Qin Mi glared coldly at Wang Xiao, pulled Wen Xi into the dormitory, closed the door, and whispered to Wen Xi, "Liangliang, my family wants us to go home and hold another banquet, and it's inconvenient to transport those things from so far away, so we have to go back and get them ourselves."
"Huh? Go back to your home?" Wen Xi hesitated. "Qin Mi, our marriage is fake, and I'll be going back to my own place. It's not appropriate for me to go see your family, is it?"
Fortunately, the names on the marriage certificate are Hao Liangliang and Qin Mi. If it had been registered under Wen Xi's name, she would have thought she was getting married for the second time.
“I’ve already told my family about our situation. Otherwise, where do you think you got your household registration and ID? My family just wants to have a happy occasion and have some fun. Besides, my family has been giving money as gifts to others all these years, so we need to take this opportunity to get that money back. Don’t you agree?”
If you marry a goddess, who would want to marry an ordinary person?
Since he has no plans to get married again in this lifetime, he might as well take this opportunity to get back some of the betrothal gifts so that he won't suffer too much of a loss.
After all, their family has been spending money all these years, but has never been collecting money back.
"I will explain this to my family after you return to your world," Qin Mi said earnestly.
Wen Xi thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement, "Okay, then you go and arrange this matter!"
She went to Qin Mi's house to see if there was anything she could do to help or offer advice, as she didn't want Qin Mi's family to go through such hardship.
"Then I'll go ask for leave right now." Qin Mi happily turned around and ran out.
Wen Xi looked at the household registration book, identity certificate and marriage certificate spread out in front of her, and felt a little complicated. Weren't they supposed to be pretending to be engaged? Not only were they pushed into faking a wedding, but now they even have a marriage certificate?
Qin Mi quickly got leave and returned, excitedly saying, "I've already taken a week off. I'll buy a train ticket tomorrow and get on the train home early the day after tomorrow."
Wen Xi was somewhat surprised, "Is it alright to take such a long leave?"
"It's alright. The drought has been greatly alleviated in the areas most severely affected by your help. Other places haven't reached the point of starvation yet. Besides, there are so many people here. I can't do all this work by myself. There will be others to do the work after I leave. If I had connections, Uncle Wang wouldn't have approved my leave. Uncle Wang said that important matters in life are important." Qin Mi looked at Wen Xi apologetically.
The next day, the two went to the train station to buy tickets, and then to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy gifts. Qin Mi rarely went home, so he certainly couldn't return empty-handed.
Even though we have plenty of things at home, we still need to buy some things to make it look nice, otherwise the neighbors will definitely start pointing and gossiping when they see it.
Reputation is very important these days.
Wenxi didn't buy anything. She decided to take out two bottles of Moutai liquor, as well as some dried vegetables and fruit. In those days, fruit was scarce, and even if Qin Mi's family was wealthy, they might not be able to eat fresh fruit often, so this gift should not be considered insignificant.
Qin Mi knew someone, so he bought two sleeper tickets. It would have been too difficult to endure sitting in hard seats for two days.
Qin Mi took seven days off. He didn't eat in the canteen during those seven days, so he asked the canteen to give him the food for those seven days to avoid letting others benefit from it. After all, seven days' worth of food for two people is quite a lot.
On the morning of their departure, another staff member drove them to the train station, which was too far away. They didn't know how long it would take to get there without a car.
Once on the train, they found their sleeper car, which was empty. So Wenxi took out the things she had prepared in advance. One large bag contained dried mushrooms and dried wild vegetables, while the other contained dried chicken and dried rabbit. These things were hard to buy, so they were perfect for giving as gifts.
Of course, there were also two bottles of Moutai liquor and two ginseng roots that were twenty or thirty years old.
Before returning home, she gave the fifty-year-old ginseng to Qin Mi as a way of thanking him for taking care of her during this time. If it were someone else, they might have schemed against her and betrayed her, but Qin Mi chose to cover for her and even caused himself to remarry.
If I leave and he gets married later, won't he be misunderstood as a second-time husband?
This place is quite remote, and few people travel here. No one has entered this carriage except for Wen Xi and Qin Mi, which makes it quite convenient for cheating. They only occasionally go out to pretend to cheat, and most of the time they eat the food that Wen Xi brings out. Qin Mi feels that he has never lived such a good life in his life.
These days are worth remembering for a lifetime.
When the train arrived at the station, Qin Mi carried all the luggage over and told Wen Xi to stay close to him. Then the two of them got off the train with everyone else and walked out of the train.
Following the crowd outside the train, Qin Mi immediately spotted her grandparents standing not far away and excitedly exclaimed, "Grandpa and Grandma, how did you know I was back?"
"Grandpa Qin, Grandma Qin, hello, I'm Hao Liangliang. Thank you for helping me solve my identity problem, otherwise I would be an unregistered person and unable to move an inch." Wen Xi greeted Qin Mi's grandparents politely.
Grandma Qin took Wenxi's hand and looked her over carefully. "I never expected Liangliang to be so beautiful. Our Qin Mi is such a lucky boy."
In Grandma Qin's eyes, Wen Xi was tall and pretty, with curves in all the right places and a slim figure in all the right places. Her figure was truly excellent.
Moreover, she was poised, confident, and had very clear eyes; you could tell at a glance she was a good girl. Qin Mi was so lucky to have met such a wonderful girl.
Grandpa Qin said from the side, "Your grandma thought you would come back at least once, so she came to the train station to wait for you yesterday. We've finally got you back."
Wen Xi and Qin Mi exchanged a glance. If they didn't come back, would Grandma Qin come to the train station to wait for them every day? Would she only give up when Qin Mi called to tell her that she wasn't coming back?
"Liangliang, you must be very tired after such a long car ride. Let's go home and rest first." Grandma Qin took Wenxi's arm.
Wen Xi smiled somewhat embarrassedly, "Grandma Qin, I'm not tired. Qin Mi took good care of me the whole way and didn't let me do anything. I'm well rested."
Grandpa Qin asked, "Qin Mi, how many days will you be able to stay this time?"
"We can only stay for three days." Qin Mi felt a little guilty.
Grandma Qin said, "It's right for young people to prioritize their work. Besides, with Liangliang by your side, we won't have to worry. We don't have anything to do at home, so you don't need to worry about us."
