"Don't worry, sister-in-law. Jianguo has been obedient since he was young. I will definitely find you a daughter-in-law that you will be satisfied with."
Aunt Wu understands her best. Whatever she says goes by her daughters-in-law.
If she doesn't obey, let her sons beat her up. If that doesn't work, send her to her parents' home for two days. I guarantee they'll be more obedient than the last.
"Fifth brother's wife, why are you here?" Aunt Wu thought she was here to laugh at her family.
Aunt Wu couldn't help rolling her eyes. She had been here for a long time.
Aunt Wu ignored her. She was feeling uneasy. There were some signs of trouble with the captain's family some time ago, but when she brought it up again recently, no one responded.
This made her anxious. Where else could she find such a good girl in the surrounding area? Not to mention that she was the captain's only daughter, she was also brave enough to sacrifice herself to save others.
If she gets together with her son and the army finds out, she won't be praised. Then her son will be worried in the future.
Fortunately, she was smart and coaxed her son back. As long as the captain's family saw her son, they would definitely agree. Is there anyone in the entire team better than her son?
"Son, go to the captain's house tomorrow. Now that you're back, go say hello."
Seeing that his mother was determined to let him marry the captain's daughter, Wu Jianguo frowned and went into the house without saying anything.
Ningxia hasn't had a good night's sleep these past two days. The girl in the front yard has been howling since before dawn. If you ask her, she'll just say it's because her injury is too painful. If you say anything more, it would be considered as a lack of sympathy.
Ningxia kept yawning while going to work, with tears filling her eyes. Her misty eyes met with a man in military uniform, and she didn't have time to close her mouth.
Ningxia nodded, then walked around him, believing that as long as I wasn't embarrassed, others would be embarrassed. She wanted to finish her pig grass early and go back to sleep.
Wu Jianguo, standing beside him, froze for a long moment before his face changed and instantly turned red. What had he just seen?
Did he see a fairy? She was a thousand times more beautiful than the one he led in the troupe.
He hurriedly chased after him, but saw no one. Could it be that he was hallucinating?
Ningxia probably guessed the identity of the man just now. He was the only soldier in the village and the heroine's husband in her previous life.
After the heroine was reborn, in order to get rid of him, she designed him to marry a widow. Not only did he retire from the army, but he was also left alone and helpless without even a child of his own.
This person has done nothing wrong. The only mistake he made was that he married the heroine in his previous life and did not give her the life she wanted.
In the cornfield, Wu Jianguo squatted on the ground and pulled weeds. It was August now and there was not much farm work to do. All everyone could do was weed and fertilize.
The rest depends on fate. As long as there is no severe drought or flood, this year will be fine.
"Jianguo is really hardworking. He doesn't even take a break when he comes home. He even comes to help with the work. Jianguo's mother, you can just wait and enjoy your life in the future!"
"That's right. My son has to be chased every day when he does some work. He's like an abacus, and he moves when he moves the finger."
"Hey, Jianguo's mother, your Jianguo is not young anymore. How are your plans for marriage? Do you have anyone chosen?"
"My mother's family has a niece who is very well-behaved and has everything under control, both at home and outside. The matchmakers have trampled down the threshold of our house. I think she and your Jianguo are a weird match!"
Wu Jianguo listened absentmindedly to his mother and several other middle-aged women pairing him up with more than a dozen girls.
All he could think about was the figure he had just seen. He had never seen her before, but she was carrying a basket, so it was obvious that she was from their village.
That would only be the mountain dwellers who came down from the mountains later, or the educated youth who went to the countryside. Their instructors had taught them that when they encountered a target, they had to act quickly, fiercely, and accurately.
He was certain he had his eye on that girl. It was just that her mother was having trouble with him; she was determined to get him married to the wicked daughter of the captain's family.
He had to find out the girl's identity first before doing anything else.
The captain's wife was working in a field not far away. She heard about the return of the boy from the Wu family and was actually very satisfied.
But her daughter, who had originally agreed, refused to do it no matter what. People in the village gossiped that she had fallen for the newly arrived educated youth.
How could this be possible? That educated youth had a partner. Her daughter was just too kind-hearted. Was saving someone wrong? Her father was so angry that he threatened to leave her alone if she didn't agree. Only then did she change her tune.
But my daughter is right. They have to show their attitude and ask him a few times. They can't agree all at once.
Her daughter said that a family had a good daughter, and hundreds of families came to her for help. She had to let them beg her, so that her daughter would not be bullied when she got married.
Wang Yingying's back injury has not yet healed. If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to see Xu Zhiqing every day, she wouldn't want to come out at all.
When she saw Wu Jianguo in the field, she was stunned for a moment, as if she had returned to her previous life.
This useless man seems to be a hot commodity now. Not only will he be discharged from the army next year, but he also has a broken finger.
She was taciturn and worked like an old cow. Even if he liked her and never asked her to do any work, so what? Only a worthless man would flatter a woman.
"Humph, a toad wants to eat swan flesh. Wu Jianguo, I will not marry you."
Wang Yingying walked over and glared at him when he wasn't paying attention. Once she and Xu Hengzheng were together, her father would definitely not force her anymore!
Wu Jianguo narrowed his eyes and thought for a while. The man's appearance had not changed much, and he still had that vicious face.
He lowered his head and continued to do the work in his hands. He wanted to eat swan meat, but she was at most a big black goose, the kind that kept nagging.
Seeing him lowering his head with a look of shame, Wang Yingying left with satisfaction, holding the mung bean soup that she was reluctant to drink.
When they arrived at the land where the educated youth were working, Wang Yingying saw Xu Hengzheng sitting alone under the shade of a tree to rest, so she hurried over.
