Shen Mu didn't know why that girl, whose beauty could steal everyone's attention, glared at him before she left, as if he had done something outrageous.
But before he could think clearly, he heard that she had promised someone. Shen Mu didn't know why a piece of his heart seemed to be dug out alive, and dense pain appeared on his body that he thought was numb.
Yuan Sheng pressed the corner of his mouth, took out another fruit candy from his pocket and handed it to the fat aunt, asking with difficulty.
"Auntie, can you tell me which family Comrade Yu has promised?"
I got another fruit candy, the fat aunt put it in her pocket and said while digging.
"It's He Qing from the brigade next door. That guy is also a battalion commander. He's tall and handsome, and he's not bad at matching Ah Shu either."
Yuan Sheng's eyelids drooped as he listened.
Shen Mu picked up the hoe again and thought while pressing the bitter tongue.
The conditions of the battalion commander are not bad, and he can still join the army. The girl's tender white skin can be well protected by the love and care of the man, and he should not have any delusions.
"It doesn't matter if the conditions are good. I have been engaged to the girl from the Yu family for more than a year. Even if I can't come back for the New Year, I haven't let my parents come to the captain's house. I haven't sent a letter to the girl from the Yu family yet. , isn’t it in vain that he makes the girl wait for him?”
An aunt curled her lips and said, it sounded like she didn't like this kind of disrespectful people.
Shen Mu's hand paused, Yuan Sheng heard something inside, and looked at the aunt, wanting to know more information.
The fat aunt stopped laughing when she got the fruit candy.
She lives next door to the Yu family. The two families are neighbors and often move around. Naturally, she knows that the He family has never been to the Yu family once except for the engagement day. It is just like the two families have never been engaged. The relationship is better than her neighbor. Still distant.
But no matter what you think, the Yu family's marriage is still going on. The fat aunt doesn't want to say bad things about the husband's family. If it spreads to people's ears and they think these words are from the Yu family, isn't she the one who ruined the marriage? Bad things.
"Don't talk nonsense. I heard that He Qing is coming back from demobilization soon. He may have a job in the county in the future. He may come to Yu's house for a ceremony in a while. You should prepare the money for the banquet first."
The fat aunt said it so well, but the aunt doesn't like these two young people.
"I'm not just talking nonsense. The marriage between the Yu family girl and the He family was originally arranged to repay He Qing's life-saving grace."
"The two of them have never met each other. It's been so long since He Qing didn't write back to talk about this. I'm afraid he already has a girl he likes over there."
"I think since the captain's family is waiting for someone to break off the engagement, it's better to come and break off the engagement first, to earn some face, and let Yu Yatou find someone to live with other boys."
The way this aunt taught people how to do things made the fat aunt speechless.
"Aunt Wang, please don't tell me these things here. If you have the ability, tell the captain."
"That's it. I really don't think I know that your son wants to marry Ah Shu and refuses to go on a blind date."
"You, too, don't know how to ruin a marriage by demolishing another temple? Besides, even if Ah Shu breaks off the engagement, she still won't look down on your son who spends all day eating at home."
The fat aunt's exposure made Aunt Wang so angry that her face turned blue and white, but having a son at home who was not up to par made her bend her back and she couldn't argue.
Hearing this, Yuan Sheng understood that Yu Shu had no relationship at all with the engagement partner, and that person might still have someone there, so the possibility of the engagement being called off was very high.
As for the life-saving grace, Yuan Sheng said that this is a new era, and repaying life-saving grace with one's own body is feudal dross and should be discarded.
If the He family doesn't want to, he has a lot of money tickets here, so at the worst, he can just give it to them.
Yuan Sheng thought so well that he wanted to give up his job and immediately returned to the Educated Youth Institute to count how much money he had left to follow the ticket.
But after thinking about it, Yu Shu was the daughter of the captain. He left before finishing his work. When the captain came back and didn’t see him, he was given less than his future son-in-law’s share. It was not cost-effective, so he had better finish all the work before talking about it. .
