Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Su Wanqing packed quite a lot of things, with her luggage alone filling seventeen or eighteen large bags—clothes and diapers for the children, her own change of clothes and medicine box, a bunch of miscellaneous daily necessities, and most importantly, the property deed and keys, which she needed to take over the property in the capital.

She also packed several bags of food and gifts, since she was going to visit Ding Xiaomei's mother-in-law. Of course, most of it was for her own consumption; since there were many people, she brought a little more than usual... just enough to ensure everyone could have three meals a day.

Since the inspection team was large, she specially packed several large bags full of fried meatballs and other food, thinking that she should at least consume a hundred or two hundred pounds of them this time, so that the more than nine thousand pounds of fried meatballs in the space would be reduced a little.

Of course, this was only what was on the surface; she brought some with her, so that she could take out even more secretly.

Fortunately, having a lot of luggage wasn't a problem at this point. Everyone carried a bag, each wanting to carry a couple more items to show they were useful. There was a car waiting at the door, and the group loaded it in a lively but relatively orderly manner.

However, just as they were about to leave, Zhou's mother arrived with Lin Tingting and Gu Yuan, dragging several suitcases with them.

Zhou's mother cried, "Big brother, Yanshen, how could you be so heartless? You went out to play and even took a plane, why didn't you tell me? If Tingting hadn't come to find me, I wouldn't have known about this..."

When Uncle Ding saw Lin Tingting supporting his younger sister, he was so angry that his face turned black. He glared at Lin Tingting fiercely, knowing that she had secretly gone to see Zhou's mother at noon.

He immediately began to reprimand you: "I told you a few days ago that we were having a housewarming party today, and it's the Lantern Festival, but you wouldn't come. Now your daughter-in-law has important business to attend to, and you've come to cause trouble! Where were you before? Now you're adding people at the last minute, aren't you just causing trouble for her? Alright, you can all just stay here!"

Zhou Yanshen said calmly, "What my uncle says is true. If you want to go to the capital for a visit, Mother, you can take the train yourself."

Upon hearing that her own elder brother and son were going to abandon her, Zhou's mother immediately burst into tears: "Wanqing, Yanshen, elder brother, you're going to fly off to have fun and forget about me having to take the train? How heartless you are! Aren't I family too? You let outsiders go but won't let me go..."

Su Wanqing narrowed her eyes. Naturally, she didn't want Lin Tingting and Zhou's mother to go. Their presence would be bothersome and an eyesore. However, by directly preventing her mother-in-law from going in public, she would appear powerful, but in the end, she would be branded as disrespectful to her elders.

She cherishes her reputation and won't tolerate such unpleasant words spreading.

Just then, the General Secretary, seeing this, and unaware of the intricacies involved, assumed it was a family member of Comrade Su Wanqing and eagerly chimed in:

"Oh, no trouble at all. It's just a few more people, but there are plenty of seats. It's not a problem at all. If you want to go, you can just get on the bus and go together."

He was just begging them not to waste any more time.

Su Wanqing: "..." She glanced at Secretary Zhou, who was eager to take credit for what she had done, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

"In that case, I'll trouble Secretary Zhou. Let's set off immediately," Su Wanqing nodded and said.

Although Secretary Zhou said at the beginning that Old Master Sun's condition would only last a few more months, she wasn't in a hurry since there was no life-or-death crisis, but the other side seemed to be in a real hurry, so it would be better to set off as soon as possible.

Uncle Ding gave Zhou's mother a hard tap on the head: "You're coming with me this time. Don't cause any trouble, and don't bother Wanqing. She's going there on important business. We're just taking advantage of the opportunity to visit the capital. If you cause her any trouble, see how I deal with you."

Zhou's mother wiped away her tears in an instant, as if she hadn't cried at all, and even rolled her eyes: "Alright, alright, I know, let's go! I heard there are original soundtracks and Qiong Yao's new book over there, I want to go and take a look."

The group arrived at the airport and parked on a closed tarmac.

Airports at that time were much simpler than those in later times. The terminal building was low, and there were only a few rows of tin benches in the waiting area. Announcements were playing on a loop from loudspeakers, the sound hoarse and distant.

In those days, airports were not open to the general public; one needed a letter of introduction and a special pass to enter, and there were very few people there on weekdays.

Secretary Zhou had made arrangements in advance, and the entire tarmac was empty except for their group.

The area was surrounded by a high iron fence, with a few dim lights illuminating the concrete ground, and the private jet parked in the distance.

Everyone stared at the enormous machine with curiosity.

Qin Xue tilted her head back and said, "This is an airplane? It's so big and beautiful! We'll ride in this to fly?"

"I heard that it takes one or two days to get to the capital by train, but only a little over an hour by plane?"

A group of people walked in chattering. Wang Ling was carried on a stretcher, surrounded by doctors and nurses, so no extra help was needed.

As the general secretary walked, he instructed, "Comrade Su Wanqing, everything is arranged here. The entire crew has been cleared as you requested. You can tour the parameters on your own. We'll wait for you outside. Once you've finished looking around, we'll take off and arrive in a little over an hour."

Su Wanqing looked around and saw that it was a closed area with no one around. She nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, everyone, wait for me for ten minutes."

Most people were used to Su Wanqing studying data on her own.

As she walked alone toward the plane, Lin Tingting whispered to Zhou's mother:

"Auntie, look at Su Wanqing. So many people are waiting for her. The organization said she can name her own terms, but instead of something practical, she insists on researching airplanes. What a waste of time!"

Zhou's mother was comfortably leaning back in her chair, Gu Yuan massaging her shoulders. Hearing her niece's words, she glanced at Uncle Ding, who was playing with the three little ones in the distance. Seeing that he wasn't paying attention, she whispered a reply:

"Tingting, don't talk nonsense. Why do you care what she does? So what if she's wasting time? I don't care if she wants to fly to the sky. Anyway, she's arranged all the food and lodging. We can just relax and enjoy ourselves. If there's good food, we'll eat it. If there's no food, we'll take it. Why do we care about her? I advise you to know your place. Grab whatever you can get. Don't always be watching what others are doing."

Lin Tingting bit her lip. Her aunt had changed. Last year, her aunt still called Su Wanqing a peasant, saying that she married Zhou Yanshen just to serve his whole family. But now…

"Activate radar, scan the surrounding one-kilometer radius for cameras and recording equipment, and block all signals!"

[Scan complete, consuming 100 precious gold!]

Instantly, a map of the surrounding area appeared in Su Wanqing's mind. Great, there were indeed few people and nothing unusual. From her position, no one could see her.

Su Wanqing gently raised her hand and pointed to the modified aircraft, which was several tens of meters long, in front of her: "Stop!"

In the blink of an eye, the massive plane vanished without a trace, leaving not a speck of dust in its wake.

"Golden Elixir, tenfold return!"
