Chapter 39



The next morning, Jiang Yu showed up at Wen Yao's door on time.

She only knocked on the door a few times, and Wen Yao got up, got dressed, and went out to meet Jiang Yu, and then went for a morning run together.

"Why don't I have a golden finger? If you give me a storage space, I can still make a lot of money by selling things and have no worries about food and clothing," Jiang Yu complained.

"Don't you need me? I'll be your golden finger," Wen Yao said with a smile.

"So are you going to give me a lot of money now? I want to live in a big house, wear branded clothes, drive a luxury car, and find a handsome young model with eight-pack abs."

"You are useless. Those are just castles in the air. Only when you earn money with down-to-earth efforts can you feel real and have a sense of accomplishment."

"I think you are just jealous of me!" Jiang Yu pouted.

"Why would I be jealous of you?" Wen Yao found it a little funny.

"You are just jealous that I have the ability to imagine the future, while you just work hard!" The more Jiang Yu talked, the more he felt that he was right.

"I'm jealous of you, okay?" Wen Yao replied helplessly, "Hurry up and run, or your butt will be exposed to the sun."

The two chatted as they ran, and before they knew it, they had finished the usual distance.

Jiang Yu panted heavily and sat down on a stone by the roadside.

Wen Yao was doing stretching exercises to relieve the soreness in her leg muscles.

"Yaoyao, what do you think we will become in the future?" Jiang Yu looked into the distance and asked thoughtfully.

"Who knows?" Wen Yao stretched her muscles. "Maybe we will continue like this, running and chatting every day, and then have a baby and take care of it."

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "That's good too."

She turned to look at Wen Yao, "But if I really get rich one day, I will definitely take you to live a carefree life together."

"I don't expect you to get rich." Wen Yao also sat down, "As long as you are happy."

Jiang Yu felt warm in his heart, "Yaoyao, you are really my best friend."

"Of course!" Wen Yao gently bumped Jiang Yu's shoulder, "We are the ones who are going to grow old together."

The two smiled at each other, stood up and walked back slowly.

The morning sunlight shone on them, casting long shadows.

What will happen in the future? They don't know, but at least at this moment, their steps are firm.

After breakfast, Huo Jingqian said he would drive Wen Yao and Jiang Yu to the town to buy things.

Wen Yao agreed without thinking, it would be a jerk not to take the car when there is one. She didn't want to walk to the town.

After Jiang Yu had packed up, he took Wen Yao's arm and followed Huo Jingqian towards the troops.

They arrived at the gate of the army and waited outside while Huo Jingqian drove to the team.

After a while, Huo Jingqian drove out, with only one person sitting behind the driver.

Wen Yao opened the back door and got in with Jiang Yu, only to find that Lu Xingzhou was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Captain Lu? You're going to the town now?" Wen Yao asked in surprise.

"Well, let's go buy something," Lu Xingzhou replied indifferently.

"What are you going to buy? Just tell me and I'll bring it back for you, and you don't have to go there," Jiang Yu said quickly after hearing that.

Hearing this, Lu Xingzhou turned his head and gave her a meaningful look, then said with a somewhat unhappy tone, "No need, I'll go by myself."

"Don't be embarrassed, I can buy it back for you. Why are you so worried about me?" Jiang Yu didn't hear the unhappiness in Lu Xingzhou's tone and still insisted.

Huo Jingqian glanced at Lu Xingzhou, the co-pilot, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Jiang Yu, Yaoyao said she wanted to buy a sewing machine. Captain Lu will help carry it if we go together, so let's go together."

After he finished speaking, he stepped on the accelerator and drove away quickly.

On the way, Wen Yao and Jiang Yu were talking and laughing in the back seat. Huo Jingqian drove and responded to Wen Yao from time to time.

Lu Xingzhou acted like an outsider throughout the whole process, saying nothing and looking straight ahead.

If you don’t know, you might think there was a dummy sitting in the passenger seat.

"Captain Lu, why don't you say anything? Don't you like joking?" Wen Yao patted Lu Xingzhou's shoulder and asked.

"I... I don't know what to say," Lu Xingzhou replied somewhat unnaturally.

"Just chat casually, you don't have to be too reserved. After all, there are no outsiders here," Wen Yao said with a smile.

"Isn't he more of an outsider than a family member?" Jiang Yu interrupted.

Wen Yao tugged at Jiang Yu's sleeve, signaling her not to speak.

"Captain Lu, I heard that you will take some time out in the next two days to send Yanyan back to her hometown in Rong County?" she continued to ask.

"Still under consideration" Lu Xingzhou Road.

"Oh, is that so?" Wen Yao said, turning her head and looking at Jiang Jie with a reluctant expression, "Jie Jie, you said you were going back to your hometown, and no one would call me to run in the morning.

There is no one to chat with me or study recipes with me anymore."

Jiang Yu looked at Wen Yao blankly, not knowing what she was up to.

"Xiaoxiao, if you go back, you won't have to worry about being kicked out of the house one day because of the cold, or thinking about doing laundry and cooking for others. You won't have to worry about being kicked out of the house and having trouble sleeping and nightmares."

Wen Yao was still talking, but Jiang Yu was confused and couldn't tell east from west.

"Ajing, Yanyan and I agreed that after we get pregnant, we'll arrange a marriage for the child. If Yanyan goes back, this idea will never come true," Wen Yao said with a frustrated expression, putting a hand on Huo Jingqian's shoulder.

"It's okay, Yaoyao, we can wait until Qi Fang gets married and then arrange a marriage for his child," Huo Jingqian responded.

"Well, I don't want to send her back for now," Lu Xingzhou interrupted as if he couldn't hear anymore.

"If you don't send it now, are you waiting to send it later?" Wen Yao asked.

"No one can predict what will happen in the future, so let's talk about it later."

"Yeah, that's right. Let's talk about the future later. Who can guarantee that Captain Lu won't be deeply in love with Jiang Yu and inseparable from her for a moment?" Huo Jingqian echoed jokingly.

"Our Yanyan, only those who really understand her will find out how good she is. She is beautiful, straightforward and lovely. It makes no sense not to like her," Wen Yao said in line with Huo Jingqian's words.

Jiang Yu's cheeks flushed red as she watched the couple singing the same tune.

She should be under the car instead of in it. This awkward atmosphere really proves the saying: As long as you are not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

"Well, Yaoyao, stop exaggerating, stop exaggerating, or your vest will fall off!"

Jiang Yu blushed and refused to let Wen Yao continue to praise her, as she was almost tired of hearing it.

After driving on the road for half an hour, the car arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative in the town.

The supply and marketing cooperative has two floors. The first floor is the daily necessities area. As soon as they entered, they went straight to the home appliance area on the second floor.

The home appliances at that time were relatively not as diverse as those in later generations. The types were simple and single, and flashlights even had a place in the home appliance area.

Wen Yao and Jiang Yu saw the sewing machine placed in the middle from a distance, and walked towards it at the same time.
