The Pei family's side was bustling with activity.
Cheng Xuelin, however, hurriedly took a car home.
When Cheng's mother saw Cheng Xuelin return, she started nagging.
"You silly child, instead of staying home and studying properly, what are you doing out there all day?"
Cheng Xuelin stood at the door, glaring at his mother, "Did you go to the countryside to look for her?"
Cheng's mother looked slightly uneasy. "What, did she come to you to complain?"
"I never would have guessed that a country girl could be so good at spreading rumors."
The reason we kept it from Cheng Xuelin was because we were afraid it would affect his college entrance exam.
Now that Cheng Xuelin knows, Cheng's mother is too lazy to hide it anymore.
"How many connections did I pull with your dad to get you temporarily transferred back so you could focus on your studies?"
Cheng Xuelin is now a sent-down youth, and according to the rules, he should not be able to return.
Even though the policies have been relaxed now, they still had to put in some effort to bring the person back.
"Your most important thing right now is to study hard and get into a good university."
Cheng's mother continued to persuade him: "If you don't get into university, you'll have to go back to the village. Are you really willing to accept that?"
Without hesitation, Cheng Xuelin said, "If I could be with her, I would be willing to stay in the village for the rest of my life."
Cheng's mother angrily shouted, "Just give up on that idea!"
"She's just a country girl, not to mention her family. You're like heaven and earth."
“Even if you don’t get into university, your dad and I will find a way to bring you back. We can’t let you stay in the countryside forever.”
When Cheng's mother saw that Cheng Xuelin was not speaking, she assumed that he had listened to everything.
"You're blinded by love right now, so don't pay any attention to her or see her, lest she come after you."
Seeing that Cheng Xuelin remained silent, Cheng's mother simply pushed him.
"I'm talking to you, can't you hear me?"
Cheng Xuelin said coldly, "She's getting married today."
"What?"
Cheng's mother's eyes widened. That girl, getting married today?
Seeing Cheng Xuelin's distraught appearance, Cheng's mother felt relieved, though she was also upset.
"She saw there was no hope for you, so she turned around and married someone else. She's no good either, so you shouldn't even think about her."
Cheng's mother spared no effort in smearing Pei Zhi, saying, "She's from the village, she's from the village. She can easily get rid of anyone."
Cheng Xuelin shouted angrily: "Your son is also a villager."
"How come you're from the village? You had no choice but to be sent to the countryside as an educated youth..."
"Enough." Cheng Xuelin didn't want to listen anymore. "Pei Zhi got married. She married a college student. Are you satisfied now?"
Cheng's mother was completely shocked. "Impossible! How could a college student be willing to marry a village girl?"
How many educated youth today, after getting into university, abandon their wives and children?
How could a college student be willing to marry a village girl?
"They're students at the university I wanted to get into. Are you satisfied now?"
Cheng's mother forced a smile, "That girl is lucky, aren't you relieved now? She's married, and she married well, so you don't need to worry about her anymore."
Why shouldn't I be interested?
Cheng Xuelin stood up, his eyes deep and dark. "Mom, let me tell you, in this life, I will marry no one but Pei Zhi."
"If she gets married, I'll wait for her to get a divorce. If she doesn't, I'll become her mistress."
"You..." Cheng's mother exclaimed in shock and anger, "You're utterly absurd."
Cheng Xuelin was too lazy to say anything more and turned around and went back to his room.
After taking a few deep breaths, Cheng's mother finally felt a little better.
Although Cheng Xuelin's words angered Cheng's mother, she didn't take them seriously.
It's understandable that Cheng Xuelin couldn't accept it at first and said a few harsh words.
Cheng's mother didn't chase after them to continue arguing; the most important thing right now was the college entrance exam, which was less than a month away.
On the Pei family's side, Jiang Qingyuan, drunk, was helped up by someone.
Jiang Qingyuan couldn't hold his liquor, so his two brothers-in-law didn't make things difficult for him and even helped him fend off a lot of drinks.
Otherwise, Jiang Qingyuan wouldn't have been helped in; he would have been carried in.
When the groom arrived, his sister-in-law, who was originally inside, first made some jokes and said a few lewd things before leaving.
As soon as the door closed, Jiang Qingyuan leaned against Pei Zhi, looking deflated.
"Are you really drunk?"
"It's alright, just a headache."
Jiang Qingyuan hadn't drunk much alcohol before, but he couldn't avoid it today, so he reluctantly drank a little.
"Come, lie down here, I'll give you a massage."
Pei Zhi patted her thigh and gestured for Jiang Qingyuan to lie down.
Jiang Qingyuan lay down, and Pei Zhi helped him massage his forehead.
Jiang Qingyuan's clear eyes were fixed intently on Pei Zhi.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Jiang Qingyuan honestly replied, "I never thought I would actually be able to marry you."
Pei Zhi lowered her head and smiled faintly, "People say that my family's ancestors' graves were emitting auspicious smoke, which is why I was able to marry you. How come it's different in your mouth?"
Jiang Qingyuan hurriedly explained, "That's because they don't understand just how good you are."
"College students are nothing special, you are unique."
Following Jiang Qingyuan's words, Pei Zhi asked, "What do you think about me taking the entrance exam for your university?"
If it were an ordinary person, they might laugh at Pei Zhi after hearing her words.
Pei Zhi, a girl from a village, wants to go to university? Isn't that just wishful thinking?
Moreover, although Jiang Qingyuan's university is not as good as Tsinghua and Peking University, its ranking is below Tsinghua and Peking University.
The admission scores are quite high, making it very difficult to get in.
Jiang Qingyuan readily agreed, "Sure."
Jiang Qingyuan imagined the future, "Once you pass the exam, the two of us can go to the same university."
Pei Zhi had no intention of going to university; the original owner of this body wanted to marry a university student.
Since it wasn't like she was becoming a college student, Pei Zhi was too lazy to create trouble for herself.
Things are different now; Cheng Xuelin is also going to take the entrance exam for the university where Jiang Qingyuan is.
Since the two of them are at the same university, if anything happens to them, Pei Zhi wouldn't know.
With Pei Zhi's knowledge, taking the college entrance exam in this era would be a complete disaster.
So Pei Zhi decided to get into the same university; with her there, things should be much better.
"However, there's less than a month until the college entrance exam. Why don't you prepare for next year's exam?"
Jiang Qingyuan was afraid that failing the exam once would dampen Pei Zhi's confidence.
He can help Pei Zhi prepare for next year's exams.
Pei Zhi said softly, "It's okay if you don't pass the exam this year. Just consider it as gaining experience and try again next year."
Jiang Qingyuan agreed with Pei Zhi's words, "You're right. Let's treat this year as a trial run and accumulate experience for next year."
Jiang Qingyuan held Pei Zhi's hand and gently squeezed it in his own. "So, can you let me gain some experience now?"
"What?"
Jiang Qingyuan lowered his voice, "On our wedding night, let's hurry."
Pei Zhi pointed outside: "There are still people drinking outside. What if they make too much noise and get heard?"
Jiang Qingyuan grabbed the blanket from the side. "It's okay, don't do it, I'll help you."
Before Pei Zhi could say anything, Jiang Qingyuan pinned her down.
