Although she had thought it through, Song Jinxiu was not yet ready to reply to Xia Xingchen. She was afraid that if she replied to him now, he would go home with her directly.
Then at the end of the year, I will be married off by the aunties and grandmas in the village.
It’s a bit scary to think about it, so I’d better postpone it for two months.
If we delay it beyond the second half of the year, we can postpone the marriage to next year.
Are we getting married next year? It feels like time has passed so quickly. I’m only 24!
No, it’s twenty-four, but I’m actually only twenty-three.
How can you use your blooming age to get married?
On Sunday, Liu Ankang arrived at the guesthouse early. They were going to have dinner at the Xia family today. After picking pears in a few days, they would be going back.
Liu Ankang's internship is almost over and he will soon have to go back to school to resume his classes.
Everyone was present today. Except for Uncle Hei and Uncle Zhou who didn't want to hang out together, Dakang and Aunt Zhou were here, and the three people from the Xia family were also present. Everyone gathered together in a lively atmosphere.
Xia Xingchen's vacation only lasts a few days, and he will return to the army the next day.
So after everyone finishes their meal, they let the couple go out to cultivate their relationship and come back when it’s time for dinner.
Liu Ankang watched Song Jinxiu and the other person being pushed out the door, and the feeling of panic began to return.
He was a little absent-minded the whole afternoon. Although he was still chatting with them, his thoughts had already flown away to who knows where.
It was not until Song Jinxiu and the others returned home after dinner that he came back to his senses.
Looking at Song Jinxiu's smiling face, Liu Ankang couldn't help but wonder where the two of them had gone to play at noon and why they were having so much fun.
Liu Ankang shook his head. He couldn't think too much about it. Isn't this normal? They were going to get married in the future and live together forever.
Thinking of this, I suddenly lost my appetite.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you talking?" Song Jinxiu asked while sitting on the armrest next to Liu Ankang.
"It's okay, I was just thinking about something." Liu Ankang said.
"Oh, am I disturbing you?" Song Jinxiu said quickly.
Although he said this, he had no intention of getting up.
"No need to disturb you. I've thought it over." Liu Ankang pursed his lips.
She still treats herself differently.
"It doesn't matter if you haven't thought it through. I've disturbed you anyway. You can think about it again later." Song Jinxiu said.
"You are so poor, why do you always bully An An?" Aunt Zhou pointed at Song Jinxiu and said.
"He's my brother. If I don't bully him, who else can I bully?" Song Jinxiu retorted. "Isn't that right, Xiao An'an?"
After saying that, she pinched his cheek.
"He's a head taller than you when he stands up. Be careful or he might knock you over," said Aunt Zhou.
"He dares." Song Jinxiu glared at Liu Ankang and said, "Do you dare?"
"I dare not." Liu Ankang shook his head in agreement.
This made Song Jinxiu laugh out loud.
Then I rubbed his head. Well, it felt as good as ever.
Aunt Zhou looked at them, smiled and shook her head.
Xia Xingchen couldn't come with us this year, so Uncle Xia sent a car to help with the transportation.
In the afternoon, Song Jinxiu brought fresh pears to see Liu Ankang, who was writing a report in the dormitory.
"I brought you a basket. You can give it to your tutor, close colleagues, or someone like that. Let's try it together." Song Jinxiu sat down on the bed.
The stool had already been occupied by Liu Ankang, so he had to sit on his bed and rest for a while.
"Okay, you will go back tomorrow. Be careful on the road." Liu Ankang reminded.
There happens to be an important seminar tomorrow and he can't leave, otherwise he would definitely go and see it off.
"Don't worry, we've been back and forth several times. Besides, there are three grown men like Uncle Gao." Song Jinxiu waved her hand and said indifferently.
"An An, do you want to stay in Beijing to develop in the future?" Song Jinxiu asked.
"It's not clear yet, what happened?" Liu Ankang asked.
"I'm thinking about moving to Beijing next year. Then you won't have to travel so far during holidays." Song Jinxiu said.
"Why did you suddenly think of coming to Beijing?" Liu Ankang asked.
It’s good to come to Beijing, then we can spend more time together in the future.
"Oh, it's still Xia Xingchen." Song Jinxiu complained.
"He asked me if I wanted to get married. You said he was almost 30, and I was 24. Calculating our ages, it seemed like it was time for us to get married."
Liu Ankang's heart skipped a beat. "If you don't want to get married, don't worry. No one's pushing you anyway."
"I thought so too, but Aunt Zhou said that life would be the same after I got married.
Being close to each other can help cultivate relationships better. Come to think of it, that’s true!
It won’t be delayed for much longer anyway, so we might as well get married next year.
Qiu Rou will also be taking the college entrance exam next year, so it would be nice for us to move to Beijing together then." Song Jinxiu said, swinging her feet.
No one saw Liu Ankang's face turn pale for a moment.
In the end, Liu Ankang didn't know how he got Song Jinxiu into the car. He just felt dizzy.
All the sounds were blocked out of my mind, and all I could think about was that she was getting married next year, she was getting married next year.
After returning to the dormitory, he was stunned for a long time before he slowly realized that she was going to get married. Wasn't this a fact he had known for a long time?
It's not surprising at all. At the age of 24, other people's children will run all over the mountains. Even if the man doesn't urge them, the villagers will.
It's something I've thought of a long time ago, so what's so surprising about it?
You'd better write the report quickly, Professor Hao is waiting to review it.
So he picked up the pen and began to write furiously.
If someone looks closely, they will find that the pen never touches the notebook and the position of the hand does not change.
Liu Ankang's eyes were empty and his attention was not on the paper at all.
The next day, the group set out on their journey home. Although Aunt Xia was a little sad, she was also happy in her heart.
His silly son is finally going to marry Xiuxiu home. At the latest, Xiuxiu will come home next year.
Then if we have a lovely grandson, our home will be much more lively. I feel happy just thinking about it.
"What are you so happy about? I see that your relatives have been coming to your house quite frequently recently. Is Xingchen going to get married?" A fashionably dressed woman came towards them.
That was Commander Sun’s wife. She had lived through too many hardships in the past, so she was keen on dressing herself up at home every day.
"No, it's just an ordinary visit to relatives. When relatives come, you must stay a few more days." Aunt Xia said with a smile.
Her relationship with the other party is not that close, and things have not been officially settled yet, so she definitely won't talk about it everywhere.
"Oh, is that your sister I don't see much of? I saw a young girl with you the other day. She must be your niece. She looks just like you.
"That's not right. Aren't you half-sisters? Do you look alike to your sister?" the other person asked curiously.
