TRAIN STATION--

Looking at her grandparents who came to see her off, Ruan Xianxian smiled and waved.

"Grandma, we're going back to our hometown! My cousins ​​will be able to go back to Beijing with my grandparents in the next two months."

She threatened fiercely, "If you dare to come back and let me find out that you love them more than I do, I'll burn my cousin's long hair."

Just then, the train started moving, causing Yan Fenghua, who had jumped up to slap the jerk, to miss her target.

All the sadness of parting is gone, it's both infuriating and hilarious!

Only after he solemnly promised to love her the most and that no one would ever surpass her did he finally retract his head in satisfaction!

The two elders looked at Feng Guang, who nodded calmly, "Don't worry, in-laws, no one in my territory can cause trouble."

Take care, everyone!

After saying that, he took a few big steps and jumped onto the departing train!

...

"The devil who planted rice upside down is back!"

Pingtou Brigade Village Entrance —

A group of snotty-nosed kids having a snowball fight at the village entrance were initially stunned when they saw the tractor struggling to drive by. But when they saw Ruan Xianxian jumping off the tractor, they instantly went wild!

Ruan Xianxian, however, paid no attention to anything else and rushed to the tree, where she leaned against the trunk and vomited violently.

Miyano stood behind her, looking worried, and patted her back.

"Don't film me—ugh!"

"I'm really fine—ugh!"

After struggling for a long time, all that was left was a few mouthfuls of sour water.

Mu Xia, who also got off the bus, asked worriedly, "What happened? She didn't eat anything on the way here, so why did she throw up?"

Chen Zhaodi guessed, "Could it be... that she's pregnant?"

Everyone suddenly looked at Ruan Xiaoxian's belly, which was thickly wrapped in a military overcoat. There was surprise, there was anticipation, but the most intense gaze was one of deep confusion!

The person in question turned completely black-faced, and his voice became sinister.

"I've only been married for less than ten days!"

Even if she got pregnant on her wedding night, she couldn't have had morning sickness seven or eight days later, could she?

That's outrageous! His mother opened the door for him! That's outrageous!

"Let's go to the hospital." Miyano was worried. She hadn't eaten much on the train and looked listless. As soon as she got off the train, she rushed to the countryside, saying she wanted to eat a feast of pork stew!

No one can stop them.

Fortunately, the commune had an oil pressing and breeding farm, and several villages worked together to regularly clear snow from the roads to supply the factory with goods; otherwise, no one could even think about entering the village during the first month of the lunar calendar.

Are you feeling better now?

Ruan Xianxian was nodding when, in the distance, Hu Heshuo, along with Xiang Hongjun and a few other familiar families, trudged toward the village entrance.

Xiang Hongjun was overjoyed, "You rascal! I've been waiting for you day and night ever since I heard from Xiao Hu that you were coming back to the village."

We slaughtered a pig before the New Year, and a whole carcass of pork is still lying in the snow, waiting for you to come back and make a stew!

Then he nodded to Xiaxia, Zhaodi and the others, his breath swirling in the air, "It's good that you're all back, no one's missing an arm or a leg, that's great!"

"Let's go talk to the host!"

The nausea had subsided, and Ruan Xianxian was rejuvenated. Looking at the crew of flat-topped brigades under the white snow, she spoke with emotion.

With a loud shout: "The air here is always tranquil, the reservoir is always clear, the bright moon shines on the earth, and holds my deepest memories!"

Memories~

Xiang Hongjun stumbled and nearly fell headfirst into the snow. He clicked his tongue.

"Did our voice get bombarded by the Dwarf Army back in the day?"

The familiar feeling returned, and Ruan Xianxian ran wildly in the snow, letting Hu Heshuo direct the tractors from the county town to take the grain and meat they had brought to the educated youth settlement!

On the way to Lao Xiang's house, the other party told her that Xiang Nuan had gone to Beijing to attend the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University and would not be coming back for the Spring Festival this year!

As they ventured deeper into the village, more and more villagers who heard the commotion came out of their homes, including the Hu family, who had been driven to the cowshed but later built houses elsewhere.

Their eyes no longer held hatred for the young educated youth; instead, they were filled with warmth and hope.

In just one year, the oil pressing and breeding farm became famous throughout Heilongjiang Province, with chickens and ducks being harvested in large numbers, supplying meat to the outside world.

On his deathbed, he built greenhouses to raise chickens and ducks. Production was reduced, but not by much!

The chickens and ducks eat oil cake feed, and they are all plump and strong. One of them is equivalent to two of the dried chickens raised by us. The big factories in the county are lining up to buy them!

The greenhouse was completed and put into trial operation at the factory this year. The team leader said that if it is successful, every household can learn from it next year.

Team members receive fertilized eggs from the breeding farm, hatch them successfully on their own, and then the breeding farm buys them back.

With the growing popularity of one-meter vegetable gardens, this year is undoubtedly much better than previous years.

More villagers are out and about in winter, so there's no longer a situation where several brothers in a family have to share just one pair of cotton-padded trousers to wear in winter.

The team members know perfectly well who brought about all these changes.

This girl may be a bit of a troublemaker, but there are good things about her; she genuinely cares about everyone!

The Zhang family brought a jar of their own pickled vegetables, and the Li family brought two bundles of firewood. By the time they arrived at Xiang Hongjun's courtyard, everyone was already carrying them on their shoulders and in their hands.

Pushing open the old wooden door, the furnishings in the house were just as familiar as I remembered. "Come on, children, take off your shoes and get on the kang (heated brick bed). Get on the kang and warm up."

Sunlight streamed through the window; it was a beautiful day. Ruan Xianxian, having taken off her cotton boots, revealed her bare feet to everyone's undisguised gaze…

Slowly... a wisp of white smoke rose up!

Ruan Xianxian: ? ? ?

Everyone: ...

She curled her toes in embarrassment. "It's the heat evaporation effect."

Xiang Hongjun glanced sideways at him, "Hmm, it's not that your feet smell!"

He laughed, "It's alright, the kang (heated brick bed) was just lit this morning, the room will be warm soon!"

Having learned from the previous experience of using this thing as a conspicuous bag, Mu Xia and the others obediently sat on the edge of the bed, and none of them took off their shoes.

A plate of peanuts and a bucket of sorghum liquor were poured for the children by the Red Army soldiers. "Have a drink to warm yourselves up first?"

Ruan Xianxian picked up her wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. She hadn't eaten anything, and drinking alcohol would upset her stomach after vomiting. Gong Ye knew this but didn't stop her.

He never embarrassed her in front of others.

I just want to go back and settle in, and I need to cook a pot of millet porridge for my wife.

Just then, someone grabbed her hand, and Ruan Xianxian introduced her to Xiang Hongjun with a smile, "Uncle, this is my girlfriend. We got our marriage certificate at the beginning of the year and held our wedding on the 28th."

"Let's see if this works?"

People from Northeast China judge a person's character by their drinking capacity. They start talking after drinking and observe how the other person behaves when drunk.

After a lively morning, Ruan Xianxian finally had her long-awaited authentic farmhouse pork stew served.

After several rounds of drinks and dishes, everyone laughed as they watched Xiang Hongjun, who had drunk too much, put his arm around Gong Ye's shoulder and insisted on becoming sworn brothers with her boyfriend, talking and gesturing.

As the sun set, the group returned to their former educated youth settlement.

Before leaving, Ruan Xianxian entrusted this room to Ma Dajiao to take care of. It was very clean, and cotton quilts and mattresses were laid out for her. It was no different from when she left.

Ruan Xianxian lay sprawled on the kang (a heated brick bed), her arms and legs spread out, the warm and comfortable temperature making her flushed face after drinking.

"Old Gong... wants to!"

The man who was trying to help her change into her pajamas had a darkening look in his eyes, and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly; the atmosphere was getting more and more intimate...

After a day of deliberation, the system finally spoke:

[Stop thinking about it. Congratulations, host, you've had your wedding night for nine days and are now one month pregnant!]
