…
Amidst the joyful anticipation of everyone in the Gu family and the excitement of Gu Xiangbei and Jiang Xiaoqiao, the second day finally arrived.
Jiang Xiaoqiao took a leave of absence today and did not go to work. He Huaijun and Zhou Yan, as the older brothers and sisters at the educated youth site, also took a leave of absence.
Today, they will stay at the educated youth center to act as Jiang Xiaoqiao's relatives and make her look presentable.
Jiang Xiaoqiao accepted their kindness and planned to help them in any way she could in the future.
Zheng Shengnan and Fan Jiabao also wanted to ask for leave, but their requests were harshly rejected by the team leader.
However, even if they couldn't stay with Jiang Xiaoqiao, Zheng Shengnan and Fan Jiabao did what they could.
The two of them tidied up the yard of the educated youth site early in the morning before going out to work.
Jiang Xiaoqiao accepted all the kindness of the educated youth and planned to repay them when she had time in the future.
Jiang Xiaoqiao got up early in the morning and changed into an old military uniform.
In this era, everyone is proud to wear a green military uniform.
For some reason, Jiang Xiaoqiao also felt that this outfit was very suitable for her today, and Gu Xiangbei would probably like it too.
After changing into this modified old military uniform, Jiang Xiaoqiao also wore shiny leather shoes and tied two long, shiny black braids to her chest.
When they left the house, Zhou Yan's eyes lit up and she praised him softly, "Xiao Qiao looks really good in this outfit today!"
Jiang Xiaoqiao curled her lips and said, "Sister Zhou Yan, stop praising me."
Zhou Yan chuckled and said, "I'm telling the truth. When your comrade Gu sees you today, he will definitely be fascinated by you."
Jiang Xiaoqiao blushed slightly, brushed her teeth and washed her face, tidied herself up, and sat down to drink a bowl of corn porridge with Zhou Yan and He Huaijun.
Not long after breakfast, when the clock was about to point to eight o'clock, a voice came from outside the educated youth point.
He Huaijun and Zhou Yan stood up, and He Huaijun said, "I'll go take a look. It might be the Gu family."
Jiang Xiaoqiao suddenly became a little nervous and stood up as well.
Zhou Yan stayed by her side and whispered, "Xiao Qiao, don't be nervous, we are here."
It was Gu Jinhua, Gu Weimin, Wang Po, and Gu Xiangbei who came.
When they arrived, they carried large and small bags of malted milk, peach cakes, and various candies.
These gifts also represent the Gu family's appreciation for Jiang Xiaoqiao.
"Aunt, uncle, Aunt Wang, Comrade Gu, you are here." He Huaijun greeted them.
Gu Jinhua took out a handful of peanuts from her pocket, handed them to He Huaijun, and said, "Hello, He Zhiqing, hello, we are here to see Xiao Qiao."
"Aunt, Uncle, Aunt Wang, you are here."
Jiang Xiaoqiao called out in the yard, and Zhou Yan followed Jiang Xiaoqiao's instructions and went to the kitchen to pour brown sugar water.
When they saw Jiang Xiaoqiao, Gu Jinhua and Wang Po's eyes lit up.
The former is full of joy and appreciation, while the latter is full of brilliance.
Gu Jinhua thought: Oh my, Xiao Qiao, who is so pretty, kind, and cultured, will be her daughter-in-law in the future, and a member of their family...
Gu Jinhua felt very happy, with the corners of her mouth raised high.
Wang Po was thinking: How come it feels like it’s only been a while since we last met, but this young educated youth named Jiang has become more handsome again?
Oh my, what a pretty lady! You won’t find anyone as pretty as her anywhere in this area.
Gu Weimin was more reserved. Besides, as the future father-in-law, he couldn't keep staring at Jiang Xiaoqiao.
Gu Weimin doesn't care much about appearance. In his opinion, when Gu Xiangbei's leg was seriously injured and he was disabled, Jiang Xiaoqiao still stayed with him and even healed Gu Xiangbei's leg.
Gu Weimin admired Jiang Xiaoqiao's character very much and also accepted this future daughter-in-law in his heart.
If Gu Xiangbei dares to do anything bad in the future or treats his daughter-in-law badly, Gu Weimin doesn't mind breaking his legs!
As for Gu Xiangbei, from the moment he entered the courtyard and saw Jiang Xiaoqiao, his breathing almost stopped.
So beautiful, his Xiao Qiao looks so pretty today!
Compared with before, she caught his eyes more deeply, making Gu Xiangbei engrave her every frown and smile in his heart.
Jiang Xiaoqiao has a unique beauty in her military uniform.
Today, Gu Xiangbei was also wearing a military uniform, the same one he wore before he retired from the army.
At this important moment in his life, Gu Xiangbei wanted his "old friend" to accompany him through it.
Jiang Xiaoqiao invited Gu Jinhua and her group to go into the main hall of the educated youth site and sit down, with Gu Xiangbei sitting at the back.
Zhou Yan also brought out several cups of brown sugar water at this time, and Wang Po's expression became even gentler when she looked at Jiang Xiaoqiao.
Gu Jinhua's eyes were filled with pride. This was their Xiao Qiao!
It's just too generous. Those old ladies don't need to drink such expensive brown sugar water.
Inside the main hall, He Huaijun and Zhou Yan had originally wanted to put their utmost effort into supporting Jiang Xiaoqiao, but who knew that there was no place for them to do anything at all.
The betrothal gifts given by the Gu family were very generous. Not only in the countryside, but also in the city, few families could compare with them.
Moreover, although Gu Jinhua and Gu Weimin talk more and less, it can be seen that they value Jiang Xiaoqiao very much.
Not to mention Gu Xiangbei, his eyes have never left Jiang Xiaoqiao since he entered the yard.
The group quickly discussed the marriage between Jiang Xiaoqiao and Gu Xiangbei in the main hall.
As for the wedding date, Gu Jinhua and Gu Weimin had been secretly looking at the calendar at night for the past two days, and even secretly went to a fortune teller to calculate the date.
"Xiao Qiao, your uncle and I looked at the dates. One of the auspicious days this year is August 12, one is June 8, and another is the fifth day of next month."
It’s the twentieth of March now, and August and June have gone on a bit too long.
Gu Jinhua and Gu Weimin prefer the fifth day of next month, but marriage is mainly a matter for the young couple, so the most important thing is to listen to their opinions.
Actually, three days later is also a good day to get married!
However, three days later was too late, so Gu Jinhua and Gu Weimin had to regretfully cancel the date.
Gu Xiangbei also prefers the fifth day of next month. They are in tune with each other and there are no hardships hindering them now.
Gu Xiangbei thought that he wanted to confirm the information of Jiang Xiaoqiao as his revolutionary partner as soon as possible and never let go of her hand!
Jiang Xiaoqiao glanced at Gu Xiangbei, blushed slightly, lowered her head, and said, "Aunt, I don't have any opinions on this date, and I'm not good at choosing. I'll listen to you and uncle."
Gu Jinhua raised her lips and said, "Listen, listen to me?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Yes, I'll listen to you, Auntie."
Gu Jinhua thought about it seriously, feeling the burning gaze of Gu Xiangbei from behind her. She was also afraid that the night would be long and she would have more dreams, and that her soft, fragrant and beautiful daughter-in-law would be gone.
Gu Jinhua clapped her hands, looked at Jiang Xiaoqiao, and said weakly, "Then, the fifth day of next month?"
Jiang Xiaoqiao said, "Okay, on the fifth day of next month."
