Chapter 256: Chapter 256 One Radish, One Hole

Before, there were quite a few people from their Educated Youth Institution.

Some had returned to the city, some had passed exams to return, some had gotten married, and some had taken wives.

As of now, only the two of them remained as Educated Youth.

Neither wanted to marry, nor to take a spouse, but both were undervalued by their parents at home.

"Wife, your family sent you a package, I drove the tractor to the county town today to buy fertilizer, and brought it back for you on the way."

Zhao Tianlei could drive a tractor, which they had only bought a few years ago.

Only a handful of people knew how to drive one.

"A package?"

Where did this package come from?

Yun Xiaoxiao was even more curious as she looked at the address—it was from the city where the female supporting character’s family lived, but the name seemed like the female supporting character’s second brother.

Things sent to her?

Once opened, it revealed the contents inside.

Some snacks for children, candies, cookies, even a jar of canned food, and a piece of flawed cloth.

It appeared they had received meat, and this was some sort of return gift.

From these items, it seemed Xiaoxiao had a good relationship with this second brother.

"My second brother sent it."

Tianlei had heard his wife mention this before.

It seemed like she had received a package sent by this second brother before.

Inside was also a letter tucked in.

Opening it, he saw the contents.

[Little sister, greetings upon seeing this letter!]

[I heard from Mom that not long after you went to the countryside, you got married and now have two nephews; I wonder how your husband is?]

[After Mom returned from your place, we divided the household, including your share—that’s what Mom and Dad said was for your dowry.]

A dowry?

They left her a dowry?

[After the new year, big sister and her family will be moving out; I also heard from Mom that initially, when you went to the countryside, it was big sister who secretly registered on your behalf.]

It looked like this matter wasn’t hidden; probably everyone who should know about it already did.

But it had nothing to do with her.

Yun Xiaoxiao continued to read.

[Little sister, Mom said if you want to return to the city, you must bring your man and kids with you. I think Mom is wavering and will give you a job. As for your man, he should be able to find some temporary work using that dowry money.]

What?

They want to give her the accounting job?

And they’re really planning to find work for her man?

Initially, they had been so certain that they didn’t want to return to the city, it seemed like just an excuse to get rid of her.

So why now, were they truly planning to give her the job?

[Right now, quite a few Educated Youth are returning to the city, a turnip for each hole, it’s not easy to find work, but I’ll keep an eye out. As soon as there’s news, I’ll send a telegram to you.]

Indeed, quite a few Educated Youth had returned to the city.

Xiaoxiao knew about this.

The large influx of Educated Youth returning to the city had made jobs even harder to find.

This could delay things.

[Little sister, take good care of yourself, I won’t say more. Second bro.]

After reading the letter, Yun Xiaoxiao looked up slightly towards the man sitting beside her, who wanted to peek over but managed to restrain himself.

"Here, take this."

What?

Give it to him?

This letter was now handed over to him.

"If you don’t read it, I’ll take it back."

Read.

He wanted to read.

Zhao Tianlei took the letter and quickly scanned through it.

When he saw that it was her big sister who had registered her for the countryside, he understood that his wife came from a well-to-do family.

If she hadn’t gone to the countryside in the first place, they never would have met, and she wouldn’t have become his wife.

"So, do you want to go back?"

If she went back, would his wife truly bring him and their children along?

"We’re going to take the college entrance exam. What would I do going back? Aren’t you afraid I might really leave you guys?"

Afraid.

But he couldn’t keep her in the countryside forever.
