Stunning Check-in: A Carefree Life Begins in the Countryside

"These wolf carcasses and medicinal herbs are not important to me; I can exchange them for Anping Village."

Xia Jiang (An) gritted his teeth and said:

"I only need thirty catties of coarse grains, two catties of salt, and ten catties of vegetables, but I have one request."

Xie Weiguo and the other two frowned slightly, exchanged glances, and then Kong Boyue spoke:

"You said it, but if they try to forcibly take our team members away, we won't stand idly by."

Xia An shook her head slightly, glanced at Yang Yanqiu again, and a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes.

"I like her, and I respect her wishes. I won't make things difficult for her."

As he spoke, he looked at Xie Weiguo and the other two with a serious expression.

"My request is simple: if she ever agrees to register our marriage, please don't make things difficult for her when you issue the letter of introduction."

"If she doesn't want to leave after she gets married and wants to apply for a homestead, please make an exception for her."

Upon hearing this, Xie Weiguo and the other two looked at Xia Jiang (An) suspiciously.

"It seems you know her quite well, otherwise you wouldn't say something like that."

Xia An nodded and said with a wry smile, "I don't know if she will agree, but Xiajiatun is indeed not a very suitable place to live."

"Besides, her parents are here, so it's not practical for her to come to Xiajiatun with me."

"If she's willing, she can live here. I'm quite content that I can visit her once a year."

Xie Weiguo and the other two looked at him suspiciously, their expressions neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Xia An looked at the three men, "Uncles, can you give me a straight answer?"

As he spoke, he gritted his teeth.

"If you can grant this request, I will come and exchange this with you every year when I leave Xiajiatun."

Upon hearing this, Xie Weiguo and the other two looked tempted. Was there really such a bargain?

The three exchanged glances. Although they were still somewhat wary of Xia An, they were clearly tempted.

Although Yang Yanqiu was a sent-down villager, he is now a member of the Anping Village team and has worked diligently in the collective for the past four years.

If she gets married and separates her household registration, and wants to apply for a homestead, they might give her some leeway, but ultimately they will have to grant it to her.

It's unavoidable.

If this could bring some benefits to Anpingtun, it wouldn't be a bad thing.

Moreover, whether this kid can actually win over Yang Yanqiu is another matter entirely.

Kong Boyue laughed and said, "Although she is a person who has been sent down to the countryside, she is also a member of our Anping Village team, so I will naturally not make things difficult for her."

Xia An's face lit up with joy, and he quickly bowed slightly, cupping his hands in thanks.

Thank you!

"These things are yours now, how can you give them back to me?"

"I'll take you to get it," Kong Boyue said with a smile, then beckoned five or six young men over.

"Let's carry our things and head back first."

"Okay!"

Several people nodded.

Xia An followed them, carrying a basket on his back. When they passed the area where Yang Yanqiu was,

He looked at Kong Boyue, "May I speak with her for a few minutes?"

"Yes!" Kong Boyue nodded, "but be careful to keep things in check."

Xia An nodded and strode towards Yang Yanqiu.

Weeding is done in designated areas, and there was no one within four or five meters of Yang Yanqiu.

As Xia An approached her, he said, "Comrade Yang, we meet again."

A hint of doubt flashed in Yang Yanqiu's eyes, but then Xia An's voice continued:

"Are you satisfied with the thing you asked me to buy the day before yesterday?"

Yang Yanqiu's eyes widened suddenly, a hint of surprise in them.

Very few people know about this; besides her mother, only Xia An knows.

Was he sent by Xia An?

She smiled and replied, "That's great, thank you."

Hearing their words, the crowd was somewhat puzzled, but they also understood.

Yang Yanqiu indeed recognized the unfamiliar young man, and their gazes all turned towards him.

far away,

Mr. and Mrs. Yang were a little worried and quickly walked over.

Xia An quickly took two steps closer, then whispered rapidly:

"Yanqiu, I've disguised myself."

"I am Xia Jiang from Xiajiatun now. I can hunt and I also have some medical skills."

"I'll explain later. For now, you just need to know that this identity is guaranteed, so it will be easier for you to explain to your aunt."

The sound was barely audible, but Yang Yanqiu heard it clearly.

A strange light flashed in her eyes, then she smiled and said:

"Comrade Xia Jiang, you haven't gone back yet?"

Xia An scratched his head and smiled, a hint of naivety and shyness on his face.

"After leaving the day before yesterday, I wandered around the mountains, hoping to get some game and medicinal herbs to exchange for some things in Anping Village."

"I just saw you and came over to say hello. I hope I didn't cause you any trouble."

Yang Yanqiu shook her head, a hint of a smile and a touch of affection flashing in her eyes.

"No, it's probably because I didn't affect you."

Xia An quickly waved his hand, looking simple-minded and a little reserved, and said:

"No, no, how could Comrade Yang possibly affect me?"

"Besides, you know me, I don't care even if it affects me."

As he spoke, he hesitated slightly.

"Comrade Yang, I'll head back now."

"I'll come back to see you in a while. Please give that matter some consideration."

After saying this, his face flushed slightly, and he turned and quickly left.

A hint of doubt flashed in Yang Yanqiu's eyes; she still didn't know what Xia An meant by those words.

What's wrong?

You didn't tell me!

Watching Xia An leave, she wanted to ask her a few more questions, but then she saw Yang Zhiming and his wife approaching.

"Yanqiu, who is that person?"

Yang Yanqiu concealed the doubt in her eyes and said somewhat embarrassedly:

"A friend of mine asked me to buy those things that night."

Yang Zhiming nodded slightly, but a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

Yang's mother frowned slightly. "What's going on? It's not Xia Shi..."

His name is Xia Jiang.

Yang Yanqiu quickly interrupted, "He is a hunter from Xiajiatun. I happened to have some contact with him and asked him to buy something for me."

Upon hearing this, Yang's mother hesitated, suppressing her doubts for the time being.

There are quite a few people here, so there's no need to keep asking. Let's wait until we get back to ask.

"Mom, get to work first," Yang Yanqiu said quickly, "I'll explain later."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and got back to work.

She needed to sort out her thoughts based on Xia An's few words and her explanation to her mother that night.

Although she didn't know how Xia An managed to disguise herself and become so much shorter, she didn't doubt Xia An's words.

Because only her mother and Xia An knew about the shopping, and only Xia An knew about the reminder that she knew hunting and medicine.

Moreover, she believed that Xia An would tell her later.

the other side,

Xia An returned to Kong Boyue's side, scratched his head and smiled, "Uncle, thank you for your trouble."

"No trouble at all!"

Kong Boyue shook his head, led him to the team headquarters, and gave him what he needed.

Xia An, carrying her things, said, "Uncle, I still don't know your name."

"Kong Boyue!"

Kong Boyue smiled and said, "Anpingtun accountant, you can come to me if you need to trade medicinal herbs in the future."

"Thank you, Uncle Job."

Xia An nodded. "I'll head back now. I might come back in a few days."

"Farewell, Uncle Job!"

As he spoke, he picked up his things and walked away quickly, his steps seeming much lighter.

Kong Boyue's eyes were deep, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
