Educated Youth placement.
Jing Ran entered the Educated Youth courtyard with a smile on her face.
Seeing her expression, Jing Ze felt reassured and yet approached her.
"Ranran, what did the Lin Family say?" he asked expectantly.
"I explained the situation and said that once Tangtang gets back, they’ll discuss the matter." Jing Ran, not wanting to worry her older brother, quickly explained without even taking a sip of water.
Upon hearing this, Jing Ze did not relax but instead felt his heart become heavy with worry.
He began pacing back and forth in the courtyard, clearly fraught with anxiety.
"That’s how they responded, huh!"
"I don’t know what Tangtang will think..."
He walked to and fro, his heart pounded erratically, and he was a bundle of nerves.
Jing Ran pulled Jing Ze to sit down and rolled her eyes at him.
"Stop pacing, Brother. If you keep it up, I’ll get dizzy. It was hard enough convincing myself to stay calm, and now you’re making me nervous again. You’re really annoying!"
She was one of the parties involved, after all, waiting for Tangtang’s verdict.
She was more nervous than anyone!
Jing Ze tugged on Jing Ran’s braids and asked, "I can’t control myself. How did you convince yourself just now?"
"What else could I do to convince myself? I thought, if Tangtang doesn’t want to meet Dad, I’ll beg her. Even if she hates me for it, I’ll still beg her. As long as Dad doesn’t live with regret, whatever happens to me is fine..." Jing Ran said earnestly.
Jing Ze felt as if something had pricked his heart.
After a long silence, he reached out and ruffled his little sister’s hair.
"Don’t say foolish things. If it comes to that, I’ll go myself. You and Tangtang are both my sisters, and it pains me to see either of you upset. There’s always a solution to these things."
He was confident Tangtang wasn’t a heartless person.
Jing Ran met her brother’s sympathetic gaze, and her heart warmed.
"I’ll listen to you, Brother."
Thinking of their father, who was still unaware of the situation, Jing Ze’s expression turned somber as he said, "Let’s wait for the news from the Lin Family first. If all goes well, we’ll go back to Jin City with Tangtang tonight..."
If not, just the two siblings would return to Jin City.
The letter of introduction had been prepared in advance at the Brigade Department, now only waiting for Lin Tang’s decision.
-
In the county, the Gu Family.
In the dead of winter, Gu Yingzhou had somehow procured several branches of red plum blossoms to give to his newlywed wife.
Receiving this gift, Lin Tang’s eyes brimmed with smiles.
"What made you think to bring me flowers?" she asked with a playful laugh.
As she spoke, she leaned down to smell the fragrance of the flowers, and the girl, with smiling lips, seemed even lovelier than the carefully plucked red plums.
Gu Yingzhou wrapped his arms around Lin Tang’s waist and rested his chin on her shoulder, his voice deep as he said, "I thought you’d like it, so I brought it."
Lin Tang knew that at such times, she should compliment him, as it encouraged men to keep coming up with surprises.
She tiptoed and gave Gu Yingzhou’s face a kiss, her voice sweet and soft, "I really like it, thank you."
Gu Yingzhou said nothing, turned his face to the side and lightly tapped the other cheek that she had not kissed with his long fingers.
Understanding his hint, Lin Tang reluctantly placed a kiss on his other cheek as well.
To prevent him from continuing to pester, she also gave a quick kiss to his lips.
"Is that better now? Why are you so childish?"
With Gu Yingzhou holding her to his side, he returned several kisses and laughed, "Didn’t you say that men are boys till death?"
"...Yes, I did," Lin Tang acknowledged, a bit helplessly, "Of all things, that’s what you remember clearly."
Gu Yingzhou said, "I remember every word you say very clearly."
His embrace was warm, carrying the crisp scent of plum blossoms. Lin Tang really liked it, so she snuggled into his arms and didn’t want to move.
She idly played with the red plum in her hand, looking content and at ease.
A soft happiness radiated from the corners of her eyes and brows.
"You’re getting better at sweet-talking."
Gu Yingzhou was momentarily speechless.
Not being sweet-talking wasn’t an option.
After all, it was Madame Ruan behind the scenes, setting pitfalls for her son and giving Tangtang all sorts of bad advice, preventing him from sharing a bed. It was simply too much.
"It can be even more pleasant to the ear, so can you stop listening to Ms. Ruan’s nonsense?"
He really didn’t need coaching!
On some matters, such as surprises and romance, he was a natural.
Lin Tang couldn’t help but laugh when she heard the grievance in her husband’s voice.
It took her a good while to stop.
In the end, she was practically out of breath.
Gu Yingzhou, worried that his wife might laugh herself into a fit, gently patted her back.
"Take it easy, remember to breathe, be careful not to run out of breath."
Lin Tang finally managed to stop laughing and said, "That aggrieved tone of yours is just too funny, why haven’t I noticed before that you have a bit of a comic’s traits? It’s so entertaining."
Gu Yingzhou’s face showed helplessness, but his eyes were filled with deep affection.
He reached out to gently pinch his wife’s nose and wrapped his other arm around her to pull her into his embrace.
"You, ah!"
Seeing that it was getting late, he urged, "Are we going back to the brigade or not?"
"Going back!" Lin Tang responded promptly.
They had already agreed on it.
"Wait for me to arrange the flowers first."
As she spoke, she inserted the plum blossoms she was holding into a vase.
Gu Yingzhou went back to the bedroom and brought out the coat and scarf that Lin Tang was going to wear.
"Come here and get dressed."
Lin Tang clapped her hands and walked over, stretching out her arms habitually. With his help, she put on her coat.
Then she had her scarf and hat put on as well.
Afterwards, the couple left home.
They chatted and laughed all the way back to Shuangshan Brigade.
As they reached the entrance of the village, they saw several people shoving a frail man toward the brigade.
The snow from last night still hadn’t melted away.
Those people were struggling to walk in the snow, one step deep and the next shallow.
From a distance, they could hear someone cursing and swearing.
"Damn it, I must have been extremely unlucky to get involved in this mess. In the dead of winter, wouldn’t it be nicer to crawl under a blanket or eat a roasted sweet potato? You criminals are truly despicable, ending up in such a plight—you must have done something terrible to deserve this..."
Gu Yingzhou, having heard these words, frowned slightly, yet he said nothing.
There were too many injustices in the world for him to intervene in!
Lin Tang didn’t plan on meddling either until...
[Ding! Host, please rescue the target Chu Yue and successfully become his disciple to earn five thousand points.]
The system, which had been silent for a while, suddenly popped up with a message.
"Tongzi, did you successfully upgrade?" Lin Tang asked in her mind.
The system’s voice sounded somewhat elated.
[Yes, thank you for the help, Host. It’s the system’s good fortune to have the most beautiful, clever, and kind Host helping—it’s so blessed~!]
The cutesy voice that came out the next second made goosebumps break out all over Lin Tang’s body.
She awkwardly twitched her mouth and said in her mind, "Darling, you can speak without the sing-song tone!"
What kind of nonsensical knowledge had this unfortunate system picked up now?
The system either didn’t notice Lin Tang’s disgust or chose to ignore it and continued in a very innocent voice:
[But doesn’t Host think that my way of speaking is very cute and adorable? I really like it~]
Lin Tang’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
Not cute or adorable at all, actually quite creepy.
It made one have the urge to dismantle something.
Unable to bear it any longer, she didn’t want to exchange another word with the delirious Tongzi and directly turned off the system notification sound.
The certain system was once again confined to the little black room.
As they were about to pass those people ahead, Lin Tang reached out and tugged on Gu Yingzhou’s coat.
