As soon as the snow melted on the back mountain, more and more people started going there. Wen Li saw that Jiang Chen and Jiang Yue'er had started searching for treasure on the back mountain again, and Guo Caixia and Zhang Mazi also went to the back mountain whenever they had time.

It's safe to say that the back mountain is quite lively right now. Wen Li has been working diligently lately and hasn't gone to join in the fun. Let them take their time to find it!

They won't find anything anyway!

She was happy to be free from these people bothering her.

Since Jiang Yue'er and Jiang Chen started dating openly, Qi Yang was completely out of the picture. He became quite dejected and his eyes were full of hostility towards Jiang Chen. The two had several clashes at the educated youth compound and almost came to blows.

Every time Wen Li heard the arguing, she would grab a handful of melon seeds and watch the commotion. Qi Yang felt ashamed, thinking that he had scolded Wen Li because of Jiang Yue'er before.

However, Jiang Yue'er was his savior, so the fault couldn't lie with her. It could only be that shameless Jiang Chen had bewitched Jiang Yue'er.

Wen Li shook her head. Everyone says that a life-saving grace should be repaid with one's body! In her opinion, that's just lust at first sight. If the girl who saved Qi Yang was ugly, she didn't believe Qi Yang would even think about repaying her with his body. He would probably avoid her like the plague!

When Lu Zechuan returned, he saw Wen Li watching the show again, so he took it upon himself to deal with the two pheasants.

"We caught two pheasants. What do you want to eat tonight?"

"Let's have the spicy chicken, I want it spicy!"

"Okay, I'll cook it and bring it to you later. Don't cook!"

"Uh-huh!"

Recently, Lu Zechuan has been bringing back any prey he catches, cooking it himself, and then sending it to Wen Li. Their relationship is not yet established, and Lu Zechuan hasn't made it public for the sake of her reputation. However, several of their close friends know that Lu Zechuan is pursuing Wen Li.

Lu Zechuan's pursuit was very simple. Every morning before going to work, he would prepare water for her and hot water for washing up.

At noon, she would prepare lunch and deliver it to Wen Li's room. After work, she would go to the back mountain to collect firewood for Wen Li. When she came back, she would cook again. It could be said that Wen Li now only had to work and did nothing else when she got home. She was being taken care of comfortably.

Lu Zechuan's thoughtfulness prompted Chen Yan to exclaim repeatedly, "Lu, the educated youth, is so considerate!"

Wen Li nodded. "Your Qi Jun is pretty good too!"

Chen Yan's ears turned red, and she glared at Wen Li. "We're talking about Lu Zhiqing, why are you talking about Qi Jun?"

"You two have been together for so long, how come you're still so easily embarrassed?"

"Hehe! We're planning to get our marriage certificate in a few days!"

"That's great! Should we set up two tables then?"

"Yes, yes, we've discussed it. We'll invite everyone from the educated youth compound to have a meal together, and we'll also invite the brigade leader and the village chief to come and witness it!"

"That's how it should be. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Yes, could you please help me check out the things I'll need for the wedding?"

"No problem, leave it to me!"

Wen Li was genuinely happy for Chen Yan. In her past life, Chen Yan had offended Jiang Yue'er and suffered a tragic end. Qi Jun died without ever getting the marriage certificate with her. Now, however, Chen Yan had resolved her inner conflict, and the two were about to get married, which could be considered a happy ending.

Once spring plowing was over, the village wasn't so busy anymore. After choosing a good date, Chen Yan and Qi Jun took three days off to prepare for their wedding banquet.

Wen Li took over the task of buying meat. Nowadays, wedding banquets are very simple. Basically, two or three meat dishes are considered quite impressive. Chen Yan and Qi Jun are both well-off, so they are not careless about the wedding banquet.

Wen Li went to the black market to find Gu Huai and asked him to save a few pounds of pork and a few fish for her!

As for the chickens and ducks, Wen Li took them out of her spatial storage. She had plenty of chickens and ducks in her space, so she didn't need to buy any more.

Although Qi Jun's family was not present, they still sent money and tickets to purchase things.

Qi Jun bought all the necessary items in one go, including the "three turns and one sound" (referring to a set of three-turn appliances and a set of four-turn appliances). As for the seventy-two legs, the educated youth compound was too small to fit them all, so he converted the money into cash and gave it to Chen Yan to buy things for herself.

In the village, the most expensive thing a wedding could afford was a bicycle. Chen Yan and Qi Jun's wedding was the first of its kind, especially with a radio, a rare item that no one in the village had ever seen before. For a while, many people came to watch the spectacle.

People are in high spirits when they have a happy occasion, and Qi Jun has been beaming with joy these past few days. Time flies, and the day of their wedding has arrived.

Wen Li cut out several "double happiness" characters from red paper and pasted them on Chen Yan's window. She and Li Xiangxiang then decorated the room for her. Nowadays, getting married is just about having a meal together, then holding the Little Red Book and reciting vows in front of Chairman Mao's portrait. That completes the ceremony.

Since both of them were sent-down youth, Qi Jun rode his bicycle around the village with Chen Yan on the back, while Su Hao and Deng Wei scattered wedding candies behind them so that everyone could share in the joy.

The ceremony was then complete. Qi Jun specially invited Zeng Zhiqing to be the head chef, and everyone enjoyed a lively meal before the simple wedding came to an end.

The two are now husband and wife. Qi Jun's room is used as a storage room and kitchen, while they live in Chen Yan's room.

Wen Li had been busy all day and didn't want to disturb the young couple, so she went back to her room to rest early.

She had only been lying down for a short while when she heard faint noises coming from next door. She cursed under her breath and went straight into her spatial dimension. The soundproofing in this house was really not good. It seemed that she would have to live in her spatial dimension for a long time from now on.

The next day, as soon as Wen Li stepped out the door, she saw Qi Jun, who was beaming, and Chen Yan, who was holding her waist and looked exhausted, walking out. The two looked at each other, and before Wen Li could even feel embarrassed, Chen Yan's face turned completely red.

"Little Pear, we're going to the commune. Is there anything I can bring you?"

Wen Li gave Chen Yan a meaningful look, "No need, I don't need anything now, you guys go ahead!" Then she laughed and ran off, "Hahahaha—"

Chen Yan glared angrily at Wen Li's retreating figure. "Wen Li, you're not allowed to laugh!"

"Alright, alright, stop being so angry!" Qi Jun quickly pulled the man back.

"It's all your fault, I..." Chen Yan covered her face in shame and indignation as she thought of the man who had been so ruthless last night.

"Don't blame me, this room is just too poorly soundproofed!"

Qi Jun felt no embarrassment whatsoever. After all, their situation was considered relatively good. Nowadays, everyone was struggling financially, and many families had several brothers who were married yet still slept in the same room, separated only by a curtain. This kind of thing was common in the village.

Chen Yan is just shy, that's why she felt embarrassed.

"I don't care, you can forget about it tonight!"

"Okay, okay, it's my fault! Let's go, or you won't be able to get the big meat bun!"

The man, having just tasted the sweet talk, would agree with whatever Chen Yan said, since he would be in charge of everything by nightfall anyway.
