Chapter 167

Everyone wants it

Bai Lan struggled slightly but didn't break away. She whispered: "I heard that there are many beautiful female college students in the university. You won't forget about me when you go to university, right?"

Chen Changqing was anxious, "How could I forget you? You are the only one in my heart. No matter how beautiful those female college students are, they can't compare to you in my heart."

Bai Lan whispered: "I believe you."

"but--"

"What my dad means is that we have been dating for more than half a year and my dad is also satisfied with you. He hopes that we get married as soon as possible."

"Get married?" Chen Changqing stuttered, "But I'm only twenty-two years old, and you're only twenty."

Bai Lan blushed, "My cousin got married when she was eighteen, and I am already twenty. If I don't get married, I will become an old girl."

Chen Changqing doesn't want to marry Bai Lan at all.

Although Bai Lan's father is the director of the commune's revolutionary committee, he is too small to be an official.

Moreover, Bai Lan's mother is an out-and-out country woman, and Bai Lan has always lived in the country and only graduated from high school.

If he goes to college in the future, he should be assigned back to Haicheng, his previous place of residence, after graduation. By then, he will be a cadre in Haicheng. How could he marry a country girl who graduated from a high school?

He hugged Bai Lan tightly and said softly: "There is no rush about getting married. After the Chinese New Year, I will take you home to meet my parents and we can talk about getting married."

Bai Lan whispered: "But the recommendation to go to college will be finalized soon. After the New Year, I will go to school."

Chen Changqing let go of Bai Lan, lowered his head and looked into her eyes seriously, "So, I need you to do work for your father."

"Getting married is a big event. I don't want it to be so hasty. We still have to hold a lively and glorious wedding. Now that the Chinese New Year is so close, it's too late to do anything."

"Bai Lan, don't worry, I will definitely marry you. I just don't want our life-long event to be done in such a hurry."

"When you get home, you must tell your dad that there is no rush to get married."

Bai Lan hesitated for a moment, "But my dad said, don't hold the wedding yet, just get the marriage certificate first."

Her father told her that if Chen Changqing became his son-in-law, he would give Chen Changqing the college recommendation even under great pressure.

As he is getting older, of course he should plan for his children while he still has some ability.

If the son-in-law is successful, his daughter will be able to enjoy the blessings in the future.

This is like the ancient rich man marrying his daughter to a scholar and then sponsoring him to go to Beijing to take the exam, just for the sake of honoring the husband and honoring the wife.

Chen Changqing graduated from high school. He was quite active in his work and was good at making troubles. He had a good reputation in the commune. No one could say anything good about recommending him to go to college.

Director Bai's plan was that the two of them would get their certificates first and then hold the wedding after Chen Changqing went to school for a year or two. By then, no one would have anything to say.

Chen Changqing didn't know what to say. Director Bai didn't let the hawk see the rabbit before he saw it.

It took him a while before he managed to say something, "Getting married is a big event. Even if we don't have a wedding, I still have to tell my parents first."

"It takes twenty or thirty days for this letter to come and go. I'm just afraid of delays."

Bai Lan touched the braid on her chest and said softly, "It's almost time."

"Anyway, I listen to my dad."

Only then did Chen Changqing realize that Bai Lan, who he had always thought was silly and innocent, was actually scheming. Wasn't she just playing tricks on him?

He tried his best to smile at Bai Lan, "I should be able to make it in time."

"If that doesn't work, I'll call my mom's work, but it will cost some money for the phone call."

Bai Lan smiled shyly, "That's good."

Chen Changqing took Bai Lan's hand and walked her to the door of her house before walking back.

As he walked, Chen Changqing thought over and over again.

It didn't take long for him to make a decision. In order to get the recommended place to go to college, he had to get married!

He also needs to get married as soon as possible! Nothing is more important than his future!

As for calling his mother, there is no need at all. Marriage is free. He is already in his twenties and can decide his own affairs. I believe that his family will approve after they find out.

Chen Changqing made a decision, and his steps became brisk. When he thought that he would soon be able to leave this remote country and go to the provincial capital to go to university, he was so happy that he almost flew away.

He worked hard in the Yangjiao production team for three or four years, and all his efforts and painstaking efforts were finally in vain.

Chen Changqing went home humming a little tune. Zhao Tingting saw it from the window and whispered: "I always feel that Chen Changqing's girlfriend Bai Lan was deceived by him. Chen Changqing is very scheming."

Susie smiled and shook her head, "Not necessarily."

"If you think about it, Chen Changqing is a very talented person. He graduated from high school and is an urban youth. His conditions are not bad."

"Bai Lan is a country girl after all. If she doesn't find Chen Changqing, she will just find a young man in the production team and face the earth with her back to the sky for the rest of her life."

"No one in this world is a fool. When you are plotting against others, others may also be plotting against you."

Zhao Tingting thought over Su Qian's words in her heart and nodded slowly.

Chen Changqing went to Bai Lan's house early the next morning. After an in-depth talk with Bai Lan's father, the two reached a consensus.

Chen Changqing and Bai Lan immediately received the certificates, but they did not announce it to the public yet, otherwise the recommendation to Chen Changqing would be said to be abusing power for personal gain.

Not announcing this to the public played into Chen Changqing's wish, which meant that no one except a few members of the Bai family knew that he was married.

Director Bai also told Chen Changqing not to get the certificate at the commune, but to go to the county town. There are no acquaintances there, so he doesn't have to worry about being discovered.

Chen Changqing got the guarantee from Director Bai that the recommended quota would be given to him, so he took Bai Lan to the county to get the certificate that day.

In a few days, Susie and the others heard about the recommendation to go to college. The commune required each production team to apply for someone to go to college.

While eating, people at the two tables were discussing this matter.

Zhang Weidong said carelessly: "Everyone wants this quota, but we don't think we can get it. There are hundreds of educated youths in our commune. Who knows who this quota will fall on."

Niu Jianguo said: "It goes without saying that it must be a related household."

Yu Xue glanced at Su Qian and said, "Some people are related to the captain, so maybe everything has been taken care of."

Chen Changqing was shocked, feeling that Yu Xue's words seemed to be talking about him.

At this time, Su Qian, who was sitting at the next table, turned her head, looked at Yu Xue and said: "You said the captain's relatives, are you talking about me?"

Yu Xue chuckled, "Just know it yourself."

Chen Changqing felt relieved. It turned out that he was talking about Su Qian, and it was his fault that he didn't hear clearly. Yu Xue was talking about the captain's relatives, not the director's relatives.
