After settling several people, it was already close to noon.
In the small courtyard behind the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, there were essentials like flour, oil, and meat. Yu Songyu arranged for Wang Zhao to come over and greet everyone, instructing him to take care of things since he had other matters to attend to. He then left with Yang Qinghe to return to the village.
"Xiao Yu, you head back first. I need to find Brother Song to discuss the courtyard wall. I'll come over tonight to keep you company!"
"Huh? That might not be a good idea; people in the village will talk!"
"How about letting Li Xiuzhen come stay with me instead?"
"Don’t worry, I’ll go get a letter of introduction. We’re getting married!"
"Huh?"
Yu Songyu was taken aback; did they really need to rush into this?
"What’s wrong? Don’t you want to marry me?"
"That’s not it; I just think it’s a bit fast. How about we wait until the wall is built?"
"I actually think it’s too slow. I don’t want to wait even a minute longer; I want to marry you as soon as possible! But if you feel it’s too quick, we can wait until the wall is finished. It’s up to you!"
"Okay, then let’s wait until everything is ready. That way, we can send a telegram home to let them know!"
"Alright, but I really can’t relax with you living alone. A few small dogs won’t be much help. How about this: there are four rooms available, so I’ll call Li Xiuzhen and Wang Jianjun over to stay with you. That way, there will be someone around!"
"Sounds good; that will make things lively!"
Yang Qinghe reached out and ruffled her hair before heading into the village to discuss the courtyard wall.
Just as Yu Songyu was about to head home, she felt like she had forgotten something important and suddenly remembered that she had promised to deliver books to Zheng Xiu today.
She took out two books from her space and put them in her bag. After asking around, she arrived at Zheng Xiu's house.
"Is anyone home?"
Yu Songyu called from the entrance; the courtyard wall was low enough for her to see the entire yard.
"What brings you here?"
Zheng Xiu came out from inside and was astonished to see Yu Songyu at her doorstep. After staying in Shi Gou Village for so long, when had anyone ever lingered at her door?
"Here, I brought you something! Did you forget what we agreed on yesterday?"
Zheng Xiu remembered, but he happened to have the day off today. He thought Yu Songyu would wait until he was back at work to give it to him. Unexpectedly, she still remembered and personally brought it over.
His fondness for Yu Songyu rose significantly.
Zheng Xiu wiped his hands on his pants before taking the two books from her hands. They were "The Red and the Black" and "Dream of the Red Chamber."
"Quick, hide them! Don't let anyone see!"
These books were sensitive right now, so it was best to be cautious to avoid trouble.
"Yes, yes, I got too excited!"
Zheng Xiu hurriedly stuffed the books into his chest, clearly thrilled.
"Well, I'll leave the matter with the Lin Industry Bureau Broadcast Station to you. I'm heading out now!"
"Alright, there's nothing much at home to offer you anyway, so I won't keep you!"
"No worries, don't be polite with me. I'm off!"
With that, Yu Songyu left. Zheng Xiu watched her retreating figure and couldn't help but feel emotional.
What a generous girl! She didn't look down on me at all and even came all this way to deliver books!
Zheng Xiu closed the courtyard door with a sigh. Was there really someone like her willing to pay attention to someone like him? But if she knew the truth, would she discard him like a worn-out shoe?
When Yu Songyu returned home, she found several people standing at the entrance. They looked like villagers come to help build the courtyard wall.
