"I like Gu Feng, why am I chasing after Gu Lang? Is this a joke?"
"Since I took your candy, I have to help you. But my brother has never talked to a girl. He has a cold face all day long. It scares me to see him. I probably can't help you, and you can't catch him at all. Several girls around here confessed their love to my brother and were scared to tears. My cousin is still the easiest to pursue."
Lu Wanwan was at a loss for words after hearing this. She said, "You eat it first. It's okay, I will definitely catch up with you. Leave one for your brother and tell him that I like him and want to pursue him. Once you eat my candy, you're mine."
Just when they were talking lively, they heard an angry shout, "Gu Lei, did I ask you to come and chat? Come home with me." It turned out that Gu Feng had finished his work and called Gu Lei home, and found that he was chatting with him.
"Lu Zhiqing, I'm leaving now. I'll definitely pass on your message." This child must be afraid of his brother. "Sister Wanwan, you guessed right. Our second brother is the scariest. Come and take him in."
"Brother, here's a piece of candy for you," said Gu Lei.
"Where did you get the candy?" "Lu Zhiqing gave it to me."
"Who told you to take other people's things? Give it back now." The Gu family is made up of grown men who all go to work and earn work points. In fact, they live a pretty good life and are among the best in the village.
"Well, I didn't take it casually. Sister Wanwan asked me to give you a piece and also to tell you something."
"Give me a message, why do you want to give me a message?"
"She said she likes you and wants to pursue you. If you eat her candy, you will be hers."
"Don't talk nonsense, or I'll beat you up."
"Who are you beating up? Xiao Lei is right. Don't come back so early after work. Help Lu Zhiqing with some work. She's too delicate and soft to do it."
"Mom, why are you making trouble? It's nothing for me to help others with their work."
"I also heard what Xiaolei said just now. Every man should take the initiative. Don't let the girl take the initiative. Today, your uncle came to me and said that Lu Zhiqing was chasing you to that piece of land. If you like him, treat him well. I heard from Gu Lang that he asked about you in the car yesterday and kept looking at you."
Gu Feng complained in his heart, they were all big mouths, he knew nothing, how did it become like this, he would find some time to talk to Lu Zhiqing in private.
"Your uncle also told us to prepare for the wedding with a clear mindset and not to rush into it. Also, since you're young and impulsive, don't act rashly. If you really can't help yourself, you can get engaged first."
"Mom, this is all nonsense, and you believe it? I've never even met her. Today is our second meeting, and you're talking so much."
"Then why would they ask about you and no one else? Why wouldn't they ask about your cousin? Why would they chase you to work? There's no point in hiding."
"How would I know? I'm not confident enough to charm someone just by meeting them once." Gu Feng said.
"Maybe you've met before, but you don't remember."
"He's from Jing City. I've never even left the village, how could I possibly have seen him?"
"I have to ask you this. Others don't know. Think carefully about it and decide whether to accept or refuse. Don't let bad rumors spread and harm the girl."
"If you're willing, don't make the girl wait too long. Be proactive and don't keep chasing her. You'll regret it if you run away after her. If you're really willing, then settle down. Don't mess around. This era is tough on girls, unlike you guys."
"Mom, I know what's going on."
"Okay, hold on until you think it through. Mind yourself."
Gu Feng was depressed. How did it come to engagement? Why couldn't he hold back? Mom, what kind of vicious words are you saying? Is it appropriate for you to say these to your son?
I can't explain it clearly, so I won't say anything. My face is burning, and if I look closely, I can see that my ears are red too. Thinking about Lu Zhiqing's appearance, it seems not bad either. No, am I really that superficial? I still need to talk to Lu Zhiqing and explain it clearly.
I don't know what Lu Zhiqing was thinking. I definitely haven't seen her before, so how could she accurately say my name and even ask about me? Could she really be attracted to me?
But what does she want? I can't even imagine being with a girl like her. There's such a huge difference between them. I don't know what she's making such a fuss about.
