[Urban] Enticing Fertile Fields: Aunt's Fertile Soil (Complete) - 25-27

101: Mother-in-Law and Daughter-

in-Law's Wild Encounters Haotian walked forward along the potato field, and the grove of trees came into view again. This time, he wasn't thinking about Fan Xia's white buttocks, but rather, the white buttocks reminded him of Liu Jin.

Would Liu Jin really come back? When would he come back? Where had he been all these years? If he came back, would he stay permanently, or would he just be staying temporarily? Did Fan Xia

still have feelings for Liu Jin? These questions appeared one after another in his mind. Since hearing the news of Liu Jin's return, he hadn't considered it at all. Because he believed that Fan Xia already belonged completely to him and would never waver.

But seeing the grove of trees, and thinking of how Fan Xia had bent over and made love with Liu Jin back then, and her resolute attitude in refusing his kiss just now, he suddenly wondered if he had been wrong?

It was very possible, otherwise why wasn't it like this before? Thinking of this, he became a little anxious. If that were the case, he would never give in. But if her feelings had changed and she was leaning towards Liu Jin, what use would force be? Isn't it just a case of "a toad jumping over a threshold, squatting on its bottom, and hurting its face"? This is, of course, just speculation; it's not clear yet, but one should be prepared for such a scenario. Therefore, he must re-observe and understand Fan Xia's heart, truly maintaining a serious and respectful attitude in her presence, never getting too close lest he be criticized by her.

He began to remind himself that this time was different from any other, and he couldn't be careless. Cultivating a strong, manly image in front of Fan Xia wasn't just about one rigid rule, but about many aspects. At this moment, he felt as if he had grown up a little more.

He had heard that young people inevitably make mistakes; the key is to correct them. Although he knew he should correct his mistakes, he never truly wanted to.

He also thought of an ancient proverb: "Be cautious even when alone." Being cautious even when alone means being careful and strictly demanding of oneself, not letting others' opinions lead to unfounded thoughts. Nowadays, people talk about protecting privacy, which actually contradicts "being cautious even when alone." Human behavior should be supervised; without supervision and restraint, behavior can become rampant.

In the past, emperors' behavior was unrestrained, leading to promiscuity and even the glorification of incest. So-called privacy, in essence, is nothing more than a matter of male-female relationships. Now, with less oversight and convenient communication, promiscuity becomes easier.

This is all common sense. Haotian had read many books; during his university years, thinking of Fan Xia was a beautiful thing. Her large, white buttocks seemed like the most beautiful thing in the world. Reading comforted his longing for Fan Xia.

He had read about the beauty of steadfast love, stories of people willing to go through fire and water for love. He had even resolved to hone his skills for the one he loved.

However, his self-control was too weak; his restless lower body always acted out—this was his weakness. Because he was handsome and liked to amuse women, they always acted alluring and flirtatious in his presence.

Frankly, before returning to the village, his behavior was indeed quite good. He was always thinking of Fan Xia; other women rarely moved him. But for some reason, lately, Mei had been letting that guy, who was always eager to take advantage of women, succeed.

Thinking of this, Haotian felt a pang of pain in his heart, feeling like a worthless person. Fan Xia's assessment of him as someone who only schemed was spot on. Her words were incisive, and her actions were something he should learn from. She had indeed sacrificed a lot for him.

He couldn't continue to indulge himself like this; he needed to read more books, think more deeply, and train his self-control.

He firmly believed that if he did well, Fan Xia's heart would continue to love him openly; if he didn't, it would be reasonable for Fan Xia to break off their relationship.

As for whether she still had a secret affair with Liu Jin, even if there was a hint of it, it was normal, after all, they had been together in the past. But given Fan Xia's personality, it was absolutely impossible for her to break off the relationship unless she had completely severed ties with him.

Haotian's mind was in turmoil, even he himself felt a little confused. Treat yourself with caution, treat Fan Xia with caution, treat everyone in the village with caution—this is something you must do. Don't be influenced by those around you; this is the key to overcoming your own faults.

Thinking of this, my mind seemed to brighten again. Humans always waver between clarity and confusion. Environment shapes people, and people shape the environment—these are two dialectically unified aspects. No one can escape the influence of their environment; it unconsciously shapes certain behavioral habits. Recognizing the harmfulness of one's own habits and consciously overcoming and conquering them is not impossible, but it's not easy.

Haotian made up his mind again. Will he change this time? We'll wait and see.

Haotian walked to the grove and saw many people hoeing and weeding in the fields, but he still didn't want to go over and chat with them. So he walked along the ditch beside the cornfield.

This was where he had his affair with the five women. Haotian looked at the cornfield beside the ditch and felt it was all so pointless; truly, human thoughts govern everything.

But then he remembered that he hadn't paid Yang Lianfang the money he promised to give her. Should he give it to her? Yang Lianfang refused outright and hadn't mentioned compensation that day, so it was better to pay up, otherwise it would give him something to talk about.

He decided to go in and see how much damage had been done that day, something he hadn't noticed at the time. He stepped inside; the corn was dense and difficult to walk on. After a few steps, he remembered it would stick to him and considered turning back, but then thought that since it was already stuck, it wouldn't come off easily and he was worried about cleaning it later, so he bent down and proceeded cautiously.

Suddenly, he heard a sound. Listening carefully, he realized there was indeed a sound, and it was an uncontrollable groaning. Who was causing trouble here? Was it Yang Lianfang with someone else, or someone else?

He walked even more cautiously inside, the sound becoming clearer and clearer, his heart pounding. This was going to be interesting. Holding his breath, he took a few more steps, lowering his head even further, but he still couldn't see anything because he wasn't looking along the rows; the dense corn completely obscured the view.

They were almost at the cornfield when they finally caught a glimpse of it, but because it was hidden in the corn pile, they couldn't see who it was. The man was wearing a shirt, and the shirt looked like Liu Ming's.

The man was pressing down on the woman, moving up and down. The woman occasionally made a sound, a sound that sounded like Zhen Guoxiang. Father-in-law and daughter-in-law, incest, so that's how it is!

Haotian was a little skeptical, so he squatted there patiently, wanting to see more clearly. The man paused, looked around, and didn't see him.

But he saw clearly, it was Liu Ming. Was he really burning his wife? He couldn't see the woman clearly, only heard the sound, but women's moans weren't so easy to distinguish. Without seeing the person, he couldn't draw a conclusion. What should he do? Quickly sneak away, or continue watching?

Finally, he decided to watch. Such a good show was too rare to see. He saw Liu Ming kneel up, and the woman, also wearing a shirt, sat up. It was Zhen Guoxiang, it really was a father-in-law burning his daughter-in-law.

"Hurry up and leave. If we get caught soon, it'll be troublesome," Haotian thought, as he watched Liu Ming begin thrusting into Zhen Guoxiang from behind.

He didn't want to leave; he wanted to watch intently. Haotian stared at his wife's passionate encounter in the wild, wondering if these two, old and young, had been having an affair for a while, or if it started after he was caught yesterday.

Their coordination was so perfect; it didn't seem like their first time, but it was hard to say. They were both experienced; once they were in sync, how could they not be in sync? If they weren't in sync, they wouldn't be in sync. "

I should leave," Haotian thought, seeing Liu Ming speeding up. He knew he was about to ejaculate; if he waited any longer, he would be discovered. So he slowly turned back the way he came.

At the irrigation ditch, Haotian walked, brushing the corn fuzz off his clothes. He had inadvertently seen Zhen Guoxiang and his husband having sex. If it were before, he would have definitely found Zhen Guoxiang and confronted her, then taken advantage of her. But now he was calm.

Although I had no intention of looking for Zhen Guoxiang, the image of my father-in-law and daughter-in-law having sex in the field kept swirling in my mind.

That's awful, Zhen Guoxiang! Even if a man is no good and her pussy is itchy, she can't let her father-in-law fuck her! It seems "Mosquito's" attention has shifted to Yingying, and he's no longer after her.

Suddenly, it occurred to me that Zhen Guoxiang was so careless, and her pussy was so tight; she probably hadn't been with anyone before. Her father-in-law was probably caught and, without a word, forced into a corner.

Sigh! Well, if Liu Ming hadn't caught her, she would have continued her arrogance. No secrets stay hidden forever. If she continued fooling around with women for too long, Fan Xia would find out and be even angrier.

Burning the daughter-in-law, the father-in-law burning the daughter-in-law—it really happened! In the old Errentai opera, there was a story called "The Father-in-Law Burns the Daughter-in-Law," a real story. I'd read many novels like that online, thinking they were just made up, but today I witnessed it with my own eyes.

No wonder some people say, "Once the penis is smeared with skin, no one recognizes anyone else." In this world, men and women sometimes disregard even their relationships because of that thing between their legs.

"Xiaxia, Xiaxia, I love you, like a mouse loves rice!" Haotian thought of Liu Ming burning his wife and realized that loving his neighbor's aunt was nothing shameful.

"You should get a divorce quickly. If you divorce and marry me, I can be with you openly, sleep with you, kiss you, play with you to my heart's content, and fuck you until you're happy every day."

Haotian got carried away again thinking about this.

"A leopard can't change its spots." He suddenly realized that even if he married Fan Xia, he couldn't be willful and reckless. He had to remember Fan Xia's warning and not forget it in his excitement.

He had to learn from the lesson, otherwise he would upset his beloved. He needed to stay calm and observe her carefully. What she said was true, and he really couldn't ignore it. Love is love, but he couldn't learn bad habits! If he only learned bad habits, love would also disappear!

"Haha, haha, ahaha!"

Haotian thought of Liu Ming and Zhen Guoxiang, and of himself and Fan Xia. For some reason, he couldn't help but sneer.

102:

A Sudden Enlightenment Haotian returned to Fan Xia's house and found her still cold towards him, not even asking him a question. He felt a little uncomfortable.

He had originally planned to tell her about the strange thing he had seen Liu Ming and Zhen Guoxiang having sex in the wild, but since Fan Xia was still unhappy, he went back to his room.

Sitting alone on the sofa, he thought he should go over and tell her anyway, and see what she would do.

When he went over, Fan Xia glanced at him again, still not speaking to him, but her eyes held a hint of smugness.

"You're still angry with me, throwing a tantrum like a child?"

Haotian said to Fan Xia with a smile.

"Who's angry with you? You're so ashamed that you're keeping your face so tight, not even talking about what you did in front of others."

Fan Xia's tone changed, and Haotian's heart suddenly relaxed.

"I thought you would never give me a good face again in this life, and I was thinking of crawling into a hole in the ground."

Haotian teased Fan Xia.

"Drill, drill now! Let's see how you do it!"

Fan Xia stopped what she was doing and looked at Hao Tian, deliberately speaking in a stern tone.

Hao Tian immediately knelt down, buried his head in the ground, and pushed hard twice. Then he quickly crawled to Fan Xia's side and placed his head between her thighs.

Fan Xia almost burst out laughing at Hao Tian's mischievous and comical appearance, but she tried her best to hold it in. She slapped him hard on the back, then took a step back and said, "You're really infuriating!"

Hao Tian looked at Fan Xia and pleaded, "Can't you give me a chance to change?"

"Don't just talk the talk, don't pretend. Be real, let the facts speak for themselves. I've had enough of that!"

Fan Xia became serious again.

Haotian stood up and said seriously, "I understand!"

"Understanding isn't enough. You need to have teeth in your belly and control yourself,"

Fanxia said sternly, seeing that this tactic was working. "I'm not listening to your sweet words anymore. I'm looking for your actions."

Haotian didn't say anything more. Seeing Fanxia start cooking again, he stared at her cute appearance with a dazed look, thinking, "If I do anything to betray you again, I'll become a monk on Mount Wutai!"

"Wife, I have a strange story to tell you. You'll definitely be surprised!"

Haotian said mysteriously.

"Who's your wife? With you, today with this one, tomorrow with that one, who would want to be your wife? If they don't want to be your wife, they'll think you're too young. If they were your wife, you'd drive them crazy."

Fanxia showed no sign of forgiveness.

"Then I'll call you auntie. Auntie, I just saw Liu Ming and Zhen Guoxiang taking pictures together in the cornfield."

Haotian blurted out impatiently.

"So what if you love someone else? You tell me, don't interfere with other people's lives, okay? You don't tell them to do it, but you want to, don't you?"

Haotian hadn't expected Fan Xia to say such a thing.

"No, I said I won't mess around with other women anymore, I only love you!"

Haotian solemnly declared to Fan Xia again.

"I'm tired of hearing that. You said you saw Liu Ming and Zhen Guoxiang, how did you see them? You're only seeing them because you're still hung up on Zhen Guoxiang and chasing after her. If you weren't chasing her, how could you have seen them? Tell me, isn't that right?"

Fan Xia questioned Haotian.

Haotian was a little dumbfounded. How did he end up in her trap? It seems he had to be careful what he said to his wife.

Seeing Haotian's stunned expression, Fan Xia pressed her advantage: "I guessed right, didn't I? You're weak, you can't make up an excuse right now, can you?"

"No, I bumped into them by accident."

Haotian was different today; because of lingering fear, he seemed very passive, answering like a child being scolded by his mother.

“I don’t want to hear you. You’re like the boy in the ‘Boy Who Cried Wolf’ story. Even if it were true, I wouldn’t believe you. Let me tell you, I absolutely won’t believe you without a period of testing,”

Fan Xia said firmly.

Less talk, more action, and careful observation—Hao Tian suddenly understood. It seemed that a period of time was necessary. Only then did Hao Tian realize his subconscious belief that Fan Xia loved him deeply and that making mistakes was acceptable.

“Yang Lianfang asked me to write some materials, saying you mentioned it,”

Hao Tian changed the subject and asked Fan Xia.

“What? Did she already tell you? Did you agree?”

Fan Xia’s tone was accusatory again.

Haotian pondered how to say this. Would telling the truth arouse suspicion? After a moment's thought, he said, "She mentioned it to me, but I haven't agreed yet. I'm just asking if you need to agree." "

It seems your habit of lying is hard to break. I stood at the gate for a while just now, observing how the workers were demolishing the old courtyard. Yang Lianfang rushed over to ask if you were there. I asked why she wanted to see you, and she said she told you to write some materials and wanted to see if you'd started writing, to see if you had any questions. You already agreed, but you lied and said you hadn't, and you needed to ask me."

Fan Xia fired off a barrage of words at Haotian.

Haotian thought, "It seems 'if you don't want people to know, don't do it in the first place.'" So he decided to tell her everything that had happened in the past two days. If he didn't say anything now, it would be even more troublesome if people found out later and wouldn't let it go.

"I'll give a thorough self-criticism today, otherwise, it won't feel good to keep it to myself!"

"There's no need for further self-criticism," Haotian said sincerely.

"You already did last time. I don't want to know about the shameful things you've done. Knowing only makes you more confused and uneasy."

Fanxia said bluntly. Haotian

was speechless and remained silent. Suddenly, he felt a surge of anger and wanted to lash out, but he knew that today was not the right day for Fanxia to lose her temper. If he messed things up because of it, it would be even harder to handle. So he suppressed his anger and sat down on the sofa.

Fanxia noticed that Haotian was a little angry, so she stopped scolding him. She put the chopsticks on the table, then ladled out a large bowl of braised noodles. After placing it on the table, she didn't urge him to eat as usual. Haotian was a little hungry and sat down at the table to eat without waiting for Fanxia to urge him again.

Fanxia served herself a small bowl and sat opposite him to eat as well. Neither of them spoke. Haotian occasionally glanced at Fanxia, but she kept her head down, ignoring him and focusing on her food.

Haotian had never seen this side of Fan Xia before. She had always been so attentive and generous, caring for him deeply and warming his heart. He never expected her to be so cold. However, he didn't find this side of Fan Xia bad; he thought women should be more accommodating, and he also wished she had this side to withstand men's advances.

Fan Xia had already been in a bad mood these past few days because of people's cold stares, and Haotian being caught cheating was like adding insult to injury. She was filled with inner conflict. She was a very proud person, most afraid of being looked down upon; yet she was also someone who dared to pursue happiness, with a burning flame within her. How could she feel good having that flame extinguished?

What should she do? This wasn't something she could decide immediately, because her feelings for Haotian were already very deep, and being with him filled her with vitality—an inescapable fact. However, if they got married and formed a family, would their happiness continue? This was also a question she had to consider.

Therefore, she couldn't make a decisive decision for the time being. Even if Haotian hadn't been caught cheating, she was already prepared to cool off her relationship with him. But under these circumstances, Haotian was actually fooling around with Zhen Guoxiang, how could she not be annoyed and frustrated?

The purpose of cooling off with Haotian was naturally to continue observing him, to see if he was reliable and if she could commit to him for life. If the foundation of their relationship wasn't strong, Haotian's actions would inevitably prompt her to make a clean break.

But she couldn't do it. Although she told him she would "cut ties completely," she still hoped for a long-term relationship with him. However, his behavior was too heartbreaking for her. She now hoped that through her stern warning, he would repent. Therefore, she didn't respond to Haotian's playfulness and humor with a smile as before, forgetting past grievances.

Although Fan Xia was unhappy in her marriage, from the perspective of daily life, she had always been living a peaceful and dignified life, and in other people's eyes, she lived a very natural and respectable life. No one knew that what made Fan Xia feel that life was so beautiful was Haotian's secret love.

She believed her love for Haotian was pure and sincere, and she had never regretted it. She trusted Haotian completely, and even his occasional misconduct didn't bother her deep down. That's why she didn't get angry when Haotian confessed to his past infidelities.

But this time, she realized that indulgence was not an option, because if she tolerated it, he would become increasingly demanding, and the consequences would be unimaginable. Therefore, she decided to take this opportunity to thoroughly cure his "illness." If it could be cured, she would risk everything and marry him; if not, she would have to painfully let him go.

"Since you promised him, you should write the materials properly. When you do something, either don't do it at all, or do it well; when you speak, either don't say it, or keep your word,"

Fan Xia said, putting down her bowl of braised noodles.

“Hmm,”

Haotian replied, “You should know a lot about her situation, right? Could you tell me about it?”

“Of course I do, but you should ask her directly first. Once you’ve written down what you’ve written, I’ll listen to what you’ve written and then add to it,”

Fan Xia said. She wasn’t in the mood to tell Haotian about Yang Lianfang right now.

“Okay, do you have her phone number? Tell me, I’ll contact her and see when she can come,”

Haotian said.

After giving Haotian her phone number, Fan Xia immediately called Yang Lianfang, telling her to contact Haotian when she had time, or that Haotian would contact her. She also asked Yang Lianfang to prepare her story beforehand so that she could explain it comprehensively and in detail when she met Haotian, repeatedly emphasizing that Haotian must write the materials carefully. Haotian

silently reminded himself that whether Yang Lianfang came here or he went to Yang Lianfang’s place, he had to remain steadfast and not waver. Looking at Fan Xia’s very serious expression, he resolved to show her through his actions that he loved her most, listened to her most, and would never do anything to betray her again.

Haotian wondered why she showed no interest in Liu Ming and Zhen Guoxiang's father-in-law burning his daughter-in-law's body, and also didn't want to inquire about his affairs with other women. Right, she was a practical person; the past was the past, and as long as he kept his word, she wouldn't hold it against him. But this time, her attitude was clear: she wouldn't allow him to fool around with other women again. If he made that mistake again, she would probably sever all ties with him.

103: Entangled

103: Entangled After dinner, Haotian was about to go to sleep when he received a call from Yang Lianfang. Yang Lianfang asked when he would be free to come to her house. Haotian said he would come after his afternoon nap.

When Haotian woke up, he greeted Fan Xia, but Fan Xia didn't say anything to reassure him.

Yang Lianfang's two children were gone. Although Haotian found Yang Lianfang indeed very sexy, he felt no attraction to her.

He placed the paper and pens on the children's writing desk and said to Yang Lianfang, "This writing desk is a bit flimsy; we should get a better one."

Yang Lianfang immediately replied, "I've been saying I'd buy one for a while, but I haven't."

"There's a delivery service; I'll buy one for them,"

Haotian said casually.

"No need, I'll have someone buy it for me. If you buy it for us, people will start to suspect us,"

Yang Lianfang said, handing Haotian a glass of water.

A fragrant aroma wafted over Haotian, but he didn't move. He was thinking of Fan Xia, trying to keep his promise.

"Have you started writing yet?"

Yang Lianfang handed Haotian the water, still standing beside him without moving, her voice trembling slightly.

"I'm still thinking; I haven't started writing yet,"

Haotian sensed Yang Lianfang's worries. If it were yesterday, he would have hugged her tightly.

"I don't want to be nominated for that 'Five-Good Family' award anymore, so don't write it,"

Yang Lianfang's voice was still trembling.

Haotian noticed that Yang Lianfang was dressed very lightly today. Her round-neck white short-sleeved shirt clearly revealed her cleavage, and her tight pants created a noticeable slit between her legs, as if she weren't even wearing underwear. She remained impassive.

"How can we not be evaluated? This is an honor; not just anyone can get it,"

Haotian said, standing up and glancing outside.

"How about we go to the south room?"

Yang Lianfang asked, her eyes filled with desire, thinking Haotian was afraid of being seen.

"No, the lighting there is bad; I can't see clearly when I write,"

Haotian changed the subject, acting as if nothing had ever happened between him and Yang Lianfang, showing no sign of desire.

Yang Lianfang's initial enthusiasm cooled down at Haotian's words.

"My family doesn't meet the criteria for a 'five-good family,' I think I shouldn't apply,"

Yang Lianfang said thoughtfully, leaning against the edge of the kang (heated brick bed), resting her hand on her face and gazing out the window.

"You don't meet the criteria? Perhaps Liu Huahua and Hu Lian do?"

Haotian asked after taking a sip of water.

"My family is about the same as theirs. Before, it was alright, but now it's definitely not a 'five-good family.'" Yang

Lianfang's words had a hidden meaning, but she held it back.

"Then you should talk to my aunt and see what she says,"

Haotian said, sensing the ulterior motive in Yang Lianfang's words.

"Your aunt? You still call her aunt? When are you getting married? You're not even married yet, and she's already controlling you so much. Did you tell her about us?"

Yang Lianfang felt Haotian's change in attitude was related to Fan Xia.

"I didn't!"

Haotian said truthfully.

"Then how did you suddenly become like this? Let me tell you, I've seen it for who it is now. People these days always say one thing and think another. Fan Xia is the director of the Women's Federation, and she's always giving advice and teaching others about family harmony. But she herself isn't harmonious. She's just pretending to be a good person, how can that be convincing?"

Yang Lianfang seemed like a completely different person today; her "ladylike" image had vanished entirely.

"I made a mistake and want to correct it, is that wrong?"

Haotian said clearly.

Yang Lianfang didn't answer Haotian's question, but instead said, "Zhao Yun and she have been together for so many years, but since you came back, she hasn't been with anyone else. Chang Hongyun doesn't dare go home anymore and goes to Lanlan's house every day. She's a typical vixen. Before, people thought her marriage was unreliable, that she was just trying to impress others, but now that she wants to marry you, people don't see her that way anymore.

"She's good to you and wants to marry you, isn't that obvious? You're rich and handsome." "She's already taken all the good things in the world; now she wants to take all the good things in the world."

"How can you say that about the Women's Federation director? She hasn't done anything wrong! Even if people say she wants to marry me, you can't say that!"

Haotian defended Fan Xia.

"They're really in cahoots! Did she drug you last night?"

Yang Lianfang's tone grew increasingly aggressive.

Haotian thought women were monsters; yesterday she was so timid, how come she's suddenly so shameless?

"I'm a bastard, women should stay away from me, otherwise they'll definitely suffer!"

Haotian tried to use these words to distance himself from Yang Lianfang.

But Yang Lianfang said, "If you weren't a bastard, women wouldn't love you! What harm could you possibly suffer? If you could suffer, would Fan Xia still be willing to marry you?"

"Can't we talk about something serious?"

Haotian desperately wanted to reverse the awkward situation. "

What do you mean by 'proper'? Fan Xia is always right, but I'm wrong to say anything?"

Yang Lianfang's tone was full of resentment.

"How could the Women's Federation director possibly respect me? I'm a good-for-nothing, a good-for-nothing!"

Haotian tried his best to make himself sound completely incompetent.

"Hmph, good-for-nothing, good-for-nothing, you really know how to belittle yourself, to mock yourself. Let me tell you straight, every woman wants you to sleep with her, even if it kills her."

Yang Lianfang used the most explicit words to provoke Haotian; she knew that men needed to be provoked for women to be satisfied.

But these words only annoyed Haotian. He said to Yang Lianfang without any politeness, "Let me tell you straight, I've been confused these past few days, I regret it!"

"You're a fool who'd sleep with an old sow, and you regret it!" "Stop

trying to fool me. Fan Xia may be pretty and look young, but it's not worth it for you to be so devoted to her. Tell me, is it because she doesn't want you to mess around with other women?" Yang Lianfang continued to press.

"How can she control me if I mess around with other women? It's because I don't want to anymore!"

Haotian said firmly.

"Go ahead and marry her! You'll regret it the moment you get married, remember my words."

Yang Lianfang said angrily, completely venting her anger on Fan Xia, wondering where this woman got such power. But she was still a little unwilling.

Haotian was speechless, thinking that this woman, who was seen as a "lady," was actually so ruthless.

Seeing that Haotian was still unmoved, Yang Lianfang thought that his eagerness from yesterday had disappeared. She wanted to pounce on him, but then thought she should be more patient and try to provoke him a little more.

"Are you two getting married soon?" "

Yang Lianfang pressed.

"It doesn't matter to me if this gets out, but it's a big deal for my aunt. I'm asking you, have you heard her say she wants to marry me?"

Haotian countered with a question to Yang Lianfang.

"Who would dare ask about something like this? Do you think this is something to be proud of?"

Yang Lianfang's words were always laced with sarcasm.

"Since you don't dare ask, how can you be so sure she'll marry me?"

Haotian really wanted to get some information about Fan Xia's marriage to him from others.

"Everyone in the same village knows each other's background. Do you even need to ask? Anyone can guess pretty accurately. Fan Xia is the most capable woman in Guyang Village. When has she ever wanted to be one step ahead of everyone else? She wants to monopolize you, doesn't she? Don't avoid me. I'm asking you, when are you getting married? Don't always hide it from me, saying it's just what you think, that she hasn't said anything. If the mother dog doesn't wag her tail, how can the puppies dare to climb on her? Can you tell me the truth?" "

Yang Lianfang coaxed Haotian.

Haotian wasn't embarrassed at all by Yang Lianfang's directness. She looked at Yang Lianfang and said, "In our situation, do you think it's possible?"

"Now I'm asking you, and you haven't even answered yet, but you're asking me instead!"

Yang Lianfang's words were sharp.

"You brought up the topic, so it's not unreasonable for me to ask you!"

Haotian said as if he was about to argue with Yang Lianfang.

"I didn't say you had, did I? Are you right not to answer me?"

Yang Lianfang wouldn't back down.

"Then let me tell you, Director Fan doesn't agree. When she heard that, she also had a problem with me. I'm like Pigsy looking in the mirror—not a human being."

Haotian replied somewhat aggrievedly.

"Are you lying to me? Don't treat me like a fool!"

Yang Lianfang didn't believe him at all.

"How am I treating you like a fool? You're the most reasonable woman in the whole village, do you think I don't know that?"

Under Yang Lianfang's attack, Haotian tried to change the subject as quickly as possible. "

I'm reasonable, am I a model family housewife? Your aunt is really smart. She hasn't evaluated my family for so many years, but she started evaluating my family as soon as you came back. I completely understand what's going on!"

Yang Lianfang was still targeting Fan Xia, which was something Haotian didn't want to hear.

"What you've been saying today is making me more and more confused,"

Haotian had been wanting to leave, but Yang Lianfang's words made it impossible for him to go.

"You're pretending to be confused, you know better than anyone else!"

Yang Lianfang said angrily.

This woman is simply crazy, and now the more you talk to her, the less you can understand her, Haotian thought to himself, and said, "I'm leaving. I came here today to help you write some materials, who would have thought you would talk like this?"

Haotian said, standing up to leave.

"You can't leave, you have to explain yourself. If you really marry Fan Xia, I won't say anything more. If you don't marry her, you have to give me a reason. Why were you like that last night, but like this today?"

Yang Lianfang stopped Haotian, not letting him leave.

"Yesterday, and that other day, it was all my fault. I made mistakes, and I'm correcting them, isn't that right?"

Haotian said clearly.

"Who said you made mistakes? I'm the one who made mistakes, not you. I didn't tell you to correct your mistakes!"

Yang Lianfang said, throwing herself into Haotian's arms.

Haotian quickly pushed her away, saying, "No, it's my mistake, I can't do it again."

"Let me tell you, you've already stolen my heart. If you just leave like this, I won't let you off the hook,"

Yang Lianfang threatened Haotian.

Looking at Yang Lianfang's angry face, Haotian felt a little afraid of this woman, but he was clear-headed. If he gave in to this woman's demands, there would be more and more trouble in the future, so he resolutely insisted on leaving.

Yang Lianfang chased after him, grabbing Haotian's shirt tightly to prevent him from leaving. Haotian, afraid of tearing his shirt, stopped.

Yang Lianfang still held onto his shirt without saying a word. Haotian tried to leave again, but Yang Lianfang held on tightly. Just then, Fan Xia came in. "Hey! You two are pulling and tugging at each other without saying a word, what are you doing?"

104: Unresolved Secrets

104: Unresolved Secrets Hearing Fan Xia's words, Yang Lianfang finally released Haotian.

Haotian was embarrassed, but Yang Lianfang acted as if nothing was wrong, saying to Fanxia, "Why are you here?"

She then opened the door to welcome Fanxia back into the house.

Fanxia felt something was amiss and wanted to go inside to find out what was going on. Haotian was also afraid that if he left, Fanxia would hear Yang Lianfang's side of the story

and cause trouble. After Fanxia and Haotian entered the house, Yang Lianfang directly asked Fanxia, "Did you say you were going to marry Haotian? It's been all over the village these past few days. When I asked Haotian, he said he didn't know, and he even blamed me, sounding like I was the one who said it. How could I not be angry? When he saw I was angry, he turned and left, so I went out to stop him, and that's when you arrived. What are you doing here? Are you afraid I'll seduce Haotian?"

Fanxia was somewhat bewildered by Yang Lianfang's question; his guess was spot on. She also felt that Yang Lianfang was quite shameless, completely different from usual, and couldn't say anything for a moment. She just looked at Haotian, indicating that she wanted him to speak.

Haotian, fearing Yang Lianfang would be embarrassed, didn't reveal the reason for her persistent questioning. Instead, he went along with Yang Lianfang's words, saying, "We were chatting quite well at first, but just as I was about to leave, she suddenly asked about my marriage to you. I was a little unhappy and argued with her because she still wanted to know if I had any plans to marry you. I didn't know how to answer her, so I quickly left, but she chased after me and wouldn't let me go."

After hearing Haotian's words, Fanxia asked Yang Lianfang, "Why did you have to ask such a question? People talk so casually these days, how can you believe everything you hear? I've even heard people say that Changsheng raised a daughter, did I believe that too? I guess I'm just a lousy person with a big reputation. If that's the case, then even if I didn't have that intention, I would have. Does that mean it's more suitable for me to marry Haotian?"

Haotian was very surprised by Fanxia's answer. She was both courageous and wise; her words were so cleverly worded that they could be interpreted in any way.

“You know best whether it’s suitable or not. You’re beautiful, young, and eloquent. Who can say it’s not suitable for a handsome, rich, and young man!”

Yang Lianfang said, pouting.

“Then I’ll listen to you. Does Haotian have any objections?”

Fan Xia asked Haotian in front of Yang Lianfang.

“I’ve wanted to marry you for a long time, but you’ve always been unwilling. What objections do I have?”

Haotian blurted out.

“You wanted to find me? Did you tell me? Did you tell others outside? Otherwise, how could this talk have gotten out?”

Fan Xia questioned Haotian.

Upon hearing Fan Xia’s words, Haotian felt he should take responsibility, so he said, “I only thought about it in my heart. I didn’t ask you, and I didn’t tell anyone else. If I told anyone, I wouldn’t be human!”

“But your sister Yang just said that you’re a good match for me, so I’ll find you. I’ll ask your sister Yang to be our matchmaker! Chang Hongyun and I are already husband and wife in name only. He’s never home and doesn’t treat me like his wife anymore. He’s practically a widow. As long as I agree to a divorce, it’ll be done in a heartbeat.”

Fan Xia played along.

Yang Lianfang was filled with regret after hearing Fan Xia's words. She was always tight-lipped, but today she had only uttered a single overheard sentence, and now she was burdened with this responsibility. She didn't know how to respond.

Seeing Yang Lianfang remain silent, Fan Xia seized the opportunity to say, "I'm not trying to make things difficult for you. I just want to tell you that after hearing something, you should think it over carefully. Don't just jump to conclusions."

Hearing this, Yang Lianfang felt relieved. But she then questioned Fan Xia, "You know Wang Changsheng has raised a daughter, so why hasn't he removed our 'Five-Good Family' designation?"

"The 'Five-Good Family' award is given by the village women's federation. Liu Chunmei submitted the list a long time ago, but she didn't provide the supporting materials. The township women's federation makes the final decision based on the materials submitted by the village women's federation. She's only busy with her business and doesn't really oversee the village women's federation's work. I asked Haotian to write the materials for you because of our personal relationship; otherwise, I could have just urged Liu Chunmei,"

Fan Xia replied.

Fan Xia noticed that Yang Lianfang was completely different today, knowing it was because she was upset about her husband supporting another woman. Concerned, she asked, "When did you find out about Wang Changsheng supporting another woman? I only heard about it a few days ago. At first, I didn't believe it; I thought Changsheng wasn't that kind of person. You two were such a good couple, I always envied you for finding such a good husband, how could things change so suddenly?" "

I only heard it from Liu Ming this afternoon. At first, I didn't believe him either, but he told me so convincingly that I had to believe him. If he's saying it, there must be some truth to it. Why didn't anyone say anything before? Didn't he do it himself? I've been suspecting he has someone else. He's been coming home much less often this year than in previous years, and the intervals between visits are longer. This time, the intervals are even longer!"

Yang Lianfang's tone became bitter.

"Don't take this too seriously. These kinds of things happen all the time. As long as he still loves you, you need to handle it calmly. Have you asked him? You should ask him directly and see what he says. Don't do anything rash. I saw you acting strangely today; you seem quite emotionally affected,"

Fan Xia advised Yang Lianfang.

Fan Xia's words quickly brought Yang Lianfang to her senses.

Yang Lianfang had just finished lunch, and her two children had just left when Liu Ming came to her house and started talking about Wang Changsheng raising a daughter. Afterward, he shamelessly groped her.

If it weren't for her relationship with Haotian, she would have submitted to Liu Ming out of revenge. Liu Ming lived next door; he was a lecherous man who had long harbored desires. He was looking for a way to make money, and this incident suited his desires perfectly.

She rejected Liu Ming's advances. After he left, she eagerly called Haotian, wanting him to come over. She assumed Haotian would be as passionate and unrestrained as yesterday, but to her surprise, he arrived looking like a perfect gentleman. She tried everything to provoke him, but he remained unmoved. So she took her anger out on Fan Xia; the more Haotian defended Fan Xia, the angrier she became.

After listening to Fan Xia's advice, Yang Lianfang had to admit that Fan Xia was indeed more astute than others. She suddenly blamed herself for not thinking to ask Changsheng first, to see what he had to say.

"I'm always at home, I don't understand anything, and when things happen, I just get angry and don't know what to do! You've given me a wake-up call,"

Yang Lianfang's tone softened.

"Regarding the 'Five Good Families' award, I suggest you don't give up on it yourself. Have Haotian write the application and submit it. Whether you get the award or not is none of your business. If you give up, it means you're guilty. Don't you think so?"

Fan Xia continued to persuade her.

"Well, I'll contact Haotian again when I'm in a better mood!"

Yang Lianfang replied to Fan Xia, realizing it was unreasonable to have vented her anger on Fan Xia earlier.

Seeing that she had persuaded Yang Lianfang, Fan Xia called Haotian back.

Yang Lianfang sat on the edge of the kang (heated brick bed), gazing out the window. Thinking about how she had ended up in this situation, a pang of sadness welled up in her eyes, and tears streamed down her face.

She thought that if he occasionally had a relationship with another woman, she could understand, but supporting her was a different story. He was supporting an eldest daughter, and that daughter was only doing it for money. Earning money was so difficult; the family depended on him for their livelihood. Supporting his eldest daughter was incredibly expensive.

She called Wang Changsheng, intending to ask him what was going on. If there were any signs of trouble, she would test him with the threat of divorce—a common tactic used in the village to intimidate men.

But after several calls, Wang Changsheng didn't answer. Suddenly, she realized he was probably busy at the construction site and hadn't heard her. She decided not to call him again and wait for him to call back.

Suddenly, she recalled making love with Haotian. He was so young and comfortable! Thinking about this, she felt it would be truly worthwhile if Fan Xia and Haotian got married. She regretted not seizing the opportunity last night and not letting him have his fill.

If she had known Wang Changsheng was supporting another woman, she wouldn't have hesitated so much yesterday, wanting to do it but unable to let go. She blamed herself for being so foolish.

She remembered Haotian's eagerness last night, his erection, and suddenly felt that it was good that Wang Changsheng was supporting a young woman; this became her reason for being with Haotian.

She recalled Haotian's behavior just now; it didn't seem like he had no interest in her, but rather he was pretending, afraid of being discovered in broad daylight. She thought of finding an opportunity to invite him to the south room at night; he would definitely agree. Thinking of this, she suddenly felt energized and told herself that when Wang Changsheng called back, she shouldn't mention his supporting someone.

After Haotian and Fan Xia left, to avoid being seen, he decided to go to the village committee. On his way to the village committee, he secretly rejoiced that he hadn't wavered in the face of Yang Lianfang's persistent advances today. Actually, several times he really wanted to pounce on her, kiss her, hug her, and touch her.

He thought that if Fan Xia found out today, marrying her would be a huge problem. At the same time, he thought about how he needed to be intimate with her tonight.

Feeling a surge of joy, he decided he didn't want to go to the village committee anymore, so he turned and walked out of the village, wanting to sort out his thoughts alone. But just as he left the village, he ran into Liu Ming and Zhen Guoxiang.

He wanted to avoid them, but couldn't find the words.

"Going out to the fields?"

Liu Ming asked him with a sly grin. While Liu Ming was asking him, Zhen Guoxiang walked away as if she hadn't seen him.

"Yeah,"

Haotian replied, looking at Liu Ming's pointed nose.

"I didn't tell anyone, aren't you going to thank me?"

Liu Ming's eyes gleamed with predatory intent.

"Of course I thank you,"

Haotian said, knowing Liu Ming's weakness after witnessing his affair with his wife that day, so he wasn't afraid.

"How can you thank me? Just a few words are enough? I was just looking for you, and I happened to run into you. Ten thousand, I won't ask for more!"

Liu Ming's tone was very gentle.

"Actually, you should also thank me. I saw you and your daughter-in-law doing something like that in the cornfield that day. I took pictures and saved them on my computer. If you don't pressure me, I'll keep it a secret. If you pressure me, I'll have to show it to others!"

Haotian hadn't actually taken any pictures, but he didn't mention them, fearing Liu Ming wouldn't admit it.

This was something Liu Ming hadn't expected. Upon hearing that he had taken pictures, he immediately lost his confidence.

"This kid, you've got guts. You dare to mess around with five women all by yourself. Well done. Since you saw it, we'll call it even. I don't want your money, but let me tell you, if you spread this around, I'll smash your head in."

Liu Ming said sullenly. 03-12
105: Hearty and Relaxed

105: Hearty and Relaxed "As long as you don't tell anyone, I definitely won't. But you have to keep an eye on your wife; she's prone to giving herself away!"

Haotian said, then slowly walked west along the path.

After walking a while, he turned back to look at Liu Ming, who was carrying a hoe and slinking away towards the village.

The fields around the village were mostly cornfields. In recent years, people had stopped planting wheat and oats, and sunflowers were less common. It was said that nothing was as profitable as planting corn. He remembered that when he was around ten years old, almost everything around the village was planted with wheat, with a few families also growing oats.

Thinking of wheat naturally reminded him of the nearby well, which was now hidden by corn. So he walked north along the small ditch at the edge of the cornfield. Once he left the cornfield, he saw the well.

The well had completely changed; the mound of earth used to be very high, but now it was much lower. He went over to check and found that there was no water left, just a small pit like the bottom of a pot. Some elm and poplar trees grew in the pit, some tall and some short. He thought to himself, "This place is quite a good spot for an affair."

He considered going down to see if anyone was having sex there, but then thought seeing it would be troublesome, so he glanced at it one last time and quickly left.

He walked along the path beside the well from the north of the village. A large area north of the village was alkaline wasteland, unsuitable for farming. Standing on the wasteland, he could clearly see the milk station in the northeast of the village.

That was Chen Bo's milk station. That guy Chen Bo married such a good wife, yet he kept a young woman from marrying.

Money makes you want to play with women, money allows you to play with women—many people are like that. The more you play with women, the more you want to play with them; playing with women is really great.

Although Haotian planned to be intimate with Fan Xia tonight, and felt that Fan Xia would definitely satisfy his desires, he still thought of Yang Lianfang.

He thought about how Yang Lianfang's feelings of wanting to be intimate with him yet feeling guilty had completely changed because her husband had cheated on her; today, she had actually taken the initiative to seduce him. Yang Lianfang was a very proactive woman; she had been quite wild with him the other day. Compared to Fan Xia, she certainly had a different kind of charm.

His subconscious desire to get closer to Yang Lianfang suddenly resurfaced, but he absolutely couldn't do it recently. However, he should let her know that he still cared about her, but he couldn't let his guard down in broad daylight. So he took out his phone and dialed Yang Lianfang's number.

"Hello! Are you home?"

"You still dare to call me?"

"I'm sorry, we'll have a chance. What do you say?"

"Your man has changed so much, I don't trust you anymore. You have a beautiful woman, that's enough, don't bother me."

"I couldn't help worrying today, didn't you notice?"

"I'll call you after I've made arrangements, don't try to fool me!"

"How about we wait until the village opera is over? I need to start hauling stones and bricks for the house tomorrow, then we'll lay the foundation, I won't have time for that. You can enjoy the opera for a few days, then we'll find some time, okay?"

"It's not up to me, I prepared everything perfectly today, but you didn't even look at what I've arranged in the south room, it's really disheartening."

"Actually, we did the right thing today, we absolutely can't let my aunt know what we're doing. If she finds out, she'll tell my parents, cut off my source of income, and I won't be able to stay in the village anymore."

"Okay, I understand, good sister, another call, hanging up!"

After talking to Yang Lianfang on the phone, Haotian felt that people's nature is hard to change, and he also found having an affair quite interesting. When he walked behind Fan Xia's house, he suddenly worried again, wondering if she would still be so cold when he went back. He wondered if he would get what he wanted that night. He

went straight into the main room and saw Xianmei talking to Fanxia. Haotian's heart skipped a beat, but Xianmei greeted him with a smile, and Fanxia's face lit up instantly.

"Xianmei wanted you to take her to the county town. She was just about to call when you came back,"

Fanxia said, her bright eyes sparkling.

"What are you doing so late?"

Haotian asked Xianmei excitedly.

"I've got some work in mind. A classmate of mine from high school has the father of the director of the forestry bureau. I talked to him about it, and although I wasn't really sure of success, things have suddenly become clearer. He called me today to tell me, and my dad asked me to go to my classmate's house with some gifts and find out more details,"

Xianmei told Haotian excitedly.

"Take Xianmei to the county town and buy her some cigarettes, alcohol, milk, fruit, and the like. I doubt her classmate will let her come back today. Once you've taken her home, don't accept any food from her,"

Fan Xia said, as if settling a child.

"Okay, let's go now!"

Haotian felt a surge of relief, like his heart had been ironed, as he looked at Fan Xia's smiling face.

Haotian started the car, picked up Xianmei, and in less than 20 minutes they arrived at a high-end liquor store in the county town. He bought two packs of Dongchunxiacao liquor and two bottles of expensive Wuliangye liquor, spending several thousand yuan.

Xianmei only had 1000 yuan on her, and didn't dare take it out, only saying to Haotian, "You pay first, I'll pay you back when we get back!"

Haotian teased Xianmei, "Remember this, if you don't pay me back within three days, you'll have to pay double!" Xianmei

smiled brightly but didn't say anything. After buying the cigarettes and alcohol, Haotian went to the nearby grocery store and bought some fruit and milk. He then took Xianmei to her classmate's apartment complex.

Xianmei called her classmate, who came down to greet her. Haotian saw that Xianmei's classmate was a big, burly man with a rough voice, like a weightlifter, and carried the milk and fruit with ease, so he didn't go upstairs.

He greeted Xianmei and her classmate and got into the car. They returned to Guyang Village just as it was getting dark. Fanxia had completely changed from her serious and reserved demeanor that morning. As soon as she got home, she put a steaming bowl of mutton sauce on the table and started cooking for him.

"Xianmei just needs to find a job. I've been worrying about that these past few days. Xianmei told me it would probably cost over ten thousand yuan. I told her we'd cover the cost. Xianmei said her parents are worried about not having enough money." She went to visit her classmate today, partly to offer him a meal, and partly to talk to him so that he might want to come back to our Guyang Village Credit Cooperative. "

Fan Xia said to Hao Tian while making noodles.

Hao Tian stood at the kitchen door, looking at Fan Xia's round buttocks, listening to her excited words, and experiencing the joy of sunshine after the storm. He felt that Yang Lianfang's charm and inner qualities were far inferior to Fan Xia's, so he regretted calling Yang Lianfang.

After Fan Xia finished making the noodles, Hao Tian took a bowl and placed it on the table, then waited for her to take another bowl, and took it from her and placed it on the table as well. Fan Xia scooped the noodles that hadn't been scooped out of the pot into an iron rice bowl, while Hao Tian scooped the mutton soup into a bowl, waiting for Fan Xia to sit down before picking up his chopsticks to eat together.

Fan Xia wanted to tell Hao Tian to eat first, but felt it was good for him to develop this habit. She deeply felt that if people weren't used to it, they had to be strictly required, and the same was true for couples.

After the meal, Fan Xia cleaned up the mess, and Hao Tian went to help her again. She didn't stop him, and even taught him how to wash the pot, how to wash the dishes, and where and how to put them after washing. Hao Tian...

" Tian thought to himself that he would have to learn how to wash pots and pans in the future, but he felt it was something he should do. After leaving the kitchen, Fan Xia wanted to watch TV for a while. Hao Tian didn't dare to rush her to the bedroom for some intimacy; he remembered what Fan Xia had told him that morning.

He couldn't do anything to betray her again, but it was really difficult to do that. He had forced himself to do it at Yang Lianfang's house today, but after Fan Xia arrived, his mind relaxed, and he immediately started making mistakes, even calling Yang Lianfang. He had made

the call, but he absolutely couldn't do what she said on the phone. He had to avoid the women in the village and absolutely couldn't be alone with them.

Fan Xia had many things she wanted to say to Hao Tian, but she felt it wasn't the time to talk about everything. There were some things she wanted to keep from him, to make him feel that she hadn't made the final decision to marry him yet. Otherwise, he would be too impulsive and easily give in to his desires.

"I wonder when Liu Jin will be back?"

Seeing that Fan Xia was only focused on watching TV and not saying anything, Hao Tian, not wanting to watch TV much himself, started a conversation. "

Who cares? I don't care at all,"

Fan Xia replied casually when Hao Tian asked her about Liu Jin. This answer pleased Hao Tian greatly.

It seemed her heart was still completely with him; she was most afraid of him messing around with other women. Even if he did, he avoided letting it affect his love for her, Hao Tian thought.

"I'm most afraid you'll rekindle your old flame,"

Hao Tian said, seizing the opportunity when Fan Xia said she didn't care about Liu Jin.

"Fear won't help. You're actively trying to win my heart. If you keep doing things to upset me, rekindling your old flame is very likely!"

Fan Xia struck at Hao Tian's heart.

"I'll never upset you again!"

Hao Tian promised Fan Xia.

"Like I said, do good deeds, don't just say good things. I look at what you do, not what you say,"

Fan Xia reiterated what she had said that morning.

"What will you do if you find out I've done something to betray you?" "

Haotian wanted to get to the bottom of things.

"What can I do? We'll each go our own way, do our own things, and have nothing to do with each other, right? I don't like to repeat myself to you, understand?"

Fan Xia said bluntly.

"Good, you understand. Learn more, think more about how to run your company well, that's the right thing to do. I'm also telling you, after you've laid a solid foundation and finished your performance, I also need to put some effort into running the company."

Fan Xia felt responsible for guiding Haotian and not letting him develop recklessly.

"That's right, I really need to learn the most. Back in the village, I did very poorly in this area. Before, my father took care of me all the time at home. Now that I'm back in the village, he's entrusted me to you, he's very relieved."

Only then did Haotian remember the matter of learning.

“You’re really hard to deal with, not someone to be trifled with. I was hoping you’d step up and take on some manly responsibility, but I didn’t expect you to get so out of control without me giving you a good talking to.”

Fan Xia didn’t look Hao Tian in the eye.

Hao Tian felt that if things continued like this, he would lose face in Fan Xia’s eyes, and he secretly told himself that he needed to start training his self-discipline and self-control regularly. So he said to Fan Xia, “I want to make a training plan, can you help me?”

“Really? I was just about to tell you that. I was planning to start after the opera, but since you brought it up first, that’s even better. I’ll train with you. Starting tomorrow, we’ll get up at six in the morning and train in the yard. We’ll start with half an hour, then gradually increase the time, and finally increase it to an hour. With the new house and the training room, the training conditions will be even better.”

Fan Xia said happily.

106: Romantic Acacia 1

106: Romantic Acacia “I want to sleep,”

Hao Tian said.

“Go to sleep if you want to, I won’t stop you!”

Fan Xia was focused on watching TV.

“I want to sleep with you,”

Hao Tian said.

"Then go take a shower first, I'll go to sleep after I finish watching this episode,"

Fan Xia said casually.

Hao Tian breathed a sigh of relief when Fan Xia agreed and quickly went to the bathroom to shower. When he finished showering, Fan Xia hadn't finished watching. Hao Tian deliberately showed her his erect penis, but Fan Xia shook her head, indicating she didn't want to watch. Hao Tian then went to the north bedroom to sleep alone.

Why is she still not like those past few days? Is she really thinking about Liu Jin, just not saying it? What other reason could there be?

Thinking this, Hao Tian felt displeased, and his penis went limp.

It's so difficult, the changes are so drastic. Who knows what will happen next? Hao Tian's initial simple thoughts suddenly became incredibly complicated.

Does she not allow him to move even when they're sleeping together? She said something like that this morning. He thought the smiling Fan Xia was completely the same as before, but who would have thought she would ignore him while watching TV? She had never acted like this when they were together before.

Haotian began to doubt his own abilities and Fan Xia's attitude towards him. He blamed himself for being too naive; how could he have never considered that controlling a stunningly beautiful woman coveted by so many would be so difficult? He had always thought that secretly pursuing her was too much trouble, always hoping for a respectable and open display of affection, but now he found

himself increasingly perplexed. Lost in thought, he listened for a long while before hearing Fan Xia turn off the TV and go to the bathroom. "

I must behave properly," Haotian silently reminded himself. "Don't rush to get close to her. I must read the room and act according to her wishes."

Fan Xia finally entered the north bedroom, but she didn't speak. She slowly and deliberately took off her trousers, then her shirt, and then lay down on the bed. She didn't take off her underwear or bra—wasn't that telling him not to touch her?

Being so close yet unable to touch her was more unbearable than not sleeping together at all. "This woman is truly ruthless," Haotian thought.

“Tie Lihua is really good, the more you watch, the better it gets,”

Fan Xia said to Haotian, still immersed in the story.

“I didn’t watch it properly, I don’t understand what it’s about,”

Haotian had to agree with Fan Xia, but he felt in his heart that she was deliberately trying to annoy him, she knew he didn’t want to hear it but she still said it anyway.

“Life is really unpredictable. Tie Lihua is the daughter of a tomb raider, she married a teacher first, and now she’s a warlord’s wife. I kept thinking about how people will live their lives, it’s really too unpredictable. Some people live a peaceful life, while others go through all sorts of twists and turns and end up like this. The movie depicts a chaotic world, but now it’s a peaceful era, but people’s changes are sometimes unpredictable. Who would have thought that Wang Changsheng would also keep a mistress outside?”

Fan Xia sighed.

“Do you think Yang Lianfang is angry when she hears this news?”

Haotian asked, picking up where Fan Xia left off.

“How can I not be angry? Women are most afraid of their men having second thoughts. It's easier to deal with things at the beginning, but it gets complicated when feelings develop. I keep telling her to call him and find out what's going on. But I can't get any information from him; you can't tell from his tone of voice! Yang Lianfang is also a very straightforward person, and given their previously good relationship, this situation only makes me angrier,”

Fan Xia stated her opinion.

“Exactly. I'm not afraid of just supporting him financially, but I'm afraid that once feelings develop, it will be hard to separate,”

Hao Tian said.

“Definitely. If she doesn't try to salvage the situation now, it will be very dangerous,”

Fan Xia said.

Hao Tian wanted to get intimate with Fan Xia as soon as possible, so he replied with “Exactly” and asked, “Do you still forgive me?”

“If I didn't forgive you, would I still let you sleep with me?”

Fan Xia said.

"Then why aren't you even taking off your underwear and bra?"

"You're sleeping there wrapped tightly in the blankets, what's the point of me taking them off?"

"Well, I was thinking of getting into your bed!"

"That's your business, why are you asking me?"

"I'm afraid you won't let me in."

"You haven't even made any arrangements, how do you know I won't let you in?"

Hearing Fan Xia say this, Hao Tian's penis instantly hardened.

He immediately slipped into Fan Xia's bed and hugged her.

"Don't rush,"

Fan Xia pushed him away, "I'm still thinking about scenes from TV dramas, wait a minute!"

As she spoke, Fan Xia sat up and took off her bra and panties.

Hao Tian also sat up, watching Fan Xia remove her bra and panties, revealing his erection to her naked body.

"Wow! Your thing is still so strong, you're such a pervert."

Fan Xia said, flicking it with her hand.

"It misses you terribly!"

"It misses you? -- Not you? -- I think it only thinks about women."

"You're so mean!"

"Am I being mean, or is that really the case?"

"From today onwards, it only thinks about you."

"Why only today? Didn't you say that before?"

"This guy, he's really a bad thing. If you scold him, he won't behave. He loves you the most and is afraid you'll be unhappy."

"Looks like he still has feelings for me."

"Of course, don't you believe me?" "

I believe him for a while, then I don't. He relaxes his guard as soon as I let my guard down, which means he's not sincere."

"He is sincere, but this guy is really a slut. He falls for women's advances easily."

"How did Zhen Guoxiang tempt you?"

"That day I was walking towards the village committee, near Hu Juan's yard, when she came out of Hu Juan's house. I didn't notice her hugging me from behind and pulling this thing in. This thing gets hard and uncontrollable as soon as someone touches it."

"Aren't you ashamed? You're really putting the blame on Zhongtui! So, if you're saying that killing someone with a knife in your hand means you can pin it on your own hand? You're really good at making excuses for yourself!"

"I'm just telling the truth, you really need to keep a closer eye on him!"

"Then I won't do anything at all, no way! Do whatever you want, I'm never going to bother with you again."

"You need to discipline him for a while, once he gets used to it, you won't need to!"

"That sounds nice, but from now on I'll discipline him all the time, every day, it's not discipline, bye-bye!"

Fan Xia suddenly changed her tune again.

"That's more like it."

Haotian was secretly pleased, thinking that she had finally agreed to his wishes.

Haotian and Fan Xia sat facing each other talking, Haotian's hands supporting the kang (heated brick bed), his erection throbbing against Fan Xia, and Fan Xia would occasionally flick the very bouncy thing with her hand.

Seeing that Fan Xia kept fiddling with her erection and stopped talking to him, Hao Tian leaned closer to her, staring intently at her face and said, "Kiss my ass, you're my ass!"

106: Romantic Love 2

106: Romantic Love 2 Fan Xia was moved by Hao Tian's "Kiss my ass," her eyes sparkling. She looked at Hao Tian's satisfied expression with a charming gaze, spread her legs, and placed them on Hao Tian's legs. She held Hao Tian's shoulders with both hands and stared intently at his face. After a while, she said in a sweet voice, "Tian, -- good ass!"

She took one hand off his shoulder, squeezed his erection, and said in a coquettish voice, "Tian, -- look at it -- how beautiful! -- Tian, what character is it when the character for 'Tian' has a top?"

Fan Xia rubbed her erection with both hands.

“The character for ‘heaven’ with its top stroke is the character for ‘husband,’ I am your heavenly husband,”

Haotian replied while watching Fanxia massage his genitals, which had become a thick, black rod. He then freed one hand to pinch one of Fanxia’s nipples, which grew larger under his touch.

“Heavenly husband—you are my heavenly husband,”

Fanxia said sweetly, pressing her face against his erection.

“Building a temple on a high mountain is still too low, sitting across from you, I still miss you!”

Haotian, in his excitement, wanted to say rhyming sentences. He savored the unparalleled pleasure from Fanxia’s face rubbing against his genitals, constantly pinching and squeezing Fanxia’s nipples.

“There is only one bright star in the sky, and I have chosen you alone in the whole world.”

Fanxia raised her head, continuing to greedily play with Haotian’s erection, responding to Haotian with a rhyming sentence.

“Missing my sister so much that I’ve gone mad, I even want to fuck an old sow!”

Haotian adapted a line from a mountain climbing song.

"Missing my brother so much I've lost my soul, I've picked up a cucumber and treat it like my lifeline."

Fan Xia didn't care about the second half of Hao Tian's rhyme and immediately made up a reply.

"Darling, Xiaxia, I want to see your lower part,"

Hao Tian said in a coquettish tone.

"Mmm,"

Fan Xia replied in a coquettish tone as well.

Fan Xia was an actress, and once she got into character, she was completely immersed in it.

She folded the quilt into a square, put a pillow on top, then lay back on the pillow with her buttocks on it, stretched out her arms, raised her legs, and opened them a little, so that Hao Tian could see everything between her legs.

"A flower blooms before my eyes, but no one but the heavenly husband can enter!"

Hao Tian knelt between Fan Xia's legs and carefully examined her.

"The flower drips water to bloom for the heavens, the general who has emerged, come in quickly!"

Fan Xia responded to Hao Tian.

"The general emerged at ten, and at fourteen he was already in love with his aunt and flirting."

Hao Tian was not in a hurry to enter; he liked this romantic mood and continued to make up rhyming sentences.

“The general is eighteen and tall, his face flushed red, he insists on inserting himself.”

Fan Xia immediately echoed Hao Tian, speaking with utmost seriousness. Other women would either be unable to say it, or if they did, they would surely laugh, but she didn't laugh at all.

“The general loves the water chest (Xia Xia), there’s no way he won’t insert himself.”

Hao Tian continued.

“The water chest (Xia Xia) has blossomed inside, just waiting for brother to insert himself.”

Fan Xia blurted out.

“Round legs, black hair, vibrant flowers, I can’t get enough of looking at them. The water chest (Xia Xia) is blooming with large flowers, I really want to slowly lick it all.”

With each sentence Hao Tian spoke, Fan Xia’s body swayed.

Hao Tian clearly saw that as Fan Xia’s body swayed, a stream of juice would overflow from the flower.

“The tongue should stand aside, because the general has objections.”

Fan Xia finished speaking and sat up, saying, “I want you to put it in, it smells so good!”

She said this urgently, throwing the pillow and blanket aside.

This time, Haotian didn't immediately enter as Fanxia wished. Instead, he pulled her to her feet, made her stand against the wall, and then lifted one of her legs, bringing it almost to her head. Fanxia's legs were almost in a straight line—a skill she had honed through practice.

Fanxia obediently followed Haotian's instructions, standing with one leg against the wall. To an outsider, this looked like torture for a beautiful woman, but Fanxia didn't see it that way.

She waited for Haotian, who grasped her slightly limp penis, making it erect, and easily inserted it into Fanxia's wetness, thrusting his body.

Fanxia made "hissing" sounds, and Haotian, knowing she was enjoying it, increased the speed of his thrusts.

Haotian continued thrusting, and Fanxia smacked her lips. After a while, she softly said, "I think I'll lie down; I'm a little sleepy."

Haotian then helped Fanxia lower her legs, and Fanxia lay on her back on the mattress, quietly waiting for Haotian.

Haotian sat down next to Fanxia, letting her stroke his erect penis while he touched her smooth belly and said, "Precious fertile field nourished by rain and clouds, superior varieties sown in summer and autumn."

This made Fanxia laugh. She pinched Haotian's arm and said, "You're such a wimp, you never stop once you start something! Don't say such rhymes."

"This isn't a rhyme, it's a couplet I thought of after many days,"

Haotian said, climbing onto Fanxia's stomach and beginning his official work for the night.

Fanxia was at her most eager. She opened her eyes wide, gazing at Haotian, experiencing the pleasure brought by his constant movements on her body, occasionally letting out ecstatic moans.

Haotian diligently cultivated his favorite fertile field, going in and out, rocking and turning, kneading and pressing, changing positions several times.

Fanxia moaned and groaned, whimpering and whimpering as Haotian's erect penis pounded into her. After about 20 minutes of continuous activity, Haotian ejaculated, completing their romantic encounter.

"You need to develop this area properly. I think today was better than any other time,"

Haotian said, kissing Fanxia and then stroking her cheek.

"You always say this time is better than the last, but you forget about it as soon as you've done it!"

Fanxia said, stroking Haotian's smooth back.

"So, how did you feel today?"

Haotian asked, gazing at Fanxia's bright, white teeth.

"You're so romantic, I love your kind of romance, but I'm also afraid of it. What woman doesn't love romance? But there aren't many truly romantic men. To be romantic, you need a healthy body and a good mindset. And I'm warning you, you're not allowed to sneak around with other women behind my back."

Fan Xia said, slapping Hao Tian on the back.

"You need to be constantly vigilant, but the most important thing is that you have to make sure General Red Head doesn't have the energy to sneak around!"

"My god, who can handle General Red Head like you!"

"Let's let General Red Head fire three times today, and see if it'll still be tempted by women tomorrow."

"Don't always blame General Red Head. You're just blaming him for nothing, aren't you? With this attitude, you'll never change your bad habits."

Fan Xia said, slapping Hao Tian's arm twice more.

"Hahaha, you're such a hard woman to please!"

Hao Tian laughed, hit where it hurt, and then hugged Fan Xia and kissed her passionately.

Fan Xia and Hao Tian kissed passionately for a while, then Fan Xia warned again, "Don't be shameless. Have some self-respect. Remember how embarrassing you were this morning?"

"I'll never forget it,"

Hao Tian said, then seemed a little sleepy. Seeing him drowsy, Fan Xia quickly turned off the light, her eyes stinging.

107: "General" Goes Wild

107: "General" Goes Wild Fan Xia treated Hao Tian with indifference, deliberately saying she wanted to sever all ties with him, a method that proved very effective. Hao Tian became very obedient and loyal, always watching her every move, which pleased her greatly. Sitting in her office, recalling that day when she suddenly felt people starting to look at her coldly, her mood was chaotic for a time, and now she felt she was really a bit neurotic.

Because in the past two days, she hadn't noticed anyone looking down on her; men were constantly casting admiring glances at her, and some who tried to seduce her were becoming increasingly brazen. The women's gazes were mostly filled with envy. Even Hu Lian, Liu Huahua, and Hu Juan, who had looked at her coldly that day, were now very attentive to her.

Fan Xia was secretly pleased that she had found a way to deal with Hao Tian, but it also put a lot of pressure on her. The world is a strange place; it's never easy to feel completely at ease. Perhaps this was fate's arrangement for Fan Xia, who always tended to overthink. Now, her biggest concern was how to keep her and Hao Tian's love fresh and lasting. Her conclusion was that she had to work even harder.

She understood very well that when a man is young, a woman shouldn't be dependent on him. In the past twenty days or so, she had deeply experienced this, tasting the bittersweetness of it all.

Since she had already chosen this path, she could only focus on nurturing it. If she managed it well, it would be a joy; if not, regret would follow. This was also what her parents worried about most.

Fan Xia had full confidence in managing her love with Hao Tian. She was determined to throw herself into life with even greater enthusiasm, meticulously handling every aspect and every matter.

Maintaining one's self-worth and status is crucial for a successful relationship. If marrying Haotian causes a significant drop in one's worth, or even makes one a target of public criticism, Haotian might eventually change his mind. One must not blindly trust his words. Even if Haotian truly does well, one must remain vigilant and act accordingly. Furthermore, if Haotian lacks ambition and is merely a virile figure in bed, the outcome won't be happy.

Therefore, Fan Xia reiterated that while doing her job well, she must also help Haotian straighten out his thoughts and build a successful career.

Fan Xia felt that although Haotian was ambitious, insightful, and decisive, he was too lustful. She feared that his lust might gradually lead to unexpected changes.

This concern gradually surfaced in her mind. Although she had started worrying about it in the days after Haotian's return, her anxiety only intensified over time.

She increasingly felt the need to invest more time and effort in this area. She thought of Haotian's excessive lust and found him both endearing and infuriating. She wondered how his desires could be so strong. What bothered her even more was that her own desires had been aroused by him these past two days.

Satisfying Haotian's sexual desires was no problem, but she feared that constantly satisfying him would corrupt his mind and ruin his health.

Her observation about Haotian's "always scheming" was increasingly proving to be accurate.

Fan Xia knew she had to make him truly understand that life was too difficult, and he should never act recklessly when he was successful, including in his sex life with his wife.

She had repeatedly told him that if she completely let go, he would soon break down. Just recently, she heard that an old carpenter in Niujiaying Village had aged prematurely because of his lustful wife. It was said that the old carpenter, now in his fifties, walked with a limp and unsteady gait, and was no longer able to do farm work.

He told Haotian about it, and although Haotian said he understood, he suggested they try a phase together, letting his "general" have some fun, otherwise he'd feel restless.

Since her outburst, Haotian had been completely obedient to her. So Fanxia thought, since he'd been so compliant these past few days, if she firmly refused his request to try it out, she feared it would upset Haotian and backfire.

Coincidentally, Xianmei's mother hadn't been feeling well these past few days, and Xianmei's father said the county education bureau urgently needed advanced materials for the school, so they had to hurry. Xianmei went back to stay with her mother.

For three nights in a row, she and Haotian had been making love more frequently each night. She was surprised by the intensity of her own libido; under Haotian's fierce onslaught, she had become a wanton woman. The harder Haotian went, the more pleasurable she felt, and the more pleasurable she felt, the more she wanted to do it again.

Haotian said her "field" hadn't been properly cultivated yet, and she actually found his words quite reasonable. Before, she would only do it once, and then lose interest within three to five days. But these past two days, she'd been insatiable; the moment Haotian teased her, she became unbearably aroused.

She thought she might be like the old carpenter's wife from Niujiaying Village, a naturally lustful person.

It was said that the old carpenter's wife had worn down the once incredibly healthy carpenter, yet she herself remained robust, now almost 50, doing all the farm work and still managing to marry one of the village's youngest bachelors—truly remarkable.

She worried that if she continued like this, she would ruin Haotian's health. She knew that unrestrained sexual activity could cause neurasthenia in men, and once the neurasthenia developed, it was difficult to treat.

According to the village doctor, it was called "damaging one's vital energy," and once that was damaged, it was impossible to fully recover.

Haotian fully accepted Fanxia's advice, but Fanxia thought that he always agreed readily one moment, and then couldn't resist the next. Now, she was also starting to feel the urge herself. Last night, they went to bed at 9 pm and played around until almost 11 pm. Haotian ejaculated three times during their playful encounter, taking nearly two hours in total. But this morning, she couldn't resist crawling into Haotian's bed and asking him to play with her for another half hour, ejaculating again.

Just seeing Haotian, even just thinking about him, gave her the urge to have sex. She suddenly understood why Haotian said he couldn't resist.

What was the reason? Fan Xia planned to go to a hospital in Zhenshan City with Haotian after the opera performance to get checked out.

"He who does not plan for the future will have trouble in the present,"

Fan Xia thought. "I've regretted enough of the detours I took in the first half of my life; I can't afford to do anything I regret in the second half."

Divorce from Chang Hongyun was a done deal; all that was left was for Chang Yu and Xianmei to get engaged before finalizing the divorce. The decision to marry was made, but Haotian's mindset needed to be changed beforehand. As the director of the Women's Federation, Fan Xia had considerable experience in ideological work, so she was not only confident but also capable. Of course, a crucial factor in success was Haotian's effort.

Fan Xia was very pleased that Xianmei had found a job. Xianmei needed her help finding employment, and Xianmei hadn't shown any reluctance to get engaged, and her contact with Chang Yu was very active. Once her son was engaged to Xianmei, her concerns about divorce would be completely eliminated. Moreover, her son wouldn't mind so much, because he was grown up and knew that his parents' marital feelings had long since faded. Xianmei had also told her that even if Chang Yu wasn't entirely agreeable, she would persuade her. Fan Xia believed that Xianmei could definitely convince Chang Yu.

Haotian was young, and a handsome man that women adored; Fan Xia was well aware of this. Therefore, it was inevitable that Haotian would occasionally fool around with some women, but she had to keep a close eye on him and never let him get away with it.

Tonight was the opera performance, and Fan Xia had made ample preparations. She had memorized the lyrics Haotian had written for her and had sung them several times on the computer at home, following Wang Aiai's singing style.

The village chief had learned this information from Haotian and had personally visited her home the day before yesterday to ask if it was true, even having her sing it for him.

The village chief was really pushing his luck; having heard Fan Xia say it was true, he actually wanted to have Fan Xia sing a folk song duet with Ergedan from Xiliang.

Since becoming village chief, Gao Jun hadn't dared to let Fan Xia perform on stage during the village opera performances. Although Fan Xia hadn't explicitly said she couldn't sing, Zhao Yun always told him not to let Fan Xia sing before each performance. How could a village chief dare disobey the township head's instructions?

The village chief was very hospitable, Fan Xia loved to sing, Hao Tian supported her, and Zhao Yun stopped interfering, so Fan Xia readily agreed to sing folk songs. Singing folk songs is improvisational and doesn't require much preparation. However, these past few days, Fan Xia had some free time, so she would sing some Jin opera and then prepare a few lines of folk songs.

Hao Tian, on the other hand, had fulfilled his wishes and demands these past few days. He had fully expressed himself to Fan Xia, and thus became even more devoted to her. He constantly warned himself not to be rash and casual, and to avoid women with ulterior motives if possible. Even if he couldn't avoid them, he would maintain a serious and dignified demeanor, preventing them from getting close to him.

Yang Lianfang called him almost every day, asking him to come to her house, but he always said he was busy and had plenty of time to write materials. Yang Lianfang could only patiently wait for an opportunity. That day, she received a call from Wang Changsheng. She didn't ask the questions Fan Xia had suggested, because she had already had a relationship with Hao Tian and lacked confidence. More importantly, she still couldn't let go of Hao Tian.

Haotian was cautious in his words and actions, determined to cultivate a completely new image. During the day, after Fanxia went to work, since Xianmei hadn't come, he contacted Fanxia's father and personally kept the accounts. Fanxia's father already knew from his eldest daughter about her desire to find Haotian, so he felt very embarrassed thinking about what he had witnessed that day and his own beating of Haotian. He simply became more attentive to his work at the construction site.

Haotian, however, completely forgot about that incident and treated his future father-in-law with utmost respect. When Fanxia's father saw Haotian and thought of his daughter, he was happy but also worried. When the elderly couple were alone together, they discussed it every day. Although they were somewhat surprised by their eldest daughter's decision, they also felt guilty when recalling her past experiences. Therefore, they were only worried that Haotian was too young and might not make it to the end.

108: Dazzling Style

108: Dazzling Style In the afternoon, Fanxia was at work reading the document issued by the county women's federation regarding the convening of the county women's congress when she suddenly received a call from the village head, asking her to go to the village committee now to talk to the leaders of the theater troupe about some matters if she could spare the time.

Fan Xia hadn't performed on stage for a long time. Although she listened to recordings at home, she still felt more comfortable discussing the collaboration with the troupe's band in person. So, she put down the documents in her hand and hurried to the village committee.

Leaving the office, she passed the theater and saw people busy setting up on the stage, children happily chasing and playing, and some idlers chatting nearby—the lively atmosphere was palpable.

Suddenly, she heard a car horn. Turning around, she saw a car stop beside her, and then a familiar face leaned out of the window.

"Oh! Liu Jin, it's you back!"

Fan Xia exclaimed, tears welling up in her eyes.

"I'm back. Weren't you asking about me? Why are you crying?"

Liu Jin said with a smile. Fan

Xia quickly wiped away her tears and said, "I was just excited. It's good that you're back. Whose house did you go to?"

Fan Xia assumed Liu Jin had just returned.

"I'm at Xinghua's house. I came back this morning. My car was parked next to the township government. I thought you might not come out, and you did,"

Liu Jin said.

"Oh, right, Xinghua is your distant cousin, I just remembered. — Village Chief Gao Jun asked me to go to the village committee, I have to hurry, see you later!"

Fan Xia waved to Liu Jin and hurried towards the village committee.

Suddenly seeing Liu Jin, she felt a mix of emotions. Her former lover, whom she had thought was dead, was alive and well before her eyes, and she was so moved that tears streamed down her face.

Without thinking too much, she took a few steps and entered the village committee compound. She couldn't help but look back one last time; Liu Jin's car hadn't started yet. Fan Xia felt that Liu Jin's eyes were still on her, so she deliberately thought of Haotian to dispel any thoughts Liu Jin might have had on her mind.

She smiled as she entered the village committee office, and the village chief introduced Fan Xia to a man and a woman she didn't know: "This is our township women's federation director."

Then he told Fan Xia, "This is the head of the theater troupe, and that beautiful lady is the deputy head."

After exchanging pleasantries with the head and deputy head of the theater troupe, Fan Xia greeted Haotian and Gao Jianhe.

Gao Jian had just discussed the foundation-laying ceremony with Hao Tian, and was waiting for Fan Xia to arrive: "We've spoken with the two leaders of the troupe, and we've arranged a performance of 'Beating the Golden Branch' for you. Try to coordinate with the orchestra and actors when you have some free time."

Fan Xia said she could only sing a cappella; she probably couldn't sing the full version. Firstly, she hadn't sung in years and was afraid she wouldn't remember the lyrics completely, and secondly, she was worried about not having practiced with the orchestra before.

The deputy troupe leader, a leading female role performer, went on stage once a day, and said she'd find a morning to rehearse first. He seemed somewhat dismissive of Fan Xia. The village chief noticed something amiss and said to the deputy troupe leader, "You're quite good-looking, I've seen you. But don't underestimate our actress; she's loved by everyone here."

The troupe leader, sensing the village chief's inappropriate tone, quickly replied, "The people in your village take opera very seriously. We've been to many places around here, and compared to others, your enthusiasm and dedication are rare. No problem, we'll definitely perform well while fulfilling the wishes of the local people. But a good performance is essential. Since the local people like it, it must be good. Our deputy troupe leader didn't mean to belittle you." "

Listen to the tone of your words, listen to the gongs and drums! Can't I tell what's going on? Alright, that's enough from you, troupe leader. You don't understand our actress, so I'm just telling you."

The village chief's tone softened.

“The deputy troupe leader is right. Having never performed in opera before, I don’t know the intricacies. People often say, ‘Nine out of ten operas don’t match, and even when they do, there’s no reason why.’ If the performances don’t match, it won’t work; if they do, but the differences are too great, it’s also difficult to handle.”

Fan Xia came to the deputy troupe leader’s rescue.

The deputy troupe leader then smiled and said, “This young lady speaks with expertise. Village Chief, you’ve confused me. I didn’t know what to say either.”

“You say she’s your sister? How old do you think she is?”

The village chief chuckled and then asked,

"I'm turning 38 today, she's definitely younger than me."

The deputy commander's attitude became very earnest.

"Then you're still younger than me, I'm 40,"

Fan Xia replied in Mandarin.

"Sister, you look so young! How do you maintain your youth so well? Share your secrets with me!"

the deputy commander said, grabbing Fan Xia's hand.

"You're wrong about that. Your older sister's secret is a secret, how could she teach it to anyone?"

Gao Jian said mysteriously, glancing at Hao Tian. "You should ask this handsome guy!"

"You're such a clueless person!"

Fan Xia said, giving Gao Jian a fierce look, then asked the deputy head of the troupe, "Have you arranged accommodations?"

"I've arranged accommodations for the two leaders, who are also a couple, here. This bed is fine for either of them!"

the village chief said. "It's convenient to be close to the theater, and they agreed. Gao Jian can build a multi-purpose building and open a guesthouse. Every day when we perform, we can arrange for the actors to stay at the guesthouse."

"Hao Tian still has to say a few words, is he ready?"

Fan Xia asked.

"Just say a few words, there's no need to prepare. I've already talked to the village chief, and he'll say a few more words, and this one too."

Hao Tian said, patting Gao Jian on the shoulder.

"You can say whatever you want. You're the big spender, I'm the small spender, so the big spender should say the right thing."

Gao Jian said.

“Tell me, the little boss has spent a lot of money, just to buy some special treatment on stage, and he still won’t say anything,”

the village chief said.

“You can just take his place, I can’t say anything, just say Haotian and my name clearly,”

Gao Jian said.

“You’re talking nonsense, then you don’t need to say anything, I’ll say it first, and then Haotian will say it,”

the village chief said to his cousin Gao Jian.

“I’m singing a cappella today, the lyrics were written by Haotian, and the rhythm will be the same as Wang Aiai’s ‘April,’ do we need to coordinate?”

Fan Xia asked the deputy troupe leader.

“Before the show starts, come backstage and talk to the musician, if we need to coordinate, then we can coordinate,”

the deputy troupe leader said, then suddenly added, “Really, I’ve thought of another idea, see if it works? Tonight I’ll sing ‘Beating the Golden Branch’ for my sister to hear, see if she can keep up?”

“Sure! More than 20 shows, one special performance, and Fan Xia will still be on stage, no problem!”

the village chief said.

"That's good!"

Fan Xia had this idea for a while, but hadn't said it.

"Hao Tian's seven days of writing are finished, so let's have another 'Beating the Golden Branch' performance in the evenings starting with Gao Jian's four days of writing. That would be great!"

the village chief said excitedly.

After agreeing, they went home. Fan Xia got into Hao Tian's car and started cooking as soon as they got back. On the way, Hao Tian wanted to take Fan Xia to a restaurant to save her from cooking, but Fan Xia disagreed and insisted that she cook.

While Fan Xia and Hao Tian were eating, some idle people and children from the village had already reserved the stage at the front of the theater.

Today, almost every household in Guyang Village has relatives, which is a local custom. However, in recent years, the number of people watching the plays has gradually decreased. The reason is that almost every household has a television, and many families who love watching plays also have DVD players, so they can watch plays as soon as they want. Also, young people don't like watching plays, and some gamblers take advantage of the gathering of people watching plays to gamble.

This year was different. Most of the daughters from every household came, including those who worked or did business in other places, all rushing back to see the first performance. The reason was that everyone wanted to see Haotian and Fanxia. After the news of the performance spread, rumors also began to circulate that Fanxia was divorcing Chang Hongyun and marrying Haotian.

Everyone knew Fanxia was going to perform, and they came not for anything else but to see her, hear her voice, and see what kind of charm this woman in her early forties possessed that could make a young man willing to marry her.

The village chief arrived at the theater early and saw that even an hour before the performance, the theater was already packed. Business owners had also set up their stalls around the theater.

The theater was brightly lit, and more and more people came. Many from the surrounding villages also came, especially those from nearby areas. People greeted each other, some chatting and laughing in twos and threes, others whispering among themselves.

The most whispered topic was, of course, Fan Xia and Hao Tian's marriage, with both praise and criticism.

Wandering around the theater, most of the conversations were praising Hao Tian for funding the play and Fan Xia for her exceptional talent and singing ability.

When Fan Xia and Hao Tian arrived at the theater, someone started a commotion, and a group of children cheered, some even whistling.

They weaved through the crowd, went around to the side door behind the stage, and entered backstage, where the village chief was waiting. The troupe leader and deputy leader saw them and welcomed them inside. Some of the actors had heard about Hao Tian and Fan Xia from the villagers during their meal, and most knew about it, their eyes fixed on them.

Fan Xia and Hao Tian received curious and envious glances, making them very happy. After the deputy leader introduced Fan Xia to the musician, the two discussed singing and the arrangement of the silk threads.

The drums and gongs sounded in the foreground, and the theater was already packed. People continued to arrive from all directions, in small cars, farm vehicles, and cars.

Those in the front seats gradually grew impatient, some shouting, "Start the show! Start the show!"

Despite the shouts, the show couldn't begin because more people were rushing to the theater, and it wasn't yet the scheduled start time.

Fan Xia watched the deputy troupe leader put on makeup while chatting animatedly. Hao Tian and the village chief discussed topics of mutual interest.

Finally, it was time for the performance to begin. The village chief spoke first, explaining that Hao Tian and Gao Jian had personally funded the opera, then discussing Hao Tian's land leasing and Gao Jian's construction of the multi-purpose building, saying it was beneficial to the villagers.

When Hao Tian went on stage to speak, after thanking the villagers, he recited a few rhyming lines, making everyone laugh. He said, "Haotiancheng's son has returned to his hometown, and his hometown is closer than his own mother. He contracts land to cultivate fertile fields, and when the crops are good, the villagers smile with joy. The villagers hope that I will cultivate the land well, so I spend money every year to put on grand operas. Gao Jian has made money from contracting projects, and a comprehensive building has been built with all the necessary functions. The restaurant stretches as far as the eye can see, and there's no need to worry about business banquets at home anymore. Cultural and sports activities are held frequently, and reading books and newspapers is very convenient. I'll say a few less

words and get the opera started, so the musicians can quickly start playing their instruments." After Haotian finished speaking, he immediately went backstage, and the instruments started playing right away. As soon as Fan Xia came on stage, applause erupted. She didn't speak, but her cry of "July" immediately drew another round of enthusiastic applause.

All eyes in the theater were focused on Fan Xia. Today, she was wearing a blue uniform, which made her look elegant and dignified. Although it didn't match the character's status in the play, she gave off a generous and graceful feeling on stage, attracting the attention of some men so much that their eyes almost popped out. 03-12

109: Strong Desire

109: Strong Desire Behind the crowd watching the play, Liu Jin was surrounded by a group of people who kept asking him questions.

Liu Jin always smiled at the people asking him questions, but did not answer truthfully. He seemed to have already thought it through, so he said the same few words to everyone, "It's all in the past, don't ask about it, it's really boring to talk about it."

"I'm back, and seeing everyone makes you happy, and that's good too."

"I'm a wanderer, I don't have a fixed place."

Seeing his unwillingness to answer truthfully, the villagers stopped asking.

Although Liu Jin was watching the drama unfold, his heart was in turmoil, unable to find peace. Hearing people praise Fan Xia and Hao Tian and talk about their desire to marry, he realized that winning Fan Xia back from Hao Tian wouldn't be as easy as the village head had said, but extremely difficult.

He began to ponder how to implement his plan step by step. He thought he first needed to talk to Fan Xia to shake her resolve to marry Hao Tian, while simultaneously finding as many reasons as possible why Hao Tian wasn't suitable for her.

Fan Xia's captivating beauty intensified Liu Jin's desire to possess her. Initially, when Zhao Yun encouraged him, he only had a try-it-out mentality, but after returning and seeing her with his own eyes, his old feelings rekindled, and his resolve hardened.

He was deeply moved the first time he saw Fan Xia today, and even more overjoyed when he saw her tears. Fan Xia immediately stopped crying, saying she had urgent business, and quickly waved goodbye and left. He was stunned again.

He clearly realized that although they had been inseparable in the past, and she had even fathered one of his children, time had passed, and her place in Fan Xia's heart had indeed faded. Hao Tian was young, strong, handsome, and had a commanding presence. Furthermore, Hao Chenggong was now wealthy, making him incredibly attractive to a woman who loved a romantic life.

However, Liu Jin remained confident because he had the township head, Zhao Yun, secretly supporting him. He had once feared Zhao Yun, but gradually came to admire him greatly. Zhao Yun had taken Fan Xia from him and then schemed to get rid of him, leaving him seething with resentment.

Now that Hao Tian had taken Fan Xia from Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun was going to help him win her back. He thought this must be fate; Fan Xia was rightfully his.

Liu Jin thought, "Good things come to those who wait." What man wouldn't want to have Fan Xia after all this hardship? Such a wonderful thing couldn't be accomplished so easily. It was difficult, but we absolutely couldn't give up.

After the performance, Liu Jin returned to his cousin Xinghua's house and saw his uncle Niu Li praising Fan Xia's singing. So, he joined Niu Li in praising Fan Xia. Niu Li said, "The actress who played Jinzhi Nu tonight sang quite well, but compared to Fan Xia, she was far inferior. Fan Xia didn't wear any makeup, but her movements and singing were captivating. Look at the opening scene, people didn't move except to clap. In many years, who has ever seen such a scene at a theater?"

Liu Jin noticed that Xinghua's expression showed some displeasure at her father's praise of Fan Xia, so he didn't say much and just nodded.

Xinghua said, "Don't even mention how well she sings. I think her singing is just average. How can she compare to that Jinzhinu who sings so well? She's just pretty, so people say she sings well. And even if they say she sings well, they can't keep saying it endlessly. They haven't finished talking about it on stage, and they still have to talk about it at home."

"She's pretty, but she also sings well. If she doesn't sing well, being pretty is useless!"

Niu Li insisted.

"You even know what singing is?"

his daughter retorted.

"I don't know, but do you? I've watched plays for years, and I can practically recite plays like 'Beating Jinzhi' by heart,"

the father countered .

"Stop bragging! Then recite it for me!"

his daughter still argued.

"What's wrong with you two? What's the point of arguing like this?"

Liu Jin asked, somewhat surprised.

“It’s one thing to see Xiren singing, but to insist on praising her singing and go on and on. Who wants to listen to so much nonsense?”

Niu Xinghua said angrily, then took off her clothes, revealing her pale body, and lay down next to Liu Jin, letting her 13-year-old daughter sleep next to her grandfather.

Niu Li, ignoring his daughter’s anger, continued, “If someone sings well, a little praise isn’t considered praise? I’ve never seen anyone like you!”

“If you think she sings well, then go listen to her sing every day!”

Niu Xinghua suddenly snapped.

“I didn’t say that, did I? You said it!”

Niu Li glared at Xinghua.

“I did say it, so what? Are you going to eat me up? You’re still open-eyed!”

Niu Xinghua retorted defiantly.

“How could I dare eat you up? I can’t afford to offend you, but I can avoid you. I’ll leave tomorrow.”

Niu Li’s tone softened as he faced the window to sleep.

“Even if you leave now!”

Niu Xinghua was still angry, but her voice was much softer.

Liu Jin found it strange. Listening to the father and son's argument and accusations, he was completely baffled. He wanted to stop them, but also thought it would be good for them to argue a bit; they would be fine after the argument.

Seeing that the two weren't as angry as before, he said to Niu Li, "Uncle, turn off the light and let's go to sleep. It's past 1 a.m. This is trivial, why get angry over it!"

Niu Li casually turned off the light and didn't say anything more. Liu Jin took off his clothes in the dark.

He had just fallen asleep when Niu Xinghua moved her buttocks closer to him. Liu Jin's hand touched Niu Xinghua's fleshy buttocks, pretending it was Fan Xia's, and he quickly thrust in without hesitation.

Her buttocks started moving before he could even move. The room was dark, and it was already quiet outside. Niu Li held his breath and heard everything. His lustful daughter and cousin were already having sex.

Niu Li wanted to turn on the light, but he was afraid his daughter would be angry and scold him, so he pretended not to hear. Liu Jin was terrified of being overheard by his uncle, so he held Xinghua's buttocks to prevent her from moving, but Xinghua didn't care. Xinghua moved her body relentlessly, and Liu Jin gradually became less afraid.

So he began to take the initiative; he hadn't been inside a woman for several days and was very thirsty. Seeing Fan Xia today had caused him to secretly become erect several times, and he even stroked himself while relieving himself. Now, in the darkness, he would use Xinghua as Fan Xia to tease her!

Xinghua had long harbored the idea of being with her cousin, but back then, her handsome cousin was far beyond the reach of others. He was deeply involved with Fan Xia and looked down on her completely. Today, when he returned to her house, she was almost overjoyed. She asked him if he was leaving, and when he said no, her heart blossomed.

Liu Jin wasn't particularly interested in his cousin, but he knew of her frivolity and shallowness. She had just spoken to his father like that; she didn't seem to have become more civilized with age, and even appeared more uncouth than before.

Liu Jin felt comfortable penetrating Xinghua's body. He felt that although Niu Xinghua's appearance was not as good as Fan Xia's, her body was still quite attractive. He thrust quickly for a while, then stopped, stroking Xinghua's back. Xinghua's buttocks began to sway again. Xinghua

had married into the Miao family when she was 19. On their wedding night, people at the window thought Miao Feng wouldn't be able to deflower her, but they ended up having sex as soon as they lay down.

People knew that although Miao Feng wasn't very tall, his penis was quite large. Niu Xinghua really liked Miao Feng's big member. Miao Feng had initially worried that Xinghua wouldn't like him because of their mismatched appearances, but Xinghua was very satisfied with him in bed. However, Xinghua, who was very short-tempered, would call Miao Feng "Wu Dalang" (a derogatory term for a man of short stature) and threaten him with divorce whenever they argued.

Miao Feng was most afraid that Xinghua would threaten him with divorce. He felt that he had finally found such a good wife with his looks, and it would be bad if he divorced her and found someone else. Therefore, he gradually tried to please Xinghua and indulge her.

Women are truly difficult to please; the more you spoil them, the less reasonable they become. Xinghua speaks carelessly, her mouth full of vulgarities, always giving the impression of a shrew. The villagers all say Xinghua was spoiled by her grandmother. While it's true her grandmother spoiled her somewhat because she lost her mother at a young age, Miao Feng spoiled her even more.

In terms of looks, Xinghua can't compare to Fan Xia, but her prominent buttocks and concave waist are very attractive to men.

Liu Jin stroked Xinghua's fleshy buttocks, finding the feel very good. After Xinghua swayed a few times, she began to thrust again.

Xinghua wasn't satisfied with Liu Jin always doing it from behind; she rolled over to help him onto her stomach. Liu Jin simply did as Xinghua requested, thrusting in and moving vigorously. Neither of them dared to make a sound, but they couldn't help but breathe heavily. Niu Li, lying on the kang (heated brick bed), listened, and his penis also became erect.

Under Liu Jin's thrusting, Niu Xinghua almost cried out in pleasure. Liu Jin, aroused by Xinghua's wantonness, thrust even harder, quickly ejaculating inside his cousin.

Niu Li had always known Xinghua was a wanton woman, reckless once she got going.

It turned out that Niu Li's wife had died in confinement after giving birth to Xinghua. After her death, he entrusted the house to his cousin Niu Jin and went out to make a living. He sent Xinghua to her maternal grandmother to raise, and never cared for her again, never even returning to see her. When Xinghua

was 18, someone proposed marriage to Miao Feng. Xinghua's maternal grandfather sent a message to Niu Li, asking him to come back to see his daughter and find her a suitable match. Xinghua's maternal grandfather was an honest, simple farmer. He said that even though Niu Li had never been involved, he was still her father, and it wouldn't be right not to say anything when his own flesh and blood were getting engaged.

After receiving the message from Xinghua's maternal grandfather, Niu Li discussed it with his second wife, who not only agreed but was also very happy. This was because Niu Li's second wife had never had children with him; she had two sons from her previous marriage but no daughters.

Niu Li traveled from the back mountain to Xinghua's maternal grandparents' house and was overjoyed to see his daughter had grown into a beautiful young woman. After visiting Miao Feng in the village, although he felt Miao Feng was too short and his appearance didn't suit his daughter, he knew Miao Feng's father well and knew they were a good family with decent circumstances. He thought that as long as his daughter married well, that was enough.

Xinghua's maternal grandparents and uncles shared the same opinion as Xinghua's father. They also believed that Xinghua had suffered a lot, losing her mother at a young age, and it would be difficult for her to find a suitable husband; finding Miao Feng was a good match.

After the engagement, Niu Li wanted to take his daughter to the back mountain for a few days. At the urging of her maternal grandparents, Xinghua went with her father to the back mountain.

Upon arriving at the back mountain, Xinghua's stepmother, having no daughter of her own, took a liking to her. Xinghua found it a comfortable place to stay and stayed for about 20 days. Sometimes, Niu Li would take his daughter to work in the fields. In secluded, open areas, he found her protruding buttocks particularly alluring. One day, he suddenly remembered that Xinghua's mother had been married before, and also thought about how he and his second wife hadn't had any children. A strange idea popped into his head, and one day, while bowing over the crops, he told his daughter that she wasn't his biological daughter.

After saying this, Xinghua collapsed into Niu Li's arms and cried. Niu Li stroked his daughter's head, and gradually they began to embrace and kiss.

It turned out that Xinghua had already been defiled, and after hearing Niu Li say they weren't biologically father and son, they had actually had sex in the wilderness.

Two years ago, Niu Li's second wife died, and Niu Li sold his belongings in the back mountain and returned to Guyang Village. The father and son were very arrogant, showing no restraint whatsoever in front of Miao Feng. When they slept, Xinghua was sandwiched between Miao Feng and her father. After Miao Feng discovered the affair between the father and son, he didn't dare to confront his wife. Sometimes, even a hint of interest would earn him a severe scolding.

Niu Li knew Xinghua didn't want him to praise Fan Xia, because Xinghua had repeatedly warned him not to pursue beautiful women, especially Fan Xia, and to avoid her. Niu Li found it strange that Xinghua seemed to find him so appealing. He thought to himself, "I can't even get her hand in my hair, and to put it more bluntly, I can't even drink her urine. If I could, I'd be ecstatic."

Hao

Tian was in a very good mood. After finishing the play last night, he and Fan Xia went straight to bed as soon as they got home. He got up at 7 a.m. and, as agreed, exercised with Fan Xia in the yard. He followed Fan Xia's lead, stretching his arms, inhaling, bending over, rubbing his abdomen, and kicking his legs to warm up. After that, he did a dozen push-ups, then placed his hands on the ground and did a handstand against the east wall for one minute. Fan Xia praised him for doing well and told him to proceed gradually.

After exercising for half an hour, having breakfast, and after Fan Xia left for work, Hao Tian called his father to tell him that the foundation for the house had started, with Grandpa Changyu supervising the work, and that it was going very well. He also happily told his father that there were many people watching the play last night, making the village very lively, and everyone in the village praised the Hao family for their abilities. The arrangements for erecting the monument on July 15th had also been made.

His father told him to prepare a meal after the monument was erected, but Hao Tian said he had consulted his aunt, who said not to invite anyone to dinner, but to give the woman erecting the monument a pack of cigarettes instead. His aunt also asked him to compose a verse, which she would sing on stage on the night of the monument's erection as a tribute to their ancestors.

After making the call, he went to the construction site to take photos with Fan Xia's father. Xianmei hadn't come for the past few days; she was at home taking care of her mother. Her father was home last night, and she went back after watching a play. Fan Xia had already transferred the money for job hunting and giving gifts to Xianmei into her account. Xianmei had been in a particularly good mood these past few days.

Fan Xia arrived at her office and had just finished cleaning when Liu Jin came in to see her. Fan Xia told Liu Jin that she had some urgent things to do that morning and didn't have time to chat, asking him to come to her house sometime. Liu Jin sat down and didn't leave, saying that he had thought about her every moment of all these years, and since they had finally met, he should take a few minutes to say a few words.

Fan Xia said, "Just say what you want to say quickly; we can't take too long." Liu Jin then cut to the chase, saying, "You can't marry Haotian."

Seeing Liu Jin speak to her in a commanding tone, Fan Xia immediately retorted, "Whether Haotian and I marry is a matter between the two of us. How can you say that?"

"I'm only saying this because I care about you. Besides, don't you have any feelings for me at all?"

Liu Jin said, sounding like an old lover.

"You make it sound so nice, but since you left, you haven't even called me once. You have feelings? If you had feelings for me, wouldn't you contact me?"

Fan Xia questioned Liu Jin.

"I lost my freedom after leaving the village. I wanted to call you, but I couldn't!"

Liu Jin explained.

"Lost your freedom? How could you lose your freedom? Tell me."

Fan Xia was eager to know the truth.

"It's all in the past. It hurts me to think about it. Don't ask me now. I'll tell you slowly."

Just like answering anyone else, Liu Jin didn't reveal the truth.

"You're being so mysterious, like a spy. How can anyone believe you?"

Fan Xia said reproachfully.

Liu Jin retorted, "I haven't been back for so many years, I don't know anything about the village, so it's only natural that I'm cautious in my words and actions. How can you call me a spy?" "

I'm not saying you're a spy, I'm saying you seem like one. Even if you're unfamiliar with the villagers, there's no need to be so secretive! An honest person doesn't do things in secret. You weren't like this back then. You're not the same Liu Jin anymore, especially not like when you were the village militia commander and Party branch secretary."

Fan Xia laid bare her true feelings.

"Actually, I've always been cautious. If I weren't, I would have proposed to you back then,"

Liu Jin said truthfully.

"That shows you're not sincere with me. If you were, what's there to be afraid of in bringing it up?"

Fan Xia retorted.

"I'm not afraid of bringing it up, but if I bring it up but don't dare to do it, wouldn't that be the same as deceiving you?"

Liu Jin explained.

"Alright, that's enough. I have work to do, so you can leave now! I'm not worried about finding time to talk properly."

Fan Xia dismissed him.

Liu Jin immediately remembered what Zhao Yun had told him on the phone that morning, and thought Zhao Yun was indeed farsighted. So he sat in his chair without moving, completely ignoring Fan Xia's urging.

"Let's get to the point. I'm telling you seriously, if you really go to Haotian, your reputation will be ruined instantly, and you'll definitely lose your position as the head of the township women's federation."

Liu Jin quoted Zhao Yun's advice.

These words were like a needle piercing Fan Xia's sore spot. This was what she was most worried about. She had come to the office today to think carefully about how to secure her position as the head of the women's federation. She knew Zhao Yun was ruthless and wouldn't let her go unless she offered herself to him.

But that was something Haotian absolutely wouldn't allow, and something she was extremely unwilling to do. She had finally gotten rid of Zhao Yun, and she would never compromise herself and fall back into his arms.

"Who told you that? I'm asking you, before you came back, why didn't you tell anyone but Zhao Yun? Zhao Yun is the poison who ruined our relationship, don't you know that? You've actually become devoted to him, I really don't understand what you're thinking, what are you trying to do?"

Fan Xia had no choice but to bring up Zhao Yun.

"I don't have anyone else's contact information, only Zhao Yun's phone number!"

Liu Jin argued.

"That's not an excuse. If you can find Zhao Yun's phone number, you can find other people's numbers. Logically speaking, you should know my number best. You're just saying that like a child trying to fool someone."

Fan Xia exposed her.

"Zhao Yun is the township head. Back then, he dismissed my village party secretary in a fit of anger. How could I come back this time without sounding out Zhao Yun's opinion? You have to understand me."

Liu Jin found another reason.

“That’s more like it. You looked like a big, strong man back then, but I never imagined you were all talk and no action.”

Fan Xia was very dissatisfied with Liu Jin’s fear of her. She despised Liu Jin, thinking that compared to Hao Tian’s bones, he was just a pushover.

“I regret it. I’m back to make up for it. After so many years of ups and downs, I’ve changed. I’ve become bolder. I’m not afraid of anything anymore. If it were in the past, you would have asked me to leave long ago.”

Liu Jin said confidently.

“Then do you have the ability to keep my position as the head of the Women’s Federation?”

Fan Xia took the opportunity to pose a question to Liu Jin.

“Of course I can, but only if you don’t marry Hao Tian!”

Liu Jin stated clearly.

“What does marriage have to do with being the head of the Women’s Federation? Besides, I didn’t explicitly tell you that I would definitely marry Hao Tian. I can tell you, my divorce, Chang Hongyun, is a done deal!”

Fan Xia replied cleverly.

"Of course we're related. I came back because I wanted to marry you,"

Liu Jin finally said, revealing her true feelings.

"But why are you only telling me this now! Did you only decide to marry me because you heard Haotian wanted to?"

Fan Xia pressed.

"I've wanted to marry you for a long time, but I didn't dare to because you didn't intend to divorce Chang Hongyun. That's why I regret it,"

Liu Jin said sincerely.

"You want to enjoy the fruits of someone else's labor without putting in any effort? Is that appropriate?"

Fan Xia no longer concealed her relationship with Haotian. She thought that if she kept avoiding the topic, Liu Jin wouldn't give up.

Liu Jin hurriedly said, "I planted these fruits; it should be said that others are picking the fruits I planted. There should always be a first-come, first-served principle!"

"How can you say that? Is this all you've learned after all these years of ups and downs? Have you forgotten even the most basic common sense? Marriage is a matter for both parties; how can you make decisions on your own?"

Fan Xia retorted.

“I've always wanted to marry you, and I came back to win you over. What I said just now was forced out; otherwise, I wouldn't have said it so directly,”

Liu Jin explained.

“You're right! But how can you win my heart with this kind of treatment?”

Fan Xia pressed.

Liu Jin was speechless for a moment before speaking again: “I truly love you; my feelings for you are so deep!”

“I've heard those words many times before, but you hurt and disappointed me greatly afterward!”

Fan Xia vented the resentment buried deep within her heart.

“I apologize for what I did to you before, I admit it, but I think we can rekindle the feelings we had back then,”

Liu Jin said earnestly.

“Things have come to this point; it's impossible now. You've lost your credibility; nothing I say will change anything!”

Fan Xia said with a contemptuous tone.

Liu Jin hated hearing such words; he was somewhat annoyed. If there was any change in Liu Jin over the past few years, it was that he had become easily angered.

He tried to control himself, feigning a cough, and swallowed the aphrodisiac he had prepared in his pocket. He regretted his actions the previous night, feeling listless today.

Fan Xia, whose thoughts had been disrupted by Liu Jin, stopped urging him to leave. She was genuinely worried that Zhao Yun might sabotage her election as the Women's Federation director.

After taking the drug, Liu Jin leered at Fan Xia. Fan Xia felt that Liu Jin was indeed very different from before.

Previously, Liu Jin had seemed somewhat shy in her presence, giving off a very elegant vibe. Even when they were alone, he had never looked at her with such eyes. It was Hao Tian, on the other hand, who, when they were 14 and no one was around, had looked at her with such lust.

Seeing Liu Jin's strange gaze, Fan Xia quickly stood up to try and escape, but Liu Jin grabbed her.

"What are you doing? If you don't let go of me, I'll call for help!"

Fan Xia said sternly.

Afraid that Fan Xia would scream, Liu Jin quickly released her and ran to the door to block her from leaving. Fan Xia thought to herself, "What can you do to me in broad daylight?

" "You're so charming, I can't wait any longer. Just let me put it in, three minutes, only three minutes. We can reminisce about the old days, and you'll definitely remember how good I was. Age-wise, and in terms of temperament, we're the perfect match. I haven't married a woman because I've been waiting for you, I beg you!"

Liu Jin pleaded at the door, waiting for the aphrodisiac to take effect.

Seeing Liu Jin standing motionless at the door, Fan Xia thought, "Just stand there, what's the point of saying 'I love you'? I'm ignoring you. Someone will come soon, and then you'll lose your temper."

Fan Xia thought to herself as she looked out the window, hoping someone would come quickly. But suddenly she realized something was strange today; people who walked to the township government building stopped briefly and then left, as if someone was talking to them and preventing them from entering.

Thinking this, she was accidentally pulled away from her chair by Liu Jin.

Liu Jin hugged Fan Xia tightly, his erect penis pressing against her body.

Fan Xia wanted to scream, but she was afraid of losing face with Liu Jin. Fan Xia was kind-hearted, after all, she had a past relationship. She struggled as much as she could, and because of her opera training, she had developed some skills, which

allowed her to break free easily when assigned to Yongchang. But Fan Xia was, after all, a woman; her opera skills were just a facade, and they were limited in real combat. After she broke free, Liu Jin pounced on her again and immediately threw her to the ground, pinning her down.

"I'll force it in, I'll protect you, don't be afraid!"

Zhao Yun's words rang in Liu Jin's ears again, "Women become obedient once they're inside! She's your old lover, even more so, don't be fooled by her initial feigned unwillingness."

111: "Take turns fucking"

111: "Take turns fucking" Fan Xia, pinned beneath him, knew she was powerless to resist, so she changed her tone, saying, "Your spirit hasn't diminished, I'll do it properly with you, let's draw the curtains and wash down there!"

Seeing that Fan Xia was tempted, Liu Jin got off her. To be on the safe side, he stood near the door.

Fan Xia calmly walked to the windowsill, drew the curtains, then filled the water dispenser with hot water and poured it into the washbasin, telling Liu Jin to wash.

Seeing that Fan Xia didn't intend to leave, Liu Jin thought that this woman still had feelings for him, so he confidently took off his pants and showed Fan Xia his erect penis. Fan Xia fiddled with it a couple of times, praising, "You're still got it! You're amazing! You need to wash it clean, ah!"

Liu Jin felt as if he had returned to ten years ago after Fan Xia's touch. He stood in front of the washbasin and carefully washed his genitals. Fan Xia went to the door, picked up a mop, and said, "You need to wash yourself properly. Who knows what kind of woman you've been with?"

Fan Xia's words made Liu Jin wash even more diligently. As he washed, he thought of the scene last night when he had been blindly inserting Xinghua into his penis, confident that women all liked him.

Suddenly, he heard a knock at the door. Liu Jin thought someone had come in, but when he turned around, Fan Xia had already run away. "That guy's really cunning, he managed to get away,"

Liu Jin muttered to himself, pulling up his pants. He pulled back the curtains and looked outside, seeing Fan Xia had already left the compound.

"I can't let her fool me again next time. I need to find a way to get her in first, to let her taste the sweetness."

Thinking this, Xinghua's seductive image flashed before Liu Jin's eyes again. He closed the office door and strode towards Xinghua's house.

Fan Xia ran out, ignoring who was standing at the township government gate, and hurried home. She really wanted to cry.

But when she saw the stage, her heart suddenly brightened. She had to stand tall and fight these guys. Tears wouldn't solve anything. Living in this society, if she really fought them, they couldn't do anything. To avoid seeing more people, she took the main street in front of her mother's house and circled around to the main road in the east of the village.

A man came out of the small restaurant ahead; it was Niu Li. Niu Li walked slowly forward. When Fan Xia reached him, he stopped and said, "Xiaxia, your singing was truly excellent! Absolutely brilliant, absolutely brilliant!"

He then held up a thumbs-up in front of Fan Xia's eyes.

Fan Xia smiled but didn't say anything. She noticed

that Niu Li had been drinking. "Look at my Xinghua, she won't even let me praise you. She's a real slut, afraid I'll be with her. With my looks, tell me, Xiaxia, do you think you'd even look at me?"

Niu Li followed closely behind Fan Xia, saying.

"Uncle Niu, you've been drinking. Go home! Don't say such things in the street."

Seeing that he was talking crudely, Fan Xia stopped and gave him a few words of advice before quickly leaving, afraid he would say something even more inappropriate.

“I did drink,”

Niu Li continued, following closely behind Fan Xia. “You’re the director of the Women’s Federation, that’s why I’m telling you. Can you believe she’s human? As soon as she fell asleep, she started making a ruckus in the same bed with Liu Jin. If she was going to make a ruckus, she could at least be a little quieter! It kept me awake all night. Isn’t that outrageous?”

Fan Xia quickened her pace to go home, and Niu Li didn’t fall behind, continuing, “That slut, she’s not my daughter. Her mother sold her body to raise this bastard. Her husband’s gone, and she wanted me to sleep with her. When I refused, she said she wanted to support you. Do you think she’s even human? She caught Liu Jin and didn’t even try to hide it from me. She was really rough with her!”

"If you keep talking like that, I'll get angry. I'm only taking it as drunken talk; otherwise, I really wouldn't let you get away with it!"

Fan Xia said, turning back as she walked away. She then pulled out her phone and urgently called Hao Tian, saying, "Hao Tian, where are you? Come to the east wall of our yard right now!"

While Fan Xia was on the phone, Niu Li rushed over and touched Fan Xia's buttocks.

Just then, Zhang Huan came out from the path behind Fan Xia's house. He saw Niu Li touching Fan Xia's buttocks and pounced on her, slapping him twice across the face.

"Why are you hitting me? What did I do to you?"

Niu Li asked Zhang Huan

, tilting his head. "You've been acting like a hooligan in broad daylight! What are you waiting for?"

Zhang Huan shouted at Niu Li.

Fan Xia saw it was Zhang Huan but pretended not to see him and quickly went home. Hao Tian happened to run into Fan Xia at the corner and anxiously asked, "What's wrong?" Fan Xia didn't answer and went home. Zhang Huan and Niu Li were seen facing each other, hurling insults like roosters fighting.

"I was just reporting a problem to the Women's Federation director, how can you accuse me of being a hooligan? What right did you have to hit me!"

Niu Li argued with Zhang Huan.

"You ran up and touched her butt, and I heard the filthy things you said. Is that what you call reporting a problem?"

Zhang Huan argued.

"Were you being a hooligan? If not, why did you scare my aunt like that?"

Hao Tian glared at Niu Li and questioned him.

Zhang Huan said to Hao Tian, "I was walking over here when I saw him run up and touch her. Even if I didn't slap him twice, he still wanted to touch her, right when Fan Xia was on the phone with you."

"How am I being a hooligan? She was walking ahead, and I followed behind and asked her a few questions. She acted like she didn't hear me and started making a phone call instead. I went up and patted her on the back. Is that being a hooligan? I first praised her singing, and then she cursed my daughter. What did I do?"

Niu Li still argued with Zhang Huan.

"You old beast, you still won't admit it. I think you want me to slap you twice!"

Zhang Huan said, making a slapping motion again.

"Whether it's harassment or not, we'll find out by asking Fan Xia. You dare say you're not harassing her?"

Hao Tian's tone became even harsher. Niu Li was speechless after Hao Tian's words, and Zhang Huan walked north.

After Zhang Huan left, Niu Li said to Hao Tian, "I was talking to the Women's Federation director about that slut in my family! She won't let me support other women, only her—she's a real slut—she falls for every man she sees—she's a slut—as soon as she falls asleep at night, she's glued to Liu Jin—I didn't get a good night's sleep—she's a slut!"

Fueled by alcohol, Niu Li started cursing his daughter at Hao Tian again.

"Why did you suddenly decide to drink this morning? Is something really bothering you? You only have one daughter, you should be quite close to her, so why are you cursing her? Does she really treat you badly?"

Hao Tian didn't realize that Niu Li's "support" referred to "marrying her," so he said this.

"Good? Good my ass, good my ass! She doesn't just love me to death, she loves anyone's ass, she's a born slut who loves to be fucked, she can never get enough of being fucked! I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, she's not my daughter, she's a bastard, she's a whore!"

Niu Li got more and more excited as he spoke.

Haotian finally understood what Niu Li meant and thought he couldn't ask any more questions, so he said, "I'll take you home. Don't go around saying things like that on the street! If your words reach your daughter's ears, she'll really reject you! What kind of old man are you?"

Hearing Haotian's words, Niu Li turned and left. Haotian followed him, watching where he went. After following him for a while, seeing that he was heading towards his daughter's house, he stopped, only watching him enter his daughter's yard.

Once inside, Niu Li didn't say a word. He went back to the main house; the door was unlocked, but his daughter wasn't there. He went to the small storage room on the west side, pushed open the door, and seeing it locked, pulled and pushed it open forcefully.

"You two haven't had enough at night, and now you're doing it again in broad daylight while I'm not here, you bastards!"

Niu Li cursed from the doorway. Liu Jin quickly pulled out her clothes, put them in her pants, and fastened her belt.

"You old rascal, why didn't you come back sooner or later? I'm practically half-dead, and you're back looking for death?"

Xinghua muttered under her breath, then added, "Wait a minute, wash your old man, then we'll take turns fucking him!"

Niu Li didn't say anything more, and went to the main room to wash his manhood.

"Go ahead and fuck him, don't be afraid of this old beast, he could fuck him every day and still not get enough!"

Xinghua shamelessly said to Liu Jin.

Liu Jin had taken the aphrodisiac, and his penis was rock hard. Seeing Xinghua telling him to continue, he didn't think much of it, only that the father and son were both lecherous. So he unbuckled his belt, took out his hard penis, and started thrusting it in again.

Niu Li hadn't actually drunk much, just felt a burning sensation in his throat. A person's behavior after drinking reveals their true nature; most people are prone to promiscuity after drinking, and Niu Li's lewdness was even more pronounced. After washing his genitals, he went out and locked the door, clearly showing that he was using alcohol to fuel his lust.

Xinghua is a typical example of promiscuity. Having lost her mother at a young age and being pampered by her maternal grandparents, this was certainly a significant factor in her casual behavior. However, the underlying reason was the customs of the village where her grandmother lived.

"Dayaowan, near Hongshan, girls marry men without a care. Nine out of ten girls are frivolous, and the last one is unwanted."

This is a widely circulated local saying, succinctly summarizing the casual attitudes of young women there towards relationships.

Xinghua, perhaps due to her grandmother's excessive pampering, stood out more than other girls. She said that when she was 18, Xinghua was seduced by a neighbor in his forties next door. So, when she turned 18, her grandparents began asking people to find her a husband.

In the mountains, families demanded a high dowry for their daughters. Her grandparents had worked hard to raise their niece, so asking for a higher dowry was reasonable. Finding a wealthy family would ensure a larger dowry and a better life for their niece after marriage.

After finding Miao Feng, Xinghua was very satisfied. However, while her in-laws were alive, they were very strict and kept a close watch on her, preventing her from having any contact with the men in the village. The villagers also dared not even consider seducing Xinghua.

But after having an affair with her father, whom she hadn't seen for 18 years and who claimed not to be her biological father, Xinghua initially went to the back mountain for a few days every two or three years. Her father would bring her beef, mutton, and oat flour every winter.

At 29, Xinghua went to the back mountain again. One day, her stepmother caught her red-handed, and she and her father nearly beat her to death. After being beaten, her stepmother endured the abuse silently, not daring to make a fuss, but harboring resentment. She fell ill from the anger and died two or three years later.

Back in Guyang Village, Miao Feng, who already knew the truth, turned a blind eye, allowing the father and son to act with complete impunity. Xinghua's son was also aware of the family's promiscuity and worked away from home year-round, rarely returning.

Starting last year, Miao Feng also went to work elsewhere, and the father and son became even more unrestrained than a married couple. Therefore, Niu Li was very dissatisfied with Xinghua's close relationship with her cousin Liu Jin without any regard for him, but he dared not speak out. Although he was rough, he was, after all, living under someone else's roof, and deep down he was still afraid of Xinghua. 112:

"Who

doesn't want to see?" Zhang Huan secretly cared for Fan Xia, and Fan Xia vaguely knew about it, but they didn't greet each other when they met alone.

Fan Xia once resented Zhang Huan very much, believing that he had ruined her youth.

Zhang Huan was often tormented by his conscience; he should be considered a good person. He admitted that he had done wrong and was willing to correct his mistakes. He didn't shamelessly pursue Fan Xia because he had seduced her years ago, but always secretly cared for her and was willing to do his best for her.

Fan Xia's life had been going smoothly, which made Zhang Huan happy. Although Fan Xia later became Liu Jin's lover and then possessed Zhao Yun, Zhang Huan always spoke well of her in front of others. Whenever he heard someone speak ill of her, he would subtly refute them. He was a respected figure in the village, and his words played a significant role in protecting Fan Xia's reputation.

He had just spent some time at the construction site of Haotian's new house and planned to stroll around the theater from behind Fan Xia's house.

Zhang Huan owned a plot of land in the east of the village, and whenever he went to his land, he would always walk past Fan Xia's yard or behind her house. Actually, the shortcut wouldn't require passing through there.

Perhaps this is what they call "love me, love my dog"—he felt comfortable seeing Fan Xia's house. He was used to walking this path and always wanted to take it, even if it meant walking a few extra steps.

Walking past Fan Xia's yard or behind her house naturally increased his chances of encountering her, and for Zhang Huan, seeing Fan Xia even a little longer was the most pleasing thing.

As if by unspoken agreement, when Zhang Huan and Fan Xia met alone, Zhang Huan would only steal a glance without speaking.

The reason, of course, lay with Fan Xia, but it was also related to Zhang Huan's self-respect. Back when Fan Xia was pregnant with Changyu, they had met on the street once, and Zhang Huan eagerly asked Fan Xia where she was going. Fan Xia, her eyes fixed ahead, seemed not to see or hear him, ignoring his question.

From then on, when Zhang Huan saw Fan Xia alone, he never asked again. When they met in front of others, he would only look at Fan Xia with respect, and only if she looked at him with respect would he ask. Thus, this peculiar phenomenon, unknown to anyone, existed between the two of them. This peculiar phenomenon revealed the special relationship between them.

Today, Fan Xia didn't speak to Zhang Huan because she was in a hurry to avoid Niu Li, and in that situation, she didn't know how to talk to him. Because even when they usually spoke, it was always in a very casual way.

In Fan Xia's heart, Zhang Huan was her son Changyu's biological father, which made her view him differently from others. Fan Xia had thought about how much trouble it would cause her if Zhang Huan relentlessly pursued her, but he never did; he remained remarkably reserved.

Because she hadn't answered his question that time, Zhang Huan only secretly glanced at her when they met alone, and he had maintained this practice for so many years without breaking it, which Fan Xia greatly admired.

Her son was his offspring, and she hoped he would inherit his father's sense of pride. As time passed, her resentment towards Zhang Huan lessened. However, their established habit of not speaking when they met alone remained unchanged, and could not be changed.

Fan Xia had a conscience; Zhang Huan had seduced her, not raped her. At that time, she had consented under his influence, and this was a fact she couldn't speak against her conscience. If she hadn't become pregnant with his child, she wouldn't have resented him. Her resentment mainly stemmed from his deception. When she told him she was afraid of getting pregnant, he said pregnancy wasn't easy and she definitely wouldn't conceive.

So after he ejaculated inside her, she wasn't worried about getting pregnant at all. But her worst fears came true; she got pregnant. The pregnancy was a huge blow to her, making her very insecure when looking for a partner. If she hadn't been pregnant, she would never have dated a "stupid guy" like Chang Hongyun; she could have chosen freely. This was the main reason Fan Xia once resented Zhang Huan so much.

Zhang Huan had originally planned to stroll around the theater and chat with people, but after slapping Niu Li twice, he changed his mind. He remembered Liu Yi from the orchard.

As soon as he entered the orchard, he told Liu Yi, "I slapped Niu Li, the dog, twice."

Liu Yi was standing under a fruit tree and asked him with a smile, "Why?"

"That bastard, he's such a lecherous old man. He drank two cups of cat pee, followed behind Fan Xia, and when she wasn't paying attention while making a phone call, he went up and touched her butt. I happened to see it, so I slapped him twice. The shameless bastard even asked me why I hit him. I said, 'You've been acting like a hooligan in broad daylight, what else am I supposed to do but hit you?'"

Zhang Huan said.

"A person is a person, and a lecherous old man is a lecherous old man. He saw that Fan Xia was pretty, and he was so eager to get her, so he started hitting her?"

Liu Yi said, handing Zhang Huan a cigarette.

"Seeing someone is one thing, but what man doesn't want to see someone? But you can't just make advances and try to take advantage of them! — Ge Pao not only raised his daughter, but he's also scheming against Fan Xia! He's like a toad trying to eat swan meat!"

Zhang Huan cursed Niu Li again.

"Sigh, there are all sorts of people out there. We wouldn't even dare to think about it. Scheming against Fan Xia would be foolish enough, but with a daughter, he'd be like an animal. We can't possibly raise a daughter, even if she's not his biological child! Besides, how can he say she's not his? She doesn't look much like him, but if she's not his, whose is she?"

Liu Yi said, taking a drag on her cigarette.

"Xinghua's son looks just like Niu Li! Don't you think he's Ge Pao's son!"

Zhang Huan became even more serious.

"No way, even if we're talking about raising him, it's only been a few years. It's impossible that he was raised right after she got married, right? His son looks like Niu Li, maybe it's hereditary. People often say 'raising a son benefits from his maternal uncle,' so it's possible he inherited it from his maternal grandfather."

Liu Yi denied Zhang Huan's statement.

"If his nephew isn't his son, then his daughter must be his biological daughter. No matter what, that guy is a real stubborn mule!"

Zhang Huan cursed fiercely.

"I think it's impossible that she's not his biological daughter. But the father is right, the daughter is right, are they really both stubborn mules? Stop talking, it gives me goosebumps."

Liu Yi shook her head as she spoke.

“There are so many strange things happening in our village. When I was the village head, a cobbler often came by. He knew a bit about feng shui. I heard him tell people, ‘Your village has strong feng shui.’ I asked him what he meant, and the cobbler said that our village is called ‘Guyang Village,’ but it’s actually ‘Ghosts and Demons Live Here.’ I said he was just spouting nonsense, but the cobbler said he wasn’t. He said that Guyang Village has mountains in front and rivers behind, making it a feng shui treasure land. Demons and monsters love feng shui treasure lands. Look how many pretty girls there are! That girl named Fan Xia, if she wasn’t possessed by a demon, how could she be so alluring?”

Zhang Huan said this to Liu Yi, whether to excuse his behavior back then or to scold Niu Li.

"The cobbler came to my place several times, and every time he came he would say the same things. I think that guy was trying to use those words as a pretext to talk about Fan Xia. He even smacked his lips when he talked about it. I think the cobbler is a scoundrel! He's been dead for two or three years. If he were alive, he would come to see this opera performance even if he had to use his cane,"

Liu Yi recalled.

"Of course! Fan Xia can sing, she's a natural. One of the three opera singers who ate at our house was a clapper player. That clapper player said that there are very few female roles as good as Fan Xia nowadays. She would definitely be popular if she went to their provincial Jin Opera Troupe,"

Zhang Huan said, always praising Fan Xia.

"How could they not welcome her? She sings so well! To be honest, the actress playing Jinzhi in this troupe sings just okay, not bad, not bad, but how can she compete with Fan Xia? Fan Xia has a better voice, and she sings the turns so well. I've listened to a lot of operas, and I've rarely heard anyone turn so naturally. Many singers seem awkward and forced when they reach those turns. Last night when I heard Jinzhi sing, her turns were pretty good, but they weren't as smooth and fluid as Fan Xia's."

Liu Yi became more and more enthusiastic as she talked about Fan Xia's singing, praising her more and more eloquently.

“I didn’t see where you were sitting last night. It was interesting watching the play with you. You not only understand the content of the play, but you can also explain in detail who sang well and who sang poorly, and why they were good and why they were bad.”

Zhang Huan was afraid that praising Fan Xia too much would arouse Liu Yi’s suspicion. This was his consistent principle in praising Fan Xia: always know when to stop. So he turned to praising Liu Yi.

"I won't say it, but yesterday I happened to run into Niu Li and his son. I'd only heard about them before, but I saw it with my own eyes last night. They were really shameless, not at all discreet. The father and son had a stool, and at first they took turns sitting on it. Later, Niu Li sat behind them, and Xinghua sat behind them. Not only were they sitting very close together, but Xinghua was also rubbing her feet and urging me to move. Niu Li kept praising Fan Xia's singing to me, and Xinghua suddenly started scolding her father, 'I know! I know! You don't need to keep praising her like that!' They have no manners. We say that even if villagers talk casually, they should consider the occasion. But that Xinghua is really shameless, she doesn't care about the consequences at all! The cobbler said that strange things happen in our village, and what happened between Niu Li and Xinghua is really strange enough!"

Liu Yi mocked Xinghua and her son.

"Really? Have you heard? In Xiliang, on Wednesday, the daughter-in-law went to the county town to accompany her child to school, and ended up running off with someone. Later, the wife went to accompany her grandson to school, and she also ran off with someone. Isn't that strange? I heard it from Teacher Du the day before yesterday. Xiliang has less than 500 people, and they've had their share of strange things. Our village has over 1,000 people, how can we not have some strange things?"

Zhang Huan said.

"I've heard about it. There used to be a book called 'Strange Tales of the Past and Present,' which now describes the strange and unusual things that happen in our three villages in Guyang Administrative Village. It could be a book of 'Strange Tales of the Past and Present' too. Strange things have happened in the village before, but it seems like there are many more now than before,"

Liu Yi sighed.

"Now that we're free, there are fewer restrictions on what we say and do, so it's certain that there are more strange things happening than before. —Have you seen Liu Jin? I wonder where that person has been wandering around for so many years?"

Zhang Huan changed the subject.

“If people don’t tell, who will know? Eventually, people will find out. I heard Liu Jin isn’t leaving again this time. Some even say he’s back to marry Fan Xia. I don’t know who in the village tipped him off, maybe Xinghua? Xinghua is Liu Jin’s cousin,”

Liu Yi said.

“If people don’t tell, who will know? Someone in the know must have told him. Otherwise, why would he come back so soon? Chang Hongyun is divorcing Fan Xia, and he just happened to come back,”

Zhang Huan said.

“Do you think Fan Xia prefers Liu Jin or Haotian?”

Liu Yi asked.

“She definitely prefers Haotian. If she didn’t, she wouldn’t have divorced Chang Hongyun. They haven’t divorced after all these years, and now she’s in her forties, it’s obvious. Haotian is a good young man, but he’s too young. The woman is so much older than the man, it’s a problem for me to think about it,”

Zhang Huan said.

“Age is indeed a problem, but Fan Xia is outstanding and looks young, so she should be fine for at least another ten or eight years,”

Liu Yi said.

“It all depends on whether Fan Xia can still have children. If she can have a child, things will be fine; if she can’t, there will always be problems,”

Zhang Huan said.

“Fan Xia is supposed to be reliable, but she needs to be sure what kind of person Hao Tian is, whether he's trustworthy or not. Once she's sure, it means Hao Tian is trustworthy. Hao Tian came to see me once, and I think he's alright. We're not good at judging people, but the first impression was good; he's not a scoundrel,”

Liu Yi said.

“He's not a scoundrel, but in this day and age, it's rare to find a young person with wealthy parents who isn't a bit of a playboy. You could say Fan Xia is reliable, but it depends on whether she can accurately assess what kind of person Hao Tian is. Besides, even if things seem good now, who knows when things will change? People change so much in this society. Take Zhou San's wife from Xiliang, for example—who would have thought that she would change her mind and run off with someone else after having a grandson?”

Zhang Huan said.

“I think Fan Xia can still have children. They used to say that at 45, you'd have a baby, but she's just over 40 and looks so young. I think having one shouldn't be a problem. You know, people change so much; you really can't predict it. In many cases, even you can't predict it yourself. We can only judge based on the current situation,”

Liu Yi said.
