The longed-for village system

Chapter 507 Preparing to Head to XJ
As expected, Chen Qing declined.

It's not that he doesn't have time. He still has a few more chances to leave the village, especially with the two extended leave periods he was recently awarded. If he uses them consecutively, he can complete the recording of a whole season.

It would be a waste for him to use it like that, but of course, he wouldn't be affected by the fact that there are now basic treatment drugs available for patients in the hospital. Even if he leaves for ten days or half a month, he won't have any problems.

The root cause is that he doesn't lack money and doesn't want to leave the village. Little Snowball isn't cute, and he doesn't sleep well with his wife at home.

Life moved at a leisurely pace. That evening, Chen Qing lay in bed watching the projector screen. Zhao Xiaogu was lying on her left, and Ya Ya was lying on her right. Little Snowball was having a relatively easy time at night with the nanny and the others.

"Brother Chen, the Water Splashing Festival is over, and the weather here is getting hot. Why don't we go on a family trip? I haven't been out and about in a long time."

Zhao Xiaogu has been holding back for a while now. Although Manyuan is very lively now, she rarely leaves the house because of safety concerns and to avoid unnecessary trouble. She basically just walks around the Mushroom House and the villa area. She really wants to go out and have some fun now.

"It's time for Brother Chen to leave the village to see his friends and take a trip to relax."

The number of times he leaves the village is just like the savings in his bank account; if he goes out even slightly more, he'll have to spend it all. It's just one trip out of the village, after all, he's gotten someone's daughter pregnant, but it wouldn't be right for him not to go and see her and express his feelings.

"Okay, do you two have any plans?"

The two women were taken aback when Chen Qing agreed so readily. It turned out that all their previous discussions had been in vain. They thought it would take some effort and some tricks to persuade Chen Qing to leave the village!

"We can do whatever you say."

They just wanted to leave the village and have some fun. They hadn't even thought about where to go. Their minds were focused on persuading Chen Qing to leave the village. Besides, it didn't really matter where they went. The main thing was that the whole family could be together.

"Then let's go to XJ! We've tricked someone's daughter, so we have to give them an explanation. We'll also go see what the grasslands are really like."

Whether in his past or present life, Chen Qing had never seen or experienced the charm of the grasslands. After all, the so-called grasslands in the south were like lakes and seas compared to the real Inner Mongolian and Xinjiang grasslands.

"Ah! I'm going to see my parents!"

Ya Ya's face was filled with excitement and happiness. She was an extremely easily satisfied woman. She had also thought about asking Chen Qing to come home with her to meet her parents. After all, their marriage still needed to be approved and blessed by their parents, especially now that she was pregnant.

But she was worried that bringing it up would bother Chen Qing, since this man rarely left the village unless there was a specific reason, and she was very busy right now.

"Yeah! I tricked my father-in-law and mother-in-law's precious child and even got her pregnant. If I don't go over there soon, they might come and chop me up with a knife!"

"No way! My parents love you very much, and they told me to take good care of you and not let you cause any trouble."

Ya Ya leaned on Chen Qing's shoulder and acted coquettishly, perfectly embodying her feminine side.

Although she hasn't been back to her hometown during this time, they still occasionally talk on the phone or video chat. After all, communication is so convenient these days, so Yaya's parents still know the details.

Knowing that their daughter was pregnant and dating Chen Qing, they had intended to visit her, but various reasons kept delaying it. Of course, they were genuinely satisfied with Chen Qing as their son-in-law, especially after learning that the country tacitly approved of Chen Qing's polygamy; their only worry and concern were now gone.

So what Ya Ya just said is completely true. Those words were indeed specially instructed by her parents. After all, in their minds, Chen Qing is a national-level figure who is going to do great things, and their daughter, as his woman, should assist him well.

"Then check the airfares for the next couple of days and see when there are any tickets available, then we'll set off."

"Great!" Zhao Xiaogu cheered, picked up her phone, opened the ticketing website, and immediately bought a ticket to fly to Yili, Xinjiang the day after tomorrow morning.

It's not easy for women to travel far, especially for a new mother and a pregnant woman. The two of them completely lost interest in watching the movie and got up to pack their bags.

Of course, Zhao Xiaogu didn't forget to send the ticket information to their group chat, telling all the girls that they were going to XJ the day after tomorrow.

The women in this group all have feelings for Chen Qing. It's a sisterhood group that Zhao Xiaogu created. Besides her and Ya Ya, there are also Liu Shishi, Xiao Ju, and Qin Qin. This is their private group chat.

They're probably all busy with their schedules! Zhao Xiaogu's message didn't receive a reply from anyone else.

Liu Shishi, Xiao Ju, and Qinqin, looking exhausted after finishing their trip in the early hours of the morning, boarded a van and headed to the hotel. Of course, the first thing they did was take out their personal phones to check for calls or messages.

When they saw the photos and screenshots posted by Zhao Xiaogu in the group, they all sat up straight and typed questions.

"Is Brother Chen leaving the village? He's going to XJ to see the grasslands? Is that true?"

"Damn it! I still have to continue filming, I can't leave."

"Me too. The crew is rushing to meet the deadline and I can't leave. I feel upset and want to cry."

Qinqin and Xiaoju both posted crying face emojis in the group chat. What a rare opportunity! Unfortunately, they couldn't take time off work to go out and have fun together.

Liu Shishi smiled knowingly as she read the chat, silently giving herself a thumbs up for her plan. The opportunity had arrived!
She had already planned her schedule for this year at the end of last year. In order to increase the time she spent with Chen Qing and establish their relationship as soon as possible, she did not take on any TV dramas or long-term events this year, and basically only took three or four days at a time.

Her original plan was to finish her trip today, go back to the hotel to rest, and fly to the Mushroom House tomorrow to stay for a few days. Now it seems she can change her flight and fly directly to XJ tomorrow to wait for them to come and meet her.

"My schedule is finished today and I have a few days off. I'll fly to XJ tomorrow and wait for you guys to come over."

Xiao Ju and Qinqin were already upset, but seeing Liu Shishi's reply made them even more upset. At this rate, Third Sister would be taken by Liu Shishi. At this moment, they regretted taking on this TV series.

Of course, as good friends, they still sent their sincere blessings to Liu Shishi, as this was also their wish.

"Shishi, you'd better work hard and not miss this great opportunity. I hope you'll be a young married woman when you come back."

"Blue sky, white clouds, and vast grasslands—it's so romantic just thinking about it! Go, Senior Sister, push Little Chen away! Hey, hey!"
