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

Xu Yu actually had nothing to do while staying at Jiang Yi's house.

Yang Wenhui had already arranged the ingredients needed for dinner.

As soon as the two aunts arrived, the three of them started washing and cutting quickly.

Xu Yu followed Yang Wenhui and said to her, "Aunt Yang, please assign me some work."

Yang Wenhui was reluctant to let her work, so after thinking for a moment, she said, "Xiaoyi said you wanted to see his medicine. Go to his room and take a look. It's in his cabinet."

Before Xu Yu could say anything, the other two aunts laughed knowingly.

Xu Yu didn't think much of it at first, but when they smiled at him like that, he felt a little embarrassed for some reason.

Yang Wenhui saw it and simply washed her hands and took her with her. As they walked, she said, "Xiaoyi cleans his room himself. You can go check if he likes it clean and tidy."

Hearing this, Xu Yu couldn't help but smile.

Soon the two of them arrived outside Jiang Yi's room.

Yang Wenhui pushed open the door, but didn't go in. She smiled and said to Xu Yu, "Go in, the cabinet is over there, just open it."

Although Xu Yu also wanted to go in, he was still a little shy, so he asked awkwardly, "Can I go in? Will Brother Yi be unhappy if he finds out?"

"No." Yang Wenhui smiled and said, "Even if you don't go in now, you will still live with him after you get married. Besides, he told us that he wanted you to look at his medicinal herbs. Don't you think he just wants you to go into his bedroom and take a look?"

Xu Yu pursed her lips and smiled, then stopped being shy and walked straight in.

After she entered, Yang Wenhui considerately closed the door a little and then left.

Xu Yu stood in Jiang Yi's bedroom and couldn't help but look around.

The room was very clean and tidy.

In fact, there were very few pieces of furniture in his room, and most of them were her dowry.

A bed, a shelf nailed to the side of the bed, a cabinet on the shelf, a water cup and a kerosene lamp next to the bed, and everything else was hers.

The quilt on the bed was folded like a block of tofu, and from the color of the quilt, you could tell it was the military quilt he brought back from the army.

Maybe it’s because it’s been used for too long, the color of the quilt has faded due to washing, but it’s still very clean.

The bed was also covered with a bamboo mat.

Xu Yu took a special look and confirmed that there were only wooden planks underneath the mat, without any straw at all. He couldn't help but mutter, "Isn't he afraid of getting hurt?"

Anyway, she couldn't stand sleeping on a hard wooden bed. There were no mattresses in that era, so she had to put some more straw underneath.

She decided to find time to talk to Jiang Yi. After they got married, they had to put thicker straw under the mat. She had a lot of quilts as her dowry, so she could put one underneath. Even in such difficult times, she didn't want to endure some hardships.

After thinking this through, she went to the cabinet.

When he opened the cabinet, he saw two layers of it. The bottom layer was filled with packages of medicine, which he was obviously taking.

There are several glass jars on it, and the glass jars are filled with precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and Glycyrrhiza uralensis.

Xu Yu was shocked.

She took out a glass jar and held it in front of her eyes to look carefully at the ginseng inside, her eyes lighting up.

"Hundreds of years old natural wild ginseng! How could Brother Jiang have such a good thing!"

Xu Yu sighed for a long time before taking out one of the packages of medicinal herbs below, opening the package and looking at it carefully.

It has been more than a year since Jiang Yi was injured, and the medicines he is currently taking are all solid bacon.

Although Xu Yu did not develop into a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, he had been learning Traditional Chinese Medicine from the old man since he was a child. The old man also praised him for being better than him as long as he studied this field well.

Therefore, Xu Yu was very familiar with the functions and effects of these herbs, and could not help but praise: "Sure enough, there are many great Chinese medicine practitioners in this era."

"I don't know which military doctor prescribed this medicine for Brother Yi?"

She plans to ask Jiang Yi these questions when she has time.

Then she carefully planned in her mind how to help Jiang Yi regulate his body based on these medicinal herbs.

……

In the kitchen.

Aunt Zhu, Aunt Su and Yang Wenhui have always had a good relationship. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are best friends, so when Yang Wenhui came back, they talked about Xu Yu with a smile.

Aunt Zhu: "This girl seems to have become much more obedient. Her face is so juicy. No wonder Xiao Jiang likes her so much."

Aunt Su: "Yes, especially this girl, her smile is so sweet, when I see her smile, I can't help but smile with her."

Hearing this, Yang Wenhui couldn't help but smile.

She said, "Yes, I never thought that my Xiaoyi would marry a girl as well-behaved as Xiaoyu. I was prepared for him to remain single for the rest of his life."

Hearing this, Aunt Zhu and Aunt Su looked at each other.

In fact, in addition to the three of them, He Yaqin’s mother Zhao Cui also had a good relationship with them.

The four of them came from the same place, experienced those difficult days together, encouraged each other, helped each other, and in the blink of an eye, most of their lives had passed. They thought they could be best friends for life.

Who would have thought that after Jiang Yi came back injured, He Yaqin would be afraid of him, despise him, and turn around and marry someone else.

Even though this was a matter between two young people, Zhao Cui was on He Yaqin's side at the time. Although Yang Wenhui knew who was responsible for this matter, no one wanted to push their daughter into the fire pit.

But everyone is selfish, especially her daughter who she had watched grow up and loved like a daughter-in-law. She can change at any time. Now she can no longer treat Zhao Cui as her best friend, nor can she treat He Yaqin as her own daughter.

So this time when she looked for help, she only asked Aunt Zhu and Aunt Su for help.

Aunt Zhu was obviously more outspoken, so she said, "Wenhui, don't say that. Xiao Jiang is a very good person and so capable. It's only right that he can marry a girl like Xiaoyu."

Yang Wenhui smiled and nodded. "I've finally put my mind at ease. From now on, I just want to treat Xiaoyu as my own daughter. I'll do my best to treat her well and will never let her suffer the grievances and hardships that I've endured."

Aunt Zhu also smiled and said, "Xiaoyu will be blessed to marry into your family. You and Brother Jiang are both gentle people. She will definitely like your family very much."

Aunt Su agreed: "Yes, the other girls didn't dare to approach Xiao Jiang, but Xiao Yu still protected him. This shows that Xiao Yu is a girl with feelings and loyalty. Look... I heard them say on the way here. When Xiao Yu came here today, someone was saying bad things about Xiao Jiang. Xiao Yu stood up and scolded them, and even asked Ding Dang to chase them, and they were all scared to death."

"Really?" Yang Wenhui felt even happier. She wanted to know more, so she asked, "What did Xiaoyu say about those people back then?"

Aunt Su gave her a brief account of it.

After hearing Xu Yu scold those people and asking Dingdang to chase after that gossipy aunt, the three women couldn't help but burst out laughing.

……

Xu Yu didn't know how long he stayed in Jiang Yi's room until he heard Yang Wenhui's voice outside: "Xiaoyu, didn't you say your brother was coming over? They should be getting out of school soon. Do you want to go pick him up?"

Xu Yu hurriedly put down the herbs, responded, and then walked out.

Yang Wenhui was squatting by the water tank washing white radish. When she saw Xu Yu coming out, she said to her, "Xiaoyu, take Dingdang with you."

Xu Yu nodded, called Dingdang and walked towards the village entrance.

This is the time when everyone gets off work.

When everyone saw Xu Yu walking towards the village entrance with Jiang Yi's big wolfhound, they couldn't help but talk.

However, after Xu Yu's aggressive response at noon, even if people talked about her, they would wait until she was far away.

Not knowing how far he had walked, Xu Yu suddenly met a group of educated youth.

These educated youths were carrying tools for work in their hands. Although they were better-tempered than the native country people, after experiencing countless days of wind and sun, their skin had also become rough, and their complexion was as dark as that of the country people.

As luck would have it, Xue Yunyan was among this group of people.

Xue Yunyan's reputation among the educated youth in Shangping Village was obviously not very good. The other female educated youth were talking and laughing, but they ignored her and left her aside. No one spoke to her.

At this moment, someone saw Xu Yu and deliberately raised their voice to say, "Everyone, look, isn't that Xu Yu from the Red Star Village chief's family?"

As soon as this voice was heard, all the educated youth looked over.
