Armed with a machete and a gun, armed with a system, they fled the famine.

Chapter 431 Speaking Without Restraint

Just as Zhou Renbin was worrying about how to get back, he saw Yang Sanlang driving a carriage from afar.

Upon reaching them, he suddenly pulled on the reins and said with a smile to Zhou Renbin below, "Little Brother Zhou, would you like a ride?"

Hearing the noise, Zhao Yan, who was in the carriage, also lifted the curtain and looked at Zhou Renbin.

Her gaze fell upon Qi Caixia beside Zhou Renbin, and a look of amazement flashed in her eyes.

Oh dear.

Zhou Renbin has finally won the heart of his beloved.

She smiled and said to Zhou Renbin, "Yes, little brother Zhou, look at you two with all those bags. Hurry up and get in the car, don't be so polite with us."

The little baby in her arms clapped her chubby little hands and giggled, "Susu—Susu—"

Zhao Xiaomi poked Xiao Fubao's chubby little face twice and corrected him with a smile, "Silly boy, it should be 'uncle'."

"Hehehe."

Little Fu Bao didn't seem to understand, he just kept giggling.

Then, Yuan Tianbao's little head popped out of the carriage, his eyes darting back and forth between Zhou Renbin and Qi Caixia.

Chen Qingjiao sat at the far end of the carriage, holding her little Fu Niu, listening to their conversation with a smile.

Zhou Renbin couldn't make up his mind, so he whispered to Qi Caixia beside him.

“Caixia, these are Brother Yang and Sister Zhao. They’re staying at the farm across from my house. If you don’t mind, how about we hitch a ride back with them?”

The main problem is that the way back is still a long way, and they have a lot of bags and packages. If they had to walk back, they would probably have collapsed from exhaustion before they even got very far.

Qi Caixia had just glanced at the carriage and was immediately stunned by Zhao Yan's stunning beauty.

She was still wondering how there could be such a beautiful person in the world.

Hearing Zhou Renbin's words, she was surprised and worried that her arrival might displease him.

So she cautiously asked Zhou Renbin, "Brother Zhou, wouldn't this... wouldn't this be inappropriate?"

She was unaware of the relationship between Zhou Renbin and Zhao Yan, assuming they were just ordinary neighbors.

Zhou Renbin smiled at her and said gently, "It's alright. Speaking of which, Brother Yang is practically my mentor. Our relationship is actually quite good."

"If you feel embarrassed, you can make some clothes for Sister Zhao's little kids later. Sister Zhao doesn't know how to sew, so she always brings fabric to my mother."

Upon hearing this, Qi Caixia was both surprised and relieved.

She can sew clothes, and she does them very well.

"Okay, I'll get started when I get back."

Seeing that she agreed, Zhou Renbin stepped forward and stuffed the bags and packages he was carrying into the carriage.

“Brother Yang, Sister Zhao, her name is Qi Caixia, she is my... my betrothed.”

"My mom asked us to come and buy some things, but I ended up buying way too much, haha."

Zhao Yan curled the corners of her lips, her eyes filled with mockery.

"Understood, understood. Enough talk, let Caixia come up quickly."

Chen Qingjiao and Zhao Xiaomi, along with the other children, consciously moved aside to make room for the two of them.

Fortunately, the carriage was big enough. Zhou Renbin said he bought a lot of things, but actually there weren't that many. He stuffed them into a corner of the carriage, and they didn't take up much space at all.

Zhou Renbin chuckled twice at Zhao Yan's teasing gaze, then waved to Qi Caixia, "Caixia, come quickly, let me help you into the carriage."

"Ah."

Qi Caixia gave a soft reply, lowered her head slightly, and silently boarded the carriage.

Zhou Renbin followed closely behind and climbed into the carriage, sitting down next to Qi Caixia.

He wanted to go to the front with Yang Sanlang, but he was afraid that leaving Caixia alone here would make her feel uncomfortable, so he had no choice but to stay.

At least with him around, Caixia wouldn't feel so awkward.

"Are you all seated? I'm catching my train now."

Yang Sanlang asked from the front.

Zhao Xiaomi quickly said to him, "We're all seated, Dad."

"drive."

Upon hearing the sound, Yang Sanlang raised his whip and lashed the horse's rump twice. The horse obediently began to run forward.

Inside the carriage, Zhao Xiaomi and Yuan Tianbao, along with a few other children, stared at Qi Caixia relentlessly, almost making her cry.

"Cough cough."

Zhao Yan coughed lightly twice, breaking the awkward silence in the carriage.

She glanced at Zhou Renbin and asked with a smile, "Little Zhou, does this mean good news is on the horizon? Once you've set the wedding date, be sure to let us know, okay?"

Zhou Renbin quietly took Qi Caixia's hand, chuckled foolishly, and nodded to Zhao Yan.

"Definitely, definitely. I'll discuss it with my mother and the others when I get back, and I'll personally come to the farm to tell you."

"Ah."

Zhao Yan calmly responded and then said nothing more.

An awkward atmosphere fell over the carriage once again.

Actually, Zhao Yan didn't feel embarrassed at all; it was probably only Zhou Renbin and Qi Caixia who felt embarrassed.

Zhao Xiaomi, Yuan Tianbao, Chen Qingjiao, and Xiao Fu Niu all looked at the two of them with great interest.

After watching for a while, Zhao Xiaomi suddenly said to Zhou Renbin, "Uncle Zhou, I heard from my mother that you once vowed to find a wife who is as beautiful as a fairy, otherwise you would never get married. Is that true?"

Zhou Renbin awkwardly scratched his head, mumbled "ah ah" in response, and was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to look at Qi Caixia beside him.

He was young and impetuous at the time, and he looked down on anyone who was fat, dark-skinned, or ugly.

At that time, all he wanted was to find a beautiful, fair-skinned wife.

When Zhao Yan and her friends first arrived at the farm, he even had feelings for her.

Later, he challenged Brother Yang to a duel, but he has never won.

He had almost forgotten this part of history, but Zhao Xiaomi suddenly brought it up today.

He secretly wiped away non-existent cold sweat from his forehead, thinking to himself, "Thank goodness Sister Zhao didn't tell Xiaomi and the others about the embarrassing things I've done in the past, otherwise I would have been utterly humiliated today."

"hehe."

Zhao Yan chuckled twice and tapped Zhao Xiaomi on the head twice.

"Xiao Mi, don't talk nonsense. Your Uncle Zhou has Aunt Caixia now. Besides, isn't Aunt Caixia beautiful? Doesn't she look like a fairy?"

Zhao Xiaomi looked at Qi Caixia very seriously, and then nodded very seriously and said, "She's beautiful. Aunt Caixia is as beautiful as a fairy."

She gave Zhou Renbin a thumbs up, "Uncle Zhou, you have good taste!"

"Hehe, Xiaomi, you really know how to talk."

Zhou Renbin held Qi Caixia's hand tightly and said proudly, "That's right, my judgment has never been bad."

Qi Caixia blushed crimson and shrank back in embarrassment.

Brother Zhou really speaks without restraint.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qingjiao and the others all joined in the commotion, showering Zhou Renbin and Qi Caixia with praise.
