Rebirth in the 80s: The Scholar Wife is Cute Chapter 55 - 55 55 Who is He

Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Who is He? Chapter 55: Chapter 55 Who is He? For Lu Siyuan, the shock of these two plates of at was quite significant; back in the countryside, they couldn’t even bring themselves to eat like this during the New Year.

Two plates of at dishes, filled entirely with chunks of at. As a boy in his growing years, he was quite tempted by the sight but didn’t show it, quietly eating his bowl of noodles without reaching for the dishes.

He Nan placed a piece of at in her bowl and said in a detached voice, “Eat.”

“Oh!”

Shen Mianmian obeyed, eating the at he had served her, and then continued to eat her noodles, head down, strangely mirroring Lu Siyuan’s behavior.

Seeing that both were only eating their noodles without taking any at, He Nan’s eyebrows creased, and his voice turned cold, “Do I need to serve it to you piece by piece?”

“…”

Both of them paused in their eating, then finally dared to reach for the at in the dishes with their chopsticks.

Noticing they seed frightened by him, He Nan pursed his lips but ultimately said nothing more; as long as the at was eaten, that was fine.

The two plates of at were almost entirely eaten by Shen Mianmian and Lu Siyuan. In this era, pigs were raised by farrs without the harm of various feeds, which made the at exceptionally delicious.

Having lived for several decades spanning two lifetis, this was the most lavish al Shen Mianmian had ever had.

Before Gu Jianli died in her past life, she had always been helping Zhou Siyu with her children, tightly scrimping on every month’s living expenses, offering any bit of at she bought to Zhou Siyu’s two kids.

During holidays and festivals, the Gu Family’s parents never let her join the dining table.

In their eyes, she was the sinner who had run away on her wedding night, leading to Gu Jianli’s paralysis in bed.

With her timid personality, she could only silently bear everything.

“Boss, how much is it?”

Lu Siyuan’s voice pulled Shen Mianmian back to reality.

The shop owner, wearing an apron, ca over, wiping his hands on it and smiling, “Exactly five yuan.”

A brief twitch appeared on Lu Siyuan’s lips; those five yuan would require him to sell three to four small bamboo baskets. Yet, he did not like to take advantage of others. Although young, the dignity a man should have was beginning to show in him.

He took out a stack of change from his pocket and was counting it when He Nan straightforwardly handed a five-yuan note to the shop owner.

“…” Lu Siyuan paused for a mont, then silently put the money back into his pocket, vowing that one day, he too would earn a lot of money.

After leaving the noodle shop, He Nan spoke indifferently, “Wait here for a mont; I’ll go get the car.”

As soon as he left, Lu Siyuan couldn’t help but ask again, “Who is he?”

“He’s a friend of the village chief’s son, nad He Nan.” Shen Mianmian dared to speak his na only when He Nan wasn’t there.

Lu Siyuan expressed doubt at Shen Mianmian’s words, “A friend of the village chief’s son, why would he be so familiar with you?” It didn’t seem like there should be any connection between them and the village chief’s son’s friends.

Seeing what he was thinking, Shen Mianmian reassured him straightforwardly, “Don’t worry! He’s not a bad person; he used to be a soldier.”

The mont Lu Siyuan heard that He Nan had once been a soldier, the light in his eyes suddenly changed.

Soldiers, in everyone’s hearts, were representatives of justice, embodying sacredness and glory, especially the children of this era, who adored soldiers even more.

“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Just before, his attitude towards the People’s Liberation Army wasn’t very friendly.

Realizing this guy admired soldiers, a glint appeared in Shen Mianmian’s eye, knowing how to handle him in the future.

“I wanted to remind you, but I was afraid of bringing up He Nan’s painful past, so I hesitated to speak.”
