"Why don't you just go back to the army, and I can take a bus back to town by myself. It's still early anyway, and I can get back to the village before dark."

"Do you think it's possible for me to let you go back alone?"

"But you have to go back to the army tonight, and it will be at least six o'clock to take me back to the village."

"Even if I get criticized by Commander Li, I must send you home safely before I leave."

His wife has no idea how attractive her face is.

During the time she was waiting for the bus at the station, she didn't know how many men had focused their eyes on her face. If he hadn't been there, those men would have come up to chat with her.

If he were asked to return to the village from the city alone, he would have to be crazy to agree.

"Wife, don't come to places like the county or city by yourself in the future. There are too many bad people there. I'm worried."

"There are bad guys, but they are a minority after all. We can't lock our doors even for normal travel just to prevent bad guys. That would be so tiring."

"I'm just worried that you'll be in danger alone."

"Don't worry, I've been working in the countryside for more than a year, and I can count the number of times I've been to the county and the city on one hand."

"Besides, I've been there so many times and I've never encountered a bad guy. And how do you know that if I encounter a bad guy, it must be my bad luck? Maybe I have the ability to defend myself."

Hearing her say this, Yan Ziyuan immediately thought of the time when she beat up the young man from the same village as them under the wall. Judging from the way she beat him, if something really happened, his wife might not be the one who suffered.

She seemed to have beaten Jin Kai before, but that guy refused to say how he was beaten and just gave an evasive answer when asked.

"Nevertheless, it would be best if you had someone with you when you go out."

"I know. Can't I ask Youyou to come with me next time?"

"Good boy~"

"Don't touch my head, I'm not a puppy."

"Why do I remember that you like touching Tong Youyou like this?"

"Nonsense, you must have seen it wrong."

Even if the facts were correct, as long as she didn't admit it, then he would be talking nonsense, and there was no one else around anyway.

When they reached the village entrance, Song Fuyu asked him to turn back, but Yan Ziyuan insisted on sending her home.

"Wife, please go inside first. I'll go next door to look for Akai."

Song Fuyu wanted him to return to the army quickly, but he didn't even let anyone open the gate and jumped into Jin Kai's yard easily.

"Little Potato, open the door!"

Jin Kai angrily opened the door, stuck his head out to look left and right, and when he saw that there was no one, he stepped back two steps and let him in.

"Keep your voice down, do you want everyone to know my nickname?"

"Don't worry, I just checked and there's no one outside."

"Aren't you going back to the army tonight? It's almost six o'clock now. Why are you looking for me instead of spending some time with your wife?"

"Of course there's something good coming to you."

"What good news? You're not going to trick me again, are you?"

"How is that possible? When did I, your brother, ever lie to you?"

Jin Kai rolled his eyes at him. When? Most of the time!

"Aren't you planning to bring your partner back to Beijing soon? Can you bring it back a little earlier?"

"no!"

"Well, I haven't called Aunt Lu for a long time. I don't know if she has complained to Junsheng's mother about you not finding a partner recently."

"If she knew that you already had a partner but had been hiding it from her, would she be angry?"

"I think Aunt Lu will be very angry."

"What do you want to do? You want me to go back to Beijing early? There must be a reason!"

"Xiao Yu has to go back to Beijing, and I'm worried about her taking the train alone. You guys will be going back soon anyway, so why not go back half a month earlier and go back together."

"Heh~~ To put it bluntly, it's all for your wife."

"It's not impossible for me to go back early, is that the condition?"

"I'll buy you and Tong Youyou sleeper berths to Beijing City, and I'll pay for it, okay?!"

"make a deal!"

"I'm sorry to have let you spend so much money, Brother Yan."

Jin Kai was so happy at the moment. He was just worrying about how to buy a sleeper berth. The sleeper berth to Heng City was helped by Yan Ziyuan before. This time, not only could he continue to help, but he could also save two tickets. He was so happy.

After dealing with Jin Kai, Yan Ziyuan returned to the next room.

"Wife, Akai and the others will go back to Beijing with you."

"Ah? I just heard Youyou say the day before yesterday that they would go back during the winter solstice."

“Changed.”

"Are you threatening Jin Zhiqing?"

"How come, am I such a person?"

"Then why did he suddenly change his decision?"

"I promised to pay for their train tickets back home."

"I see."

If you don't take advantage of a bargain, you're a coward. Anyway, it's only ten days earlier, no wonder Jin Kai agreed.

"I'll ask Lao Yu to buy the tickets for you. When they're ready, have him send you a telegram to let you know."

"Okay, I understand."

"It's getting late, you should leave now."

Song Fuyu looked at his watch and it was already past six o'clock, so he pushed him out.

When they reached the door, Yan Ziyuan pulled her into his arms, lowered his head and gave her a deep kiss.

Before his body could react, he let go of her cherry-red lips reluctantly.

"Wife, I'm leaving, remember to think of me."

"Yes, be safe."

Song Fuyu kept watching his departing back until his figure disappeared from her sight. Then she turned, went into the house and closed the door.

The next afternoon, Song Fuyu received a telegram from Lao Yu.

He helped buy the train ticket for the day after tomorrow at noon, and there was still one day tomorrow to prepare the things to take to Beijing.

She didn't have much to bring, but Tong Youyou was a little worried, always feeling that she should bring more things.

Song Fuyu did not try to persuade her. When she found that she could not carry the things anymore, she would naturally take out some of the things she had originally planned to take with her.

"Sister Fu Yu, have you packed your luggage?"

"It's all put away. I don't have much to bring."

She only had her own luggage and the clothes she made for the elders of the Yan family.

But this time she also packed some wine, ready to take it to Grandpa and Father Yan. Yan Ziyuan was not here, so she only took a few bottles and waited for the next opportunity to get more.

"What should I do? I find that I seem to be a little anxious."

"Why worry? Jin Zhiqing's family won't eat you."

"When Jin Kai first came to your house, you were also worried that your family would dislike him. Look, didn't everything turn out well in the end?"

"Even ugly brides have to meet their parents-in-law. You are so cute, there is no need to be afraid."
