Capítulo 26: You're Really Kind
Editor: Henyee Translations
For children from poor families, sugar was a luxury. In order to let his younger brother taste the sweetness of the autumn pear soup, the man shamelessly came to ask Lan Hui for some.
Upon hearing the man's words, a hint of impatience and disdain flashed across Lan Jun's eyes. She immediately wanted to reject him.
Her autumn pear soup was specially brewed for Wei Luan. It was already good enough for these bumpkins to have a bowl to drink, but they actually dared to ask her for more. They were simply shameless!
However, Lan Hui quickly realized that Wei Luan was still beside her. If she rejected this man directly, it might make her seem cold and heartless.
At the thought of this, Lan Hui swallowed her rejection and squeezed out a kind and gentle smile. "Of course. You can have this bowl of soup!"
The man's eyes lit up. He carefully took the autumn pear soup from Lan Hui and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Lan Hui. You're so kind!"
Lan Hui was very satisfied with the man's praise.
By now, Wei Luan would know that she was a gentle and kind girl. Perhaps he was already regretting his cold attitude towards her.
However, it was a pity that Wei Luan did not accept her autumn pear soup. It seemed like she had to quickly draw the line between her and Jing Yan. She must never interact with Jing Yan again. It would be troublesome if Wei Luan continued to misunderstand.
"The two of you can send the bowls and metal buckets back. Wash them clean and put them away." The autumn pear soup was quickly distributed. Lan Hui instructed the two people from the production team to send the things back.
She walked towards the foot of the mountain and prepared to complain to her mother.
Today, Chunxiu had accused Lan Hui of taking away the green beans and rock sugar at home. Although Lan Hui had also humiliated Chunxiu at that time, she felt that it was not enough.
Who did Chunxiu think she was? How dare she criticize her?
After her rebirth, Lan Hui did not intend to suffer any grievances. She would not let go of anyone who dared to go against her.
"Look, Lan Hui is really dressed up today!" Someone teased as they watched Lan Hui walk over the field.
When they heard this, the others also turned their heads and sized up Lan Hui.
"She's beautiful, but I think Lin Yi is the prettiest. She has a slim waist, and her legs are long and straight! Do you remember? She wore a white dress when she first came to the village. She looked like a fairy and I couldn't take my eyes off her!"
"That's right. Why do you think Wei Luan's luck is so good? He's a pauper from a poor family, but he actually married such a beautiful wife. I'm so jealous of him now."
"What's the use of being pretty? Lin Yi likes Jing Yan. Who knows, she might have an affair one day. Do you want a wife who loves to cheat?"
"Certainly not. I'd rather pass."
...
"Sister Ying, Lan Hui is 18 years old this year, right? Has her marriage been decided? Do you want me to introduce some boys?" A middle-aged woman with white hair gave Lan Hui's mother a fawning smile.
"What would you know? Lan Hui is dating an educated youth. She's going to marry into the city in the future. How can she like farmers!" A thin woman beside her said mockingly without looking up.
"Du Hong, don't talk nonsense. Lan Hui and Jing Yan are just good friends. Are you trying to ruin her reputation by saying this?" Lan Hui's mother, Guang Ying, immediately retorted.
Lan Hui originally had a good relationship with Jing Yan. The family also had every intention to let the two of them continue to develop their relationship. Perhaps in the end, Lan Hui would really be able to marry into the city. If that happened, it would be glorious for them.
For some reason, a few days ago, Lan Hui suddenly asked them not to mention her and Jing Yan in front of outsiders.
"Dad, Mom, I don't like Jing Yan that much. I won't marry him either. Remember this." Lan Hui's tone was very firm and her expression was very serious.
Although they did not know why their daughter would give up on such a good man like Jing Yan, Lan Hui insisted, so they could only listen to their daughter. After all, they had always doted on their youngest daughter the most.
"Good friends?" Du Hong seemed to have heard a joke. "If she and Jing Yan were just good friends, why would Lin Yi be so angry that she jumped into the river? Ever since Jing Yan came to our village, Lan Hui keeps going to the educated youth dormitory. It's an open secret, right?"
It was obvious that Du Hong did not like Lan Hui. However, the women around her did not understand why Du Hong's attitude towards Lan Hui had suddenly changed. Du Hong had often praised Lan Hui for being beautiful and smart. She had even said that she wanted Lan Hui to be her daughter-in-law.
