The groom was kidnapped on the wedding day? Fine! I'll marry someone else.

After the two finished chatting, Xiao Tang escorted Xu Yu out and took him to the door of Director Wu's office.

When the people in the office saw the two people coming, Jiang Yi and others stood up.

Jiang Yi said, "It's getting late, and we still have to catch the bus back to town."

Director Wu personally escorted the few people out.

When Jiang Yi and the others came out, Xiao Tang was still a little afraid of Jiang Yi and subconsciously stood behind Xu Yu.

Xu Yu turned to look at her.

Xiao Tang smiled at her embarrassedly.

Although she didn't think her boyfriend was scary, he had such a strong aura, a cool face, and that scar that it really frightened people from the bottom of their hearts.

Xu Yu gave her a reassuring look.

Then when Jiang Yi came over, he followed him towards the stairs.

Xiao Tang accompanied Director Wu to see them off.

Xu Yu told a few people about the agreement between her and Xiao Tang, and also introduced her eldest brother.

Xiao Tang politely said to Brother Xu, "Comrade Xu, please bring the medicine Xiaoyu prescribes for me from now on."

Brother Xu nodded at her.

Brother Xu had watched his sister's skin improve and become whiter these days, and he was very confident in her. He said to Xiao Tang, "Comrade Tang, don't worry. My sister is very good at this. The acne scars on your face will definitely be cured."

Xiao Tang looked at the smile on Brother Xu's face and couldn't help but nodded with a smile: "I believe it."

After sending a few people to the factory gate, Xiao Tang and Director Wu walked back together.

Xiao Tang asked, "Uncle, you seem particularly polite to Comrade Jiang?"

Director Wu glanced at her and said, "Comrade Jiang is a legend in the military. Even though he's gone now, he still deserves our admiration."

"So what do you think of his partner?"

"His partner must be good too."

Xiao Tang smiled and nodded: "I think so too."

……

After Xu Yu and the others went out, they rejected Director Li's offer to send them off, and the four of them walked together towards the car company where Xu Jianjun worked.

Xu Jianjun drives a car from the county seat to surrounding towns, and has a fixed commute time every day.

The bus station in the county is quite large, at least it has town buses, city buses, and long-distance buses to the city.

Looking at the cars driving in, out, or parked, Xu Jianping said with anticipation, "It would be great if cars could be driven through our town. It would be much more convenient to go anywhere."

Xu Yu also hopes: "It would be great if our village could have electricity, so we don't have to light kerosene lamps at night."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yi responded, "It will be available next year at the latest."

The three Xu siblings looked at him at the same time.

Xu Yu asked curiously, "Is it electricity or a car?"

"All are available."

"Great."

Xu Yu didn't care where Jiang Yi got the news, he was really happy anyway.

Xu Jianjun and Xu Jianping were also very happy.

After standing at the bus station for a while, they saw passers-by taking a detour and secretly looking at Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi always had a blank expression on his face, but his aura intimidated those people and made them quickly turn their eyes away.

Xu Yu was now immune to these people avoiding his sight. After looking at the bus station, he went to Xu Jianjun's dormitory and sat for a while.

Xu Jianjun lives in a double dormitory with two beds, a table, a cabinet, and a bench. Xu Jianjun also nailed a platform with wooden boards next to his bed to store things, on which he placed simple toiletries and a ceramic teacup.

Even if it was simple, he kept it tidy and clean.

The three of them only stayed in the dormitory for a while before preparing to catch the bus back to town.

Xu Jianjun left behind the spare clothes he had brought with him, and then placed the sweet potato and grain steamed bread he had brought that morning into Jiang Yi's backpack. He said to the three of them, "I won't be back until the 19th. If you have anything to say, just send someone to tell me."

"We didn't eat the steamed bread at noon, so you can take it with you to eat on the way. Otherwise, we'll be hungry if we get back too late."

Jiang Yi said, "I also brought some dry food."

Xu Yu said, "Brother, you can save the steamed bread for yourself. It can be used for your dinner and tomorrow's breakfast and lunch. This way you can save some money."

Xu Jianjun was a little touched by his sister's thoughtfulness. He really liked to save money, and most of the time he would buy a few multi-grain steamed buns in the cafeteria to eat for two meals.

Xu Jianping also let him keep it.

Xu Jianjun kept the steamed buns, and then he sent the three people out of the dormitory building and prepared to take them to the place where they were going to catch the bus.

The county town is much more lively than the town. Not only is the supply and marketing cooperative much larger, but there are also restaurants, post offices, guesthouses, and barber shops...

When passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, Xu Jianjun asked Xu Yu if he wanted to go in and buy some food to take back.

Xu Yu shook his head: "There are still so many snacks that Brother Yi brought back home. My brother and I can't finish them all in a short time."

Xu Jianjun did not insist and waited until he sent the three people to the car before going back.

We went back in the same convertible car we came in.

It’s still the same people.

After getting in the car, Jiang Yi took out a stool and placed it next to him for Xu Yu to sit on.

The others still sat as far away from them as possible.

When the car first drove out, the road was relatively flat, so Xu Yu sat quietly and chatted casually with the two of them.

Xu Yu said: "It's better to be in the city. There are more opportunities to make money."

Xu Jianping said to her: "You can only make money if you can work in a factory, but most people can't get into a factory at all. For those who can't work in a factory, it's not as easy as it is for us in the countryside to earn work points."

Xu Yu also said to him: "Second brother, your thinking is really old-fashioned. If you were in the city, you could find a way to supply the pigs you raise to the factory or the state-owned restaurant."

"Do you think anyone can send their pigs into these places?"

"Whether you can get in depends on whether you can use your brain."

"It doesn't matter if you have brains, the most important thing is connections."

Xu Yu felt that his second brother was hopeless, so he looked at Jiang Yi who was sitting next to him and complained to him: "Brother Yi, do you think my second brother is hopeless with his unambitious thinking?"

Xu Jianping shouted in dissatisfaction: "Hey! How can I not be ambitious? I'm even planning to raise a few more pigs next year."

Xu Yu said to him, "What can you do with those extra ones?"

Xu Jianping boasted: "By the end of the year, people in our village will be able to get more meat."

Looking at his second brother's smug expression, Xu Yu didn't want to talk to him.

Jiang Yi watched the brother and sister bicker, and after they finished, he said to Xu Jianping, "If you can afford to raise more, you can."

Xu Yu was happy and said to Xu Jianping, "See, Brother Yi agrees with me."

Xu Jianping looked at Jiang Yi and thought of the people he met in the county town, and suddenly he felt a little restless.

But he was still a little hesitant, so he shut his mouth and prepared to think it over carefully.

After Xu Jianping thought about this, he really didn’t say anything from then on.

Xu Yu looked at him several times, but didn't disturb him and chatted with Jiang Yi in a casual manner.

"Brother Yi, when we get back, when will you have time to take me to the mountains to collect herbs?"

"If you want to go, you can go before the bricks and tiles are delivered."

Jiang Yi and Director Li agreed that the bricks and tiles would be delivered in five days. By then, his friends would be able to come together and he could arrange to build the house.

Once the house is built, there won’t be much time for me to accompany her to the mountains to collect herbs.

Xu Yu nodded at him quickly: "Okay!"

Then he thought for a moment and said, "How about we go the day after tomorrow and come back the day after tomorrow? Then we can ask Grandpa Huang to come along, so we can pick more herbs."

"I owe Grandpa Huang a lot of herbs, and I also promised to help Xiao Tang with his acne scars, so I need a lot of herbs."

Since she was going to pick herbs, she wished she could pick several baskets at a time before coming back.

Jiang Yi looked at Xu Yu with a distressed expression, and suddenly wanted to reach out and touch her head.

He thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry. Wait for my comrades to come and we'll go to the mountains again. You can pick as many herbs as you want then."

"Really?" Xu Yu's eyes lit up with surprise. She was so excited that she grabbed his hand and said softly, "Then it's settled."

Jiang Yi looked at her sparkling eyes, and calmly moved the backpack next to him a little forward, just enough to block Xu Yu's hand holding his, and hummed at the same time.

Xu Yu didn't notice, and was happy, so he said, "Then we'll go the day after tomorrow. Come early in the morning to wake me up, and I'll talk to Grandpa Huang tomorrow to see if he wants to go with us."

"it is good."

Xu Yu told him what herbs she needed to collect.

Jiang Yi has been taking medicine for more than a year and can already recognize many medicinal herbs. He also has an impression of the location of some of them. He plans to take Xu Yu to collect them the day after tomorrow.

Xu Yu also thought of Jiang Yi's medicine, so he said, "Brother Yi, next time I go to your house, please show me the medicine you are taking. I also want to help you regulate your body, but I have to make sure that the medicine you take does not conflict with the medicine I prepare for you."

"it is good."

Xu Yu's eyes curved with a smile, and she was extremely satisfied with his cooperation: "But don't worry, I will show the medicine I prescribe to Grandpa Huang first. If he says it's okay for you to take, then you can take it."

"it is good."

After Jiang Yi finished speaking, he directly turned around and wrapped her small hand in his palm.

There was a tenderness in her eyes that even he didn't notice.
