After receiving Qin Chuan's first-class merit, Qin's mother constantly caressed his arms and legs with concern.

I even wished to have Qin Chuan's entire body examined.

It seems like I'm afraid that somewhere is a prosthetic limb!

Now is the era of short videos, and she also understands the meaning of first-class merit in peacetime, so she is afraid that her son will be injured somewhere!

"Mom, I'm a military research and development personnel, you can rest assured!"

"The country has protected me well and safely!"

Qin Chuan patted his mother's back and explained to her.

And Qin's father brewed a cup of special tea brought back by Qin Chuan and kept asking Qin Chuan about some work matters.

Although Qin's father did not have professional tea utensils and did not know how to brew tea, he only put the tea leaves into a cup to brew them, and the whole room was filled with a faint aroma of tea.

The family happily talked about their post dinner routine together.

In the afternoon, Qin Chuan's aunt and uncle also rushed over from the county town.

The relationship between the Qinchuan family and the sister-in-law family is very good.

A few years ago, when Qin Chuan's grandparents were still alive, my sister-in-law even gave the elderly more pension money than Qin's father, who was a son.

This is because my aunt knows that Qin's father earns money in the village through physical labor, and she also needs to save money to marry Qin Chuan, so she takes extra care of the elderly.

After all, my sister-in-law takes more care of the elderly, which to some extent also reduces the burden on Qin Fu, the elder brother.

Even when I was in school in Qinchuan, my sister-in-law gave out red envelopes on a regular basis every month.

Qin Chuan was naturally deeply moved by the help his aunt and uncle provided to his family.

So he divided out half of the special cigarettes, tea, and supplements given by Commander Zhu to bring back to his aunt and uncle.

However, the arrival of Qin Chuan's sister-in-law also brought him a very helpless news.

My sister-in-law, because she learned a few days ago that Qin Chuan was going home from vacation, specially signed him up for a blind date and social gathering within the system.

Perhaps because the trend of declining marriage rates has already affected small county towns, the local civil affairs bureau and government have teamed up to organize a system wide blind date and social gathering.

Qin Chuan's sister-in-law works as a teacher at a junior high school in the county town, and naturally knows this news, so she immediately recommended someone to help Qin Chuan register.

Even the local government, in order to encourage young people within the county system to actively participate, has specially set the time of the social gathering for tomorrow Monday working day.

Unmarried young people who sign up in this way can not only have paid blind dates, but also miss one day of classes.

"Auntie, can I not go?"

Qin Chuanlu had a loveless expression and asked his sister-in-law.

He didn't expect that even if he didn't go home during the Chinese New Year, he couldn't avoid the fate of being urged to get married.

"Why don't you go now that your job is stable and you're at the age to get married?"

"And this event requires real name check-in at the venue, so it's not good not to go."

"Besides, maybe you'll just fall in love with the girl?"

My aunt looked at Qin Chuan and said to him.

On the side, Qin Chuan's mother was also constantly persuading.

Several people have already gotten married in a small village as big as Qinchuan, so Qin's mother is naturally very anxious.

In the end, facing a series of persuasions from the two, Qin Chuan could only reluctantly agree.

Although he has always been homesick outside, when he returned home, he had to face the reality of various arrangements at home and constant reminders for marriage!

…………

On the second day, Qin Chuan finished breakfast at 7 o'clock and took a bus to gather at the entrance of the county government.

He originally thought that the blind date and social gathering would be in the lobby of a certain hotel, and everyone would be forced by the host to introduce themselves and play games, and so on.

But I never expected that this blind date and social gathering would involve picking cherries together on the mountain, and all the young people would freely play according to their circumstances.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, all the participants of this blind date and social gathering gathered at the entrance of the county government on time and signed in.

Then take a bus together to the cherry picking garden on the mountain in the small town.

Most of the people who participated in this blind date and social gathering were teachers, doctors, and township public officials from the county town, and some even knew each other well.

So they started chatting on the bus, and the overall atmosphere was very relaxed and harmonious.

After arriving at the destination, you can immediately see the entire mountain full of cherry trees.

At this time, early June is the season for a large number of cherry varieties such as Red Lantern, Harvest 100, Pioneer, and Early Ruby to mature.

As soon as they entered the picking garden, Qinchuan walked towards the top of the mountain slope.

Because the road on the hillside is difficult to walk, there are fewer people picking on the mountaintop, and the cherry density is also thick.

Moreover, there is more sunlight on the mountain, and cherries are sweeter and of better quality!

I haven't tasted such fresh and sweet cherries for a long time, which has greatly reduced Qin Chuan's resistance to this blind date event.

For local young people, such a free and casual blind date, and being able to come out and play with pay, is really great.

After eating very well, Qin Chuan also brought a basket to pick the larger and ripe cherries on the tree tips, ready to take them back.

But if they come to pick and eat, the organizer will take the money, but if they want to take it away, they will have to pay for it by themselves according to the scale.

By the time they gathered at noon, Qin Chuan had already picked two baskets of cherries and brought them out.

After the gathering was completed, the bus pulled them to a farmhouse banquet at the foot of the mountain for lunch.

At this time, after a morning of contact with the picking garden, many men and women who had mutual connections had become familiar with each other and sat together chatting.

Qin Chuan looked around and found that he didn't know anyone, so he found a seat with fewer people and sat down.

What he didn't expect was that as soon as he sat down on his front foot, a girl in a white long dress sat next to him on his back foot.

"Are cherries delicious?"

The girl blinked at her and asked.

Qin Chuan couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw the girl's face as agarose and her eyes as bright as stars looking at him.

Because I always feel familiar with somewhere!

"Don't know me anymore, Qinchuan?"

The girl blinked again and asked.

"Duan Qingwan?"

Qin Chuan asked with a hint of suspicion.

This is a female classmate from his senior class, I didn't expect to ask here.

"I finally recognize my old classmate!"

"When I was on the bus in the morning, I looked like you. I wanted to say hello to the destination, but who knew you would run up the mountain right after getting off the bus? The outfit I was wearing today couldn't catch up with me at all."

"Then we gathered at noon and saw that you had brought two large baskets of cherries down. I was afraid you would ask me to help carry the cherries, so I came over now to see if it was you!"

Duan Qingwan stuck out her tongue and said slightly playfully.

"I'm really sorry, I just wanted to eat big cherries and didn't notice any old classmates here!"

Qin Chuan said slightly embarrassed.

"I see you're just here to eat cherries, without any signs of blind date or friendship."

"Is it possible that I don't feel like going to work today and just sign up for a paid tour?"

"Which company do you work for?"

Duan Qingwan continued to ask.

"I work at the coast guard, and this time I'm on vacation. My aunt gave me a name!"

"And where do you work?"

"Public security department!"

"I used to not be the school belle anymore, I switched careers and became a police belle!"

The two casually chatted and said.

However, faced with Qin Chuan's teasing, Duan Qingwan clearly felt embarrassed.

When the two first met, they were still in the prime of high school.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, they had already appeared together at the blind date and social gathering!

This can't help but make people marvel at the speed of time.

Due to meeting acquaintances, the two of them started chatting together.

It wasn't until the end of the afternoon activity that the two exchanged prestige and left.

…………

"How's it going?"

"Is there a suitable one?"

As soon as Qin Chuan returned, his mother eagerly questioned him.

"I'm too busy picking big cherries, I've forgotten the main business!"

Qin Chuan put out a basket of cherries and said with a smile.

As for the other basket, when he returned, it was delivered to the home of his aunt in the county town.

But when Qin's mother saw Qin Chuan's appearance, she could only helplessly take a basin to wash cherries.

…………

June 3rd.

Yesterday was still sunny, but today it started to drizzle.

Fortunately, the light rain was not heavy, just like raindrops, and there was no need to take an umbrella when walking on the road.

Early in the morning, Qin Chuan picked up his sister from school.

After the whole family was at home, Qin Chuan instructed them to quickly change into beautiful new clothes.

After all, when we come to deliver the first-class merit plaque later, not only will there be relevant leaders to offer condolences, but we also need to take photos.

And he also changed into his own marine police uniform.

Qin Chuan's young figure, coupled with a colonel title of two bars and three stars, makes him appear very energetic and spirited!

Around 10 o'clock in the morning, there was a burst of firecrackers and the sound of drums and gongs in the village.

Upon hearing this commotion, many people in the village strangely walked out of their homes to watch.

After all, there aren't many stores opening in the village, and ten o'clock in the morning is not the time for getting married. It's rare for such a lively scene to occur at this time.

However, as soon as the villagers walked from the alley to the main road in the village, they saw military and police vehicles lined up in a long line outside the village entrance.

On both sides of the main road in the village, there are red freshly exploded firecracker shells.

In addition, there were also teams of police and special police officers walking towards the village.

After entering the village, they stood on both sides of the main road to maintain order and cleared the middle main road.

At the same time, a plaque hanging with red ribbons and large red flowers was carried by two people as they walked towards the village from the entrance.

As they got closer, many people curiously looked towards the plaque.

Everyone is curious about what the situation is and how to create such a big battle.

But when the six big characters on the plaque were finally seen by everyone, the villagers instantly exploded!

"A family of first-class meritorious officials!"

This red background gilded big character shocks everyone's heart!

Someone in the village has made first-class achievements!
