"Ningning makes sense." Pei Jiao covered the upturned corners of her mouth with her hands while cracking melon seeds.
Late at night, after Xu Ning had rested, Pei Jiao and Pei Chen came to Jiang Yan with interest.
"Cousin." Hearing the knock on the door, Jiang Yi opened the door and saw that it was Pei Jiao. He immediately made way for her to come in.
"Cousin." Jiang Yan hadn't rested yet and was sitting and reading a book.
"Ayan, what do you think?" Pei Jiao moved a stool and sat down opposite Jiang Yan, looking like she was ready to go to court.
Jiang Yan personally poured Pei Jiao a cup of hot tea and slowly said, "At first I had a purpose, but now I really want to marry Aning."
Jiang Yan did not hide anything from Pei Jiao. After all, Pei Jiao knew a lot about him and was also clear about the purpose of what Jiang Yan said.
"Then what did Ningning tell you?" Pei Jiao was very curious.
"She refused at the beginning. It's not that she doesn't like me, but she doesn't want to get married. She has been traveling alone for the past two years to avoid me. I won't force her. Now it's like 'boiling a frog in warm water', but we've become closer." Jiang Yan thought for a moment and told the truth.
Pei Jiao: "It's just her personality. I saw her accept your kindness today, which is a good sign."
Pei Jiao was very happy about her cousin and younger sister becoming a couple.
As someone who also doesn't want to get married, she understands Xu Ning better than anyone else.
She has been used to being comfortable over the years. If you put yourself in her shoes, she will feel less comfortable with someone around her after getting married.
Although she didn't hate Qi Songbo, she just didn't want to get married.
Pei Jiao thought about it seriously and said, "Ayan, have you ever thought about how you would cope if Ningning finally didn't want to get married?"
"Of course I have thought about it." Jiang Yan looked sincere and firm as he raised his eyes and stared at Pei Jiao.
"Then I will keep waiting. I won't force her to marry me, but I will always be by her side. I also believe that the person she is willing to marry will definitely be me." The eighteen-year-old boy still has a childish face, but he already has the handsomeness and charm that a mature man should have.
Pei Jiao smiled with relief, "Of course, there's no one in this world who is more beautiful and powerful than Ayan."
In the backyard of the county government office, not far from South City, Qi Songbo's desk was piled high with official accounts, which he was working through late into the night. Today, his good brother Qi Canglan had secretly told him that Pei Jiao would be accompanying Xu Ning back to the valley in a couple of days. To spend more time with Pei Jiao, he had gathered all his recent official work in the afternoon, intending to finish it all overnight and head over quickly.
Pei Jiao hid her whereabouts this time. To the outside world, she was still on a mission. In fact, this period of time was the rest time specially given to her by Jiang Yan and the Pei family.
Because she didn't know that not long after she arrived in South City, someone close to her told others about her whereabouts.
Xu Ning had a good rest for a day, and spent the next two days inspecting Happy Valley's industries with Jiang Yan.
Nowadays, the Happy Valley industry has long been mature, and each store has trained a number of independent employees. Xu Ning specially called everyone together for a meeting one night and informed them that part of the Happy Valley industry would be allocated to Xiacheng.
There were no issues with the Grand Minister of Agriculture, including the Pei family and Jiangyan. Qi Songbo also expressed no objection after sending someone to notify them.
The next issue was how to send people there. Xu Ning proposed a plan to subsidize meals and housing. If a family moved there, there would also be various subsidies for their families.
As soon as the plan was announced, employees with a keen sense of smell immediately rushed to sign up to participate. The situation was much better than Xu Ning had expected. Xu Ning then found the group of martial artists.
Seeing this group of martial artists again really proves the saying that "times are different now than they were in the past".
