Xu Ning ate the sour plum duck as he wished and also received a letter from the capital.
In the letter, Jiang Yan said that he would come to Haicheng soon and wanted to have a meal with her alone then.
After reading the letter, Xu Ning bit his hand and lay down in silence.
"Ningning, what are you thinking about?" The weather was getting hot, and during lunch break, everyone would basically stay on the first floor for lunch.
Xu Ning was lying on a lounge chair in the shade of the yard. Xu Yuan, Old Mrs. Xu, and Old Father Xu took a walk for a while to help digest their food, then came and sat down next to Xu Ning.
Xu An had already returned to the laboratory on the second floor, and was now drowsy.
When Xu Yuan came back and saw Xu Ning biting his hand with his eyes wide open, looking conflicted, he couldn't help but become curious.
"Aunt Yuan, I don't really want to get married yet, but I have to face this and complete it. What do you think I should do?"
Xu Ning put down his hand, which was already covered with teeth marks, and frowned. He turned to look at Xu Yuan: "Aunt Yuan, I'm a little nervous."
Xu Yuan reached out and touched her head, "Will it affect you if I don't do it?"
Xu Ning was a little surprised that Xu Yuan saw through him, but then he nodded. Without getting married and having children, the mission could not be completed.
In fact, Xu Ning couldn't figure out what she was avoiding or what she cared about. In the final analysis, it was just a mission.
But she has immersed herself in the role, and sometimes even forgets that she actually has a home in another time and space, and that is her true home.
Because Xu Ning couldn't figure it out, he avoided it for so many years.
"Then do as you think in your heart." Xu Yuan said to Xu Ning gently.
"But I have been following my heart all these years..." But I still haven't figured it out.
"Since it's been so many years, there's no need to rush. If you're truly unhappy, then it's okay to give up. If it's because of the person, then find someone else. If it's because of the matter itself, then let it go..."
"Aunt Yuan!" Xu Ning interrupted her in surprise, "I understand. I'll tell you later. Let me think about it first!"
"Bao, do I have to marry and have children with Jiang Shaoheng?" Xu Ning immediately asked the treasure chest.
Baibaoxiang once said that Jiang Yan was her target, but she didn't say that he was also her marriage partner.
"Hello, player, what are you thinking about? Do you still want to find someone other than Jiang Yan to marry? Is there anyone more suitable than him? Or, is there anyone who is more tolerant of you than him?" The mechanical and electronic voice of the treasure box stopped Xu Ning.
Yeah, what is she thinking?
Xu Ning was upset again. In fact, her real idea was not to get married. What was the good of getting married?
However, there is indeed a difference in who you marry. The difference between marrying Jiang Yan and marrying others is definitely huge.
After being reminded by the treasure chest, Xu Ning actually knew that in the Daqing Dynasty, apart from the Xu family, the person who was most tolerant of her was Jiang Yan.
Moreover, even his fellow villager, the Minister of Agriculture, was not as tolerant of her as he was. Of course, deep down in Xu Ning's heart, he actually believed in Jiang Yan more.
After figuring this out, Xu Ning felt a little more relaxed. She stared at the clouds floating in the sky with wide eyes, thinking: She was a little ungrateful just now.
"Thank you, Bao." If it hadn't reminded her, she might have been stuck in a rut.
"Aunt Yuan, you can actually give it a try first before considering it...right?"
"Why not?"
"That's right."
Xu Ning figured it out and wrote a letter back to Jiang Yan, indicating that she agreed to the date.
When Jiang Yan received the letter, he was already on his way to Haicheng.
Because of the wind direction, traveling by water was not as fast as traveling by land, so Jiang Yan chose to travel by land, and thus happened to meet the messenger.
As Messenger No. 1 received more and more business in Daqing Dynasty, he became more anthropomorphic.
After Jiang Yan received the letter, he didn't doubt anything except that he felt that Messenger No. 1 was a little strange.
Especially when he saw that Xu Ning agreed to meet him alone, his joy overshadowed everything else.
"Jiang Liu, go faster." Jiang Yan urged rarely. The secret guard called Jiang Liu was a little uncomfortable at first when he was transformed from a guard in public, but he immediately felt excited after hearing this.
He swung the whip so hard that it left an afterimage. The horse neighed loudly, raised its front hooves and started running wildly.
Jiang Yan, who was sitting in the carriage, was caught off guard and was shaken to the point of sitting down on the cushion.
Jiang Yan: He suddenly missed Jiang Yi and Jiang Er...
When Jiang Liu heard the sound, he knew he had made a mistake, but the horse was hurt by him and took a long time to slow down. At this time, both he and Jiang Yan in the carriage were thrown to the ground with their hair messy.
When it was time to rest at night, Jiang Liu lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
Jiang Yan felt complicated for a moment, but still did not punish him. After all, he still had to drive the car on the rest of the way.
Alas, after all, he was too short of manpower. Every time he gave an order, someone had to be there to guard it. Most of his secret guards had been transferred from the dark to the open and were inserted into various positions.
The reason why Jiang Liu was assigned to protect Jiang Yan was because he was unreliable in doing other things, but his martial arts skills were good enough to protect people.
Jiang Liu waited for a long time, and was delighted to find that Jiang Yan hadn't punished him. He didn't dare show it on his face, but the fact that he added too much salt to the cooking betrayed the fact that he was so happy that his hands were shaking.
Jiang Yan finished his dinner with a complicated mood. He thought that when they arrived in Haicheng, he would let Jiang Liu follow Qi Canglan and he would find someone else.
Qi Canglan was happily calculating his recent accounts. Seeing that the revenue had increased again, he hummed a little tune happily.
