The comrades from the film studio left the Wuliqiao brigade, and the brigade was somewhat empty at night.
Comrade Li Yuezhen generously left gifts for both Jiang Xinyu and Chen Xiuyun. For Chen Xiuyun, it was a box of Friendship Cream, and for Jiang Xinyu, it was a notebook. There was a sentence written on the inside page of the notebook.
"I wish Comrade Xinyu a happy family, good health, success and peace."
Below is Comrade Li’s written address of her home and the contact number of her work unit.
Jiang Xinyu smiled after seeing it. Comrade Li is more likable than Comrade Chen Jiajia. She treats people very sincerely!
When they left in the morning, Comrade Chen Xiuyun gave them a bagful of cantaloupes and cucumbers, as well as a jar of pickled pickles, which could last them two or three days.
The yard suddenly became empty, and Jiang Xinyu packed up her small house.
In fact, there was nothing to clean up. Chen Xiuyun had taken out the old mattress and dried it in the morning. All she needed to do was put her own sheets on it.
As for the quilt, she still needs to take it apart, wash it and sew it back on, but the weather is too hot now, so she only needs to cover her belly with clothes at night, and there is no need to cover her with a quilt.
There seems to be an endless supply of frogs all over the mountains and fields, and every household in the village catches them and beats them as sacrifices. However, in the evening, the sounds of frogs are still heard one after another.
For dinner at home, we still had fried frogs with small pumpkins. The mother and daughter were talking and were in a good mood.
Jiang Xinyu pointed to the only rabbit left in the grass cage and said: "This rabbit is so fat. If you continue to raise it, you will have to dig grass for it. How long will it last?"
It originally belonged to two rabbits, but one of the rabbits was exchanged for money by Zhou Qi and has been eaten for a long time. Now this one is alone.
Chen Xiuyun glared at her, not knowing that the little girl was craving for that bite of meat.
"It's also a dish to keep for weddings at home. Feed it well and it will gain weight."
Jiang Xinyu was stunned, happy event? What happy event?
"Second sister is getting married?" Why didn't she know?
Jiang Yuzhu glanced at her speechlessly, "Could it be me who wants to get married?"
Chen Xiuyun hummed: "You will graduate from high school soon. Chen Yima mentioned it to me. We also discussed it. In the free time after the autumn harvest, we will find a good day for you and Chen Yi before or after the new year.
The matter is settled. By then you will both be old enough to get a marriage certificate."
Jiang Xinyu: “…!”
She was so shocked that she couldn't say a word for a long time.
Didn't you say that you would keep her for another year? How could you just change your mind?
"Isn't this inappropriate? My second sister is not married yet. How can I get married in front of her?"
Chen Xiuyun took a piece of cucumber, chewed it and swallowed it, then said deliberately: "What's the point? If you don't spend so much money as Chen Yi, I can keep you for a while longer."
Jiang Xinyu lowered her lips, "You just want to kick me out as soon as possible."
Chen Xiuyun said jokingly: "You are lazy and greedy now. I can't afford to support you. I really want to kick you out."
Jiang Xinyu was heartbroken and gave her a resentful look.
She admits that she is greedy, everyone is short of words, who is not greedy? But she will never admit that she is lazy, whether it is at school or at home, when has she ever slept in? She did not delay when it was time to go to work.
Pass.
Jiang Yuzhu smiled and said: "You and Chen Yi are very good, so why aren't you willing to get married early?"
Chen Xiuyun shook her head, "I think she did it."
Jiang Xinyu said confidently, "I'm not doing this. How can it be the same at my own home as when I go to someone else's home? Can Chen Yi do this to you? What if she and I don't get along?"
Now she misses Chen Yi's original mother very much. She was really generous and did not do much. She was definitely the love-in-law of her dreams.
Widow Wang has a reputation for being fierce, and she, Jiang Xinyu, is not one who is willing to suffer. When the time comes to live under the same roof, they will not see each other when they look up. What should they do if they have conflicts?
She really didn't want to get married so early. She was only eighteen years old, and she didn't know if there were any family planning products now. What if she gave birth to all the children? She also wanted to go to college, which was too big a thought.
When Chen Xiuyun heard her words, she felt that her little girl was sensible.
She looked at the two daughters and said: "Everyone is related to each other. Whether it is a husband or wife or a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law, they must understand each other to make the family relationship harmonious. I think Chen Yima is a reasonable person. You should be a good daughter-in-law."
How could she not treat you well?"
Jiang Xinyu picked up the food without saying a word.
She now discovered that even if she and Chen Yi agreed not to get married now, things might be out of their control.
The most important thing is that she seems to be the only one who doesn't want to get married so early.
The next morning, Jiang Xinyu settled accounts for another long time in the public house. When she was walking home from the public house at noon, she saw Jiang Baoqin walking with a tall young man with a Chinese character face. The young man's face was a healthy wheat color, with a Chinese character face.
It is a face that people nowadays think is very good.
However, this young man with the Chinese character face was not from the Wuliqiao brigade. Jiang Xinyu had never seen him in the brigade.
Jiang Baoqin's eyes lit up when he saw her, "Xinyu, wait for me."
Jiang Xinyu didn't slow down. She didn't think she had anything to talk to her uncle, aunt and family. Last time Jiang Zhifei saw her, he snorted coldly.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Comrade Xia Dongmin, the captain of the Advance Brigade, and a college graduate."
Xia Dongmin nodded politely to Jiang Xinyu, "Hello."
Jiang Xinyu also nodded.
Where is the young man who was called the captain in the previous sentence, who is young and promising, and who graduated from college? Is Jiang Baoqin here to show off to her?
"Xinyu, you are about to graduate from high school, and Brother Dongmin is graduating from college. They are both young gays. You two must have something in common."
Jiang Baoqin said this as if she was twice as senior as the two of them.
Xia Dongmin glanced at Jiang Baoqin, not without anger in his heart.
He took time out to come to Wuliqiao Brigade today for a blind date. Unfortunately, this blind date seemed to ignore him and wanted to introduce him to others.
However, the figure and temperament of this lesbian named Jiang Xinyu are even more urban than those from the city, and her appearance is much better than Jiang Baoqin.
"My brother Xia Donghua is also a sophomore at Commune High School. Do you know him?"
Xia Donghua? Jiang Xinyu really knows him.
"We are in the same class."
Xia Donghua's face covered with acne appeared in her mind. When she thought about it, the two brothers were really similar. They both looked reliable and honest.
Jiang Baoqin was a little happy to see the two chatting with each other, but it was a pity that before she could be happy for a moment, her aunt Jiang Cuicui's voice rang out.
"Baoqin, go home and cook. Your parents are both home."
From a distance, Jiang Cuicui saw Jiang Xinyu standing there with a dazzling white face.
She was wary. She had introduced Xia Dongmin to Jiang Baoqin as a good marriage partner. How could she take advantage of Chen Xiuyun's daughter?
