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

"Kneel down!"

"It really is Zhou Caijuan."

Liu Jia casually uttered two sentences.

in a blink.

Zhao Xiaochao, sitting opposite him, was dumbfounded.

Despite just now he had vowed that he would not marry anyone but Zhou Caijuan.

However, when Liu Jia actually said it, Zhao Xiaochao was still completely bewildered.

Liu Jia has found himself a wife, and it really is Zhou Caijuan!

After telling himself this several times, Zhao Xiaochao finally dared to look Liu Jia in the eye.

"Really?"

"It's true!"

Zhao Xiaochao's eyes darted around, and then he asked again.

"Third Brother, does Zhou Caijuan know about this? Do you know what she's thinking?"

Hearing Zhao Xiaochao ask that question, Liu Jia felt like kicking him in the butt.

"When I introduce you to someone, you should just tell me what you really think. Why are you asking the woman what she thinks first? What do you mean by that?"

"So if the woman doesn't like you, you won't let her go?"

"Who was bragging to me just now, saying they only liked one person? Turns out, your liking is based on the fact that other people like you?"

Liu Jia was furious.

Seeing Zhao Xiao's dawdling and indecisive manner, he felt even more annoyed.

After rattling off a whole bunch of things, Liu Jia even rolled his eyes at Zhao Xiaochao.

Luckily, this happened inside a factory.

If we were outside, I would do more than just roll my eyes!

"No, well, Third Brother, listen to me? I was just too excited, so I asked a lot of questions."

"As a man, spitting is an insult to me. I believe you keep your word!"

"I'm worried that Juanzi might not be prepared for this. If we just agree to this, what if it doesn't work out and Juanzi refuses to see me anymore?"

Zhao Xiaochao finished speaking haltingly and incoherently.

Finally, his face still showed a bewildered expression.

Liu Jia suddenly laughed.

"So, at least you have some conscience. Tell me how determined you are before I decide whether to go to the Zhou family to propose marriage."

Liu Jia's words felt like a thunderbolt had struck Zhao Xiaochao!

Propose marriage?

God!

What kind of joke is Liu Jia making?

I don't have any savings right now, and to put it bluntly, I don't even have extra underwear.

Even if Zhou Caijuan agrees to the marriage proposal, I will not agree!

Isn't this embarrassing for them?

A perfectly fine young woman is sitting there with nothing of her own, and he's already getting engaged? What a load of rubbish!

suddenly.

Zhao Xiaochao felt an overwhelming sense of loss.

"I was such a jerk before, I was just wasting my time and didn't know how to make money honestly."

“We have nothing now. Even if Zhou Caijuan is willing to marry me, she won’t be happy with me.”

"Third brother, let's not propose marriage anymore. I am not good enough for Zhou Caijuan. Juanzi will only suffer if she stays with me."

"I'm such a fucking bastard!"

Zhao Xiaochao's voice was full of frustration. After saying this, he turned and left.

Liu Jia never expected things to turn out this way.

Originally, he thought that as long as Zhao Xiaochao made up his mind, he would go to the Zhou family to talk things over, no matter what.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaochao had this attitude.

But then again.

This is not Zhao Xiaochao's fault.

Because what he said is true.

Nowadays, whether you marry a girl from the countryside or a girl from the city, who doesn't ask for a bride price or a dowry?

Even if a girl is determined to spend her life with you, you still have to make her parents feel good.

It can't be that when everyone else's daughters get married, other people's daughters have a grand wedding while your own daughter leaves all alone, can it?

Even if the girl is willing, it's still hard for the parents to accept.

Liu Jia frowned and decided to repeat Zhao Xiaochao's words to Zhou Caixia verbatim.

I have nothing to do this afternoon.

Liu Xinguo drove his tractor around Xili Village twice and then drove back safely.

then.

Zhao Xiaochao and his team then began loading goods in the back.

Since he didn't need to hire his own henchmen, Liu Jia simply locked himself in his room.

I thought of the victory celebration banquet that Liu Dongpo hosted for me.

Liu Jia felt a mix of emotions.

The banquet was very grand, with more than ten tables.

At the banquet, Lao Liu formally declared himself to be Master Liu.

He also said that from now on, when his men see him, it will be like seeing him in person.

Liu Jia could never understand why Liu Dongpo would treat him this way.

Could it be because of Liu Yurou?

After all, Liu Dongpo only had one daughter, Liu Yu.

If Liu Yurou had feelings for him, Liu Dongpo, out of affection for her, would likely treat her well as well as he did.

That was Liu Jia's initial thought.

But after returning, Liu Jia rejected his previous idea.

Although Lao Liu loves his daughter, he is not a brainless person.

To be able to build such a large business while remaining completely discreet in front of everyone requires extraordinary shrewdness.

How could such a shrewd person be so simple?

As the saying goes, no reward without merit.

Liu Jia felt uneasy about receiving such treatment from Liu Dongpo despite not having done anything himself.

Looking back, Yang Yiyi's attempts to sow discord are worth considering.

Liu Jia increasingly felt that things were not simple.

The tractor's back bed was full of goods. Liu Jia checked it again to make sure it was safe before going to find Zhou Caixia, only to find that Zhou Caixia had already left work.

Liu Jia had no choice but to go to Zhou Fengshou's house again to explain things clearly.

Early the next morning.

Liu Jia went to the Hongxing Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

But as soon as Liu Jia arrived at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, he saw a familiar figure.

Guo Jianjun?

Since it was still early, Liu Jia parked the tractor and jumped off.

"Guo Jianjun?"

Liu Jia hadn't had much contact with this former brother-in-law before.

The impressions in my mind are still from my previous life.

Steady, reliable, and loyal.

He doesn't talk much normally.

However, thinking about Guo Jianjun's recent urging on him...

Liu Jia felt that Guo Jianjun was quiet in his previous life, probably because he was at home.

After all, it seems to Liu Jia that Guo Jianjun is quite enthusiastic.

"Liu Jia, I've been waiting for you for ages, why are you only arriving now?"

"Didn't you say you'd come see me when you had time? What have you been busy with lately?"

"Have you forgotten about this?"

Before he could even stand up straight, Guo Jianjun had already asked a whole bunch of questions.

Liu Jia smiled apologetically.

"I'm so sorry, I really can't get away these past two days. My family is hosting a dinner party, and I can't leave them alone."

"A treat? Is there something you need?"

Hearing Liu Jia say this, Guo Jianjun's heart skipped a beat.

This year.

Aside from funerals, it's only happy occasions that require hosting a banquet.

Judging from Liu Jia's cheerful appearance, it doesn't seem like something bad has happened at home.

Could it be that?

In an instant, Guo Jianjun's heart was in his throat.

Originally, Liu Jia had no intention of telling Guo Jianjun about getting into university.

But that's how far the conversation has gone.

"I got into university, and the villagers wanted to celebrate, so they set up a few tables."

"You got into university? Liu Jia, you got into university!"

Guo Jianjun's eyes were filled with disbelief.

I look at Liu Jia as if he were a stranger.

The two stood face to face, and in a short time, Guo Jianjun looked the Liu family up and down.

Liu Jia was completely bewildered and looked extremely uncomfortable.

"Yes what's the matter?"

"No, Yan'er told me you didn't get into university. What happened?"

Think back to the day I met Guo Xiaoyan, and then look at Guo Jianjun now.

Liu Jia immediately understood where the problem lay.

At the time, most people received their university admission notices, but their registered mail was delayed by a day.

Therefore, not only the villagers, but even he himself accepted the fact that he had not been admitted to university.

That was exactly the state I was in when I met Guo Xiaoyan.

Liu Jia remembered that Guo Xiaoyan had scolded him with great disappointment back then.

He never saw Guo Xiaoyan afterward, nor did he explain anything to her, so Guo Xiaoyan naturally didn't know that he had been admitted to university.

and so.

Now, people all over the country feel that they didn't get into university.

Therefore, it's understandable that Guo Jianjun would be so surprised when he heard that the college entrance exam would involve a treat.

Liu Jia gave a brief explanation.

Guo Jianjun breathed a long sigh of relief.

"That's wonderful, that's really wonderful! Liu Jia, I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

Liu Jia had heard similar words countless times, but hearing them from Guo Jianjun's mouth carried a different meaning.

Liu Jia found it somewhat unbelievable.

If I didn't see it wrong, then I saw it correctly?

"Thank you."

Since they had never fought before, Liu Jia remained polite when speaking to Guo Jianjun.

But Guo Jianjun didn't think so.

"Don't be shy. My father once said that you have helped our family. Even if you and Yan'er are divorced, the elders of both sides can't be in-laws, but the children can still be friends."

After saying that, Guo Jianjun explained, "I can't control what others think, but my thoughts have never changed. At least we can be buddies."

Guo Jianjun had already deeply felt Liu Jia's generosity.

Later, after seeing their attitude towards Guo Xiaoyan after the divorce, Guo Jianjun trusted his intuition even more.

Liu Jia was taken aback.

"Okay, let's put aside all other relationships and just talk about the two of us. Are we friends now?"

“What friend? We’re buddies! Don’t keep calling me Guo Jianjun, it sounds too formal. Just call me Jianjun, or Junzi.”

Seeing that Guo Jianjun didn't treat him like an outsider, Liu Jia simply told him to call him Sanzi as well.

When addressing Guo Jianjun, Liu Jia also changed his address to "Brother Jun".

After a few words, the two of them naturally put down their airs. When they learned that Liu Jia had also applied to the University of Light Industry, Guo Jianjun was once again surprised and opened his mouth wide.

"You... you applied to the University of Light Industry?"

"Yeah, what's up? Do you know any of them?"

"No, we're even closer than classmates. She's my younger sister, and she'll be going to the University of Light Industry in a while."

As Guo Jianjun spoke, he observed the expression on Liu Jia's face.

"Who is it? Guo Xiaolan? Congratulations."

"What Guo Xiaolan? She's my second sister, Yan'er! Did you two plan to go to the same university?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jia was surprised.

It's quite a coincidence that Guo Xiaoyan was also admitted to the University of Light Industry!

He thought that after divorcing Guo Xiaoyan, the two of them would never cross paths again.

Unexpectedly, I ended up studying at Tongji University.

This left Liu Jia somewhat incredulous.

Guo Jianjun instinctively believed that the current outcome was something Guo Xiaoyan and Liu Jia had agreed upon.

"No way? This... no one would believe it if I told them."

"It's just such a coincidence. If it wasn't something you two planned beforehand, then it can only be said to be God's arrangement."

Liu Jia raised the corners of his mouth, almost revealing a bitter smile.

If this is truly God's arrangement, then God is worrying far too much.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. I'll take you to the casserole factory now. Let's hurry, we still have several factories to visit."

Guo Jianjun's words instantly perked Liu Jia up.

If Liu Jia met with the leaders of three or four factories today, he believed that with his eloquence, he could at least close half of them, if not all of them.

During this period, the business of two factories was enough to keep them laughing until the end of the year.

As long as there's business in the basket industry, the Red Star Supply and Marketing Cooperative will provide interest-free loans.

The remaining business is pure profit.

It feels beautiful just thinking about it.
