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

Did you receive the letter we sent before Chapter 914?

After the meal, Guo Yan'er prepared to return to the room where the female educated youth lived.

After all, I'm getting married tomorrow, so I can't stay up too late tonight so I can be a beautiful bride tomorrow.

Aunt Xiao took out a box of Beijing delicacies and a bag of mixed candies from her package: "Yan'er, take these with you and share them with your fellow educated youth in your room. It's a token of our appreciation."

Guo Yan'er was deeply moved. It seemed that Xiao Wanli took after his mother, being so thoughtful: "Thank you, Auntie."

Aunt Xiao didn't care about her title, after all, the wedding banquet hadn't been held yet.

But Xiao Wanli spoke up: "Yan'er, we've already registered our marriage, so you have to call Mom and Dad now."

At that moment, Uncle Xiao slapped his son and said with a laugh, "What do you know? Stop meddling. Go with Yan'er's idea. You can change your mind tomorrow."

Guo Yan'er was a little shy as she accepted the Beijing Eight Delicacies and candy: "Then I'll head back first, you all should get some rest too."

After saying that, he glared at Xiao Wanli and hurriedly left the room.

As soon as she entered the room, the female educated youths surrounded her: "Yan'er, what are you carrying in your hand?"

Guo Yan'er smiled broadly: "My mother-in-law brought some Beijing specialties for us to share with you; it's a small token of their appreciation."

"Oh my, your in-laws really went to great lengths to bring this all the way here. Please thank them properly for us later."

“Our Yan’er is so lucky. Just look at the packages Wanli’s parents brought, and you can tell how much they value you.”

Guo Yan'er didn't offer any opinion, but simply smiled and opened the Beijing delicacies and candy: "Come on, everyone, you've all helped me a lot before, consider this a thank-you gift prepared by my mother-in-law, please have a taste." After being in the countryside for so long, at first her family would send her money, tickets, and things, but as time went on, they mostly just sent letters of greeting. These Beijing delicacies looked high-class, how could anyone resist such a treat?

After tasting it, they were all overjoyed: "It truly lives up to its reputation as a pastry from a big city; the taste is really good."

The female educated youths were eating heartily, and laughter could be heard from inside the room from time to time, which made the male educated youths across the room extremely envious. They all seemed to be busy with their own things, but in their hearts they were all thinking: Why hasn't Xiao Wanli come back yet?

Meanwhile, Xiao Wanli, whom they were thinking about, was listening to his mother say, "Wanli, did you receive the letter we sent before?"

Xiao Wanli then remembered the letter he had received a few days ago: "Mom, this time my younger brother and sister-in-law have really been wronged. Yan'er and I will remember this kindness, and we will do our best to help them in any way we can in the future."

"Yan'er's pregnancy couldn't be delayed any longer, otherwise I, as her older brother, wouldn't have been so shameless. Besides, I genuinely didn't know Lao Si was getting married before I made the call; it was just a coincidence that everything happened at once."

Aunt Xiao nodded: "It's true that our family has wronged your fourth brother's wife. She's a good girl. Although it was difficult for her, she still agreed. Most of the things we brought today were borrowed from your fourth brother's wedding room. The reason we postponed their wedding to the second half of next year is because we need to save up for the wedding. In addition, your cousin is probably getting married around May Day. There has to be a gap of about 100 days in between, otherwise we couldn't have postponed it so much."

Xiao Wanli then remembered his second uncle's matter: "By the way, how did my second uncle find him?"

Uncle Xiao perked up and vividly recounted the whole story: "By the way, when we came, your second uncle even sent you a red envelope."

As he spoke, he nudged his wife beside him: "Remember to give your daughter-in-law the red envelopes that those families sent tomorrow."

Aunt Xiao smiled broadly: "Don't worry, I won't forget."
