After returning from the racecourse, Xiao Keyan felt a bit off and asked Dong Jingyi, "I haven't been away from Xiliang for more than a few years, so why did I find that this time, some people here really have such thick skin?"
Dong Jingyi paused, then smiled and tentatively asked, "Did someone approach you at the racecourse?"
Xiao Keyan looked surprised, "How did you know? Did you see?"
Dong Jingyi smiled mysteriously, "I didn't see, but I can imagine. The racecourse is not yet open to the public, and those who can enter now are mostly local soldiers. It is tough for the Border Army to take wives; you should be aware of that, right?"
Xiao Keyan nodded, "I know, back then, my father went through a headache to solve this issue. He built residential areas for the military families and tried all sorts of methods to recruit and encourage women from other places to come over. It really took a lot of effort."
