Chapter 184 Zhang Aihua asks what happened to Shen Jiaren and Liu Hui
Zhang Aihua looked at Shen Jiaren's confused expression and smiled, then said, "It's okay. It doesn't matter if you can't remember. Auntie has brought it to you, but you can't let Auntie stand at the door and talk to you all the time."
Seeing this, Shen Jiaren quickly made way to let Aunt Aihua enter the yard, and at the same time she tightened the rope in her hand a lot.
Zhang Aihua walked into the yard and said to Shen Jiaren, "Should we talk in the yard or go into the house? Auntie has something to say to you."
To be honest, Shen Jiaren felt that the east wing where she slept was not convenient for receiving other people. The main room was used as an outer room and there was no place for receiving people, so she said to Zhang Aihua, "Aunt, let's sit under the awning and talk. I haven't cleaned up the house yet, so I'm embarrassed to see people."
Zhang Aihua nodded and walked towards the bench under the awning. Shen Jiaren took a bowl from the kitchen, poured a cup of sugar water for Aunt Zhang Aihua and brought it to her.
When Shen Jiaren took the stool and small table that Chang Kai and the others had been sitting on and walked to Aunt Aihua's place to sit down, Aunt Aihua put the bowl in her hand on the small table and said to Shen Jiaren, "Auntie came here today to give you the clothes you asked me to make, but I also want to ask you something more.
Yesterday, when Liu Hui took something back, there was an extra chicken in the basket. He said you gave it to him. Is that true?"
"Yes, yesterday I went to the mountains with my dogs. The dogs brought me a rabbit, a chicken and a roe deer respectively. I met Brother Liu Hui on the mountain. Brother Liu Hui asked me to cook for him. As a reward, I gave him a chicken."
"Liu Hui became a little unhappy when he returned home yesterday. Do you know why?
Although this child doesn't talk much normally, I noticed yesterday that he suddenly became very unhappy.
Auntie came here just to ask you, do you know the reason?
Because when I went back to get my things, I looked very happy, but when I came back, I was completely different. "
When Shen Jiaren heard Zhang Aihua say this, she felt a little embarrassed. On the one hand, she thought, does this count as being visited by the parents?
Secondly, I thought, I haven’t done anything yet and my parents are already coming to my house to find me?
Zhang Aihua looked at Shen Jiaren's slightly embarrassed expression and said, "I'm not here to ask you questions, I'm just curious, what happened to you?"
To be honest, when Shen Jiaren heard this, she didn't know how to respond.
Because she felt that nothing had happened between her and Liu Hui, and nothing had happened yet. They had just made things clear, and they had just talked about their plans, but hadn't done anything.
Seeing that Shen Jiaren's expression was becoming more and more awkward and she still didn't answer, Zhang Aihua continued to ask, "So what did you talk about yesterday?"
Shen Jiaren was a little speechless, and replied, "Aunt Aihua, did anything happen when Brother Liu Hui went back yesterday?"
“He didn’t say anything or do anything, but my aunt noticed that his mood was not right.
You know, I only have this one child now, so although I don’t seem to pay much attention to him normally, I can tell if there is something wrong with him, and I want to know why.
Auntie can't afford to gamble, and she doesn't dare to gamble."
Shen Jiaren replied, "Aunt Aihua, we really didn't talk about anything, and we didn't do anything. I just talked about my recent plans. I plan to study hard and make progress every day."
"Study hard and make progress every day? Auntie doesn't understand."
"Well, this teacher exam made me feel that learning is still useful. Although we have gone to the countryside, it does not prevent us from continuing to study. So, I am ready to respond to Chairman Mao's call, study hard, and make progress every day."
"You? Who are you and?"
Shen Jiaren was really surprised at Aunt Zhang Aihua and Liu Hui's ability to grasp the key points in a conversation. As soon as the words were spoken, they could quickly grasp the key points they wanted in the text.
"Recently, I occasionally study with the educated youth at the educated youth site."
"Xiao Shen, please forgive me for asking so bluntly. Are there any men among the educated youth you studied with? Do you like them?"
Shen Jiaren replied embarrassedly, "There are men and women, but how can this lead to the conclusion that I like each other?"
Zhang Aihua said happily, "You don't like that male educated youth?"
Seeing that Aunt Zhang Aihua's answer was irrelevant, Shen Jiaren said, "What does this have to do with my liking for each other?
We were just studying together.”
Zhang Aihua quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, Auntie is thinking too much.
Since you two are just studying together and you don't like each other, then this doesn't prevent Liu Hui from liking you."
"Forehead,,,,,,"
"Don't worry, it wasn't Liu Hui who told me. It was Auntie who discovered it herself.
After all, he is my own child. I can tell from the little details without anyone telling me. "
When Shen Jiaren heard Zhang Aihua's question, she really didn't know how to answer.
"Auntie knows you are still young and have just arrived here not long ago. Not only are you not used to anything, but you also always feel unfamiliar.
Even this teacher exam has given you hope of returning.
I can’t say that you educated youth may never go back.
But this exam really makes the problem clear. There are only a few positions, so many people are competing for them, and so many people are using their connections. It's always a bit difficult if you want to rely on yourself.
You can really consider finding someone to rely on.
Plus, your family is in such a situation that you can't rely on anyone at all. Even if you have the subsidy, it's not as important as finding a backer for yourself."
After hearing this, Shen Jiaren didn't know how to respond. After all, she could always tell others that she was from the future and the modern times, and that it wouldn't be long before the educated youth would have the opportunity to return to the city.
If it really is here, it will really be a lifetime.
Moreover, Shen Jiaren always believed that if you rely on mountains, the mountains will fall and if you rely on water, the water will flow away. It is better to rely on yourself than on others.
There was no way to tell this to others. After all, at that time, there were no so-called female households, let alone the thoughts and behaviors of so-called independent women.
Seeing that Shen Jiaren was silent again, Zhang Aihua felt that her words touched Shen Jiaren's heart, and continued, "Before the last exam, I knew that Liu Hui went into the mountains several times to collect mountain products and money, so I could use his connections to help you.
He should have also told you that he has connections that can help you.
Although I don’t know why this was not done in the end, and I don’t know why Liu Hui exchanged those mountain products for money and took them back, but I want to tell you.
Just like that exam, if you want, Liu Hui and our family will definitely do our best to help you.
This is what I want to tell you, the meaning of reliance."
Shen Jiaren didn't say anything. After all, Liu Hui had definitely told her about this last time, and she had indeed refused it. But Shen Jiaren really didn't expect that Zhang Aihua would tell her about this in front of her at this moment.
Zhang Aihua saw that Shen Jiaren's expression became colder and colder as she spoke, so she said to Shen Jiaren, "I originally wanted to pretend that I didn't see this.
But I really can’t imagine why you two have become like this.
Before, my Liu Hui had feelings for you, and I don’t believe you didn’t feel it, but why do you two feel more and more distant now?
I can understand why you didn't come home. After all, Liu Hui and the captain said that you had something to do in the town.
But the expression on Liu Hui’s face when he came back yesterday told me that it didn’t seem like that.
So I think there is a problem between you.
And this issue does not seem to be a simple quarrel among young people.
Auntie wants to know, what happened between you two?
Are you climbing up the ladder?
Or do you think that our temple is small and the burden is heavy, and you don’t think it is worth it?
Auntie wants to know why."
When Shen Jiaren heard Zhang Aihua asking her so aggressively, she almost said that she was a bad woman who was stepping on one person and looking at that person, and had her feet on several boats.
Shen Jiaren was really speechless. How could she say this?
