A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television.

The next morning, Lu Cheng got up early and prepared to stretch his muscles, but as soon as he walked out of the house, he saw He Xiu Lian was already busy in the yard, preparing to make a fire and cook.

Lu Cheng hurried over to help: "Let me help you light the fire."

"How can I ask you for help? Just take a rest. I'll do it. I can do it alone."

"No, let me help you. Two people can work faster. Haven't you heard the saying? Men and women working together will not make the work tiring."

He Xiulian smiled when she heard this: "Okay then, you light the fire and I'll bring you a bench."

Not long after, He Yaozong and Chang Youlin also came out. Seeing Lu Cheng and Xiu Lian cooking together, they smiled at each other.

The He family's conditions are indeed good. If they were in Shuangshui Village, only the family of the village party secretary Tian Futang could be compared.

Being able to make money by selling vinegar and doing some small business is definitely more money than farming.

Even though Lu Cheng was a barefoot doctor, his income was only equivalent to that of a strong laborer, which was nothing compared to that of people running small businesses.

Three meals a day, every meal has eggs, white flour buns and millet porridge, so there is definitely no lack of nutrition.

Nowadays, most rural families cannot even have a full meal a day, let alone enough nutrition.

This also makes rural people generally thinner. Coupled with years of hard work and exposure to the sun, there are few good-looking girls in rural areas.

For example, in Shuangshui Village, Tian Runye is the well-deserved village beauty.

Today, the He Xiu Lian sisters are considered village beauties in any village, which is inseparable from their family's living conditions.

After breakfast, Lu Cheng took the initiative to pick up the hoe and went to work in the fields with Xiu Lian.

He Yaozong did not stop them and let Lu Cheng and Xiu Lian spend more time together.

Lu Cheng was no stranger to farm work. After all, he was born in the countryside in his previous life and had worked in the fields a lot since coming to this world.

But when he started weeding in the fields, Lu Cheng found that he was not as good as He Xiu Lian, a woman.

To hoe the fields, all you have to do is bend your front legs, push with your hind legs, keep your steps steady and use force evenly, so that the weeds will die, the seedlings will grow, and the soil will become loose.

He Xiu Lian was obviously a head shorter than Lu Cheng, but her legs were very nimble, and her movements were steady, fast, and rhythmic.

Twenty-two-year-old He Xiu Lian looks like she has decades of experience in hoeing the fields.

Lu Cheng originally wanted to compete with her, but then he gave up and just kept doing it at his own pace.

"Brother Lu Cheng, if you are tired, just sit aside and take a rest. There is not much work to do in the field. I will finish it in a short while. It won't delay us from going back for lunch."

Lu Cheng could only wave his hand: "It's okay, I'm not tired, although I can't work as fast as you. But as long as I do more, you can do less. Don't be too anxious and tire yourself out."

"I'm not tired. I used to do it by myself. I have plenty of energy."

What else could Lu Cheng say? He could only say in his heart, what a real girl.

There is indeed not much work to do in the fields. The land on Ganshitan is small to begin with, even less than that in Shuangshui Village.

The two of them worked for more than an hour and finally hoed the land. Then they carried the hoes and walked home side by side.

Lu Cheng suddenly began to enjoy this kind of life. The two of them worked together, walked side by side, talked and laughed. There was no boss urging them to work overtime to revise the plan, no customers constantly giving them suggestions, and no need to sit in front of the computer all day. Life seemed to relax all of a sudden.

As soon as they returned home, He Yaozong called out, "Xiulian, Lu Cheng, wash your faces quickly. We won't cook today. Someone in the village is hosting a banquet. Let's go and eat together."

Lu Cheng put down his hoe and said, "Uncle, I won't go. After all, I'm not from the village."

"You should go too. You are a relative of our family. If you can, you should go. Don't worry, this is the rule here. When the time comes, our family will sit at the same table. You don't have to be too reserved."

"Yes, Lu Cheng, you should come along too."

Perhaps it is because the policies here have been relaxed, allowing ordinary people to run their own businesses and do some small business.

The entire Hejiawan is richer than Shuangshui Village, and the banquet was also very sumptuous, with more than a dozen plates and bowls, including meat, vegetables and soup.

In addition to Lu Cheng and the four members of the He family, there were three villagers from Hejiawan sitting at the table, and the scene was quite lively.

Lu Cheng felt like he was returning to his hometown in his previous life to attend a banquet.

However, in later generations, even at banquets, people can’t help but play with their mobile phones.

The banquets in this era are more lively and more enthusiastic.

Everyone sat together and clinked glasses, and no one treated Lu Cheng as an outsider at all.

After eating and drinking for a while, the two villagers sitting opposite Lu Cheng were obviously drunk. One of them looked at Lu Cheng and asked, "You young man, why do you look unfamiliar to me? What's your last name? Who are you from?"

Before Lu Cheng could start introducing himself, He Yaozong spoke up: "This is You Lin's sworn brother, from northern Shaanxi. His name is Lu Cheng."

Because Lu Cheng and Xiu Lian had not yet officially decided on their marriage, He Yaozong called Lu Cheng his son-in-law's sworn brother.

The man shook his head after hearing this, and then asked, "Lu Cheng, what's your last name?"

He Yaozong laughed: "Sixth Brother, you are drunk today, the person's last name must be Lu."

The villager next to him also laughed: "Old Six is ​​drunk. You two should not mind it. You are getting married today, so just have a baby as soon as possible."

Chang Youlin also laughed: "Uncle Lao Wu, you are still talking about others. You are also drunk. Today is not their wedding."

He Xiuying couldn't help but laugh: "That's right, everything is a mess, you guys should just keep drinking."

A villager raised his glass and held it in front of Lu Cheng: "No matter where you are from, it is fate that we are sitting here drinking together today. Come on, keep drinking."

The elders toasted, and even though Lu Cheng couldn't drink much, he could only raise his glass again. Just as he was about to drink it in one gulp, He Xiulian, who was sitting next to him, snatched his glass away: "He can't drink anymore, I'll drink it for him."

Without further ado, He Xiu Lian swallowed it in one gulp.

Lu Cheng watched He Xiu Lian drink one glass after another and was a little surprised. How could this girl be so strong? She could drink better than him.

Who knew that just as Lu Cheng was thinking this, he saw He Xiu Lian drink another glass of wine, then tilt her head and lean on Lu Cheng's shoulder.

Fortunately, everyone had almost finished drinking and was about to leave.

He Yaozong and Chang Youlin were obviously drunk. He Xiuying supported Xiulian and said to Lu Cheng, "Lu Cheng, Xiulian is drunk. I'd like to trouble you to carry her back."

Lu Cheng did not hesitate. He stood up, carried Xiulian on his back and walked towards Xiulian's home.

But Lu Cheng drank a lot today. It wasn't obvious when he was sitting down, but when he stood up, carrying someone on his back, he felt a little dizzy. Fortunately, he could still walk, and He Xiuying helped him move forward.

At this moment, Lu Cheng did not notice that He Xiu Lian, who was carried on his back, turned around and smiled at her sister.

He carried He Xiu Lian back home with one step deep and one step shallow, and with the help of He Xiuying, he helped her back to the house. Lu Cheng also went back to the room next door and fell asleep.

What happened next happened naturally. Lu Cheng and He Xiu Lian got engaged and planned to get married in the summer three months later.

Although the marriage was settled, the He family enthusiastically kept Lu Cheng for several more days before letting him leave.

Now that the marriage has been arranged, according to the local rules, He Xiu Lian must also follow Lu Cheng to Shuangshui Village to take a look.

Therefore, this time when he went back, Lu Cheng also brought He Xiu Lian with him.

He Xiulian also packed some clothes and prepared to stay in Shuangshui Village for a few days...
