Quick Travel: Cannon fodder, she always encounters yandere and paranoid people

Chapter 249 The Sick Cannon Fodder in the Chronicle 9

"Oh! There's also a TV!"

An uncle who was watching said loudly in surprise, and several aunts around also talked about the gifts Xu Xingzhou bought.

People in the city only pay attention to three turns and one ring when they get married, that is, radios, sewing machines, etc. The requirements for betrothal gifts in their villages are even lower. It would be good to have a tricycle at home.

As a result, Xu Xingzhou was going to marry the little girl from the Yun family, and as a wedding gift, he had all the radios, sewing machines, watches, etc., as well as the expensive TV set.

Few people can afford a TV set. People in the village only sometimes get together in the evening to watch movies organized by the brigade, and occasionally buy a newspaper to read.

Xu Xingzhou rolled up the shopping bag to cover it tightly and stuffed it into Yun Wu's hand.

There were so many neighbors and folks joining in the fun here that Yun Wu was embarrassed to say anything more to Xu Xingzhou.

"Then, I'll go in first..."

She whispered, her voice soft and weak, still holding the tightly wrapped shopping bag in her arms.

Xu Xingzhou watched Yun Wu and Tong Hui enter the house together. When she walked in, she glanced back, but found that his eyes were still staring at her, and she quickly turned her head away in embarrassment.

Xu Xingzhou didn't think there was anything wrong with him always staring at the little girl, because he was about to marry her. Although he had only met her a few times, he just couldn't get enough of her.

It would be nice if he lived next to the Yun family. Their homes are still quite far apart.

Xu Xingzhou had to go to the fields to do farm work, so after saying a few words to the neighbors, he got in the car and drove towards his home.

Fortunately, the road in the village had been repaired by someone from the brigade before, and it was fairly flat and spacious, allowing Xu Xingzhou's car to go in and out.

Xu Xingzhou parked his car in his yard. The yard was large, and the car only occupied less than half of the space.

As soon as he parked the car, he planned to go back to the room to get a shovel and go to the fields, but when the landline phone rang, it was Zhou Yi.

"Hey, Brother Xu, I finally rode to the military area..."

Zhou Yi drove over and came back on his bicycle. Fortunately, no one noticed his embarrassment.

"Thanks."

Xu Xingzhou said simply, then quickly took off his black sweater and put on a thin white coat to get ready to work in the fields.

He thought for a while, then took the landline phone and said to Zhou Yi:

"I don't need to hide my marriage. This is not a secret matter. I really want to marry her, and I'm not joking."

"What if the old man finds out and blocks you on the day of your wedding?"

"He can't come."

Xu Xingzhou frowned and said nonchalantly. He had made it very clear before he came out. Unless he went back by himself, he would not let anyone come to him.

"Brother Xu, you are so good. You can't live in a nice military compound and go to a village so far away. Many lesbians next door are heartbroken."

"You kid, don't fart all the time. I have never been in contact with them when I was here. Next time you see my wife, don't tell her that you don't have these things, so as not to misunderstand her."

Xu Xingzhou said with a straight face that he valued the man's innocence very much and couldn't let Yun Wu misunderstand him.

"You're asking for a wife before you get married. Does this little girl know that?"

"roll."

Xu Xingzhou said bluntly, and then hung up the phone neatly.

Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, he calls as he pleases!

Xu Xingzhou originally wanted to go to the fields to continue working on the farm, but when he hung up the phone, he looked inside his house.

Although it’s not a mess, it hasn’t been cleaned very well...

He remembered that Yun Wu dressed neatly every day, which showed that she liked to be tidy.

Xu Xingzhou touched his neat head with some difficulty.

"so troublesome……"

He said so, but the next second he had put the shovel back in his hand.

Then he began to diligently clean the kitchen and toilets inside and outside.

But Yun Wu here didn't know this. As soon as she returned, she quickly hid the shopping bag in her closet.

I was really embarrassed to let Yun Qingshan and Tong Hui see what was inside.

While Tong Hui was cooking, Yun Wu went over to help. The firewood was burning under the stove, and the smell of smoke was a bit choking.

"Cough cough..."

Yun Wu helped Tong Hui burn firewood while coughing. She was in poor health and had been coughing since she was a child when she smelled the strong smoke.

"Your brother will come to help me later. Xiao Wu, please go back and rest quickly. The newly made smoke window is not open yet, and the smoke is too strong."

"It's okay, sister-in-law, cough... I'll learn to cook more from my sister-in-law, and I can do something after I get married."

Yun Wu coughed a few times, and some tears appeared in her bright eyes. She used to help with the work at her aunt's house, and she was quite skilled at making fires.

But before, her health was worse than now. She was afraid of cold and heat. Sometimes she would feel dizzy when running faster. She is much better now. The smell of smoke in the kitchen is just a bit choking. She just needs to bear with it and it will be fine. .

Every household in the village is like this these days. Although not all housework falls on one person, everyone in the family must contribute.

Tong Xiaoyun was not in a good mood. He had just returned from shopping in the city and his mood had not improved. Now he was waiting for Jiang Cheng in the hidden woods next to the Educated Youth Courtyard.

She was in a bad mood because she heard from Tong Fuguo that Tong Hui was now starting a snack business in the city, and it seemed to be going well.

The second reason is because I heard that Xu Xingzhou’s betrothal gift to Yun Wu was considered a generous gift even if it was given to the city.

One is the real daughter of the village chief who she fears most will take away her current prosperous life, and the other is a person who looks like she hates the most.

Seeing the two of them living well, this made Tong Xiaoyun feel very uncomfortable.

"Xiaoyun, you're finally here!"

Jiang Cheng, who had just followed the people in the brigade to do farm work in the fields, came over and looked very dark.

"When I was doing farm work today, I saw a very pretty little girl. I heard someone said her name was Yun or something like Wu..."

"Yun Wu..."

Tong Xiaoyun said with a frown. She quickly looked around, fearing that someone would be following Jiang Cheng when he came to look for her.

"She is my brother-in-law's sister, the one I originally said I would introduce to you."

"That's great, Xiaoyun, please help me build a bridge!"

"I've already received bride price from other men, so why should I build a bridge when I'm about to get married?"

Tong Xiaoyun glanced at Jiang Cheng and said, her words also had a strong sour taste.

Although her ambition was to marry the son of a high-ranking official in the city, Yun Wu wanted to marry Xu Xingzhou, who was good-looking and honest in his work. She quite liked him, but it was a pity that his status was too low.

"Well, then, how can that be done! Didn't you agree to introduce me to my partner?"

Jiang Cheng became a little anxious when he heard this. How could the person he liked accept a betrothal gift from others.

"Everywhere is enlightened now. You can regret your marriage even after accepting a betrothal gift. You can marry freely. Xiaoyun, please help me explain it. When the time comes, I will return to the city to introduce you to a partner!"

Tong Xiaoyun was a little shaken. She looked up at Jiang Cheng. He had a bad reputation in the city before going to the countryside. It was said that he would hit women when his partners were in a bad mood.

Tong Xiaoyun would never marry him. She originally wanted to bring him and Tong Hui together, but failed.

Marrying a person like this would only mean hardship, so she thought about disturbing Yun Wu and Xu Xingzhou and introduced her to Jiang Cheng.

Tong Xiaoyun was mainly thinking about Xu Xingzhou, who owned a military jeep. When Tong Fuguo was the village chief, he had to tighten his belt and buy an old and dilapidated car to drive.

But Xu Xingzhou's car was different, although she heard that it was given to Xu Xingzhou as a reward by the military region before, and he didn't buy it himself.

She also thought that if Xu Xingzhou could do something good in the future, she could consider dating him...
