Quick Wear: The Short-lived Female Supporting Character Does Not Want to Be a Heartthrob

The two thought it was a snake, and Wan Ning and Ling Yao were so frightened that they dared not move.

At the same time, Wan Ning was moving slowly backwards, for she was afraid that something would really jump out from inside.

As a result, the two of them held their breath and watched for a few minutes, and half of a chicken head emerged from inside.

Hey, it turns out to be a pheasant!

Wan Ning and Ling Yao looked at each other and felt so lucky. If they caught it, they could eat pheasant meat today.

The two men put down their baskets and walked to different sides, intending to surround the chicken.

As a result, this pheasant is really hard to catch.

When it sees it is about to be caught, it runs away immediately.

"It's running too fast. Otherwise, let's not catch it."

Wan Ning was sweating from running, and was a little distance away from where the backpack was originally placed, so Wan Ning decided to give up.

Ling Yao also frowned: "Really, what a pity."

Unexpectedly, at this time, the sound of a pheasant "clucking" was heard. Looking forward, it was caught by Ye Chuyan, who was holding a basket with the chicken pressed inside.

"Hey, Ye Zhiqing."

Ye Chuyan nodded at the two of them: "Did you find it? It's okay, I caught it for you."

Wan Ning smiled and glanced at Ling Yao: "Ye Zhiqing is also very capable. If you weren't in front, the chicken would have run away long ago."

Then the three of them chatted and laughed, and worked together to catch the chicken. They tied its legs with straw ropes, so they were no longer afraid of the chicken running away.

When they returned to where Wan Ning and the others had put their backpacks, Ling Yao asked Ye Chuyan, "Ye Zhiqing, why are you alone? Where is the person you were with just now?"

"They went somewhere else, so I just looked for them on my own."

In fact, he didn't want to get too close to Xiao Jiajia. She had always been very attentive to him. As a normal man, he certainly knew what she meant.

But Ye Chuyan didn't like Xiao Jiajia, so he could only find an excuse to leave.

Ling Yao nodded: "Okay, if Ye Zhiqing doesn't want to go alone, you can accompany us."

Ye Chuyan nodded: "Okay, thank you very much."

After that, the three of us went down the mountain together after strolling for about two hours.

Because they were not going in the same direction, Wan Ning watched Ling Yao and Ye Chuyan walk west while she walked east.

When they got home, Xiao Jiachen was at home. When he saw Wan Ning coming back, he immediately went to take the backpack from her back.

"You're finally back?" Wan Ning said cheerfully, "You don't know, we just caught a pheasant in the mountains, and we plan to eat it together tonight."

Because three people caught the pheasant, they had to share it. But because Ling Yao and Wan Ning were both at the villager's house, it would be difficult to share it if they cooked it together.

Fortunately, Ye Chuyan lived in the Youth League Institute and had his own stove to cook, so he could borrow someone else's pot to cook the pheasant.

Xiao Jiachen found out who Wan Ning was talking about and nodded: "Okay, go eat, and bring back some dried mushrooms from home."

"Chicken stewed with mushrooms? Haha, it tastes delicious just thinking about it."

Wan Ning felt hungry again and was looking forward to the delicious pheasant.

However, Xiao Jiachen took out two things directly from the kitchen and handed them to her. Wan Ning took a look and found that there was a string of candied haws and fried sugar rings.

"Ah, you're going to town?"

Xiao Jiachen nodded, "Yes, I bought it when I came back."

"Has Auntie eaten?"

"My mother doesn't like these, so I bought other ones."

When Wan Ning heard that Chen Zaohua had it, he immediately took it over. "Have you eaten?"

Xiao Jiachen frowned: "I don't like it, it's too sour."

"Haha, then you have to eat even more."

Wan Ning smiled and said, "I'll eat a few and give you the rest. You should try something this delicious."

In the end, the two of them shared a candied haws, and the fried sugar rings were taken as lunch, and the three of them ate it together.

In the afternoon, Wan Ning went to find Ling Yao early, and they went to the Youth League Institute together.

After the three of them had a good time cooking in front of the open-air stove, they each got a bowl of meat and vegetables. Because other vegetables were also added to the pot, the rest was shared among the other educated youth.

After the meal, Ling Yao and Ye Chuyan were fighting over the task of washing the dishes and pots. Wan Ning refused to do it: "You still have to fight for a job? You two should just work together."

At the same time, because they were rushing to wash the dishes just now, other people in the Youth League Institute saw it and started making jokes, which instantly made Ling Yao and Ye Chuyan blush.

Ling Yao secretly looked at Ye Chuyan. She now liked paying attention to him more and more.

Ling Yao lowered her head and smiled, her face turned even redder.

********

Before we knew it, winter has arrived.

Wan Ning put on the new cotton-padded jacket sent by her family. The village organized villagers and educated youth to dig holes on the embankment and widen the river channel to prevent the backflow of river water caused by excessive rainfall in the coming year.

Xiao Jiachen also went, because he was the nephew of the village chief and a strong young man, it would be inappropriate if he didn't go. What's more, there were centimeters to be collected, which would be distributed as money or food later.

Chen Zaohua would chat with people she knew in the village. Generally, rural women made shoe soles and weaved wheat straw. After they were done, they could take them to the town, where people would buy them.

On this day, when no one was home, Wan Ning would lock the door, move a stool to bask in the sun, and when he got warm, he would go back to the house to read.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door and Wan Ning shouted, "Who is it?"

It seemed to be Xiao Jiachen's voice. Wan Ning hurriedly got out of the quilt, put on his shoes and went to the yard to open the door.

"It's really you, why did you come back so early today?"

In the past, those who went out to work would come back almost dark.

Xiao Jiachen smiled and closed the door with his backhand: "I have something to do today, so I didn't go."

Wan Ning nodded: "Oh, so that's what I was thinking."

"What do you do at home?"

Xiao Jiachen was still holding something in his hand. Wan Ning didn't know what he was holding, but she wanted to go back to the house now.

Seeing Wan Ning was about to leave, Xiao Jiachen immediately grabbed her sleeve and said, "I have something good for you, let's go."

So he strode forward and went to Wanning's room first.

Pushing open the half-open door, Xiao Jiachen saw several books placed beside the kang and knew that Wan Ning was reading again.

He asked Wan Ning to close the door, unbuttoned his military coat, and took out a ball of red from inside.

"Here, put it on and see if it looks good."

Wan Ning took it and felt it was quite soft. He tore it open and saw: "It's a scarf. Ha, did you buy this for me?"

After touching it, Wan Ning hung it around his neck and circled it twice, then looked up and asked Xiao Jiachen, "Does it look good?"

"Yeah, it looks good. It makes your face look even better, white and rosy."

Wan Ning smiled and said, "This elementary school was not in vain. I even used idioms."

Seeing Wan Ning happily stroking the red scarf around her neck, Xiao Jiachen was also very happy.

He had seen people wearing this scarf in town and imagined that the red one would look better on Wan Ning. However, when he went to the supply and marketing cooperative, the salesperson said that only a few had been purchased and they were already sold out, so he waited for a while.

I went to town to do some work today and bought it.
