Wang Lanying smiled shyly after hearing her sister's words.
"Sister, you know how to praise me." She glared at Wang Lanxiang coquettishly and smiled as if she was very embarrassed.
"My sister is excellent! Why can't I praise you? Just look at the girls and wives in the compound. How many of them have your qualifications?"
Wang Lanxiang curled her lips proudly and looked at her sister with pride in her eyes.
But after Wang Lanying heard her sister's words, she seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and her smile suddenly froze on her face.
Disgust and unwillingness flashed in her eyes, but more importantly, she was worried, "Sister, what if, what if Xu Wantang also comes to run for announcer?"
Wang Lanxiang was also taken aback by her sister's words, and the compliments she had just poured out like beans came to an abrupt end.
"Sister, do you also think that I am not as good as her?!" Seeing that Wang Lanxiang remained silent for a while, Wang Lanying put down her chopsticks with a "pop" and asked aggrievedly and angrily.
Wang Lanxiang felt a little nervous, feeling that the conditions of the two were indeed comparable, but she just thought about it in her heart and had no intention of telling her sister.
Captain Lu's wife is from City B. She speaks with no accent and even her enunciation is very clear. In addition, she has a good image. She is indeed a big threat to her sister, but her family The girls are not bad either!
Seeing Wang Lanying ask this, Wang Lanxiang quickly said, "How can we do that? Even if that vixen comes to compete with you, he may not be able to compete with you. Have you forgotten? When you were a child in the primary school in our village, you always spoke under the national flag. You She has experience, but she doesn’t!”
After listening to her sister's words, Wang Lanying's face softened a lot.
yes! She is experienced!
During the years when she was in school, every time she read a text, her teacher praised her for her standard pronunciation and proper pauses. Therefore, whenever there were activities in the school, she would always stand on the podium to read the manuscript as the representative of their grade. .
Not only that, once the county organized a speech contest, she represented the school and won the third prize and a book! Not everyone can do this!
Thinking of this, Wang Lanying couldn't help but feel complacent and determined to win.
Wang Lanxiang stood up, wondering what she was doing. After a while, she walked to the dining table with a newspaper.
"I haven't eaten pork, but haven't I seen a pig running? Then the announcer just reads from the script? Just read the script by heart!"
Wang Lanxiang handed the newspapers to Wang Lanying one by one, "Just read all the recent news and everything in order. If you don't hit me, I'll see who can compete with my sister!"
Wang Lanying thinks her sister is right!
He quickly took the newspaper, wiped the oil on his mouth, and nodded to Wang Lanxiang, "Sister! You are so awesome! I'll go right now!"
Wang Lanying had been watching the sun setting in the yard before entering the house.
After reading for a while in the room, I made sure that there was nothing wrong, and then I went to sleep peacefully.

The same goes for Xu Wantang on the other side.
When it was getting dark, Xu Wantang's newspaper reading session was about to end.
"Let's stop here today. It's getting dark. I'll come back another day." Xu Wantang put away the newspaper and said to the villagers.
The villagers are obviously still unsatisfied.
"Before, I listened to the news relayed from the central government every day. Sometimes I couldn't keep up, and I didn't understand some parts. But after you explained it, I understood it all at once!"
"Yes, the radio is always blaring. Sometimes I get upset when I hear it. They talk about agriculture and the economy every day. I don't know what the talk on the radio has to do with me. I finally understand it today!"
"Girl, please go back quickly. It's dark out today. Is there anyone here to pick you up? If not, I'll take you back!"
An aunt held Xu Wantang's hand affectionately and showed concern.
Xu Wantang held her aunt's hand back and said with a smile, "My home is not far from here. Just go back by yourself. It'll be okay. You can go home as soon as possible. Don't keep your family waiting."
When the aunt heard that Xu Wantang wanted to go back by herself, she curled her lips and said, "That's not possible! There's no hope in this matter. Do you want to marry me?"
The more the aunt looked at Xu Wantang, the more she thought this girl was good. She had two sons at home, but she felt that none of them were worthy of this girl.
But you have to try, what if this girl has bad eyesight and makes eye contact with one of those two things?
The speed at which this aunt changed the topic surprised Xu Wantang.
Didn’t you just talk about her going home?
How come in the blink of an eye, the question of whether she was married or not came up?
Under the expectant gaze of her aunt, Xu Wantang was about to reply that she was married when she heard a familiar voice.
"Xu Wantang, go home."
Xu Wantang couldn't help but be startled when he heard this voice.
Lu Yunzheng?
Why is he here?
Isn't he at home?
Turning around to look, Lu Yunzheng was indeed standing not far behind her.
After the sun set, the light became dim, and Xu Wantang could only see the general outline of Lu Yunzheng's figure.
He was already tall, but now he stood out among a group of middle-aged and elderly people.
As soon as he made a sound, the surrounding people noticed such a tall young man nestled in the corner.
"Hey, my boy is so tall! He looks strong!" An uncle sighed sincerely.
He had long legs and long steps, and he reached Xu Wantang's side in a few steps.
Only then did Xu Wantang notice that Lu Yunzheng's hair was scattered in front of his forehead, and a few strands of hair seemed to be soaked with sweat and stuck to his forehead.
In the dim environment, the deep contours of his face were even more apparent, and those strands of wet hair added a bit of casual handsomeness to his originally cold and proud face.
He was not wearing a military uniform. He was wearing regular clothes, a white shirt and a pair of black trousers. His simple outfit was still very impressive, and the aunt standing next to Xu Wantang couldn't help but take a small step back.
"Let's go." Lu Yunzheng held a flashlight in his pocket, looked down at Xu Wantang, and said seemingly casually.
The burning heat in his eyes has not dissipated, but it is mostly hidden by the dim light, making it not obvious.
"Why are you here?" Xu Wantang asked curiously.
Lu Yunzheng turned the flashlight in his hand like an active child, said, "Yeah," and then said no more.
Xu Wantang just asked casually, not intending to hear anything from his mouth.
"Then I'll leave first." Xu Wantang greeted the aunt politely.
"Okay, okay!" The aunt seemed to have completely forgotten about connecting Xu Wantang with her son. She looked at Xu Wantang and then at Lu Yunzheng, "Is this the one from your family? The two children are so matched. ah!"
Xu Wantang smiled so hard that he didn't say anything and followed Lu Yunzheng away.
What Xu Wantang didn't know was that in the crowd, an old man holding a cigarette in his mouth looked at her back, took a puff of cigarette, and smiled happily for a long time.
In the evening of midsummer, the sea breeze blows and the cicadas chirp constantly.
Xu Wantang and Lu Yunzheng were always walking with a distance between them, and they were silent all the way.
Lu Yunzheng looked at the person next to him, and couldn't help but recall what this person looked like just now. He felt his heartbeat, which was beating very frequently, and his frown deepened.
