Chapter Fifteen
Regarding her relationship with Lu Yuanqing, Yao Anhui had already made up her mind even before she had confirmed Lu Yuanqing's identity.
Because it's impossible for her to go back to the original owner's hometown to live there permanently. After all, the original owner lived there for more than ten years. Even though the original owner didn't have any particularly close friends due to her physical condition and personality, she still had friends. If she stayed there, she might expose her secret at any time.
Another reason is her outstanding appearance, which makes her much safer in the relatively simple environment of the military region.
Although she wasn't afraid of encountering someone like Wu Xingye again because of her special abilities, Lai □□ didn't bite, but it was annoying, and she hated trouble the most.
So Yao Anhui had already thought it through on the way here. Rather than living in the Guan family's house, Yao Anhui would prefer to get married sooner. As for the fact that they had only known each other for a short time, she accepted it well. After all, she had chosen the man herself. Besides, compared to most women in her previous life who got married without even meeting their future husbands, Yao Anhui was already very satisfied.
The main reason is that, in Yao Anhui's eyes, Guan Kangde is a stranger to both Xiang Jinghe and Lu Yuanqing. The only difference is that one is the husband Yao Anhui chose to accompany her in the future, and the other is her father's comrade-in-arms.
Therefore, when Hua Fangling asked them when they would get married, Yao Anhui shyly replied that it would all depend on Lu Yuanqing's arrangements.
Lu Yuanqing: ...
Lu Yuanqing excitedly said he would submit a report as soon as he got back.
To be honest, all of this is like floating in the clouds for Lu Yuanqing, who has been single for twenty-five years, has never had close contact with a woman, and has only been in love with Yao Anhui for less than five days.
He's just realized he likes someone, and now he wants to jump straight into a life of wife, kids, and a warm bed?
It feels like I'm dreaming!
When Lu Yuanqing helped deliver the things to Guan Jiayao Anhui's temporary room, he was still in a daze when he returned to his dormitory.
"What's wrong with Lao Lu this time?" His roommate was really curious. He had never seen Lu Yuanqing so absent-minded before, but today he did it twice. He was absent-minded in the morning because he had a girlfriend, but what was wrong with him being absent-minded in the afternoon? He didn't seem to have broken up with his girlfriend.
"I don't know. She came back and is sitting here looking all lovey-dovey. I guess she had a great time with her boyfriend today."
My roommate couldn't help but tease me: "Old Lu, you're something else! You went out and won first place in the all-army competition, and you even solved your personal problems. The political commissar will definitely praise you this time."
"Honestly, where did you find this partner? Does she have any siblings? Lao Lu, we've known each other for so many years, it's not too much to ask if we could be brothers-in-law, is it?" A fellow comrade-in-arms, who was also single and struggling with his personal life, couldn't help but ask.
"Yeah, Lao Lu, our dorm is full of bachelors. You can't be a traitor. At least take us with you."
"Get away." He pushed his roommate's hand away and said, "My boyfriend is from the same family as me, all alone. As for his cousins, I don't know."
What could Lu Yuanqing's roommates say after he said that? They could only awkwardly twitch their lips and say, "Well...it's pretty good. You two will have a home after you get married."
"It's just that after you get married and have a few kids, you'll probably find it noisy." They've been roommates for many years, and everyone knows that Lu Yuanqing longs to start a family, but he hasn't met a girl he likes all these years.
"By the way, how was your day?" one of my roommates quickly changed the subject.
“Great, we went out to buy things, ate at a state-run restaurant, and went to see a movie.” At this point, Lu Yuanqing couldn’t help but show off: “My partner agreed to let me file for marriage.”
"Wow, congratulations! Does that mean we'll be able to enjoy your wedding candy soon?" Everyone sincerely offered their blessings.
"In that case, hurry up and write the marriage certificate, then go get the house approved. Get ready quickly, with so little stuff, don't let the new house feel empty later."
“I think Lao Du is right. Look at you, you don’t even have a thermos, only a few clothes. There’s so much furniture to buy for a wedding. Not to mention other furniture, you definitely need to have things like iron pots.”
"And then there's the bride price. These days, it's all about 'three turns and one sound'—a sewing machine, a bicycle, a watch, and a radio. Don't expect these things just because your partner's family only has one child." It was clear that the person who said this had a good relationship with Lu Yuanqing.
"Yes, yes, and also the pots and pans, and the thermos. How about this, I'll provide the thermos for your wedding."
"Then I'll send you an iron pot; I happen to have that many industrial vouchers."
"Then I'll deliver..." The roommates chattered amongst themselves and practically bought everything that Lu Yuanqing's family might need.
"Stop, stop, hold on! You don't need to give me anything for my wedding. I'll prepare everything myself. All you have to do is exchange your industrial vouchers for me and help me exchange them for tickets, like bicycle tickets, sewing machine tickets, watch tickets, radio tickets. Try your best to get me whatever you can find."
Seeing Lu Yuanqing's expression, they knew he disagreed, so they turned to discussing the ration coupons needed for the wedding: "We should also need cloth coupons and grain coupons, right?"
Lu Yuanqing's dormitory was buzzing with discussion, while Yao Anhui had also found the box engraved with a five-pointed star.
After carefully examining the box inside and out for half an hour, Yao Anhui finally found a hidden compartment. This compartment did not contain any rare treasures, but only a piece of silk cloth soaked in a special potion and a golden key wrapped inside.
Three sentences were written on the silk cloth, and Yao Anhui understood them, or rather, the letter was addressed to her.
This is indeed the box that her adopted son gave her in her previous life.
The silk cloth contained a message left to her by her adopted son. After her death, her adopted son ascended the throne, and the original emperor abdicated and became the retired emperor. These few words were enough to put down Yao Anhui's obsession.
Based on her understanding of the emperor, that scoundrel valued power extremely much. For him to give up his power would be worse than death. There was only one possible outcome for his abdication: he had no choice but to do so.
It seems that she was indeed poisoned by him in her previous life, and his adopted son did not disappoint her by avenging her. This allowed Yao Anhui to let go of the last bit of obsession she had with her previous life. From then on, she was Yao Anhui in 1970.
Fang Anhui disappeared.
Yao Anhui let go of everything from her past life and began to pack up the things she had bought, preparing to integrate herself into this world.
However, she never imagined that she would be connected with her adopted son for the rest of her life.
