"I didn't expect you to be so lucky. You just happened to help Brother Wang stop a bike thief, and Brother Wang was able to help you get a bicycle ticket."
On the way back to the small mountain village from the county seat, Li Shiqiang lay on the car with a comfortable look on his face. After listening to Xu Sheng's words, he also said with a little pride: "I told you, good people will be rewarded with good things, and bad people will be rewarded with bad things. .”
Brother Wang was the worker who retrieved the bicycle before. When he heard that Li Shiqiang needed a bicycle ticket when he was entertaining guests for dinner, he immediately responded to the matter with a pat on his chest and asked Li Shiqiang to come to the county town again later. You are guaranteed to get your ticket.
"Tch, if it's really that accurate, all the people in the world will be good people." Xu Sheng, who was driving, turned his head and said with some disdain.
"You don't care about good people or bad people. You drive the car first. It was shaking all the way so I couldn't sleep."
Li Shiqiang turned over and twisted a little uncomfortable.
"Sleep like hell!"
After Xu Sheng said angrily, he turned his head again and said seriously: "Er baby, I'm serious, do you really want to buy three big things in order to marry Huang Yun?"
"Don't say anything to me. Anyway, I'm buying it for the people in my house. Think about it for yourself. Which of the villages near us bought three big things when they got married?"
"Brother Wang works as a worker in the county town. He only bought a bicycle when he got married. Your family has built a new house now, and you are so good at making money. Isn't it easy to marry a wife?"
Listening to Xu Sheng talking so much and speaking so seriously, he must have felt unworthy of himself in private.
Li Shiqiang chuckled softly, stretched out a hand to rest on the bottom of his head, looked at the blue sky and said slowly: "There is nothing easy about marrying a wife. You must like it first. After all, we will stay together for a lifetime. You If you find something you don’t like at all, you won’t want to watch it for two years.”
"Secondly, you must be able to live a good life. Although Yunmei's family has better conditions than those in the village, she is good at working in the fields and cooking, and her temperament is also gentle and gentle. No matter what others say There’s nothing to lose your temper about.”
"Finally, you already said that I can make money by beating things. It's not like I can't earn the three big items that the Huang family wants, so why would I want to marry someone I don't like?"
With the bitter marriage experience in his previous life, Li Shiqiang will never choose a marriage he doesn't like again.
Not only did he sacrifice himself, he also wronged others.
Many people get married without ever thinking about whether they like it or not, and whether the two people are suitable for each other. After getting married in a daze, they realize how painful it is for two inappropriate people to be together.
In this era, there is no such thing as divorce, and many people just make do with it.
After finally reaching the age where divorce is possible, most of them already have children, and they can only continue to live together reluctantly for the sake of their children.
"Humph, since you are willing to give up the money, then let's get married!" Xu Sheng shook the cow rope in his hand and said a little unconvinced.
"hehe."
Li Shiqiang smiled sideways, looked at him and said, "If Chen Chunhong marries you for the rest of your life, would you be willing?"
Chen Chunhong is a girl in the village who is about the same age as them. She often talks to Xu Sheng for help when she has something to do, and she has taken a liking to Xu Sheng.
But in fact, Xu Sheng had no feelings for Chen Chunhong at all, and instead fell in love with another girl in the village.
Xu Sheng frowned when he heard that he was getting married to Chen Chunhong. Just when he was about to say no, he remembered what he had said before and said stiffly: "Why don't you want to? As long as you don't let me buy the three major items, I know how to cook in the fields, and I know how to give birth to babies. Which girl would I not marry?"
"Okay, since you said so, I'll tell Chen Chunhong when I get back. She probably likes you anyway, so I'll let you two get married as soon as possible."
"No! No!"
Xu Sheng shook his head in a hurry, turned around and warned: "If you dare to talk nonsense to Chen Chunhong, I will get a snake to hide in the newly built house for you."
"Heh, I'm not afraid of yellow tigers or blind bears, but am I afraid of snakes?"
"Aren't you afraid? Is Huang Yun afraid?"
"Then when your family builds a house, I'll get a snake in too!"
.......
The journey is long, and it would be nice to have someone to bicker with to pass the time.
Bickering all the way, the two took turns driving the car, and finally returned to the small mountain village.
But it was already late at night, and the small mountain village was silent and fell into a deep sleep.
But in the Li family's house, an oil lamp was burning.
"Hey, you two are finally back."
At the entrance of the Li family compound, Chen Xianglan held a kerosene lamp in her hand and looked at the two figures on the mountain road with the faint light.
Li Shiqiang on the ox cart smiled happily and asked, "Mom, it's so late, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Why sleep?"
Chen Xianglan waved her hand nonchalantly, and then complained: "If you could save people some worry, I would have gone to bed long ago."
He obviously looked worried, but he still pretended not to care at all and even said some complaining words.
Li Shiqiang has long been accustomed to this kind of care from his family.
"Okay, now that we are back, you can go back to the house and sleep."
"I told you, what's the point of sleeping?"
Chen Xianglan shook her head and called Xu Sheng who was about to leave: "Sheng, please don't leave in a hurry. Wait for Mrs. Chen to get you something to eat. It's so late, you must be hungry already, right?"
It was impossible for Xu Sheng's sister-in-law to wait for him to return, let alone cook for him.
So after hearing Chen Xianglan's words, Xu Sheng chuckled and nodded in response: "I had something to eat at night, but I was shaking a lot on the way, and I became hungry halfway through."
Li Shiqiang was pulling the bullock cart into the yard, preparing to remove the cart boards and feed Erhei with fodder and water.
After hearing Xu Sheng's words, he said directly: "You are really used to eating in our family. My mother used to be polite when she called you to eat, but now she doesn't even know how to be polite and just calls you hungry."
"Why are you so polite? If you're hungry, you're hungry!"
Before Xu Sheng could speak, Chen Xianglan said angrily, and then took Xu Sheng's hand and walked into the room: "Quickly, go sit down and have a rest and drink some water. Mrs. Chen made dumplings today. Wait a minute." I’ll cook dumplings for you.”
"Yes, Mrs. Chen, I haven't eaten dumplings in a long time!"
When the two of them walked in, Chen Xianglan still didn't forget to say to Li Shiqiang: "You should hurry up, I made some leek stuffing specially for you today."
"It's rare that my mother still remembers that I like to eat leek filling!"
"Nonsense, move faster!"
Not long after Li Shiqiang entered the room, Chen Xianglan came over with two large bowls of dumplings with a smile on her face: "Hurry, eat quickly, the dumplings this time have a lot of stuffing, I make sure you eat enough!"
