Male protagonist, please think twice, I am a villain and cannot kiss you

An Chen hurriedly stopped her: "No, no, no, no, that's not necessary, Aunt He, this chicken has to be kept for laying eggs."

Aunt He said, "You're welcome. I have a lot of chickens, so I'm not afraid of losing this one."

An Chen said, "Aunt, I'm not being polite, it's just that we don't have enough time. We need to prepare food for more than 20 people before 7 o'clock."

"Oh, I see. Time is really tight. We don't have time to kill the chicken." Aunt He nodded, patted her chest and said, "Then don't kill it. Leave the vegetables to Aunt He. I guarantee that your two baskets will be filled."

Aunt He took out her phone, opened the group, and sent a voice message, saying, "Jinfeng, Guifang, Aunt Chun...Do you have any extra vegetables at home? Anchen needs some vegetables now. If you have any extra vegetables at home, please send some to my house. Anchen is waiting here."

Many people in the group quickly responded to the message.

Aunt He put down her phone and said, "Don't worry, they will be here soon, just wait a moment."

Aunt He said this and sat down opposite An Chen, picked up the needle and thread on the chair and started embroidering again.

An Chen moved a chair closer and said, "Aunt He, the lotus you embroidered is really beautiful."

Aunt He smiled and said, "That's right, I'm not bragging. My embroidery skills are among the best in the whole Shiming Village."

"Does everyone in Shiming Village know how to embroider?"

"The older generation basically knows how to do it, but few young people know how to do it, and they don't want to learn." Aunt He chatted while embroidering, "But it's understandable. You can't master this skill without a few years of practice. Even a skilled embroiderer would need at least a day to embroider a small handkerchief, so the price is naturally not cheap. But now machine embroidery is convenient, and the handkerchiefs made by machine embroidery are no worse than ours, so everyone is more willing to buy machine embroidery. If you learn to embroider every day, but no one buys it, naturally no one will learn it, and the young people will go out to work."

An Chen shook his head and said, "It's different. Machine embroidery is dead, but people are alive. The advantage of machine embroidery is that it is fast and can produce in large quantities to meet the needs of merchants with large quantities, which is something that hand embroidery cannot do. But the real good things cannot be embroidered by machines, especially in terms of detail processing. The most basic gradient color processing in hand embroidery cannot be solved by machine embroidery, not to mention double-sided embroidery. This is why things embroidered by machines are relatively rigid and lack spirituality."

Originally, Aunt He was just chatting and complaining, but she didn't expect An Chen to know all this. She asked in surprise, "You know all this?"

An Chen was stunned. He also wondered how he knew all this. He was too lazy to think about it because he couldn't remember it. He just said casually, "I saw it in a book before."

Aunt He said with a smile: "You are a well-behaved and sensible child. You can tell at first glance that you are a good kid who loves to study."

Chen Danyun, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but curl her lips when she heard this. He was just a nouveau riche, how could it be so good?

An Chen actually wasn't too sure. Although he had traveled through time and space into this body, he only had a general idea of ​​the original owner's past and couldn't remember the details at all.

It’s like An Chen knew which elementary school and middle school the original owner attended, but he couldn’t remember who his classmates and teachers were during middle school, or what interesting activities he participated in, especially things before he was 18 years old.

It feels like knowing the outline of this person's life story, but lacking the details to fill it in.

An Chen asked: "Aunt, I think the villagers don't like outsiders very much, why is that?"

Aunt He stopped embroidering, sighed, and said, "You should have noticed that most of the people in this village are old people and children, and there are not many young people."

An Chen nodded.

Aunt He said: "In the past, everyone made a living by relying on their craft, even if life was hard. Later, people said that they could make money outside, so more and more young people went out to work, resulting in only the elderly and children left in the village. Originally, these things would not make the villagers hate outsiders. The main reason was that before the Spring Festival three years ago, four outsiders came to the village and said they could take everyone abroad to make money. What they could earn in a year abroad was equivalent to the income of four or five years. Many people were tempted and followed them, but in the end, 13 people went out and only one came back."

When she talked about the latter part, Aunt He's eyes turned red and tears fell onto the embroidery cloth.

Chen Danyun was shocked and said, "I remember that three years ago, we uncovered a human trafficking case, that one..."

It is said that there are some people in the country who specifically trick people into going abroad, saying they are going to make money, but in the end they never come back.

The case was quite a big deal, and even someone like Chen Danyun who didn't pay much attention to the news had heard the news.

Aunt He's eyes were red as she said, "My eldest son originally wanted to go out to work for two years and then stay at home with me to farm, but he never came back after he left."

[I have also seen that news. Thirteen people went out and only one returned. The one who returned was seriously injured and had one kidney missing. It was so tragic.]

[I saw the villagers' bad attitude towards Chen Danyun and other guests on the show before, and I wondered why the whole village was so uncultured. So that's why.]

[To be honest, if I were to go through this kind of thing, I would also not like people from other villages to come in. Who knows if they are scammers again.]

[Has that damn liar been caught? People like him should go to hell. ]

[Even after such an incident, they were still willing to allow the program to be filmed in the village, which shows that they are still kind-hearted. The elderly in Shiming Village will live a long and happy life.]

An Chen didn’t know how to say comforting words, so he could only reach out to hug Aunt He and wipe her tears with the corner of his clothes.

Maomao, who was standing next to her, felt the sadness and also jumped onto Aunt He's lap.

Hearing the footsteps approaching from far away at the door, Aunt He quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, forced a smile and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore."

An Chen looked towards the door and saw Aunt Chun holding two fish in her left hand and a basket full of various vegetables in her right hand.

Behind her, other aunts were following behind her, carrying chickens, ducks, fish and meat, with enthusiastic looks on their faces.

"Anchen, Aunt Hua has brought you some food. See if this is enough?"

"Anchen, Auntie has some freshly made braised pork. I brought it to you in case you were hungry."

"These are the tomatoes and cucumbers that grandma just picked. They are so juicy. Eat them all."

An Chen looked at the enthusiastic faces and thought about the reason why they resisted outsiders from entering the village, and felt a little sad.

If the village could develop on its own, then those people would not have been deceived for the sake of making money, and the young people in the village would not have to leave home to make money, leaving the elderly and children alone at home.

Ten minutes later, An Chen was holding a tomato and biting it, walking slowly towards the courtyard, still thinking about what happened before.

He has never liked to use his brain. After thinking for ten minutes, he felt that his brain was about to be overgrown with blood. It gave him a headache. He decided to go back and ask his second brother. He stopped thinking about it.

Chen Danyun was carrying a load of vegetables in each hand and two fish hanging around her neck, walking without any image at all. Seeing An Chen's comfortable look, she finally couldn't help but speak.

"Anchen, how can you be so embarrassed to come here empty-handed? Can't you come over and help carry a basket?"

"We are a group. I want the dishes, and you carry the things. It's fair."
