Traveling through the Great Northern Wilderness and marrying the most beautiful educated youth.
Chapter 6 Rice is plentiful
Hearing her make her conditions, Su Qingyun knew that there was hope for this!
"What is it? Tell me!"
Lin Wanqiu didn't dare to look him in the eye and turned her head slightly away.
The autumn wind rustled through the reeds.
She gripped the hem of her old clothes tightly with both hands, her knuckles turning white, and her voice was very soft.
"I'm not strong enough to earn work points, do you mind?"
This question was heartbreaking, and it also revealed her deep-seated inferiority complex.
In Xiangyang Village, all the cultural knowledge she had learned before became worthless.
He can't carry anything on his shoulders or lift anything with his hands; even the simplest task of weeding is a beat slower than others.
The brigade accountant recorded work points. Others earned eight a day, but she earned at most four, which wasn't even enough to cover her food rations.
In this era where people relied entirely on work points for food, she was essentially a useless person.
She had heard enough of the gossip in the village. The older women pointed and whispered behind her back, saying she was all show and no substance.
Which family would want to marry a freeloader?
After hearing this, Su Qingyun smiled without hesitation.
Suddenly, Su Qingyun straightened his back and patted his chest forcefully.
Two muffled thuds, each exuding a strong masculine energy.
"You're weak, but I'm strong enough to take care of you."
His tone was both assertive and natural, without the slightest hint of reluctance.
Lin Wanqiu suddenly raised her head, her eyes filled with astonishment.
She looked at the tall man in front of her.
Those words sounded very comforting and instantly touched her heart.
For the past six months, she has endured countless scornful looks and ridicule, and has become accustomed to constant sarcasm and mockery.
No one has ever said to her, "I'll support you."
A tremendous sense of security enveloped her, giving her a touch of warmth.
She gritted her teeth and put forward a second condition.
"I...I like reading, singing, and dancing."
As she said this, her eyes dimmed.
In those days, these hobbies were all criticized as bourgeois sentimentality.
She was recently reported and punished for keeping a foreign novel for herself.
This label weighed heavily on her, making it hard for her to breathe. Even her fellow educated youth avoided her, afraid of getting involved.
She still wants to keep this hobby and doesn't want to become a mere tool for work just to get married.
If Su Qingyun thinks her thinking is outdated and wants to criticize her, then let's just let it go.
Su Qingyun looked at her trembling shoulders with even more tenderness.
He lowered his voice and responded indulgently.
"Late Autumn, I can accept that! After we get married, I'll find a way to get you some books." Whether others like it or not doesn't matter, I like it! You can just stay home and sing and dance for me, do whatever makes you comfortable."
Lin Wanqiu's eyes instantly reddened.
Tears welled up in my eyes; I was so moved I wanted to cry.
She had expected to be scolded, lectured, or even be called shameless.
Unexpectedly, I met someone who truly understood me.
Not only did he not mind, he was also willing to support her dangerous hobbies.
Lin Wanqiu took a deep breath and looked at Su Qingyun.
She was about to make her most fatal third condition.
This is also the fundamental reason why she has never dared to hope for marriage.
"I come from a bad family."
Her voice trembled, and tears finally streamed down her face.
"My father is a reactionary intellectual. He is currently working in the countryside in Inner Mongolia. His fate is unknown."
"If you marry me, it will definitely implicate you."
"If I have the chance in the future, I would like to visit my father."
At the time, this was a huge bombshell; whoever touched it was doomed.
Anyone who gets involved with this substance will bring shame upon three generations of their family, and may even cause their relatives to be criticized and persecuted.
Lin Wanqiu bit her lip tightly, waiting for Su Qingyun to back down.
She was even prepared to be rejected, after all, no one wants to joke about their future.
Su Qingyun's smile faded, and her expression became serious.
He looked into Lin Wanqiu's eyes and made his promise, word by word.
"Of all virtues, filial piety is paramount. How can you be afraid of being implicated? After we're married, aren't your parents my parents too? I will definitely be filial to them and support you visiting them!"
Su Qingyun was a time traveler, and he was all too aware of the future trends.
Soon, the times will change, the college entrance examination will be reinstated, and those who were wronged will be exonerated.
Lin Wanqiu's father will not only not be a burden, but will also regain his status and return to a high position in the future.
These words carried immense weight in Lin Wanqiu's ears.
She completely let her guard down.
A blush rose to her cheeks, and she lowered her head shyly.
"I...I agree to marry you."
The voice was soft, but incredibly firm.
Su Qingyun thought to himself, "Holy crap!" A surge of joy welled up inside him.
Having lived two lives, I'm finally going to have a beautiful wife!
He excitedly took a step forward and reached out to take Lin Wanqiu's hand.
Lin Wanqiu was startled and quickly shrank back.
She hurriedly hid her hands behind her back, her face burning red.
"No...we haven't registered our marriage yet, it wouldn't be good if someone saw us."
Su Qingyun was taken aback, then burst into laughter.
Girls these days are so adorably conservative.
"Gurgle..."
Just then, a discordant sound rang out.
Lin Wanqiu's stomach rumbled loudly, the sound particularly clear on the meadow.
She was immediately plunged into extreme embarrassment and shame.
She clutched her stomach tightly with both hands, her face turning even redder.
"Why are you so hungry?" Su Qingyun frowned. "How long has it been since you last ate?"
"From...from yesterday noon until now..."
Lin Wanqiu lowered her head, her voice filled with grievance.
I haven't eaten for almost 24 hours!
Su Qingyun felt a pang of pain in her heart as she looked at her thin body.
He waved his hand domineeringly.
"No way! Since you've agreed to marry me, how can I let my future wife go hungry?"
Lin Wanqiu blushed so much that his neck turned red when he heard the word "wife".
Su Qingyun turned around, using the act of walking to the ground to pick up her clothes as cover.
With his back to Lin Wanqiu, he instantly sent his thoughts into his personal space.
The rice that was cooked last night still smelled delicious in the room.
Quickly use your mind to shape the rice in the pot into a rice ball.
This is produced from super rice; it's crystal clear, soft, glutinous, and sweet.
When she turned around, she had a white rice ball in her hand.
He strode back to Lin Wanqiu and handed it over directly.
Here, eat quickly.
Lin Wanqiu took it instinctively.
A rich aroma of rice wafted over.
She stared wide-eyed in disbelief, almost screaming out in surprise.
"This...this is a white rice ball?!"
In this era when every household ate coarse food and couldn't even get enough cornmeal to eat.
Fine white rice, that's a delicacy you can't even see during the New Year!
Even the village chief, Liu Baoguo, wouldn't just casually produce a rice ball made from pure white rice!
Lin Wanqiu stared at Su Qingyun in disbelief and shock.
"Where...where did you get this?"
Faced with this situation, Su Qingyun remained calm and composed.
He had already come up with an excuse.
"I got lucky a couple of days ago and caught a roe deer in the mountains."
"I secretly took it to the market along the riverbank and traded it for some fine grains."
"I was originally planning to save it for the Lunar New Year, but today is a good day to help you recover."
Lin Wanqiu believed this statement without a doubt.
There is indeed a black market at the riverside market, where people occasionally exchange wild game for food.
Yet he gave himself such precious grains without hesitation.
She was both embarrassed and embarrassed by Su Qingyun calling her "wife" repeatedly.
I was moved to tears again.
Seeing her touched expression, Su Qingyun secretly felt smug. Although the roe deer meat was quite delicious, this wife was definitely more endearing. He thought to himself, "If you knew I ate three huge pots of rice last night, wouldn't you be shocked?"
Lin Wanqiu swallowed hard and carefully held the rice ball.
She was so hungry that she took a small bite.
The soft, sweet taste burst in her mouth instantly, even more fragrant than the premium rice she had eaten in the city before!
As I chewed, tears welled up in my eyes again.
Half of it was because it was so delicious, and the other half was because of how good Su Qingyun was to her.
She couldn't bear to finish it all, so she tried to break the rice ball apart with both hands.
"This is such a precious thing, I'll eat half, and you eat the other half."
Lin Wanqiu handed the half that had been broken off to Su Qingyun.
Su Qingyun felt a warmth in her heart.
This wife was well taken care of; even starving like this, she was still thinking of him.
Without saying a word, he forcefully shoved the other half back into her hand.
"Just eat what I'm offered, I'm not hungry. Oh my god, why are you being so polite with me?"
Seeing that Lin Wanqiu was about to decline, Su Qingyun moved his hands extremely quickly.
He reached behind him and pulled out another white rice ball of the same size.
It waved in front of Lin Wanqiu.
"From now on, follow me, and I'll make sure you eat your fill of rice." Su Qingyun smiled confidently.
