Chapter 34 Chen Shuning Refuses to Borrow Books

Xu Qingshan ultimately did not agree to help Xing Fangcao borrow high school textbooks.

He thought Xing Fangcao was a very strange person! Ever since she had a high fever last month, she seemed like a different person!

In the past, he took advantage of others, but now he pretends to be generous! He is so poor that he can't even afford to eat, but he still tries to help others.

But every time after helping others, he would show a painful expression, which made him feel uncomfortable!

I used to be timid and petty. Now I'm very outgoing and friendly to everyone I see. But this friendliness is too much, and it makes people feel hypocritical.

The strangest thing is, how did Xing Fangcao know that the college entrance examination might be resumed?

Xu Qingshan was thinking about this question and fell into a drowsy sleep!

There were only so many peppers grown, and the whole village worked overtime for half a month to pick them, but there were not many left!

When there was only a little bit of chili left, Chen Honglu took the strong laborers to the fields to clean the ditches.

Only the elderly, the weak, women and children are left in the warehouse. After picking the last few peppers, they can be handed over to the purchasing station.

There wasn't much work to do, so Chen Shuning didn't come over and stayed at home to make cotton pants for Wang Simin.

Xing Fangcao looked several times but didn't see Chen Shuning. She bit her lip and moved a stool to Chen Shuyi's side.

"Sister Shuyi, why didn't Chen Shuning come to work today?"

Chen Shuyi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xing Fangcao suspiciously, thinking: When did I become so familiar with her, calling her "sister" right away...

But since one shouldn't hit someone who smiles at them, Chen Shuyi still said with a smile, "I'm not sure! Maybe Shuning has something else to do?"

They are indeed sisters, but their families live some distance away from each other, so it is impossible for them to know each other's situation well.

Xing Fangcao said in a daze: "Oh~ so that's it!"

"Do you have something to do with Shuning? If it's urgent, go directly to her house." Chen Shuyi kindly reminded.

Xing Fangcao said awkwardly, "No! Nothing, I just thought it was strange that she didn't come today."

Xing Fangcao didn't want anyone to know about the high school textbooks she borrowed. She already had a hard time studying, and if word got out, everyone would rush off to review, leaving her with nothing to worry about.

"Chen Shuning? Chen Shuning, are you home?"

Chen Shuning had just finished quilting the cotton and hadn't even started sewing when she heard someone calling her from outside. Not wanting anyone to see her making cotton pants, she quickly pushed the door open and walked out.

"Hey! I'm here~ It's Xing Zhiqing! What do you want to talk to me about?"

Chen Shuning didn't usually hang out with the educated youth group, so she wasn't familiar with Xing Fangcao. She was quite surprised when Xing Fangcao came to see her.

"You're home! That's great! I came here to ask if you still have your high school textbooks. If not, could you lend them to me?"

Chen Shuning frowned and asked, "Borrow? Xing Zhiqing, how long do you plan to borrow it for? I need it myself."

Xing Fangcao's expression darkened, but she felt it was too hard to give up like this! After some thought, she said, "It takes me a long time, how about we use the same set?"

Chen Shuning immediately became unhappy and refused directly: "No way! I need it myself. You should ask someone else!"

The book belongs to Chen Shuning, and she can read it anytime. If Xing Fangcao says so, and they both use it, since they don't live together and have different working hours, it would be too inconvenient!

Xing Fangcao was very depressed. She lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes and asked, "Then can you help me ask your classmates if they have any unused items that they can lend me?"

Chen Shuning frowned and said, "Our elders don't allow us to borrow things for others."

Chen Shuning borrowed books for Xing Fangcao, and Xing Fangcao would need them for a long time. If there was a conflict, Chen Shuning would be in a difficult position!

They were not familiar with each other, and Chen Shuning really didn't want to help her borrow books.

"I'll buy it! As long as someone's willing to sell it, I'm willing to pay for it! But... I don't have much money on me, so it'd be best if it's cheap..."

Xing Fangcao found it difficult to finish these words, and her voice became smaller and smaller.

Chen Shuning said perfunctorily, "If I run into a classmate, I can help you ask. However, I can't guarantee that I can find it for you!"

Hope rekindled in Xing Fangcao's eyes, and she said excitedly, "Well! As long as you can help me ask, I will be very grateful to you! Thank you~ Thank you~"

Xing Fangcao still had work to do, so she didn't stay long. She explained her purpose and left.

Chen Shuning thought Xing Fangcao was quite strange, and told Chen Jiawang about it at noon.

It was Xu Qingshan who told Chen Jiawang the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination! After spending some time together, Chen Jiawang probably had some understanding of Xu Qingshan's background.

When Xing Fangcao heard this, she thought that there were hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Chenjia Village, and that another child of a high-ranking official had come!

As a result, I met Xu Qingshan in the afternoon and found out after asking him that it was not the case at all!

"I didn't tell Xing Fangcao! And no one at the educated youth camp knew about this!"

"I know because my family has access to this level. Xing Fangcao... Xing Fangcao's family is just an ordinary working-class family in a small county town."

"She had already been borrowing books before I received the letter from home. I was curious how she knew!"

Chen Jiawang couldn't figure it out, but his intuition told him that there was something strange about this matter!

Xu Qingshan couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up thinking about it: "Don't worry about her! Just stay away from her if you see her! She's a bit weird~"

Chen Shuning worked tirelessly, and finally finished the cotton pants by the evening! Seeing that it was getting colder, she wanted to send the clothes over as soon as possible so that Grandpa Wang would suffer less.

While everyone was in the cafeteria, Chen Shuning quietly went to the cowshed and found that Wang Simin was not there, so he stuffed his cotton pants into his quilt.

When I came back, I happened to meet Wang Erxiu going to the cafeteria to eat. The two looked at each other, Wang Erxiu rolled his eyes and left.

Go further and you will reach Chen Honglu's house.

"Erping, why are you here suddenly?"

"Hey~ Didn't Jiang Lichun's daughter get a boyfriend? I came over to ask around and see you while I was there!"

Chen Shuning passed by her house and overheard what she heard. She didn't take it seriously, rubbed her stomach, and hurried to the cafeteria!

Although the food in the cafeteria is not tasty and can't fill my stomach, it's better than being hungry like this!

"Erping, come here! Drink this bowl of brown sugar water! It will warm you up!"

Yang Daping made a bowl of brown sugar water and brought it to Yang Erping. Brown sugar was precious, and only his own sister was here. If it was someone else, Yang Daping would be reluctant to give it out!

"Sister! You are really my sister! You are so generous!" Yang Erping praised his sister and then picked up the bowl.

Yang Daping asked curiously, "When did you tell Jiang Lichun's daughter about a marriage? Why didn't I hear anything about it?"

Yang Erping sipped the water, felt it was too hot, and put the bowl down again. He said, "Lao Lin and his wife kept a low profile and didn't tell anyone!"

"Which village are you talking about? Whose family is it?" Yang Daping asked.

"Hey~ Whose family are you returning it to? It doesn't work no matter who you are, nothing has been agreed upon! Lin Juan has high standards and she won't be happy!" Yang Erping got angry when this matter was mentioned!

Yang Erping's words made Yang Daping even more curious! Which company was it?

Before Yang Daping could ask, a voice came from behind the house:

"Dad! Hurry up! Mom has already gone to the cafeteria. Why are you still dawdling at home? You won't be able to eat if you're late!"

"What are you afraid of? If Zhao Fengping doesn't make me food, I'll imitate Chen Shuning and make a scene too! Let's see what she'll do."

Yang Erping's eyes lit up, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Sister, who is talking?"

"Hi! My brother-in-law, Chen Hongjiang!"

"No! I'm asking about this girl!" Yang Erping thought to himself: Why would I ask about an old man?

Yang Daping said with a smile: "Chen Xue! Hong Jiang's daughter. She is eighteen years old this year!"

Yang Erping was delighted when he heard this: "Do you have a partner? If not, I'll find one for her! Hey! The conditions are great!"

Yang Daping frowned and said, "Who is it? You're not going to tell Chen Xue about the guy that Lin Juan doesn't like, are you? That won't do!"

Our niece is very pretty and she won't pick up things that others don't want! "

Yang Erping slammed the table and said in a low voice, "Just listen to me and finish what I have to say! Didn't I tell you that Lin Juan has high standards, that's why it didn't work out!"

Just because she has high standards doesn't mean the guy is of poor quality! If you ask me, Lin Juan is just arrogant. What does she have? How dare she be so picky!

Yang Daping knew he was getting anxious, so he gave an awkward laugh and urged, "Then tell me! What are the conditions?"

Yang Erping deliberately kept the question a secret, took a sip of brown sugar water, and then said, "What are the conditions? Three turns and one ring~"
