Chapter 240 Meeting
Chapter 240 Meeting
Qin Xiaoyan was sitting next to Ma Mazi.
She looks simple and pretty, giving people a gentle feeling.
Qin Xiaoyan was wearing typical clothing for a rural girl in the 1950s: a blue top with white flowers on the slanting collar, black wide-leg pants, and a pair of hand-sewn cloth shoes.
Although she is dressed simply, it still cannot conceal her natural beauty.
Two braids hung naturally on her shoulders, and a few strands of hair on her forehead covered most of her forehead.
Maybe because Qin Xiaoyan's family was poor and she often had to go to the fields to help, her skin was not as white as Qin Huairu's.
But healthy and shiny.
Qin Xiaoyan's eyes were big, bright and lively. While Liu Jianshe was looking at her, she was also looking at Liu Jianshe.
There was a hint of curiosity and anticipation in his eyes.
She has a straight nose and slightly thin lips, but she has a shy smile on her face, looking very pure and lovely.
I have to say, it may be a bit of an exaggeration to say that the girl in front of me is prettier than Thirteenth Aunt in her prime.
It is not an exaggeration to say that they are equally matched.
Because Qin Xiaoyan is really beautiful, and when you compare her with Qin Huairu, each has her own merits.
Ma Mazi looked at Liu Jianshe, then at Qin Xiaoyan, and saw the looks in their eyes. This look was very familiar to her.
With her experience, she knew at first glance that these two people had a chance!
It seems that these two days of hard work are not in vain!
Ma Hongxia was also paying attention to the changes in Liu Jianshe's expression.
Ma Mazi and Qin Xiaoyan arrived at around three o'clock in the afternoon. After arriving, Ma Hongxia chatted with Qin Xiaoyan for a while.
From simple communication, Ma Hongxia still prefers Qin Xiaoyan.
Qin Xiaoyan is very calm about her family circumstances and current situation.
She answered whatever Ma Hongxia asked.
Nothing to hide.
Therefore, through her understanding of Qin Xiaoyan, Ma Hongxia also felt a little sorry for Qin Xiaoyan.
It is said that children from poor families grow up early, and there are too many girls like Qin Xiaoyan.
Qin Xiaoyan is lucky because she is beautiful and has the capital to choose.
Girls with average looks are not so lucky.
After a few dozen seconds, Ma Mazi saw that the time was almost right, so he stood up and introduced: "Jianshe, this is Qin Xiaoyan, the most beautiful girl in Qinjia Village."
"Xiaoyan, this is Liu Jianshe."
In the afternoon, Qin Xiaoyan also learned about Liu Jianshe's general situation from Ma Hongxia.
According to Ma Hongxia's description, this was far beyond Qin Xiaoyan's understanding.
A boy who is less than 20 years old is actually a cadre in a large factory with thousands of workers and is highly valued by the boss.
Now that Qin Xiaoyan has met Liu Jianshe, she also believes that Ma Mazi is telling the truth.
Liu Jianshe is indeed very handsome!
Whether it is Qinjia Village or Majia Village, all the boys in the two villages combined are not as good as the boy in front of him.
Therefore, Qin Xiaoyan became even more curious and expectant about Liu Jianshe.
Her eyes sparkled with longing for an unknown future.
Liu Jianshe spoke first: "Hello."
Qin Xiaoyan was somewhat shy, but he still greeted Liu Jianshe very frankly: "My name is Qin Xiaoyan, and I'm eighteen years old."
Ma Mazi said, "Jianshe, this is Xiaoyan's first time in the city, take her around the city."
Liu Jianshe did not refuse and took Qin Xiaoyan out.
When the two walked out of the house, Liu Jianshe saw Qin Huairu still washing vegetables by the pool.
Qin Huairu also noticed the two of them, and her eyes were full of jealousy when she looked at Qin Xiaoyan.
Qin Xiaoyan did not see Qin Huairu when she came.
Seeing Qin Huairu at this moment, Qin Xiaoyan was surprised and happy, and immediately greeted Qin Huairu: "Sister Huairu, you actually live here too."
"Your belly is already so big, are you going to have a baby soon?"
Just after saying these words, Qin Xiaoyan discovered that Qin Huairu was looking at her with an unfriendly look.
Without waiting for Qin Huairu to reply, Liu Jianshe said, "Xiaoyan, your sister Huairu also lives in the middle courtyard. She married into the Jia family. She is now nearly nine months pregnant and is expected to give birth next month."
"When you have nothing to do, you can come and play often and talk to your sister Huairu. Now that she and her mother-in-law have separated, she will be bored at home alone."
[Negative emotion value from Qin Huairu +999! ]
Qin Xiaoyan could feel Qin Huairu's hostility towards her.
But when he heard Liu Jianshe ask her to come here more often in the future, he knew there was something going on between him and Liu Jianshe.
Qin Xiaoyan also wants to have a love relationship.
But her family situation really can't afford to delay.
So in response to Liu Jianshe's words, Qin Xiaoyan just nodded.
Qin Huairu also realized that Liu Jianshe was deliberately trying to make her angry.
That's why Qin Huairu was suddenly no longer angry.
Qin Huairu thought, this is what is called love turning into hate.
Liu Jianshe has always been brooding over the incident that happened back then.
If that’s the case, does that mean Liu Jianshe still has her in his heart?
Unfortunately……
Qin Huairu touched her big belly and couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Jianshe took Qin Xiaoyan out of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.
Walking in the alley, Liu Jianshe opened up the conversation: "What's wrong with your father?"
Qin Xiaoyan was stunned. She didn't expect Liu Jianshe to ask her this question directly.
But on second thought, since the two of them are on a blind date, they should get to know each other well, which is normal.
She told the truth: "My father had been coughing for the past two years, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. But this year, he started coughing up blood, and his body became weaker and weaker..."
Coughing up blood?
Liu Jianshe immediately thought of pneumonia.
Qin Xiaoyan said: "My father went to the hospital for a checkup. The hospital said that my father might have a problem with his lungs and gave him some medicine, but it didn't work. Later, I found an old Chinese doctor who said he could cure my father's disease, but the medicine was expensive and cost ten yuan..."
When Liu Jianshe heard this, he already had an idea in his mind.
He thought for a moment and said, "Qin Xiaoyan, I think the old Chinese doctor you found is a fraud."
Qin Xiaoyan: ???
Facing Qin Xiaoyan who looked puzzled, Liu Jianshe said, "Let's take Cordyceps sinensis, a precious Chinese herbal medicine, for example. One pound is only two or three yuan. Ginseng leaves are not worth that much."
"A course of treatment lasts at most ten days. Could it be that the medicine you were given is thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum or thousand-year-old wild ginseng?"
"Do you really think this medicine is the same as the cabbage sold in the vegetable market?"
"Even if his family really has them, these precious herbs cannot cure your father's illness."
Qin Xiaoyan's body trembled. As the saying goes, when one is desperate, one will try any doctor. So when the old Chinese doctor said it would work, she believed him.
But now after hearing what Liu Jianshe said, she suddenly understood.
"Then...then my father is..."
