Xu Daya and her group stayed for three days before leaving. Xu Yaoqiang borrowed a tractor from the village to take them home.

By the way, after Xu Mingyang left, Xu Yaoqiang was lucky enough to become the tractor driver in the brigade because he had learned to drive a tractor from Xu Mingyang for a few days.

To be honest, the Xu family really does seem to want to keep their wealth within the family, but there's nothing they can do about it. Their learning environment is excellent, so there's no point in being jealous.

However, there are more and more things to do in the brigade now, and Xu Xinning is very busy every day, so the brigade headquarters decided to select another tractor driver, and Xu Yaoqiang was promoted to mentor.

Neither Grandma Xu nor Yang Chunqin were stingy. In addition, since there was a lot of meat at home recently, Grandma Xu made some dried meat and meat sauce and sent it to Xu Mingyang and Xu Zexi. She also sent some to Cao Anian and Xu Daya.

After all, Xu Daya is pregnant, so she still needs to pay attention to her nutrition.

Xu Yaozu also helped exchange a lot of milk powder coupons, in case Xu Daya became mentally challenged and refused to breastfeed, the child would not go hungry.

Grandma Chen also brought a lot of food. The Chen family was well-off and never lacked malted milk powder, biscuits, and the like, so she prepared a lot for Xu Daya and told Cao Anian not to let Xu Daya go hungry.

In the past few days, Grandma Chen and Grandma Xu have made a lot of small clothes and diapers for the children to wear next to their skin with fine cotton cloth, thinking that the Cao family has no elders and Xu Daya is mentally challenged, so it is better to be prepared.

After organizing everything, there was so much stuff that the tractor was completely full.

Cao Anian was deeply moved; he had never seen so many wonderful things in his life.

When Grandma Xu saw them off, she wiped away her tears and said to Cao Anian, "Anian, we're entrusting our eldest daughter to you. If there's anything you can't handle, just call your uncle. When our eldest daughter is about to give birth, I'll have your father take me there."

Cao Anian held Grandma Xu's hand and replied, "Grandma, don't worry, I will remember what you said."

Grandma Xu: "Good, good, good child."

Xu Yaoqiang stood silently to the side without saying a word.

Xu Daya, who was in a daze, probably found it amusing to see so many people around and kept giggling.

Many people from the brigade came to watch the spectacle. None of them had ever seen Xu Daya who had gone mad. Some were watching the show, while others felt sorry for her.

Those members of the production brigade who knew what Xu Daya had done to Xu Xinning felt that she deserved it and secretly spread rumors that this was retribution.

Xu Yaoqiang hadn't visited Cao Anian's family since Xu Daya got married so long ago, so he wanted to take this opportunity to go and see them.

Xu Xinning stood upstairs watching Xu Daya slowly disappear from her sight until she was out of sight, then she turned and went to the study.

Xu Xinning found that her emotions were becoming increasingly difficult to control.

If it were her former self, she would never have taken someone like Xu Daya seriously.

My mother in my past life often said that one's heart is only so small. If you put all sorts of messy people and things into it, it will only be a punishment for yourself. It's really not worth it.

Xu Xinning used to do very well, but now she finds that her vision is getting smaller and smaller.

Perhaps she valued Xu Daya too much before, and that's why she's so resentful after being hurt by her own family.

Mu Jingheng was still busy making money. He was very anxious because Mu Jinghuai had already gone on a mission. If things followed the same trajectory as in his previous life, he should be in trouble in a few days.

In her previous life, Mu Jingheng only knew that Mu Jinghuai was "rescued" while completing a mission. The enemy's purpose in doing this was to get something from Mu Jinghuai and to find out the true purpose of their mission.

Unfortunately, they underestimated Mu Jinghuai's patience as a soldier; he guarded the secret until his death.

However, the military never found what Mu Jinghuai had retrieved, and the search for it by both sides lasted for decades without success, ultimately becoming a mystery.

In this life, Mu Jingheng wanted to find Mu Jinghuai before he got into trouble. His worst-case scenario was to find him when he was "rescued," so that he might be able to follow the clues and find the enemy's spy who had been planted in the country.

Mu Jingheng had already told Xu Xinning about this, and Xu Xinning had long been prepared to fight alongside Mu Jingheng.

Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng set off three days after Xu Daya and the others returned. Before leaving, they had a long talk with Xu Yaozu.

Although Xu Yaozu was worried about Xu Xinning, the affairs of the country were of utmost importance, so he could only instruct Mu Jingheng to take good care of her.

The journey from the provincial capital to western Hunan by train takes several days, but Mu Jingheng still used his connections to buy him a sleeper ticket so that he wouldn't be too tired.

Both of them had enough space, so they didn't carry much luggage and could be said to have traveled light.

The train's starting station wasn't the provincial capital, so the stop wasn't very long, and there were already many people on board.

Mu Jingheng bought a lower bunk and a middle bunk, so that the two of them could sit on the lower bunk during the day, which would be convenient for eating and other things.

However, there are always people who like to take advantage of others. When the two arrived at their carriage, they found that their beds had been taken.

The bed was occupied by a mother and daughter. The daughter was about the same age as Xu Xinning and the others, but the mother looked older, at least close to fifty.

Mu Jingheng walked over and said coldly, "Comrade, these are our seats, please make way."

The mother ignored her, while the daughter glanced at Mu Jingheng and then tugged at her mother's clothes.

Seeing that her daughter's eyes were practically glued to that man, the mother finally looked up and carefully examined Mu Jingheng.

She hadn't expected Mu Jingheng to be so outstanding, which explained her daughter's attitude, but she couldn't bring herself to be subservient to anyone.

Old woman: "Our seats are at the very top, why don't you switch with us?"

Mu Jingheng was so angry he laughed. He hadn't expected this person to be so shameless, acting so arrogantly even when asking for help.

Mu Jingheng leaned against the doorframe and replied with a roguish grin, "I don't want to be on top either, so what should I do?"

Seeing the stunningly handsome Mu Jingheng, the girl's heart nearly jumped out of her chest, completely ignoring Xu Xinning standing next to him.

Xu Xinning didn't intend to say anything; she would just quietly watch the show.

The daughter suddenly said in a sweet voice, "Comrade, we've already slept in this bed. Why don't you give it to us instead? We'll pay you the difference."

Upon hearing that his wife's bed had already been slept in, Mu Jingheng immediately flew into a rage.

Mu Jingheng: "Get out of the way! What's wrong with you? Why do you like sleeping in other people's beds so much!"

The middle-aged man opposite him chuckled, because Mu Jingheng's words were too ambiguous.

The middle-aged man boarded the bus at the same place as the mother and daughter. He had witnessed the mother and daughter looking down on him all the way. The middle-aged man had brought his own food but didn't buy the boxed meals on the bus, so the mother and daughter made veiled accusations that he was a country bumpkin. When he sat cross-legged on the bed, they said he was ill-mannered. In short, they didn't say anything nice about him.

The man took out a glass jar to drink water, and was mocked by the mother and daughter.
