Rebirth: It's Not You, It's Me

My second aunt wiped her tears and started working.

Soon my aunt and uncle came. I put the necklace on my aunt, and she was so excited that her eyes were filled with tears.

Seeing that many elders came to my house, I no longer had to act like an adult and work, because wherever I wanted to do some work, I would be kicked out. Let me rest.

So I just went to find Jiaowan.

The factory where Jiao works is also on holiday.

"Luo Luo, have you bought clothes for the New Year?"

"Yes, did you buy it? Let me see."

"I just bought a pair of shoes. I haven't bought anything else yet. Please go shopping with me! I'll make some money from work this year, so I'll treat you to a meal."

"Okay, okay!"

I drove Jiao to the county town.

After shopping for an afternoon, Jiao bought a short down jacket, a warm sweater, and a pair of pants. Finally, she had everything she needed.

Winter nights tend to close earlier, and there aren’t many pedestrians on the streets, but many shops on the street are still open.

The two of us found a small shop and ordered a spicy hot pot. This is also the one I liked to eat in my previous life. We come here often.

The room was warm and there was even breath on the windows.

Soon our hot pot was ready, and we each had a big bowl of rice and started to show off our rice.

"Luo Luo, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you."

"Tell me, there is nothing we can't talk about."

"It was Shen Yushi who joined the army in October this year."

"It's a good thing to defend our country!"

"Don't you want to know what happened between him and that woman?"

"I don't want to know. It has nothing to do with me. But where did you get this information?"

"They often come to play with my brother. I heard it!"

"Then do you know any gossip about our village?"

"The biggest gossip is about you. You are no longer in the martial arts world, but there are still legends about you in the martial arts world."

"Haha...why am I so famous!"

"Don't laugh, seriously, Shen Yushi was framed, nothing happened between them, and it ended up with you being separated. We are all very sorry. And after Shen Yushi found out the truth, he knew he couldn't get you back, so he became depressed. In order to help him get over it, his family asked him to join the army."

"If you miss it, you miss it. There is no point in saying anything else."

"His family also came to see me. Knowing that we have a good relationship, they asked me to contact you and help persuade Shen Yushi. He is like a poor abandoned puppy. He is very pitiful and obviously thin."

"Okay, I get it. These beans are delicious. You should try them." I deliberately changed the subject.

Seeing my rejection, Jiao didn't say anything else.

"Yang Chuyi called me and said that the party will still be at his house this year, on the evening of the second day of the New Year."

"Okay, I see. Yang Chuyi also has some gossip. Do you want to hear it?"

"He and Yun Feifei are together."

"As expected. But it won't last long."

"What? Do you know the inside story?"

"I don't know. One is developing in a county town, and the other is developing in a provincial capital. Their perceptions are very different. So it's easy for disagreements to arise, and there will be many conflicts."

"That's true!"

"We have nothing to do with this matter, so just stay out of it!"

"I'm just afraid that Yang Chuyi is pursuing you so much, and everyone knows it. I'm afraid Yun Feifei will do something bad to you."

"We only meet once at a party. The rest of the time, we can't see each other. What can she do to me?"

"That's right. During the party, Zhaojun, Yuxiao, and Liu Ting and I will help you keep an eye on her to prevent her from causing any trouble."

"I love you guys so much. We all grew up together, why are we so different?"

"Who knows? Maybe he's just jealous!"

"Yu Che and I are going to Northeast China to play for a few days after the fifth day of the Chinese New Year. Do you want to come?"

"No, look at the chilblains on my hands. They won't heal here. If I go to the Northeast, I won't be able to move an inch."

"It's so cold in the Northeast, there must be some good frostbite cream for sale. I'll go and find it for you. Maybe it can cure it, right?"

"Luo Luo, you are so nice."

"You're really nice to me!"

"Let's go play with Zhaojun tomorrow. She's on holiday too."

"it is good!"

After dinner, we slept at home in the county town for one night. I really didn't want to drive at night. I called home and told them not to worry.

Jiao and I slept in the same room. We chatted until the early morning and didn't want to go to sleep. I don't know where the topic came from.

This might be the legendary chatterbox that has been opened and cannot be stopped!

"Luo Luo, how is your relationship with Yu Che now?"

“It’s pretty good!”

"That's right. He treats you well to the core, how can he not be good?"

"Have you been on a blind date?"

"I was arranged to go on several blind dates during the Chinese New Year. It's so annoying."

"I'll go on a blind date with you?"

"Hurry up and get it. If I take you there, you'll have to go on eleven out of ten blind dates."

"Then I'll wait for your good news."

"Oh!"

"Chinese New Year is the peak season for blind dates. I'm sure Liu Ting will go on a blind date as well."

"I think so! You guys are the only ones in school, so there's no need for blind dates."

"Haha... your blind date is annoying. It's also worrying that no one is talking about the marriage."

"That's right. After a successful blind date, we started dating, got married, and had kids. My life has been like this, step by step, without any surprises or accidents."

"There's nothing wrong with this! A simple and ordinary life is the essence of life."

"Sometimes I envy you. You live like the sun, wanton and flamboyant. You are the focus of the crowd wherever you go."

"This also has its downsides. If you do something bad, it's easy to be discovered." After hearing what I said, Jiao couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Is Yuxiao going to get married? It seems that her relationship with her boyfriend is very stable and they have been together for quite some time. Her family must be making arrangements."

"I think so too. I'll ask her when we meet during the Chinese New Year."

"Did you know? Shen Mengshi has a girlfriend."

"Where?" I asked knowingly. In his previous life, he had a girlfriend during this period and got married. However, his girlfriend was very honest before marriage, but after marriage, she became a little bit subversive to my perception.

"He's from the next village, his junior high school classmate."

"Does it look good?"

"Not bad, about the same height as you."

"I don't know if I'll have a chance to see what it looks like."

"She often comes to our village. Maybe we'll see her one day."

"That's right." I had never seen it from beginning to end in my previous life.

"A boy in our class got married, and he asked us to go to his house for the New Year!"

"Who is it? Getting married so early."

"It's Xiaolong. He married Liu Ting's cousin."

"Wow! That's great. Liu Ting's cousin is pretty, with big white eyes. If they have children in the future, their eyes will definitely be very pretty."
