Looking at the other person's peaceful sleeping face, An Nian felt somewhat embarrassed.

"I'm not taking advantage of you, this is all to cure you. Your body is full of spiritual power, but if you can't absorb it, you can only be solidified into its container.

Without me, your final end would be death. "

Feeling the familiar numbness, An Nian couldn't help but gently touched the man's thick palm with her fingertips, unconsciously tracing circles on it.

"A strange thing was punched into your spine, and that thing is constantly emitting spiritual power. As time goes by, all this spiritual power enters your body.

That is to say, you have a special physique, otherwise you would have exploded and died at that time, and it would be impossible to leave a whole body behind.

Your family has given me a place to live, and you are a very good person.Don't worry, I will cure you. "

Having said this, An Nian paused and his cheeks turned slightly red.

"These spiritual powers are useful to me, but they are only harmful to you. I am saving you, not trying to eat you."

She lowered her head and whispered into the man's ear. Her withered hair fell from her temples and rested on the side of her face. Her thin face seemed to be the size of a palm, her jawline was clear and sharp, and her nose was small and straight, against the light. There is an astonishing beauty in the profile.

Li Youmei, who walked across the threshold with a straight face, was a little stunned, muttering to herself, why didn't she realize that An Nian was so good-looking before?Much prettier than the An Qian she initially liked!

This thought passed away in a flash. Li Youmei walked to the table and greeted An Nian with a smile.

"Nian Nian, come and eat noodles. Mom made you an egg and added a lot of braised pork."

An Nian came over and took the bowl, with a sweet smile on his face: "Thank you, Mom."

"Don't be polite to Mom, sit down and eat quickly."

As Li Youmei said this, she had already walked to the bed and found that An Nian had turned her son over. The smile on her face suddenly became more kind.

-

After she was eight years old, An Nian no longer had the image of eating fine grains in her memory. She was always the last one to be served in the An family.

Whole grains and porridge are her three meals a day, oh, and usually only two meals a day.

Sometimes, An Nian was so hungry that she had no choice but to go to the kitchen and drink cold water by herself. When her stomach was bloated, she went straight to bed.

Picking up a handful of noodles and eating them into his mouth, An Nian narrowed his eyes with satisfaction.

Li Youmei sat back next to her: "Eat slowly. If it's not enough, mom will cook it for you."

An Nian raised his head and smiled at her, then continued eating noodles.

"Don't just eat noodles, try the eggs. Mom fried them in oil, they are delicious. Then take a bite of the braised pork. This is Master Wang's specialty and is loved by people from all over the country."

"Yeah!" An Nian took a bite of the egg.

The poached eggs are charred on the outside and tender on the inside. The whole yolk is wrapped in the burnt yellow egg white. You can still taste the runny yolk when you bite it. It is a runny egg.

The braised pork is also very delicious, with a glutinous texture, and the soup is full of everything from the pork skin to the fat meat, and the taste is very rich.The lean meat is also very tender, not overly cooked with residue, but with a tender texture.

An Nian had never eaten such delicious braised pork, and his eyes lit up.

"Delicious, right?"

Li Youmei's eyes widened with a smile when she saw that she was enjoying the meal.

"Our family has a running banquet. After everyone has finished eating, the rest can be put away. If you like to eat, mom will keep all the braised pork for you."

In the 80s, it was not popular to hold running-water banquets and distribute the leftover meals to the villagers. Those were all kept by the host family.These are rare oils and water. If you save some, you can eat them for a long time.

"Thank you, Mom." An Nian smiled happily knowing that there would be such delicious food later.

She had absorbed a lot of spiritual power before, and she felt a lot more energetic, but the feeling of fullness brought by the spiritual power was far less than the satisfaction of food.

After An Nian finished eating the noodles, the wedding banquet outside had not yet ended. Li Youmei suggested that she go out for a toast, and An Nian did not refuse.

So, after watching a bride-changing show and having a good meal, the villagers of Lu'an Village met the real bride.

They felt An Nian was strange to them. Most of them had only seen An Nian working hard in An's family's fields from a distance.

When not working, An Nian rarely goes out.

Today I suddenly saw An Nian coming to toast in a wedding dress. Many people stared at her with wide eyes.

When the toast arrived at a table, a very kind-looking aunt stuffed a red envelope into An Nian's hand, pulled her and said.

"Girl An, you better go out for a walk more often. You look so pale, it's too unhealthy."

Everyone has to work in the fields. How can An Nian from the An family be so white? !

"This is your Aunt Lanhua. Her daughter is about the same age as you. She married the accountant from the next village last year." Li Youmei followed An Nian and introduced her.

An Nian raised the wine bowl in his hand, smiled and nodded: "Thank you Aunt Lanhua, I will go out more often in the future."

"Oh, okay, okay." Aunt Lanhua looked surprised and clinked the cup with her.

When An Nian walked away, she heard Aunt Lanhua and others at the table saying, "An Nian speaks quite normally. Why did the An family say she was a fool before?"

"What else could it be for? I just want everyone to stay away from her so that I can abuse her. Didn't you see that the An family lets a little girl do all the hard work?"

"Tsk, tsk, the An family is so cruel."

"Don't mention it. I heard that An Nian is good at farming. The An family has had good harvests for so many years. The yield per mu is [-]% more than other families in the village every year. It's all thanks to her."

An Nian followed Li Youmei around and got to know everyone who came over for the wedding banquet.

After the toast, the wedding banquet came to an end, and everyone except the cooks gradually dispersed.

Li Youmei took An Nian to look around Yu's home, hoping to get her familiar with it as soon as possible.

Yu's house is a brick house built with the subsidies sent back by Lu Yuan a few years ago.

Rural areas lack everything except land, and everyone has a large piece of homestead land.

The Yu family has not been separated yet. The two generations starting from Yu Zhengjun live together, a total of five people. The homestead is divided into many families. Currently, only half of it has been built, and the area is already more than [-] square meters.

The house is a typical southern structure, with long corridors connecting each room.The main room is in the center, and the hall is at the entrance, with two rooms on each side. The other rooms are built along the corridor, basically in an "L" shape.

The door of each room faces the corridor, so entry and exit does not affect other people and is relatively free. Even if the door is open, there is no privacy.

The location where the L-shaped circle comes out is the courtyard, but there is no courtyard wall. It is basically open. The floor of the courtyard has been plastered with cement so that your feet will not be covered with mud.

Normally, this yard is used for drying grains. When drying is no longer possible, they go to the big drying field in the village.

Every household in Lu'an Village basically has this structure. More than a dozen households are connected in one place, with interconnected yards, and it's very lively with children running around.

Of course, in the Yu family's row, except for the Yu family's brick house, the other houses are still relatively old blue brick houses, and there are even mud houses.

"Nian Nian, which room do you want to live in?"

Li Youmei asked with a smile. In her heart, she hoped that An Nian would choose the room on the far side of the road, but she would not be angry if An Nian chose another room.

An Nian thought about it and realized that there were three remaining rooms in the Yu family. They were all in different locations. They should be prepared for the second generation to get married and have children.

Her best choice is Yu Luyuan's side.

"Mom, I'll choose the one next to my eldest brother. It will make it easier to take care of him."

"Okay." How could Li Youmei refuse to agree? She nodded repeatedly and said, "Mom will make your bed right now."

An Nian hurriedly followed her: "Mom, I can do it myself."

Li Youmei returned to her room and took out the quilt she had just made last year from the cabinet. It was originally prepared for the boss's wedding, but now it is just right for An Nian to sleep on.

Holding the quilt, she avoided An Nian and went to the room she had just chosen.

"It's okay, Nian Nian, just take a rest. Mom will be fine in a moment."

She made the bed neatly without asking An Nian for help, and folded the new quilt neatly.

"Mom will ask your dad to bring a cabinet over later so you can put your things in it."

After making the bed, the two brought two bamboo chairs and a table from Yu Luyuan's house.

Then hang the curtains and the room is ready.

An Nian was very happy to have her own room.

While the two of them were busy, the kitchen helpers also cleaned the house, and the tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans from each house were taken home, making Yu's house instantly empty.

Li Youmei saw that her man was empty, so she asked him to move the chest of drawers. Together with An Nian and three others, they finally finished the chest.

After everything was done, Li Youmei wiped her forehead, frowned and looked at the road outside.

"Why hasn't Yuejin come back yet? Zhengjun, how long have they been gone?"

Yu Zhengjun wiped his face with a towel and frowned when he heard this: "It's been at least an hour."

"It only takes a quarter of an hour to walk from our home to An's home, right? Why did it take them so long?" The more Li Youmei thought about it, the more wrong she became, "No, I have to go and have a look!"

"Mom, let me go with you." An Nian hurriedly caught up. "I still have things to settle down with."

She was being helped by Zhang Xiujuan to get married today, and she didn't bring anything except the clothes on her body. She didn't want to take advantage of the An family.

"Sure! With mom here, you don't have to be afraid of anything!"

Li Youmei patted her chest, thinking that she would have to support her later.

-

When An Nian and Li Youmei arrived at An's house, they saw a group of dirty young men standing in the yard of An's house, with a sewing machine covered in mud and water being protected in the middle.

"Aunt Zhang, I'm too lazy to argue with you about the sewing machine. Please give me the 300 yuan!"

Yu Yuejin came in high spirits, thinking that the matter would be simple and he could just leave after taking the bride price and a sewing machine.I never thought that the An family was really shameless. They locked the front door and let An Daqing enter through the back door. They carried the sewing machine to the back hill and buried it.

They were a group of young men who were too embarrassed to do anything to Zhang Xiujuan and An Qian who were blocking the door. They were in a stalemate for a while. They were really impatient and forced their way in, but they couldn't find the sewing machine...

Finally, a sharp-eyed young man found the trace, and they spent a long time in the cave at the back of the mountain.

It took so long that everyone was exhausted.

Zhang Xiujuan, with her hands on her hips, looked reluctant: "We also bought a lot of dowry, right? Qianqian? Mom bought you a lot of things..."

It's just that these things were not brought to An Nian's home.

What Zhang Xiujuan is best at is confusing right and wrong, and speaking only half the words.

On the surface, An Qian seemed to have been forcibly pulled by her mother to block the door. She looked at Yu Yuejin and others with an apology in her eyes.

In fact, she is the same as Zhang Xiujuan in her heart.

An Qian's heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached when she took out the things that had been put into her pockets.

But then I thought about it, after she went to Beijing Normal University and married the future richest man in the country, wouldn't she get whatever she wanted? !It doesn't hurt to let this petty profit go out now.

So, holding back her heartache, An Qian leaned into her mother's ear and said, "Mom, please return the money to them quickly. When I go to college, I will have plenty of money!"

"It's easy for you to say!" Zhang Xiujuan rolled her eyes, "You have to study for four years in college. And you are so old, you will definitely get married after you finish studying. You are from someone else's family, and you will give money to I?!"

An Qian choked on her, and was filled with impatience with this short-sighted woman.

"Mom! I can make money when I go to college! I can work as a translator or do part-time jobs! There are plenty of opportunities to make money in Beijing! Come up with the money."

Seeing that the eyes of Yu Yuejin and others were getting worse and worse, and the village chief was already behind the crowd, An Qian was a little anxious.

These days, universities require a certificate. If the village chief writes a few words for her, she will not be able to successfully enroll!

Village chief Liu Jianshe had already approached the crowd, and when he heard them whispering nonsense to each other, his brows immediately furrowed.

He pushed through the crowd and came to the front: "What's going on? I just went to the commune for a meeting, and Zhang Xiujuan, you made trouble again?"

Zhang Xiujuan's reputation in the village was not very good. She often quarreled with her neighbors. Liu Jianshe had a headache when he saw her.

Zhang Xiujuan avoided his sight with a guilty conscience: "Village Chief, I didn't do anything..."

Yu Yuejin's eyes lit up when he saw Liu Jianshe, and he quickly stepped forward and explained the matter in a few words.

Liu Jianshe's face was livid, and he stared at the An family: "Look at what you have done?! Only An, the boss of your family, is more reliable, and everyone else is..."

Not wanting to say anything more unpleasant, Liu Jianshe stopped speaking abruptly and just said: "Zhang Xiujuan, please take out the money quickly!"

Zhang Xiujuan was very frightened. This was the first time she had seen the village chief get so angry.

"Village chief...I...I have no money..."

"Where did the money go?!"

Zhang Xiujuan's eyes flickered: "I, I, I spent it."

The village chief felt his eyes darken: "300 yuan! It's only been half a month and you've spent it all?!"

"Um……"

"Where did the flowers go?!" the village chief asked, and the other villagers pricked up their ears.

Zhang Xiujuan secretly looked at her man.

An Jiandang, who had been hiding behind the woman and letting Zhang Xiujuan charge into the battle, saw that the situation was not good and had to stand up.

"Village chief, something happened at my mother-in-law's house some time ago. We lent them all the money. So we won't be able to get it out for a while..."

The second elder of the An family, who originally wanted to help, immediately shut his mouth and looked evilly when he heard this.

They didn't lose a penny of their relationship, and they were all sent to their parents' home by the daughter-in-law here? !

The An family, which was originally not united, fell apart in an instant.

An Jiandang didn't notice the emotional change of the two elders. He had already seen An Nian coming here. His eyes suddenly lit up and he took a few steps towards her.

"Nian Nian! You know, my uncle has always loved you the most. Can you let your husband's family go back first? When my uncle has money, he will definitely put together your bride price."

Seeing An Nian coming, Zhang Xiujuan was also excited and immediately helped.

"Yes, Niannian, you have been eating and drinking at our house for free for so many years, and my aunt and uncle have never collected a penny."

Anyway, An Nian is a fool and is easy to fool.
