Chapter 892: Resentment
As the saying goes, people are shaped by the land and water they live in. Most people may never leave their county in their entire lives. This is especially true for the villagers of Shuangshui Village in Yuanxi County after the founding of the People's Republic of China. After all, this was a special era when a letter of introduction was required to go out, and there were rarely any spontaneous large-scale population migrations like before the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The world that Suning lives in this time is "The Ordinary World", which won the Mao Dun Literature Award. In fact, Suning does not like the ordinariness described in "The Ordinary World" very much. The male protagonist who is touted as a great man has no special skills. He has to stumble and overcome all obstacles to build a brick factory. You must know that brick-making technology is not high-tech like chips, but the male protagonist is still very sloppy and has not fully understood the simple technology. Therefore, Suning thinks that the male protagonist Sun Shaoan is a person who is praised by others but has high expectations but low skills. You must know that Zhou Bingkun in "The World" went to the hotel to work for free in advance to gain experience in order to enter the catering industry.

It's a pity that Sun Ning has now inherited everything from the male protagonist Sun Shaoan in "Ordinary World". First of all, there is his honest father Sun Yuhou who is used to working hard, then there is his treacherous and sinister second father Sun Yuting and second mother, then there is his sister Sun Lanhua and brother-in-law Wang Manyin, his younger brother Sun Shaoping and his younger sister Sun Lanxiang. These people have become his relatives and responsibilities.

In this land of northern Shaanxi which was still in the 1975 era, there was not much Suning could do. After all, the so-called general environment was there. Even if Suning had amazing abilities, it had to hide them. You must know that Suning's cheap brother-in-law Wang Manyin had just been sentenced to reeducation through labor for selling rat poison, which naturally extinguished Suning's idea and confidence to start a business on the Loess Plateau immediately.

As for taking the so-called college entrance examination in two or three years, he was not very interested in going to university. After all, such experience had made Suning a little bored, and he had no way to enter the official career he had dreamed of. So Suning was still planning to leave here as soon as possible after dealing with the affairs of the Sun family, simply because there was not much nutrients here for Suning to grow quickly.

Just as Su Ning was sitting on the plateau, gazing at the unique scenery of northern Shaanxi and pondering his own fate, he saw his adoptive father, Sun Yuhou, and sister, Sun Lanhua, approaching anxiously. Seeing Su Ning sitting so leisurely on the plateau, Sun Yuhou angrily asked, "Shao'an, why are you still sitting here so leisurely? Your brother-in-law was arrested and sent to a labor camp for selling rat poison."

"I know about this." Su Ning responded calmly, as if it was an insignificant matter.

"What? You know, then why don't you go and save him quickly?" Seeing that his son was so indifferent and calm, Sun Yuhou immediately widened his eyes in surprise.

"Save him? You think too highly of me, don't you?"

"Shaoan, I know that you and Tian Runye are a couple, and her uncle Tian Fujun is a senior leader in our Yuanxi County. You should go out and ask Tian Runye for help from County Magistrate Tian!" Sun Lanhua, who had been silent at the side, naturally noticed Su Ning's abnormality, but when she thought of her husband who was still serving a labor camp sentence, she had to look at her brother in front of her with a pleading face.

"Sister, considering that Tian Runye and I have a private relationship, is it appropriate for me to go and ask her and her uncle for help now?" Su Ning did not directly refuse or agree. Instead, he looked at Sun Lanhua in front of him and asked back.

"Ah?" Sure enough, both Sun Lanhua and Sun Yuhou, father and daughter, were stunned by the question.

"Also, even if I shamelessly ran over, they still gave me the face to release my brother-in-law. Have you ever thought about what will happen next?"

"what?"

"Shaoan, what exactly are you thinking? Why don't you just say it directly?" At this time, the honest Sun Yuhou also heard the hidden meaning in Su Ning's words, and then looked at the weird son in front of him and asked directly.

"Sister, I know a friend in the south. Their factory needs some temporary workers, so I want to take you to the south to work as temporary workers." At this time, Suning immediately started to tempt "out of nothing", feeling that it would be best for the whole family to move to Hong Kong, and Suning definitely has the ability to do so now.

"Ah? The South? What kind of factory can hire workers casually? And we don't want to give up everything our family has in Shuangshui Village?" Sure enough, Sun Yuhou and Sun Lanhua, father and daughter, looked at each other in shock, and then Sun Yuhou asked in a bad mood.

"Sister, the factory is naturally a large state-owned one. They produce products for export, so they really need a group of young and strong workers. Besides, my brother-in-law won't have to worry about it every day after he gets a job."

"This……"

"Big sister, this matter is limited to the three of us. You certainly need to think about it carefully. I also want to take Shao Ping and Lan Xiang with me. We must not let Second Dad and Second Mom know about it, otherwise they will make a big fuss again."

"..."

At this time, Sun Yuhou and his daughter Sun Lanhua were completely confused, because they had never thought about these things before. Moreover, Sun Yuhou, who was reluctant to move, had never considered leaving Shuangshui Village, because he still had an elderly and confused mother to support. However, he was also sure that his son was capable, so he naturally believed that Su Ning could help Wang Manyin and Sun Lanhua find a job, so he soon made his own ideas and decisions.

"Shaoan, your brother and sister and I will still stay in Shuangshui Village. After all, your brother and sister still have to go to school, and your grandmother cannot do without my care. Also, you have to come back quickly after arranging jobs for Wang Manyin and Lanhua." The honest Sun Yuhou quickly expressed his opinion and was still inclined to send only Wang Manyin and Sun Lanhua's family away.

"Big brother, they gave me such a good job opportunity because they saw my abilities. So it is absolutely impossible for me to arrange my sister and brother-in-law to go there and then run back to our Shuangshui Village." Sun Ning immediately shook his head and pointed out Sun Yuhou's fantasy. The main reason was that he wanted to leave northern Shaanxi, and Wang Manyin and Sun Lanhua were just a foil.

"Ah? This..." Sure enough, Sun Yuhou was also confused by his own stupid idea.

"Sir, I'm planning to go over to my friend's place to learn some experience. When I return to Shuangshui Village, I'll have a skill. Just tell others that I'm going out of town to do some work. You don't need to worry about the letter of introduction."

"Shaoan, is it really okay to do this?" Seeing that Suning had indeed made up his mind, Sun Yuhou asked Suning helplessly for confirmation.

"Big brother, why is it not okay? I don't steal or rob, I just buy and sell, why is it not okay?"

"Okay! Then go over and take a look first. If nothing works, come back quickly."

"it is good."

"Shaoan, if you take us to the southern factory to find jobs, what will happen between you and Tian Runye?" Sun Lanhua, who was thoughtful, looked at Su Ning puzzledly and asked.

"Sister, it's impossible for Tian Runye and I to be together. Her uncle is a big leader in our county, so Tian Runye's parents have very high standards. There's no way they would be interested in a poor family like ours."

"So what if we're poor? It's glorious for us to be poor." Sun Lanhua, as an elder sister, became a little unhappy when she heard her brother being so self-deprecating.

"Sister, there is no such thing as being poor and it is glorious. Just listen to those words. If we really take them seriously, we are stupid."

"..."

At this moment, Sun Yuhou and Sun Lanhua suddenly felt that Su Ning in front of them was very unfamiliar. He was not the son and younger brother in their impression. Instead, he exuded the confidence of a superior everywhere, which made Sun Yuhou and Sun Lanhua feel convinced. Naturally, they would not believe that Su Ning had any reason or need to deceive them, so they were prepared to follow Su Ning's arrangements.

At the same time, seeing that he had finally persuaded Sun Yuhou and Sun Lanhua, father and daughter, Sun Ning couldn't help but feel relieved. In fact, Sun Ning was determined to leave northern Shaanxi to find a new way out. Even if Sun Yuhou and Sun Lanhua did not support his behavior, Sun Ning would still say goodbye to them and leave northern Shaanxi in the near future. As for the beautiful beauty Tian Runye, Suning knew that there was still a big gap between him and her.

Of course, Suning also thought about He Xiu Lian, who was still making vinegar in Shanxi, but he was not the law-abiding Sun Shaoan before, so naturally he had no interest in provoking her. He felt that if he had not forcefully intruded, He Xiu Lian's fate would not have been as tragic as in the original drama. More importantly, he felt that He Xiu Lian was not his type.

……

Although Suning did not seek Tian Runye's help this time, Tian Runye still heard about her "brother-in-law" Wang Manyin. Then this silly girl immediately treated Wang Manyin as her "brother-in-law", just like she treated Sun Shaoan's younger brother Sun Shaoping as her "brother-in-law". She ran to the county without any care to find her uncle Tian Fujun.

Tian Fujun can be said to be a genuinely good leader. It would be a blessing for the people if China was full of capable officials like Tian Fujun. Therefore, after understanding the specific situation, he immediately went against the majority opinion and let Wang Manyin go, and also released all the prisoners serving re-education through labor. This immediately brought him into a huge trouble.

"Runye, did Sun Shaoan come to the county to beg you?" At this time, Tian Fujun's wife Xu Aiyun looked at Tian Runye meaningfully and asked.

"No! I thought he would come, but he didn't come to find me, so I took the initiative to go to the county to ask my second uncle for help." Hearing the sudden question from his second mother Xu Aiyun, Tian Runye felt a little depressed.

"Silly girl, Sun Shaoan himself is not in a hurry, why are you meddling in other people's affairs here? If others find out, I don't know how they will fabricate the relationship between you and Sun Shaoan." Hearing that her silly daughter was so proactive, Xu Aiyun felt a little amused.

"Aunt, I like Sun Shaoan and am willing to be with him. Naturally, I don't worry about what others say about me." At this time, Tian Runye expressed her true feelings firmly.

"You kid!"

Tian Runye didn't stay with Tian Fujun and Xu Aiyun for long. Instead, she left immediately. She wanted to return to Shuangshui Village as soon as possible to ask about Suning's situation. Why didn't she come to her after such a big thing happened? In Tian Runye's opinion, it was clear that Suning didn't care about her. Looking at Tian Runye's graceful back as she left, Tian Fujun and his wife had different thoughts. Tian Fujun was naturally very open-minded and believed that marriage and love were free. However, his wife Xu Aiyun had a completely different mentality. She always wanted to use this beautiful niece to bring more benefits to their Tian family.

"Don't ask about Runye's affairs from now on." Tian Fujun said to his wife in a neither light nor heavy tone.

"Hmph! Do we really have to watch her marry a farmer?" Xu Aiyun immediately snorted coldly and asked back disapprovingly.

"What's wrong with farmers? Are farmers not worthy of marrying and having children?"

"Fujun, is that what I meant?" Tian Fujun's wife Xu Aiyun asked disapprovingly, and then explained her thoughts in detail, "You are facing obstacles and restrictions in your work in the county now. Li Dengyun is now the deputy director of our county. If Runye can marry Li Dengyun's son Li Xiangqian, Li Dengyun will definitely support your work in the county in the future."

"Hmph! I think you are doing this for yourself. Is it that Liu Zhiying asked you to propose marriage again?" Because Xu Aiyun was a subordinate of Li Dengyun's wife Liu Zhiying, Tian Fujun ruthlessly exposed Xu Aiyun's true purpose.

"That's right! So what?" Xu Aiyun admitted it directly. Which family doesn't want to find a helper for their own family when proposing a marriage?

"Hey! Children naturally have their own pursuits and standards of happiness. As parents, we shouldn't interfere too much. Besides, we are just Runye's second father and second mother."

"Fujun, I don't agree with what you said. Runye's parents think the same as me. They don't want their daughter to marry Sun Shaoan."

"..."

……

At this time, Tian Runye took the bus back to Shuangshui Village, and then went straight to the fields on the plateau to look for Suning. Sure enough, she saw the man waving the hoe here. In fact, she had seen Suning working in the fields many times, but today she felt that Su Ning waving the hoe was particularly charming, like a big mystery wrapped in mystery. Tian Runye's heart suddenly accelerated and she wanted to solve all the mysteries of Su Ning. Maybe this is the most primitive impulse and passion of boys and girls.

"Shaoan, why didn't you come to the county to find me? Your brother-in-law Wang Manyin was arrested and sent to labor camp. Aren't you anxious at all?" Tian Runye looked at Su Ning in front of him and questioned him.

"Did you know?" Suning stopped working and looked at the beautiful woman who suddenly appeared with some surprise and asked. He was really moved by the pure natural beauty from the Western Regions in front of him.

"Humph! I've already told my second father, and he decided to release my brother-in-law, and he also released the other inmates."

"Runye, thank you."

"Sun Shaoan, you know this is not what I want to hear."

Of course, Su Ning knew what Tian Runye wanted to hear, but Su Ning knew that it would be difficult for her and him to be together. After all, the resistance from both families was still very strong. Looking up at the sky that had suddenly become overcast, Su Ning suggested in a calm voice, "It's going to rain! We should go to the abandoned cave nearby to take shelter."

"........."

After saying this, Suning picked up his hoe and went to a nearby abandoned cave first. Tian Runye was stunned when she saw Su Ning's cold and unrestrained back. It took her a long time to come to her senses and chase after him. Then she followed Su Ning step by step to an abandoned cave. When the two of them just walked into the cave, a heavy rainstorm, which was rarely seen in the northwest, began to fall from the sky.

At this moment, Su Ning was leaning on a hoe as he and Tian Runye watched the violent storm unfold before them. Suddenly, they were both speechless, lost in the storm. After a long while, it was Tian Runye who looked at Su Ning first and asked, "Shaoan, what's wrong with you? Why do you seem strange today?"

"Runye, I'm leaving."

"Ah? Where are you going?" Tian Runye immediately looked at the man in front of her in panic.

“To a place where I can realize my dreams.”

"What?" Tian Runye was a little confused by Suning's answer.

"Runye, I know you feel for me, but the gap between our families is too big. Your family would not agree to our marriage, so I didn't ask you for help on Wang Manyin's behalf."

"Nonsense! You're not my family, how could you possibly know what he's thinking?"

"Runye, what I admire most is an open-minded person like your uncle. I believe he would support your and my free love and future marriage. However, your parents and stepmother would never allow it. They are the beneficiaries of your uncle's privilege and naturally don't want this privilege to disappear or be significantly reduced."

"Shaoan, you really think too much. My parents and stepmother are not that kind of people." At this time, Tian Runye naturally felt guilty and wanted to refute, but she felt that these arguments seemed very powerless.

"Runye, human life is very short. It's not just about so-called love, but also about facing helpless reality."

"Sun Shaoan, since life is so short, why should we suppress our feelings? Should we easily give up this relationship just because my family doesn't support us?"

"Then are you willing to elope with me?" At this moment, Su Ning suddenly looked at Tian Runye and asked.

"Ah? What did you say?" Tian Runye was immediately stunned by Suning's proposal, and felt his mind go blank.

"Elope! Go to a place where there are no obstacles, and live our own lives happily."

"..."

"What? You can't bear to leave your family? You don't want to take risks with me?" At this time, Suning saw Tian Runye's hesitation and couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"..."

Looking at Tian Runye, who only knew how to lower her head, Suning felt disappointed from the bottom of his heart. Before he met Tian Runye in person, he didn't have much feeling for her. But when he saw this beautiful girl from the northwest for the first time, Suning admitted that he couldn't help but be moved, so he made an unusual proposal to elope with Tian Runye.

Since Tian Runye in front of him did not want to respond to his proposal, and Su Ning also thought that she was rejecting him with silence, he turned around with disappointment and wanted to leave this broken cave, ready to use his body to face the torrential rain on the Shaanxi-North Plateau. But at the moment Su Ning turned around, Tian Runye, who had been silent all the time, suddenly hugged Su Ning's back tightly, and pleaded with Su Ning in a murmured and depressed tone, "Shaoan, don't go!"

"..."Suddenly being hugged tightly by this top beauty, Suning was immediately shocked by her hot body.

"Shaoan, don't go!" Seeing that Su Ning's whole body suddenly became stiff without any other effective response, Tian Runye, with her face pressed tightly against Su Ning's back, spoke again.

Su Ning forcibly pried open Tian Runye's arms that were tightly wrapped around him, then turned around and held Tian Runye's head and started biting it. At this moment, Tian Runye naturally became stiff all over, and her mind became blank. Then she responded to Su Ning with the same fierceness...

The storm that swept through Shuangshui Village lasted for four or five hours. The semi-arid land in the northwest was once again irrigated by rain. At this time, Tian Runye had completely submitted to Suning. Regardless of whether Suning stayed in Shuangshui Village or chose to leave Shuangshui Village, Tian Runye, who had already broken off the relationship with Suning, decided to follow him all the way.
