But the voice seed sowhat familiar.
Ah Chen recalled for a mont and quickly rembered who it was, whispering to Chen Xiuying, "It seems to be a youth from the village."
Chen Xiuying frowned. A youth, what’s a youth doing looking for her youngest daughter?
The villagers actually had so opinions about the educated youth; firstly, they weren’t very efficient at work, and secondly, to make things easier, so would quickly marry villagers. But since it’s a matter of mutual consent, she wouldn’t say much. Not that she thought badly of people, but given the chance, how many of these people would want to stay back?
The most morable one was Gu Lingfei, didn’t Su Man just get abandoned?
If this happened to any family, they would be reluctant to make a fuss, wouldn’t that be embarrassing for their family?
So even if they were upset, villagers wouldn’t make a scene over such matters, nor would they report it, unless there was no other way, and they had to fight to the death.
Ah Chen had already opened the door, and standing there was the youth she had so impression of, not bad looking, but after years of labor in the village, his skin had darkened quite a bit.
"Comrade i Shijie, is there sothing you need?" Ah Chen asked, not inviting him inside.
They really weren’t familiar.
Moreover, the other person ca looking for her, sothing that was not in the Commissioner’s mory.
But on second thought, at this ti, the Commissioner was already married to Yu Jinyong, so i Shijie certainly couldn’t have co looking for her.
At the mont he saw Ah Chen, i Shijie was briefly amazed, but quickly regained his composure.
"I mainly wanted to borrow a couple of books from Mr. Jiang."
"What books?" Ah Chen asked, wondering if i Shijie’s family had revealed any news and he was here to borrow textbooks. If it were just that, she would be willing to accommodate. Even if she didn’t lend them, he wouldn’t give up and could find them sowhere else.
Jiang Aiguo was the team leader; although he wasn’t close to these young folks, he could show them so respect.
"High school textbooks," i Shijie said, "I just want to borrow them to copy, and I’ll return them once I’m done."
"However, it’s been many years since I left those books behind, and there might be many things I don’t understand. I wonder if it’s possible to ask Mr. Jiang so questions?" At this point, i Shijie lowered his voice, "I think that for a matter of studying, it’s best not to forget these bits of knowledge; you never know when they might co in handy in the future."
Ah Chen understood, the other person was hinting at future changes.
At the sa ti, she also realized that the other person had other thoughts and was interested in her, seeing his gaze sowhat passionate, full of expectations, excitent, and nervousness.
Even if she was good-looking and from a decent family, it wasn’t enough for him to show such an expression.
A reincarnator?
Ah Chen probed a bit, and sure enough, the soul had the aura of reincarnation.
So that’s how it was.
Upon further observation, besides anticipation, the other person didn’t harbor any malicious intent, and he even gave her a reminder, not a bad sort. Wanting to find himself an excellent wife or a backer wasn’t really wrong.
"I can lend you the books. I’m quite busy lately, you’ll have to figure it out yourself. If there’s sothing you don’t understand, you can discuss it with the other educated youth on your side, or you can find an opportunity to ask my brother." Ah Chen cut off further hopes of i Shijie advancing any further. "Do you still want them?"
i Shijie understood, feeling a bit disappointed.
He originally intended to give it a shot; he even dressed up a little today, but indeed, the big shot still wasn’t interested in him.
Seeing his appearance, Ah Chen knew what he was thinking.
It seed he wasn’t harboring any ill intentions.
She didn’t have any issues with reincarnators or transmigrators, considering she herself was a Missionary. Knowing it’s their opportunity, apart from their own cause and effect, as long as they don’t actively harbor harmful intentions, she didn’t require them to possess particularly noble moral character.
After all, humans should have emotions and desires.
i Shijie quickly said he wanted them and also dispelled further thoughts.
Lately, he was aware of the news about matchmakers trotting down the Jiang family’s threshold. Facing such an outstanding girl, no one wouldn’t be interested. He just ca to try his luck, and the outco was sowhat predictable.
Ah Chen returned to the house and found a set of high school textbooks.
When handing them to i Shijie, he emphasized once again, "Mr. Jiang, don’t forget to often look over these, they might co in handy in the future."
"Alright," Ah Chen agreed.
As long as he’s not harboring ill intentions, that’s fine.
i Shijie, holding the textbooks, walked toward the educated youth center filled with regret. No matter what, his fate was considered to have changed. If the big shot listened to his advice and started studying early, perhaps they might perform better in exams this ti than in their last life, at least he played a minor role?
At this mont, he suddenly stopped in his tracks and quickly took a different path.
Recently, he avoided going near water whenever possible, and he would call another educated youth along when in remote areas, to avoid being sched against. There was a crazy woman in the village who fancied him. At first, she wasn’t really crazy. She seed quite nice, gentle, and soft.
How could he have known it was all her sche?
What was more infuriating was that this person feared he would run away, not only obstructing his studies but also sold his admission notice. A complete madwoman, he spent eight years getting rid of her. But the best tis were forever lost.
This life must be entirely free from her!
Even the big shot wasn’t interested in him.
Ah, who wouldn’t like soone as charming as Jiang Chen? He was dreaming, really.
So he’d just be an emotionless study machine.
Afraid of any unexpected change, i Shijie took off running.
"He doesn’t seem to have gone this way." The woman waiting by Yantang frowned, sowhat displeased. While initially fine, lately, it had been challenging for her to encounter i Shijie alone.
"Xiaoi, who was that?" Su Man asked. She didn’t co over, rely standing from a distance. Her belly had already rounded noticeably, and she didn’t dare wander about. Lately, she’d been keeping to herself, taking extra care of the child inside her.
The educated youth center in the village was quite far from here. Whether in the past or this life, Su Man wasn’t familiar at all with the educated youth in Jixiang Village and paid them little attention. She had even grown a dislike for them and didn’t want much to do with them, still bothered by Gu Lingfei leaving without a word.
"An educated youth who ca to borrow books."
"Borrow books? For what purpose?" Su Man imdiately beca alert.
Did soone from the educated youth center know about the upcoming resumption of college entrance exams?
Thinking about it upset her. Yu Jinyong really was useless; after all this ti, he still hadn’t secured Jiang Chen.
What should she do?
Was she really going to watch Jiang Chen go off to college?
She was so unwilling, how could Jiang Chen have it so easy?
Lately, her greatest delight was knowing that Jiang Chen had lost her job.
"He said he didn’t want to forget this knowledge and reminded to look them over frequently." Ah Chen didn’t hold back, seeing Su Man’s face fall brought a bit of joy.
This could only make Su Man displeased, it wouldn’t affect anything else.
Su Man wished she could tear that talkative youth apart, what was he blathering on for?
"What’s the use of looking at those," Su Man said disdainfully, though internally she was frantic, "Now that you don’t have a job, isn’t Xiaoi considering finding a partner?"
"There’s no rush." Ah Chen replied with a smile.
Su Man clenched her fists. She was very anxious!
"Jiang Xiaoi." Just then, soone suddenly appeared besides them, greeting Ah Chen, "Do you rember that Yu Jinyong in town?"
What’s up with Yu Jinyong? Su Man’s attention was caught.
