When Battalion Commander Zhu saw Jiang Yue's actions, his face darkened, and he was about to get angry, but Qin Xiang immediately pulled him back.
Qin Xiang shook her head at him and said.
"never mind."
Battalion Commander Zhu was displeased to see Qin Xiang looking so wronged, and said...
"Xiang'er, you're just too kind. Her rudeness is really too much."
Qin Xiang felt guilty. How could she tell Jiang Yue that she and Jiang Yue had completely fallen out? She was also afraid that Jiang Yue might reveal something. Now was a crucial time, and Battalion Commander Zhu was treating her exceptionally well. If Jiang Yue talked nonsense, it might arouse Battalion Commander Zhu's suspicion, and then she could forget about marrying him.
In truth, she hadn't let go of her feelings for Lu Yu. But now, marrying Lu Yu wouldn't be an easy thing for her.
Qin Xiang also considered using other methods.
But she dared not gamble if the plan was not meticulous.
With Battalion Commander Zhu around now, it's already a great blessing.
She could use this identity to deal with Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue wholeheartedly approves of Battalion Commander Zhu and Qin Xiang being together, and Battalion Commander Zhu seems to be doing well for now. Perhaps he's too shrewd to show it, or perhaps there are already some problems.
Qin Xiang and this Battalion Commander Zhu are together; we'll deal with them both when the time comes.
Battalion Commander Zhu brought Qin Xiang to the county town today to buy things.
The two went to a department store and bought Qin Xiang two sets of the most fashionable clothes, as well as some food.
"Xiang'er, please talk to your uncle and aunt and ask if they would agree to our marriage. I'll give five hundred yuan as a bride price, and you should have the same things as everyone else..."
Upon hearing about the dowry of five hundred yuan and the three turns and one ring, Qin Xiang's heart pounded violently.
She only has a few dozen yuan left.
It would take two years to earn 500 yuan, not to mention the cost of a "three-turn-one-ring" (a set of three-turn-one-rings) which costs over 1,000 yuan.
It would take her ten years to earn that much money.
Seeing the joy on Qin Xiang's face, Battalion Commander Zhu was also pleased.
He knew that getting Qin Xiang to marry him wouldn't be easy. Over the years, he had saved up all his salary, and spending a little over a thousand yuan to marry a woman from the capital was well worth it.
If you marry a local from Xiangcheng, the bride price is only one or two hundred yuan, plus a bicycle or a sewing machine.
But what he wanted was someone knowledgeable, cultured, good-looking, and from a good family. Among the people he knew in Xiangcheng, Qin Xiang was the best candidate.
Qin Xiang lowered her head and said.
"I will talk to them about this, but ultimately it's up to them to make the decision."
Qin Xiang did not budge.
She knew that if she agreed too quickly, Battalion Commander Zhu wouldn't cherish her as much. Only things that required great effort and money would be truly appreciated. This was something her mother had told her.
After arriving at the family compound.
Jiang Yue got off the car carrying her things.
After returning home, Jiang Yue busied herself in the kitchen.
She plans to make braised duck.
Hunan Province's braised duck is extremely famous.
Jiang Yue had made this a few times before, and it tasted amazing.
She plans to make some this time and take them back to Beijing so that her grandparents can have a taste.
Before long, the aroma of spices wafted out.
Many people came out of the house after smelling the fragrance.
Who's cooking here?
Tang Zhaodi was a clever woman, and she immediately went to Jiang Yue's courtyard.
