Chu Tian coughed awkwardly twice. "Well, because Xiuli didn't say it clearly at the time and chose to escape and go home, and Li Zhiqing didn't react at all, I didn't take it to heart. But, I didn't expect that after two years, Xiuli is still thinking about him..."
After a pause, he continued, "Actually, Xiujuan, after spending more than two years together, I've found that Li Zhiqing is a really good person. He's polite, sensible, down-to-earth, reliable, and very approachable. He has a good reputation in our brigade, and many of the aunts like him. If Xiuli and he really can get together, it would be a good marriage."
“····”
Yao Xiujuan was silent for a moment, then sighed and looked at Chu Tian with a gloomy gaze. "But, he's an educated youth, and his family is from Beijing. If he can return to the city in the future, what will happen to Xiuli?"
Chu Tian thought of his previous conversation with Li Jianmin, chuckled and said, "Xiujuan, you have to know that there are always more solutions than problems. If you really want to, then it's not a big deal!"
After saying that, Chu Tian pulled Yao Xiujuan into his arms, rubbed his chin on the top of her head, and said affectionately, "Okay, things will work out when the time comes. How can we possibly know what will happen next?"
"Go to sleep quickly, I have something to do tomorrow and I have to get up early..."
Yao Xiujuan, “…”
The next morning, Chu Tian went to the brigade headquarters to gather without even having dinner. Before dinner yesterday, Captain Sun asked Sun Weiguo to tell him that he had already discussed with several team leaders in the team and decided to buy all adult breeding rabbits.
Because they wanted to buy them back as soon as possible, this morning Captain Sun and Accountant Xu took the car borrowing note that the regiment had already issued and went directly to the transport team to ask Director Li to send a car to Shihezi to bring back the breeding rabbits.
When Chu Tian rode his bike to the brigade headquarters, Captain Sun, pushing his bicycle, and Accountant Xu, carrying an old-fashioned leather bag, also arrived.
"Captain, shall we go?"
Captain Sun nodded and looked back at Accountant Xu, who couldn't ride a bicycle. "Accountant Xu, let me take you?"
Accountant Xu looked at Captain Sun, then at Chu Tian, and finally walked over to Chu Tian's car, got in the back seat, and said with a smile, "Let Chu Tian take me!"
“···”
Captain Sun looked at Accountant Xu speechlessly, thinking to himself, if you dislike me because I’m too old to take care of you, just say it directly!
Chu Tian chuckled, "Accountant Xu, please sit down."
In the transport team, Director Li looked at the note handed to him by Captain Sun, then looked at Chu Tian, thought for a moment and said, "There's no problem sending a car."
Captain Sun's face lit up with joy, and he was about to say something when he heard Director Li speak again.
"It's just that, of the three cars that have returned from the team, the drivers of two of them have just given birth and have taken leave to rest. The others haven't returned yet..."
Captain Sun was stunned for a moment, "Then, isn't there another one?"
Director Li looked at Chu Tian when he heard this, "Chu Tian, what do you think?"
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Director, I'll go there, okay? Anyway, this is for the benefit of our team..."
"Okay, go ahead."
Director Li took out a seal from the drawer, stamped it on the note swiftly, and signed his name.
Chu Tian took the note and said to Director Li with a smile, "Director Li, thank you."
Director Li waved his hand and said, "Go quickly. If you go now, you should be back around 8pm."
"Um."
Captain Sun walked out of the office and turned to look at Chu Tian. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, nothing came out.
Chu Tian checked the truck and was about to get in the driver's seat when Deputy Director Chen came over.
"Captain Chu, come here for a moment. I want to talk to you."
Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Captain Sun and Accountant Xu who were also about to get in the car and said, "Captain, Accountant Xu, you guys get in the car first, I'll be right back."
After saying that, Chu Tian turned around and walked towards Deputy Director Chen.
"Deputy Director, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Deputy Director Chen looked at Chu Tian and said, "I heard from Director Li that you are going to a certain corps in Shihezi, right?"
Chu Tian nodded, "Yes, what's wrong?"
"I have a letter I want to send over there, and the brigade you're working for happens to be the address I want to send the letter to. Could you help me pass this to their company commander?"
As he spoke, Deputy Director Chen took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, then reached out to take it, "Okay, is there anything you want me to tell him?"
Deputy Director Chen shook his head. "No need. He'll know once he reads the letter."
"Okay, I've delayed you for a while, let's get going quickly."
After saying that, Deputy Director Chen turned and left. Chu Tian saw him walk into the office, looked at the ink on the envelope that had not yet dried, smiled and shook his head, then put the letter in his arms, turned around and walked back to the truck.
On the way to the Shihezi Corps, Chu Tian glanced sideways at the two people crammed into the passenger seat. "Captain, is this too crowded?"
Captain Sun saw that there was only a fist's distance between him and Accountant Xu, and he quickly waved his hand, "Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, what's the point of squeezing here? I think everyone here can sit down."
Chu Tian nodded, "That's good. We are more than 200 kilometers away from Shihezi. We estimate that we can arrive around noon."
Captain Sun was surprised. "Is it that far?"
Chu Tian smiled and said, "Is it far? The Corps in Shihezi is relatively close to ours. The Corps in Northern Xinjiang and Southern Xinjiang are much farther away. For example, it takes us more than ten days to drive to Kashgar."
Accountant Xu's eyes widened. "It's so far... Aren't you tired on the way?"
Chu Tian explained, "I'm tired. If you say you're not tired, you'd be lying. How could you not be tired? Driving all the time requires not only concentration, but also the use of both hands and feet."
The three of them chatted along the way and time passed quickly. When they arrived at a regiment in Shihezi, Chu Tian drove directly to the gate of a company where there was a rabbit farm.
"Captain, let's go. Let's go find the leader of their company first. We need the leader's approval before we can go to the brigade to buy rabbits."
Captain Sun got out of the passenger seat of the truck, pounded his waist, and sighed, "We're so tired after just sitting for a few hours. Wouldn't it be even more tiring for you to drive..."
Chu Tian smiled when he heard this, and then he led them into the company and found Captain Li. After they had finished talking about what they had done, Chu Tian handed him the letter that Deputy Director Chen had asked him to bring.
Captain Li looked at the letter in his hand and looked at Chu Tian in shock. "You, you said Chen Zheng asked you to bring this to me?"
Chu Tian was stunned for a moment, "I don't know our director's name, but his surname is indeed Chen."
Chu Tian couldn't understand Captain Li's expression at this moment. He seemed happy and excited, but also a little sad?
"Captain Li, you?"
Captain Li took a while to react and said quickly, "I'll have someone take you to the second team to catch rabbits. After catching the rabbits, return to the company and have a quick meal before leaving."
Chu Tian nodded, "Okay, then let's go pretend to be a rabbit first."
"Well, go ahead."
The middle-aged man waved and walked towards the desk.
