Chapter 271: Chapter 271: Days Felt Like Years

From the second day on, Lu Yichen and Stone started coming over to eat with Luo Qiao again. She had already gotten used to it before, so Luo Qiao didn’t find it troublesome.

It was only after asking that she found out Lu Yichen’s place was a five-minute walk from hers, just across the street in an alleyway. It wasn’t far, but the only downside was the big road in between.

Luo Qiao cautioned Stone to be careful when crossing the road. She only relaxed when she realized there weren’t many cars on the road, mostly bicycles.

By the end of the week, she was pretty much familiar with everyone in class. Luo Qiao was good at studying, looked good, and didn’t stir up trouble in class, which made her quite popular among her peers.

But her popularity made someone unhappy. There was a girl in class named Yan Jiajia who was quite pretty and had decent grades. Seeing how popular Luo Qiao was made her feel constantly uncomfortable.

One day after school, Luo Qiao saw Cousin Jiang Shan at her house and ran over with a smile. "Cousin, how come you have time to drop by today?"

Jiang Shan replied with a smile, "Your brother-in-law managed to get some shrimp, and I came over to bring you guys some."

Yan Jiajia said with a smile, "Ah, I love shrimp the most. Thank you, Cousin, brother-in-law is really capable."

Jiang Shan smiled, "I knew you liked it, that’s why I specially made the trip. How is school going, are you getting used to it?"

Yan Jiajia nodded, "It’s alright. We’ve only been taking classes for a week, and so far I don’t feel it’s difficult."

Jiang Shan patted Yan Jiajia on the shoulder, "You’ve got to study hard. Our family is counting on you. None of us have been to university, and now that you have such a good opportunity, you’ve got to make us proud."

Yan Jiajia pouted, "You’re putting so much pressure on me when you say that."

Jiang Shan stood up with a smile, "You’ve always had good grades. If you work hard, you’ll definitely get into a good university. Someday, we’ll all make you a new outfit, and you’ll go to university in style."

After finishing her words, Jiang Shan called out to the kitchen, "Auntie, I’ll head back now if there’s nothing else. My grandma is waiting for me."

From the kitchen, Yan Jiajia’s mom Zhang Yanwen came out with a bag, "Take these Sichuan peppercorns back with you. Your second aunt sent quite a lot over the other day. They’re fresh from this year, and grandma loves this flavor."

Jiang Shan smiled, "My grandma will definitely love it, thank you, Auntie."

Zhang Yanwen looked at Jiang Shan, "Why are you being so formal with me? By the way, when are you and Xiang Dong planning to handle your matter? It has been delayed for so long. What did the Ding Family say?"

Jiang Shan’s expression became a bit unnatural, "Xiang Dong mentioned waiting until after his grandma’s seventieth day passed. But Auntie Ding said at the very least we should wait until the first anniversary. I’m not in a hurry, a later date is fine."

Zhang Yanwen looked at her niece, "Shan Shan, once something is settled, you need to act fast. Xiang Dong’s brother is also seeing someone. Their family is in good condition, but there aren’t many rooms in that courtyard.

Whoever gets married first will have the priority to choose. I’m not trying to interfere with your relationship with Xiang Dong, but Xiang Dong’s brother is quite irresponsible. I heard he took his girl to stay in a hotel.

I’m worried that if something happens to that girl, the Ding Family might have to let them marry first. Then, it’s tough to say whether the room in the courtyard will be reserved for you guys. Just be more vigilant."

After hearing what her aunt said, Jiang Shan’s face turned sour. She had heard about this a few days ago but hadn’t taken it seriously. But if something really happened, the Ding Family would certainly have to arrange the wedding for Xiang Dong’s brother to save face.

Thinking about the Ding Family’s courtyard, besides the room they now lived in which could be considered suitable for a bridal chamber, there was only one other room on the west side without a window. It hardly got any sunlight in the afternoon.

If they had to get married in that western room, it would be utterly unacceptable. She thought to herself that they would have to figure out a way to get married before the younger brother did.

In Capital City, Luo Haotian had once again visited that teahouse and stayed for over an hour.

Gao Suhua’s days in prison were truly like years. Besides labor, she had to undergo reeducation. What she couldn’t stand most was being beaten and scolded by her cellmates every day without daring to complain to the guards.
