Era: The naive beauty charmed the villain!

Xu Fengjuan called out a few more times outside the courtyard gate.

Seeing that Lin An'an was determined not to open the door for her, she was furious and blocked the doorway, cursing loudly.

Lin An'an pursed her lips as she listened to Xu Fengjuan's cursing.

Even though she's so angry, she still insists on not admitting that she's Gu Qingsong's mother. I don't know what she's doing coming here.

Lin An'an looked up at her watch. It was getting late, and she couldn't let Xu Fengjuan delay her dinner.

He simply went into the kitchen, cooking while listening to Xu Fengjuan's cursing.

Every now and then, she would reply with a sarcastic remark, which made Xu Fengjuan even angrier.

As time went on, Lin An'an actually started to find some fun in it, which served as a welcome change from her boring daily life.

After finishing cooking, he simply moved a small stool to the courtyard gate and sat down, intently trying to make Xu Fengjuan angry.

The goal is to make her faint with anger, or even better, to make her die of anger.

Lin An'an was having a great time when suddenly Xu Fengjuan's furious voice outside disappeared.

A moment later, Gu Qingsong knocked on the door and said, "An'an, it's me, open the door."

When Lin An'an heard that Gu Qingsong had returned, she quickly stood up, opened the courtyard gate, and let him in.

Xu Fengjuan followed behind, wanting to sneak in quietly, but was stopped by a look from Gu Qingsong, and ultimately did not dare to step across the threshold.

Xu Fengjuan, with a basket slung over her arm, craned her neck to look into the yard and made conversation, saying, "Your house is quite nice; it looks very comfortable."

Gu Qingsong scoffed and said sarcastically, "Didn't you live in this house before?"

Xu Fengjuan's expression changed. She stopped being polite with Gu Qingsong and directly demanded, "You young people don't know how to manage your money. You spend it all recklessly."

"Give me all your money and tickets, and I'll keep them safe for you."

Gu Qingsong didn't immediately send her away because he wanted to figure out what Xu Fengjuan's purpose was in coming today.

You see, ever since Grandpa Gu died, Xu Fengjuan was either scared or afraid of being entangled with him.

For so many years, I have always avoided seeing him. I would avoid him if I saw him from afar on the street, let alone go to his door on my own initiative.

Gu Qingsong raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and said, "You came all this way just to talk about this? After all these years, have you finally gone mad?"

Xu Fengjuan secretly gathered her strength and pretended to speak earnestly, "Qingsong, I know you resent me, but I'm doing this for your own good. You may not know, but there were also men in the next brigade who married educated youth, but when they ran out of money and coupons, they ran away."

"Don't you think about it? No girl in the countryside would even want you. What would a young woman from the city want from marrying you? You don't want to lose both your money and your love, do you?"

Gu Qingsong found this amusing and retorted, "Then what do you want from me? In what capacity are you helping me safeguard my money and tickets?"

"I, I am..." Xu Fengjuan stammered.

Seeing this, Gu Qingsong's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and he sneered, "Don't even think about it. What money do I have? Don't you know what kind of life I've been living all these years?"

Xu Fengjuan was anxious. She was only coming to Gu's house today at the risk of being discovered and gossiped about because she had no other choice.

Li Meihong is going to town to find a partner in a couple of days. She finally managed to find a young man from town through a friend.

The townspeople already looked down on rural girls, so if she dressed shabbily, she definitely wouldn't make it.

Li Meihong has been making a scene at home for several days, wanting to get new clothes made, but Xu Fengjuan simply doesn't have any money.
