She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

"I'm going to be turning 26 next month," Zhu Yanfeng said, with a rare hint of embarrassment, "I'm a bit old."

He sighed in his heart. Comrade Shen looked to be in her youth. Compared with her, he was really a little old.

However, he immediately explained: "I am not that kind of old-fashioned person, I am just worried that the song sung by Cheng Qinji will offend you."

Shen Weicang had no idea how valuable a 26-year-old university professor was. Zhu Yanfeng said that he was old, and she agreed sincerely and naturally: "Yes, I am a little old, Professor Zhu, you are eight years older than me."

Pei Jingche is five years older than her, and she thinks he is a little old. Her second uncle's brother is only twenty-two and already has a child.

Compared with his second uncle's brother, Pei Jingche is 23 years old and Zhu Yanfeng is 26 years old, so of course they are old.

In Shen Weicang's mind, getting married means that one is no longer young, and having children will automatically raise one's generation to a higher level.

Her cognition could not be called correct, but it was formed under the influence of the people around her, and naturally there were differences between her ideas and those of Pei Jingche and others.

Zhu Yanfeng felt like his heart was stabbed, and smiled bitterly: "Yes."

He had never worried about his age and marriage before, and even thought it would be fine not to get married in this life.

Now that Comrade Shen mentioned this, an unprecedented anxiety suddenly swept over my heart.

He was already 26 years old, and she was only 18, at the prime of her life. She was full of vigor and vitality that he did not have, like a little bird calling its friends by the window every morning, full of vitality and energy.

Compared to her, I really feel a bit old-fashioned.

Even compared to Cheng Qinji, his age was not an advantage. Cheng Qinji was nineteen years old, about the same age as her. No wonder she was willing to chat with him.

Zhu Yanfeng fell into deep anxiety and fell silent.

Cheng Qinji snorted complacently: "I said he was old-fashioned, Cang Cang ignore him, let's continue singing."

"I can also sing 'The Moon Represents My Heart.'" He picked another romantic song, which made Zhu Yanfeng angry.

He knew that he shouldn't keep listening to the song now, so he reminded her: "You should pay attention when driving, don't be distracted, what if something goes wrong?"

Cheng Qinji said disdainfully: "You will get into trouble if you drive."

Zhu Yanfeng sorted out his feelings and put aside his age anxiety for the time being: "Didn't you get into a car accident with Mr. Li who came to Beijing to discuss investment?"

Cheng Qinji's expression froze, and then she became angry and said, "What does that have to do with me? It was his driver who drove recklessly, and he blamed me for the accident?"

Zhu Yanfeng avoided the main point: "I didn't say who was right or wrong or who was responsible. I just wanted to remind you to pay attention when driving and don't be distracted."

Cheng Qinji wanted to argue, but he added, "After all, Comrade Shen was sitting in the passenger seat."

Liu Chuanyu felt something was strange. He was sitting in the passenger seat when he came to Xutang Village in the morning. Why didn't Professor Zhu say a few more words to help him?

Xu Jingxiang was thinking about her own affairs as she walked home. From the moment she was reborn, she realized that she could not stay in the Xu family forever.

Her parents were unreliable, and her brother was even less reliable. She felt a little regretful at this moment. Perhaps she should have taken advantage of the situation and entangled Pei Jingche.

At least in this way she could get rid of the Xu family as quickly as possible. At worst she could part ways with Pei Jingche after entering the city.

Originally, she had planned to divorce Pei Jingche before she died in her previous life.

But it was too late to say anything now. At that time, she only wanted to teach Shen Weicang a lesson and didn't think too much about it.

At this point she could only take things one step at a time. She had to save some money as soon as possible to leave Xutang Village.

Thinking of this, Xu Jingxiang felt a little worried again. In her previous life, she had wasted so many years in the Pei family and had squandered a great opportunity. Instead of seizing the opportunity to study, she devoted herself to being a nanny for the Pei family.

She cooks, does laundry, and cleans every day. Even though she has a washing machine, she still washes Pei Jingche's clothes by hand.

In the end, apart from taking care of people, he didn't learn any skills. It was difficult for him to take the college entrance examination and get into a university after his rebirth.

Xu Jingxiang smiled bitterly. Even though she was so humble and lived without dignity like a servant in the old society, the Pei family did not look up to her.

She walked into the kitchen and looked at the beans, cucumbers and a few sweet potatoes on the stove, and she felt a surge of anger in her heart.

Why?

Why is it that Shen Weicang can dress so well while I am so miserable when they are both close to Pei Jingche?

Recently, people in the village have been discussing the matter of Shen Weicang and Pei Jingche in private. It was she who asked Xu Hecheng to spread it secretly.

Although she knew that Shen Weicang's glory was only temporary and that it wouldn't be long before she would be as miserable as herself in her previous life, Xu Jingxiang still couldn't suppress the unhappiness in her heart.

What if Shen Weicang decided to stop while he was ahead and take some benefits from Pei Jingche and then voluntarily cut off ties with Pei Jingche?

Isn't she getting the advantage for nothing and living a happy life?

Although Xu Jingxiang knew that Shen Weicang's personality was unlikely to be so content, she still wanted to leave her with no way out and had to get entangled with Pei Jingche.

At first, she only had a little resentment towards Shen Weicang, blaming herself for being bullied by Cheng Hexi in her previous life because of jealousy and a few words.

Seeing her so successful recently has aroused an indescribable feeling in my heart.

Xu Jingxiang suddenly walked out of the kitchen, stood outside the chicken coop with a knife in his hand, bent down, grabbed a chicken, and slaughtered the chicken neatly with a sharp move of the knife.

Xu Manyuan and Liu Guihua smelled the aroma of meat before they even got home. The villagers they met on the way greeted them with a smile: "What day is it today? I smell chicken stewing in your house?"

As soon as I entered the house, I saw that Xu Jingxiang had stewed a chicken, and there was a basin of chicken feathers in the yard that had not been cleaned up.

Xu Manyuan was so angry that he felt dizzy: "Xu Jingxiang, you don't plan to get married, right? Why didn't you discuss with me before killing and stewing the chicken?!"

Xu Jingxiang walked out of the kitchen carrying a pot of chicken: "I raised this chicken, why can't I kill it?"

Xu Manyuan really wanted to slap her, but she was holding the meat in her hand: "You spendthrift, why are you slaughtering chickens today? Why don't you slaughter yourself!"

"If you don't want to live like this anymore, get out of this house as soon as possible!"

Xu Jingxiang walked into the main room and put the meat on the table: "It's just right, I have something to tell you, I'm going to work at the No. 2 Cotton Factory in the village."

Xu Manyuan: “?”

He felt himself getting angry: "What did you say? You still want to work at the Second Cotton Mill, but even I, your father, can't go!"

"You've gone crazy, haven't you?" He picked up the broom and hit Xu Jingxiang with it. "I think you don't want to live like this anymore. I'll find someone to find you a husband tomorrow!"

Xu Jingxiang kicked the stool over and said, "Aren't you planning to arrange for Xu Hecheng to work at the Second Factory?"

Xu Hecheng is seventeen years old this year, two years younger than her. Her parents are really partial to him and have been making plans for their son early on.

In order to send Xu Hecheng to the second factory, the two of them used all the connections they could find and gave him a lot of gifts.

Liu Guihua complained: "How can He Cheng be like you? He will get married in the future. Who will be interested in him if he doesn't have a decent job?"
