I stir-fried the freshly picked wild vegetables, divided the mushrooms into two portions, one portion for stir-frying with meat and the other for making soup, then cracked three eggs to make steamed eggs, and then just stir-fried a simple vegetable dish, and that was about it.

Li Qingyue kneaded the dough and made steamed buns on the side. The two of them divided the work and got things done quickly.

Once everyone gets back, we can eat right away.

The newlyweds played around until midnight before going to sleep. The next day, after breakfast, Lin Xiaoxiao went back to her room to catch up on sleep.

On the third day, it was time for Li Qingyue to return to her parents' home. That evening, Lin Xiaoxiao strictly ordered Li Qingyue not to stay up too late.

It's impossible not to make a scene, haha.

On the third day, the two of them returned to Linjia Village early in the morning with the things Li Rong had prepared.

It was a bit windy riding the bicycle in the morning, so Lin Xiaoxiao took a scarf and wrapped it around her face and neck.

He stuffed both hands into Li Qingyue's pockets.

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Are you cold?"

Li Qingyue: "I'm not cold. If you are, hide behind me and hug me to absorb my warmth."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "I'm fine too, you've blocked the wind for me."

Li Qingyue: "As long as you're not cold."

Back at the Lin family home, Li Xiuqin had taken the morning off work and waited for them to return.

We prepared lunch and the family ate together.

Li Xiuqin pulled Xiaoxiao back to her room: "How are you doing over there?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Everyone is doing well, Mom. Don't worry, your daughter won't suffer any losses."

Li Xiuqin: "Qingyue is good to you, isn't he?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Mm."

Li Xiuqin: "As long as they treat you well, that's enough. In the future, you'll have a child and take good care of your own little family."

Lin Xiaoxiao knew the child wasn't in a hurry, but she didn't say anything.

After they went outside, they asked about the Li family's situation. Seeing that she looked well, her family was relieved.

In the afternoon, Lin Xiaoxiao and Li Qingyue returned to Lijia Village. They would be starting work tomorrow. Lin Xiaoxiao hadn't transferred her household registration yet and was still working in Linjia Village.

However, she can't stay in this position for too long, otherwise people will have objections. Anyway, she'll be taking the college entrance exam in two years, so she doesn't care.

After taking a shower that evening, the two lay in bed. Just as Li Qingyue was about to get closer to Lin Xiaoxiao, she pushed him away.

"and many more."

Li Qingyue asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Let's talk!"

Li Qingyue had no choice but to lie down and face her: "What do you want to talk about?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "What are your thoughts on having children?"

Li Qingyue: "What do you think? Just do it your way."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "I think we should wait a few years before talking about it. What do you think?"

Li Qingyue nodded: "Sure."

He also felt that the two of them were doing well and there was no rush to have a child.

Lin Xiaoxiao: "What about your home?"

Li Qingyue: "Don't worry, if they bring it up, I'll talk to them."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Okay, then there's no problem. Let's go."

Li Qingyue smiled when she saw her expression.

Lin Xiaoxiao: "What's wrong?"

Li Qingyue suppressed a laugh: "It's nothing, I just think you're cute."

Lin Xiaoxiao wrapped her arms around his neck: "Of course."

……

When getting to the point, Lin Xiaoxiao took out something.

Li Qingyue: ...How do you have this?

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Sent."

Li Qingyue: "How come I didn't know?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Shh, you're thinking about other things?"

Li Qingyue had no choice but to bring her attention back.

Two years later, news came that the college entrance examination would be reinstated.

High school students across the country were thrilled, especially the educated youth who had been sent to the countryside, who could finally return to the city.

However, many of them are already married and have grown children.

Some newlyweds even cried and regretted their decision upon hearing the news.

Lin Xiaoxiao talked about this with Li Qingyue that night.

"Remember what I asked you before? I'm planning to go back to university, what about you?"

Li Qingyue: "Of course I'll go with you, but I need to discuss work with my parents."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "You can sell it now. Neither your brother nor my brother has enough education, otherwise you wouldn't need to sell it."

Li Qingyue nodded: "Selling it will be just enough for our schooling and will also ease the burden on our family."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "I've saved all your salary from the past two years. It's enough for both of us to go to school. We'll figure out how to make more money later."

Lin Xiaoxiao got married and no longer takes money from her family. She also has her own savings, and she hasn't stopped making money in the past two years.

I cleared out some of the inventory; I'll stock up again when I have more money.

Li Qingyue: "Okay, then I'll quit my job and we'll stay home and study. There are only a few months left until the college entrance exam."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Yeah, you can help with some chores around the house while you're at it."

Li Qingyue nodded: "That's what I think too."

She had previously changed her household registration and started working with the Li family, but Li Qingyue didn't want her to go.

After all, he has a salary and can support her even if he doesn't work. Lin Xiaoxiao thought that if she didn't go, people would gossip and it would be troublesome, so she would still do something simple.

Now that the college entrance exam information has been released, it's perfect that I don't have to go and can just stay home and study.

"Xiao Qi, how are Lin Shuxue and Han Yi doing?"

Xiao Qi: "They decided to take the college entrance exam together."

After Lin Xiaoxiao married into Linjia Village, she saw Lin Shuxue less often, and only heard about their situation from others.

The two haven't gotten married in the past few years, and thinking back to the original plot, she knows it's because of the male lead's family situation.

After all, his family definitely wouldn't agree to him marrying a country girl. In the story, it was only after the female lead got into university and went to the capital that his family agreed.

Lin Xiaoxiao: "The male and female leads will definitely overcome all difficulties and eventually become a couple."

Xiao Qi: "Yes, host."

The day before Lin Xiaoxiao and Li Qingyue were to take the college entrance examination, they went to the city to take the exam. Their families came to see them off to the train station. Both sets of parents came.

Lin Youliang: "Don't be nervous, everyone. Just relax."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Dad, we understand."

Li Rong: "It's okay if you don't pass the exam. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

Li Dashan: "What did you say about not passing the exam?!"

Li Rong: "Yes, ptooey, ptooey, I'll definitely pass the exam."

Li Xiuqin smiled and said, "Keep it up, and be careful."

The two nodded and, under the watchful eyes of their families, entered the train station.

The two of them, carrying a little luggage, boarded the train. There were many people on the train who looked like they were going to take an exam.

There were several familiar faces among the educated youth, including Lin Shuxue and Han Yi.

Upon seeing Lin Xiaoxiao, Lin Shuxue came over to greet her: "Xiaoxiao, shall we stay at the same guesthouse?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Great, it's good to have someone I know with me."

Lin Shuxue: "How's your revision going?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "It's alright, how about you?"

Lin Shuxue: "I'm a little nervous."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Don't be nervous, relax."

Lin Shuxue: "Um, which university did you apply to?"

Lin Xiaoxiao: "I applied to the Department of Literature at Peking University."

Li Qingyue applied to the Department of Chemistry at Peking University, as he had always been interested in this field.

Lin Shuxue exclaimed in surprise, "That's great! Me too! If we get accepted, we'll be in the same school and the same department again!"

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled slightly: "Okay, good luck!"

The two chatted for a while, then, as the train was about to depart, they parted ways and returned to their seats.

Li Qingyue picked up her bag and said, "Sit down and take a nap. I got up a little early this morning."

Lin Xiaoxiao: "Okay, I'll sleep for an hour and then I'll take over for you."

You still need to be careful of theft on the train, so someone needs to watch your luggage.

Although the two of them only had two bags, there were still some cash and tickets inside.
