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

The matter of Cui Xiaojiu has finally come to an end.

Liu Jia's anxiety finally subsided.

To be honest, this whole thing was a complete accident.

In the end, it was just a coincidence.

And yet, it just so happens to be such a perfect match!

"Time flies so fast. You'll be leaving tomorrow. We're really counting down the days now."

Liu Jianye's words were filled with reluctance.

Liu Jia smiled.

"It's not like I'm not coming back, don't be so sad. By the way, when I come back next time, I'll buy you a pair of sunglasses."

"Frog-eye sunglasses? What are frog-eye sunglasses?"

Upon hearing the name, Liu Jianye frowned.

A mirror is a mirror, glasses are glasses, what's this "frog-eye" thing?

Could it be a mirror that the toad is wearing?

Seeing Liu Jianye's strange expression, Liu Jia knew what he was thinking.

"Don't overthink it, bro. Aviator sunglasses are just big sunglasses, they look really cool on you!"

"Those eyes are like toad eyes, big and bright. If you wear them, you'll definitely turn heads!"

"I came back in a hurry this time and didn't have time to buy them. I'll definitely bring them for you and your sister-in-law next time I come back!"

Hearing Liu Jia mention the frog-eye glasses, both Cui Hongmei and Liu Jianye were dumbfounded.

What does this have to do with anything?

Why are they called frog-eye sunglasses? Why not turtle-eye sunglasses?

Liu Jianye was about to say something, but then realized that what he was about to say might sound harsh, so he swallowed the words back down.

Cui Hongmei covered her mouth and laughed.

I've never seen any aviator sunglasses before, but just thinking about them makes me feel uneasy.

I've seen what toad eyes look like; they're bulging and puffy. How could wearing them feel comfortable?

As the three were talking, Zhang Guilan's voice came over.

"Sanzi, are you busy right now? If you're free, come over and make dumplings with me. I've already chopped the meat filling."

"Great! Mom wants dumplings. Sister-in-law, you stay inside and rest. I'll go help."

After saying that, Liu Jia ran out in a flash.

Liu Jianye remained seated, still smiling as he looked at Cui Hongmei.

Feeling embarrassed by his gaze, Cui Hongmei quickly lowered her head.

"Why are you staring at me like that? Sanzi has already gone over to make dumplings, and you haven't gone over either. Your mother is going to scold you later."

Liu Jianye expressed his innocence, his voice revealing a sense of helplessness.

“I wanted to go and help, but I don’t know how to roll out dough or make dumplings. If I went there, I would just be poking around for nothing.”

"We're all from the same family, so why can't you do it, even though you three can?"

Cui Hongmei found it strange.

Logically speaking, Liu Jia is the youngest son in the family.

Even if we're talking about favoritism, the old couple should favor Liu Jia and make him do less work.

But the truth is that there are many jobs that Liu Jianye can't do, but Liu Jia can do them with ease.

What's going on?

Cui Hongmei looked puzzled, but Liu Jianye laughed.

"I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me now, but do you know about Sanzi and Guo Xiaoyan's affair?"

Cui Hongmei nodded.

A few years ago, who didn't know Guo Xiaoyan, the educated youth from Xili Village who was like a fairy?

Later, Liu Jia from Xili Village married Guo Xiaoyan. Everyone knows that.

Putting aside other places, in Xili Village alone, it's estimated that more than half of the young men are pursuing Guo Xiaoyan.

This matter caused quite a stir.

Seeing Cui Hongmei nod, Liu Jianye continued, "After Guo Xiaoyan married Sanzi, Sanzi listened to Guo Xiaoyan's every word."

"If Guo Xiaoyan tells him to go east, he dares not go west; if Guo Xiaoyan tells him to go south, he dares not go north."

"Sanzi learned all those skills from that time. Without Guo Xiaoyan, Sanzi wouldn't be so skillful now."

As soon as these words came out.

Cui Hongmei immediately understood what was going on.

Seeing Liu Jianye still smiling, Cui Hongmei pouted.

"Brother Jianye, what are you laughing at? Sanzi likes Guo Xiaoyan and is willing to do so many things for her. What's so funny about that?"

"Yes, yes, I'm not making fun of Sanzi, I just think that the two of them are like a bickering couple. The only person Sanzi is willing to give his all for is probably Guo Xiaoyan."

Cui Hongmei felt somewhat saddened after hearing this.

Liu Jia loved Guo Xiaoyan so much, yet the two of them divorced.

Dinner was especially lavish.

Pork and scallion dumplings.

When making dumplings, Liu Jia suggested not putting cabbage in them, but adding scallions instead.

So when everyone ate the dumplings with meatballs inside, their expressions were incredibly surprised.

After the meal, Qin Chunyan helped clear the dishes.

Liu Jia then returned to his room.

Lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), Liu Jia felt somewhat uneasy.

I tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Logically speaking, I haven't had a moment's rest since I got back, and I've finally resolved all the issues I had to think of. Now I should be able to get a good night's sleep.

But Liu Jia was very uneasy, feeling as if something was about to happen.

In the end, Liu Jia didn't even know when he fell asleep.

The next morning, Liu Jia had just finished breakfast when Wang Liqiu suddenly rushed in.

"Third Brother!"

Wang Liqiu's voice was loud, and he sounded very happy.

Liu Jia quickly stepped forward and tried to wink at Wang Liqiu.

Wang Liqiu kept his mouth shut, but now he's so happy, could it be that he sold those few silver dollars?

Did you make a lot of money from it, so you told yourself that this is what happened?

In an instant, Liu Jia's heart jumped into his throat!

"We'll talk about it later, you can take your time first."

As soon as Liu Jia finished speaking, Wang Liqiu began waving his hands vigorously.

"Third Brother, we can't delay! There's a car parked in front of your house. Didn't you hear any noise?"

"What car?"

Liu Jia was so focused on eating that he didn't hear any noises coming from inside, so he had no idea what Wang Liqiu meant by the car.

Fortunately, what Wang Liqiu was talking about wasn't about silver dollars, which put Liu Jia's mind at ease.

"You really don't know? Let's go out and take a look. I reckon they're probably looking for your car, which is parked in front of your house."

Since he had nothing better to do, Liu Jia decided to go out with Wang Liqiu.

As soon as they stepped outside, a man jumped out of the jeep.

The man had a serious expression, was neatly dressed, and his square face was expressionless.

Upon seeing Liu Jia, he respectfully addressed him as "Young Master Liu."

Young Master Liu?

What kind of master?

Wang Liqiu was completely stunned.

Liu Jia was also stunned for a moment, then thought of Liu Dongpo, and realized that the person on the other end was calling him.

He had almost forgotten about this young master Liu's identity.

Looking back now, it seems like it happened a long time ago.

"What's your business?"

"Young Master Liu, could you please come with me? The boss needs to speak with you."

Liu Jia knew that the boss they were talking about was Liu Dongpo.

Having not heard any news of Liu Dongpo recently, Liu Jia had almost forgotten about the matter.

After a slight hesitation, Liu Jia glanced at Wang Liqiu beside him.

"Akiko, I have to go out for a bit. Are you alright? If anything comes up, we can talk about it when I get back."

Wang Liqiu looked nervous and quickly grabbed Liu Jia's arm.

"Third Brother, this won't do. My heart is pounding. Why don't I go with you? What if something happens to you?"

Wang Liqiu did not say the rest.

Seeing that the person in front of him didn't seem like a good person, Wang Liqiu was really afraid that something might happen to Liu Jia.

But as soon as Wang Liqiu finished speaking, the driver shook his head.

“You can’t go. Our boss wants to see Young Master Liu, not you.”

"Ah, why can't I go? I'm Third Brother's friend, what if something happens..." Before Wang Liqiu could finish speaking, the person next to him immediately interrupted him.

"If you say no, you can't."

When that person cast a sharp glance at him, Wang Liqiu's heart began to tremble again.

Wang Liqiu didn't say anything, but she didn't let go of Liu Jia's hand.

“It’s okay, I’ll be back in a bit,” Liu Jia said, glancing at the man. “Wait here for a moment, I’ll tell my family.”

"Okay, then I'll wait for Young Master Liu in the car."

When Wang Liqiu spoke to Liu Jia, the man was very polite, but she always felt that there was a murderous aura about him.

There's also an indescribable and ambiguous meaning.

Wang Liqiu couldn't explain what was going on, but she was inexplicably worried.

Seeing Liu Jia turn around, Wang Liqiu followed Liu Jia back.

After walking only a few steps, Wang Liqiu began to whisper, "Third Brother, you must be careful. I don't think that person is a good person."

"Don't worry, it's okay."

"The 'Little Liu' they're talking about is you? Third Brother, when did you become Little Liu?"

There are just too many things that Wang Liqiu doesn't understand.

But Wang Liqiu also knew that he was just asking casually.

There's probably no time for Liu Jia to explain all that now.

"I'll tell you later. Oh, and you absolutely must keep what happened that night a secret, or you'll cause any trouble."

Wang Liqiu nodded solemnly, guaranteeing it word by word.

"Don't worry, Third Brother, I'll take this secret to my grave!"

"Don't talk nonsense, just don't let it slip one day."

"I absolutely won't let it slip; this is a big deal."

Like the jar they dug out that night, and the silver coins inside, Wang Liqiu's heart began to pound again.

Liu Jia gave him three silver dollars, which was a considerable sum of money.

Given his relationship with Liu Jia, he wouldn't tell anyone even if Liu Jia refused to give him the money, let alone now that he had already accepted Liu Jia's money.

They are brothers, and I would never betray them even if I died!

Not long after, Liu Jia led Wang Liqiu out.

Then, Liu Jia got into the jeep.

Wang Liqiu stood there until the jeep disappeared from sight before leaving.

Two hours later.

Liu Jia met Liu Dongpo.

Just as Liu Yurou said, Liu Dongpo had another woman by his side.

This woman looks very different from Yang Yiyi, but she also has a very hot figure.

Upon seeing Liu Jia approach, Liu Dongpo gave him a wink, and the woman beside him immediately left.

"It's been a long time! How have you been?"

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern, Mr. Liu."

Liu Jia answered very politely, but Liu Dongpo laughed.

"It's only been a few days, why are you being so distant with me? Come here, I have something to tell you."

Liu Jia was curious.

Logically speaking, his relationship with Lao Liu wasn't one of life-and-death commitment, yet Lao Liu trusted him implicitly.

This has something to do with Liu Yurou.

But Liu Jia still felt that the matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

Liu Jia stepped forward and came to Liu Dongpo's side.

Liu Dongpo pointed to a blueprint in front of him and said, "I took your advice and have been making investments lately. Look, these are all the factories I've invested in."

Liu Jia glanced at it briefly, then waited for Old Liu to continue.

But to everyone's surprise, Lao Liu didn't continue talking about investment; instead, he looked directly at Liu Jia.

"I'm really short-handed here, and my brain isn't working properly right now. When do you have time to come over and help manage things?"

"Master Liu, I..."

"I've said it a hundred times, call me Brother Liu!"

Before the formal conversation even began, Lao Liu couldn't help but remind Liu Jia how to address him.

"Okay, Brother Liu, what I mean is, I just started university now, so time might be a bit tight."

“It’s okay. Aren’t you supposed to rest on Saturdays and Sundays? You can manage things during that time. It’s not like you have to stay in the factory 24 hours a day.”

After Lao Liu finished speaking, Liu Jia was completely dumbfounded.

I thought I would never have any more contact with Lao Liu, but life is so unpredictable, and I might end up being tied to him.

For a moment, Liu Jia couldn't think of a reason to refuse.
