Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back

In order to save time, Shi Yan and Su Heng simply used the leftover broth from last night, threw in some noodles, and mixed it up.

Obviously, the two of them were moving fast enough, but when they arrived at the threshing ground with the bags of grain, there was already a long line there.

Shi Yan and Su Heng joined the team silently, thinking that the waiting process would be boring and long.

But before the two of them stood there for a while, someone came up to them.

"Oh, is this Lei Zi from the Shi family? He is getting more and more handsome, and looks like a city boy!"

The voice was deliberately drawn out, with obvious sarcasm.

The fat aunt, wearing a red floral cotton jacket, with her hair neatly combed and a smile on her face, spoke affectionately.

Shi Yan recalled the identity of the aunt in front of her and realized that she was Aunt Qing, a well-known blessed woman in the area.

The family had a small fortune, one son and one daughter, and the couple lived in harmony. Families who were getting married often asked Aunt Qing to comb their daughters' hair before going out.

She herself is a warm-hearted person with a wide network of contacts, and is willing to help her fellow villagers and act as a matchmaker.

Seeing Aunt Qing coming over without rushing to line up, Shi Yan had a bad feeling.

He could only be patient and shyly pull the corner of his mouth towards Aunt Qing, revealing a shy smile.

"Oh, with this smile, you look even more handsome."

"I was able to eat meat yesterday, all thanks to you! You are beautiful and capable. If anyone could marry you, their ancestors would be so proud!"

"Leizi, I remember you will be 19 next year, right?"

Aunt Qing had a smile on her face and while speaking, she reached out and patted Shi Yan's shoulder and arm.

After making sure that the touch of his hand was firm, the smile on his face deepened.

Shi Yan: "Yes, auntie."

"Oh, you are still young and promising. You are the only one left in your family. It's time to think about continuing the family line."

"Leizi, what kind of girl do you like? I know a few people who can help you find one?!"

Shi Yan coughed twice and could only shirk the responsibility: "Aunt, I'm still young. Besides, my mother just passed away. Let's wait a few years."

But Shi Yan was not in a hurry, but Aunt Qing was.

"What do you mean you're still young? When I was your age, your brother Huzi could run all over the place."

"Besides, your mother finally gave you this child to the Shi family. She must be looking forward to your growth day and night so that you can carry on the family line."

"Don't be so formal with me. Just tell me what kind of girl you like. I'll take care of the rest."

While speaking, Aunt Qing patted her chest in a heroic manner, which made Shi Yan feel a little stuck and she had to talk nonsense.

"I like pretty, gentle, nice-voiced, educated women, preferably from the city. After all, I haven't received much education. If I have children in the future, the children's mother must be knowledgeable and experienced, so that they can have a bright future..."

Shi Yan's conditions fully demonstrated that she was an extremely superficial person. The more she talked about it, the more smiling Aunt Qing's expression became uglier.

"Leizi, even though you are good-looking, we are all peasants who have been digging for food in the fields all our lives. It is not easy to find a girl from the city."

"Besides, look at your family's situation. You don't have much savings, and you don't have parents to help you. Why don't you reconsider it? There are still many good girls for blind dating in our village."

Aunt Qing felt from the bottom of her heart that Shi Yan's conditions were a little fantastic. She felt that she had good intentions but was fooled.

So they spoke unconsciously in a loud voice, and the members queuing around them could hear their conversation clearly.

"Yes, young man from the Shi family, you can't just look at the appearance when choosing a wife."

"Yes, yes, yes. For someone like you, you still need to find someone who is capable and can give birth."

"Girls in the city are only good looking but useless, so forget it!"

"Girls in the city are not as good as girls in our village. They are good at home and in the fields."

"........."

The members who were close to her all echoed Aunt Qing's words. After all, every family has relatives to marry into.

No one would want to offend a blessed person like Aunt Qing.

As the members chatted with each other, Aunt Qing's unhappy expression gradually improved.

However, Shi Yan had no intention of changing her mind. After all, as a "gay man", she was destined to not be able to start a family.

Now that I have an image of being beautiful and picky in front of the villagers, I can live a lot more peacefully in the future.

"Aunt, that's all I think. If you can't find it, then look for it. If you can't find it, then it's just not fate. Sorry to make you worry."

After Shi Yan said this, no matter how good-tempered Aunt Qing was, she was too lazy to continue to argue.

"Okay, I don't know what you young people are thinking, but just don't regret it!"

Aunt Qing was in a bad mood. Before leaving, she patted Shi Yan hard on the shoulder and then turned away. As soon as she left, the people who had been joining in the fun also dispersed.

As the crowd dispersed, Shi Yan, who was originally in the center of the crowd, was immediately spotted by Zhang Heng who was outside the crowd.

When Zhang Heng saw that there was something lively going on, he left others in line and hurried over. Liang Rou, who was standing next to him, also followed closely behind Zhang Heng and came over.

"Xiao Lei, Su Zhiqing, you guys came so early. We are the last one in line!"

Zhang Heng spoke first, followed by Liang Rou:

"Comrade Shi, Su Zhiqing, hello, I came here specially to thank you!"

"Thanks to you guys for killing the wolf yesterday, we were able to eat some meat again at the Youth League Point yesterday!"

Liang Rou didn't wear a military coat today. Instead, she wore a blue floral cotton jacket and two big braids. Her face was slightly flushed because of the wind.

The whole person looks like a fragile beauty.

The tone of her voice was particularly sincere, and there was a hint of admiration in her eyes as she looked at Shi Yan.

Being looked at like this by Liang Rou, Shi Yan did not feel proud, but suddenly felt a little creepy.

After all, Liang Rou's appearance was such a coincidence. He had just talked nonsense about his standards for choosing a partner, and now someone who met the requirements completely appeared.

And he looked at me with such admiring eyes.

"Yesterday was just a coincidence. The wolf was already injured, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to subdue it. Besides, it was Brother Heng who actually killed the wolf yesterday. Don't praise me."

Shi Yan immediately pushed Su Heng, who had been silent, forward to block him from Liang Rou's sight.

In order to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.

The most important thing is that the original owner's wish was just to let Liang Rou see her good side. Now she has seen it, but she cannot develop any other inappropriate feelings.

At this moment, Su Heng, who was pushed out, felt more and more uncomfortable the more he looked at Liang Rou.

Su Heng is not a stupid man. Just now when Aunt Qing said she wanted to introduce a boyfriend to Shi Yan, he felt very uncomfortable.

At this moment, a person appears who completely meets Shi Yan's standards for a partner and who she had once expressed affection for.

A strong sense of crisis came over Su Heng, making him feel that if he didn't do something, he would definitely regret it!
