Rebirth in Famine: She Thrives by Lucky Space

Shen Jian Country came over early the next morning with breakfast.

"Uncle, Aunt, it's time to eat."

"Okay, Jian Country, I made porridge, you should have a bowl too."

Shen Jian Country sat down with a smile, and the four of them were quite satisfied after the meal.

"Uncle, Aunt, come over to my house for dinner tonight."

Pan's parents nodded with a smile, "Alright, we'll drop by and bother you then."

After breakfast, the young couple rode their bikes to work. "Xiulan, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative at noon to get some sugar."

"I'll go too, Director She saved some for me."

"Alright, I'll pick you up, shall we eat at a restaurant?"

"No, let's eat at the canteen instead."

"Then I'll pick you up to eat at our canteen? You can compare it with your textile factory's to see which is better?"

"Hmm, I'll ride my bike over myself. Our Vice Factory Director's bike shouldn't be in use."

"I'll come pick you up."

Pan Xiulan certainly had no objections. "Alright, I'll wait for you at the gate."

In the morning, she received a lot of gift money, with the union sending over dozens of dollars that were collected.

"Sister Meng, for the three-day wedding return, should we go eat at a restaurant? I'll organize how many people there are."

"Secretary Pan, no need to treat to a meal. If you're feeling bad, just give everyone wedding candy. That's pretty much how it's done."

"That's quite embarrassing."

"What's embarrassing about it? That's just how it is."

Pan Xiulan thought it was best to discuss with Shen Jian Country at noon.

Yao Shimin came over and handed Pan Xiulan ten yuan, "Congratulations, Secretary Pan."

"Thank you, Vice Factory Director Yao."

"No need for politeness, make sure to be happy after marriage."

Pan Xiulan nodded with a smile, "I definitely will."

Not long after, Qian Jun also came over. "Secretary Pan, here's my gift money, and here's Director Jiang's."

"Thank you, Mr. Qian."

"Why be polite?" Qian Jun smiled and left.

At noon, Pan Xiulan and Shen Jian Country went to the police station to eat.

His colleagues looked at Pan Xiulan curiously and smiled as they congratulated the two.

"You sit and wait while I go get the food."

Pan Xiulan nodded with a smile, the food here was quite good.

The two went to the supply and marketing cooperative together, where She Xiaoyun had prepared five pounds of candy for Pan Xiulan.

"Jian Country, there are a lot of gifts from the union too. I was thinking of treating everyone to a restaurant meal for the wedding return, but the union sister said there's no need, just wedding candy is enough. Is this okay?"

"Over on our side, it's pretty much the same. For ordinary relations, there's no need to treat to a meal."

"I see, that's why Secretary She gave me so much candy."

Shen Jian Country first took Pan Xiulan back to work, and he went home to deliver the candy.

Pan's parents were tidying up the house when they saw their son-in-law come back, wanting to make him a meal.

"Uncle, Aunt, we've already eaten. Here's the candy; I still need to go home and deliver some more."

The Shen family had also reserved ten tables at the restaurant, filled with relatives, friends, colleagues of the old couple, and friends of Shen Jian Country.

On the first of October, the two held their wedding ceremony, which was considered grand for this era.

Pan's parents stayed at a hotel today, despite the couple's attempts to get them to stay, the old couple did not agree.

Their wedding night made Shen Jian Country's heart completely embrace Pan Xiulan, knowing she was the wife to spend a lifetime with.

"Are you okay?"

Pan Xiulan nodded, finally understanding the use of the cloth on the mattress.

Shen Jian Country hugged her. "Wife, I will be good to you for my whole life."

Pan Xiulan turned around with difficulty, staring at her husband who was half-sitting and leaning against the pillow, "Me too, I will be good to you for my whole life."

On their wedding night, the newlyweds indulged in exploring their newfound experiences.

The next day, they got along even better.

Shen Jian Country went out to buy breakfast, and after they ate, they returned to the Shen family.

Upon returning, only Song Qingqing, Wang Ailing, Qian Jun, and Yao Shimin were invited to the feast.

No one else was invited; everyone was treated equally and given wedding candy.

The day after their return, Pan's parents went back home, and the Shen family prepared many gifts. Both families were satisfied, willing to accommodate each other for the happiness of the two children, which made their relationship even better.

The newly married couple was sweetly in love. Now Shen Jian Country no longer thought of Jiang Xinyu but had his wife in mind.

Wang Ailing and her husband lay in bed, "Jian Country has settled down."

"That's good; Secretary Pan is a decent person."

"Jian Country is also nice, but I wonder what Director Jiang thinks?"

"Xinyu has her ideas; I'm sure she has her plans."

"Wife, do you think your Mr. Qian likes Director Jiang?"

"Probably; you see, Mr. Qian is over thirty and still not married, and they often keep in touch."

"Has Director Jiang mentioned anything to you?"

"No, I can just tell Mr. Qian likes Xinyu. I've not seen Xinyu treat him differently."

"Director Jiang isn't dating someone at university, is she?"

"I'm not sure. If she finds someone from outside, it wouldn't be great. I don't want Xinyu to be too far away."

"Your wishes won't change anything; if our daughter wants to find someone from outside in the future, what can you do? Just let it be, Director Jiang will be back in a little over a year."

"Yeah, when Xinyu comes back, she'll be twenty-two." Wang Ailing sighed.

"Haha, maybe Director Jiang could even become a factory director."

"It's possible; she's a university graduate."

The couple discussed Jiang Xinyu, but she was blissfully unaware, cuddling with her daughter, fast asleep. She had no idea that many people were thinking of her.

They were all quite happy, only Zhao Zhongshuo lay alone in bed, thinking of Kong Mengjie.

That rare time made him reminisce whenever he had time.

He truly wanted to hold her and sleep every day together, but Kong Mengjie kept avoiding him and his thoughts drifted to his son.

From next door came crying, and Zhao Zhongshuo frowned in irritation. He was really fed up with the two at home.

Mrs. Zhao scolded her daughter, at twenty-two, she still hadn't found someone; those with good conditions didn't want her, and she didn't like those with not-so-good conditions.

Her son wasn't getting married, and her daughter wasn't wanted. What happened to her? What sin did she commit? Why were her children suffering?

"Stop crying; you do nothing all day, what good family would want you?"

"What should I do then? I don't want to live in poverty all my life. I want to work too, but where? No one is hiring, what can I do?"

"Go to the countryside; that way, when you come back, you can find a good job."

"I won't go. I've never worked on a farm, it's too hard, how will I survive? Besides, I'm already twenty-two; if I go to the countryside, how will I find a husband later?"

"You can't find a spouse like this either. Be good, sign up, so you can get married."
