Gu Qingsong understood the implication in Xu Dachuan's words that he wanted to get rid of him.

He wasn't angry at all; he was used to it.

Wherever he went, people who knew his background always treated him badly.

These new educated youths haven't been here long and may not know him yet, but the older educated youths all know him and want to distance themselves from him as soon as possible, which is normal.

However, while Gu Qingsong understood their intentions, he wouldn't completely follow their wishes.

He raised an eyebrow and said deliberately, "Then I'll trouble you to take care of my fiancée. I'll come see her again tomorrow."

"fiancée?!"

One of the female educated youth watching couldn't help but gasp. Realizing that everyone's eyes were on her, she quickly covered her mouth, indicating that she would not make any more noise.

Xu Dachuan's face was grim. He had been in the village for seven years. Although he didn't want to cause trouble, he knew that if they wanted to have a certain voice in the village, the educated youth had to unite.

If you let others bully you, you will only be bullied more and more badly. Weakness will only bring them more serious harm.

Xu Dachuan ignored Gu Qingsong and turned to Lin An'an, asking, "Lin Zhiqing, we won't listen to him. Tell us what the situation is now."

Lin An'an felt a little embarrassed when she heard Gu Qingsong say that in front of everyone.

However, Gu Qingsong did save her, and she had already agreed to marry him, so she naturally wouldn't go back on her word.

Lin An'an nodded, opened her mouth, and suddenly realized that she had forgotten to ask the man's name.

Since the man hadn't introduced himself, she still didn't know who he was, so she whispered, "Just like he said."

Gu Qingsong was on tenterhooks, worried that Lin An'an might change her mind once she was in a familiar place and felt safe.

If she really goes back on her word, even if I say it vehemently, I actually wouldn't want to ruin her reputation.

Hearing Lin An'an agree with him now, he truly breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Qingsong smiled and asked, "An'an, is there anything I can do for you? Would you like me to boil some water for you to wash up?"

Upon hearing Lin An'an's answer, Xu Dachuan felt a wave of dizziness, convinced that this bad element had tricked their good educated youth, and his face turned extremely ugly.

Hearing that Gu Qingsong still didn't want to leave, he couldn't help but say, "We have hot water ready, so you don't need to bother."

Lin An'an glanced at Xu Dachuan and noticed that his expression was quite grave.

Although the reason is unknown, the older men at this educated youth settlement are usually very calm and take good care of the new educated youth.

So even though she didn't know the reason, Lin An'an quickly said to Gu Qingsong, "You go back first, I can manage on my own."

Having just received Lin An'an's acknowledgment, Gu Qingsong was in a great mood. Hearing Lin An'an urging him to go back, he showed no sign of being upset.

He smiled and held up the pheasant in his hand, saying cheerfully, "You're injured and need nutrition, but it's not very convenient to make soup at the educated youth station. I'll go back and stew the chicken, and bring it to you for tomorrow."

Lin An'an just wanted to get rid of the man as soon as possible so she could escape being the center of attention. She didn't pay attention to what he said and just nodded haphazardly.

Gu Qingsong was even happier to see that Lin An'an had agreed. He gave her a few more instructions and then took the pheasant back home.

Look at how he's practically floating on air; he's happier than if he'd found a box of gold.
