"Okay, I'll leave it to you. If it works out, I'll call your uncle and have your aunt take care of things at home."
"Okay, wait for my call tonight."
Zhang Hongmei felt bad after hearing Li Cuihua's words. She was too embarrassed to ask Shi Tou to take off his clothes so she could see, and she didn't know how badly he was injured.
Before lunch, Liu Xu returned. Zhang Hongmei looked at the pretty girl sitting across from her and asked, "Liu Xu, do you have someone you like?"
Liu Xu paused for a moment, then shook her head. "No, I haven't thought about that yet."
"So what do you think of the stone?"
"Stone?"
"Yes, it's him. Think about it now, this is a once-in-a-lifetime event, you need to think it through."
Zhang Hongmei had originally intended to let Shi Tou and the other man talk, but after Li Cuihua spoke up, she became anxious too. She wanted to seize this opportunity; if things could work out, great; if not, she had to find someone immediately.
"Go back and think about it yourself."
Liu Xu stood up, nodded, and went out.
Just then, I bumped into Stone. "Willow Catkins, shall we talk?"
Liu Xu looked up at the tall, imposing rock in front of her, which was backlit. She squinted at his face; he was a handsome man with a sunny smile.
"good!"
"Let's go to the study to talk." This was the first time Shi Tou had looked at the girl so seriously. Her skin was fair and delicate, her eyes were bright and sparkling, and her eyelashes were long. Her nose was pert and her lips were red and delicate. She was truly beautiful.
The two arrived at Zhang Hongmei's study and sat down directly in the outer room.
“Liu Xu, I am a soldier. I am twenty-four years old this year, and I will be twenty-five soon. I want to form a revolutionary family with you.”
Liu Xu looked calmly at Shi Tou, meeting his sincere eyes. "Do you know about my situation?"
Stone nodded. "I know roughly."
"First of all, I am an orphan, and I don't have a high level of education or a family to rely on."
“I know all that. I’m not looking for a partner, I’m looking for a wife. I don’t care about her education level. As for not having a family of her own, just treat my parents as your own parents.”
What about my job?
"What's the difference? We're the same. As long as you don't mind that I'm never home."
And as for willow catkins, I, Liu Aidang, have no bad habits, and I will be wholeheartedly devoted to my family.
Although we've known each other for a long time, we don't really understand each other. But we can try to get to know each other.
Stone was still a little nervous after speaking, looking at Liu Xu across from him, waiting for her reply.
Liu Xu thought for a few minutes, which felt like a very long time for Shi Tou.
Liu Xu certainly knew Shi Tou, and she knew his whole family. She also liked Liu Maocai and Li Cuihua very much; they were both simple and honest people. She was also familiar with Er Ya and San Ya; neither of them were difficult to please.
"Okay, let's get to know each other."
Hearing Liu Xu's words, Shi Tou felt relieved and a smile appeared on his face. "I still have more than a month of vacation left, I have to leave on the tenth day of the first lunar month, so we'll have a chance to get to know each other better. If you're free this afternoon, shall we go out and have some fun?"
Liu Xu smiled and nodded.
This really amazed Shi Tou. The girl was truly beautiful and poised.
Stone's heart was burning with excitement; this was his future wife. He then began to speak, telling her about his situation.
Liu Xu listened patiently, and even envied his childhood.
Shi Tou couldn't stop talking, and it was only when Liu Qiang came to call them for dinner that he reluctantly stopped. He was truly smitten with this quiet girl; so this is what it's like to see a girl you like.
Seeing the excited stone, Zhang Hongmei knew that the matter had been settled.
My worries have finally subsided. Lunch today tastes especially delicious.
The children are especially excited today because they can go home tonight.
After the meal, Zhang Hongmei called out to Shi Tou Liuxu.
"How did your talk go?"
Stone chuckled. "We've decided to get to know each other better."
"Here's my plan, you two listen to it."
I know you all well, and I was thinking that since Shi Tou is back on his long holiday, you two should get married.
After the marriage, Liu Xu went to the army with Shi Tou. "I'm at ease leaving my younger brother in your care," Zhang Hongmei said, looking at Liu Xu at the end.
Both of them were stunned. They had only just started talking, and they were already getting married?
Shi Tou thought to himself, this is not bad, he will have a wife soon.
"Sister Hongmei, I have no objection. Of course I hope it will be faster, but I will listen to Liuxu's opinion."
"Madam, isn't this too fast?"
Zhang Hongmei nodded. "It's coming soon. But since you two are dating with marriage in mind, you can get to know each other better after marriage."
I have confidence in both of you, otherwise I wouldn't have paired you two together.
"Willow catkins, think about it yourself. I'm not forcing you."
Liu Xu lowered her head, thinking about this matter. She had feelings for Shi Tou, and now they were all waiting for her decision.
Actually, she wasn't very familiar with the previous couples who got married, but she knew they were introduced by the lady of the house, and she heard they were all quite happy.
Most importantly, she likes Li Cuihua quite a bit, so there won't be any conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future.
Liu Xu thought about this in her heart and felt that getting married right away was not impossible.
"Yes, madam, I agree."
Zhang Hongmei smiled. "Okay, I'll call my third aunt right away. They'll go straight back to Liujiatun from Sanya's place. You two can go home from here. But you still have a week to spend together."
As for Shi Tou's marriage certificate, have your brother-in-law sign it for you. You two should get your marriage certificate in the capital first.
“Great! I’ll write the marriage report this afternoon,” Stone said happily.
"You should still call Brother Er Lengzi and tell him that if your vacation isn't enough, ask him to give you another month off."
"Never mind, I'll make the call."
Zhang Hongmei picked up the phone. "Third Aunt, you and Third Uncle should pack your things right away. I'll call Song Zigan and ask him to arrange for someone to take care of Sanya for more than ten days. The people sent here have arrived."
I also told him to buy you tickets right away, so you can just go back.
"Haha, great, that's wonderful."
Shi Tou took the microphone. He said a few more words to Li Cuihua before putting it down.
Zhang Hongmei dialed Song Zigan's number again. He was taken aback for a moment, but then immediately became happy. "Haha, great news! I'll arrange it right away. The person taking care of Sanya can be our neighbor. I've asked them before. I'll go buy the train tickets now."
Then he dialed Er Lengzi's number again. "Brother Er Lengzi, Shi Tou is getting married. Do you want to give him another month off?"
"marry?"
"Yes, it's willow catkins."
"I remember now, wasn't she the one who picked up Liu Qiang?"
