He thought his return to the village was the beginning of his life as a ‘pensioner’.

He planned to live alone until he died and didn’t care about anything. Even when his parents drove him out without saying a word after returning, he didn’t feel anything. It was unnecessary. Everything seemed unnecessary. He would live a good life with the money he received.

However, his comrades from the army were still worried about him. After hearing about his family affairs, they asked for leave together. They were afraid that his life was not good enough and sorted out everything, even his marriage.

Although Daniu arranged the marriage for him, Song Qinghan was thankful for what he and his army comrades did. If it weren’t for them, how would he have a family now?

“Ahem…” A cold wind blew, and Song Qinghan coughed slightly. He should’ve cold, but he was feeling warm instead.

Jiaojiao will get bored at home. He has to go back and accompany her quickly.

On the way back, a girl briskly walked past him.

But after she passed by, the girl couldn’t help but glance back.

In that moment, she saw a tall and slender young man. His facial features were attractive, his thin lips slightly hooked, and there was liveliness in his eyes. Even if he was wearing the same plain clothes as everyone else, he still looked outstanding. He would’ve looked even more stunning with paler skin. [1]

Although she only saw his broad back when she glanced back, she couldn’t help but smile.

Xi Shu has been in the brigade for some time already, so she was quite familiar with the people in the village.

She also knew that the person who had just passed by her was Song Qinghan, an unfortunate man. But his time has finally come, with reliable in-laws and a seemingly fierce but caring wife.

She also knows Su Jiaojiao. Although they didn’t speak much, they still had a decent relationship and would exchange greetings.

Thinking of this, Xi Shu sighed enviously. When would she get a boyfriend in this place?

But after thinking about it for a short while, Xi Shu continued walking. She was thinking about what she was going to do next.

It’s not very convenient to manage a business as an educated youth, but she doesn’t want to be funded by the host’s father anymore. After all, he has already had a child with her stepmother. No matter how much he loves her, it would be impossible for him to give her the family business.

It’s a pity that she was an accountant in her previous life. Apart from cooking, she didn’t have many applicable skills.

Su Jiaojiao felt sore. After returning to the house, she laid on the bed.

When she saw Song Qinghan coming in, she waved her hand and said, “Come over here~”

Song Qinghan chuckled softly, lying on the bed with her. He took her into his arms and asked softly, “What are you thinking about?”

“There is not enough flour at home but the meat hasn’t run out yet. Aside from that, we’ve already sold all the meat buns, which means this is a sustainable business.” Su Jiaojiao stretched out a few tender fingers as she thought,” We have to buy some flour, but if we buy too much, I’m afraid of being caught.”

The flour sold in marketing cooperatives are cheaper, but that’s because they require vouchers.

After completing the tasks she had been set, Su Jiaojiao had a lot of tickets. So she could set them as various different types of vouchers.

But… if she bought all the vouchers herself, she would be found out quickly, while it was the same with Ji Xuan. There wouldn’t be more than a handful and it would be weird to take out more than that at a time.

Song Qinghan pondered for a few seconds and said, “Let me do it.”

“Huh?” Su Jiaojiao had her eyes wide open.

Song Qinghan had never actively participated in this before. It seemed that in his eyes, Su Jiaojiao was just messing around, and wouldn’t be able to turn a profit.

Su Jiaojiao suddenly realized something. He never interfered in her business, so now that he has, what does it…mean?

Maybe he really has a way?

She rolled over and sat up, lying on his chest, looking at him with her head up and shining eyes, and silently urged, “Speak!”

Song Qinghan looked at her with a smile in his heart, “Wang Xiao contacted me two days ago and asked me if I needed anything. He’d deliver it to me by bus.”

“Oh~” Su Jiaojiao smiled happily, kissed him and said: “Honey, you’re amazing!”
