She met the man's awkward gaze and curled her lips into a smile.
This man is quite caring.
Qiao Qiqi smiled gently, feeling happy. If she weren't in such a hurry to get their marriage certificate, she would have definitely teased this man a bit. But for now, she just obediently sat still on the donkey cart.
The two locked the door and happily drove the donkey cart towards the town.
Just outside the village, I encountered an older woman wearing a scarf, hurrying towards the town.
Seeing the two sitting on the donkey cart, he asked with delight, "Young Master Qin, are you going to town? I need to go to town to buy some things, could you give me a ride?"
Since they all lived in the same village and they did indeed want to move to the town, Qin Huai readily agreed.

He's a weak scholar, can't lift a finger, just a pretty face. With your looks, you could find anyone you want!"
Sitting close by, Aunt Wu stared at Qiao Qiqi's fair and tender face, and even she, a middle-aged woman, felt envious.
The old lady loved pretty young girls the most, and fearing that this girl would stubbornly jump into the fire pit, she couldn't help but say a few more words.
"As the old saying goes, 'Those who don't listen to their elders will suffer the consequences.' Qiao girl, you must listen to your mother. You are her own flesh and blood. Would she harm you? If you really get together with that educated youth, then you'll regret it!"
