As soon as Xu Huaian walked into the supply and marketing cooperative, he immediately noticed Shi Qingqian.

A surge of surprise welled up in his heart, but he tried hard to control his emotions.

I originally thought that I would find a chance to ask her name later.

Unexpectedly, Shi Qingqian's direct attack stunned him and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Chen Chen also widened his eyes.

Is it okay to have this all over your face?!

A beautiful wife is now at your doorstep, don't miss this opportunity.

Seeing that Xu Huaian was still standing there without saying anything, Chen Chen was so anxious that he almost forced him to agree.

Chen Chen hurriedly started to promote him: "This comrade, his name is Xu Huaian, he is the commander of the 19th Regiment of the Southern Military Region. He is upright, responsible, filial to his parents, loving his wife and children, clean and hygienic, and never hesitates to hand over his salary. He is absolutely honest and trustworthy. If you pass by him, please don't make the mistake!"

Shi Qingqian couldn't help laughing at Chen Chen's series of sales pitches. She looked at Xu Huaian and asked, "What did Captain Xu say?"

When Xu Huaian was asked this by Shi Qingqian, his originally red ears suddenly turned red enough to bleed. He coughed lightly and tried to calm himself down, "You..."

"My name is Shi Qingqian."

"Shi Qingqian, that's a nice name," Chen Chen bumped his shoulder against Xu Huaian, "Old Xu, do you think it sounds nice?"

Time is shallow...

Xu Huaian had been secretly reciting her name in his mind, but when Chen Chen suddenly asked him, he was a little flustered. His eyes flickered for a moment, but when he looked at Shi Qingqian, he said seriously, "It sounds very nice."

Chen Chen raised his eyebrows. It seemed that there was hope and there was a good chance that his mission would be completed.

"Oh, I remember my mother asked me to go home for dinner, so I'll leave first," Chen Chen said, then he slipped away quickly.

Only Xu Huaian and Shi Qingqian were left in the supply and marketing cooperative, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.

"How about we find a place to talk?" Shi Qingqian said.

Xu Huaian was so nervous that he didn't know how to start, but he immediately nodded when he heard her suggestion.

The two came to a small river not far away. The breeze was blowing gently, and the river was flowing gently, bringing a hint of coolness.

Xu Huaian stood there nervously, his hands slightly clenched into fists, not knowing how to break the awkward silence.

Shi Qingqian couldn't help laughing at his nervous look. She tilted her head slightly, looked at Xu Huaian and said, "Captain Xu, are you nervous?"

Xu Huaian's face turned redder. He coughed lightly and tried to appear calmer. "Yes... a little."

Shi Qingqian smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Shi Qingqian. I'm 20 years old, an orphan. I have a little money, and I'm going to Xiangyang Village in Xi Province the day after tomorrow."

Xu Huaian was slightly startled. He didn't expect such a coincidence. "My name is Xu Huaian. I'm 27 years old. I'm an active-duty soldier. I'm the commander of the 126th Regiment of the Southern Military Region. My salary is . I have parents and two older brothers. I have a younger sister, a nephew, and two nieces. My family is also in Xiangyang Village, Xi Province. I'm back here to visit my relatives."

"I know. I was sitting in the back when you were on a blind date just now and heard it clearly."

The reason why Shi Qingqian fell in love with Xu Huaian was, on the one hand, of course, because of Xu Huaian's pleasing handsome face, and on the other hand, because his family was in Xiangyang Village, Western Province.

The original owner's uncle and his family were sent down to Xiangyang Village, so she had to go.

But it is impossible to ask her to do farm work, so she needs a man who is handsome, rich, and does not go home.

There is no doubt that Xu Huaian fully meets the requirements and is very suitable.

"You just said..." Xu Huaian didn't know how to ask.

He was worried that she would change her mind, and he was also worried that she was serious and that he would let her down in the future.

He is a soldier with heavy responsibilities and cannot always be with his wife and children.

Being a military wife is an honor, but it also means enduring a lot of loneliness and waiting.

Shi Qingqian said seriously: "I was serious just now, I wasn't joking, so, do you want a wife or not?"

Xu Huaian's heart skipped a beat at Shi Qingqian's straightforward words, and he stood there in a daze like a goose.

Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Shi Qingqian's excited heart instantly cooled down.

She doesn't have to be with anyone, and since Xu Huaian is so hesitant, there is no need for her to continue to pester him.

Shi Qingqian raised her chin slightly: "Since Captain Xu is so embarrassed, then just pretend that I never said anything."

Shi Qingqian's voice was calm, yet with a hint of distance. After she finished speaking, she turned and left.

Xu Huaian finally woke up from his dream. Looking at Shi Qingqian's back as she was about to turn and leave, he became anxious and quickly reached out to hold her.

"I'm not in trouble," Xu Huaian eagerly grabbed her wrist.

Shi Qingqian stopped but didn't turn around immediately. She still felt a little aggrieved. "Then why didn't you say anything? You made me think you were hesitating, or even refusing."

Xu Huaian quickly explained: "I was just so surprised that I didn't know how to respond for a moment."

"So now tell me, do you want to marry me?"

"Marry!" This time Xu Huaian answered quickly, fearing that if he was slow she would turn and leave again. "From the moment I saw you, I knew you were the one I'd been waiting for. I will be as loyal to you as I am to my country."

"That's pretty good," Shi Qingqian raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a bright smile.

That smile was like the most beautiful flower in spring, instantly lighting up Xu Huaian's world.

"Qian...Qianqian, who are the other elders in your family? I will go and propose marriage tomorrow."

Shi Qingqian shook her head: "My elders are not here, you can just ask me directly."

Xu Huaian was slightly startled, then his eyes were filled with tenderness. He stuffed all the money he had on him into Shi Qingqian's pocket and said, "This is all I have for now. I'll give you the passbook when I get home. I'll use all my money, including all my future salary, to propose to you."

Shi Qingqian accepted it without hesitation. Her man's money was naturally her money. "Since you are so sincere, I will reluctantly accept it. But if you dare to betray me in the future, I will make you a pauper."

Xu Huaian looked at Shi Qingqian's arrogant look, his eyes full of doting.

After handing over the wages, the two began to wonder when you would go to Western Province.

Shi Qingqian's original date was the morning of the day after tomorrow, and Xu Huaian's was tomorrow morning.

After the two discussed it, Xu Huaian bought a new ticket for Shi Qingqian, and they would take the train together tomorrow morning.

After buying the train tickets, Xu Huaian took Shi Qingqian to the guesthouse and booked a room.

Shi Qingqian really didn't want to see that mother and daughter again.

But it is impossible to let them go just like that. The grievances the original owner has suffered over the years cannot be solved by just scolding her.

Shi Qingqian narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking about how to teach the mother and daughter a lesson.

Xu Huaian didn't ask much about her not going home. After sending Shi Qingqian to the guesthouse, he went to Chen Chen's house, where he was staying for the past few days.
