Forced to go to the countryside, the arrogant young lady got married and became a military wife
Chapter 16 Buying Medicine
Lin Jiahui and Tang Jincheng took turns to persuade her, but Shi Qingqian had already made up her mind. Once she made up her mind, she was so stubborn that no one could change her mind.
There was nothing they could do.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Shi Qingqian carefully left the earthen house.
Tang Jincheng watched her figure disappear into the darkness, and he still felt uneasy.
He had to see with his own eyes what kind of person his sister was going to marry.
The next morning, Xu Huaian woke up and returned from his second uncle's house.
When he arrived at the door of his house, he was alert to the fact that a pair of eyes were staring at him.
Xu Huaian frowned slightly and observed his surroundings calmly. He could feel that there seemed to be scrutiny and inquiry in that gaze.
As a soldier, his first reaction was that he was an enemy spy.
Relying on his keen intuition, Xu Huaian quickly locked onto the direction of the gaze.
He pretended nothing had happened and continued walking home. When he approached a hidden corner, he suddenly turned around and pounced in that direction as fast as a cheetah.
Tang Jincheng had not expected Xu Huaian's reaction to be so quick. Before he could react, Xu Huaian grabbed his arm and pushed him to the ground.
He struggled to get up, but found that Xu Huaian was so strong that he couldn't break free at all.
"Who are you? Why are you spying on me?" Xu Huaian's eyes were sharp and his voice was low and majestic.
Tang Jincheng gritted his teeth and said, "Let me go, I'm not a bad person."
Xu Huaian didn't let up at all and continued to press: "If you don't explain clearly, I will hand you over to the police. Tracking a soldier will result in a minimum sentence of three years."
Tang Jincheng would not reveal his relationship with Shi Qingqian. He could only explain his identity and said that he envied his military uniform, which was why he took a few more glances at it.
Xu Huaian naturally wouldn't believe it so easily, so he took him directly to see Xu Wu. Only after confirming that he was indeed a demoted personnel did he release him.
Xu Wu sighed, "This guy is really filial. Other children would cut off all ties with their parents as soon as they know something's wrong, but he would rather divorce them to take care of them. What a pity."
……
When Xu Huaian returned home, Shi Qingqian was still asleep.
Zhang Lanxiang saw him come back and said, "Qianqian must have been tired yesterday. Don't wake her up. There's rice warming in the pot. The eggs are for her too. Make her breakfast when she wakes up."
"understood."
"Come back, I haven't finished yet," Zhang Lanxiang stuffed a handful of money into Xu Huaian's hand and continued to instruct, "Take Qianqian to town to buy a watch today. In addition, your father and I will give you another 100 yuan as a betrothal gift."
"Logically speaking, Qianqian is from the city and is educated, so our family should give her more in betrothal gifts. However, your eldest and second sister-in-law also received 100 in betrothal gifts when they entered the family. Your father and I must treat them equally."
"Mom knows you have money. When you get married, I'll give it to your wife. That way, you won't let Qianqian down. She's only 20 years old, and you're marrying a 27-year-old bachelor like me."
Xu Huaian, a 27-year-old single boy, returned the money and said, "Mom, you know I have money, so I don't need your help."
"Don't give me that shit, just take it when I tell you to," said Zhang Lanxiang with a hot temper.
Xu Huaian looked at his mother helplessly and had to accept the money.
Zhang Lanxiang nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's about right."
……
At around eight o'clock, Shi Qingqian changed her clothes and opened the door.
Xu Huaian had nothing to do and was chopping wood outside the yard. He put down the axe only when he saw she woke up.
Xu Huaian went forward and said, "Qianqian, you're awake. Mom left some breakfast for you. It's warm in the pot. I'll get you some water to wash up."
Shi Qingqian nodded.
Xu Huaian quickly fetched some water and placed it in front of Shi Qingqian. After Shi Qingqian finished washing up, Xu Huaian considerately brought her a hot breakfast. He was busy all morning, but he enjoyed it.
While Shi Qingqian was eating, Xu Huaian told her what Zhang Lanxiang had just said.
Shi Qingqian nodded and had no objection to this.
She is now a small wealthy woman. Apart from the money Xu Huaian gave her, there is more than 100,000 yuan in the passbook of the original owner's father that she found at home.
At that time, the term "ten thousand yuan household" had not yet become popular, but she already had 100,000 yuan in her hands, making her a well-off woman.
She didn't care about the betrothal gift at all, but Xu's mother was still very sincere towards her future daughter-in-law.
After dinner, Xu Huaian went to his second uncle's house to borrow a bicycle. This was the only bicycle in their village, and it was polished to a shine.
"Do you have a bicycle ticket? Let's buy one so it will be convenient in the future," Shi Qingqian said.
Xu Huaian thought for a moment and said, "There should be. Look for the pile of tickets I gave you."
Shi Qingqian returned to the room and began to look through the pile of tickets Xu Huaian had given her. She carefully checked each one and found the bicycle ticket. She ran out excitedly with the ticket, "I found it!"
Xu Huaian looked at her happy expression, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly. "Then let's go to town today and buy the bicycle."
The two of them rode their uncle's bicycle and headed towards the town.
Along the way, the breeze was blowing and the sun was warm. Shi Qingqian hugged Xu Huaian's waist tightly, feeling particularly comfortable.
After arriving in town, Shi Qingqian was still thinking about buying medicine.
This matter definitely could not be hidden from Xu Huaian, so he simply told him the whole story.
Xu Huaian was shocked when he heard Shi Qingqian say that her uncle's family was sent down to Xiangyang Village.
"So you went to the countryside just for them?"
"Yeah," Shi Qingqian nodded.
"No wonder," Xu Huaian thought of Tang Jincheng who followed him this morning. It turned out that he was Shi Qingqian's cousin.
He probably knew that she was going to marry him, so he came secretly to see what kind of person his future brother-in-law would be.
"Let's go to the hospital first."
Xu Huaian drove Shi Qingqian to the clinic to buy medicine. Fortunately, the medicines on Meng Wangfei's prescription were all common Western medicines, which could be purchased at the town clinic.
Shi Qingqian looked at the medicine in her hand, and the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
"That's good now, my uncle and the others have medicine," Shi Qingqian said with a happy smile on her face.
Xu Huaian looked at her and said, "Qianqian, if anything happens in the future, you must tell me and we will face it together."
"Okay," Shi Qingqian nodded.
After putting the medicine away, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
There are several brand new bicycles displayed in the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Comrade, how much is a bicycle?" Shi Qingqian asked.
The salesperson said, "I'm sorry, all the bikes are reserved. The only one left is a Phoenix brand, 180 yuan plus a bike ticket."
Shi Qingqian waved his hand and said, "We want it."
The salesperson pushed the bicycle out, Xu Huaian checked it and made sure there was no problem, then Shi Qingqian paid for it.
"Let's take another look at the watches," the two of them came to the watch cabinet.
The salesperson saw that they were getting married and tried hard to sell them watches, but there were less than ten watches in the cabinet and Shi Qingqian didn't like any of them.
"dislike?"
Shi Qingqian nodded.
"Let's go to the city to buy it tomorrow."
