The man was good-looking, the tallest among the group. Although his skin was slightly darker due to tanning by the sun, it was still a bit whiter than the others. His slightly long hair was combed into a 3:7 split, and when he smiled at the person next to him, two dimples could be vaguely seen.

Xu Yan watched him smiling at other female educated youth, and the discomfort in his heart became more and more intense.

But she couldn't explain why she suddenly had this emotion, as this was clearly the first time she met this person.

Could it be because of the original owner?

the other side.

After Han Xiaoyu and the others walked forward a few steps, they saw Xu Yan standing in the yard staring at them. No, to be more precise, it was Xu Yan who was staring directly at Han Xiaoyu.

A man who was so thin that he seemed to be nothing but a bag of bones stood blankly in the sun, his eyes half-closed by the strong light, and his lips, which were dry and chapped, instinctively lifted up and forced out a flattering smile the moment he saw the person coming.

Xu Yan: “…”

I have a dirty word in my mind but I don’t know whether I should say it or not!

She lowered the corner of her mouth and continued to look at Han Xiaoyu.

The smile on Han Xiaoyu's face disappeared the first time he saw Xu Yan. When he saw Xu Yan's undisguised gaze and smile again, his face instantly darkened, and there was a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Xu Yan: “…”

Xu Yan had good eyesight, so of course he noticed the change in Han Xiaoyu's expression. He cursed out loud again in his mind, but he managed not to show any other expression on his face.

"A toad wants to eat swan flesh," Zhou Jingjing, who was originally in the dormitory and came outside at some point, made a sarcastic remark.

It is no secret among the entire educated youth center that Xu Yan likes Han Xiaoyu.

It was well known to all the educated youth that Han Xiaoyu didn't like Xu Yan.

"Brother Xiao Yu is so unlucky that he has been pestered by such people all the time," said Liang Qian, a younger female educated youth, who was originally smiling. However, when she saw Xu Yan, her expression immediately changed and she rolled her eyes in disgust.

"Stop talking," Ye Wei, another female educated youth who had arrived two years earlier than them, pulled Liang Qian's arm.

"I'll tell you!" Liang Qian's voice was loud to begin with, and after being persuaded by her, her voice became even louder. "She can do such a shameful thing, and she's still afraid of what others say?"

"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? You still dream of being a lazy toad and eating swan meat," Liang Qian's curse was very unpleasant, and her voice was so loud that not only in the yard, but also outside the yard could hear it clearly.

Han Xiaoyu frowned when he heard her words, but did not say anything to stop her.

No one else said anything. They looked at Xu Yan, then at Han Xiaoyu, and went straight to the kitchen.

However, Xu Yan still stood there without any reaction. I don’t know if she was pretending not to hear anything or if she was so thick-skinned that scolding her was useless.

Actually neither.

When Xu Yan was staring at Han Xiaoyu, he suddenly received some of the original owner's memories, and then found himself in a period novel that he had read before.

She said why the name "Brother Xiao Yu" sounded so familiar!

He is the male protagonist of that period novel!

Han Xiaoyu in the period novel is handsome and intelligent. Although he is temporarily trapped in the countryside and living a hard life, he not only has the buff bonus of being "loved by everyone", but also has the luck to succeed in everything he does.

Especially after he married Sun Jiarou, the daughter of the brigade secretary, everything became smoother. They loved each other, struggled together, and went through difficult times together. Finally, after the college entrance examination was resumed in 1977, they were admitted to university together. Finally, in the s, they went into business and became nationally famous rich people.

This novel tells the story of their beautiful and pure love and their struggle to change their lives in that era.

And she, Xu Yan.

She is just one of the many fanatical pursuers of the male protagonist. Her main role is to highlight the male protagonist's unique masculine charm and to highlight the female protagonist's good qualities of being gentle, virtuous and good at housekeeping in this era.

Commonly known as, cannon fodder.

The original text does not explain Xu Yan's family background very clearly. It only says that her parents work in City B, her family is well off, and that her brother is married. His wife is also a factory employee with a stable job. There is nothing else to say.

But Xu Yan still has some memories about the original owner in his mind. Although it is incomplete, he can piece together a general idea.

In the original owner's memory, her family had arranged a good job for her. She could go to work in a factory immediately after graduating from high school, but she also met Han Xiaoyu during that period.

It was love at first sight.

Han Xiaoyu, who had not yet gone to the countryside to join the production team, also had fair skin, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a handsome appearance. He was the tallest among all the male classmates. When he smiled at people, he unexpectedly made eye contact with the original owner.

It was at that glance that the original owner suddenly felt that the flowers in her heart had fully blossomed at that moment.

Han Xiaoyu is two years older than her, but because he started school later, he graduated in the same year as the original owner. There are many people in his family, with four or five brothers and sisters. He is the eldest and his conditions are not very good. He has no way to find a job in the city, so he can only go to the countryside to join the production team.

When the original owner found out, he insisted on going to the countryside with them no matter what.

When her parents disagreed, she made a fuss and even registered at the Youth League Office without telling her family.

But somehow this matter was spread by someone with ulterior motives, and people in the factory compound were talking about it. Everyone said that the daughter of the Xu family had no self-respect and was shameless, and that she was rushing to get close to a man. No one knew how her family taught her.

When Mr. Xu heard this, he was almost angry to death.

Later, the crisis was resolved when Han Xiaoyu's parents suddenly came to propose marriage.

That’s right, the original owner was engaged to Han Xiaoyu.

Just before they went to the countryside.

But this matter was the idea of ​​Han's parents. Han Xiaoyu did not express his unwillingness in front of everyone, but privately told the original owner that he just couldn't stand people gossiping about her because of him, so he agreed to his parents' proposal.

If they went to the countryside, the two of them would still have nothing to do with each other, and the original owner could not tell anyone about this "helping" relationship.

Xu Yan: “…”

Recalling this, Xu Yan was so angry that he laughed.

Others may not know the situation, but how could she, who has read the book carefully from beginning to end, not know who spread the rumor?

Although the original author did not write in detail, she was sure that it was Han Xiaoyu's mother!

It’s all for the Xu family’s connections and money.

Moreover, the book vaguely mentioned several times later that the Xu family helped the Han family many times because of their daughter's affairs, and even found a job for Han's younger brother.

Of course, these are all later stories, so let’s put them aside for now. Let’s just talk about Han Xiaoyu. He is described so well in the book, but why is the reality so different?

And "help"!

Help him a big head ghost!

Xu Yan didn't believe that he didn't know his parents' intentions. After all, he "accidentally" let slip that the original owner liked him to his younger brothers and sisters at home, and then his younger brothers and sisters told his parents.

Finally, this marriage proposal scene happened.

Moreover, when Han Xiaoyu told the original owner that they could not tell anyone about their fiancé/wife relationship in the countryside, he looked like he was being wronged for her.

No, brother, it's Oscar's loss that I can't have you attend the Oscars.

Really, you are so good!

Xu Yan was so angry that he couldn't recall anything.

The original owner was happy like a fool.

No, she's just a fool.

She kept the secret until her death, and even believed that she would be able to marry Han Xiaoyu.

After all, the two of them had already gotten engaged in front of their parents and other people.

No matter what Han Xiaoyu said, the engagement was a fact.

after that……

The original owner got his wish and followed Han Xiaoyu to the countryside.

Although her parents were angry with her, they could not bear to see her suffer as they had raised her in their hands, so they mailed her a lot of things in just half a year.

However, the original owner was a brainless and ultimate bootlicker. In order to please Han Xiaoyu, she not only gave him all the good things, but also moved herself to eat less when eating, leaving the thick rice for Han Xiaoyu.

then……

The original owner drank porridge that tasted like water and ate bran that made his throat ache. He often didn't even feel full and could only occasionally go to the fields to dig up some licorice or other wild vegetables to fill his stomach.

When he first read this novel, Xu Yan scolded the original owner many times, thinking that she was mentally ill. He was also curious about how this Han Xiaoyu looked like a fairy that could make people so obsessed.

Now that she has met him in person, she feels he is just average.

It's really average.

Not to mention in the 24 years when all kinds of exquisite idol faces have emerged one after another, even in this era, he is not as handsome as the brother in the original owner's memory.

So, how did he manage to make the original owner so confused?

What surprised and puzzled Xu Yan even more was that the things in the original owner's memory were very different from those in the book. The book only said that the original owner used self-touching methods to please Han Xiaoyu in order to get food, but it never mentioned that the original owner gave all the things mailed by her parents to Han Xiaoyu.

What the hell is going on...

Although Xu Yan couldn't figure out all the details yet, she was sure that the original owner's memory should be more credible than what was in the book.

After all, in the book it was mainly used to set off the protagonist, but the original owner actually lived here for eighteen years.

Unfortunately, just a few days before his 19th birthday, he fell into the river and drowned.

Xu Yan's eyes darkened.

Seeing that Xu Yan was still staring at him blankly, as if his eyes were attached to his body, Han Xiaoyu's eyes were filled with even more disgust. With a cold face, he walked around Xu Yan and went to the kitchen with the things in his hand.

"How shameless," Liang Qian snorted again.

When passing by Xu Yan, he deliberately squeezed her. Xu Yan was weak to begin with, and she stumbled and fell to the ground.

Xu Yan, who was suddenly forced to come back to his senses: "..."

When she saw the people at the educated youth point bullying the original owner, she just thought that "Xu Yan" really deserved it.

She has such good parents who love her, but she can abandon her family affection to pursue illusory love. She is really crazy.

Love-brained people should also be punished!

But now, she knew that some of the descriptions in the original text were different, and that the person being bullied had become her...

She couldn't stand it anymore.

She is not in love, why should she suffer like this?
