Best friends transmigrate into a book! They marry a high-ranking official! If you run, I run too!

She genuinely thought Luo Qiao had something wrong with his head.

If anyone were a normal person, having learned from their previous experience, they wouldn't just avoid those two, but at least they wouldn't be so foolish as to actively go up to them again, right?

Zhong Meixian and Gu Jin exchanged a glance, also feeling that Luo Qiao seemed a little mentally unstable.

Whether someone does the work or not is their business.

It's fine to gossip about other people's affairs behind their backs, but to confront them to their face—who are you to ask who they are?

Otherwise, is it your place to interfere?

When Wen Tang told her to do it, Luo Qiao was momentarily speechless, but only for a moment.

She quickly raised her chin and said, "I'll do it."

Wen Tang and Chi Yue exchanged another glance, both seeing the look of disbelief in each other's eyes.

At this moment, Luo Tian also chased after them from outside.

She was embarrassed.

Her embarrassment couldn't stop Luo Qiao's "skill and boldness". Luo Qiao put down what she was holding and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing? Let me help you".

Zhong Meixian looked at the dough she was almost finished rolling out and refused without thinking, "No need, I'm going to make scallion pancakes, you young people don't know how to make them."

Luo Qiao glanced at the almost-finished dough, her eyes darting away. She really didn't know how to do it. She could manage to stir-fry a dish, but kneading dough and rolling out wrappers was a real challenge for her.

But Zhong Meixian said, "You young people wouldn't know how either," so Luo Qiao tried to struggle.

Wen Tang and Chi Yue just don't know how, but if she were the female lead, she definitely could... she could do it. Luo Qiao thought this, and was about to say that she "could" do it when...

Zhong Meixian spoke first, "Little educated youth, what brings you here?"

When Zhong Meixian spoke, she looked at her with a deep frown, the meaning of which was very clear: if you have nothing to do, go back to where you came from and don't get in my way.

Luo Qiao seemed oblivious to others' opinions. After Zhong Meixian finished speaking, she actually nodded. "Tian Tian and I went to town and brought back some chicken cakes from the town's supply and marketing cooperative. I thought you probably haven't tried them before, so I came here specifically to find you and share some with you."

As she spoke, she bent down to untie the bag she had brought back, preparing to take out the sponge cake from the bag.

Her actions made Zhong Meixian forget about the flour in her hands and reach out to stop her, "No, little educated youth, don't take it out, I don't like to eat that sweet stuff."

When her gaze fell on Wen Tang and Chi Yue, who were sitting, Zhong Meixian quickly added, "None of my family members like to eat this either."

So you really don't need to take it, just take it home and eat it yourself!

“It’s not easy for you young people to come to the countryside. Take this back with you, and you can eat a piece whenever you’re hungry in the morning or evening, so you can eat it for a longer period of time.”

Zhong Meixian said so much, but Luo Qiao only had one focus: "Auntie, have you ever eaten sponge cake?"

Zhong Meixian "..."

She said helplessly, "They sell it everywhere outside, and it's not far from us, so we've tried it before."

"So take it back quickly!"

Luo Qiao frowned and couldn't help but mutter, "How come I've eaten all of this before!"

Wen Tang and Chi Yue sat there, staring at Luo Qiao as if he were an idiot.

She treats everything sold in the market as something rare, as if everyone else lives in a secluded mountain village.

This is a rural area not far from Haishi.

In the near future, truly developed first-tier cities will emerge.

Why do you have to assume that everyone else has never eaten sponge cake?

Zhong Meixian didn't hear Luo Qiao's mutterings, but she dared not get involved with the two sisters. She said to Luo Tian, ​​"Luo Zhiqing, hurry up and take your sisters back. It's getting late. Look how many things you bought. Go back and settle in as soon as possible."

Luo Tian was already wishing she could disappear into a hole, and when she heard Zhong Meixian say this, she immediately nodded. She was carrying too many things, so she could only put down one hand first, and then she pulled Luo Qiao, "Sister Luo Qiao, let's... go back first. It's getting late, and Auntie needs to cook."

Luo Tian pulled Luo Qiao towards the Gu family's courtyard. Before being dragged out, Luo Qiao's eyes still darted back and forth between Wen Tang and Chi Yue.

She still didn't think she had any problems with what happened today, but she felt that the two supporting actresses, Chi Yue and Wen Tang, had a lot of problems.

It must be those two female supporting characters who are talking behind her back, which is why she keeps running into obstacles in front of the male lead's mother.

Thinking this, before leaving the Gu family's courtyard, Luo Qiao glared at Wen Tang and Chi Yue, warning them with her eyes to wait.

Wen Tang and Chi Yue only made one perfectly synchronized movement: "Pah!"

Oh, don't get me wrong, they were just spitting out sunflower seed shells!

Luo Tian pulled the person out, then ran back to pick up her belongings, and apologized to Zhong Meixian, "I'm sorry, Auntie, Sister Luo Qiao didn't mean any harm, please don't mind."

Zhong Meixian forced a smile. "I know, but Luo Zhiqing, your sister is..." Zhong Meixian hesitated, "...too enthusiastic."

“We know she meant well, but we don’t need it, so…”

Before Zhong Meixian could finish speaking, Luo Tian nodded hurriedly, "I understand, Auntie, I will definitely persuade her."

"I will definitely not let her rudely approach you again next time."

Zhong Meixian smiled and nodded, "Alright then, I won't keep you here."

Luo Tian struggled to carry her things, forcing a smile. "No, no, we have things to do back home. Auntie, we're leaving."

Zhong Meixian then fell silent.

As soon as the two left, Zhong Meixian complained to Gu Jin and the others, "Why do I find Luo Zhiqing's sister so strange?"

Why does she do things without any method or order?

Gu Jin shook her head. "I don't know. Maybe they come from big cities and have different ideas than us."

As Luo Qiao walked back to the former educated youth settlement, she was still brooding over the question, "Are people in the countryside living such good lives now?"

"She's an old lady who's eaten sponge cake?"

Luo Tian, ​​carrying two bags, walked with difficulty. Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but say, "Comrade Gu's family is definitely better off than the other families in the brigade. Comrade Gu has been in the army for many years and is a battalion commander with a high allowance. His family doesn't have any extra brothers, so they must have some extra money. It shouldn't be difficult for them to eat this stuff."

"Besides, it's also possible that someone else gave it to me."

Luo Qiao nodded, then started complaining again, "I'm exhausted. If there's no car next time, I'm never going to town again."

Luo Tian gritted her teeth, carrying the things in her hands, not wanting to say a word.

Luo Qiao still had the energy to complain, but she didn't even have the energy to complain anymore.

Luo Qiao complained of being tired. When she returned to the educated youth settlement, she threw down her things and collapsed onto the bed.

Looking at the things the two had bought, and then at the stove that had just been built, Luo Tian could only endure her exhaustion, take out the pot, and place it on the stove.

Bowls, plates, chopsticks, and spoons were all sorted out and put away.

Luo Qiao lay on the bed watching Luo Tian busy herself, and then began to praise Luo Tian, ​​"Tian Tian, ​​you're so capable. I can't do it. Walking these roads is practically killing me."
