Chapter 526: Chapter 527 Sister Flowers Educated Youth 44_1

Shen Jie was at a loss for words. Could this be what they call true love?

She had originally thought about sowing some discord, but it turned out that this person really had such a deep filter for Gao Jian.

In her eyes, Gao Jian was all sorts of wonderful. Anyway, since someone was already deeply mired in it, there was no need for her to intervene.

Feng Dan said softly, "If possible, I wish I wouldn’t have ended up like this."

To become a madwoman for a man, just the thought was terrifying.

"You were a sent-down youth on a farm, with a salary and food. You don’t know what we experienced in the countryside."

Shen Yuan thought back to her days in the village and felt a sense of a life worse than death, "If you had applied back then..."

"Can you not bring that up? If we must talk about the past, I wish I had never pitied you, always trying to give you a hand."

"I should have been like the other girls." Everyone else had all sorts of dislikes towards Shen Yuan.

The original owner was brainwashed by Shen Yuan, believing that the relatives looked down on the poor when, in fact, the relatives’ disdain for Shen Yuan was likely due to her family’s actions.

Shen Yuan didn’t expect Shen Jie to respond to her words, just like before, she kept saying who looked down on whom.

Unexpectedly, Shen Jie actually spoke up, and of course, her words were far from polite.

"Shen Jie, how can you be like this?" Shen Yuan was upset.

"What did I do? You only remember me when you’re in trouble."

She turned over, preparing to rest, already imagining that today’s events would spread by tomorrow.

Such a headache, truly a headache. Having a cousin like this was destined to cause finger-pointing.

Shen Yuan was unaware of the troubles Shen Jie had due to these events. Currently, she too was anxious about something.

"You mustn’t let your parents know about this," Shen Yuan worried that Shen Jie might tattle.

"It depends on how you behave, and do you think no one will write home about your actions?"

"You must not forget that there are many fellow villagers on the farm. With today’s commotion, think about it, how long would it take to spread across the entire farm?"

"And then, how long would it take to spread to the surrounding villages?"

"After that, how long would it take for a letter to get back home and for your parents to find out after matching the story with you?"

"Probably around four or five months." News travels that fast.

Shen Jie felt that actually, the village hadn’t intended to blow things out of proportion. Once they did, the village would also lose face.

But Shen Yuan, in her effort to raise money, had let the situation escalate, causing a massive stir.

Shen Jie glanced at the distressed Shen Yuan and could tell that the child was genuinely frightened silly.

That was good, at least there was someone to rein her in a bit. If there was no one to keep her in check at all, who knew how long she would keep causing trouble.

Shen Yuan, thinking about receiving a scolding letter from home by June, felt a massive headache brewing.

"No matter, right now I’m a sent-down youth in the Northeast, and they’ve never really interfered with me."

"Let them scold all they want, I’ll just pretend I don’t know."

After all, apart from scolding her in letters, what else could they do?

They would definitely not trek all the way to the Northeast just to give her a proper scolding.

However, she had to eventually let her family know about the situation. Right now, Shen Yuan’s consideration was to finalize her marriage to Gao Jian.

Then she would slowly analyze with Gao Jian how they could support his mother and his younger brother and sister.

Anyway, she definitely couldn’t continue like now, where the moment they said they needed money on that end, they’d busily start gathering money on this one.

They also needed to understand the logic behind earning money and not just rely on Gao Jian.

"I’m going to register for marriage with Gao Jian." Yes, no matter what Gao Jian would do, she was definitely going to marry him.

Right when he was at his most vulnerable and most helpless, she had to let him know that no matter what, she was always behind him.

Marry Gao Jian? Right in the midst of such turmoil? Shen Jie gave Shen Yuan a thumbs-up, "It really is true love."

Although the charges weren’t heavy, any discerning person knew that Gao Jian would definitely be very busy.

Wanting to do private work on the side during work hours, sneaking out like before, was absolutely impossible.

As for Gao Jian off work, he probably wouldn’t have time to fish or the energy to climb hills either.

Because he’d be totally busy with no energy to earn extra cash, and with so much debt, Shen Yuan would truly be busy paying it off right after walking through the door.

Feng Dan was already a bit drowsy, about to fall asleep, but then she hadn’t expected that this idiot Shen Yuan was actually planning to marry Gao Jian.

"Congratulations." Shen Jie offered her sincere best wishes.

This man and woman, as shameless as they could be, were cut from the same cloth; since they had already come this far, it was better to resolve the issues internally without causing a scene.

Having received blessings from Shen Jie, Feng Dan casually wished them happiness and a speedy arrival of children.

Hearing Feng Dan’s blessings, Shen Yuan was thrilled, "Thank you."

"Thank you for your blessing." Shen Yuan didn’t expect Feng Dan to offer blessings, "With your blessing, I’m sure I’ll be happy."

See, even a passerby was willing to offer her such heartfelt blessings, while Shen Jie only had a very simple wish.

The contrast was truly stark, "Some people, even relatives, just offer a simple blessing."

Shen Yuan was unhappy, "And no gifts."

In the Northeast here, there were only the two of them, "This is my only marriage, and there are no gifts."

Shen Yuan knew Shen Jie wouldn’t be generous, but the fact that she didn’t plan to give a gift at all was unacceptable to her.

What? She actually expected her to give a wedding gift? Shen Jie was speechless, "No problem, when I get married, you don’t have to give me a gift either."

"I won’t even notify you." She didn’t plan to get married on the farm anyway.

Even though she didn’t know where her future partner was, or where she would study, work, and live in the future.

The only certainty was that they wouldn’t see each other often in the future.

"It’s your business if you don’t notify me, but I’ve already notified you, so you should give me a gift."

Shen Yuan indignantly insisted that certain people should give gifts.

Shen Jie was truly stunned by this robber’s logic, "You notify me and I have to give a gift?"

Shen Jie retorted unapologetically, "If I have to give a gift to everyone I know, I’d run out of money for food and drink."

"By your logic, my letting you stay here and not making you starve outside is my wedding gift to you."

If she really wanted to calculate it, then let’s settle it properly, "Plus the money you owe me, if we convert it to gifts, your engagement, your wedding, having ten children, the gifts for your sixtieth, seventieth, eightieth birthdays, I’ve long since given them to you."

Feng Dan couldn’t help but burst into laughter at the side; what a talent, truly someone who could talk like that.

Feng Dan found it amusing, but to Shen Yuan’s ears, it was infuriating.

She turned over, not wanting to see Shen Jie anymore; she really feared that she might lose control and lash out.
