Chapter 57 Returning on a Bicycle



This person didn't behave rudely, and Gu Qingning was very polite. "Hello, comrade, what can I do for you?"

Li Qiming looked calm and polite, and it was obvious that he had good upbringing. Yang Jun had good taste.

"Comrade, that's my comrade, Yang Jun, he's 23 years old, serving the people. I don't know..."

Gu Qingning didn't think much about the tone of the introduction at the beginning, and was a little amused.

Yang Jun is a good-looking young man with a lot of energy, but he is too thin and not her type.

Gu Qingning was direct. "Thank you for your dedication to the people. Are you from Ling County too? Which brigade do you belong to? Maybe it's close to my in-laws' home. My girlfriend is about the same age as you, maybe we know each other."

The people around pricked up their ears and were a little disappointed when they heard this, because she was already married.

Yang Jun's face flushed with shame. This behavior was a bit careless, but he still put his thoughts aside.

Li Qiming was a little surprised. Is this from the brigade under Ling County? How come I haven't heard of it before?

In these ten miles and surrounding villages, is there any girl as pretty as her? Wouldn’t her door be visited by many people?

"We are from the Red Star Brigade, comrade, did you know that?"

How could she not know? What a coincidence, she didn't know either.

"I'm an educated youth sent to the countryside from the Red Star Brigade. My last name is Gu, and my partner's name is Lu Changqing."

Lu Changqing? The two exchanged glances. It was the Lu Changqing they were thinking of, the savage and ferocious wolf cub.

Damn, he didn’t join the army, but found himself a wife from the city. This guy is pretty good.

They all knew each other, which immediately shortened the distance between them. Li Qiming smiled brightly, "My name is Li Qiming, his name is Yang Jun, and we and Lu Changqing grew up together."

Seeing that Gu Qingning was well-behaved and obedient, Lu Changqing thought he was so lucky.

Yang Jun also looked at Gu Qingning, somewhat surprised that Lu Changqing had an awkward position in the Lu family.

Maybe I will be alone in this life, but I didn’t expect that I would be married soon?

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry for being so rude just now. Please don't take it to heart. Don't tell Brother Lu about what happened today." Li Qiming laughed and scratched his hair foolishly.

If Lu Changqing knew that his wife was being flirted with by him, wouldn't he be skinned alive? This was really bad luck.

Gu Qingning looked at the two young men, who were innocent and honest, and said, "Next time, don't be so reckless. It's not good if others see it."

Only Li Qiming was brave enough. No one else would dare to chat up a girl, otherwise they would be arrested as a hooligan.

The two men felt even more embarrassed when they saw how kind and generous Gu Qingning was.

After all, they were not familiar with each other, and after this incident, none of the three spoke again.

In the carriage, some older men were smoking their pipes, and the smell wasn't very pleasant, which made Gu Qingning feel a little uncomfortable.

The old lady next to her was still chattering, which made Gu Qingning feel even more uncomfortable.

It took two hours to drive from the provincial capital to the county town. When the car stopped, Gu Qingning wished she could fly.

"Sister-in-law, let me help you!"

Yang Jun directly carried Gu Qingning's bicycle down, and Li Qiming followed.

"Thank you."

Gu Qingning rode a bicycle, and the two of them went outside the county town and took a ox cart, and then they had to go their separate ways.

Gu Qingning tied her things to the back seat, went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few pounds of pork, some offal and marinade, and then planned to go back.

As April approaches, everything comes back to life and the air is filled with the fragrance of plants and trees.

The breeze made Gu Qingning feel refreshed.

Gu Qingning met Li Qiming and Yang Jun who were riding in an ox cart on the way, and the two nodded slightly.

Others were stunned.

"Was that Gu Zhiqing just now? She was riding a bicycle, right?"

"Oh my god, Gu Zhiqing has even bought a bicycle! It's such a rare thing! He's truly a city dweller. This is the first one in the brigade."

"In my entire life, I've only seen bicycles in other brigades. Gosh, I'll have to go back and take a closer look. Maybe I can even touch one."

A group of grown men were talking with their mouths drooling, dancing and gesticulating, so excited that it seemed as if they were the ones who bought the bicycles.

A stocky girl nearby snorted, "What's so great about that? A woman like that who doesn't know how to manage her life will end up with nothing sooner or later. She must have used the 300 yuan betrothal gift from the Lu family to buy a bicycle. What a spendthrift woman."

The girl worked all year round, and her face was rough, dark, and covered with pimples. She didn't look like she was in her twenties at all.

"You're being too sour. The money the Lu family gave Gu Zhiqing belongs to her. She can do whatever she wants. Why is there any need for you to be so sarcastic here? Could it be that Lu Si looks down on you and you're unwilling to accept it?"

"How could a man possibly be interested in you, such a tomboy? It's hard enough to support your family. Bah, your family is a dead end."

"Hahaha, take care of yourself. I heard that you haven't been able to find a partner yet. If you can't get married, other people's children will be able to help with soy sauce."

A group of people looked at Yang Xiaolan with mocking eyes. Who would be so foolish as to marry such a vampire?

Lu Changqing is not loved by anyone, but he is not lacking love.

Yang Xiaolan was so angry that she yelled, "Just wait and see, if you marry such a spendthrift woman, who knows who will be the one crying in the end."

Li Qiming couldn't bear to watch it any longer. "Don't worry, even if Gu Qingning is a loser, Lu Changqing won't look down on you. Lu Changqing is not blind."

"Hey, you don't have any unclear relationship with Gu Zhiqing, right? Otherwise, why would you speak for her?" Yang Xiaolan was so angry that she was yelling.

Li Qiming sneered, "Look carefully at my clothes! I won't do anything that would betray my identity. You are slandering the military."
