System: Master Your Life-Chapter 709 - 180: Rural Daily Life (Part 2)

Ning Yuhuan has grown to be particularly attractive. Her daughters and sons, once grown up, if nothing unexpected happens, are bound to be beauties and handsome men.

How can people in the countryside not be envious?

Even among the younger generation in the rural areas, it’s hard to shed that rustic aura. Even wearing a dragon robe, they don’t resemble a Crown Prince. It requires a significant amount of education—commonly referred to as the elegance that comes from a wealth of books—or the baptism of wealth and power to eliminate that aura.

Ning Yuhuan seems to naturally lack the rural aura.

She is the most distinctive in the village, leaving a very deep impression on the villagers.

Soon, Xu Lin parked the car.

Ning Yuhuan got out of the car with the two children.

The people then confirmed it was indeed Xu Lin and his family.

"Hey, young man, coming to our village again!"

A woman called out to Xu Lin.

Xu Lin waved at them and walked over.

"You’re really tall, about 1.8 meters, right?"

"This height is more like two meters, not just 1.8 meters!"

The people were amazed by Xu Lin’s height. In this area, with improved living conditions, the stature of young people has improved, but the older generation, particularly men, are mostly around or below 1.7 meters, with 1.8 meters being extremely rare.

"Young man, you must be two meters tall, right? You’re so tall."

Another woman asked.

Xu Lin smiled and said, "Just about 1.9 meters."

"1.9 meters, so tall!"

A woman gestured, measuring herself at a little over 1.5 meters, which is also a common height for women here. Xu Lin seemed too tall and robust.

With Xu Lin’s stature, even without a penny, no one in the village would dare bully him.

In the past, someone with Xu Lin’s height and frame would definitely be a village leader, getting an extra share when dividing land, and their voice would always be the loudest.

"Yeah, 1.9 meters."

Xu Lin took out a pack of cigarettes, "Auntie, do you want one?"

"Oh, go away. Why would a woman like me smoke?"

"Haha..."

Most of the people in the village were women, but there were a few men as well.

Xu Lin offered them a cigarette each.

The social rules in the countryside are such—offer a cigarette, and everything is negotiable, whether they smoke or not; it’s the gesture that counts.

The villagers felt that this young man was so polite and courteous; they couldn’t help but give him a thumbs-up in praise.

They stayed at the bamboo grove for a few minutes.

Xu Lin went to the small shop and did the same thing there.

Later, they finally returned to Ning Yuhuan’s home.

Ning Yuhuan and the children had already returned home.

The grandparents were home, and Xu Lin greeted them.

With Xu Lin visiting again, the old couple was very warm and welcoming.

"Honey, shall we go check out the guavas on the hill out back!"

An hour after arriving, Ning Yuhuan remembered this.

"Okay."

"Brother-in-law, I want to eat guavas too!"

Suisui tugged at Xu Lin’s clothes.

"Me too!" An’an chimed in. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Alright, alright, we’ll all eat."

Xu Lin picked them both up.

Ning Yuhuan couldn’t help teasing, "You just love carrying them both."

"They are already five or six years old. If I don’t hold them now, I might not be able to by next year."

Xu Lin said, "Kids grow up fast these days. For boys, some reach over 1.8 meters at eleven or twelve. Your family’s genes aren’t bad either. I guess they’ll be tall too when they grow up. Suisui won’t be shorter than 1.85, and An’an won’t be shorter than 1.72."

"Brother-in-law, I’ll always want you to hold me!" An’an clung to Xu Lin’s neck.

"Me too, brother-in-law!" Suisui echoed.

Xu Lin was half amused, half exasperated: "That won’t do, you both need to grow tall later."

"Will I be as tall as you, brother-in-law?" An’an asked further.

Xu Lin: "An’an will be as tall as your sister, and Suisui will be as tall as your brother-in-law."

An’an: "Will I be as pretty as my sister?"

"Of course you will."

"Brother-in-law, what about me?" Suisui also inquired.

"You’ll be as handsome as your brother-in-law, become a very handsome guy!"

"What’s a handsome guy?"

"Sometimes the words you use, he doesn’t understand," Ning Yuhuan remarked.

"It means very good-looking."

"Oh, I got it!"

Everyone chatted as they headed towards the back hill of the old house at Ning Yuhuan’s.

On that back hill, there were ten lychee trees and three guava trees.

They were planted by Ning Haifeng when he was young and now stood tall and magnificent.

And they weren’t far from the base of the hill—easy to climb. From the base, you could see them right away.

The lychee season was over, leaving sparse dried lychees hanging, but the guavas were just right, looking plump and juicy on the trees, making them very appetizing.

"Wow! Brother-in-law, I can see the guavas. They’re bigger than my head!"

Suisui gestured.

Ning Yuhuan laughed despite herself, "No way they’re bigger than your head. They’re just about the size of fists."

An’an clamored, "Brother-in-law, I want to eat guavas."

"I’ll pick some for you all in a while."

Xu Lin said, "There seem to be a lot of mosquitoes up there. You all can wait here for me."

Little kids shouldn’t go up the hill. There are too many mosquitoes, and being so young, they can’t handle it.

Ning Yuhuan advised, "Be careful then."

"Okay."

Xu Lin had extraordinary physical capability—climbing up the hill was easy for him, followed by tree climbing. He’s brave and strong, climbing quickly like a monkey, with great agility.

But it made Ning Yuhuan nervous; Xu Lin was too daring. Even the small branches that looked like they might break, he dared to stand on. Ning Yuhuan didn’t dare speak loudly, fearing she’d distract Xu Lin and cause him to lose focus and fall accidentally.

Soon, Xu Lin picked more than thirty guavas.

There were still plenty left on the three trees.
