Chapter 76



The man smiled and greeted them, "You must be Xiaoxi and Xiaojie, right? Hello, I've been hearing Cuizhi mention you at home, saying that you went to the city, and now I finally see you."

Ruanxi and Ruanjie came back from their surprise and greeted them with a smile, "Hello, uncle."

Ruan Changsheng came out of the house and called Ruanxi and Ruanjie to eat. Seeing Ruan Cuizhi and her husband also came back, they called out together, "Xiaoxi and Xiaojie, my third brother-in-law, stop standing there, come in and eat, and talk if you have anything to say."

Hearing this, Ruanxi and Ruanjie followed Ruan Cuizhi and her husband into the house. The two still felt that this was sudden, so they hid a smile on their faces and looked at each other for a while, as if they had some happy event that they couldn't suppress.

When they sat down to eat, Ruanxi and Ruanjie still had the same expression.

Then Ruan Xi cleared her throat and asked Ruan Cuizhi: "Why didn't you tell us about your marriage, Third Aunt?"

Ruan Cuizhi said: "I went to the commune to get the marriage certificate, but didn't go through with it. I thought I'd tell you when I got back ."

Because Ruan Cuizhi's partner was eating at the table, some things were not easy to ask casually, so Ruan Xi asked a few simple questions and didn't ask any more. After dinner, they called Qian Chuan out and asked Qian Chuan secretly.

Qian Chuan smiled and told them: "Your Third Uncle was picked up by your Third Aunt."

Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie were surprised and said at the same time: "Huh?"

Qian Chuan's eyebrows and mouth were smiling, "Just after the Chinese New Year, you left not long ago, and your Third Aunt went to the town for something, and picked up your Third Uncle. Originally, your Third Aunt felt sorry for him, so she planned to take him in for two days, let him have a few meals, and then let him go. But he had no parents and nowhere to go, and your Third Aunt saw that he was down-to-earth and capable, So I kept him for a few more days and let him work at home in the tailor shop. But I didn't expect that he could read and write, and had more than a junior high school education. Nothing was difficult for him, and he could help your third aunt solve many problems. In short, except that he had no parents and no home, he was very good in appearance, character and other aspects. After getting along for half a year, I knew him inside out and had feelings for him, so your third aunt married him. I wanted to write a letter to tell you, but your third aunt was embarrassed, so I didn't tell you. "

Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie smiled when they heard it.

Ruan Xi cleared her throat and asked again, "What's his name?" Qian Chuan said, "His name is Yue Haofeng

, he is five or six years younger than your Third Aunt. You don't know, he is very caring, he treats your Third Aunt like an aunt, sometimes I see your Fifth Uncle is angry, so I let him learn from him." Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie just laughed when they heard it, Ruan Jie said, "Fifth Uncle is not bad." Qian Chuan snorted and said, "If he is too bad, I don't want him either." The three ran out and secretly told Ruan Cuizhi about it. Ruan Cuizhi and Yue Haofeng also heard from Ruan Zhigao and Liu Xinghua at home that Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie had been admitted to university. When they met again, it was lively again. Because Yue Haofeng had no parents and no family, his life story was very miserable. Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie did not mention these things in front of him and Ruan Cuizhi. Anyway, they knew what the situation was. At night, Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie went to the tailor shop with Ruan Cuizhi. Of course, Yue Haofeng was there. Because Yue Haofeng was with them, Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie did not mention Ruan Cuizhi and him. When they finished washing up in the tailor shop and were about to lie down to sleep, Ruan Cuizhi came to find them. Ruan Cuizhi walked into the room, sat down beside the bed, and asked them directly: "Qian Chuan told you everything, right?" Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie nodded, "Yes, she told you everything." Ruan Cuizhi didn't say much, just looked at Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie and said: "I don't know how to tell you in the letter, I felt embarrassed, so I didn't let your grandfather mention this. What do you think of him?" After observing for a long time, Ruan Xi naturally had her own feelings. She couldn't help laughing, looked at Ruan Cuizhi and said, "Anyway, I feel pretty good. You can see that you are in his heart and eyes, and he is really good to you." Ruan Cuizhi couldn't help laughing, and this laugh came from the heart. She nodded and said, "Well, I feel very relaxed and down-to-earth with him. Although he doesn't talk much, he is very responsible, educated and smart." Then she smiled again and lowered her voice, "The main thing is to be obedient and do whatever you tell him to do. He can farm and mine, and he does everything at home, such as washing clothes, cooking and sweeping the ground. He doesn't even let me touch cold water." In fact, even if she didn't say it, Ruan Xi could tell from her state that she was living a happy life now. A happy person has no sense of fatigue in his eyes, and the whole person is energetic and glowing. Ruan Cuizhi is like this now. Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie only come back for a few days every year. Ruan Cuizhi likes chatting with Ruan Xi the most and feels that she can gain a lot of useful things from them. So tonight she did not go to Yue Haofeng's room, but stayed in the same room with Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie. The three aunts and nieces chatted until late at night and fell asleep while chatting. The next day, Yue Haofeng did not call them when he got up. He went home to help clean the house and put up Spring Festival couplets. When Ruan Xi, Ruan Jie and Ruan Cuizhi got up and went home, the house had been cleaned up by him and Ruan Changsheng. Sun Xiaohui couldn't stand this or that, so naturally she couldn't stand Yue Haofeng either. Every time she saw Yue Haofeng working at home, she would mutter behind his back: "What's the point of finding a man like this? He doesn't look like a man at all, and he has no temper all day long. He just revolves around Ruan Cuizhi, and Ruan Cuizhi is his heaven. A man is a genius, right? He should let women revolve around him, and then he deserves to be called a man! Only Ruan Cuizhi would want such a fatherless and motherless man, and she can't find a better one!" Ruan Cuizhi didn't care what others said about her. Only she knew whether her life was comfortable or not. She once married a man who made people envy, and she understood a truth the most - life is not for others to see. When she lived with Liu Xiong, who didn't envy her for marrying to the town, and envy her for marrying a man with conditions like Liu Xiong, but how much bitterness she had to swallow behind the envy, only she knew. Now she lives a happy and stable life, and every day is sweet. Yue Haofeng has no parents and no home, but now she is a member of the Ruan family. She doesn't have to go to other people's homes to serve after she gets married. With someone to serve her and her parents to be with her, who in the whole Tianfeng Town can live more comfortably than her? Especially in the past few days, the two nieces have also come back, and they are so happy every day. But Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie can't stay at home for long because school is about to start. A few days after the Chinese New Year, the two were ready to leave. Because this year is another turning point of the times, after the reform and opening up, the society will undergo earth-shaking changes and there will be many opportunities, so in addition to going to college, Ruan Xi also has other plans in her heart. Since we have caught up with this historical moment when the spring breeze blows all over the ground, we naturally cannot waste it. She couldn't be like other college students who ignored everything, focused on completing four years of college, waited for assignment, and then sat back and relax with a stable job.

Although having a stable job is the most respectable thing in this era, her goal is not this.

In her goals and plans, Ruan Cuizhi is indispensable.

So the night before leaving for school, she called Ruan Cuizhi aside and talked to her privately.

She did not hide it too much and said to Ruan Cuizhi directly: "Third aunt, when I was in the city, I heard some rumors that the control over the private economy and population mobility may be relaxed in the next two years, that is, some people will be allowed to do private business, and everyone will be allowed to go to the city to find work. You can't do any big business in this mountain. If everyone is allowed to go to the city to find work or even do business in two years, do you want to go to the city, Third aunt?"

Ruan Cuizhi was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and couldn't digest it for a while.

She didn't even think about going to the town, let alone the city? Which city?

After a while, she digested some of it and asked Ruan Xi: "Which city are you going to? Where is your father?"

Ruan Xi looked at her and said directly: "No, you are going to the capital with me."

Ruan Cuizhi was surprised and stared at Ruan Xi, "Going to the capital? Me?"

Ruan Xi looked at her and smiled, "You, I'll go to school first to explore the way, and when I make arrangements there, you and your uncle will go there. You listen to me, find an apprentice to take care of him in the next two years, and you must teach him well and teach him well."

Ruan Cuizhi still felt like she was talking in her sleep, "But... is it possible?"

Ruan Xi was calm, "You don't believe me?"

Ruan Cuizhi hurriedly said, "It's not that I don't believe you, I just think... it's too hard to imagine..."

Ruan Xi took her hand and squeezed it, looking into her eyes, "Anyway, just listen to me. You can take on apprentices in the next two years, let them learn the craft and start their own business, so that there won't be no one to make clothes in the mountains after you leave. You can also practice your ability to lead people, and see how to teach them so that they can learn faster and better. Then we will start from a young age in the capital, and when we grow up, we will take grandpa, grandma, uncle, and aunt over to take over, and continue to grow up."

Ruan Cuizhi's heart was pounding especially hard when she heard her words.

Go to the capital? Go up to a big business?

Oh my God, she wouldn't dare to say such words even in her dreams.

If these words hadn't come out of Ruan Xi's mouth, she would have probably cursed him for being crazy.

She looked into Ruan Xi's eyes, swallowed a big mouthful of saliva, and swallowed a big mouthful of saliva again.

Then she took a deep breath, nodded to Ruan Xi and said, "Okay! Then I will take a few apprentices in the next two years!"

Ruan Xi knew that she was very nervous, and couldn't help laughing, "Don't be scared by what I said, just think I'm bragging, and don't tell others, so as not to cause trouble. Anyway, you just take the apprentices, and leave the rest to me, don't think too much."

After a long moment, Ruan Cuizhi's heartbeat eased a little, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Ruan Xi pursed her lips and smiled, and suddenly changed the topic and said, "You can also take advantage of these two years to have a baby."

Hearing this, Ruan Cuizhi also pursed her lips, but the tight lips couldn't stop the smile from overflowing.

Ruan Xi understood quickly, and let go of her finger and pointed at her belly, "It can't be..."

Ruan Cuizhi nodded at her and said in a low voice, "It's not even three months yet, and I haven't told your grandparents yet. But we have already thought of a name, whether it's a boy or a girl, they will all have my last name, Ruan Yue."

Ruan Xi smiled and reached out to touch Ruan Cuizhi's belly twice, although she couldn't touch anything through the cotton-padded jacket.

After touching, she looked at Ruan Cuizhi and said, "Then the three of us will go there when the time comes."

Ruan Cuizhi looked at her belly, then raised her head and looked at Ruan Xi.

If what Ruan Xi said was true, and they could really go there when the time came, then of course she would be more than happy.

Now that the college entrance examination has been resumed, studying has become particularly important. If they stay in this deep mountain, their children will have no place to go to school.

If she can't go to school, she will have no future, and she will stay in the mountains like them for the rest of her life.

She believed Ruan Xi, and nodded to Ruan Xi with a smile, "Yeah!"

Then after saying these words, Ruan Cuizhi took out a wallet from her pocket, just like she did in the previous two years.

Ruan Xi did not refuse this time, and took it with a light breath.

After breakfast the next day, Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie took their luggage and left home again.

After separation and reunion became commonplace, there was no sadness, but the family members did not reduce the instructions to them, because they were afraid that they would be wronged if no one took care of them outside.

Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie left home again, but this time they were going to a completely new place.

Ruan Changsheng sent them to the commune and stayed with them in the guesthouse for one night. The next day, after breakfast, he went to Qian Chuan's house to borrow a bicycle, put one on the front bumper and one on the back seat, and took them to the county train station.

The bicycle stopped outside the train station, and Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie jumped off.

Ruan Changsheng told them: "This time it's just the two of you, no one is with you, you must be careful outside."

Ruan Xi nodded to him, "It's okay, it's not the first time we go out."

Ruan Changsheng looked at them with satisfaction and said: "You are more promising than us, study hard in the city. If you have any difficulties, write back. If you need money or anything, your uncle will send it to you."

Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie said in unison: "Uncle, we will."

After hearing the instructions, Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie turned around and went into the train station.

Ruan Changsheng watched them enter the train station, took a deep breath, stepped on the pedal, and turned back on his bicycle. The wind was very cold on the road, but he rode the bike very fast, and all the hair in front of his forehead was blown up.

Ruan Xi and Ruan Jie entered the train station, bought tickets and boarded the train.

They found their seats on the train, put their luggage up first, and then sat down.

While waiting for the train whistle to sound, Ruan Jie suddenly raised her hand and pointed forward, "A new journey! Let's start now!"

Ruan Xi turned her head to look at her and couldn't help laughing, "Our Xiao Jie has become more confident and lively."

I still remember that three years ago when she followed Ruan Changfu to the city, she was like a little white rabbit that came out of a cave for the first time. She would pull Ruan Xi's sleeve wherever she went. She was so nervous that she kept bandaging her face, dared not speak, and held her breath.

But now, she has become completely confident.
