A small and short hut made of yellow mud was located in the lonely orchard.

There was a dim oil lamp in the hut, which made the hut look even more desolate. It was in stark contrast to the brightly lit village and the continuous sounds of firecrackers.

The door was open. A tall figure was sitting in front of the oil lamp, reading a book attentively.

She remembered that in her previous life, Li Jianning found her and invited her to take part in tutoring classes in the county, but she scoffed at him.

She laughed at him, saying that he didn't know what he was capable of.

How dare a bumpkin dream of getting into a university? After she married Yang Jinsong, Li Jianning turned grief into strength and buried himself in studying. Later, he was admitted to a normal university and became a teacher in the county.

In this life, he would definitely live a better life!

Tang Yue was shocked when she saw Li Jianning's strong figure.

"Jianning!"

Tang Xing couldn't help running in.

"Hi, Yueyue, Xingxing, why are you here?"

Li Jianning got up, looking stunned.

After all, when he came to the Tang family yesterday to propose marriage, Tang Yue refused him with contempt.

She said that she could get married, but the man should at least have a decent job. He should have his hands and feet intact, and his parents should be alive, and he should get the house ready.

Yet, Li Jianning didn't meet any of these conditions.

His parents had passed away a long time ago. He had retired from the army because of leg disease and had been farming in the village. He had no money, no house, and no healthy body.

It was obvious that she despised him.

After coming back from the Tang family, he lay in bed for a whole day.

At noon, his elder brother sent him two steamed buns, which were still on the plate. Now they were as hard as stones, and they were cracked on the surface.

He felt very upset, but there was nothing he could do.

People struggled upwards. He couldn't blame Tang Yue for this.

"Here is the stuffed bun for you. It's still hot. Hurry up and eat..."

Tang Yue took out a stuffed bun from her arms and stuffed it into Li Jianning's hand, who was standing at the door in a daze.

"What? You don't welcome us?"

Tang Yue pretended to be angry and pouted angrily.

She, who had been reborn, was exactly eighteen years old this year. It was the prime of her life.

A good-looking girl was so attractive even when she was angry.

"No, no, please come in..."

His heart trembled, but he still couldn't figure out what she was thinking.

Li Jianning hurriedly stood aside and welcomed Tang Yue and her sister into the hut.

As soon as she came in, Tang Yue had mixed feelings.

In her previous life, it was in this hut that she and Liu Aizhen set a trap for Li Jianning.

She let the drunk Li Jianning sleep with Liu Aizhen. Li Jianning had no choice but to marry the vicious Liu Aizhen.

After they got married, Li Jianning never smiled again...

In the hut, there was only a simple wooden bed, a small dining table, and two black wooden chairs. On the other side of the Kangtou was the stove for cooking.

Wasn't the living environment a bit too crude?

Especially the small bed, it was made of a thin wooden board and a few bricks under it. When two people were having sex on the bed, it would definitely collapse, right?

At the thought of this, her face suddenly turned red to her ears. Fortunately, the light in the hut was dim, so he definitely couldn't notice it.

What was there to be afraid of? With the Carry-on Space in her hand, she would definitely be able to improve their situation.

"Why don't you eat it? Don't you like it?"

Seeing Li Jianning standing with stuffed bun in his hand and looking at her in a daze, Tang Yue sat down on the Kangtou with Tang Xing in her arms and deliberately shouted.

"Let's get our marriage certificate after the Spring Festival, Jianning!"

Tang Yue stared at Li Jianning and said seriously.

In this life, she could not miss him!

"Ah? Sister, are you really going to marry Jianning? That's great! That's great! You can buy me candy after getting the marriage certificate, right?"

Hearing this, Tang Xing clapped her hands with joy.

Tang Yue simply took out two pieces of milk candy and stuffed them into her sister's mouth.

"You little foodie. How much candy have you eaten? Why are you still so greedy?"

"Are you serious, Yueyue? Have you really agreed?"

Out of excitement, Li Jianning, who was holding stuffed bun in his hand, forgot to stuff it into his mouth.

He reached out to hold Tang Yue's hand. Tang Xing, the third wheel, reached out first and grabbed Li Jianning's big hand.

"Hurry up and eat. The stuffed bun is so delicious!"

As she spoke, Tang Xing couldn't help licking her lips and drooling.

"If you don't eat the stuffed bun, then I won't marry you!"

Tang Yue deliberately said.

"Okay, okay, I'll eat now!"

Li Jianning was so happy that he beamed with smiles. His face turned red. He quickly walked to the small table and sat down. He grabbed the stuffed bun and wolfed it down.

Even if he didn't understand why Tang Yue had changed her attitude so much in just one day, things were developing in a good direction after all. She was willing to be with him and even offered to get the marriage certificates!

Tang Yue put a bag of candy next to his pillow.

"Marriage is a big deal. It's better to inform your elder brother and sister-in-law. When you have time, you can send these candies to your elder brother. Don't worry about the house. After we get married, we can live here for the time being..."

Li Jianning's elder brother, Li Kangning, was an honest man. He often came to deliver things behind his wife's back. Once his wife found out about it, she would scold him harshly. She had smashed countless bowls for this matter.

According to the rumors in the village, Li Kangning and his family had to be on tenterhooks when eating. Most of the porcelain bowls had cracks, and they might accidentally cut their mouths.

After Li Jianning finished eating the two stuffed buns, Tang Yue walked out.

"You're not sending us off?"

Standing in the snow, Tang Yue deliberately tilted her head and looked at Li Jianning.

She couldn't bear to be separated from him. Only with him by her side would she feel at ease.

Moreover, she was going to do something big, and Li Jianning had to support her.

"Okay. Okay..."

Li Jianning hurriedly blew out the oil lamp, closed the door, and walked out.

Tang Yue grabbed Li Jianning's hands and held them tightly.

She felt that Li Jianning was shivering.

She did not say anything. Instead, she held his hands tightly again.

His big hands were hard and warm. Holding his big hands, she became more and more confident.

"My father has gone to the widow's place, Jianning. Come with me and have a look."

Tang Yue said in a slightly timid voice. Her nose twitched and she almost cried.

Her mother was so pathetic. She was timid by nature. Since she married Tang Youde, she had never lived a good life.

If the affair between her father and the widow was to be exposed, would her mother be able to bear it?

It was better to endure short-term pain than prolonged suffering. The worse case scenario was that they divorced. She would live with her mother and younger sister!

An idea came to her mind in an instant.

"I've heard about this. It's indeed unfair to Auntie..."

Li Jianning gently pinched her palm and comforted her in a low voice.

He relaxed a lot.

"Don't worry. I'm here!"

Hearing this, Tang Yue trembled violently. He was here with her!

In her previous life, when she had been tortured to death by that scumbag, he had said the same thing.
