"Lan Ying, you don’t know. Xiao Tan has really changed a lot, but he’s even better looking now. Why does he like that girl Su Yuanyuan? What’s so good about her?"
Zheng Lanying thought to herself that even with his eyes closed, he wouldn’t choose soone like her.
"Lan Ying, do you think I still have a chance? I think my dad is really in a hurry this ti."
"Dongi, I think people should pursue their own happiness."
This made Ma Dongi feel like she finally found a kindred spirit.
"Lan Ying, you understand . I just like good-looking n. What’s wrong with that? Just take a look at the guys my parents have introduced to ."
"They can’t even compare to a corner of Tan Shaoting."
"Yeah, Tan Shaoting is indeed quite outstanding."
"You haven’t fallen for Tan Shaoting too, have you?" Ma Dongi eyed Zheng Lanying warily.
Zheng Lanying thought to herself, is this Ma Dongi sick or sothing?
"I haven’t. I know he has a wife."
"So does that an you would like him if he didn’t have a wife?"
"No."
She had given up on Tan Shaoting; that man was too cold. And most importantly, he looked down on her. That absolutely wouldn’t do.
No matter how good he looked, there was no way she could degrade herself just to please him.
Feelings between a man and a woman should never be like that. Even if they force themselves to be together, the one who loves more will have a tough ti in the future.
"Lan Ying, do you think there’s anything I can do?"
Zheng Lanying raised an eyebrow. "What can you do? He has a wife, and now three children."
"Is this Su Yuanyuan a pig? How could she have so many kids?"
Zheng Lanying looked at Ma Dongi’s twisted expression, warning herself she must not be like that. It’s too ugly.
"How could she have so many children?" Ma Dongi was genuinely jealous of Su Yuanyuan.
She’d never heard of anyone having three kids before.
Why does she seem to get all the good things? A handso, capable man, and now three children.
"Lan Ying, you’ve really done it this year. You even paid off the debts and still have money left." Sohow the topic shifted.
Zheng Lanying hated it when others talked to her about this. She knew it wasn’t right to use Xiang Zhiqiang like that. But she really couldn’t manage it herself.
It wasn’t just one acre; it was one hundred acres. What could she do without anyone helping her?
She rembered the spring planting. She didn’t even know how to hitch the mule. Who would know that feeling of helplessness?
The first ti soone helped her, she felt like she was sinking. Couldn’t get out of it at all. Gradually, she got used to it.
It wasn’t like she actively sought help; they just ca offering.
Though she knew their intentions were impossible, she would never randomly pick a man from there.
Ma Dongi felt satisfied, now happily pointing out others’ weak spots in front of others. Seeing Zheng Lanying silent made her even happier.
"Lan Ying, don’t tell you’ve set your sights on Xiang Zhiqiang. That guy is nothing. Plus, he’s been married before—you can’t marry him."
Zheng Lanying listened to Ma Dongi’s complacent words, filled with disdain for Xiang Zhiqiang.
She suddenly laughed, thinking to herself, weren’t you the one who didn’t like Xiang Zhiqiang? I’ll make you marry him, disgust you for a lifeti.
"Dongi, do you still have any chores at ho?"
"Shelling corn, but my hands hurt. Too lazy to do it."
"Whenever you have ti, co over and hang out with ."
Let you see what it’s like to end up with the man you looked down on? Will you still be so arrogant?
The two of them were inwardly despising each other while still lying on the sa kang, chatting idly.
When Tan Shaoting got ho, he quickly washed up with hot water, then sat for a while in the main room before entering the other room.
Seeing his wife washing their young woman’s bottom.
"Why are you washing her at this ti? Wait for to co back."
"The girl wet herself. Cleaned her up but still wasn’t okay, so I had to wash her."
"Up to you, neat freak."
"I wasn’t like that."
The little girl’s eyes darted about intelligently, exhibiting the special liveliness from drinking the Spiritual Spring Water.
After finishing up, she was finally dressed in her little clothes.
"Yuanyuan, do you want to eat anything else?"
"No, just a bowl of soup later will do."
Mainly because she’s breastfeeding the three kids. Otherwise, she definitely wouldn’t eat anything so late.
Su Yuanyuan asked Tan Shaoting to prepare water for her, and after she freshened up, she lay down.
"I was thinking of talking to Feng Baoshan in a few days about you leaving with . Procedures are required here; I think I still need to go to the city."
"Go ahead, I don’t have much to do now, just the sheep and the little mule left. It’s manageable."
"Besides, I can look after the three kids myself. You do your thing."
"I’ll leave at night, drive there."
"Hmm, that way it’ll be quicker."
The next day, Tan Shaoting heard Su Yuanyuan sitting on the kang directing them to marinate the offal. One pot contained organs, another had the pig head and feet.
The intestines were already cleaned, ready to be stuffed when they had ti, making it convenient for eating. They still had a lot of at in their space.
Especially more beef.
Thinking of making more beef jerky, it’s more convenient to do it here. Honestly, if they went to the border with him, it wouldn’t be as practical to stew at like this.
With the kang too hot, even the three kids couldn’t stay at the further end. Su Yuanyuan went through the space but couldn’t find anything suitable, so she had to cover them with all the bedding at ho.
anwhile, the next day Ma Dongi sneaked ho, and not seeing her dad relieved her.
"Dongi, don’t make your dad angry anymore. Yesterday your dad said to find you a husband quickly."
"I won’t. I want to find soone on my own." Seeing her siblings busy shelling corn, she quickly grabbed her quilt and ran out. In this cold weather, the only place to go was Zheng Lanying’s house.
Zheng Lanying was also sitting on her kang shelling corn. Actually, they didn’t know she hadn’t even handed in her corn because she planted little. Knowing wheat fetched a higher price than corn, she only grew ten acres of it, slowly shelling it herself.
Keeping enough for the little mule was all she wanted. She didn’t want to eat one bit of it.
Seeing Ma Dongi move in with her quilt, she smiled.
This is your own doing, so don’t bla .
"Lan Ying, I ca to keep you company."
"Alright." She even brought her luggage.
Ma Dongi lay directly on the kang, chatting with Zheng Lanying, but would never help with shelling corn.
She hated that job the most. It really hurt her hands.
Zheng Lanying kept shelling corn, pondering how to make them two a couple without getting herself involved.
Xiang Zhiqiang was probably going to co over in the next couple of days. It wouldn’t do, the two of them needed to be made a couple soon.
