The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

Living in this era, even though Yun Hao detested Xu Wenwan, he knew that once they were married, getting a divorce wouldn’t be easy.

After a moment of silence, he finally spoke slowly.

”You’re right. Maybe I really was too extreme. Hu Ziqiang, I’d like to be alone for a while.”

Hearing this, Hu Ziqiang didn’t say anything more. He stood up, silently patted Yun Hao’s shoulder, and returned to his room.

「The next morning.」

The educated youths were all busy with their own tasks. As Yun Hao finished packing his things, he suddenly spoke up.

”Since everyone is here, I have something to announce.”

”I’ve already gone to the village chief’s house to propose marriage, and the wedding date has been set. It’s a bit of a rush, though, and there’s still a lot to prepare. If you all have time, could you help me tidy up a bit? I’ll treat everyone to wedding candy when the time comes.”

Everyone was dumbfounded.

They hadn’t heard a whisper about Yun Hao proposing. Now, hearing this news so suddenly, they were all having trouble processing it.

Someone even gasped out loud.

”You’re getting married? When did this happen? How come I haven’t heard anything about it?”

Yun Hao explained with a smile.

”I proposed the day before yesterday. Because it was so rushed, I was afraid the village chief wouldn’t agree, so I didn’t say anything. But thankfully, it was successful, so I’m telling everyone now.”

As everyone came back to their senses, they found the whole thing incredibly strange.

On the surface, however, they all started teasing him with smiles.

”Yun Hao, look at you! You sure know how to make a splash.”

”Getting married just like that—that’s really fast. Don’t you worry, we’re all from the same dormitory. We guarantee we’ll get the courtyard cleaned up for you.”

Someone else asked about the housing situation. Yun Hao explained to everyone that renting a house to get married was a normal thing to do at the educated youth station.

Some educated youths even moved in directly with the woman’s family. Being able to rent a house meant your family was relatively well-off. As for building a house, there was only one family in the entire Qingshan Team who had done that.

”So, what day is your wedding set for?”

”Three days from now. The tenth of this month.”

Three days?

That’s way too rushed.

Although rural weddings were simple and didn’t require many preparations, three days was definitely a rush to move and prepare a wedding banquet.

The people at the educated youth station exchanged glances, then quickly offered their congratulations.

They knew about Yun Hao and Xu Wenwan’s relationship. They figured Yun Hao must be so impatient to marry her that he was in this much of a hurry.

These people were all genuinely congratulating Yun Hao.

Xu Wenwan used to visit Yun Hao at the educated youth station often, and their relationship looked very good.

Now that Yun Hao’s proposal was successful, this could be considered a happy ending for the lovers.

Bitterness and frustration welled up inside Yun Hao, yet he had no way to release it.

Gu Jiaojiao didn’t know about Yun Hao and Xu Wenwan’s situation; she was preoccupied with her own troubles.

She had been eating meat every day for the past few days and was getting tired of it. She wanted to eat some fresh vegetables.

But there were no fresh vegetables in winter. Gu Jiaojiao rested her chin on the windowsill, looking listless and melancholic.

Seeing she was unhappy, Leng Yuan recalled Chen JianShe coming to find him yesterday to go fishing.

Originally, Chen JianShe had wanted to go hunting, but Leng Yuan had refused. It was cold now, making animals hard to hunt, and it was rough on people too. It just wasn’t worth it.

So Chen JianShe suggested fishing instead, but Leng Yuan had still refused.

They had run out of fish at home for some time. He felt his little wife had also gotten tired of eating it, so he had no interest in fishing.

Now, seeing Gu Jiaojiao’s bored expression, Leng Yuan couldn’t help but suggest, ”Do you want to go fishing?”

Gu Jiaojiao’s previously listless face immediately lit up.

”Can we?”

The last time she went to catch fish with Chen Erniu, they ran into that incident with Sweet Girl and didn’t end up catching any. She hadn’t been back to the river since. Now that Leng Yuan brought it up, Gu Jiaojiao felt her heart stir with excitement.

Leng Yuan looked at his little woman’s shining eyes, ruffled her hair, and said gently, ”Let’s go!”
