The second thing was to find a craftsman to repair the house, and he himself rolled up his sleeves and started working. A man who is about to get married doesn't feel tired at all; he is full of energy.
I used to think I could make do with whatever I wanted, but now I'm dissatisfied with everything. The yard is shabby, the rooms are dark, and the roof is prone to dust. In short, I have the urge to tear it down and rebuild a brick house as soon as I come back.
However, he was still worried about not drawing too much attention, which might cause trouble for Jian Dan. After much deliberation, he decided to follow Jian Dan's requirements. Since the external appearance couldn't be changed, he would try to make up for it in the details.
Getting engaged doesn't seem to have much impact on Jian Dan; she can still eat and sleep as usual.
However, the news wasn't deliberately hidden. Before a day was up, the news of Jian's upcoming marriage was already spreading throughout the village.
Some people come to ask questions, and some people deliberately bump into me wanting to gossip, but apart from regular visitors and family members, Jian Dan maintains the same attitude.
However, this news was like an earthquake among the educated youth.
Even though Tang Sumei had already started making arrangements for her throughout the village, the educated youth subconsciously felt that Jian Dan wouldn't agree so quickly. Some even secretly wondered if Ling Weidong could succeed. Even Ling Weidong himself wasn't entirely without hope.
Who would have thought that, out of the blue, they skipped finding a partner and went straight to getting married.
Several female educated youths came over together, and their conversation inevitably turned to her.
"Everyone's saying you're getting married. It's a bit of a surprise, but we've come to congratulate you. Have you set a date yet? Is there anything we can do to help?"
Most of the educated youth didn't dare to cause any trouble, and they got along quite well. Jian Dan was also willing to coexist peacefully with them.
"Thanks.
Actually, let alone you guys, I don't even know what I can do. Everything that needed to be prepared has been done by others. Look at me, I'm so idle!"
"Have you set a date yet? When are you having the wedding banquet? We'd love to have a drink with you, wouldn't you be happy to?"
This is both simple and uncertain.
"The date has been set, but it seems very likely that there will be no banquet."
The group looked at each other, and Su Hong tentatively said,
"Yes, the groom's family doesn't want to hold a wedding?"
Thinking about it simply, there's nothing wrong with saying it.
"No, he's in the military. I'm supposed to go there with him for a while. Neither of us like crowds, so we don't want to go through all that trouble."
"You're moving way too fast. There wasn't even a hint of anything before, and now you're suddenly leaving."
"Yes, you don't know, those new people have been jumping around again these past few days. Lin Ziyue and Guan Xiaoshuang even want to come with us, saying they want to share in the good fortune."
Hmph! Do you really think I know nothing?
I'm telling you, it's better that you went with the army; it'll save them from constantly watching you."
I've been in a good mood lately, so I haven't really paid attention to those other random things.
"Still staring at me? Still asking me about things?"
Su Hong also pouted.
"Why don't you ask? You asked me that day when we were dividing the meat, why you got so much and who was with you."
Ha, you didn't even hear that, and you're still making sarcastic remarks, saying you're selfish and don't unite with the educated youth.
"Hmph, all I want is to eat your flesh, don't I? Do you think I can't tell?"
“When they came back from the commune last time, they were so scared that they didn’t dare mention you for several days. They were afraid even when we talked about you.”
I don't know if he's finally figured things out lately, or if he's plotting something again, but now he's starting to show off again.
To be honest, my skill level isn't very high, but it's still quite annoying to be targeted like this.
The two people caught in the commune last time were indeed infiltrators from other forces. Their arrest did have a deterrent effect on other forces, but more and more people are sneaking in.
Tang Sumei has only been here for a short time, and she has already encountered several schemes against her.
The educated youth didn't know why, but they could see some unusual things.
"Yes, leaving is also a solution, otherwise they'll cause you trouble sooner or later."
"Haha, don't worry, I'm not afraid of them."
"That's right"
Having made up my mind, I simply and decisively changed the subject.
"How's Sister Yan's child doing? Have you gone to see him? Has he grown a lot? Isn't he handsome?"
This topic resonated with many, and the atmosphere immediately lightened.
"I went there a few days ago, and this child really changes every day. He's fairer and fatter than when he was born. He laughs as soon as you tease him, and his little hands and feet are so soft and cuddly."
"Yes, that child loves to laugh, but,"
Tan Yajun's face darkened, and she quickly sat up straight.
"But what? What happened?"
The female educated youths had obviously thought of this as well, and they all stopped laughing.
This made Jian Dan's heart sink. She seemed to be having too much fun lately, and it really hadn't been there for more than half a month.
"What happened?"
"Li Yan, the situation is not good,"
"Then, get him to the hospital right away!"
Tan Yajun gently shook her head.
"it's useless.
Do you remember what the doctor said back then?
She nodded simply and blankly, still overwhelmed with joy at seeing Tang Sumei; she truly remembered the scene.
"It's fundamentally damaged; it needs proper care and recovery."
"right,"
Tan Yajun's voice was very soft.
"My body is very weak, like a paper doll. I could be taken away by a simple cold."
Jian Dan felt a tightness in her throat and could only manage to squeeze out a few sounds after a long while.
"Is there any other way? Do you need medicine? Or do you need nutritional supplements?"
