The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

Yun Hao’s finger brushed past the letter, paused for a moment, then moved away nonchalantly as he continued to search.

There weren’t many letters to begin with, so Yun Hao quickly found his own.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw a village cadre rush in, holding a telegram.

”Brigade Leader, Gu Jiaojiao’s family sent her a telegram.”

The Brigade Leader had been working on an application, but he just couldn’t get the wording right.

He was just thinking of asking Leng Yuan for help.

Hearing there was a telegram, the Brigade Leader immediately stood up.

”Give it to me! I’ll take it over.”

As the village cadre handed over the telegram, Yun Hao inadvertently glanced at it and saw eight words.

Return home at once for your marriage. Job arranged.

The Brigade Leader took the telegram and was about to leave when Yun Hao reminded him.

”Brigade Leader, there’s also a letter for Gu Jiaojiao here.”

The Brigade Leader immediately went over, found Gu Jiaojiao’s letter, and left with both items.

The village cadre had other business and left as well.

The Brigade Leader had been working on the application for the past two days, so the village office had been kept open during the day. He always locked up when he was the last to leave, so he had just told Yun Hao to make sure the door was closed on his way out.

As for the contents of the office, anything important was already locked away, and nobody cared about what was left.

Yun Hao barely heard a word the man said; his mind was completely consumed by the eight words on the telegram.

The village cadre frowned, reminded him one more time, and then left.

Yun Hao hadn’t expected Gu Jiaojiao’s family to send a telegram urging her to come home and get married.

’This means Gu Jiaojiao never told her family she got married in the village. Doesn’t that prove she never planned on spending her life with Leng Yuan?’

At this thought, a wave of joy washed over Yun Hao. He had been wondering how he could convince Gu Jiaojiao to leave Leng Yuan.

’Now that I know Gu Jiaojiao isn’t prepared to settle down with Leng Yuan, I should have that conversation with her as soon as possible.’

’Leng Yuan is easy enough to deal with, but this business of Gu Jiaojiao going home to get married... that’s a bit trickier to handle.’

「At Village Chief Xu’s home.」

Xu Wenwan needed to buy materials to make facial soap. She had asked her mother for money, but her mother ignored her. Having woken up early for a change, she brought it up at the breakfast table.

”This facial soap I’m making is going to make a fortune in the future. If any of you want to make money with me, just invest a little. I’ll count it as you buying a share.”

Her tone was smug and arrogant, as if she were bestowing charity upon others.

The others: ...

Everyone just kept eating from their bowls, ignoring her.

Only Chen Xiaoli looked up in surprise.

”You know how to make facial soap?”

Gu Jiaojiao had given her a bar before, and she thought it worked amazingly well.

She was quite surprised that the lazy and greedy Xu Wenwan would actually know how to make facial soap.

Xu Wenwan tilted her chin up smugly.

”Of course.”

”You have no idea. This stuff sells for one yuan and twenty cents a bar out there! It’s really expensive. Just give me some money for materials, and I guarantee you’ll all make a profit.”

When Chen Xiaoli heard the price Xu Wenwan mentioned, she almost dropped her bowl.

’Good heavens!’

’One yuan and twenty cents... that’s so expensive.’

’No wonder it worked so well. Gu Jiaojiao is so generous.’

Chen Xiaoli thought about how Gu Jiaojiao had given her such an expensive gift without saying a word about the price. Her opinion of her grew even fonder.

Xu Wenwan thought Chen Xiaoli was going to invest, but when she didn’t get an answer after a long moment, she grew impatient.

”Sister-in-law, you know a good thing when you see it. You know this stuff is valuable. So, are you going to invest?”

”This is a surefire moneymaker. An opportunity like this won’t come knocking twice.”

Chen Xiaoli came back to her senses, and just as she was about to speak, someone stepped on her foot.

She looked down and saw her husband pulling his foot back.
