Glancing at the girl, Tang Nan frowned.
Under the hot sun, the girl standing behind the fence had two black braided braids.
She wore a simple and clean shirt with a round collar and black trousers.
Her clothes were bright and fresh, and the girl's face was fair. Even though her forehead was covered with sweat, her body still exuded a pure aura.
It was not the first time Tang Nan knew that Mei Qian looked good.
But all along, when she saw him, she either lowered her head to avoid him or walked around him. The two of them did not speak at all.
...
But today, she was at his door, looking at him openly. There was a smile on her delicate face.
Her almond-shaped eyes were clear and sparkling as she looked at him, imprinting his figure.
Soft and focused.
Tang Nan was a little absent-minded, but he could see his shabby appearance in her eyes.
His handsome brows furrowed even more tightly, and his deep voice asked coldly.
"What's the matter, Mei family's eldest daughter?"
As a fiance, Tang Nan naturally knew about the fierce news that had recently spread in the Mei family village.
The Mei family's reputation did not count. If the rumors were true, the Tang family would also be humiliated because of her.
Their initial 70-80% favorable impression of the girl was now gone.
Tang Nan looked at her and naturally did not have a good expression on his face.

Xia Ling smiled as her eyes flashed.
She had seen her appearance in the projection. She was delicate and clean, and there were two dimples on her cheeks.
Her smile was sweet and clear, and also exceptionally beautiful.
As expected, Tang Nan was a little absent-minded as he looked at her.
Xia Ling said, "Big brother Tang, I came here today because I have something to tell you. Aunt Tang has rested, and the house is also hot. Let's go for a walk in the woods behind the house. What do you think?"
Her voice was soft and gentle, carrying a girl's unique crispness.
Tang Nan looked at her. He could not see any malice in the girl's eyes.
He grunted and came out of the fence, then turned around and closed the fence.
"Let's go."

It was a scorching hot afternoon, and even the cicadas were so bored that they did not want to cry out.
In the small woods, the two walked side by side.
The leaves rustled in the breeze.
The footsteps made rustling sounds as they stepped on the branches and fallen leaves.
As the two walked closer, Tang Nan could smell the faint scent of soap on the girl's body.
However, on her cold face, she had a calm expression.
Tang Nan guessed the girl's intentions in his heart.
Previously, when he heard that Mei Qian liked Zhiqing and Li Qing at the village entrance, the two of them were very close, so Mei Qian insisted on breaking off the engagement with him and getting along with Li Qing.
Tang Nan didn't have any objections to breaking off the engagement.
He hadn't read much since he was young, but the girl came from a village cadre and read a lot. From her performance, it seemed that she had always looked down on a bumpkin like him.
But what about Tang Nan? His family was poor, and it wasn't suitable for him to marry a delicate girl who couldn't be carried on his shoulders or picked on.
He guessed that the girl's sudden visit was to break off the engagement and cut off all ties with him.
Tang Nan thought about it and made a decision.
If the Mei family returned the 200 yuan for the engagement, he would be able to buy another cow for the family.
Soon, the recruiter arrived and he was about to leave. He was also worried that the farm work at home would be left to his mother.
With the cow, it would be a favor to anyone in the village who borrowed the animals, so he could help his mother more.

Tang Nan thought far ahead for a moment.
On this side, his legs were long and his steps were big. Naturally, his feet were fast.
Xia Ling initially tried to follow him. After that, the man walked faster and faster with a cold face.
"Big brother Tang!"
Her eyes flashed, and she simply reached out to grab the man's hand.
