Chapter 50 Entanglement
"Sister-in-law, if you like to hear stories, you can come to me and I will tell you. Xiaoyun is about to take the high school entrance examination and should spend more time studying."
Huang Chunyan was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Youshuang, you are overthinking it. Xiaoyun's grades have always been very good. It's okay to read some stories."
Guan Youshuang sneered in her heart, those grades are considered good?
She said: "Sister-in-law, you also know that the best way out for girls is to enter college. If you work hard right now, your grades may decline in the sprint period. How can you have the energy to read leisurely books?"
Guan Youshuang continued: "Those who know will say that my sister-in-law loves my sister-in-law so much that she is not even willing to spend the money to buy idle books. Those who don't know think that my sister-in-law has ulterior motives."
Huang Chunyan was so anxious that she jumped off the edge of the bed. He came down and said: "What do you mean by this? When I came here, Xiaoyun was still a child. I always loved her very much, and my heart for her was the same as for Yuanyuan. I saw that Xiaoyun liked those books, so I just bought it for her, can you tell me that you have ulterior motives?"
If she hadn't known the plot of the original book, Guan Youshuang would have really believed it, but now, she happens to know——
" Don't worry, then our goals are the same, both for Xiaoyun's good."
She turned around and said to Gu Xiaoyun: "I will take these books first and give them to you after you pass the high school entrance examination. , please review carefully during this time, don’t let me and my sister-in-law down.”
Gu Xiaoyun nodded.
Huang Chunyan could not say anything more and had to go out angrily.

Early the next morning.
When Guan Youshuang got up, she found that Gu Xiaoyun was still at home. It was Monday, shouldn't she go to school?
After asking for a long time, she hesitated and said that she was not feeling well today and asked for leave.
Guan Youshuang looked at her suspiciously and said, "You knew last Friday that you were not feeling well today, so you asked for leave in advance?"
Gu Xiaoyun blushed like a tomato and was speechless for a long time.
"Well, since you have asked for leave, just follow me to the county seat, and I will take you to the County No. 1 Middle School."
Gu Xiaoyun was in a dilemma.
Last Friday, she finally took today's leave, just to finish reading the newly bought novel. Last night, the second sister-in-law took away all her books, but she was not afraid, there was still one hidden in her box.
But now, all plans are in ruins.
"Do you want to change clothes or something? If not, we'll leave now."
"But, second sister-in-law, I'm really feeling a little unwell." Gu Xiaoyun was still struggling.
"What's wrong with you? Is it a stomachache or something? How about I take you to the health center for a checkup first? I'll take the shuttle bus after that."
Gu Xiaoyun is completely at his wits end and can only give birth to nothing. Follow Guan Youshuang out lovingly.
The second sister-in-law is really busy. Their middle school is not allowed to take the entrance examination for No. 1 Middle School. This is a rule in history. Does she still want to change the school's decision?
Huang Chunyan had just packed cakes for her son's books and urged him to go to school quickly. When he learned that they were going to the county town, she couldn't help but said: "Youshuang, everyone is plowing the land at this stage. What about you?" The soil is not very good, so you need to plow it a few more times. Oh, by the way, we have been farming together with Xiaoling’s family. Do you want me to help you ask them if they have time in the past few days? "< br>
“Without my sister-in-law, I don’t plan to grow crops on that land.”
“What can we do without growing crops in the land?”
Wang Huiying walked out of the main room and said while tying her headscarf: "You worry about it, Youshuang has her own ideas. Go and make some egg soup and let Youshuang and Xiaoyun drink it before going outside. No different than at home, you need money to eat.”
Huang Chunyan was instantly unhappy.
Why is this mother-in-law so partial now?
She reluctantly walked to the kitchen.
"Mom, we are not going to eat. Xiaoyun has always wanted to eat tofu nao. I will take her to the market to eat it." "Okay, you guys pay attention to safety on the road. Have you got the phone number of Er Rong's office? ? Remember to ask Er Rong if you need anything? "
"I know, Mom. "

The morning of market day is always full of trouble. It creates a unique liveliness and vitality. At this time, the orange-red sun peeked out quietly, and the stall owners had already arrived at their familiar locations and began to decorate their stalls.
Some of them unloaded baskets filled with goods from tricycles, while others moved wooden boxes and cloth bags from donkey carts or handcarts.
Gradually, various stalls gradually took shape: vegetables and fruits shipped from other places were neatly arranged in bright colors and eye-catching.
The big domestic rooster is kept in a bamboo cage and makes noise from time to time. The pigs, sheep and other livestock are tied aside, waiting for buyers to come forward to bargain.
In front of the cloth stall, colorful cotton cloth is spread out, attracting women to choose materials suitable for making new clothes.
At the small hardware stall, there is everything from hoes and shovels to nails and locks. Men are selecting the tools and daily necessities they need.
In addition, there are small vendors selling cigarettes, candies, snacks, and daily necessities.
The crowds of people going to the market gradually gathered, bustling and noisy bargaining sounds came and went.
The men mostly wear blue or gray tunic suits, liberation hats on their heads, and hold simple cigarette bags or cigarettes in their hands.
The women were dressed in printed cloths and with brightly colored headscarves on their heads, holding children in their arms or carrying baskets, with smiles on their faces and a calculating light in their eyes.
Children shuttled among the crowd, either watching curiously, or pulling at their parents' clothes with excitement, asking for candy or toys.
While people are selecting goods, they will also get together to chat, exchange farm work experiences, and discuss major and minor matters in the village.
Guan Youshuang took Gu Xiaoyun to sit down at the snack stall. Seeing so many delicious foods, she couldn't help but order two of each: two bowls of tofu puffs, two bowls of fried cakes, two bowls of stuffed skin, and two bowls of jelly.
“Sister-in-law, you want so much and we can’t finish it, right?”
“We can finish it.”
The guests at other tables couldn’t help but look at Guan Youshuang , Can such a thin girl really eat so much?
I have to say that the oil-splashed chili peppers made by this stall owner are really delicious, spicy and fragrant. Guan Youshuang put in two tablespoons and still felt that it was not enough, so she added another one on top of the stuffed skin that was almost finished. Spoon chili.
“You don’t want to get married, why are you still pestering me?”
“I didn’t say I didn’t want to get married, I just wanted to wait a few years before getting married, and I know you can’t let me go either. , right?”
“I can’t let you go.”
“Otherwise you wouldn’t have come out today.”
An overly familiar voice!
Guan Youshuang looked at it and saw that the sound came from the alley about half a meter wide behind the stall.
Behind this stall is a store that sells chemical fertilizers. However, this store is not open often. It is opened every year during the busy farming season. Behind the fertilizer store is a small courtyard with several large warehouses.
The small alley leads to Xianza Courtyard, and I don’t know where the main entrance of Xianza Courtyard is.
"Xiaoyun, eat first, I'll go take a look." Guan Youshuang wiped her mouth and walked towards the alley.
