Reborn in 1979, with a female educated youth lying next to me.

Without giving it much thought, Liu Jia replied directly, "We're just chatting here, cooling off under this big tree. Do you need something?"

Guo Xiaoyan shook her head, her attitude towards Liu Jia softened considerably, and even her voice became gentler.

“I went to the library, and I saw what looked like you at the intersection just now. I didn’t expect you to actually be here.”

"Oh, is there something you need?"

In just a few words, Liu Jia asked twice, "Is there something you need?"

Guo Xiaoyan felt a little embarrassed, but she still picked up where Liu Jia left off.

"Now that you mention it, I do remember something."

next to.

Li Zhenhe and Liu Yurou were both looking in Liu Jia and Guo Xiaoyan's direction.

Although Liu Jia's face was expressionless, Guo Xiaoyan clearly had no intention of leaving.

"Xiaoyu, don't you think it's hot here? Why don't we go over there and cool off for a while?"

Li Zhenhe pointed casually, and Liu Yurou looked in Li Zhenhe's direction. In the blink of an eye, Liu Yurou pouted.

Where is this Li Zhenhe referring to?

It's all bare in front of us, not even a shady spot, how could it possibly be cool?

There are no trees over there.

Liu Yurou pouted and looked at Li Zhenhe with a hint of reproach.

"Isn't that right? A sapling is still a sapling. If the wind blows, the sapling's leaves will move even more vigorously, and the wind will be stronger. Let's go."

Li Zhenhe looked embarrassed and didn't even know what he had said.

Right now, Li Zhenhe has only one thought in his mind.

We need to find a way to make room for Liu Jia and his wife to talk.

Although the two are divorced, it seems possible that they might remarry.

Despite Liu Jia's constant claims that he has no feelings for his ex-wife, he's just putting on an act, and Li Zhenhe can definitely tell that.

Seeing that Li Zhenhe was determined to leave, Liu Yurou had no choice but to follow him, even though she was unwilling.

then.

Only Liu Jia and Guo Xiaoyan remained under the big tree.

At this moment, Liu Jia had calmed down, and at least Yan'er would no longer chirp; Yan'er would chirp again.

“Liu Jia, last time I asked you to bring the bracelet back to Mother, it was because I didn’t think things through. The bracelet is not practical, so I can understand why you didn’t accept it.”

"But next month's second day is Mother's birthday, and I have to give her a gift. I've already thought about it a couple of days ago. I'll buy a piece of cloth and make a dress for Mother. You can take it back to her later."

"I don't know any handicrafts, so could you please make this for me, sister-in-law? It would be a small token of our appreciation. Would that be alright?"

Liu Jia frowned.

Last time, at the state-run restaurant, Guo Xiaoyan offered Liu Jia a pair of silver bracelets to take back to her mother, but Liu Jia refused outright.

As the saying goes, one should not accept a reward without merit. Why should I accept their gifts for no reason?

But now, Guo Xiaoyan mentioned her mother's birthday and said it was a small token of her affection, and Liu Jia really didn't know how to refuse.

If a silver bracelet is valuable, then if you buy a piece of fabric to make a garment and then refuse to accept it, wouldn't that seem a bit inappropriate?

Liu Jia was still hesitating.

Guo Xiaoyan asked again, "Is it going to work or not? Liu Jia, don't overthink it. Me making clothes for my mother is a matter between my mother and me. Don't bring it up as repaying a favor."

Liu Jia knew Guo Xiaoyan was smart, but after Guo Xiaoyan voiced his thoughts, Liu Jia instinctively felt a little embarrassed.

"Your mother has clothes, so don't worry about it."

"The clothes I have are from before. I'm making a dress for my mother as a birthday present. Are these two things contradictory?"

For a moment, Liu Jia was at a loss for words.

"Fine, go ahead and lay them off if you want!"

After saying that, Liu Jia raised his eyelids.

When Liu Jia looked at Guo Xiaoyan again, he suddenly paused.

Compared to the last time we met, Guo Xiaoyan's face was noticeably rosier, and she looked much more energetic.

I really don't know if it was the other medicine she took or the red-skinned peanuts her mother prepared that worked.

Liu Jia glanced at it briefly before looking away.

I dared not linger my gaze on Guo Xiaoyan's face for too long.

“Then let’s set a time. When will you go to the supply and marketing cooperative again? I can finish cutting the clothes in the next couple of days,” Guo Xiaoyan asked again.

Liu Jiasi paused for a moment.

"Mom's birthday is still a while away. How about I come back to pick it up a week later? I have some things to do these next few days and I might not be able to get away."

Guo Xiaoyan was about to ask what could be the matter when she suddenly froze before she could even speak.

"What's wrong? Are you in a rush?"

Guo Xiaoyan didn't speak, but her eyebrows furrowed and her eyes stared straight into the distance.

Liu Jia found it strange and looked up in the direction Guo Xiaoyan was looking.

My God!

How can this kind of thing still exist?

At this moment, Brother Dao was standing in front of Liu Yurou with about a dozen of his underlings.

Liu Yurou looked serious, and her demeanor was different from before!

"Looking for you?"

Guo Xiaoyan's voice wasn't loud, but her tone already revealed a hint of dissatisfaction.

Guo Xiaoyan had the utmost contempt for these local thugs and hooligans.

At such a young age, with hands and feet, what can't you do? What can't you do to make money?

Why do people have to form gangs of thugs?

You know, these days, scoundrels are really annoying.

Liu Jia shook his head, quickly distancing himself from the situation.

These people can't come looking for me.

If they really recognize that it was he who saved Li Dongfang, wouldn't he also be hunted down by them?

"Don't talk nonsense. I don't know these people. They're definitely not here to see me."

After listening, Guo Xiaoyan sighed heavily.

"You scared me. I thought these people came specifically to find you."

"How could that be? I'm not familiar with these people, and they have no reason to look for me!"

After he finished speaking, Liu Jia's heart jumped again.

What I just said was a bit far-fetched.

You should know that the group of people not far away are all thugs and hooligans.

If they sincerely seek me out, it has nothing to do with whether I know them or not.

"That's good. Liu Jia, you're an adult now. You need to be more rational in everything you do and not be so impulsive all the time."

"We live in a society governed by law now. If you break the law, you will definitely be punished. It's best to abide by the law."

"Also, don't take young girls around the city all day long; it's no fun at all."

Guo Xiaoyan talked on and on, while Liu Jia couldn't say a word.

If this had happened in Xili Village, there would definitely have been a lot of gossip.

Whose couple is getting divorced and still talking so much?

As Liu Jia was thinking, Guo Xiaoyan frowned once again.

"You still say you don't know these people? Look!"

Guo Xiaoyan stretched out her hand and pointed directly at the group of people not far away.

Liu Jia's eyes widened in astonishment!

not far away.

Brother Dao and about ten men stood in front of Liu Yurou.

Before Liu Jia could even come up with a reason, those people actually knelt down in front of Li Zhen!

Liu Jia was deeply moved by such a respectful bow.

"To be honest, I don't understand what this is all about, and it has nothing to do with me anyway."

"Those people have nothing to do with you, but Li Zhenhe is, isn't he? When will you ever give people a break?"

After grumbling for a moment, Guo Xiaoyan continued, "Fine, I've said what I needed to say. Whether you listen or not is up to you. Don't forget, we'll meet here in the morning a week from now!"

"Okay, I remember it."

Liu Jia was very polite when speaking to Guo Xiaoyan.

Liu Jia only looked away after Guo Xiaoyan left.

At that moment, not far away, Li Zhenhe and Liu Yurou were jogging towards them.

"Sanzi, what did your wife say to you? Is she saying she wants to remarry? If so, do you still have to throw a banquet?"

As soon as Li Zhenhe finished speaking, Liu Jia was about to retort, but at that moment, Liu Yurou started to speak again.

"Your wife glared at me when she left. Was she jealous? Third Brother, if you want to remarry, you'd better explain this matter clearly. I don't want to be blamed."

When the topic of taking the blame came up, Liu Jia immediately perked up again.

If Liu Jia hadn't just seen someone kowtowing to Li Zhenhe, he would never have believed that Liu Yurou, a little girl, could have subdued that group of burly men.

What about kowtowing?

Liu Jia wanted to see Brother Dao, but found that Brother Dao was not in the crowd.

"What...what happened just now?"

Before Li Zhenhe could speak, Liu Yurou said directly, "Didn't these people offend my brother Li? They need to apologize to him. Kowtowing is too lenient. If it weren't for my brother Li pleading on their behalf, I would never have let them off."

As she spoke, Liu Yurou's face regained its domineering expression.

Liu Jia was speechless.

Just then, a strange sound came from not far away.

It sounded like the bicycle chain was rubbing against something, making a hissing or rattling noise.

Liu Jia turned around.

That guy, Dao, actually rode this old-fashioned bicycle over here!

On the back seat of the old-fashioned bicycle, there was a box selling popsicles.

"Wow, Xiaoyu, your dad's people really do everything! They even sell popsicles?"

Liu Jia raised an eyebrow, then swallowed hard.

Liu Jia couldn't see the popsicle box and didn't feel thirsty, but when he saw the box, his throat suddenly felt dry and itchy.

"What, do you want an ice pop?"

"Of course I want some! On such a hot day, who wouldn't want something cold? Don't you want some?"

Liu Yurou smiled smugly.

"Eat as much as you want, it's been delivered to you, Third Brother, there's all the popsicles you can eat today!"

After saying that, Liu Yurou thought of something else.

"Oh, right, there's also soda. Third Brother, would you like some soda?"

Liu Jia burst out laughing.

"Is there really such a good thing? We're really lucky today!"

Just as he finished speaking, Brother Dao's bicycle suddenly stopped in front of Liu Jia.

"Brother Liu, Brother Li, I was wrong before. I apologize to you both. Please accept this small token of my appreciation."

Looking at the box full of popsicles and soda, Liu Jia was stunned!
