Chapter 23: Eating under the moon, check her
On the way back to the educated youth center after the meeting in the evening, Huo Lanci walked up to her and whispered, "I have something to talk to you about."
Yu Wanqing glanced at him: "What's the matter?"
"Go to the longan tree by the stream in half an hour." Huo Lanci said and went home.
Yu Wanqing felt that this man was a little mysterious, but who made him look so perfect? One should always be more tolerant of people with perfect looks.
After taking a shower at night, she quietly slipped out of the educated youth site while Zhang Hongqi was brainwashing Guo Hongying.
When they arrived under the longan tree by the stream, Huo Lanci was already waiting there.
The weak light of the flashlight shone on the road. He frowned and said, "Don't you have a flashlight? Why don't you bring it out? It's summer now, and there are a lot of snakes at night."
Yu Wanqing smiled faintly: "It's okay, there's moonlight, I can see clearly."
"Here you go." Huo Lanci didn't know what to say. They were all adults and should understand that their own safety was the most important thing.
Yu Wanqing looked at the lunch box in his hand, and finally took it. The two of them sat on a stone nearby.
Open the lunch box and it is filled with halved pork elbows.
Yu Wanqing was a little surprised and couldn't help looking at Huo Lanci with a puzzled look in her eyes: "Why did you think of bringing this to me?"
Huo Lanci said, "Didn't you say you like eating pork elbows?"
"Who told you that?" Yu Wanqing stared at the man. She was very sure that she had not told him about this.
"I heard Guo Hongying and Zhang Hongqi discussing this matter when I got off work today." Huo Lanci said this and then picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.
Yu Wanqing didn't expect it to be because of this. She looked at the good-looking brine pork elbow in the lunch box and picked up a piece and put it in her mouth.
It is fat but not greasy, very fragrant and delicious.
She asked, "Did you do this yourself?"
It should be the elbows of the two wild boars. Domestic pigs are raised in pens and don’t have this kind of strength.
Huo Lanci nodded: "I like to eat, and I will think about it as long as there are ingredients."
"So you can cook, why do you still have to eat at the educated youth camp? It's really a loss." His cooking skills are no worse than mine.
"It doesn't matter whether you suffer a loss or not." Huo Lanci ate two pieces and stopped eating. Instead, he leaned against a big rock and said slowly, "The people in the educated youth center are all good. No matter who has any problems, no one will just stand by and watch."
“I enjoy interacting with them.”
"I moved out of the educated youth camp because I'm not used to living in the same room with others." Of course it's not impossible to compromise, but he has the ability to live a more comfortable life, so why should he compromise?
Moving out is not because of being unsociable.
Yu Wanqing nodded in agreement: "I don't like living with others either."
Whether it was the original owner or her, they had always lived in a room of their own.
Even when she was in school, she lived at home.
Later, she got to know the Yu Li sisters, and sometimes she would sleep in the same bed with them.
But in my heart, they are the most important people. They are different. I don’t need to be on guard against them and I can trust them wholeheartedly.
"The captain said to build your house next to mine, and Zhang Zhiqing and Guo Zhiqing's houses will be built behind our house." Seeing Yu Wanqing eating happily, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips and revealed a faint smile.
"There will be more educated youth going to the countryside, and the team leader plans to build a few more houses behind the current educated youth site."
Yu Wanqing knew that more and more educated youth would go to the countryside in the future, but she didn't know how many would be assigned to the five-star brigade. She hoped that there would be fewer.
“Luckily I decided to build a house and move out.”
She looked at Huo Lanci and found that under the moonlight, this man was even more handsome and attractive.
She coughed lightly, reminding herself not to be blinded by this skin. This is a living person and cannot be collected.
“How long did it take to build your house?”
Huo Lanci said: "With so many people, it won't take a few days. The production team has adobe bricks, and they will start building your house tomorrow. You can move out and live there within half a month."
"We can find people in the team to make cabinets and boxes."
Yu Wanqing listened carefully and wrote down everything.
The next day, the team leader really brought people to help Yu Wanqing build a house. Just as Huo Lanci said, it was right next to his house. After it was built, the two houses were separated by a wall.
The day after building the house, Huo Lanci asked for leave to go to the commune post office to make a phone call.
The call was made to Shangyang City, and a clear male voice came from the other end: "Aci, I have found the person you asked me to find."
"Her father is an eighth-level worker and technical director at the Shangyang Steel Plant, and her mother is also a worker at the steel plant." The other party told Huo Lanci everything about Yu Wanqing. "We checked it out, and there is nothing wrong with her."
"Her parents were both in the army. They were heroes who fought on the battlefield and killed Japanese invaders. Her father retired after the founding of the People's Republic of China due to injuries. At that time, the higher-ups tried to keep him, but he was determined to leave and eventually returned to Shangyang City. When Yu Wanqing was a child, she was bullied by the kids in the family compound, so Yu Zhian started teaching her martial arts, and she learned it for more than ten years. Don't be fooled by her beauty. She was invincible in the family compound with her fists and became the leader of the kids."
The tough-looking man on the other end of the phone smiled and asked, "Do you know what his father's previous status was?"
"What identity?" Huo Lanci also became interested. He was worried that Yu Wanqing would become a variable, so he approached her and asked people to investigate her.
Now it seems that I thought too much.
But I didn't expect that her past experience was so wonderful. She became the king of the children in the family yard with her own hands.
Awesome.
Xiao Tianlun said: "He was the head of the cavalry regiment and had made many military achievements. He also saved several people above him."
"This guy has a very clean foundation."
He felt that Ah Ci was really a frightened bird sometimes: "Not all people are bad. Since you have gone to the countryside, you should do farm work well. If you don't think too much about those conspiracies and tricks, you can live a few more years."
Huo Lanci smiled: "Xiao Tianlun, did I ever tell you that you need to be punished?"
Xiao Tianlun smiled and said, "Then, you can't hit me."
He is several days away from me and you still want to settle the score with me? That's wishful thinking.
Beauty can't kill him.
After hanging up the phone, he walked out of the post office and suddenly felt as if something heavy on his heart had been taken away.
He himself didn't understand why he had this feeling, but it felt really good to know that she was not his enemy.
After finishing his farm work, Li Wenzhou finally found an opportunity to talk to Guo Hongying. He felt that she had been avoiding him for the past few days.
He stuffed the egg in his hand into hers and said, "There are many people at the Youth Point. Eat here before going back."
Guo Hongying glanced at him and returned the egg to Li Wenzhou with red eyes: "You have a partner now, I can't take your things."
She looked at Li Wenzhou and said, "I admit that I have always wanted to marry you, but you look down on me, and I am not the kind of person who would shamelessly pester you."
Zhang Hongqi was right. She was proud and could not bow her head, otherwise she would be unworthy of her parents and grandfather who had carefully raised her.
No matter how much you like something, you will get tired of it if you eat it every day.
No matter how much you like someone, if they become someone else's, then you don't want them anymore.
She said, "Brother Wenzhou, please don't come to me alone in the future, otherwise your partner will misunderstand you, and others will misunderstand you too."
After saying this, she turned and left.
But tears fell in large drops.
