Chapter 210 210 A Fool
Contrary to Qin Xiaoxiao's expectations, Qin Feng and Qin Aiguo were very pleased. In their eyes, Qin Ye was a qualified older brother, and the future of their branch of the family rested entirely on his shoulders. Therefore, they had high hopes for Qin Ye and firmly believed that he could definitely achieve his goals.
She slept soundly through the night. The next day, after having breakfast at the Qin family home, Qin Xiaoxiao dripped a drop of spiritual spring water into the water vat before leisurely returning to the educated youth compound.
After returning to the educated youth compound, Qin Xiaoxiao took the yarn and went into Su Yun and Su Yu's room to chat.
A little while later, Mu Jin and Liu Meijuan arrived, and the five of them gathered together to chat.
"That woman in the east room, I really don't know what she's thinking. Instead of staying indoors during the dead of winter, she's always running outside. Wait until spring planting season, and I'll see if she still has the energy to run outside."
Qin Xiaoxiao paused, then asked curiously, "Sister Liu, are you talking about Zhou... Zhou, the educated youth?"
Liu Meijuan nodded, then pursed her lips. "That's her. She's never home, and I don't know what she does all day. But I saw Huang, the educated youth, go out with her one day after she left. Do you think they're doing something shady?"
Qin Xiaoxiao paused for a moment when Huang Yuan was mentioned.
It seemed like she hadn't seen this person in a long time; even though they lived in the same courtyard, she hadn't seen him many times.
Liu Meijuan's words caught Qin Xiaoxiao's attention, making her think that Huang Yuan and Zhou Ying appearing at the same time was probably not a good thing.
Mu Jin looked at Liu Meijuan with suspicion, "Who is Huang Zhiqing?"
Su Yu couldn't knit and was bored, so she finally found something to do. She pulled Mu Jin aside and explained the relationship between Huang Yuan and Qin Xiaoxiao in detail, and also mentioned Miao Feifei.
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't mind and let Su Yu talk. Half an hour had passed by the time Su Yu finished speaking vividly.
After listening, Mu Jin looked at Qin Xiaoxiao and asked, "Have you really given up on that Huang Zhiqing?"
Qin Xiaoxiao had a good impression of Mu Jin, so she spoke her mind.
"Yeah, I've given up. He treated me like that, and I still like him. How pathetic am I!"
Besides, I have someone I like now, and he's a million times better than Huang Yuan.
Su Yu then slyly approached Qin Xiaoxiao and asked, "When did you find someone you like? Tell me."
Qin Xiaoxiao was taken aback again upon hearing this. "Didn't I say that?"
Su Yun, Su Yu, and Liu Meijuan shook their heads simultaneously, looking puzzled. "No!"
Qin Xiaoxiao then realized that only her two families knew about her relationship with Su Lu; she had completely forgotten to tell Su Yun, Su Yu, and Liu Meijuan.
Qin Xiaoxiao touched her nose a little embarrassedly, "I thought I had already said it."
She genuinely forgot to tell her partner, but it's not her fault; they just didn't ask.
Qin Xiaoxiao quickly found an excuse for herself and began to explain without any guilt.
After listening for a long time, no one could hear the name of that person from Qin Xiaoxiao's mouth. This made Su Yu very anxious, and she scratched her head and paced around the room.
"Who is that person? Tell me!"
Qin Xiaoxiao coughed, puffed out her chest, and said with a proud look, "It's Su Lu."
Su Yun and Liu Meijuan exchanged a glance and then smiled at each other.
They knew there was something fishy going on between the two of them.
Su Yu looked completely bewildered. "When did you two get together? How come I didn't know?"
Su Yun glanced helplessly at her silly younger sister, "You know that Su Lu has been coming to see Xiao Xiao a few days ago?"
Su Yu nodded blankly, "Ah, I know, and then? You just got together like that?"
Su Yun was speechless for a moment, then explained, "They were already together back then, otherwise why would Su Lu always come to see Xiao Xiao? Of course, he's here to find a partner."
Su Yu seemed to understand at this moment, and nodded thoughtfully, "So that's how it is."
Liu Meijuan and Su Yunnai exchanged a glance and shook their heads in unison.
Su Yu is carefree and doesn't have many ulterior motives. She's not particularly observant, or rather, she doesn't focus on relationships. If it comes to food, she'll be the first to react.
Liu Meijuan really liked Su Yu. Su Yu was a simple-minded and easy-going person. You didn't have to put in any effort or try to please her. If she liked you, she would treat you like family. If you didn't like her, no matter how much you tried to please her, it would be useless. She wouldn't pay any attention to you at all.
It was precisely because Su Yu possessed a simple mind and kindness that Liu Meijuan liked Su Yu even more; her honesty and straightforwardness constantly attracted her and made her want to get closer to her.
Therefore, if we were to say who Liu Meijuan liked to stay with in the entire educated youth compound, Su Yu would be her first choice, while Qin Xiaoxiao would be ranked after Su Yu.
"Isn't he the village's deadbeat? He can't earn work points, and everyone in the village says that whoever marries him is doomed. He'll never be able to get married in his life. Do you really want to marry someone like that?"
Su Yu looked completely innocent, which made Su Yun and Liu Meijuan both facepalm.
I forgot that this guy is very straightforward and says whatever comes to mind, without ever considering whether his words might hurt others or how they might feel.
This isn't being simple-minded; it's being naive.
Qin Xiaoxiao was also speechless, shaking her head with amusement, "I only know what kind of person you are, otherwise I would definitely overthink it."
Su Yu didn't understand and looked to her older sister for help with a questioning look.
Su Yun was too lazy to explain to her now, so she kept quiet and focused on knitting her sweater.
She needed to finish knitting this sweater quickly, and then knit another one for Qin Ye before spring plowing, so he could wear it for a few more days when spring arrived.
Su Yun ignored her, but Su Yu was not discouraged and turned to look at Mu Jin.
Mu Jin lowered her eyelids and remained silent.
What do you mean? He's a complete idiot!
What a fool!
Liu Meijuan covered her mouth and patiently explained to Su Yu, then talked about Su Lu's matter, and also expressed her own thoughts.
"This Su Lu is not so simple. He doesn't work or earn work points but still has money to spend. He must have a way of making money, but we just don't know it."
Don't go around saying this outside; if people find out, Comrade Su Lu will be in trouble.
Su Yu nodded as if she understood, "I understand."
Su Yun and Liu Meijuan couldn't help but roll their eyes at the same time.
What do you understand? Did you even hear me?
It's fine to complain to yourself, but if Su Yu finds out, she'll definitely make a scene.
Neither of them spoke, and they shook their heads helplessly.
"So, that means Su Lu is actually quite good, right?"
Qin Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, he's really good-looking. The key is that he's good-looking. I think there's no one better looking than him in the whole city."
Upon hearing this, Mu Jin immediately retorted, "So you're attracted to his looks? If he were ugly, you wouldn't have fallen for him, would you?"
Qin Xiaoxiao nodded generously, "That's right, I wouldn't want someone who isn't good-looking."
Liu Meijuan shook her head in disagreement, "What's the use of being good-looking? Being able to feed yourself is what really matters."
Fortunately, Su Lu is not only good-looking, but also quite capable. He can definitely feed Qin Xiaoxiao well, otherwise Qin Xiaoxiao would definitely dislike him.
