Bai Xiu, who was in the first half of the bedroom, stared at the waning moon outside the window and sighed heavily.
"Okay, don't think so much. We have watched that boy from Bo Shan grow up. As for his good character, let alone our Eighth Farm Team, the whole farm is one of the best among the younger generations."
"Oh! I know this, I just..."
"You don't know, when I went out just now, two people...were right in front of my house!"
"We were hugging each other right outside our house. If I hadn't seen clearly that it was Boshan, I would have beaten him to pieces with a stick!"
Bai Xiu was still upset and sat up angrily, "Do you think he is sincere to Yan Hong?"
Feng Taizhou also sat up and said, "Huh! Fortunately, I didn't let him in just now."
"What? He just came?" Bai Xiu lowered his voice and looked at Feng Taizhou in surprise.
"Why didn't you let him in when he came?" She should have called him in just now and asked him!
Feng Taizhou said righteously: "If you don't agree, how dare I let people in? Besides, that kid actually did such an immoral thing. If I don't beat him, I can't live up to his parents!"
"Tsk! You sound like you are a serious person. Go to sleep!" Bai Xiu gave him a blank look, lay down and covered herself with the quilt.
Feng Taizhou held back his smile and stepped forward, "Actually, I think that boy from Boshan is pretty good. He's not a man who is always busy. Even if he doesn't go to college, he may not be wronged by Yanhong."
"Didn't you also say that the life of a couple is never smooth sailing? As long as two people can work hard together, they can always live a good life, right?"
"If you look back at us, what did you do when we first got married? It was a little bitter, but isn't it better now?"
"Didn't Yanhong also say that times are progressing, and things are different now from our time. Yanhong has a lively mind, and Boshan is loyal, honest and hard-working. As long as the two children are happy, the future will be the same."
"Humph! You haven't even written a word yet, but you're thinking far ahead." Bai Xiu knew in her heart that the words he said before were all paving the way to persuade her.
In fact, she knew in her heart that the two of them had to take a long-term view of life, but she really didn't expect that Yanhong and Boshan could get along with each other.
Feng Taizhou said in a good-tempered manner: "Okay, okay, I don't want to go that far, so let's take a look at the nearby place first, okay?"
"What's close?"
"Let's start tomorrow to investigate and see if Bo Shan is sincere towards Yan Hong."
Bai Xiu hesitated for a while, then softly agreed, "Okay."
******
Early the next morning, Feng Taizhou took Feng Yanjun to feed the pigs first. Feng Yanhong had already gone into the kitchen to make breakfast. Bai Xiu had her hair pulled up and she had just washed up.
When there was a knock on the door, Bai Xiu had just poured a basin of water into the trough of the chicken coop. He carried the basin to the door, and saw Li Boshan through the crack in the door. He hesitated for a moment and made a face.
"Bai, Aunt Bai, the fish I caught in the morning are all still alive, so I brought you a basket."
After what happened yesterday, Li Boshan was really frightened when he saw Bai Xiu again.
Bai Xiu looked up and down. The fish basket in Li Boshan's hand was heavy and dripping with water.
To be honest, she couldn't hold back her face with this child.
"Come in."
Li Boshan followed Bai Xiu into the yard. When he passed by the kitchen, he glanced in. Feng Yanhong was busy and didn't notice him at all.
Li Boshan had been worried all night, but now that he saw her, even if it was just a silhouette, his heart finally returned to his stomach.
He followed Bai Xiu obediently, poured the fish from the fish basket into the basin, and helped Bai Xiu to press the well water.
Bai Xiu went into the house and took the scissors, but Li Boshan was at a loss.
Originally he had thought about it, as long as he could take a look at her, but now he saw it, but he didn't want to leave yet...
"Do you have anything else to do?" Bai Xiu moved a small chair and sat by the basin.
"No, no more."
Li Boshan rubbed his hands, trying to drive him away. Aunt Bai did not agree with his affair with Yanhong.
"Then stay and eat."
It was like hell for a moment, and heaven for a moment. One second Li Boshan was still thinking about how he should stay, and the next second he got permission. How could he be unhappy?
Showing two rows of white teeth, he squatted down to help, "Aunt Bai, let me help you pack the fish."
It would be a fool to reject him at this time!
Feng Yanhong rushed out of the kitchen and was stunned when she saw Li Boshan squatting under the eaves with her mother, carefully scraping fish scales.
He hurried into the house to get something, and then grabbed a small chair and placed it behind him.
The two of them looked at each other, smiled and said nothing, but seemed to have a tacit understanding, which caught Bai Xiu's eyes.
Bai Xiu said calmly: "I'll stew these two big ones with some sauerkraut later. Have you cooked enough? Boshan will eat here too."
"Enough."
She originally wasn't sure how much Lu Tingwan would eat, so she added another bowl of noodles and pancakes. After thinking about it, she thought that Yan Jun would go out at noon and might not be back until the afternoon, so she added some more noodles.
Now it seems that this meal should be enough to eat, but Yanjun may not have enough space to eat.
I can only make some noodles after the meal and make a separate cake for him.
"My sister's cooking skills are even better than my mother's recently. This pickled fish is so good."
Feng Yanjun couldn't help praising the fish as soon as he took it into his mouth.
"It's delicious. Sister Yanhong's cooking is much more delicious than the one in our military canteen. It would be great if I could eat it every day."
Lu Tingwan looked at the basin of fish with both eyes, and his eyes shone brightly.
"If it's delicious, eat more. Don't be polite." Bai Xiu smiled and asked Lu Tingwan to eat more.
He turned to Li Boshan and said, "You should also eat more. Don't be polite."
Li Boshan nodded obediently, but he was not polite. He had eaten at Feng's house before, but this was the first time he had eaten Yanhong's food today, and it was much more delicious than what he had cooked.
A few green vegetables and a large pot of fish were eaten completely, not even the soup was left, and not a trace of porridge and yeast bread was left.
"Yanhong, when you see Miss Lu off later, stop by the supply and marketing cooperative to exchange for some rice and noodles. I'll get you food stamps."
Feng Yanjun took the initiative to take over the dishwashing work, and Feng Yanhong followed Bai Xiu into the house.
Li Boshan's eyes kept chasing Feng Yanhong, Feng Taizhou sat in his place and observed him carefully. When Lu Tingwan saw this scene, she immediately hid aside to watch the rabbit.
Feng Taizhou asked straight to the point: "Your Aunt Bai told Yanhong that as long as you can get into college, she will agree to your affairs. What do you think?"
"Yanhong also persuaded me yesterday to continue taking the college entrance examination. I have already agreed to Yanhong. Today I will go and ask if it is too late to read this year's application. If not, I may have to apply for next year's application."
"Uncle, I have discussed it with Yanhong. I will definitely find ways to make money in the future, and I will never let Yanhong suffer any injustice!"
Li Boshan solemnly made his promise, his whole body stretched straight and he was extremely serious.
"My uncle has written this down, but the day is still long, so we have to watch it while walking."
In fact, Feng Taizhou is more satisfied with Li Boshan than Zheng Guoqing and Cao Hongjun.
"My uncle doesn't have any objections, but his opinions don't matter either. Do you understand? Yanhong's mother has endured hardships like mine. What she fears most is that her daughter will suffer the same as she does. You have to understand her."
"I understand, uncle." Li Boshan nodded heavily. He understood what Uncle Feng meant.
If he wants to marry Yanhong, he must pass the test of Aunt Bai. Aunt Bai is most afraid of Yanhong suffering, so even if he cannot take the college entrance examination this year, he must work hard to prove his ability.
