Father's Land Mother's River

Chapter 30 Choice
Liu Xiaonan was so drunk by Guan Deyu that he walked and hit the wall in a daze, Guan Xiaoyun helped him to lie down in his room.

Liu Xiaonan had a splitting headache and kept shouting that he was thirsty, so Guan Xiaoyun had to pour water for him over and over again.

Liu Xiaonan lay on his back on the kang, rubbing his temples vigorously with his thumbs, sweat oozed out layer by layer on his face, his eyes were red but he did not lose his mind, he looked straight at Guan Xiaoyun and said: "It's too uncomfortable, I'll let you know later. Don't drink any more. I'll lie down for a while, and you don't hit me with broomsticks."

Guan Xiaoyun wiped his sweat with a wet towel, and said with a soft smile, "I won't hit you today, and I won't hit you in the future, so rest assured."

Liu Xiaonan smiled foolishly: "We are engaged, it will be wrong for you to hit me again."

"Let's live a good life, no quarrels, no fights." Guan Xiaoyun sat on the back of Liu Xiaonan's head, rubbed his temples for him, immersed in the yearning for a better life: "Once you're engaged, you should settle down, don't take any more risky things Son. You don't know that I was scared to death by you today, I couldn't see you at all when you were in the wave valley, and my heart jumped into my throat."

Liu Xiaonan raised her neck and looked at Guan Xiaoyun with hazy eyes: "Xiaoyun, you are actually quite beautiful."

Guan Xiaoyun covered Liu Xiaonan's eyes with both hands: "Only when you're drunk will you say something hot, don't watch it."

"If I can earn the manuscript fee, I will buy you new clothes to wear."

"What is a manuscript fee?"

After only saying a few words, Liu Xiaonan couldn't hold back the strength of the wine, and was extremely tired from fighting with the fish in the river during the day, Liu Xiaonan's eyelids tightened and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Guan Xiaoyun guarded Liu Xiaonan for a while, seeing that he was frowning tightly, his face turned from flushed to pale, his breathing was rough and loud like a bellows, and he looked very uncomfortable, it really hurt his heart.She came to the courtyard and said to Guan Deyu: "Dad, don't make Xiaonan drink anymore, he doesn't know how to drink, and I have to take care of him when he gets drunk."

Guan Deyu glanced at Liu Zhixin, and said to his daughter meaningfully, "Who will take care of you if you don't?"

Liu Xiaonan woke up in the middle of the night suffocated by urine, reached out her hand to feel the light wire under the edge of the kang, turned on the light and was about to go down to the ground, when she caught a glimpse of Guan Xiaoyun sleeping on the other side of the kang.

There is only a towel quilt on the body, and the ripple-like curves are undulating; the slender and healthy limbs are stretched out, and the strong and clean shoulders are like a curved boat, as if they can carry everything; The tranquil face exudes a charming atmosphere.

He was so frightened that he was sweating all over, and immediately turned off the light.

Liu Xiaonan tried her best to suppress her beating heart, and waited for her breath to calm down before getting down to the ground in the dark, and tiptoed out of the house to the yard.After urinating for a long time, he stood alone in the yard, staring at the four dark rooms in a daze.

The two families were already sound asleep, except for Guan Xiaoyun's room, it was inconvenient to go to any room, so they couldn't sleep in the pot bottom, right?
With a cool breeze, Liu Xiaonan completely sobered up - this was the tacit approval of the elders!It was obvious that he and Xiaoyun had been treated as a young couple.He hugged his shoulders and looked at the dim starry sky, feeling neither happy nor worried, just feeling a little cool.

Where is the little girl who planted the seed of a dream and disappeared without a trace?Teacher Yue said that Gu Yu's expectations are closely related to her dreams, but Gu Yu has already turned into a symbol. Even if her dream has come true, what can she do if she stands in front of her?
Time changes everything and everyone.Xiaoyun loves herself, always has been, the distance between her and her is only a few steps on the kang, much closer than the bright stars.

The mosquitoes didn't allow him to think any longer, and quietly bit him a few big bumps, the itching was unbearable.He waved his arms to repel the mosquitoes, but was forced into the room by the relentless mosquitoes, and carefully climbed onto the kang as quietly as possible.

In the dark, some people are very courageous, while others are very courageous.

Liu Xiaonan didn't move and didn't dare to breathe. She listened carefully to Guan Xiaoyun's breathing, which was sometimes long and faint, and sometimes rapid like a kitten's purring, her heart beat in rhythm with her breathing.

He guessed that she might have been woken up by himself and was just pretending to be asleep.What would happen if you sneaked past by yourself?

Nothing will happen!Just a mischievous mentality at work.The shock brought to him by the larva that was abandoned on the garbage dump and ruthlessly deprived of its life had long been deeply rooted in his life.

In order to control the chaotic emotions, Liu Xiaonan tried his best to think about some distant things that had nothing to do with Guan Xiaoyun, so as to divert his attention and wild impulse.

For some reason, he suddenly thought of the girl who went to the wrong dormitory when classes resumed. When she returned to her bed, was she upset or her heart beating like a drum?What embarrassing things would happen if there was an empty berth next to me that day?
Liu Xiaonan was amused by her own weird thoughts, and couldn't hold back her laughter for a moment.This situation and this scene are so similar, but one is accidental and the other is inevitable; one is past tense and the other is present continuous tense.

There was also a suppressed laughter from the other end of the kang, and Guan Xiaoyun's reproach floated through the darkness: "I don't sleep in the middle of the night, is it because I dreamed of marrying a wife or because I haven't sobered up."

Liu Xiaonan replied in a low voice: "Neither. I suddenly remembered that when I was living in school, a girl got up at night and went to the wrong dormitory, and she even touched my face."

After a long silence, Guan Xiaoyun said quietly, "Are you that girl or am I that girl?"

"It's just a joke, don't think too much about it."

"In front of adults, does what you say count?"

"Lang came on a bamboo horse, and went around the bed to grow green plums. We lived together in Liuzi Street, and the two little ones had no suspicions. Twenty is a gentleman's wife"

"I don't understand, go to bed quickly. Your father is back, and you have endless work to do."

There was a slight snoring sound from the other end of the kang, Liu Xiaonan stared into the darkness with her eyes open.

The two elders agree that the lifelong event that has been decided is a natural success, but how far are these few steps on the kang?Guessing that Guan Xiaoyun was fast asleep, he quietly pushed the door open, frankly and frankly, there was nothing shameful about it.

The two woke up together in the morning, looked at each other and smiled embarrassedly, Guan Xiaoyun covered his head with a towel, Liu Xiaonan hurriedly put on his clothes and got off the kang.

Wash your face, comb your hair, and have breakfast with the elders. The elders don't pay attention, and they are naturally like a family, so there is nothing embarrassing about them.

Several families united to dig out the well, burn the kang, re-scrape the wall, and rinse the dirt on the surface of peppers, eggplants and other vegetables with clean water. As Guan Xiaoyun said, when Liu Zhixin came home, Liu Xiaonan always had endless work to do.

Guan Xiaoyun came to help every day, took on the role of the unmarried daughter-in-law, and participated in the daily life of the Liu family.The relationship between the two was made public and was generally favored by most people.

Magus was the only one who liked to gossip.She spent so much time trying to win Guan Xiaoyun's hand, but in the end she became someone else's wife under her nose. She felt very ashamed.

His own daughter-in-law is not inferior to Guan Xiaoyun, but the dowry is too harsh, and the TV recorder is also indispensable. If you don't build a new house, you won't get married.Relying on being able to speak well and promising to build a new house after marriage, the daughter-in-law agreed to marry over this year's National Day.

However, a storm made the daughter-in-law change her mind again. How can she get married when the house is under such deep water?The wedding date is postponed, and the new house is built before marriage.

Ma Gesi tried his best to slander Liu Zhixin and his brothers for still living in the wing room, and he did not hesitate to use Guan Xiaoyun's indifference to family background and house as an introduction against his will to persuade his daughter-in-law to look forward.

The result of the final negotiation was that each took a step back, Magus agreed to renovate the house, and the daughter-in-law agreed to marry over according to the scheduled wedding date.

At noon, four young people sat under the big tree at the gate of the courtyard to enjoy the shade.Qishun's daughter-in-law and Guan Xiaoyun discussed the color and style of the clothes when they got married, what kind of shoes to match, whether the hair should be permed into big waves or small waves, and what should be added. Guan Xiaoyun enthusiastically offered advice.

The more Liu Qishun listened to it, the more annoyed he became. Guan Xiaoyun was not afraid of causing trouble, so he came up with a blind idea to ask his family to pay more.He glanced at Liu Xiaonan who was practicing brush calligraphy on the bluestone board and said, "Xiaoyun, if you have money, you can buy some paper for your Xiaonan to practice calligraphy. No matter how much money you can save, there is no such way."

Guan Xiaoyun laughed and said, "What do you know? Xiaonan learned to write from the stone tablet. Of course, you have to practice calligraphy on the stone slab. If you have the ability, you can also use the blue stone slab as paper."

Liu Qishun said: "You two get married quickly, stay far away from me, and don't bother others when they see you two."

Qishun's daughter-in-law said: "You still have the face to criticize others. I can tell you, if your family doesn't build a new house for me after marriage, the old and the young will lie to me, and I will still divorce you."

Not all the sweet words came out of the beautiful mouth, Liu Qishun suddenly became wilted.

Liu Xiaonan took a pen and dipped a little water in the washbasin, and wrote a traditional Chinese character for "love" and a simplified Chinese character for "love" on the bluestone board.As the handwriting gradually faded, he felt that the traditional Chinese character "love" was beautiful and connotative.

Moved home a few days later and everything was back to normal.When Liu Zhixin was about to leave, he told Liu Xiaonan in front of Guan Xiaoyun: "The boss is not young, he seems to be the one who will marry a wife, so you can no longer act according to your temper."

It's rare for his father to talk to him with a pleasant face. Could it be because of Guan Xiaoyun's relationship?Liu Xiaonan's heart became hot, and she sincerely said to her father what was in her heart: "I don't want to take over your class. I am not competing with you, but with myself. If I can find a way out by myself, I still won't take over your class."

Liu Zhixin glanced at Guan Xiaoyun, suppressed his anger and said, "I am willing to believe in you, for a period of three years, if there is no hope at that time, just obediently let me go to work in the mine."

"Okay, let's take a period of three years." Liu Xiaonan ignored Guan Xiaoyun's tugging at his skirt, and said decisively: "Your old classmate and my teacher Yue told me that if I failed to realize my dream, I would never be able to realize my dream." Don't go to see him. Every time I go to Fuzhou City in the past two years, I look around like a thief, for fear that I will meet Teacher Yue unexpectedly. I'd rather hide in the mines."

It's hiding, not willingly taking over.Liu Zhixin secretly worried that it would be a bad thing if his son imitated his teacher Yue Zifan.He said to his son: "It's good to have dreams, but you have to learn to live first. You can't just think about yourself when you do things now. You still have Xiaoyun by your side. You should think about how to support a family and how to take on the role of a man." Responsibilities. You have dreams, but Xiaoyun doesn’t have dreams? Your mother, uncle, and aunt don’t have dreams? Everyone has dreams, don’t elevate yourself too high, live your own life and then talk about your dreams.”

The fourth brother also has dreams!It was the first time Liu Xiaonan heard what his father said, and felt that it made sense.He really wanted to prove himself, he really wanted to send out the "Teacher", and he really wanted to see the images of the three teachers he described turned into printed characters.

But what to do if the manuscript is rejected again, won't it become a joke among the villagers?Because Guan Xiaoyun was involved, he couldn't stand such a setback.

Liu Xiaonan restrained her next impulsive heart, she should revise it a few more times, try to reach the perfect level before talking.

Half a month later, two notices posted in front of the store pushed Liu Xiaonan to a crossroads in her life again, but they were all unexpectedly good news.

One is: With the development of the rural economy, rural credit cooperatives have expanded their business scope and openly recruited full-time employees.High school education or above is required, and candidates will be recruited on the basis of merit through the examination.

The second is: In order to help the poor and relieve the disaster, with the approval of the Bincheng Labor Bureau, the Bincheng Textile Factory decided to recruit a group of peasant workers from the three most severely affected townships, retain their rural household registration, sign a five-year labor contract, and cooperate with the state-owned Workers get equal pay for equal work.Requires a junior high school education or above, unmarried, between 23 and [-] years old, pass the examination and select the best candidates.

What is the concept of farmer rotation workers?Not national workers, not all migrant workers, not collective workers, not universal contract workers, not temporary workers.

Literally, the labor contract should be automatically terminated after the five-year contract expires.They are all old, and it is time to go back to the countryside to get married, and then change to a group of rural youths of appropriate age.

The great youth is dedicated to the city, but in the end it has to return to the countryside to count the ditches.If you are more sensible, you should apply for a rural credit cooperative.

Although he didn't get rid of the word "rural" in the end, he was a full-time employee of the banking system after all, which meant he had a solid job and didn't have to take over his father's job, so he had proved himself in front of his father.

What about that distant dream?Although the name of the farmer rotation worker is ugly, it is very close to the editorial office, very close to Guyu, and in the same city. It would be great if I could get the guidance of Teacher Zhao Guangzhi face to face.

Maybe there will be a day when I can meet Gu Yu.There seems to be God's will in the dark, and dreams have never been so close and within reach.

Liu Xiaonan had difficulty making a decision for a while, he was not alone now, and he had some scruples when considering issues.
