Chapter 1076: Chapter 1075: Endless Entanglement 5

After the meal, all those who were due to work went off to their labors, including the energetic Xibao, who followed Father Lu, clutching his own little whip and chanting, "I have a little donkey, I don’t ride it, grandpa does!"

Fubao, on the other hand, kept nodding off, her eyes too sleepy to open. Feng Qingxue carried her to the bed and settled her in.

When Feng Qingxue went out to wash the duck eggs, Qingyun followed her into the kitchen to help.

She squatted by the basin and scrubbed the droppings from the eggs, then after some thought, spoke up, "Sister, pay attention to Acheng’s matter."

"What’s going on with Acheng?" Feng Qingxue felt a stir of concern.

Since Guan Cheng was already of age and very measured in his conduct, she rarely interfered with his actions and behavior, including matters of his marriage, giving him the utmost respect and freedom.

Qingyun thought for a moment, then detailed to her sister how Wang Lingzhi had repeatedly pestered Guan Cheng.

"That Wang Lingzhi has no shame, Acheng has rejected her many times, yet she keeps pestering him. Her family once sent Great Auntie and the Young Auntie to see Acheng, hoping to secure him as a son-in-law who comes to live with his wife’s family. Although it was their request, Great Auntie and the Young Auntie told Acheng not to agree, for our Lu Family would never let him become a live-in son-in-law in the absence of a wife. If that really happened, your and my brother-in-law’s spine would be snapped by others."

Besides, given Guan Cheng’s good looks and abilities, even without the support of the Lu Family, he could establish his own household and business. Who within ten miles and eight villages didn’t know that there was a young and promising Doctor Guan in the Wanglou Brigade?

The Lu family members were treated especially well, initially riding on Feng Qingxue’s coattails, now benefiting from Guan Cheng’s.

Feng Qingxue hummed in agreement, "With this matter, Xiaoyun, you a young girl shouldn’t get involved. I’ll discuss it with Acheng before making a decision."

When Jin Cuihua came to propose marriage, she knew Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng were seen as highly eligible bachelors, thinking at most the families of the women were interested in the boys’ appearance, character, and abilities. She didn’t expect it to involve the personal feelings of those concerned.

Wang Lingzhi? Feng Qingxue’s impression of her was vague, barely recalling a fair-skinned, delicate-looking girl.

She appeared demure and ladylike, yet her character turned out to be so unbecoming.

It’s not wrong to like someone; everyone has someone they fall in love with at first sight and then deeper upon further acquaintance. But it’s wrong to persistently pursue them against their will, causing them life troubles.

Feng Qingxue intended to discuss it with Guan Cheng in the evening, but he dined with a group of relocated elderly that night and left at dawn the next day to pick fruits and vegetables, hurrying them off to the supply and marketing cooperative for sale, along with the garlic loaded the previous day.

The state supported the purchase and distribution of agricultural products, but with no one to deliver them to the city, they needed to bother Guan Cheng and others.

Feng Qingxue thought to herself, she could still ask Guan Cheng for details and make a decision when he returned; Wang Lingzhi had pestered him for three years already. Although she was concerned Wang Lingzhi might take extreme measures if she couldn’t have Guan Cheng, it was unlikely to be an immediate issue. She did not anticipate that Wang Lingzhi was more anxious than she had imagined, intercepting him on his way to the cooperative in the wee hours.

"Acheng, let me go with you to sell vegetables!" Wang Lingzhi felt herself to be exceptionally diligent and understanding, "I have been educated, can use an abacus, and keep accounts; this way you won’t be so flustered."

To show her best self, Wang Lingzhi specifically wore her newly made clothes, a pink blouse with red flower patterns and black trousers.
