Rural Friends Circle

There were footsteps at the door, and he turned around. Chen Yan was standing at the door, with sleepy eyes, looking particularly attractive.

"You only slept for an hour, why did you wake up?" He put away his phone and asked with a smile.

Chen Yan smoothed her hair with her fingers, thought for a while and said, "The weather is too hot, and it's a bit uncomfortable to sleep."

"There's no way. My shack will be demolished and a new house will be built soon, so there is no air conditioning installed. You will definitely not suffer so much next time you come." Tang Feng laughed and said with a smile.

"If it's really hot, go to sleep in the car, I'll help you turn on the air conditioner."

Chen Yan smiled and shook her head. She was not the kind of hypocritical woman. Even if there was no air conditioning, she could still make herself happy. For a girl from a poor family like her, using air conditioning in summer was a luxury.

"It's getting late, I should go back too."

Is it time to go back? Looking at the little woman in front of him, Tang Feng felt a little disappointed.

As if she saw Tang Feng, Chen Yan covered her lips with her jade hands, smiled gently, hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "I will go to my aunt's house tomorrow."

From the lotus field to Xing Beizi's house, from Xing Beizi's house to Chen Yan's house, Tang Feng served as a full-time driver. When he arrived at Chen Yan's house, it was already 9:30 in the evening.

In the rugged alley, Chen Yan's house was pitch black. The brick house was a little shabby, which formed a sharp contrast with the neat bungalows around it. However, it was comparable to his house.

Chen Yan's mother went into the house first and turned on the lights, but did not let Tang Feng in. Instead, she brought a bench and asked him to sit in the yard.

On a midsummer night, there was no wind at all, and there was no air conditioning in the house. It was surprisingly hot. Of course, Chen Yan's mother was still afraid that Tang Feng would look down on her family when he saw her situation.

"Auntie, please don't get water. We brought watermelons when we came back." Seeing Chen Yan's mother busy boiling water, Tang Feng hurriedly called her.

"Yes, mom, just take a break." Seeing her mother who was a little flustered, Chen Yan felt very uncomfortable. She had been considerate since she was a child, so how could she not understand her mother's earnest expectations.

Over there, Tang Feng washed the watermelon he brought back with cold water and put it on the table. Chen Yan went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife. Tang Feng took the kitchen knife and cut the round watermelon in half.

Chen Yan's mother sat there, watching her busy daughter and Tang Feng, and her heart was as sweet as eating candied dates.

This morning, after meeting Tang Feng, she liked this young man very much. After the two younger generations left, she met Tang Feng's parents again. They were both real rural people.

Originally, she was worried that her daughter was determined to go to Yanjing and looked down on Tang Feng, but now it seems that she was too worried. Judging from her daughter's attitude towards Tang Feng, her daughter seems to have some feelings for Tang Feng.

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. With her daughter's stubborn temper, if she said that she had no feelings for Tang Feng, she would definitely not accept Tang Feng's things.

My daughter, if you miss this village, you will miss this store. You have to grasp it well. Now, I don’t know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him. Looking at her daughter who is cutting watermelons with Tang Feng, she said in her heart.

The watermelon is very sweet, but if you say it is sweet to the heart, it is because the person who buys the watermelon may become her future son-in-law.

"Xiaofeng, I heard from your mother that you are doing breeding in your pond. The climate this year is good. The fish should be able to sell for a good price, right?" Chen Yan's mother looked at Tang Feng and asked with concern.

Tang Feng liked the way Chen Yan's mother looked at him. As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him. Maybe this is it.

"Well, it's good. A few days ago, I signed a contract with a big hotel in the city. They go there every day to pull fish. In this day, I can also earn thousands of dollars." In order not to scare Chen Yan's mother, Tang Feng gave a discount and said that the income of tens of thousands a day was thousands.

But even so, Chen Yan's mother was still shocked when she heard the number he said. If there is an income of thousands a day, then this month, it will be tens of thousands. In their place, how many families can earn tens of thousands a month?

Chen Yan sat next to her, eating watermelon, her beautiful eyes secretly looking at Tang Feng. She didn't plan to tell her mother that Tang Feng's current net worth is at least five or six million, and the income of thousands a day is nothing at all.

"It's tens of thousands of yuan a month, which is better than those white-collar workers in Yanjing. It's also close to home. I can take care of my parents with the money I earn." When she said this, Chen Yan's mother deliberately looked at Chen Yan.

This is using my story to educate Chen Yan. Our future mother-in-law is also a smart woman. I just listen and don't say anything. Tang Feng pursed his lips, picked up a piece of watermelon from the table, and took two big bites.

Chen Yan also knew that her mother said this to her, and she couldn't argue with her mother. She simply buried her head and stared at the watermelon in her hand.

Seeing that her daughter didn't respond, Chen Yan's mother could only sigh, and it was not good to preach to her daughter in front of Tang Feng, so she stopped the topic.

After sitting at Chen Yan's house for a while, Tang Feng got up and left. Chen Yan and her daughter sent him to the entrance of the alley. After he drove away, they went home.

"Yan, tell me what you think of Tang Feng?" After locking the door and returning to the house, the mother pulled Chen Yan and asked.

Chen Yan knew what her mother meant by asking this question. Although Tang Feng had left a good impression on her during the day, she was a girl after all, and she was shy and embarrassed to comment on a man of the same age in front of her mother.

"He... he is a good person."

Seeing her daughter's embarrassed look, Chen Yan's mother finally smiled again. If her daughter was not interested in Tang Feng, she would definitely not be so shy with her personality.

"I ran around all day today. Let me see what I bought."

Seeing that her mother no longer asked about Tang Feng, Chen Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief, got up and went outside, brought back the big and small bags she bought today, and put them all on the bed.

Chen Yan's mother sat on the bed, stroking these beautiful handbags with her palms. Although she had a smile on her wrinkled face, her heart was crying. Her daughter had grown up so big, but as a mother, she had never bought her a decent piece of clothing.

She opened the bag and took out the clothes inside. The aqua blue jumpsuit looked even more attractive under the light.

"Put it on for mom to see."

Looking at her mother with a strange look, Chen Yan was puzzled for a moment, but in the end she followed her mother's words and changed into her favorite jumpsuit and the pair of light blue low-heeled sandals.

Chen Yan was beautiful, but she usually wore simple clothes and didn't wear makeup, so she was not very conspicuous. But when she put on this aqua blue jumpsuit and the light-colored low-heeled sandals, she immediately turned from an ugly duckling into a white swan.

"If it weren't for these beautiful clothes and shoes, mom wouldn't know that my Yanzi is so beautiful. I think these clothes and shoes are not cheap, right?" The mother looked at Chen Yan and said in a calm voice.

Chen Yan always had a feeling that her mother's words were full of meaning. It seemed that she was praising her beauty and the beauty of the clothes and shoes, but it seemed to have another meaning.

She didn't dare to tell her mother that this jumpsuit cost 4,000 yuan and that pair of shoes cost more than 800 yuan, but she couldn't say against her will that these clothes and shoes were worthless. In the end, she could only nod her head without saying the specific price.

"Mom didn't go to school for a few days and didn't understand any big principles, but I always remember this sentence, never reach out to take other people's things, even if someone takes the initiative to give it to you, you can't take it, unless that person is your relative or lover." Chen Yan's mother's smile had long disappeared, and she said in a deep voice.

Very simple words, but with the true meaning of life, a rural person with backbone, even if life is difficult, but they will always abide by these simple life principles and walk all the way with a straight spine.

Chen Yan stood there, biting her lower lip, and her mother's words kept echoing in her mind.

"If you really want to go to Yanjing, return these clothes to him. He doesn't owe you anything. If... I mean if, you are willing to develop a further relationship with him, you can keep these clothes and shoes, but you have to remember that his money was earned through hard work. Respecting his efforts is equal to respecting yourself."
