Joe's Farming

On the first day of the new year, many people came to the Gu family to pay New Year's greetings as in previous years.

Even Gu Zao Zao, who had never been here before, came.

Together with Gu Xiuxiu, and with their little daughter.

"Yaxuan, come over here and call uncle."

A little girl about three years old called out to Gu Feng and Qiao Yu timidly.

Qiao Yu gave out New Year's money with a smile.

He still remembered Gu Zaozao, who had married a rich man in town as a concubine.

Later, Gu Feng asked Xu Yuan to inquire about it.

He is the second son of the Wen Family Bookstore in Taoyuan Town. I heard that he is a good person, but he married his second wife because his first wife had no children.

But because of this incident, Second Aunt scolded her harshly, so Gu Zaozao simply decided not to go back to her parents' home.

I didn't expect that he would take the initiative to come and move around this time.

When Gu Feng was a child, he liked this smart sister very much.

Gu Gang also wanted Hongxiu to spend more time with her two cousins, so the two families cordially invited them to stay for two days to strengthen their relationship.

The two sisters naturally agreed.

This time, Gu Xiuxiu still brought her husband and Zhang Xiaobao with her.

The three of them lived in Gu Feng's guest room.

Gu Zaozao and her daughter Yaxuan lived in the guest room of Gu Gang's house.

Gu Zaozao is very talkative and can pick up any sentence anyone says. There is almost never a dull moment as long as she is around.

Qiao Yu likes people like this, and chatting with them is not tiring at all.

Gu Zaozao and her daughter were dressed elegantly and seemed to be living a good life in the Wen family.

The adults chatted and the children played their own games.

Gu Xiaoxue and Gu Xiaoyan played house in the main room with their four younger brothers and sisters.

Qiao Xing accompanied his grandfather to the village to celebrate the New Year.

Li Xin was bored so he ran down the mountain to play with Xiaoyu and Baiming.

In the past two years, Li Xin still insisted that he and Ling Lie were good friends.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that their relationship was definitely more than just friendship.

Ling Lie is also patient and never forces Li Xin to make a choice.

Finally, Qiao Yu couldn't stand it anymore, so one day she asked him directly what he was thinking.

Li Xin said aggrievedly: "When I think about being raped by a man, and doing that, I feel terrified."

"So you actually like him too, but you're just scared of that?"

Qiao Yu analyzed.

Li Xin nodded.

"Have you ever tried kissing him?" Qiao Yu asked curiously.

Li Xin immediately took a step back and crossed his arms: "How could you think that? I feel sick when I think about eating other people's saliva."

Qiao Yu asked suspiciously, "Have you never been curious or imagined it?"

Li Xin blushed when she heard that.

Qiao Yu understood: "It's not my business to manage your affairs, but I want to remind you.

Ling Lie will be 23 this year, which is considered a very late marriage for them."

Li Xin stiffened his neck: "If he doesn't want to wait, just go ahead and get married. Anyway, I like the way it is now."

Qiao Yu held her forehead with her hand. It was obvious that Li Xin was interested in her, but he was just trying to hook someone else.

"Forget it. I can't control you. Take care of yourself."

Back to the present, Li Xin and Song Xiaoyu come to Bai Ming's house to pay New Year's greetings.

I saw Ling Lie helping to fetch water in the yard.

Bai Ming was standing under the eaves and talking to him, and the two of them looked particularly well-matched.

Li Xin suddenly remembered what Qiao Yu had said to him.

[Ling Lie will be 23 this year, which is considered a very late marriage for them.]

Bai Ming is one year older than Ling Lie, so doesn't that mean he will get married later?

Song Xiaoyu pushed him aside and said, "What's wrong with you? You're not moving. Come inside quickly. It's cold outside."

"Oh, good."

Bai Ming saw Li Xin and Song Xiaoyu coming and greeted them happily.

Ling Lie saw Li Xin and smiled at him as usual: "Xiao Xin."

Li Xin said "hmm" as a response.

When Mr. and Mrs. Bai saw that there were guests coming, they happily prepared tea and snacks and wanted to invite them to have dinner with them.

Ling Lie originally wanted to go back and eat with his brothers.

Finally, Li Xin said, "Okay, okay."

Ling Lie quickly agreed.

Bai Ming glanced at the two of them and took a sip of tea calmly.

While eating, Bai Ming suddenly asked Ling Lie: "Don't you have something to say to my parents?"

Ling Lie was at a loss: "What?"

Bai Ming looked aggrieved: "What do you think?"

Bai Mu asked cautiously, "You guys?"

Father Bai was overjoyed: "Oh, I told you long ago that Ling is someone you can trust for life. It's a good thing for you two to be together. Why did you hide it from me and your mother..."

Ling Lie wanted to retort, but saw Bai Ming winking at him.

Song Xiaoyu put down her chopsticks in shock and looked at Li Xin who was also shocked. She didn't know whether she should continue eating the meal.

Bai Ming complained, "Didn't we agree to come here today to talk it out? Why are you silent again now?"

Ling Lie didn't expect Bai Ming would even dare to say this, and looked at Li Xin in panic.

The latter was busy eating to hide his embarrassment. Feeling the silence around him, Li Xin raised his head and whispered, "I'm full."

"My brother... a lot of guests came today, and I have to go back to take care of the kids. I'll leave first."

Li Xin ran out after saying this.

Song Xiaoyu quickly stood up and wanted to chase Li Xin.

Bai Ming grabbed him and said, "Let him go."

Song Xiaoyu: ???

Bai Ming asked Ling Lie to chase Li Xin!

Ling Lie thanked Bai Ming and chased after him.

Song Xiaoyu: ...

Father Bai: ...

Mother Bai: "What's going on?"

Bai Ming shrugged and picked up the chopsticks: "Eat quickly, eat quickly. I see that those two guys haven't made a breakthrough in two years, so I'm here to help."

Father Bai glared at him depressedly: "Nonsense!"

Seeing that there were outsiders present, he softened his tone and said to Song Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, Ming'er was just talking nonsense just now, don't take it to heart."

Song Xiaoyu nodded quickly: "I understand, I understand!"

-

"Xiao Xin! Xiao Xin! Listen to me..."

Li Xin couldn't walk fast in the snow.

Ling Lie quickly caught up with the person.

He grabbed the person and turned his body towards him.

Li Xin put his hands in his pockets and buried his head.

Looks a bit pitiful.

"What are you running out for? Go back now at such an important time. I'm fine."

Li Xin's voice has a strong nasal tone and sounds like she is crying.

Ling Lie quickly lifted his head up.

Li Xin lowered his eyes and looked away, not looking directly at Ling Lie.

Ling Lie was relieved to see that Li Xin didn't cry.

"Xiao Xin, Bai Minggang did it on purpose. How could it be possible for me to be with him? He doesn't like me."

Li Xin was a little shaken. The tone of Bai Ming's voice just now was indeed different from his usual tone.

"But, but you didn't refute it!"

When Li Xin said this, he dared to look at Ling Lie again, with an expression of "Let me see how you try to quibble".

Ling Lie finally couldn't help but hug him tightly in his arms.

"Xiao Xin, just admit that you like me, too. I beg you, please come to your senses."
