Following her parents' demotion, she married a soldier and became a relative of the chief of th

"Comrade Jiang Ye, you are going to the threshing ground too, right?"

"Well, my mom insisted that I go, saying that I was contributing to the collective, and it would be a waste not to eat the collective meal, and it would also save me from having to cook at home."

"That's right, it would be a waste if I didn't eat it. I want to go to the threshing ground too, let's go together."

"Okay." Someone wanted it more than anything.

They were talking as they walked, and this scene happened to be seen by Zhang Xiaoyan.

Zhang Xiaoyan gritted her teeth. Her guess was absolutely correct. Jiang Ye was really with Xu Nuannuan. They were talking and laughing while walking, which immediately made Zhang Xiaoyan very angry.

Xu Nuannuan is a new educated youth who has only been here for three or four days, but she has become so familiar with Jiang Ye. It seems that their relationship is even better than when she and Jiang Ye had known each other for more than ten years.

She couldn't help but recall that she had dinner at Jiang Ye's house the day after Xu Nuannuan came, and that she helped Xu Nuannuan go to the county town yesterday. Now they were so close, as if they were a couple.

Perhaps because Xu Nuannuan was too beautiful, and Jiang Ye was usually aloof and aloof, she subconsciously thought that Xu Nuannuan had seduced Jiang Ye.

She couldn't let Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan become a couple, otherwise those treasures would fall into Xu Nuannuan's hands in the future.

She really wanted to go over and push Xu Nuannuan away, telling her not to get so close to Jiang Ye, but after thinking about it, she calmed down.

He walked over and greeted Jiang Ye first: "Brother Jiang Ye, why are you here just now? Dinner is almost ready."

Jiang Ye raised his eyes and glanced at her casually: "It's not too late for me to come now."

Zhang Xiaoyan smiled awkwardly: "Brother Jiang Ye, you really can't be idle for a moment. You were making furniture at home again just now."

“If you promise someone a delivery date, you must deliver within the stipulated time, otherwise you are breaking your promise.”

Jiang Ye spoke to her as if mechanically, his tone was stiff and a little cold.

Zhang Xiaoyan was annoyed. He couldn't be a little warm when talking to her. He always looked cold. He was even smiling when he was talking to Xu Nuannuan just now.

She deliberately looked at Xu Nuannuan again: "This educated youth looks unfamiliar, he must be new here."

"Yes, I'm a new educated youth who came this year."

Xu Nuannuan could see that the girl in front of her had no good intentions, but since she knew Jiang Ye, she gave her some face.

Zhang Xiaoyan asked Xu Nuannuan again: "So you just came a few days ago, only three or four days at most, but you seem to be very familiar with Brother Jiang Ye."

Xu Nuannuan smiled and said, "Just because I've been here for a short time, can't I get to know Comrade Jiang Ye better? Who are you to be so nosy?"

Xu Nuannuan just needs to let her say it.

"I, I am." She originally wanted to tell Xu Nuannuan directly that she was Jiang Ye's fiancée, but when she thought about Jiang Ye's personality, she was afraid that Jiang Ye would be disgusted if she told him the truth too early. "I grew up with Jiang Ye."

"But I don't know you very well." Jiang Ye said.

"Brother Jiang Ye, our two families have a very good relationship."

"That's all between adults. You and I have no relationship." They had unknowingly arrived outside the grain field. Jiang Ye saw Zhang's parents and said to Zhang Xiaoyan, "Your parents are over there. Go find them quickly."

Zhang Xiaoyan was very angry. Jiang Ye drove her away because he was afraid that she would delay him and Xu Nuannuan from being together?

Her face darkened and she said, "Brother Jiang Ye, I just saw you alone with this educated youth. I have to remind you of something. You're a bachelor, and if you're with someone, aren't you afraid that others will gossip about this educated youth? You should be considerate of them."

Xu Nuannuan smiled, "I'm not afraid. Comrade Jiang Ye and I just met on the street, and we didn't do anything shameful. Comrade Jiang Ye is not afraid of what others will say when he's alone with me, and I don't mind either. As for you, you don't have to worry about that either."

Jiang Ye nodded: "Xu Zhiqing is right."

Zhang Xiaoyan's eyes gradually turned green. The two of them sang in unison, like a loving couple, making her seem like the third party.

No, she couldn't let Xu Nuannuan take Jiang Ye away.

She changed the subject and said to Jiang Ye, "Since this educated youth has done Aunt Mei a favor, I should repay her. Brother Jiang Ye, I want to make friends with this educated youth. I hope I can help her in the future."

Anyway, she just wanted to stay by their side and stop Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan from getting along.

Xu Nuannuan chuckled: "I've made quite a few friends here, and I don't want to make new friends for the time being. I might disappoint your kindness."

"But I want to help Aunt Mei repay you."

Jiang Ye said, "This is our family's business. It has nothing to do with you. You don't need to do anything to repay us."

"I." Zhang Xiaoyan wanted to say that they would be related in the future, but after all, she hadn't been engaged to Jiang Ye yet, so she could only say implicitly: "Think about it, your grandfather and my grandfather have such a good relationship, the relationship between our two families is almost like a family. I have always regarded your grandfather as my own grandfather. Isn't it my responsibility to share your worries?"

Jiang Ye: "But I don't think the relationship between our two families is that good."

He didn't know what the relationship between his grandfather and Old Man Zhang was like before he could remember, but since he could remember, his family didn't have much contact with the Zhang family. Although Zhang Xiaoyan liked to go to his house, she usually would bring something home. He had no good feelings for this woman, but rather some disgust.

"Brother Jiang Ye, you haven't been home for these years. Maybe we haven't seen each other for a long time, so you have become unfamiliar with me. It will be fine when we spend more time together."

Jiang Ye frowned irritably: "We are going to eat, go find your parents."

"Brother Jiang Ye."

"If she doesn't leave, let's go." Jiang Ye said to Xu Nuannuan.

Then, they walked towards Mei Xiangcao together. Xu Nuannuan didn't ask Jiang Ye about Zhang Xiaoyan, but Jiang Ye took the initiative to tell her: "I heard from my mother that my grandfather and her grandfather used to be good friends. The neighbors said the same thing. My grandfather died shortly after I was born. When I was four, my father disappeared. My mother raised the three of us alone. I didn't see her family help our family in any way. I really don't know her that well."

Xu Nuannuan smiled and said, "She's irrelevant, so just ignore her."

When Mei Xiangcao saw Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan coming together, they really looked like a loving couple.

He quickly greeted her with a smile, "Aye, Nuannuan, you two are here together."

"Auntie, I met Comrade Jiang Ye on the road and came here with him." Xu Nuannuan said.

"Okay, okay, wait a moment, dinner will be served soon."

"it is good."

After Jiang Ye and Xu Nuannuan walked over there together, Zhang Xiaoyan felt a little embarrassed. She was rejected by Jiang Ye again and again, and it was difficult for her to chase him, so she could only stomp her feet in anger.

She turned her head to look in the direction of her parents, and just then her mother called her, so she went to find her mother.

As soon as she walked up to Zhang's mother, she began to mutter, "Mom, you and Dad should have seen just now how close Brother Jiang Ye and that female educated youth are. Brother Jiang Ye can't have anything with that female educated youth, otherwise, how can I marry into the Jiang family?"

Mother Zhang was suspicious. She turned her head and glanced at Xu Nuannuan, curling her lips. "She's an educated youth from the city, and she's so beautiful. Jiang Ye is not only a peasant, but also a bastard. How could she be interested in Jiang Ye?"

"Who knows? Think about the female educated youth in our village before. Some of them looked down on the men in our village and would actively seduce them so that they would work for them. I think she is similar. After a while, when she can return to the city, she will dump Brother Jiang Ye. It would be bad if she deceived the Jiang family's treasure away again.

There is another possibility, she has already charmed Brother Jiang Ye, and let Brother Jiang Ye tell her about the existence of the Jiang family baby. She is willing to marry Brother Jiang Ye, and for the sake of the baby, she will always live here with Jiang Ye. "

Mother Zhang spat, "She's just a foxy woman. Don't panic for now. Let's go home and talk it over with your grandfather. We absolutely cannot let the Jiang family's treasure fall into the hands of outsiders."

"Okay, Mom."

Xu Nuannuan was chatting with the Jiang family when Li Miao found her and said, "Nuannuan, where were you just now? I didn't see you when I went to the educated youth camp to get dishes and chopsticks, so I brought them here for you."

"Thank you, Miaomiao."

Xu Nuannuan took the bowl and chopsticks, and started to get her meal a few minutes later.

The members and the educated youth did not need to separate, they all stood in the same line to get their meals. Xu Nuannuan got her meals with the Jiang family and then ate with them.

After everyone finished eating, no one went home because there was still rice left in the two big pots, and if you ate quickly you could get a bowl back.

There was no place to sit in the threshing ground, so everyone squatted on the ground. Xu Nuannuan followed the local customs and squatted on the ground with the Jiang family.

Fu Yunqi came to Mei Xiangcao with a bowl in hand and a smile on his face to chat with her. Mei Xiangcao pointed to the spot next to her and said, "Squat here."

Fu Yunqi squatted down immediately. Although he felt that the posture was a bit strange, reminding him of squatting in the toilet at home, he felt quite happy to have such a lively meal.

Jiang Ting thought Fu Yunqi squatted very well and said with a smile, "Brother Fu, you squat very naturally. Do you often eat like this in the city?"

Because Fu Yunqi had helped their family and Xu Nuannuan, they felt that Fu Yunqi was more approachable, so they used a more intimate name.

Fu Yunqi smiled and said, "In the city, we always sit when we eat and squat when we go to the toilet."

"Hahaha."

Jiang Yang and Mei Xiangcao couldn't help but laugh. Jiang Ting felt embarrassed and blushed. "I didn't know. If I had known, I wouldn't have asked."

"There's nothing funny about it. It's just objective facts." Fu Yunqi said, "Before I came here, I thought you were just like us."

"That's right, I didn't know." Jiang Ting felt less embarrassed.
