Su Xiao and the old man chatted happily outside, laughing and joking.
After an unknown amount of time, the sound of a train whistle could be heard again in the distance.
"Here it comes, here it comes." Su Xiao looked up expectantly, secretly praying that it would come quickly. The weather in July was unbearably hot, and even though she was hiding in the shade of the trees, the heat still made her dizzy.
"Little..."
Look, she might really be dizzy from the sun, otherwise how could she have such blurred vision and see Huang Feiyan and Cao Bing?
"Ah, Xiaoxiao, how did you know we were coming? You came all the way to pick us up!" Huang Feiyan was overjoyed and gave Su Xiao a big bear hug, wishing she could jump up and down three more times.
"Ouch..." Su Xiao almost fell over from the bump, her face full of disbelief. "What are you doing here?"
"We've gone to the countryside!" Huang Feiyan seemed very happy, her eyes full of smiles.
Cao Bing scratched his head, looking somewhat reserved. "Student Su."
"Kids, are you two the educated youth who went to Xiaheshan Village?" the old man asked in a loud voice to confirm.
"Yes, sir." Cao Bing quickly nodded and greeted him.
The old man nodded. "Okay, then get in the car quickly, let's go."
There was no time for catching up; the group quickly got into the car. The old man's tractor was already running. He really was still the old man; he wouldn't waste a single moment.
With the chugging sound of the tractor, Su Xiao learned the reason why the two had gone to the countryside.
After graduation, Huang Feiyan's mother couldn't wait to introduce her to potential partners.
My boyfriend is quite good-looking. He's the youngest son in his family. After graduating from junior high school, his sister got married, and his family used the dowry to find him a job. However, it's been four years, and he's still a temporary worker. He hasn't been promoted yet, and I don't know how he's managed to get by.
Huang Feiyan's mother thought it was a good idea; at least temporary workers had jobs and didn't have to go to the countryside. Her daughter could stay in the city after marrying into the family.
Unfortunately, Huang Feiyan didn't like it and absolutely refused to agree.
Her mother was furious and asked someone to introduce her to another man, a regular worker, but he was old, somewhat ugly, and had difficulty speaking.
Huang Feiyan's grandmother thought it was a good thing, because the salary of a formal employee is high, and her granddaughter won't have to worry about going hungry in the future.
Huang Feiyan was about to faint; this was even worse than the previous one.
Three people were introduced to Huang Feiyan, but she didn't like any of them and kept resisting blind dates. This made Huang's mother very unhappy, and Huang's father and grandmother all scolded Huang Feiyan for being immature.
Finally, Huang's mother lost her temper and simply decided to make the decision themselves without asking Huang Feiyan's opinion.
In ancient times, marriages were arranged by parents and matchmakers. It wasn't as complicated as it is now, where a girl can be so picky.
Upon receiving the news, Huang Feiyan immediately sensed something was wrong and tried again to persuade her mother, but not only did it not work, she was also scolded even more severely.
She knew she couldn't delay any longer, so she immediately went to find Cao Bing when she had a spare moment.
She had already thought about it; if she couldn't persuade her mother, she would go to the countryside to find Su Xiao.
Going to the countryside is easy, but getting to a place like Su Xiao's is not easy, unless you have connections.
She immediately thought of Cao Bing, whose father was the deputy director of the educated youth office.
Huang Feiyan found Cao Bing and told him what happened. Cao Bing was first surprised and then fell silent.
Just as Huang Feiyan was getting anxious, Cao Bing spoke up, "I can help you, but you have to help me too."
Huang Feiyan asked curiously, "How can I help you? Tell me."
Cao Bing looked at her with a determined gaze, "I also want to go to the countryside, to the same place as you."
Huang Feiyan was slightly taken aback, then suddenly realized, "You're going to find Xiaoxiao?"
