Countdown to Awakening

Qi Yuanyuan and Sun Pandi were almost done with their work when Zheng Haifeng came over wearing an apron.

"Pandi, Yuanyuan." He called with a smile.

Qi Yuanyuan looked at the two of them. Based on her experience reading novels and seeing couples, Sun Pandi and Zheng Haifeng were definitely a couple! Absolutely! Anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were attracted to each other. Wouldn't it be a shame if they weren't together?

"Yuanyuan, what are you laughing at?" Zheng Haifeng asked in confusion.

"Nothing. Aren't you too happy about not having a banquet?"

Then, Zheng Haifeng took out two beautifully wrapped candies from his pocket and handed them to the two of them.

Sun Pandi was stunned when she saw the candy.

"This is chocolate. I just checked in the kitchen. There are only a few left. Here, have some. I've already eaten one."

Sun Pandi picked up the candy.

It is said that chocolate is only available to city dwellers. Where did he get it?

"Yuanyuan, don't you want it?" he asked.

Qi Yuanyuan waved her hands and replied, "I don't want it. It's bitter and not tasty."

Zheng Haifeng asked in confusion, "Huh? How do you know? When did you eat good food without telling us?"

Qi Yuanyuan made up an excuse: "No, I heard it from others. You guys eat it, I won't eat it. Bitter things are not tasty."

She couldn't possibly say she traveled from another time and space, right? Who would believe that?

After eating a piece, Sun Pandi said, "It's quite bitter. Where did you get it?" Zheng Haifeng replied, "I heard that Teacher Qin gave it to me. I saw no one was eating it, so I took a few. What do you think? It's bitter, but it's quite delicious, right?"

Sun Pandi nodded. It was indeed delicious.

Zheng Haifeng quickly opened the chocolate and stuffed it into his mouth. He didn't forget to say to Qi Yuanyuan, "If you don't want it, I'll have an extra piece."

Qi Yuanyuan had already seen it

She had already noticed that there were only two pieces of chocolate, and Zheng Haifeng said he had already eaten them.

It wasn't that she was being modest or anything, it was just that she didn't like this kind of thing in the first place; it was too bitter. The first time she tried it, she thought it was something good. But it turned out to be so bitter... From then on, she had a kind of aversion to chocolate.

She had never seen or eaten the chocolate in Zheng Haifeng's hand, but she knew it must not taste good.

Sun Degui took Sun Jiacai to move among various men.

"Son, Dad is taking you to say hello to the other uncles now. You better be sweet-mouthed, otherwise who will help you if you have any problems in the future? Right? You have to know that Dad's current connections will be your future connections. You have to say hello to everyone you meet, okay?"

In fact, he wanted to show off his son who could become a high-ranking official in the future. If his son became a high-ranking official in the future, those people would be glad that they knew his son...

Sun Degui felt it was a pity that he was not related to Ma Hui, otherwise his son-in-law would be Ma Hui...

It’s all that money-losing thing’s fault. If it weren’t for her, how could their family not be related to Ma Hui?

Women should get married when they reach a certain age, but she refused to do so and chose to go against her family... What a money-losing jinx!

Not only did he kill her grandfather when she was young, but now his family is in debt and has lost a great connection like Ma Hui...

Everyone saw Sun Jiacai and smiled the same way. They all knew that if they didn't smile, they would probably be criticized behind their backs again.

Sun Degui thought these people looked up to them from the bottom of their hearts...

"Deguier, I didn't expect that you and your wife are still doing that..." Jiang Shuilian came over and asked in a vulgar tone.

"Shui Lian, what are you talking about? What do you mean by doing that? What is it? Why don't I understand..."

Jiang Shuilian chuckled and continued, "Don't play dumb, I saw it all. Didn't your wife go to Ma Hui's house that day? She didn't come out for a while. Do you think she went to do that thing with Ma Hui?"

Sun Degui panicked. Didn't Ma Hui agree not to tell anyone? How did Jiang Shuilian know?

"Stop talking nonsense. What did you do? How could that be possible? Didn't I owe Ma Hui money? I just called my wife over. But I really didn't do anything. You're overthinking it."

Jiang Shuilian came forward and said to him, "I know even if you don't tell me. Ma Hui told me everything."

!!! He told it all? ?

Jiang Shuilian said, "But I won't tell anyone. I know about Ma Hui... He might dare to tell anyone, but I wouldn't... It's enough for me to just know it in my heart."

To be honest, their family also owed Ma Hui money, so Jiang Shuilian's wife had been there too... but she wasn't as stupid as Sun Degui to let him be seen. Sun Degui didn't know how to choose the time or the place, so it's no wonder he was discovered...

Qin Zixin also came to the banquet. She specially found Qi Yuanyuan and Sun Pandi and gave them three red envelopes respectively.

"Teacher Qin...you..."

Qin Zixin shook her head and continued, "You guys can keep it. I earned all my money myself, and you all know my family situation, so feel free to take it. Oh, and by the way, the red envelopes for you two are also in there for Teacher Jiang and Teacher Li. We'll give Zheng Haifeng's together and give them to the village chief. But we have to give them separately to the two of you."

Qin Zixin knew that girls in the village rarely got money, and if they wanted to give it, it could only be given in private, not in front of their parents, otherwise it would no longer be theirs.

"Thank you, Teacher Qin."

Only the red envelopes from Teacher Qin and others would not get burned if they received them.

"Put it away, don't let anyone see it."

Qin Zixin admired these two girls very much. They were admitted to the same university and were not bound by the village's ideas.

“I hope you will reach a higher level in the future.”

"Thank you, Teacher Qin."

After receiving the red envelope, Teacher Qin left.

The two of them quickly put away the red envelope. Sun Pandi still gave the red envelope to Qi Yuanyuan. After all, she couldn't let Sun Degui and his wife see the money in her own home, otherwise the money would belong to her brother.

Qi Yuanyuan was naturally happy to help her collect the red envelopes.

Qi Yuanyuan felt it was unreal that she received six red envelopes at once...

Chen Juan and Sister Jin were still chatting.

"The one from the Qi family doesn't have a partner yet, right? Why don't you introduce her to someone?" Sister Jin asked while eating melon seeds.

Chen Juan showed a look of disdain. "You mean that one? Oh my god, that one? She's got a lot of mouth. Let me tell you, it's not that no one introduced her to someone. Liao Bin was originally introduced to her, but she just refused. She's so arrogant, thinking she can marry someone so well... I guess no one will want her in the future."

"Is that so? It's not good for a girl to be too talkative. No one will want her in the future...right? Girls should be more gentle, otherwise they won't be able to find a partner or get married in the future."

Chen Juan gloated, "If she can't get married, I want to see how proud Liang Xiaocui is. She'll chase her daughter away just because she got into university. So what if she has a daughter who gets into university? If no one wants her in the future, it will be the same. She'll lose face..."

Sister Jin called her son and told him that Chen Juan was his future mother-in-law.

Although Tianzhuang was not very smart, he still understood what was said. He immediately called out to Chen Juan loudly, "Hello, mother-in-law!"

Chen Juan smiled until her eyes narrowed into slits. Although the child wasn't very bright, he was quite sensible. He would be her son-in-law in the future.

Sister Jin then said, "Juan'er, you can't go back on your word. To be honest, my son not only has some mental issues, but he doesn't have many years left... I'm telling you, you can't cancel the engagement. The betrothal gift we offered is very high."

Sister Jin knew that Chen Juan didn't care about Sun Pandi. If she did, she wouldn't have found a foolish son-in-law for her daughter.
