The fake heiress from the 1970s was kicked out at the beginning, but became a village girl and was p

Ling Wenchen can answer this question.

However, he secretly glanced at the dumbfounded person, his eyes narrowing slightly with a smile.

"Master, we would like to get our marriage certificate, but we need to submit a marriage certificate first. We can only get the certificate after it's approved."

Jiang Yuyan grinned.

As a result, he was proven wrong the very next second.

"actually--"

Ling Wenchen cautiously interjected, immediately drawing two pairs of eyes to stare at him.

"Actually, I had already submitted my marriage application before I came here, and the division commander had already approved it."

In other words, they can officially get their marriage certificate now.

Jiang Yuyan narrowed her eyes.

"When did you submit your marriage certificate? How come I didn't know?"

Ling Wenchen became anxious.

"Yan'er, didn't I talk to you about this last time? I didn't submit it secretly beforehand."

He was afraid that this matter would cause Jiang Yuyan to misunderstand again, which would be a great injustice to him.

The scene from back then flashed through her mind instantly, and Jiang Yuyan's face turned somewhat embarrassed.

"Indeed, it seems like someone mentioned this to me—cough cough."

Faced with her master's suspicious gaze, Jiang Yuyan dared not say no.

Old Qi was speechless. "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and resolve this matter!"

After saying that, he glanced at his apprentice's belly without making a sound, telling her to pay attention and that the sooner they got their marriage certificate, the better for her.

Jiang Yuyan received a warning look from her master and stuck out her tongue slightly.

She hasn't forgotten, she just really wants to take it slow.

She didn't know when it started, but whenever she thought about getting a marriage certificate or getting married, she felt a slight resistance and fear in her heart.

She didn't think there was anything to be afraid of in this kind of thing, but she still felt uncomfortable.

Seeing Ling Wenchen standing there dumbfounded, Jiang Yuyan glared at him irritably.

"What are you still standing here for? Aren't you going to get your marriage certificate? Aren't you going back to prepare the documents? Or are you saying you don't want to anymore?"

The last sentence was a little joke she made with a smile.

Ling Wenchen immediately snapped back to his senses and subconsciously shook his head.

"I'm not unwilling, I'm very willing. I'll go back and get my documents now, but—"

He glanced at her cautiously. "Yan'er, are you truly willing?"

He had sensed her resistance before, but she didn't seem to dislike his approach, which was already a good progress for him.

If possible, he hoped to wait until she was willing.

Judging from his expression, Jiang Yuyan knew he was overthinking things again.

I couldn't resist pinching his handsome face; it was hard and didn't feel good to the touch.

"Hmph, if I really don't want to, no one can force me, understand?"

Ling Wenchen instantly understood her meaning, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up. "I understand."

"Then why aren't you leaving yet?"

There's no need to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a certificate at the border; instead, the relevant work at the Civil Affairs Bureau is handled by the street-level staff.

A street typically governs an area within a radius of ten kilometers. In the sparsely populated border region, sometimes the street office has to go door-to-door to register residents before the work can progress.

just,

There is a street management office near the South District base, which is about a half-hour drive away.

after an hour,

Jiang Yuyan and Ling Wenchen came out of the street management office with two newly issued marriage certificates in their hands.

She looked at the marriage certificate with curiosity and found it quite novel.

Before he could even take a second look, Ling Wenchen reached out and took the marriage certificate from her hand, carefully putting it away.

"I'll keep the marriage certificate. From now on, you're in charge of our household. As for keeping the marriage certificate here, cough cough, I can put it in a better place."

Jiang Yuyan: "..."

What's the difference between this explanation and no explanation?

Seeing how nervous he was, as if he was afraid she would snatch the marriage certificate at any moment, I couldn't bear to look.

"Alright, you can leave it there. I really don't have a better place to store it anyway."

This was Jiang Yuyan's first time visiting a place like the border, which resembled both a small town and a small city, and seemed to have a much larger population than a village.

"Let's go shopping, and buy some wedding candy so we can share the joy with everyone when we get back, what do you say?"

Ling Wenchen has no problem with it.

He would agree to anything she asked for as long as she didn't ask for a marriage certificate.

The two arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative. The space was small and the goods were few. Compared with big cities, there were at least half as many items.

They mainly sell practical items for people living in the border areas.

Face towels, used to protect the face from wind and sand, are larger and longer than ordinary face towels, come in a variety of styles, and are cheaper than those sold outside.

Jiang Yuyan thought they looked good too, so she bought one pink one and one blue one, intending to use them for her child.

Take it back and have my third brother modify it a bit, and it becomes a little bib for a child.

She wanted to buy another pound of hard candy and half a pound of soft candy. She also wanted to buy White Rabbit milk candy, but they didn't sell it here.

She thinks hard candy tastes better, which is what the candy maker prefers.

It seems they all bought it, but no one asked Ling Wenchen what he liked to eat.

Jiang Yuyan subconsciously nudged the person next to her with a package, and whispered in his ear,

"What do you like to eat? It's rare for us to be out today, so buy whatever you like before you go back."

It's so difficult to get out here.

Ling Wenchen didn't feign politeness. Instead, he glanced at the pancakes and pointed to the large flatbread not far away, saying...

"I like wedding cakes. I heard that wedding cakes are an essential item for newlyweds here, symbolizing a long and happy marriage and a lifetime of love."

Jiang Yuyan thought the meaning was good, "Then let's buy it, let's buy one more."

One wedding cake is as big as a large basin; it's definitely not enough for two people to finish in one meal.

She bought an extra one so that the chef could also taste it.

After buying most of the items, they prepared to return to the base.

As the car approached the base gate, it saw a line of military vehicles coming out.

When the lead driver saw their car, he quickly opened the door and ran over.

Jiang Yuyan also knew that person; he was Ling Wenchen's communications officer, and he was responsible for informing Ling Wenchen about almost everything, big or small.

He's rushing over here in such a panic, something must have happened.

really--

"Deputy Commander, something's happened. A highly contagious virus has also appeared in our East District base. I heard that several villages have been affected. The Commander called and told us to go back immediately."

Ling Wenchen told him to calm down first before stopping the vehicle.

"Go and tell the division commander about the situation in the eastern district, and hope that the group of people from the health clinics who went to support the villages before can be sent."

"yes!"

"I'm going to find the dean, and while I'm at it, I'll ask the regimental commander if they've uncovered anything suspicious. We'll take action once I get back."

Ling Wenchen handed the items to Jiang Yuyan, but before he could explain, Jiang Yuyan interrupted him.

"Go quickly. I know what the situation is. I won't blame you, and I won't think you're bad enough to abandon me."

"I know that marrying you will be a frequent issue for me, but as I've told you before, I like to be home alone and do whatever I want without any constraints."

"So, I might feel more comfortable when you're not home," Jiang Yuyan said with a slight smile.

Ling Wenchen knew, of course, that she was trying to comfort him and ease his anxiety. He took a deep breath and stroked her hair.

He gave her a deep look, then turned and quickly jogged away.

Watching his departing figure, Jiang Yuyan's initially happy mood turned slightly disappointed.

However, her disappointment quickly vanished, and she picked up her bag and happily headed back to her dormitory.

On the way, she was still thinking that if an infectious disease had broken out in the East District, it meant that the group of people had also been to the East District.

Does this mean that the group of people may not have left the border area yet?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuyan changed her pace from walking to jogging and quickly ran to Master Qi's dormitory.

"master--"

"I have something to tell you—"

Without thinking, she pushed open the door, only to find a room full of people staring straight at her, which instantly made her scalp tingle.

"Ahem, Master, you have guests? I'll come back later—"

Old Qi called out to her, saying irritably, "Why are you leaving? You know everyone here. What's the matter? They've come to see me anyway."
