Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Chapter 977: Chapter 977: Meeting the Parents

”Then I’ll go take a look. Guodong, are you coming?”

”Sure, I’ll go check it out too.”

Lu Fengzhen and Wang Wugu entered the kitchen.

”Fengzhen, is this Lv Zhiqing Xue’er’s boyfriend?”

”It seems like it. Guodong is good-looking, it’s normal for Xue’er to like him.”

”Yes, the young man’s character is also good. In our village for two years, many families think highly of him.”

Lu Fengzhen was a bit lost in thought when she saw Lv Guodong, remembering Mr. Lv.

Thinking back now, she felt she was so naive and ridiculous. She didn’t even know his name, she just fell for his looks.

Mr. Lv indeed looked good, but ever since being with Li Yunqiao, his appearance seemed to fade in her mind.

”Fifth Aunt, is it suitable for us to make dumplings for lunch?”

”Why wouldn’t it be suitable? Making dumplings is great.

Fengzhen, your second brother-in-law’s family is really good; you must maintain a good relationship with them, so you won’t need to buy food. How many times have they sent you fine grains?”

”Isn’t that true? I heard from Old Li that his second brother’s family isn’t well-off, yet they often send us grains. They’re really kind. Since I joined this family, I haven’t seen Old Li give much to his second brother’s family.”

”In the future, no matter what Xiao Li gives, don’t be unsatisfied.”

”I understand, I’m not a petty person.”

The mother and daughter worked together kneading dough, chopping meat, and dicing cabbage.

Guodong and Li Xue entered her elder brother’s room and saw a sweetly sleeping child on the bed.

”Guodong. Look at him, he looks like my dad.”

”Yes, he’s really handsome.”

”Haha, even after looking at Shi Xian, you think he’s good-looking?”

”It’s different. Shi Xian is refined. What’s this child’s name?”

”I don’t even know. I’m such an unqualified aunt, I don’t know what my elder nephew’s name is.”

”You’re not home, so that’s normal, isn’t it? You’ll find out this time.”

The two leaned close, whispering softly for fear of waking the baby on the bed.

It was the first time Guodong was so close to Li Xue, and his ears slowly turned red.

”Guodong, do you have childhood photos? I bet you were even more good-looking than Shi Xian back then.

Jing Chu is very pretty, but I think Feifei won’t be any less pretty than Jing Chu in the future.”

”In my recollection, Jing Chu wasn’t as beautiful at this age as Feifei.”

”Feifei completely inherited all the good qualities from Master Wei and Teacher Jiang. I’ve never seen a child like her.”

Guodong suddenly held Li Xue’s hand, his eyes glittering as he looked at her, ”When we get married and have kids in the future, I’m sure they’ll be very good-looking too.”

Li Xue blushed instantly at Guodong’s words.

The two innocent kids held hands tightly, both blushing as they looked at each other, seeing only one another.

Guodong, being a boy, used more strength, and Li Xue followed his lead, suddenly ending up in Guodong’s embrace.

As they leaned against each other, they both clearly heard the other’s pounding heartbeat.

This was their first intimate contact beyond holding hands.

Excitement made Guodong’s arms tighten even more. Li Xue obediently lay in Guodong’s arms.

Guodong was one seventy-five, Li Xue was one sixty, and together, they looked so harmonious.

”Xue’er.”

”Hmm.”

Li Xue looked up with confused eyes at the boy she liked, her eyes full of affection.

Guodong looked down at the girl in his arms, feeling that she was prettier than his sister.

Li Xue suddenly stood on tiptoe and kissed Guodong’s cheek.

Both felt a tingle all over.

Guodong’s eyes brightened, lowering his head further, he softly pecked the soft lips of his girlfriend.

So that’s how soft they were, Guodong licked his lips, tasting a bit sweet.

The two simply held each other, looking into each other’s eyes.

”I like you.”

”I like you.”

They spoke at the same time, seeing each other’s blushing faces.

The teenage boy and girl, pure and innocent, held each other closely, their affection intensifying.

After the meeting ended, Secretary Wu informed Li Yunqiao that his daughter was visiting with a boy and suggested he go home for lunch.

Li Yunqiao checked his watch, seeing an hour left before finishing work, ”Xiao Wu, anything else?”

”No, there’s nothing scheduled in the afternoon either.”

”Then I’ll head home first. If anything comes up, reach out to me.”

”Yes.”

Li Yunqiao thought about his daughter bringing a boy home as he biked along. Unlike Li Yungui, Li Yunqiao was a romantic at heart and thought it was normal for his daughter to have a boyfriend.

When he reached home, a handsome young man opened the door. Just by his appearance, Li Yunqiao gave him seventy points.

”Vice Mayor Li.” Guodong was still a bit nervous.

Li Yunqiao nodded with a smile and wheeled his bike into the courtyard.

At that moment, Li Xue came out. ”Dad.”

”You’re back. You’re not dressed warmly enough. Go inside quickly, I’ll join you shortly.”

Guodong observed their father-daughter interaction, finding Vice Mayor Li to be a pleasant man to deal with.

He followed Li Yunqiao into the living room, where Li Xue was already waiting with a beaming smile.

”Both of you, come sit over here.”

Just as they sat down, Lu Fengzhen came out of the kitchen wearing an apron.

”Old Li, you’re back? It’ll be a while longer; Hong Lin and Lihong aren’t back yet.”

”Ah, no rush. I came home early knowing Xue’er was back. You’re not busy today, right?”

Lu Fengzhen blushed and shook her head; even with kids, she still blushed occasionally.

She retreated to the kitchen, leaving space for the father and daughter.

”Dad, let me introduce my boyfriend, Lv Guodong.

He’s one of the educated youth sent to the countryside, currently in our village.”

”Vice Mayor Li, hello, I’m Lv Guodong from T City, an educated youth, sixteen years old. I came here with my twin sister and we still have our father back home.” Guodong stood up excitedly, speaking nervously.

Watching the nervous young man, Li Yunqiao felt a bit of regret, never having experienced such a moment himself.

”Haha, hello, don’t be nervous, sit down and talk.

I remember you now. Are you a relative of Xiao Wei’s family? Were you assigned to the Jin Family Village before?”

Guodong sat properly across from Li Yunqiao. ”Yes, we started at the Jin Family Village when we arrived and transferred to the Li Family Village last year.

We’re not related to Aunt Jiang, but my dad is friends with her. Aunt Jiang and Uncle Yang arranged for my sister and me to come.”

Li Yunqiao nodded, understanding now. His young wife had once liked this boy’s father; what a fate it was! Now the two children were together.
