Her shout drew the nearby villagers over.
Even though there was a lot of wedding candy prepared, they didn’t dare to grab handfuls, since there were too many people.
Someone asked, "Chu Zhiqing, what does your husband do?"
Yunyi didn’t answer in detail, only saying, "He works in the county."
Someone else enviously remarked, "Chu Zhiqing, you’re really lucky."
With that comment, people began discussing carefully: "It’s true, fellow educated youth went to the countryside but Doctor Chu had medical skills, so she didn’t suffer much. Right from the start, she worked at the village clinic and later went to Hua’an Farm Reclamation, where she even received a salary."
"You’re behind on the news, she’s long since left Hua’an Farm Reclamation."
"Oh, no longer at Hua’an, then where did she go?"
"I heard she went to work in the county."
"See, it’s different when you have skills."
It was when the old Branch Secretary Yang Gengtian, who had heard the news, came over that she was finally saved from the crowd of villagers.
On the way to the village brigade office, she delivered wedding candy to several families she had good relations with before.
Just as they were nearing the brigade office, they ran into Aunt Guihua who had hurried over upon hearing the news, exchanging pleasantries.
Zhao Guihua looked at Huo Jingrui and said, "Chu Zhiqing is a good girl, young man, you must cherish her in the future."
Huo Jingrui smiled lightly and said, "She is my wife, I will naturally protect her, spoil her, and cherish her."
Aunt Guihua beamed with joy at his words: "Good, good, good, Chu Zhiqing has been good to my family, I truly hope she lives happily."
She handed over some wedding candy before they parted.
After chatting with several village officials for a while, she stood up and said, "It’s late, I still need to go to the Zhiqing Point, so I’ll be on my way now."
If she didn’t leave, it would soon be lunchtime, and she didn’t want to trouble others.
Just as she left the brigade office, Aunt Guihua’s little grandson ran over: "Chu Zhiqing, my grandma asked me to tell you to come over for lunch."
Yunyi petted the little boy’s head and grabbed some candies from the batch for the Zhiqing Point: "Thank you for running this errand, here’s some candy for you."
The little boy felt a bit shy, but Yunyi just placed the candy in his hand: "But I won’t be coming for lunch; we have other things to do and will be heading straight out. Please thank your grandma for me."
Hearing Yunyi’s words, the little boy turned and ran home.
Yunyi shook her head with a smile before she proceeded to the Zhiqing Point with Huo Jingrui.
As for the Zhiqing Point yard, at this time only Geng Erhong, Cheng Hongjun, and Liu Chenglin were there; the others, encouraged by Bai Suli, had gone together to Hua’an Farm Reclamation.
Geng Erhong was puzzled when she heard a knock on the door; the villagers didn’t like these educated youths, so few ever came by: "Who is it?"
Yunyi recognized the familiar voice, "Erhong, it’s me, Yunyi."
Geng Erhong didn’t expect the person they had just been discussing to show up, so she hurriedly ran over: "Yunyi, it really is you! We were just talking about you."
Yunyi paused for a moment, and then understood when she thought of meeting Xiao Liuyin on the bus.
Geng Erhong approached, finally noticing Huo Jingrui behind her: "Is this your partner?"
Yunyi linked arms with him and walked into the yard: "I’m married."
Geng Erhong stopped directly: "Since when?"
After hearing Yunyi’s words, she felt a bit upset; Bai Suli had been mocking her earlier.
Yunyi hadn’t informed Geng Erhong for her own reasons.
Geng Erhong’s family didn’t have any support and she relied on her own work to survive. Besides, she was going back to Beijing soon, and who knows if they would meet again, so she didn’t want to impose any expenses on her.
