The news of Gu Chen's proposal of marriage has spread in the village. I heard that Gu Chen gave 200 yuan. Most people were envious, but some people were very jealous.

"Isn't it just 200 yuan? I didn't borrow it. I saw him coming back from the next village often. Maybe he went to borrow money."

Aunt Zhang walked over from the side and joined in the chatting of several women.

"Really or not, I just said that Gu Chen can't make so much money with Gu Yu, and yet you still argue with me."

"I think Gu Chen is not a simple child. Think about it, Shen Zhi and his party placed Qu Bowen's body at that time. After being rescued by Gu Chen, he changed his mind. Maybe he will be taken down by Gu Chen at that time."

Aunt Zhang looked at the woman and said disdainfully: "I only agreed to it as a last resort. It just so happened that the two of them were a good match. One has no father or mother, and he also carries a dirt bottle, and the other has a bad reputation. , Aren’t the two of them a good match?”

Aunt Zhang just couldn't stand people saying that Shen Zhi and Gu Chen were good. If they were good, their family was considered the lucky family in the village. Looking at the women in front of her, none of them were as well-dressed as hers.

However, Shen Zhi changed his mind. Not only did he not take her seriously, but he also started a business with his parents. Hmm - she wanted to see how capable a girl could be.

Wang Po also came over to join in the fun and came to Aunt Zhang's side. The two were in the same boat and had a strong prejudice against Shen Zhi. As soon as the two got into trouble here, there were rumors in the village that Gu Chen had given money to the Shen family. The money was borrowed just to save face.

When Shen's father and Shen's mother heard this rumor, their faces darkened, and Shen Guoli and Shen Guohao couldn't sit still. Isn't this a basin of sewage.

However, Shen Zhi didn't react at all and was studying food in the kitchen.

"Daughter, if you are unhappy and Mom scolds them for you, it must be the scolding women in the village."

He Lan put her hands on her hips. She was her daughter's backer. With her protecting her, she didn't believe anyone could beat her.

Shen Zhi raised his head and took the sesame balls out of the pot slowly.

"Mom, I'm not angry at all. It would be nice if we knew the truth. I live with Gu Chen, not with them."

"This is not okay, I can't swallow this breath."

"Mom, it's not worth getting so angry over these people." Shen Zhi walked towards He Lan.

He Lan looked at her daughter and said, "You are quite reasonable."

Shen Zhi smiled.

"Come and try some of my newly made sesame balls. They are filled with red bean paste. They are freshly cooked and still crispy. Be careful when scalding them."

Shen Zhi now not only makes money from business, but also earns part of the money from the store. The small coffers at home are getting fuller and fuller.

There are many things you can buy and try out.

Gu Chen heard the rumors in the village and walked to Shen Zhi's house without saying a word.

"Have you heard all the gossip in the village?"

Shen Zhi nodded, his expression as usual.

Gu Chen looked solemn and pulled Shen Zhi, "Follow me to the town."

"It's almost evening, why are we going to town?" Shen Zhi didn't know why.

"Go, you will know."

Shen Zhi sat in the back seat of the car and followed Gu Chen to collect the certificate.

Gu Chen took Shen Zhi to a clothing store.

I picked out a few sets of spring clothes for Shen Zhi, and took Shen Zhi to the furniture store to buy some furniture. I have been busy with things outside recently, and I should have added some furniture for the new home long ago, but I just don’t have time, so I can only Came to the store and bought it.

Shen Zhi pulled Gu Chen's sleeve, "Why did you buy so many things? It's still too early to get married."

"Are you aroused by those words?"

Shen Zhi recalled Gu Chen's face just now and knew that he must have been unhappy by those rumors.

"What does it matter to others when we live our lives? Why should we care about other people's opinions?" "They can look down on me, but they can't look down on you." Gu Chen said with a sullen face.

He just wanted to bring Shen Zhi to buy clothes and let others see that Shen Zhi was better off than them.

"There's no need for so many things, we can't even take them back."

"Then go buy a bullock cart. It happens to be useful at home." Gu Chen pulled Shen Zhi forward.

"But we don't have that much money." Shen Zhi glanced at the pile of things in Gu Chen's hand. Is this man a nouveau riche?
"I have money."

Gu Chen turned back to Shen Zhi and said.

At Shen Zhi's insistence, the two finally paid half of the money and bought the bullock cart.

The matter was resolved, but Shen Zhi looked at Gu Chen, and the man's expression was not good.

"Okay, if you want to buy me something, I'll let you buy it when I marry you."

Shen Zhi coaxed Gu Chen and gently poked Gu Chen twice on the waist.

Gu Chen's face, who was driving the bullock cart, softened slightly. He was still very happy when he thought that he would be able to marry a little girl in the spring. He was so happy that he could forget those messy words.

Gu Chen drove an ox cart to the village gate.

Not many people in the village had an ox cart. Gu Chen appeared at the village gate with an ox cart, instantly attracting the attention of the women.

Looking towards the bullock cart, there were a lot of things on it. Shen Zhi sat on it and smiled at them.

"Girl Shen, did you borrow this ox cart?"

Shen Zhi shook his head, "Gu Chen bought it."

Shen Zhi didn't count herself among them. People in the village had always looked down on Gu Chen, and she felt uncomfortable. Although she didn't care about other people's opinions, she could only try her best and not be perfect.

Besides, Gu Chen spent a lot of money today. When she wanted to return it, he refused to let her go, saying that he still had money.

"Gu Chen bought it? How much does it cost?" Gu Chen looked towards Shen Zhi, but when he was about to speak, Shen Zhi beat him to it.

"Yeah, I said no, but Gu Chen insisted on buying it because it would make work easier."

Gu Chen gave his family's land to the Shen family to grow vegetables. He usually worked in the town, and this bullock cart was bought entirely for Shen Zhi.

Aunt Lin gave Gu Chen a thumbs up, "Gu Chen is indeed promising. I'll tell you that I saw it right."

Gu Chen smiled at Aunt Lin.

"Girl Shen, what else did you buy here?"

Shen Zhi hurriedly introduced, "The clothes Gu Chen bought for me are all for spring. You can take these candies and eat them."

Shen Zhi grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to Aunt Lin, and the other aunts behind him quickly came over.

In the blink of an eye, Aunt Lin only had one left.

Shen Zhi smiled and gave her a few more.

Aunt Lin smiled at Shen Zhi, "Your life is getting better and better. It's really enviable. I won't waste your time. You can go back as soon as possible."

Shen Zhi waved his hand, and Gu Chen drove the bullock cart into the village.

Several women looked at the back of the bullock cart and sighed.

"Aunt Zhang and Granny Wang also said that they have no money, so they bought all the bullock carts."

"Who said it wasn't."
