Seeing Yang Qilang's absent-minded look, Wan Feng also felt worried for him.
"How about I ask someone for you?"
Wan Feng thought of Chen Wenxin. Gu Qiaoling and Chen Wenxin slept on the same kang, so it was impossible for her to be completely unaware of the news about her cousin.
"Who should I ask?"
"This is not something you should worry about. I'll ask you secretly later."
Wan Feng's plan is to prevent every girl who comes to Wa from flying away, unless all the boys in Wa have wives. Of course, he will work hard for Yang Qilang.
"What is this thing you're fiddling with?"
After all these things were almost finished, Yang Qillang paid attention to what Wan Feng was fiddling with.
"Couplets, we've been selling them for three days, and you don't know about this?"
"Huh? There are couplets like this?"
Yang Qilang picked up a spring scroll and examined it carefully. "It's a good time to enter the new year, for spring brings more prosperity. A wealthy family is rich and prosperous, and flowers of wealth and honor bloom forever." The words are familiar, but the carp prints on the top and bottom are quite new. How much are you selling these couplets for?"
Wan Feng explained, "One pair of couplets for the main gate, one pair for the house door, four pairs for the small door, one pair for Xiamen, three large "Fu" characters, five small "Fu" characters, seven horizontal scrolls, one spring scroll, one each of "Golden Rooster Full of Roosters" and "Fat Pigs Full of Pens" for good luck when you go out and look up. 20 cents, and everyone in our team buys 10 cents."
Yang Qilang calculated the bill and said in surprise, "It's not expensive, and your things are so beautiful. The colors, fonts, and patterns are so beautiful. I'll buy a set and save myself the trouble of finding someone to write them."
Yang Qillang took out a dime and bought a set.
"How much money can you make from selling one of these?"
"We're all on the same team, so I won't hide it. If I sell it for 20 cents, I can make 15 cents off it."
Yang Qilang was startled and then his eyes rolled around: "Can I sell with you?"
"Do you want to do business too?"
"Once the land is contracted, it seems like there's nothing to do in the winter. It's just sitting idle anyway, and it's still quite a long way off until the Chinese New Year."
Yes, people have free time in winter, and when they have free time, some cat-and-dog fighting things will happen.
"You can take some to sell. Any young men in the team who want to sell can come and take it, but you'll have to find your own way to get there. You can't follow us. Our tractor is full of people and can't hold them all. You'll have to find a way to get to the market, or you can take it to the village, such as to Dapuzi area."
Yang Qilang really had this idea. After asking for some advice on the tricks of door-to-door sales, he really took away twenty sets of couplets.
After Wan Feng picked out a hundred sets of couplets, he looked at the sky, packed up the couplets, and walked towards the top of the mountain.
Chen Wenxin's two younger brothers were running around in the yard outside, their noses running from the cold, while she was sitting at the table on the kang, covered with a quilt, doing her homework.
The temperature in her house was not very high, and it didn't seem much warmer than outside.
Wan Feng hasn't seen Chen Wenxin since the holiday after the exams, and it has been three or four days until today.
"Heart."
Chen Wenxin pretended to vomit: "Didn't I tell you not to call me Xinxin? It sounds disgusting."
"Isn't this a nickname? Only by calling each other Xinxin can we be in harmony with each other."
"Go away, go and love your monkey, and be in harmony with your monkey."
"Haha, no more joking with you. Let's talk about this exam. Did I get first place?"
Wan Feng did not go to the school on the notification day. He was supposed to go to Zhou Xiaowen's house yesterday afternoon, but he did not go because he was in a hurry to go to the county town to deliver goods. Therefore, he knew nothing about the exam holiday.
"Well, you got first place."
"Xinxin, you've always been pure in my eyes. How come you've become a bad person after not seeing you for a few days? You've started telling lies without blinking an eye."
"Who lied? You want first place, so I'll give you first place."
"Don't mess with me. Tell me where I ranked in the exam."
"You ranked eighth."
This score should be reasonable. He usually scores at this level in exams. It can't be much higher or lower.
"Then who got first place?"
Chen Wenxin smiled without saying anything. It was obvious that she was the first.
This guy has always had good grades. In the last semester, I don't know if he was in a good mood or just got smarter, but his grades suddenly improved to the level of a top student. He ranked first in the class in both the midterm and final exams.
"Study hard. Our class's admission to university depends on you. If you do, I'll sponsor you. Now, I want to ask you something."
"What's up?"
"Your cousin has a suitor now, but she's been keeping quiet and hasn't revealed anything. She's neither agreeing nor rejecting. The guy is getting a little anxious, so he asked me to find out what your cousin means."
Chen Wenxin's eyes flashed several times. "I was saying that I've been secretly happy these days when I have nothing to do. So this is what's going on. Tell me who's pursuing her?"
Gu Qiaoling is secretly happy?
Wan Feng's guess about this matter was basically confirmed.
"I can't tell you this. If I tell you, you'll definitely make fun of your cousin. Your cousin is a very sensitive person, and if you make fun of her, she might lose face. If you lose your mind and something happens, you'll feel bad, and if you feel bad, you'll be unhappy. You might even get depression like Lin Daiyu. Think about it, if you get depressed and can't get into college, that would be a huge loss for our country. Maybe the missiles and aircraft carriers of the future will be successfully researched by you. If you don't get into college, these weapons that protect the country won't be developed. If a world war breaks out, we will suffer. This is related to the rise and fall of the country and the survival of the nation. That's why I can't tell you who is pursuing your cousin!"
Chen Wenxin was stunned when he heard this. This guy was so good at talking. He could talk about anything to the ends of the earth once he started a conversation.
"It's such a shame you don't just go out and be a con man. I was just asking who was pursuing my cousin, and you, a bastard, actually circled the globe and even raised it to the level of national prosperity and decline. Is your Luan Feng being fooled by you every day?"
"Stop talking nonsense. What I said could actually happen. Now let's continue with your cousin. Is there anything else that's out of the ordinary about her?"
Chen Wen thought for a moment and said, "Apart from the frequent giggling, there seems to be nothing abnormal. He also talks in his sleep."
"Talking in your sleep? What did you say?"
"She seemed to be saying yes or something. I heard her say yes several times."
It is often said that what you think about during the day you will dream about at night. It turns out that Gu Qiaoling is that kind of reserved woman. She pretends to be serious on the surface but is actually very willing in her heart.
It seems there is no need to dig further into this matter. I can go back and tell Yang Qilang what to do.
"Where's my winter vacation homework?"
Chen Wenxin slapped the table.
"Xinxin, you're so kind to me. To express my gratitude, I'm going to..."
"You want to pledge yourself to me again? Get lost!"
