Seventy Legally Blonde

Chapter 49 Do You Really Have a Fiance?

Zhou Niannian went hunting in the mountains this time and gained a lot. He even killed a wild boar, three sheep, and more than a dozen rabbits and pheasants.

A group of people carried their prey down the mountain talking and laughing, and entered the big cafeteria under the envious, regretful, or annoyed eyes of the villagers.

Meng Sanqiu recorded work points according to the previous regulations, and then left the pheasants and rabbits to them, and only wild boars and sheep were left in the big dining hall.

Zhou Niannian asked Deng Junliang to record the meat each of them wanted to sell, borrowed a few bicycles from the team headquarters, chose three strong ones, and took the meat to the town to find Yang Jiarui.

The guard at the police station already knew Zhou Niannian, and when he saw her coming, he shouted directly into the courtyard, "Yang Jiarui, I'm looking for you."

A group of comrades from the police station were training in the courtyard. Seeing Zhou Niannian's slender and pretty figure, they immediately looked at Yang Jiarui with very ambiguous eyes.

"You boy, you move very quickly. It seems that you will be the one soon, right?" Da Liu bumped Yang Jiarui's shoulder.

They only think of her as a partner, Yang Jiarui smiled wryly in his heart, thinking of the news that his uncle Meng Sanqiu came to the town to tell him this morning, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Trotted out to meet Zhou Niannian, Yang Jiarui was stunned in surprise when he saw a row of bicycles and the meat on them outside.

"Nian er, Comrade Xiao Zhou, did you have a bumper harvest today? Why is there so much meat?"

Zhou Niannian pointed to the villagers who came with him: "Take the villagers to hunt in the mountains today. There is a lot of meat. Can you see if you can get some? If there are any leftovers, I will send some to the town supply and marketing cooperative."

With the experience of selling roe deer meat last time, Zhou Niannian understood the balance and saturation of market supply and demand, so he asked clearly in advance to avoid embarrassment for Yang Jiarui.

Yang Jiarui thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Leave them all, it's still the old rule, you come to get the money tomorrow."

Zhou Niannian took a look at him, and took a large piece of mutton from the car, "This mutton is for your family alone. I heard that my aunt is not in good health, so I will give it to my aunt."

Hearing that Zhou Niannian had prepared mutton for his mother, a warm current flashed in Yang Jiarui's heart. He silently took the mutton, gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Comrade Xiao Zhou, I...I have something I want to talk to you alone."

After thinking about it, he added eagerly: "It's about your money being stolen last time."

Zhou Niannian was slightly stunned, surprise flashed in his eyes, he looked up at Deng Junliang and the two fellow villagers who followed him.

Deng Junliang scratched his head, thinking that the matter of money was a private matter, and it was inconvenient for them to listen, "Comrade Xiao Zhou, let's wait for you at the corner ahead."

Zhou Niannian thought for a while, then took some pheasants and rabbits from the bicycle and handed them to Deng Junliang: "You send these to Director Wang of the Township Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and I'll go find you in a while."

Seeing Deng Junliang and the others walk away, Zhou Niannian raised his head and looked at Yang Jiarui: "What's the matter, please ask."

Yang Jiarui looked down at his toes, and after a long silence, Fang mustered up the courage to ask, "Do you really have a fiancé?"

After all, she raised her head and stared nervously at Zhou Niannian's expression, feeling both anticipation and fear in her heart, looking forward to Zhou Niannian saying that she had a fiancé to be false, but also afraid to hear that it was true.

Zhou Niannian was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Yang Jiarui to know what she said last night so soon. She looked at Yang Jiarui calmly and smiled slightly: "It's true. My family has been a baby girl since childhood. We grew up together as childhood sweethearts. big."

These words were almost the same as what Meng Sanqiu said in the morning, followed by a sentence that she loved her fiancé very much. Yang Jiarui's hand suddenly grasped the mutton in his hand, and the light in his eyes dimmed little by little.

He wanted to ask Zhou Niannian if he really loved her fiancé, but he was afraid of hearing an answer he didn't want to hear again, so he could only purse his lips and remain silent.

There was a faint embarrassment in the air.

Zhou Niannian sighed slightly in her heart. It seems that she can no longer ask Yang Jiarui to deliver meat to the county supply and marketing cooperative. She insisted on discussing cooperation with Yang Jiarui at first, but she didn't want to cause other misunderstandings. Now it seems that things are backfired.

She felt a little regretful, it seemed that she would not be able to cooperate with Yang Jiarui in the future, and both parties might feel embarrassed if they cooperated again. Although Yang Jiarui didn't say it clearly, she could feel his affection for her. It seemed that she had to find another way to make money.

"If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first." Zhou Niannian pretended not to notice Yang Jiarui's sadness, waved his hands with a smile, turned around and pushed the bicycle away.

"Ah? Oh, goodbye!" Yang Jiarui realized that Zhou Niannian had already got on his bicycle and left. He stood there silently for a long while before turning around and leaving dejectedly.

After bidding farewell to Yang Jiarui, Zhou Niannian went to the township supply and marketing cooperative. She and Yang Jiarui didn't say a few words at all. When she rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative, it happened that Deng Junliang had just sold the meat to Director Wang.

Director Wang was very surprised to see her: "But I haven't seen you for some days, what have you been up to lately?"

Zhou Niannian smiled: "I'm busy in the production team, how are you doing recently?"

Director Wang liked her straightforwardness, and sighed: "You haven't sent much meat recently, in fact, the meat you sent over is fresh and tender, but it's a pity that if you buy it fresh, it will go bad within a few days, so , It was hot a while ago, and the meat was not selling well, but fortunately, the weather is getting colder, and the meat can be kept at home for two or three days, and now it can sell better."

Zhou Niannian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind, "Director Wang, what did you just say?"

Director Wang handed her the money, thought for a while and said, "The meat is easy to sell now."

"It's not this one, it's the previous one." Zhou Niannian urged, frowning.

Director Wang blinked in confusion: "It's hot, and the meat is not selling well. After buying it, it will go bad after a few days."

Zhou Niannian clapped her palms and shouted: "Yes, yes, that's the sentence, oops, why didn't I remember it."

"Didn't remember anything?" Director Wang looked at Zhou Niannian in a daze, not knowing what happened to her just now.

"It's okay, it's okay, I suddenly remembered something," Zhou Niannian said goodbye to Director Wang with a smile: "I have to go back to the village beforehand, and I will talk to you when I have time."

After finishing speaking, he trotted away, leaving Director Wang laughing and shaking his head: "This girl is very hot."

On the way back from the town, Zhou Niannian was absent-minded all the time, and almost rode his bicycle into a ditch several times.

After finally returning to the Meng Jiang Brigade, Zhou Niannian threw the bicycle to Deng Junliang, "I'll talk to the captain about something."

"What's wrong with Comrade Xiao Zhou?" Meng Lidong asked Deng Junliang puzzled.

Deng Junliang scratched his head, if only he knew what was wrong.

Zhou Niannian went to Meng Sanqiu's house, and Xing Dehai happened to be there too, the two of them didn't know what to say, their faces were a little stiff.

"Comrade Xiao Zhou is here, come and talk." Hearing the voice of Zhou Niannian talking to his wife, Meng Sanqiu poked his head out of the main room and waved.

Zhou Niannian went in to say hello: "Captain, hey, Director Xing is here too, I just need to talk to you two about something."

"What are you bothering about again?" Xing Dehai asked with a stiff face and displeasure.
