Chapter 1079: Chapter 1078: Endless Entanglent 8 Chapter 1079: Chapter 1078: Endless Entanglent 8 Ever since Guan Cheng arrived at the Wanglou Brigade, this was the first ti he had spoken sharply and harshly to soone.
But in the hearts of all the n and boys present, thumbs were raised in approval.
Although Guan Cheng was an outsider and Wang Lingzhi belonged to the Wang family clan, Guan Cheng’s compassionate heart as a dical practitioner was witnessed by everyone. They all knew he was an especially good and promising young man, far better than the proud and arrogant Wang Lingzhi by a thousand miles.
Besides, the Lu family had already rejected Wang Xinlai’s marriage proposal. For Wang Lingzhi to persist in pursuing her was truly shaless.
As for the girl, everyone still thought it better to show her so respect.
Upon hearing Guan Cheng’s words, Wang Lingzhi’s tears started swirling in her eyes. She bit her lower lip and said with a sobbing voice, “Guan Cheng, I like you so much, and this is how you treat ? Is it wrong for to like you? It’s no longer the old feudal society dictated by parental orders and matchmaker’s words, now it’s about equality between n and won, about free love! I like you, I pursue you, how is that shaless? I’m doing this for your benefit, toil away at the Lu family. I want to save you from this misery! With , the people of the Wanglou Brigade won’t reject you anymore, they won’t criticize you for being an outsider, and you’ll soon beco a real part of the Wanglou Brigade!”
“Toil away? Where have your eyes seen toil away?” Guan Cheng scoffed, “Nothing else matters to , but I won’t allow you to speak ill of the Lu Family, not at all!”
That said, he turned to everyone and solemnly declared, “I’m originally an orphan, with both parents deceased, wandering with my brother until we found shelter in a dilapidated temple with nowhere else to go. My brother was sick and starving, running a persistent high fever, barely clinging to life, when my aunt happened by the temple. She saved my brother, and then took us in, giving us a ho, a warm ho. And because of the Wanglou Brigade’s elders’ and fellow villagers’ acceptance and kindness, we no longer had to worry about food and clothing and had the opportunity to go to school! When my aunt is away with the army, the four of us brothers take care of ourselves, washing clothes, cooking, working where needed, attending school where needed, seeking dical care where needed. Tianjun and Tianzhi are no exception. Is this what you call toil?”
Wang Chenglong chid in, “If this is toil, then all the kids in our brigade are toiling. What child doesn’t do so work within their capabilities as they grow up? Either they work in the fields, do housework, or even cut pigweed to earn work points when there’s nothing else to do.”
Even his family’s treasured daughter had to cook and deliver als during the busy farming tis.
Coddled from birth? That didn’t exist in their Wanglou Brigade.
Was Wang Jiao considered coddled from a young age? Everyone knows that, although she changed slightly a few years after her marriage, it was minimal; she was just willing to do so household chores, and over the years, she still worked and earned work points.
The others echoed Wang Chenglong’s sentints, telling Guan Cheng, “Whether it’s toil or not, our own eyes are watching!”
When people chatted in their free ti and the topic of Feng Qingxue ca up, who wouldn’t give her a thumbs up? They all said she was decent and righteous. Having married into the Lu family, she took on the responsibilities of the household, especially in tis when Lu Jiang couldn’t co back, and she took care of everything, both big and small. She looked after the children so well; weren’t they all outstanding now?
There weren’t many who could reach her level.
It’s not just that there are few; it’s extrely rare, especially in these tis of clothing and food shortages. If the children were well-fed and warmly dressed, suffering little, that was all Feng Qingxue’s doing, more than even real parents could achieve.
