Qiu Lian waved her hand. "Isn't that Fang a very powerful person? We helped him this time. Why don't you ask him for a favor and find Nanfeng a decent job in the city?"

Shen Chengyuan glanced at her impatiently, "Do you have a pig brain? We just helped them with such a small favor, and you go and ask them for help. What will they think of us?"

Qiu Lian didn't think too much about it. She just felt sorry for her son learning all those messy things every night which were useless.

After all, life in the village is comfortable and you won’t starve to death, but if you really want to make a name for yourself, you have to go to the city!

Have a stable job!

In the future, when people in the village ask about her son, he will be really proud of himself.

"If we just send them away like this, will they still remember us? I think Comrade Shen seems easy to talk to, so I'll go talk to her!"

Qiu Lian looked at Shen Xiu's temperament, which was not something that ordinary people could have.

Besides, anyone who can marry the leader must have a good family background.

"Stupid thing! Stop causing trouble for me!"

Shen Chengyuan's face darkened. He had been drinking, and if it weren't for his remaining rationality that controlled himself, he would have almost raised his hand to slap Qiu Lian.

If he gets hurt and someone finds out tomorrow, he will lose face.

This doesn't work.

Qiu Lian was frightened by him and didn't dare to act rashly. She compromised obediently, "You... don't be angry, isn't it okay if I don't go? I'll go get you some water to wash your feet."

As she spoke, she was afraid that Shen Chengyuan's slap would fall on her face in the next second, so she turned around and ran away.

Another room.

Lin Mengyao sat on the couch, thinking about how to establish a relationship with the Fang family.

I just saw Meng Zhiwei caring so much about the disabled person in the wheelchair, and I don’t know what their relationship is.

The disabled guy looks good, but his face is cold and he looks unapproachable. People like him may look cold on the outside, but most of them are inferior in their hearts.

After all, as a disabled person, I am afraid that others will look down on me.

If Shen Nanfeng's influence in the college entrance examination really becomes unreliable in the future, she will have to find another backer.

I can't be trapped in this shabby village forever.

"As soon as I finish studying, I just lie there. Hurry up and call your mother to bring me some water to wash my feet!"

Lin Mengyao got angry when she looked at Shen Nanfeng.

Shen Nanfeng lay there motionless. "It's fine if you order me around on a daily basis, but you also want my mother to serve you like this? Lin Mengyao, am I being too kind to you?"

Lin Mengyao's face darkened. She stood up, clutching her stomach, and said in a very strong voice, "Shen Nanfeng, what did you just say? Say it again, you have the guts?"

Shen Nanfeng tugged at his hair in annoyance. "I'm telling you, I'm not going to serve you anymore! Do whatever you want!"

He had already lost some money playing cards with his teammates today and was very upset. In the evening, Yin Xinyi also gave him a lecture. Now he could no longer bear it.

After saying that, he got up and left, too lazy to bother with Lin Mengyao anymore.

The two of them had already slept in separate rooms, but when Yin Xinyi came over, she would study in Lin Mengyao's room.

"Shen Nanfeng! Stop right there!"

Lin Mengyao was used to being arrogant. Ever since she was pregnant, Shen Chengyuan had found a midwife who could deliver the baby from somewhere.

After looking at her fetus, he said with certainty that it was a son.

From then on, she could walk around the entire Shen family with impunity.

As time went by, Lin Mengyao began to look down on Shen Nanfeng more and more. On weekdays, Qiu Lian would swallow her anger in front of her.

Her belly was big and it was inconvenient for her to do anything, so Shen Chengyuan specifically asked Qiu Lian to wash her feet.

Qiu Lian was afraid of being beaten, so she had no choice but to work hard and endure all the hardships.

Shen Nanfeng didn't even turn his head, and Lin Mengyao was so angry that she threw all the pillows on the bed to the ground.

Just wait, when she becomes rich in the future, she will definitely kick Shen Nanfeng out!

This damn man!

It's useless! And you dare to give her a cold shoulder!

-

Even though the Shen family's house was the best in the entire village, Ruan Qing was still a little uncomfortable sleeping on this kind of couch.

Lying in bed at night, Shen Xiu considerately tucked the quilt for her and suddenly asked, "Qing'er, I've always wanted to ask you, after He Yang and Xiao Qiu got married, why did you suddenly come to your senses? You stopped clinging to He Yang and got along so well with Xiao Qiu?"

Ruan Qing almost bit her tongue. Why did they ask her this?

She racked her brains to come up with a reason, an impeccable reason.

"Because Xiaoqiu is nice, she's worth making friends with."

Shen Xiu couldn't find fault with this, "So you really don't like He Yang?"

"Auntie! This is even more real than real gold!" Ruan Qing could only swear an oath.

Shen Xiu was amused by her, "Then have you ever thought about finding a partner seriously? Getting married sooner?"

"Look, Xuexi was so stubborn before. Now she's about to get married. You're still a few years older than her, so it's time for you to think about your own major life events."

As an elder, Shen Xiu is also worried about her children's marriage.

Not only Ruan Qing, she is also worried about Huang Bin's marriage.

But there's no point in just worrying about it. If he refuses to get married, she and Old Man Zhou can't just kidnap him and take him home to get married, right?

Hearing that it was about urging marriage, Ruan Qing felt cold sweat on his forehead, "Auntie, there is a reason why I moved out of the Ruan family. Do you know what it is?"

"what?"

"They keep pushing me to get married and even introduce me to some really weird people on their own initiative, so I'd rather not get married for the rest of my life than force myself to do that."

Ruan Qing's goal is clear, especially after learning all the truth.

She no longer has to worry about so-called tasks. It is enough for her to live happily every day.

"Just like you, didn't you marry Uncle Meng for love? You've finally found your happiness, but maybe my happiness hasn't arrived yet!"

Shen Xiu thought about it and saw no reason to convince her anymore. "You're right, but if you really meet the right person, don't hesitate, be brave..."

"Aunt Shen, there's something else behind your words. Can't you just say it directly in front of me?" Ruan Qing was no fool and he immediately sensed something was wrong.

Are you going through all this trouble to introduce her to someone?

Shen Xiu coughed twice, "Um... I told you not to be angry, just... what kind of person do you think Xiaobin is?"

Ruan Qing's eyes widened when she heard this, but seeing Shen Xiu's serious expression, she had no choice but to say, "He is my patient. Apart from that, he and I can be considered friends. As for the rest, I don't have any other thoughts."

Hearing this, Shen Xiu couldn't help but frown. It seemed that Xiaobin was just having a one-sided...unrequited love for her.

But Ruan Qing is indeed a good girl.

They are children he knows well and has watched grow up. To be honest, if the two of them can really be together, Grandpa Zhou will feel at ease.

"Then tell your aunt what kind of gay man you like?" Shen Xiu still refused to give up.

Ruan Qing thought about this question for a while before answering, "I like guys who are handsome, humorous, don't smoke, don't pick up girls, have a strong sense of boundaries, and most importantly, he must be nice to me and me only."

She said a lot, and Shen Xiu understood some of it but not others.

A sense of boundary?

what is that?

Does it mean the same as the 38th parallel?

Shen Xiu pursed her lips, thinking about these standards, Huang Bin still had to work harder.

There is no doubt that he is handsome.

But is this humorous?

It’s too far away…

"If there really is such a person, and he expresses his feelings to you, would you agree?" "If you ask me that, I can't answer that."

Ruan Qing added, "Love is about feeling and chemistry. It's not like I'll like everyone who meets all the conditions I've given. That would be too hasty."

Marriage is not just a matter between two people, it involves three families.

Sometimes this person may be very outstanding and meet all her requirements, but if he is difficult to get along with in the family, Ruan Qing feels that she will still pass him up immediately.

Shen Xiu was silent for a moment, and finally gave up at this moment, "It's getting late, let's go to bed."

-

Early the next morning, the car was repaired and parked in front of the Shen family's door.

Shen Nanfeng was scolded last night after Lin Mengyao complained to the old man, and he obediently went to pour the foot washing water that night.

Because of this incident, for the first time, he had murderous thoughts towards his father.

Qiu Lian got up at five in the morning to make breakfast.

Not only were there meat buns, but there were also corn tortillas, sweet potato porridge, and a plate of pickled vegetables. It was a very sumptuous meal.

The neighbor next door almost drooled at the smell.

Meng Zhiwei always gets up early. He has the habit of doing boxing in the morning and is now exercising in the yard.

Lin Mengyao, who always loved to sleep in, got up early for the first time. Seeing the figure in the yard, she immediately came over and said, "Uncle Meng, you got up so early. Did you get enough rest last night?"

She didn't bother to be polite and went up to him and called him uncle. Meng Zhiwei looked back and said, "It's fine, but I'm sorry to bother you."

Even though they were all in the room with the door closed last night, they still heard Shen Chengyuan scolding his son.

So when Meng Zhiwei saw the pregnant woman in front of him, he was a little confused. After all, as a daughter-in-law, even if she was pregnant, she should not ask her mother-in-law to wash her feet.

The most important thing is that she also asked her husband to ask her mother-in-law to bring her foot washing water.

Just because of this, Meng Zhiwei had a bad impression of Lin Mengyao.

But this is someone else's family affair after all. Meng Zhiwei doesn't understand, but he is too lazy to care.

Lin Mengyao smiled and shook her head, then went back to the room, poured a cup of hot tea, and handed it to Meng Zhiwei, "Uncle Meng, was the comrade who shared a room with you last night injured?"

Meng Zhiwei took the teacup and nodded calmly, "Well, he almost sacrificed his life to save others, but he managed to save his life."

Hearing this, Lin Mengyao immediately grasped some information.

The disabled man in the wheelchair is a disabled soldier.

I don’t know what his rank was before, but someone like him who has made contributions should be living a good life.

"So he's a hero." Lin Mengyao poured out nice words without asking, and deliberately asked, "Last night, my mother-in-law mistakenly thought that he and that girl were a couple. He wasn't angry, was he?"

Meng Zhiwei waved his hand and said, "There's nothing to be angry about. He's not that petty."

As he said this, he couldn't help but mutter, "That kid really wishes it was!"

"what?"

Lin Mengyao didn't hear the next sentence clearly.

But Meng Zhiwei didn't repeat it. "It's okay. It's getting late. I'll go wake them up."

Lin Mengyao felt a little annoyed, but she still put on a smile, "Okay, breakfast is ready, you can get up and eat."

There were exactly eight people sitting around the table for breakfast.

A square table, two on each side.

Shen Nanfeng did not come out to meet the guests last night, but now he also met the guests honestly under the authority of his father.

Ruan Qing thought about what Shen Xiu said last night and suspected that Huang Bin might have some inappropriate thoughts about her.
