Mu Jingshu not only flattered Old Madam Xu, but she also said nice things to everyone she met, showing kindness to everyone equally and never showing favoritism. Even after going back to her room to sleep with Xu Xinning, her mouth never stopped, making everyone in the Xu family feel comfortable.
Aside from Jiang Juecheng, he had been so tormented by Mu Jingshu these past few days that he had lost all temper; he was already immune to any sweet words she said.
After dinner, Jiang Juecheng and Xu Zexi went to Xu Yaozu's room. The three of them stayed in the room and talked for a long time before coming out.
Xu Zexi and Jiang Juecheng got along very well, sharing similar interests and feeling like they had known each other for a long time.
Xu Zexi also regretted that Xu Xinning hadn't chosen Jiang Juecheng. He felt that Jiang Juecheng would be a better match if he could become his brother-in-law.
Mu Jingheng: Brother-in-law, we haven't even met yet, how do you know I'm not a good match? Didn't you feel like we were kindred spirits when you first met me in our past life? (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c)
Mu Jingshu might be staying for an extended period this time, so the next day Yang Chunqin took her to the school to complete the transfer procedures, and she started attending classes there immediately after completing the procedures.
Mu Jingshu and Xu Laosan went to the same school, which gave Xu Laosan a sense of responsibility. She was his sister, and he had to be responsible for her safety.
Yang Chunqin was a celebrity in the entire commune. Everyone in the school knew that Yang Chunqin was Xu Zerui's (Xu Laosan's) mother. Now that she had brought such a beautiful little girl to school, everyone who saw her became curious about Mu Jingshu's identity.
After Yang Chunqin left, Xu Laosan was worried that Mu Jingshu would not be able to adapt, so he went to their classroom to see her.
Mu Jingshu was considered tall and was assigned a desk in the last row.
When Xu Laosan went in, Mu Jingshu was tidying up her desk.
When Xu Laosan saw Mu Jingshu sitting in the last row, he frowned. In his memory, the last row was where naughty and unruly students sat. He was very unhappy that Mu Jingshu was given such a seat as soon as she arrived.
What's wrong? Are you bullying the new guy?
Xu Laosan turned around and wanted to go to the office to ask the teacher for a fair judgment.
Mu Jingshu caught a glimpse of Xu Laosan entering out of the corner of her eye. Before he even reached her, he was about to turn and leave. Mu Jingshu wondered what was wrong and called out to him, "Brother Rui, did you come to see me?"
When Mu Jingshu called out to him, Xu Laosan turned around and walked over. Seeing that she had tidied her desk neatly, he asked, "Why did the teacher let you sit here?"
Mu Jingshu smiled brightly and replied, "The teacher said I'm tall, and this seat just happened to be empty, so she let me sit here for now, and the teacher will adjust the seating arrangement later."
Since the teacher said that, Xu Laosan felt that there was no point in going back to him. He would wait and see if the teacher would really help with the adjustment. If not, then he would talk to him again.
Xu Laosan walked to Mu Jingshu's side, squatted down and looked at the blackboard. He thought it was alright.
Mu Jingshu laughed, "Brother Rui, are you afraid I can't see? Let me tell you, my eyesight is excellent. Don't worry, it's perfectly fine sitting here."
The classroom was bustling with excitement when a new student arrived. The other students were curious about the new student and kept watching from a distance, not daring to get close.
Seeing how much Xu Laosan cared about his new classmate, they became even more curious.
Chen Jianguo and his classmates also crowded at the door to watch.
Who is this person?
"It must be someone from my eldest brother's family. Our brigade leader brought them to school."
"Didn't you see how concerned our eldest brother is? He must be a relative of theirs."
"Jianguo, who is this person?"
Chen Jianguo and Mu Jingshu haven't met yet. Yesterday, his father took him to the county town, and it was already dark when they returned.
"I don't know either."
"Hey! Your house is right next to my brother's, how could you not know?"
"I wasn't home yesterday."
"Ask the older brother, but this guy is really good-looking, his clothes are nice too, and he's even wearing leather shoes!"
"They must be city people, right? That's what the female educated youth in our village dressed like when they first arrived."
"Everyone in the eldest brother's family is good-looking. Her older sister is as beautiful as a fairy. I heard that the eldest brother's older sister went to university in Kyoto, and her brother-in-law is also from Kyoto."
"Do you think this little girl might be from Kyoto?"
"Are you stupid? Would someone from Kyoto come all the way to our rural area to study?"
Everyone pursed their lips, and they all felt that the possibility was zero.
Xu Laosan didn't care what these people were talking about. All he wanted to do was protect Mu Jingshu and prevent her from being bullied at school, not even by the teachers.
Lu Chunping somehow found out that Jiang Juecheng had returned, and she came to the Xu family's door early in the morning to block him.
Jiang Juecheng rested for one night and originally planned to go back today, but Xu Zexi invited him to go hunting in the mountains today, so he postponed his return by one day.
When Jiang Juecheng and Xu Zexi went out, they saw Lu Chunping blocking the doorway.
Xu Zexi nudged Jiang Juecheng with his elbow, gestured to Lu Chunping with his eyes, and whispered, "Your boyfriend?"
Jiang Juecheng glared at Xu Zexi and said irritably, "Do you think it looks like it?"
Xu Zexi touched his nose sheepishly and smiled awkwardly. If Jiang Juecheng's girlfriend really was in the village, he probably would have gone to find her as soon as he arrived yesterday, instead of waiting for her to come to him.
Xu Zexi had been back for several days. He had heard the young men in the village talk about Lu Chunping, so he took a second look when he met this person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known about this person.
Judging from Jiang Juecheng's expression, he really didn't like her. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xu Zexi suggested, "If you don't like her, just say so. Otherwise, it will be bad to cause misunderstandings."
Jiang Juecheng frowned, paused for a moment, and then walked towards Lu Chunping, seemingly having taken Xu Zexi's words to heart.
Seeing Jiang Juecheng walking towards her, Lu Chunping's heart pounded wildly.
He's here, he's here, he's walking towards me!
Jiang Juecheng stepped forward without hesitation and asked, "You came to see me?"
Lu Chunping nodded shyly, not daring to look at Jiang Juecheng.
Jiang Juecheng then asked, "What do you want from me?"
Lu Chunping bit her lip. She had mustered up all her courage to come here today. She felt that if she lost this opportunity, they might never be able to be together again in this lifetime.
Lu Chunping never expected to see him in military uniform when she met him again.
It turned out he was a soldier, and a soldier with four pockets at that! This was something Lu Chunping never expected. She liked Jiang Juecheng even more now!
Taking a deep breath, Lu Chunping mustered her courage and said, "Jiang Zhiqing, I like you. I want to be your girlfriend. I fell in love with you when you were still here as an educated youth. Unfortunately, you never came back after you went back. I thought we would never see each other again in this life. But now you have appeared in front of me again. I feel that God is giving me a chance. Jiang Zhiqing, are you willing to become my revolutionary partner?"
Lu Chunping finished speaking in one breath, and afterwards she felt a sense of relief. Anyway, she had already tried her best, and no matter what Jiang Juecheng's plans were, she felt that she had a clear conscience.
