Even if there were onlookers, it would not be the right thing to do to interrupt her many times. Her words may be fair and flawless in the eyes of her father, but the outside world may interpret them differently: just because of the father-daughter relationship rather than fair speech.

"That's partly the reason." The father shook off the ash from his cigarette, stared at Su Wanwan in front of him, and said meaningfully: "What's the matter? Are you scared after seeing the excitement? Are you still worried about what I will say?"

Su Wanwan knew that although her father looked stern, he still loved her the most. This embarrassment and shyness made her look up in shame, but she unexpectedly saw strange expressions on her parents' faces.

What happened between the two of them today? Her father's next words made her cheeks flush with a rare blush: "Come on, tell me, are you really interested in the third son of the Xu family?" This sudden question seemed to make time stop at this moment, and her heartbeat was like a beating war drum, which made her feel palpitating.

Realizing her own reaction, Su Wanwan was also frightened.

This...it seems that she really cares about Xu Yan?

Whenever it comes to Xu Yan's affairs, it clearly touches her heart.

"Silly girl, do I need to tell you more? You never cared about the big and small things in the village before. You always chased after that educated youth named Yan, but you never looked so haggard."

At this point, Su Yang paused, "But with so many things happening to the Xu family, you are always the first one to show concern, especially after Xu Yan left. You go out almost every day to inquire about the Xu family's news. During the last two meals at the Xu family, you even helped to smooth things over. I am not old and my eyes are not blurry, so I can see what you are thinking."

Before my father finished speaking, my mother in the kitchen pulled up the curtain and came over with a wet rag: "Look, the third child of the Xu family disappeared at that time. How much weight did our girl lose?"

Zhao Ying's words made Su Wanwan subconsciously touch her waist. She was originally thin, and she had been unable to eat recently. Looking at herself from head to toe, she found that she had indeed become thinner.

"Dad, Mom, I..."

She thought she had hidden her little actions well, but her parents saw through them without a doubt.

Although she felt embarrassed, she also had a kind of expectation. Father and Mother Su always loved her like a treasure, and all the good things in the house were given to her. Even though her mother had some resentment towards Yan Wenxuan before, it did not stop her from secretly saving eggs to give to him.

And what are the parents' attitude towards Xu Yan?

"The Xu family used to be well-behaved people in the village, but how capable are these three boys? They actually managed to get two cars back and came back unscathed."

After Su Yang's father finished smoking a cigarette, he seemed to start thinking about a difficult problem, then lit up the second one. Zhao Ying's gaze also turned to the rag in his hand.

"Mom and Dad...Xu Yan is not the person you think he is..." Su Wanwan tried to defend Xu Yan, but just as she was about to say this, she felt that the timing was wrong.

At this time, everyone seems to have a fixed pattern. Once someone is different from the ordinary, they will be regarded as an alien. However, people always have the mentality of pursuing a better life and making plans for the future. However, she could not tell her parents all this, after all, they still live under the rules of this era.

"Dad knows it, and he also understands that the third child of the Xu family is not a bad person."

While smoking his second cigarette, Su Yang's father's tone softened: "Although the Xu family's status is unclear now, it is hard to predict what their third son will be like in the future. Your mother and I will not stop you from having any good feelings for him because of his family's affairs."

"Dad..." She thought her father would stop them from approaching because of family matters, but she didn't expect her father to change the subject...

Before she could say anything, tears welled up in Su Wanwan's eyes.

"Wanwan, you are a grown-up girl now. In this new era, we support young people's free love. But regarding the matter of the third son of the Xu family and those properties of unknown origin, you have to think carefully. It would be fine if it just passed like this, but if there are any accidents in the future... you can only face everything alone." Mother Zhao Ying rubbed the rag, her words revealing concern.

"Well, you and the third son of the Xu family haven't decided yet, so why bother so much in advance? Just let them get along well." Father Su Yang put out his second cigarette and said to Su Wanwan seriously, "There is one more thing. Our village and Baihua Village have an exchange program, which may allow young people to go there for study and exchange."

Will I transfer to Baihua Village to go to school?

As it happened, my mother was the first to deny it and said, "You are currently working at the village radio station and are an important contact for the villagers. If you are asked to go to Baihua Village, who will do the broadcasting?"

If he changes his place of study, Xu Yan may also get a chance...

The glimmer of expectation that had just risen was ruthlessly shattered by my mother.

After careful consideration, I realized that what my mother said was not wrong. If I really went to the neighboring village to learn, the radio station that had been restored would definitely need others to fill the gap. For the villagers, being a broadcaster was less well paid, but it was easy and comfortable. They only needed to read the manuscript in the morning, unlike other people who had to work on the farm all day.

Especially for those girls in the village who are eager to build a career, you can imagine how much they yearn for this job. If Su Wanwan was not the daughter of the village chief, the competition would be extremely fierce. Su Wanwan always feels helpless behind people's envious eyes, because they don't understand the difficulty of writing behind it.

In comparison, the work of herding cattle or feeding pigs for the production team was more arduous, so her position as a broadcaster was relatively comfortable. However, her current position was based on going to the radio station every day. Once she left to study in a neighboring village, her position might be given to someone else. It is uncertain whether her voice in the radio station would remain the same after she returns in the future.

How long will this exchange study mission last?

"The task is light, not onerous, and it won't take long. I read the document and it says it will only take about half a month." It was obvious that Su Yang's father had thought deeply about this issue.

"Wanwan has been growing up in the village and has never really traveled far away or lived independently. Although Baihua Village is not very eye-catching, it is still a certain distance away from us. It is beneficial for her to go there to study alone and broaden her horizons. It will be beneficial for her growth to make more friends with different people."

Although this was what her father Su Yang said to her mother Zhao Ying, Su Wanwan couldn't help but feel sad when she heard this. Before she traveled to this identity, she was almost alone and had no relatives in her previous life. She had experienced the bitterness and ruthlessness of life when she was young.

This time she met parents who loved her so much, not only doting on her but also caring about her future plans. So she made a vow: "Dad, I won't let you down, I will do my best."

"Well, since you have made up your mind, go pack your bags. You may have to stay there for half a month. Regarding the radio station..." Su Yang continued, taking out a cigarette and lighting it slowly. He knew that Secretary Wang admired her work very much, and if he was away for half a month, it would probably cause trouble for someone else to take her place temporarily, and there were not so many pleasant voices in the village who could do this job.
