1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 911 always thinks what she thinks and is anxious about what she's anxious about.

Guo Yan'er was quite generous and poised. She walked over with a smile and said, "Hello, Uncle and Aunt. You must be tired after your long journey. Please come in and rest for a while."

Aunt Xiao looked at the speaker. He was fairly good-looking, and it was a miracle that he hadn't gotten tanned after being in the countryside for so long. However, his appearance was not very appealing. But her son liked him, and he was pregnant. What could a mother like her do? "You must be Yan'er. Wanli has already told the family."

Guo Yan'er blushed when she heard this. She knew that Xiao Wanli had told his family about her pregnancy: "Uncle, Aunt, it's cold outside. Let's go inside and talk."

With the help of the people from the educated youth compound, the things on the oxcart were quickly moved into the house, almost filling half the room. Not only the villagers, but also the people at the educated youth settlement were extremely envious.

As soon as Guo Yan'er entered the room, she poured herself some malted milk powder that she had been reluctant to drink. Xiao Wanli, being very perceptive, quickly went over to help bring it over: "Mom and Dad, drink it while it's hot to get rid of the cold."

Aunt Xiao wanted to ask her son what had happened, but with her daughter-in-law there, she was too embarrassed to speak.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, she simply took out the betrothal gifts she had brought: "Yan'er, I don't know if Wanli told you, but the betrothal gifts for all the brothers are the same: two hundred yuan in cash, plus one of the three major items. However, we came in a hurry this time and haven't gotten the tickets yet. Which one do you want? We'll leave the money here and find the tickets when we get back and send them to you."

They had already sent the tickets to the fourth son's wife's family. When they left, they brought the bedding and some daily necessities prepared by their family. They couldn't possibly go back to the Duan family to ask for tickets again, even if they were beaten up.

Guo Yan'er felt a little embarrassed, so she looked at Xiao Wanli.

Xiao Wanli smiled at her: "This was agreed upon by the family beforehand. Just do as you wish. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Guo Yan'er was conflicted. Logically, she should ask for a bicycle ticket, which would be the most practical thing for them to do when they went out. However, she liked sewing and secretly wanted a sewing machine. She didn't know what to choose. Seeing her like this, Xiao Wanli understood what she was thinking: "Mom and Dad, I've made the decision. We want a sewing machine. Once you get the tickets when you return to Beijing, send them to us."

Upon hearing this, Guo Yan'er suddenly looked at him: "You..."

Xiao Wanli laughed: "We don't go out all the time. If we leave a bicycle here, we probably won't use it many times. It would just benefit others. It would be nice to lend it to people if they need it. Don't you think so?"
Having a sewing machine would be different. Maybe you could take on some freelance work and earn some extra money. Then I might even be able to live a comfortable life too.

Guo Yan'er was very moved. That being said, what man doesn't like cars? Her heart was burning with excitement: perhaps marrying Xiao Wanli would be a good choice. This man has been very considerate since he was with her. He always thinks what she thinks and is anxious about what she is anxious about.

She looked up and nodded slightly: "Then I'll listen to Wanli."

Seeing the interaction between the two, the Xiao couple felt much more at ease: "Alright, then you can keep the betrothal gifts and the money for the sewing machine for now. We'll send them to you as soon as we get the sewing machine tickets."

Guo Yan'er smiled shyly when she saw Xiao Wanli nod at her, and took the money: "I'll take the money. Thank you for coming all this way."

Aunt Xiao smiled and replied, "Your wedding is such a big event, you have to come even if it's hard work, so you won't have any regrets later."
