Chapter 571: Chapter 571 Getting a Driving License

Two days later, Luo Qiao arranged for a tricycle to deliver the items listed to her eldest uncle’s house.

Auntie Song Shiya had not expected Luo Qiao to be so efficient in handling things.

Luo Qiao asked her two sister-in-laws to check the list to see if there were any problems while she went out to settle the tricycle’s fee.

Wang Lanxiang, the daughter-in-law of the eldest brother’s family, suddenly said, "Why is there a wool blanket in here?"

Song Shiya also looked over and indeed saw a jacquard wool blanket, which was clearly high-grade merchandise.

Shang Jie, the eldest son’s wife, exclaimed, "Oh my, what’s going on here? We didn’t have a blanket on our list, did we?"

Luo Qiao came back in and, hearing them discuss the wool blanket, said, "The wool blanket is a dowry gift for Sister Jialin from me."

Song Shiya felt somewhat uneasy and said, "Qiaoqiao, you’re really generous. You’re still a child, how could Sister Jialin accept this?"

Luo Qiao replied, "Auntie, look at how pure the color is. I took a liking to it at first sight. If we take this to the wedding day, Sister Jialin would have so much face."

Song Shiya wanted to say more, but then she heard Luo Qiao add, "This is my heartfelt gift, Auntie. You really can’t refuse it."

Song Shiya also really liked the wool blanket and thus said, "Then Auntie thanks you. When you get married, let your Sister Jialin add a big gift for you."

The wedding day quickly arrived, and when the members of the Zheng family who came to pick up the bride saw the dowry, they all envied Zheng Zhiyuan for his good fortune.

Although the bicycle was not brand new, it had only been ridden for a bit over a year, so it was practically as good as new; along with the sewing machine and radio, the bride’s wristwatch that could chime three times with one twist completed the set.

Looking at the other items: two silk-covered quilts, one jacquard wool blanket, two hot water bottles, four pillowcases, two bedsheets, four sets of clothing, and two enamel washbasins with toiletries inside.

The Zheng family came with six bicycles to pick up the bride, with big red flowers tied to all the handlebars, and the party that set out to escort the bride also had six bicycles and eight people, except for Luo Siyan, who was serving in the military and could not return.

The two elder brothers from the eldest family, three brothers from the second family, and the younger brother from the third family, as well as the youngest uncle and aunt from the third family.

Standing in the crowd, Luo Qiao watched the lively scene in the courtyard. Although she hadn’t spent much time with her cousin, the moment her cousin was carried out of the gate, Luo Qiao’s eyes still reddened, and she felt very uncomfortable.

Time passed day by day, and soon it was the mid-term exam for the semester. Luo Qiao took leave from driving school to go back to Ji City for the exams. After the exams, she didn’t rush back to Capital City but ran around for half a month, selling all the goods from her storage space.

Having sold all the goods, she felt relieved and returned to focus on her studies of driving. Now, Master Liang had already started teaching her car maintenance. Every day was spent disassembling, assembling, and familiarizing herself with every single part.

Before she knew it, a month passed, and she had completed all theoretical and practical learning, passing the assessments.

The next step was to learn to drive, and Luo Qiao, with her foundation, could already drive a big vehicle quite smoothly after half a month, with no problems navigating various obstacles.

So, two days before the end-of-term exams, Luo Qiao successfully obtained her driver’s license.

The driving book of the eighties had a bright red cover with Tiananmen printed on it, and below read "People’s Republic of China Motor Vehicle Driver’s License." Inside was pasted a one-inch black-and-white photo, then filled with personal information and the date of issuance, topped with the stamps of the supervisory authority and the issuing office, and that was it.

Having received her license that night, Luo Qiao caught the evening train back to Ji City. The day after she finished her exams, Luo Qiao unexpectedly encountered Qiao Yu.

Luo Qiao had intended to take a ride back to Qingshan Village to see Black Bean and Stepping Snow, but instead ran into Qiao Yu at the station, where she saw him being pulled by the arm by a woman who was non-stop explaining something.

Luo Qiao’s first reaction was to wonder if this might be Lv Fangfang, whom Song Wenbin had mentioned.

Indeed, it wasn’t long before a hurried Song Wenbin arrived. From a slight distance, Luo Qiao couldn’t hear clearly what Song Wenbin was saying, but it was obvious he was quite agitated.

The gossip in Luo Qiao’s heart was ignited instantly, and she carefully moved to a mailbox not far from them.
