After collecting his belongings, Song Fuyu asked the team leader for three letters of introduction.

They are going to Qin City, Heng City and Jing City respectively.

Overall, their trip this time was not an easy one.

During the half-month holiday, at least eight days will be spent on the train. If the train is delayed or breaks down, the time may be longer.

Suddenly I miss the days of later times when airplanes and high-speed trains traveled at high speeds and there was no need to go through so much hassle to travel back and forth.

Early the next morning, the two of them took their luggage and things prepared for their godfather and got on Uncle Lin's ox cart.

"Hey, Song Zhiqing, you two took so many things, are you going to return home together as a couple?"

"You misunderstood. I just went home."

"So that means going home to get married?"

"It's good to get married. You seem to be eighteen already. When I was your age, my eldest son was already rolling on the floor in open-crotch pants."

Song Fuyu looked at the person who was speaking opposite him speechlessly. He really knew how to talk. He suggested that he should not say anything next time.

She smiled at the other person awkwardly and didn't say anything else.

She had no intention of becoming a mother when she was still a teenager, even though Yan Ziyuan was already 23 years old.

Although in this era, people in their twenties usually get married and have children, she came from a time decades later after all, and she knows the harm that having children too early will do to a girl's body.

For her, the plan to become a mother can only be discussed after she turns 20 at the earliest.

As soon as the ox cart stopped, Song Fuyu couldn't wait to get off.

Although she didn't respond, the aunt just now kept talking in the car. She wanted to tell her everything in detail, from marriage to child-rearing.

If she hadn't been carrying so many heavy things, it would have been easier to take a bullock cart, and she would have wanted to jump out of the cart and escape.

"Xiao Yu, slow down, there's still time."

"I just want to stay away from that aunt!"

"I never realized she was such a talkative person. Next time I go back to the village, I must avoid her so that she won't talk to me endlessly again."

"Oh, by the way, I have to emphasize something to you before we get married. It's impossible for me to have children before I'm 20 years old, okay?"

"If you don't want to..."

"I do!"

Before Song Fuyu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yan Ziyuan.

"I do. You're still young and growing. Even if we get married, I won't rush to have children."

"Don't worry, no matter whether we marry in or out, our children are all born after the age of 20, so you don't have to worry about my family urging you to do such things."

"Besides, my parents have many grandchildren, so they don't have to worry about not having to hold them. Besides, I think they are about to vomit from holding children."

Yan Ziyuan was telling the truth.

He still remembers that one year, his three sisters-in-law got pregnant at the same time, and the family had three newborns that year. Although the whole family was very happy, the three babies started crying at the same time, which was quite a headache.

Besides, as a soldier, he has little vacation time. He wants to spend more time with Xiaoyu, and doesn't want a little kid to come and cause trouble for him so early.

You can't hit him, you can't scold him, and even you are trying to steal his wife. It's such a loss.

After taking a bus to the city, Yan Ziyuan took her to a guesthouse closest to the train station.

"Comrade, please give us two rooms, closer together."

"Can you please show me the letter of introduction?"

Yan Ziyuan placed the two people's letters of introduction at the front desk.

The staff heard him say that the rooms should be closer and wanted to ask what the relationship between the two was. Because a man and a woman came, in order to avoid suspicion, they usually separated the rooms.

But when he saw that the other party's letter of introduction was issued by the military district, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​asking.

"The room numbers are 205 and 206. I will check in at 9:30 p.m. If you need any help, you can come to the front desk to find me."

"Okay, thank you."

After checking in, Song Fuyu lay on the bed, motionless.

Every time I take the bus, after two hours of bumpy ride, I feel like I’m reborn when I get off the bus.

"Xiao Yu, take a rest in your room first. I'll go buy some food. Do you want to eat anything?"

"Whatever you like, just buy whatever you like."

Yan Ziyuan asked outside the door, but she really didn't want to get up, so she could only answer through the door.

"Just bear with it for a while, don't sleep, wait for me to come back and sleep after lunch."

"good!"

However, although he said yes, when Yan Ziyuan came back from buying food, he knocked on the door several times, but did not hear any movement from inside.

It went without saying that Xiao Yu must have fallen asleep, so he had to take the meal back to his room first.

When Song Fuyu woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

She had only squinted her eyes, but she accidentally slept for more than three hours. She immediately jumped out of bed and knocked on the door of the next room.

Yan Ziyuan, who was sitting in the room waiting idly, finally heard a knock on the door and immediately got up and opened it.

"You must be hungry. I've warmed up the food with hot water. Do you want to eat now?"

"Sorry, it was so comfortable lying on the bed that I couldn't help but fall asleep."

He nodded Song Fuyu helplessly.

The reason why he asked her to wait until he came back and had dinner before going to bed was that he didn't want her to go to bed hungry, but he miscalculated.

"It's okay, come in and eat."

Yan Ziyuan stepped aside a little to let her in.

Instead of closing the door, he left it wide open.

They are not married yet, and it would have a bad impact if someone found them alone in a room with the door closed.

"I packed some chicken stew with potatoes and eggplant and beans."

When Song Fuyu heard that these were his favorite dishes, he quickly sat down and prepared to eat.

Seeing that the dish seemed untouched, her hand holding the chopsticks paused.

"You didn't eat?"

"I wasn't hungry just now."

She knew without even thinking that this statement was a lie.

"Are you stupid? You don't even know when I wake up. If I wake up at night, won't you be hungry with me?"

"Really, I wanted to wait for you to wake up and eat together. As time went by, I wasn't so hungry anymore."

"It's not that you're not hungry, it's that your digestive system is protecting itself and has gone into hibernation. If it happens too often, it can cause serious damage to your stomach."

"If this happens again in the future, you don't have to wait for me, just eat first."

"Okay, little housekeeper, I got it, let's eat."

After dinner, Song Fuyu went to the post office and called her godfather to tell him that she and Yan Ziyuan were about to return.

For a busy man like my godfather, surprises may not be appropriate.

If he is on a business trip, it would be a wasted trip.
