lled with meat and a bowl of meat congee. After eating, her stomach was full.At that time, the steamed buns at the state-owned hotel were full of meaty aroma. They didn't have the flavor of farmed pi...Ning Yuan thought she wouldn't sleep well, but that night, she slept soundly until natural awakening.
Not until the sunlight streamed through the leaky roof and fell into her eyes did she stir, rolling over and opening her eyes groggily.
The next moment, she saw the empty bed beside her, with only a neatly folded thin blanket.
Rong Zhaonan, who was sleeping on the edge, is gone.
Ning Yuan woke up suddenly. She instinctively sat up and looked at herself.
Well, I'm fine, no problem.
She rubbed her round face, "Oh well, what am I thinking about"
Okay, she believed Rong Zhaonan was a righteous and honorable person. Besides, Mr. Rong really was like that.
He came from a distinguished family, and besides, in this era, gangsterism is punishable by death.
But it was too late when she realized later that some men may appear to be gentlemen, but are actually "hypocritical" and "beasts in fine clothing".
Ning Yuan got out of bed, but she found that Rong Zhao Nan wasn't in the cattle shed either. She had no idea where he went early this morning.
"Strange..." she muttered, beginning to tidy herself and her room.
Ning Yuan is a person who loves cleanliness very much. When she lived in the village as a sent-down youth, she basically took charge of most of the housework.
After tidying up, she took out the cookies again for breakfast.
Ning Yuan wasn't sure if Rong Zhaonan had eaten breakfast. She herself had eaten a few pieces for breakfast and left four or five biscuits on the table for Rong Zhaonan.
I finished a package of these everlasting biscuits over two days, and there's not much left.
Ning Yuan didn't feel bad at all. Good things should be used on herself and those who deserve them, better than feeding someone like Tang Zhenzhen.
As soon as she collected her materials and went out, she saw Rong Zhaonan carrying a basket of grass down the path.
He was still wearing black-rimmed glasses and a patched, loose worker's outfit. His handsome face was mostly obscured.
One look at each other and he nodded. "Did you wake up"
Ning Yuan felt a little awkward, so she coughed lightly: "Ahem, Doctor Rong... well, Zhao... Zhao Nan, you're up quite early."
Although it was awkward enough to make her toes curl, she now had to get used to calling him by his name so intimately.
Thinking ahead a few years, the name of this big shot wouldn't be something anyone could casually call out. She felt a sense of unreality, a floating feeling.
Hearing her stutter his name, Rong Zhaonan asked nonchalantly, "Have you had breakfast Are you leaving"
Ning Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, didn't we say yesterday that we would go to the county to get our marriage license today Hua Zi will take your place. The village squad has already prepared the introduction letter and documents."
Nowadays, getting a marriage certificate is just a casual thing.
Rong Zhaonan pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, and as if casually asked, "When will you be back"
Maybe she met her contact outside the village, in the county town
Ning Yuan shook her head. "Not sure, maybe just pick up some things on the way back"
Rong Zhao Nan raised an eyebrow. "With the ill-gotten gains you acquired yesterday"
Ning Yuan let out a light hum. "That's right, I'll use the ill-gotten gains I got yesterday to buy things. We are husband and wife, so if I used the ill-gotten gains, it's as if you used them too!"
As she spoke, she flicked her braid and turned away.
Perhaps having lived again, her mindset had become much younger. She was quick to retort and unwilling to overthink things like she used to in her past life, always cautious and careful.
Looking at Ning Yuan's slender and graceful back, Rong Zhaonan fell silent, his eyes cold and dark.
What about... husband and wife
He never expected that he would suddenly have another little spy as his wife.
... "interesting" in this otherwise bleak and silent life.
......
Ning Yuan went straight to the village head's house and knocked on the door as agreed.
Someone answered in the yard.
In a moment, Lao Zhibush led out a man around thirty years old with a simple and honest face: "Hua Zi, you drive the tractor to take the Ning Zhiqing to the county town to haul pesticides. Be careful on the road."
Hua Zi is the tractor driver in the village. The old Party Secretary still trusts his son to handle things.
Hua Zi nodded honestly: "Father, you can rest assured, I will get things done."
Isn't it just about applying pesticides and conveniently helping the educated youths get their marriage certificates
Ning Yuan smiled and said, "Hua Zi ge, you've worked hard."
Hua Zi saw Ning Yuan's smiling eyes and felt that this girl was pretty good. How could she be marrying Rong Zhao Nan, who was sent down to work in the cattle shed
But he was an introvert and didn't like to talk idly, so he just nodded: "It's nothing, I'll go start the tractor."
Huazi was pulling Ningyuan as they drove a tractor "vroom vroom" to the county town. The villagers looked at them with some bewilderment, but didn't ask too much.
Ning Yuan sat on the tractor, surrounded by the beautiful scenery of a late autumn garden on both sides of the road.
Early autumn in the south isn't cold, the green mountains and waters remain, a warm wind carries the scent of the fields.
The air is humid and gentle.
The wind blew away the dust of past troubles that had weighed heavily on Ning Yuan's heart. She realized once again with clarity—
Everything is real, it's so good to be reborn!
Listening to the tractor chugging forward, she closed her eyes, letting the wind blow against her face. She smiled faintly, with a hint of melancholy.
After more than an hour, when they arrived in the county town, Hua Zi remembered his father's instructions and took Ning Yuan to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get their marriage license first.
The older sister, who was in charge, took a sip from her enamel mug and looked at the complete documents. She glanced sideways at Ningyuan and Huazi: "What are your names"
This was Ning Yuan's first time doing something this deceptive. She subconsciously tightened her grip on her green canvas bag: "Ning Yuan."
Hua Zi also said dryly, "Rong... Rong... Zhaonan."
After examining the ID card, the clerk realized that this "Rong Zhaonan" with a rustic air was actually a demoted official from Beijing.
She instantly frowned in disdain and slammed her hand on the table: "You, a down-to-the-country youth, didn't properly transform your thoughts, how can you still date someone from the educated youth movement This is unacceptable!"
Huazi started to sweat, panicking: "...."
I don't know either!
Ning Yuan caught sight of the poster on the wall and had a flash of inspiration.
She suddenly crossed her arms on her waist and put the other hand on her chest, saying righteously:
As a response to the call, as a knowledge youth supporting the construction of vast rural areas, I must naturally set an example and actively guide the younger comrades who have been sent down to positively transform their thinking! This is contributing bricks and mortar to the construction of our country. Is there anything wrong with that
Sister Clerk: "Well then, you're still quite good."
Huazi: "...." Yeah, it sounds like a pretty good person.
Ning Yuan pressed both hands on the table, leaning half her body forward, staring straight at her older sister as if she were about to report her for every wrong word.
“This is my response to the call, selflessly dedicating myself to reforming backward elements. Don't you think this spirit of sacrifice and devotion is commendable!”
The clerk suddenly felt a chill run down her spine under the girl's intense stare.
Ah... can self-sacrifice still be used this wayng Yuan said this, they also realized something was wrong and immediately became a little awkward: "This...this..."This matter, if you say it lightly, is them acting on their own accord. If you say it...
