Chapter 107 : Han Zhenyu is back

The two were delighted to hear this and quickly thanked him, “Thank you, Grandpa.”

“My name is Xiang Guoqiang.”

“My name is Luo Jie.”

“Okay, Xiaoqiang, Xiaojie, I remember it.” The old man, afraid he would forget, repeated the names several times and then said, “My eldest grandson is Sun Dashu, and my second grandson is Sun Dazhuang.”

“Okay, Grandpa, we got it.” The two didn’t expect to receive such a reward just for giving a few snacks. They felt that the people in the countryside were truly simple and sincere.

The child who had just thanked Luo Jie also said loudly, “I remember your names. We ate your snacks and will tell our family when we go back. Let my father and second uncle take care of you.”

Xiang Guoqiang and Luo Jie were pleased to hear this. The child looked only about five or six years old, but they didn’t expect him to be so loyal.

Luo Jie smiled and teased him, “What’s your father’s name?”

The child puffed out his chest and proudly listed his father’s and uncle’s names, “My father’s name is Han Liang, my second uncle’s name is Han Lei, and my youngest uncle’s name is Han Gang.”

Xiang Guoqiang smiled and patted his head, “What’s your name?”

Before the child could answer, another little boy next to him immediately said, “His name is Goudan.”

When Xiao Goudan heard his companion call him by his nickname, he said angrily, “That’s my nickname! My real name is Han Jun.”

Xiang Guoqiang and Luo Jie laughed at this.

Even the elderly people nearby were laughing so hard their teeth showed.

When Han Zhenyu returned from the city on his bicycle, he saw several people sitting at the village entrance, laughing.

As he got closer, he saw two unfamiliar young men along with some elderly people from the village.

He had planned to ride straight through, but he saw Grandpa Sun .

He got off his bike and greeted, “Second Grandpa, I’m playing here.”

Grandpa Sun looked at him carefully and smiled, “Ah, it’s Zhenyu. I’m old now, can’t work anymore. The children don’t let me go out to the fields, so I just sit here waiting.”

Han Zhenyu smiled and comforted him, “Second Grandpa, you’ve worked hard all your life, now it’s time to enjoy your life at home.”

“You won’t let me do anything, so I’m anxious,” Grandpa Sun said with a laugh, shaking his head. “Zhenyu, why are you off work so early today?”

“Second Grandpa, I have something to do. I’ll go back to the factory later.”

Han Zhenyu exchanged a few words with him, nodded to Guoqiang and Luo Jie, then rode his bike home.

Xiang Guoqiang and Luo Jie smiled back at him, watched him ride off, and then asked Grandpa Sun, “Grandpa Sun, was that man from our team?”

Grandpa Sun smiled and nodded, “He’s from our team, but his household registration has been moved to the city. I heard from my grandson that Zhenyu is now a regular employee at our Nanping Machinery Factory. That boy is really promising.”

When they heard the name, both of them thought it sounded familiar.

Suddenly, they realized wasn’t this the male lead those old educated youth and Su Xieyun were talking about at dinner yesterday?

But judging by his demeanor and manner, he didn’t seem like such a bad person.

Plus, Grandpa Sun spoke highly of him.

The two were now more certain that those old educated youth and Su Xieyun must have lied.

Luo Jie asked, “Grandpa Sun, does the guy named Zhenyu who just passed by live in the yard at the foot of the mountain?”

“Yes, yes, that’s right. The house was just built not long ago.”

Grandpa Sun stroked his beard and continued, “When the house was being built, my son and oldest grandson went to help. My oldest grandson is very close to Zhenyu.”

“My dad and second uncle also went,” Xiao Goudan said proudly. “My second uncle and Uncle Zhenyu are very close. When the house was built, Zhenyu’s wife even invited my mom and second aunt to visit her home.”

“I went with them at that time, and Zhenyu’s wife gave me a lot of candy and snacks, which were delicious.”

As Xiao Goudan spoke, he drooled a little and put his finger in his mouth.

Luo Jie took his hand away and opened his snack package again, preparing to share with the children.

But Grandpa Sun stopped him immediately, saying, “Xiao Jie, just let them have a taste, and you can take the rest back.”

Xiao Goudan quickly stood up and said, “We can’t eat your food anymore, or we’ll get beaten when we get back.” He then waved to the drooling kids, saying, “Brothers, let’s go pick some wild vegetables.”

Luo Jie saw the children running away and packed up the snacks.

On the way back, Xiang Guoqiang asked Luo Jie, “What do you think of what everyone discussed last night?”

Luo Jie said bluntly, “Those old educated youth must have lied. That Su Xieyun is not a good person either. In the future, don’t deal with them too much to avoid trouble.”

Xiang Guoqiang nodded, “Su Xieqiu must have had a feud with those female educated youth in the past, otherwise, they wouldn’t have slandered her for no reason.”

“We just got here and we’re completely in the dark. Let’s not meddle in other people’s business,” Luo Jie thought for a moment and said, “Let’s go to work early tomorrow and see if we can work separately from these educated youth. It would be best if we can work with Grandpa Sun’s family.”

When he arrived, his father told him to keep a low profile and not cause trouble.

In two years, he would find an opportunity to bring him back to the city.

So, he didn’t want to get involved with the Youth League Institute or those nosy people, so as not to be held back in the future.

Xiang Guoqiang agreed with his idea and nodded, saying, “Okay.”

When Han Zhenyu passed by the Youth League Home, the gate was open, and there was a lot of chattering coming from inside, as if many people were talking.

He rode straight past without stopping or even looking at the Youth League Home.

Qin Yao and Zhang Juan were collecting clothes when they saw a figure riding a bicycle pass by. They walked to the door curiously and looked out.

Han Zhenyu had already ridden far away, and they only saw his back.

After a while, the man turned down the path on the right.

Zhang Juan said in surprise, “Hey, look, he seems to have entered the yard at the foot of the mountain.”

Qin Yao shouted excitedly, “Su Xieyun, your cousin’s man is back.”

Su Xieyun, who was lying on the kang eating snacks, immediately put on her shoes and came out when she heard her words.

She was very curious about how Su Xieqiu’s notorious man looked.

“Where is he?” she asked.

“He’s already entered the yard and is riding a new bicycle,” Zhang Juan said with some envy in her tone.

Although Zhang Juan was from Hai City, her family wasn’t well off because she had many siblings, so she couldn’t afford luxury items like bicycles.

She didn’t expect that the workers in this mountain valley lived better than the people in Hai City.

No wonder Su Xieyun’s cousin insisted on marrying him despite his bad reputation, it was because she was attracted by his conditions.

Su Xieyun felt her trip had been wasted since she didn’t even see the person. She complained, “Why didn’t you call me earlier?”

“If you want to see him so badly, why don’t you just go to your cousin’s house and see him?” Zhang Juan retorted after seeing her blame her. She rolled her eyes and went back inside.

Su Xieyun felt a bit embarrassed but didn’t want to argue with her about it.

She glared at Zhang Juan fiercely before looking at Qin Yao, who slept in the same room with her. “Yaoyao, did you see him? What does he look like?”

Qin Yao shook her head. “I didn’t see him. He had already passed by when we came out.”

After that, she rolled her eyes and asked Su Xieyun in a low voice, “Do you want to visit your cousin’s house? I can go with you.”

Although Su Xieyun was very curious, she shook her head.

She had been turned away yesterday and had a falling out with that damn girl.

She would never shamelessly visit her again, and she was also afraid of being embarrassed.

If others knew that she was associating with someone like that, how would she maintain her good reputation?

It would be better to let her Uncle and Aunt handle their embarrassing daughter.

Anyway, she sent a registered letter today.

In a few days, Uncle and Aunt would know about the immoral things their daughter had done.
