Feeling the softness of Xu Jiajia's body, Shen Yuebai's body suddenly stiffened and his ears turned red.

Xu Jiajia stepped out of the man's arms and looked up at him.

When Xu Jiajia saw this, her eyes widened.

The facial features are three-dimensional with clear outlines.

Wearing a military uniform, he looks righteous, heroic and upright.

Xu Jiajia's gaze was too scorching, and Shen Yuebai felt uncomfortable being stared at by her: "Comrade Xu!"

Xu Jiajia's heart trembled. Damn, not only is she good-looking, but her voice is also so nice: "Who are you?"

Know the original owner?

Such a handsome little brother, why doesn't the original owner have any memory of him!

Shen Yuebai took out a silver ring from his trouser pocket: "I am Shen Yuebai from the next village. Is this yours?"

Xu Jiajia looked puzzled: "It's mine, how come the ring is here with you?"

This was given to the original owner by Song Ran’s deceased grandfather.

The ring is not big, with a peach heart pattern on the face, rough workmanship and simple style.

Shen Yuebai said truthfully: "I picked it up on the shore."

Xu Jiajia remembered that the original owner put the ring in his pocket on the day he fell into the river.

"How do you know the ring is mine?"

Shen Yuebai paused as he spoke, "I've seen you wear it before."

Xu Jiajia stared at Shen Yuebai's face for a few seconds, then suddenly approached him and asked, "Do you have a date?"

The warm breath sprayed on Shen Yue's pale face, making it itchy and burning his cheeks.

"no."

Xu Jiajia's eyes lit up: "..."

Didn't Dad say that it's better to find someone yourself than to let a matchmaker introduce you to a partner?

The guy in front of me is not only good-looking, but judging from his clothes, he looks like a soldier.

Action speaks louder than words.

Xu Jiajia began by introducing herself: "I'm Xu Jiajia, born this year, and I'm an only child. Can we get to know each other?"

Shen Yuebai understood immediately: "Don't you have a partner?"

Xu Jiajia looked calm and said calmly, "I will cancel the engagement tomorrow and become single immediately."

This reminded Shen Yuebai of the rumors circulating in the village: "Comrade Xu, did your fiancé break off the engagement because of the drowning incident?"

Xu Jiajia shook her head and said in a disgusted tone: "No, he has someone he likes, but that person is a jerk and likes to be a bootlicker."

Shen Yuebai: "..."

He really wanted to ask what licking a dog meant.

I was afraid to ask, as it would appear that I was ignorant.

"I will bring a matchmaker to your house the day after tomorrow to discuss the engagement with the elders."

He rescued Xu Jiajia to shore and was seen by many people. Her reputation was affected and he should be held responsible.

Xu Jiajia was stunned. It was so fast, even faster than the high-speed trains of later generations: "Well, it shouldn't be that fast, right?"

Shen Yuebai said seriously: "This is not fast. My comrade got engaged and married in five days."

Xu Jiajia: “…”

OMG.

This is totally like opening a blind box!

Shen Yuebai didn't understand why Xu Jiajia was surprised, but he didn't ask much, but started to talk about his own situation: "I'm 22 years old this year, I've been in the army for six years, and now I'm the deputy battalion commander. I'm married and I used to follow the army, but now the army has no house.

So after you get married, you still have to stay at home.

I'll telegraph you when I get a house.

However, during this time at home, I will send you six dollars a month. "

Wages.

I kept two for myself.

The rest is all given to my wife.

Xu Jiajia was ecstatic, a worker's monthly salary was only about three yuan, she didn't have to go to work and could earn so much, this life was simply too good!

"I'm fine."

A man may be rich, handsome and generous, but any hesitation for even a second is a disrespect to his money.

Shen Yuebai told the bad things at home: "My biological father and stepmother don't like me. After getting married, you can still live in your mother's house."

Xu Jiajia was so happy that she almost fainted. Oh my god, there was such a good thing: "Okay, from now on you will be my father's biological son."

…

The next day.

At 12:00 in the morning, Xu Jiajia was awakened by Old Lady Xu: "Jiajia, get up!"

Xu Jiajia then remembered that she had to go to the Song family today. She quickly got out of bed and changed her clothes: "Grandma, shall we walk there?"

Mrs. Xu didn't want her granddaughter to go to such occasions: "Well, how about you not go?"

Xu Jiajia was dumbfounded: "Why?"

Old Mrs. Xu rolled her eyes at her and said, "Breaking off the engagement is not a good thing. Why are you going there?"

Xu Jiajia held onto Old Lady Xu's arm and said coquettishly, "Grandma, please let me go! I promise not to cause any trouble for you."

Who wouldn't be confused by this sweet voice? The bewitched old lady Xu responded with a "OK".

By the time she reacted, it was too late. She poked Xu Jiajia's forehead unhappily, her tone doting and helpless: "You!"

After washing up, Xu Jiajia came to the main room. Wild vegetable cakes and porridge were already on the table, with an egg next to them.

The eggs were cooked by Old Mrs. Xu for Xu Jiajia.

Her fever had just subsided and she felt a little weak, so the old lady wanted to give her some nourishment.

"Jia Jia, eat the eggs."

Xu Jiajia was very touched when she saw the skinny old lady Xu. She said, "Grandma, you guys have to work, so you need to eat better. You can share it with dad!"

Mrs. Xu deliberately put on a stern face: "What nonsense are you talking about? Stop dawdling and eat quickly!"

Xu Jiajia knew that she couldn't persuade the old lady, so she simply divided the egg into three parts: "Grandma, we can't do anything special as a family!"

"Okay, okay, no special treatment. Everyone gets a share, everyone gets a share." Old Mrs. Xu smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into slits.

She took the bowl and the egg Xu Jiajia gave her and went to the house next door, showing off with a beaming smile: "I cooked an egg for Jiajia to nourish her body, and that girl insisted on dividing it into three portions and let us eat them together, saying that family members should not be treated specially.

That girl is good in every way. She is so filial and obedient."

Mrs. Liu next door is about the same age as Mrs. Xu. They often quarrel, but they have a good relationship.

She looked at the egg in Mrs. Xu's hand and suddenly felt that the sweet potato porridge in the bowl was no longer fragrant.

She said sourly: "Yes, yes, you are the most filial granddaughter!"

After showing off, the old lady took a bite and said, "Oh my god, why are today's eggs so delicious!"

Old Lady Liu couldn't listen any more. She rushed him with a dark face: "Go, go, go back to your house and show off!"

Old Mrs. Xu looked at the rice porridge in the old sister's bowl and couldn't help but say a few words: "This porridge is too watery. Once I pee, my stomach is empty."

Mrs. Liu thought of her five grandchildren and sighed, "The little boys are eating up their parents. Those kids eat more than adults. If we don't save some food, the family won't have enough to eat until the day when food is distributed."

Mrs. Xu: “…”

Provoking hatred!

Knowing that her family is small, he still said this on purpose!

…

Shifeng Village is about 10 kilometers away from the town.

The walk takes about two hours.

Xu Jiajia had only walked one-third of the way and looked listless.

When Xu Jianguo was about to carry her on his back, a two-wheeled truck appeared.

Xu Jianguo saw who he was and asked in surprise: "Shen boy, did you buy a bicycle?"

Not only are bicycles expensive and require tickets, they are also in short supply.
