Chapter 79

“Open your mouth…” Du Yimeng said as she peeled off the wrapper of the White Rabbit candy and passed it directly to Yu Lang’s mouth. The latter swallowed it without thinking, and his lips brushed against her fingers.

He looked at her with strange eyes, but when he saw that there was no strange expression on her face, he sighed silently in his heart.

He has abandoned his principles and taken the initiative like this, so why doesn’t she react at all?

In fact, what he didn’t know was that Du Yimeng was not as indifferent as he seemed. As soon as he put down his hand, the finger trembled slightly.

But she didn’t think much about it and thought it was an accident. The main reason was that he was too serious on weekdays and no one would think about it in that way, at least not her.

“In fact, there is no need for us to endure hardships. No one will forget the hard life in the past. Even after decades, the Chinese people will still remember it.” Du Yimeng dreamed that the Chinese people in later generations would never forget the national hatred and family feuds, so there was no need to engage in these formalities and waste food. After all, the porridge also contained corn paste and dried sweet potatoes.

She guessed that Secretary Wan was ill at the end of every year just to avoid eating this. What a smart guy.

Secretary Wan: A good comrade is one who sees everything but does not speak out.

“Well, do you have any more candy?” Yu Lang finished the candy in his mouth. The numb feeling in his mouth was much better, but his stomach was still sour.

As for this form, you have to do it. If everyone does it but your unit doesn’t, your superiors will have opinions.

“Here…” Du Yimeng handed him the two White Rabbit candies in her pocket. He gave her these candies, but she refused. However, his reason was more powerful.

He said that no one in the Yu family likes to eat candy, and it would be a waste to throw it away. Not to mention in this era, even in later generations, people should not waste things like this. Why don’t they like to eat it anymore?

Also, if you don’t like to eat it, why buy it?

At that time, she saw him squeeze through the crowd to the counter to buy it in the department store in Jinshi. It was not easy.

Yu Lang took the two candies with regret. Did he want to eat the candies?

“I’m going to get something…” After saying this, Yu Lang went into the office next door, which had become his office.

When I came back, I had something wrapped in newspaper in my hand. It looked big and a bit fluffy.

“This is the scarf I bought in Jinshi last time. My family thinks white is not resistant to dirt, and it would be a waste to just leave it at home gathering dust. I’ll give it to you!” Yu Lang handed the thing in his hand to Du Yimeng and said in a flat tone.

“Then I’ll give you the money.” Du Yimeng was sure because Moon Lee was wearing the green scarf.

They went to buy the scarves together. At that time, she was thinking that the green scarf was really ugly, but who knew that it would be wrapped around Moon Lee’s neck.

Wearing green on your body will make you look the most handsome wherever you go in this era. But if you wear a green scarf, the concept is completely different.

Moon Lee: She had no choice…

“You can’t buy it now even if you have money.” Yu Lang’s words made Du Yimeng, who had just handed over the money, take back his hand.

“Then what do you want to exchange?” Du Yimeng didn’t think much about it. He knew that the goods in the supply and marketing cooperative had been sold out in the past few days. The New Year was approaching, and as long as the family conditions allowed, they would find a way to buy something new for the home.

“Why don’t you give me the scarf around your neck? It’s the same color as my dad’s scarf, and no one will say anything.” When Yu Lang said this, his heart involuntarily skipped a beat.

Fortunately, he always kept a stern face and didn’t let her notice anything unusual.

“I’ve been wearing this scarf for a month or so. Don’t regret it.” Du Yimeng hesitated for a moment and quickly took off the scarf from her neck.

It really hurts her eyes to see Yu Hongru wearing the same scarf as her every day!

Fortunately, scarves in this era are only available in a few colors, so people don’t think of them as couple’s scarves.

She also wanted to buy a brightly colored scarf, but unfortunately she had no internal contacts at the supply and marketing cooperative, so she couldn’t buy it at all.

Yu Lang told her with his actions that he would not regret it.

He reached out and took it. The gray scarf still had the residual warmth from her body, so he wrapped it around his neck directly. It was quite warm.

Du Yimeng looked at her scarf on Yu Lang’s neck and felt strange at first. But when her eyes fell on the white scarf, the feeling of something wrong in her heart had long been forgotten.

Ah… finally I don’t have to wear the same thing as Director Yu anymore.

…

“Why does your scarf look familiar? Didn’t you say you don’t like gray?” Yu Lang had just returned to the Yu family, and Yu Hongru noticed the gray scarf around his neck at a glance.

Yu Hongru was very puzzled. His wife bought two scarves, one gray and one black. He wanted the black one, but this brat insisted on snatching the black one from him.

There was no way. He couldn’t snatch the things from his son, so he gave it away.

But this brat got the black scarf he wanted, but he didn’t wear it and just left it at home every day. Isn’t that infuriating?

When he was a child, he would fix his belt all the time.

He remembered that Du Yimeng’s scarf was the same gray as his, so every time he saw her scarf, he would subconsciously look back to see if his scarf was lost.

“Alang, why does your scarf look like it’s not new?” Moon Lee noticed something was wrong at first glance and asked Yu Lang with a puzzled look on her face.

Although Du Yimeng only wears it when she goes out, after all, this scarf has been bought for a month or so, and it is still different from a new one.

“Mom and Dad, I’m going to go into the house first.” Yu Lang said nothing, pretending he didn’t hear anything, and turned to go into the house. He felt that as long as he escaped today’s questioning, his family would not bring up the scarf anymore.

This was the experience he had accumulated since childhood. His parents were always busy. Only when his brother and sister were about to starve to death did they remember their existence.

“Old Yu, do you think it’s possible that Alang’s scarf belongs to Dameng?” Moon Lee asked meaningfully.

Yu Lang, who had just walked into the room, happened to hear this. He couldn’t help but sigh that his mother was really smart and guessed it right away.

He paused for a moment, then quickly closed the door. As long as he couldn’t hear anything, he would know nothing.

“Impossible, the two of them are under my nose every day, and nothing happens.” Yu Hongru sighed helplessly. This boy’s ability to pursue female comrades is not even half as good as his, which is also sad.

“I actually like Dameng very much, what a pity! I heard that the Du family is arranging a marriage for Dameng these days!” Said Li Saifeng regretfully, but she didn’t know that Yu Lang heard it through the door.

“Da Meng will be 21 years old after the Chinese New Year. It is normal for the Du family to arrange a marriage for her.” Yu Hongru said loudly. He said it deliberately for someone to hear to see if that person was anxious.
