Qin Hanshu and Zhou Weiguang stared at each other for a while.
She was puzzled and asked, "Why did the secretary...give me cigarettes?"
It is understandable to send donkey offal, after all, it is food.
Send her cigarettes...she doesn't smoke!
And it's such an expensive cigarette.
Zhou Weiguang was silent for a while, then said, "Just take it...your brother asked me to take care of you, just think of it as a gift from your brother, don't feel any psychological burden."
Qin Hanshu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Why did my brother give me cigarettes? I don't smoke."
Don’t smoke?
Is the rumor wrong?
Zhou Weiguang slowly withdrew his hand, feeling a little embarrassed.
Feeling Zhou Weiguang's good intentions, Qin Hanshu said solemnly: "But thank you anyway, Brother Zhou San, for taking such good care of me."
Although this thoughtfulness is a bit ridiculous.
It can be seen that Zhou Weiguang is an upright person. He promised Qin Feiyang something and is fulfilling it seriously.
Qin Hanshu developed a slight liking and respect for Zhou Weiguang.
"Brother Zhou San, please go back to your room. I'll leave first."
Qin Hanshu turned and left.
Zhou Weiguang stood there in a daze for a while, then quickly walked to the gate of the courtyard and looked in the direction Qin Hanshu left.
Qin Hanshu's back was getting smaller and smaller, and his blue cotton-padded jacket was stained with white snowflakes.
Zhou Weiguang suddenly came to his senses and realized that he should send her back.
Holding an umbrella, he shielded her from the snow.
He was tall and could definitely protect her completely, preventing any snowflakes from falling on her.

Before the Chinese New Year, Zhao Ru finally got a chance to visit the commune.
But she was not alone, but was accompanied by Niu Xiaosan.
Niu Xiaosan was ten years old. Because he was going to the commune, he took off his second brother's pants, which had only one patch on them.
The pants were a little big for him, and they kept falling down as he walked. He accidentally stepped on the trouser leg and fell.
Zhao Ru saw this and tied his trouser waist tightly with a straw rope and rolled up his trouser legs.
Niu Xiaosan sniffed his nose, then called out "Mom" with a chuckle.
In Niu Quangen's heart, Zhao Ru has a certain position, but compared with his six sons, this position is not worth mentioning at all.
At home, Zhao Ru can get angry with Niu Quangen appropriately, but she has to please and flatter these six boys, only then will her life be better.
Otherwise, all of these six guys are troublemakers and anyone who messes with any of them will suffer huge losses.
She no longer wanted sand in her rice bowl, nor did she want her shoes to be wet by urine.
Zhao Ru suppressed her disgust and smiled gently at Niu Xiaosan, "How much money did your father give you for accompanying me to the commune today?"
Since marrying Niu Quangen, Zhao Ru has not had a penny in her pocket.
Niu Xiaosan was very cautious, covering his pocket, and said, "Anyway, my dad said that he would buy you a red silk to tie your hair, and you can't spend the rest of the money carelessly."
Just buy a piece of red silk! Zhao Ru's face turned cold.
However, she hadn't been out of the brigade for a long time, so going to the commune for a walk was just a way to relax.
The two of them walked to the commune.
As the year draws to a close, the commune is very busy, with people crowded together and people traveling together can easily get separated.
In fact, this was a very good opportunity to escape, but Zhao Ru had no money, so where could she go?
Otherwise Niu Quangen would not have allowed her to come to the commune.
Niu Xiaosan was very young and no one knew where he had learned the skills of a supervisor. He even refused to give money to Zhao Ru when she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy red silk.
He had to follow Zhao Ru in and pay the salesperson directly.
Just two cents, but I can do it!
Zhao Ru said she was thirsty and wanted to buy a drink of soda, but Niu Xiaosan refused, saying that his father had told her not to buy anything except red silk.
The money in the house doesn’t come from the wind!
Zhao Ru tried to coax him for a long time but failed, and her will was very firm.
After walking around the commune, Zhao Ru's mood did not improve, but she became angry again.
Niu Xiaosan was still a child after all, and he couldn't walk when he saw people selling candy figures on the road.
The eyes that had been glued to Zhao Ru also moved to the person blowing the candy.
Seeing this, Zhao Ru immediately turned a corner and slipped away.
It wasn't that she wanted to escape, but she had no money and no letter of introduction, so there was nowhere to escape.
She just wanted to make the boy anxious.
After leaving Niu Xiaosan, Zhao Ru started to wander around.
Suddenly, she felt a hand reaching out from the side and pulling her aside.
Zhao Ru thought it was a human trafficker and her face turned pale with fright. When she looked up, she found it was a dishevelled woman.
After a closer look, Zhao Ru screamed, "Hu Wenwen!"
"Why are you yelling? Keep it down!" Hu Wenwen shouted in a hoarse voice while looking around vigilantly.
There are people all around them, but that's fine. As long as no one hears what they say, they won't attract attention.
Zhao Ru reacted immediately and pointed at Hu Wenwen and said, "You escaped from the farm!"
Hu Wenwen said angrily: "I told you to keep your voice down!"
It was extremely difficult for the educated youth on the farm to ask for leave to go out, not to mention that Hu Wenwen was no longer an educated youth, but a prisoner undergoing reform.
Looking at Hu Wenwen's image again, he was wearing a tattered jacket and trousers, with a turban on his head. Due to overwork, his face was extremely dark and yellow, his lips were chapped and he was so thin that his cheekbones were protruding.
Looks a dozen years older than his actual age.
Zhao Ru thought her life was hard, but when she compared it with Hu Wenwen, she found that her life was much better!
If she had not chosen to marry Niu Quangen, she would have ended up like Hu Wenwen...
Zhao Ru couldn't help but shiver.
"I'm here to discuss something with you." Hu Wenwen paused, then continued, "I know you're definitely not willing to spend your whole life with a country man. I have a way to help you escape."
Zhao Ru's eyes lit up for a moment, and then she looked at Hu Wenwen suspiciously: "You can't even protect yourself, how can you help me escape?"
Hu Wenwen smiled confidently, "I can give you a train ticket back to the capital. Just think about it, if you go back home, will that man still chase you thousands of miles away?"
"And..." Hu Wenwen said mysteriously, "I might as well reveal a little secret to you. Today's policies will change sooner or later. In a few years, the whole society will be open. No matter where you want to go or what you want to do, no one will care about you."
"You just need to stay at home and endure for a few years, and everything will be fine."
Hu Wenwen used these words to encourage Zhao Ru, and at the same time to encourage herself.
She escaped from the farm yesterday and she wants to go back to the capital.
After returning to the capital, she planned to look for Yu Su.
Yu Su's father is in a high position of power and has not been involved in any of the struggles in recent years. The Yu family can fully protect her.
She just couldn't stand being on the farm anymore!
Not to mention the work, this is the most basic torture.
The key point is that the bitch Bai Huilan took advantage of the situation and tortured her with countless tricks! In the end, she even planned to have someone destroy her innocence!
She had to escape!
Before leaving, she planned to make one last effort to get the space back, so she came to Chenguan Commune.
From yesterday until now, she has not figured out a way to get close to Qin Hanshu - if she, a stranger, went to the production team, she would attract the attention of the locals.
She couldn't stay for long and was about to give up, but then she ran into Zhao Ru again.
Zhao Ru would definitely not be willing to marry such a wretched rural man. This is a good breakthrough point.
The reason she failed last time was simply because she was too impatient and made regaining the space her most important goal after her rebirth.
After experiencing this period of time, she realized that the most important thing is to live, and to live well.
Without space, she would not be beautiful, but she wanted to regain the memory of another life. She was confident that she could live well in this life by using the prophet.
This time she planned to stay out of it completely and let Zhao Ru do it. Regardless of success or failure, her first priority was to get out of it.
