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

Just moments before, Zhang Xiuying was worried about Guo Xiaoyan, fearing that the child's body wouldn't be able to withstand the lack of food.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Xiuying saw Guo Xiaoyan rush out of the house and head straight for the dining table, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The old saying goes that everything has its counter, and that's really true. Guo Xiaoyan isn't interested in other dishes, but when it comes to that old pickled vegetable, she treats it like a precious treasure.

"It's predetermined who controls whom."

Muttering something under her breath, Zhang Xiuying began to clear away the food.

……

Three days later.

Li Zhenhe drove his Gazi car to Xili Village.

As soon as they entered the village, the people working in the fields became excited.

Some people started whispering among themselves, some pointed and whispered, and some even went to find Zhou Caixia in advance.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Li Zhenhe looked at the strange expressions on people's faces, but he was already secretly overjoyed.

Previously, in front of everyone, Zhou Caixia said that she was his girlfriend, and Li Zhenhe felt a little uncomfortable.

Now, when he hears someone say that he and Li Zhen feel awkward if they don't bring Zhou Caixia along, it's quite a problem.

However, time was a bit tight today, and he couldn't stay in Xili Village any longer. Otherwise, Li Zhenhe really wanted to take a better look at Zhou Caixia.

The roads in the village were difficult to travel, so Li Zhenhe found a flat spot to stop.

As soon as I jumped off the bus, the work recorder was already smiling and looking this way.

"Comrade Li, who are you here to see this time?"

In the past, when the work recorder saw Li Zhenhe, he knew that Li Zhenhe had come to see Liu Jia.

But things are different now. Everyone in Xili Village knows he is Zhou Caixia's boyfriend, so Li Zhenhe's appearance now might be because he's here to see Zhou Caixia.

Seeing the questioning look on the other person's face, Li Zhenhe smiled and scratched his head. "I'm looking for Liu Jia. Could you please call him for me?"

"No problem. Your status is different now. We're still relatives, so I'll definitely help you with this."

relative?

Li Zhen was stunned and didn't recover for a long time.

Finally, the work recorder explained with a smile, "I'm related to the team leader's family, and besides, you'll be the son-in-law of our Xili Village in the future, so you're practically family."

Li Zhenhe suddenly realized, and although he felt a little embarrassed, he was secretly delighted.

"Liu Jia, put down what you're doing, someone's here to see you!"

The work recorder looked up and let out a loud shout.

At this moment, Liu Jia, who was working with his head down, noticed that Li Zhenhe had arrived.

"Second Brother, you go ahead with your work, I'll go check on Brother Li."

"Okay, don't worry about it, I'll finish this. By the way, Sanzi, the number of baskets you requested has been sorted out, and there are even twenty left over."

"understood."

The baskets for Qingcheng were already prepared, and Li Zhenhe was driving over in his truck, so everything was just right.

As for the extra twenty baskets, that doesn't matter. Just bring them all together; there's no need to be so particular.

As Liu Jia passed by Zhou Caixia, he coughed deliberately. Zhou Caixia was about to roll her eyes at Liu Jia, but her face immediately turned red.

"Caixia, is that Comrade Xiao Liu?"

An older woman next to me had her eyes light up and was full of questions.

Zhou Caixia readily agreed, "They should be asking Third Brother to come and get the basket."

Everyone in the village knew that some women, led by Zhou Caixia, were weaving baskets for Liu Jia, so Zhou Caixia's statement was plausible.

However, many young women and married women still carefully observed Zhou Caixia.

That's what they said, but everyone could see that Li Zhenhe was staring straight at Zhou Caixia, his eyes practically overflowing with tears.

Immediately, the surrounding area was filled with envious voices, and sounds of clicking lips could be heard from time to time.

"Brother Li, is everything packed up over there?"

"Hmm, shall we set off now?"

"Let's go. Oh, right, we need to bring Uncle Zhou along. All my things are at his house, and we also need him to write me a letter of introduction."

Now Liu Jia has figured out the trick: whenever he goes on a long trip, he asks Zhou Fengshou to give him a letter of introduction.

First, with a letter of introduction from the village, you don't have to carry your household registration book back and forth. Second, in the face of some unexpected situations, the letter of introduction can sometimes be a great help.

"Okay, I'll go tidy up the car first."

Upon hearing that Zhou Feng was to be taken back, Li Zhenhe dared not delay for a moment. He genuinely wanted to marry Zhou Caixia, and naturally, he had to take his future father-in-law seriously.

Liu Jia saw through Li Zhenhe's little scheme, chuckled a few times, and then went to Zhou Fengshou to explain what was going on.

"I have no problem getting a letter of introduction. I won't take the car. You guys go back first, I'll be there shortly."

Zhou Fengshou still has a high opinion of Li Zhenhe.

However, considering that Caixia and Li Zhenhe are not yet engaged, Zhou Fengshou still felt it was best not to be so ostentatious.

Riding in a rickshaw is certainly impressive, but I'm too old to show off.

But Liu Jia didn't think so.

"Uncle Zhou, why don't you come up and sit down with us? It's not like there's no room. If you don't come up, Caixia will feel even more embarrassed to come up."

"What? Why is Caixia coming up here?"

Zhou Fengshou was completely bewildered and somewhat confused.

Liu Jia, however, spoke up in a serious tone: "We have to let Caixia go back with us, right? The pattern and quantity of flowers in this basket were all arranged by Caixia. We need to find out before we leave."

After Liu Jia explained it to him, Zhou Fengshou finally understood.

Looking at his daughter not far away, and then at Liu Jia right under his nose, Zhou Fengshou hesitated for a while before finally agreeing.

If I get into Li Zhenhe's car to go back, I'm afraid people will gossip. But if I don't get in and just let Caixia go with them, then people will talk even more.

Zhou Fengshou finally steeled himself and nodded.

"Dude, could you call Zhou Caixia again? We need to count the number of baskets."

Liu Jia made another request to the work recorder.

Without hesitation, the work recorder opened his mouth and shouted, just like before.

"Zhou Caixia, come here for a moment, someone is looking for you."

Ever since Li Zhenhe arrived, Zhou Caixia had been feeling a little flustered. Now, when she heard the work recorder calling her, she lowered her head as much as she could.

Seeing this, the women around started to jeer, saying all sorts of things. Zhou Caixia's face turned as red as a bright red cloth, as if it were about to bleed.

A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of Zhou Fengshou's house.

Liu Jia followed Zhou Fengshou into the house to get the letter of introduction, while Li Zhenhe and Zhou Caixia counted baskets outside.

"These twenty are from the Hongxing Supply and Marketing Cooperative. They all have red ropes tied to the top of their baskets. The Qingcheng Supply and Marketing Cooperative is located here. Make sure you put them in the right place. Those baskets without ropes will have to be transported to Qingcheng."

Zhou Caixia spoke very seriously, her eyes fixed on the basket.

Although Li Zhenhe was nodding, he kept glancing at Zhou Caixia every now and then.

Zhou Caixia seems even more beautiful than before, after just a few days apart.

Those eyes were watery, dark and bright, like black grapes in a field.

He speaks clearly and concisely, without any hesitation, which shows he has the demeanor of a leader.

"Li Zhenhe, what are you thinking about? Did you remember what I just said?"

Seeing Li Zhenhe in a daze, Zhou Caixia couldn't help but ask another question.

"Oh, listen carefully, the ones with red ribbons and the ones without ribbons need to be separated. One is from the Hongxing Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and the other is from Qingcheng."

Hearing that Li Zhenhe was right, Zhou Caixia finally felt relieved.

"Hey, Caixia, I have some cloth coupons for you. I'm a grown man, I don't need that many."

Li Zhenhe was a little reserved, and he kept reaching into his pocket as he spoke.

Zhou Caixia hurriedly refused after hearing this, and even took two steps back.

"No, we have cloth coupons."

"I have a lot here, and they'll expire if they go bad. You're a girl, so you should dress up nicely."

As he spoke, Li Zhenhe laughed.

Zhou Caixia blushed.

When Li Zhenhe pulled out the cloth ration coupons, Zhou Caixia was startled!

Good heavens, how many cloth coupons are there?

Such a huge stack!

Zhou Caixia hadn't planned to accept these in the first place, and seeing the large number of cloth coupons, she dared not accept them anymore.

"No, I can't just accept your things."

Li Zhenhe froze, staring straight at Zhou Caixia.

"What do you mean by that? You admitted to everyone a couple of days ago that I'm your girlfriend, so why are you still keeping things so separate from me?"

After saying all this, Li Zhenhe's heart was in his throat, and he immediately asked another question.

"Caixia, you haven't changed your mind, have you? You don't like me anymore?"

"I……"

Zhou Caixia felt like she had a rabbit inside her; she never expected Li Zhenhe to ask so directly.

"You really regret it? Caixia, don't be in such a hurry. I think we can give it a try. If you really don't like me, I won't bother you."

"What did you say?!"

Zhou Caixia pouted and quickly turned away.

At this moment, Li Zhenhe's forehead was already covered in a layer of sweat.

What are you two doing?

Upon hearing Liu Jia's voice, Li Zhenhe rushed over and grabbed Liu Jia's arm.

"Brother, you have to help me, Caixia, she..."

Before Li Zhenhe could finish speaking, Zhou Caixia stomped her foot.

"Li Zhenhe, don't talk nonsense. I didn't say anything. Don't make wild guesses!"

Li Zhenhe was completely stunned.
