Chapter 408: The Style of a Heroine
Cheng Xuyuan knew exactly why Fang Yuqing pinched herself.
He hesitated for a moment, then said solemnly to Fang Yuqing: "Feng Xiaoxia and I have always been ordinary friends."
Fang Yuqing nodded slightly to Cheng Xuyuan's explanation, and then squeezed Cheng Xuyuan's arm hard.
Cheng Xuyuan, who was a little confused, asked: "What on earth do you mean?"
"Do you think I'm lying?"
Fang Yuqing shook her head gently and said, "I believe what you said is true."
"Then why are you pinching me?" Cheng Xuyuan asked somewhat unconvinced.
"I pinch you because you are too outstanding and attract many men." Fang Yuqing's voice was very low, but there was a hint of solemnity in her expression.
Hearing this reason, Cheng Xuyuan was a little speechless, but he couldn't find any reason to refute it.
Cheng Xudong seemed not to notice the fight between the two people, and did not say much along the way. He just performed his duties and brought the two people back home.
Li Xiu'e made a very sumptuous breakfast. In addition to millet porridge, she also bought fried dough sticks and steamed dumplings, and added two plates of stir-fried dishes. It was very sumptuous.
Cheng Xuyuan stayed in the hotel for one night and was really hungry.
After saying hello to Cheng Jiadong and his wife, he began to eat voraciously.
Fang Yuqing ate her food while chatting with Li Xiu'e, chewing her food slowly and thoroughly.
"Aunt, you are free this year, you can take Dongdong to Yanjing for a tour."
"Xuyuan and I are not too busy with our classes right now, so we can take you for a good look around."
Li Xiu'e was very happy about Fang Yuqing's invitation.
She did think about taking her son to Yanjing for a visit, not only to relax but also to let her beloved son see the world.
Of course, letting him visit Yenching University in person might stimulate his interest in learning.
It's almost killing two birds with one stone.
Because of the trip, the relationship between Li Xiu'e and Fang Yuqing improved a lot.
After breakfast, Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing got on a passing bus contacted by Cheng Jiadong. In just over an hour, the car arrived at Liguotun Commune.
Cheng Xuyuan looked at the environment around him which had not changed much, and for some reason, he felt a little touched.
This is my hometown, and I have deep feelings for this place.
But I’m afraid that I will have very few opportunities to come here in the future.
Fang Yuqing was somewhat curious about the situation in Liguotun Commune. After all, this was where Cheng Xuyuan grew up.
But looking at the muddy streets, the dilapidated houses, and the shabby-clothed pedestrians, she felt a little depressed.
"You...you have really suffered!" Fang Yuqing held Cheng Xuyuan's hand and said in a low voice.
Cheng Xuyuan looked at Fang Yuqing who looked distressed and couldn't help but laugh: "What's there to suffer about? There are many people who grew up with me."
"Let's go. We still have to walk more than ten miles before..."
Before Cheng Xuyuan could finish his words, he saw his cousin Cheng Xuzhang, driving the brigade's only tractor, roaring towards him.
"Dayuan, get in the car quickly!" As Cheng Xuzhang spoke, his eyes focused more on Fang Yuqing's face.
This time he was ordered to pick up Cheng Xuyuan. Last night, Cheng Jiadong had already contacted the village and asked them to drive to pick up Cheng Xuyuan.
As the driver in the team, it was his duty to pick up Cheng Xuyuan.
What's more, Cheng Jiadong said on the phone that Cheng Xuyuan's wife would also come along.
The whole village was curious about what kind of wife Cheng Xuyuan would marry after he and Shen Yumo separated.
After all, although Shen Yumo didn't interact with most people in the village, her appearance was one in a million.
This time, can the person Cheng Xuyuan find be comparable to Shen Yumo? Now, this young girl who looks like a doll in Cheng Xuzhang's eyes seems to be more radiant than Shen Yumo.
And even more...
After Cheng Xuyuan helped Fang Yuqing get into the car, he briefly introduced the two of them, then took out a box of cigarettes and handed it to Cheng Xuzhang, saying, "Brother, you smoke."
"Just give me one!" Cheng Xuzhang declined.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Take it and smoke it. I don't smoke. If I give you one, the rest of this box of cigarettes will be wasted."
"Brother Xuzhang, how is home?"
"Everything is fine at home!" Cheng Xuzhang took the cigarette from Cheng Xuyuan and said, "The grain harvest this year is good, and everyone has a lot more food."
"By the way, your house has been built."
"Dayuan, your house is really well built. The three main rooms are all made of red bricks. Oh, and the walls are also plastered with cement. It's very solid."
At this point, he couldn't help but ask Fang Yuqing, "Dayuan, where is your girlfriend from?"
"Brother Xu Zhang, my family is from Yenching. Xu Yuan and I are classmates and also study at Yenching University." Fang Yuqing said very generously.
Hearing Fang Yuqing say that her family was from Yenching University and that she was studying at Yenching University, Cheng Xuzhang said with emotion: "Oh, you guys are the best, you are all college students."
"Once you graduate, you'll be able to eat government-provided food."
Cheng Xuyuan listened to this sigh and smiled and said, "Brother Xuzhang, instead of envying me, you might as well let your children go to school well."
"I'll go to college in the future."
Upon hearing this suggestion, Cheng Xuzhang shook his head and said, "Dayuan, people in our village say that you have already used up all the talent of our Cheng family!"
"Now, none of our children can go to school."
"Forget about going to college. I can't even read and write."
Cheng Xuyuan was a little speechless when he heard this. He knew that this was an excuse from Cheng Xuzhang, so he didn't plan to say anything more.
"Brother Xu Zhang, I think people who say this are not only ignorant, but also may not have good intentions." Fang Yuqing said: "Our IQs are all about the same."
"Whether you study well or not basically depends on whether you put in the effort to study."
"Xuyuan learned all his knowledge by himself."
"It has nothing to do with the Cheng family's talent. We can't listen to these malicious words and delay the child's future."
Looking at Fang Yuqing's serious expression, Cheng Xuyuan's mind flashed with thoughts, and he began to understand the purpose of Fang Yuqing's words.
She just wants to tell those who are making excuses for Cheng Xuyuan's success that the reason you can't get into college is because you didn't work hard enough, and it has nothing to do with Cheng Xuyuan.
He doesn't owe you anything, so don't make far-fetched claims here.
Understanding Fang Yuqing's meaning, Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Brother Xuzhang, Yuqing is right. If we want to succeed, we need to work hard on our own."
Although Cheng Xuzhang had not received much education, he was well versed in the ways of the world.
Listening to Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing's singing in unison, he thought that Cheng Xuyuan's new wife was not only beautiful, but also very capable, and she was not someone who could be easily controlled.
He smiled and said, "You are right. I will urge our boy to study hard later."
The road of more than ten miles was a bit muddy.
Fortunately, the tractor had enough horsepower, and in just half an hour, Cheng Xuyuan returned to Chengjiazhuang Brigade.
At this time in Chengjiazhuang Brigade, many people had gathered at the entrance of the village, but the most conspicuous thing in the village was not the villagers who gathered together to chat.
But it's the house built with red bricks.
Among the houses, most of which are built with a mixture of bricks, tiles and adobe, this red brick house stands out like a crane among chickens.
"Dayuan, that's your new house!" Cheng Xuzhang said while driving, pointing.
At this time, the tractor had arrived at the entrance of the village, and many people turned their eyes to Fang Yuqing.
They had all received the news and knew that Cheng Xuyuan had returned with his new wife. Everyone gathered here, naturally, to see Cheng Xuyuan's new wife.
"Brother Xuzhang, let's go straight home." Cheng Xuyuan looked at the people at the entrance of the village and said to Cheng Xuzhang.
Cheng Xuzhang knew what Cheng Xuyuan meant. He was afraid that Fang Yuqing could not deal with the neighbors at the village entrance, so he asked her to go home first.
No one can say anything about such a choice.
Just as he was about to do so, Fang Yuqing suddenly said, "Xuyuan, we're already in the village, I'd better walk with you and get familiar with the village."
"Yuqing, there are neighbors in front. I think it would be better for you to get in touch with them slowly in the future." Cheng Xuyuan knew what Fang Yuqing meant, but still made a suggestion.
"We're going to meet sooner or later anyway, so I might as well say hello to everyone earlier. It's okay." Fang Yuqing pulled Cheng Xuyuan's arm and said firmly.
Seeing Fang Yuqing's serious expression, Cheng Xuyuan said, "Okay, let's go from the village entrance."
"If you feel you can't handle it, just smile at me and I'll take you home quickly."
Fang Yuqing smiled and said, "Okay."
Cheng Xuyuan immediately said to Cheng Xuzhang: "Brother Xuzhang, let's come down from the village entrance."
Although Cheng Xuzhang was driving, he also heard the conversation between Cheng Xuyuan and Fang Yuqing.
He was familiar with the situation in the village and couldn't help but worry for Fang Yuqing.
After all, these gossips in the village are not so easy to deal with.
"Okay, then I'll stop at the entrance of the village."
When the tractor stopped, people from the village gathered around, and most of them looked at Fang Yuqing.
"Xuyuan, is this your new wife?" an old lady asked tremblingly.
Cheng Xuyuan smiled and said, "Third grandma, this is my girlfriend Fang Yuqing. Yuqing, this is my third grandma."
After Cheng Xuyuan introduced them, Fang Yuqing had already greeted Third Grandma with a smile and chatted with her for several sentences.
This was just the beginning. As more and more neighbors gathered around, there were more and more people around Fang Yuqing, so much so that Cheng Xuyuan was a little overwhelmed to introduce them all.
But Cheng Xuyuan now discovered that no matter how many people gathered, Fang Yuqing could always greet them gracefully and say greetings casually.
Every gesture and movement seemed to be done with ease.
This situation made Cheng Xuyuan feel deeply moved.
How come I didn't realize before that Yuqing actually has the demeanor of a heroine! The second update is here today, please support me! (End of this chapter)
