Rebirth begins with marrying an educated youth

Chapter 68

After dinner, Lu Heling started to tidy up the dishes and wash them.

Ji Yuanhai greeted her, went to the puddle to catch two fish, and sent them to Ji's family.

It was already late, and Ji Yuanhai had to knock on the door before handing the fish to grandma.

After casually asking about my eldest brother's marriage, my grandma said, "There will be a fair in Maji tomorrow, and the people in the Ma family said, let's find someone to take your brother to the fair, and meet the woman at the head of the fair."

Jitou is the front end of rural fairs. At the horse fair, Jitou mainly sells daily necessities and food, buns and noodle soup.

Going further back are fruits and vegetables, seeds, rat poison and the like.

At the end is the "Jiwei", that is, the end of the assembly, where livestock such as cattle, sheep, pigs and donkeys are traded. Because of the strong smell, avoid the main location of the market.

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said: "Then the matter is basically settled?"

"It's hard to tell. Both your brother and the woman have to look at each other." Grandma said.

"By the way, Yuan Hai, did you keep the fish for yourself? Don't just give it to your family, you have to eat it yourself!"

"I'll keep grandma, you can eat at ease, don't miss me!" Ji Yuanhai said a few words, said goodbye to grandma, and turned to go back to his home.

After entering the house, under the bright yellow light, Lu Heling was reading a book with her head down.

Ji Yuanhai looked carefully and couldn't help smiling, it turned out that she was asleep.

She also went out to work for a day, and now she would inevitably feel sleepy after dinner.

"Go to bed and sleep." Ji Yuanhai reminded Lu Heling.

"Ah?" Lu Heling woke up in shock, "I'll study for a while..."

"I'm tired today, and my studies are not bad this time." Ji Yuanhai said, pushing her to bed to rest.

Ji Yuanhai opened the book and read for a while. Lu Heling got up again and sat next to him.

"I'm not sleepy anymore, let's read together."

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Okay, I will go to work tomorrow, so you can sleep in for a while."

"Are you going to work again tomorrow?" Lu Heling couldn't help wrapping his arms around him, "Don't be so tired, right?"

"I really don't feel tired." Ji Yuanhai said.

The two studied for a while before resting.

The next day, Ji Yuanhai went to work following the whistle of the production team.

In the afternoon, Ji Yuanhai met Ji Yuanshan who was returning from the market. He went to work again in the afternoon.

"Brother, how are you doing?"

"It looks good to me... I just don't know what others think." Ji Yuanshan's face turned slightly red.

When work was over in the evening, grandma greeted the family with joy.

Seeing that the wrinkles on grandma's face stretched out with a smile, Ji Yuanhai gave Ji Yuanshan a slap: "Hey, brother, I can eat your wedding candy now!"

"What nonsense are you talking about...what nonsense are you talking about!" Ji Yuanshan's face turned red and he started to stutter.

Ji Yuanhai laughed and walked to grandma: "Is my brother's matter done?"

"It's done! Pick a day to go to the commune to get the certificate." Grandma smiled, "You two brothers are both married, and your grandpa and I have lost a lot of thought. Next is Yuanhong, Yuanbing, Yuan Qiang, Xiaofang and the others!"

Ji Yuanhai persuaded: "You and grandpa don't worry too much about getting involved, they are still young."

"When they grow up, it will be enough to have their second uncle and third uncle to worry about them."

"It's impossible to be as clueless as your second uncle!" Grandma said, "Our family has to help each other!"

Ji Yuanhai nodded: "Well, that's for sure."

In this era, the closest people are Ji's family and Lu Heling; Ji Yuanhai does not object to helping deserving relatives if they are able.

Of course, the premise is that in the case of my mother, my mother has changed her mind; the second uncle's temper has really changed.

Two days later, Ji Yuanhai rode a bicycle to the county town to help Mr. Wang look at the flowers.

When I come back, I still continue to work.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling usually don't ride their bicycles out of the house, because their family lives in a remote place, and most people in the production team go to work in the fields. Even a ten-year-old child has to take care of babies, help with housework, and cut grass for rabbits or pigs, so These days when the bicycle is at home, few people in the village notice it.

Occasionally, I saw it, but if I didn't look carefully, I thought Ji Yuanhai was riding the bicycle of the production team.

It’s another day at work.

Ji's family has a happy event today, and Ji Yuanshan is going to bring Ma Xiuping from Maji to obtain a marriage certificate, and then officially go home to live.

Ji Yuanhai brought home two big carps last night, which were specially prepared for the Ji family's happy event.

Of course, in the morning, I should go to work and have to go to work.

At noon, Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling went home for dinner, and met Ji Yuanshan and his new wife, plus grandparents, parents, and family reunion dinner, which can be regarded as a solemn welcome.

As soon as the production team gathered at the team headquarters, Ji Yuanhai saw his father's face was sullen, his mother's eyelids were red and swollen, something was wrong, and his always hard-working grandfather did not come to work.

Ji Yuanhai went to ask his father: "Father, what's going on?"

My father said: "I went to borrow the production team's bicycle in the morning, and your seventh uncle said that early this morning, Wang Laosan said that the commune had something to do, and he had to go to the commune to settle important accounts, so he took the production team's bicycle away."

Ji Yuanhai suddenly frowned: "Did he do it on purpose?"

Father snorted, "He used the bicycle before our family opened his mouth. Even if he did it on purpose, we can't get angry if he pretends not to know."

"The reason he said is that the public affairs are better than ours; the time he said it was earlier than ours."

Speaking of this, the always dull father couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "Damn it, I think he's doing it on purpose!"

"Specially made our family uncomfortable and speechless!"

When Ji Yuanhai heard this, he was equally displeased.

The rest of the Wang family didn't dare to say anything about the Ji family's right and wrong, and they all avoided Ji Yuanhai.

This Wang Laosan, relying on a bit of ink, knows how to play this kind of gaudy tricks.

"Is my mother also crying because of this?" Ji Yuanhai asked again.

"That's not true. When you delivered fish to our family yesterday, your mother was wiping tears in the east room." Father said.

"It's a good thing that my brother is getting married, why is she crying?"

The father glanced at his mother, and whispered the reason to Ji Yuanhai.

It turns out that my mother went to Chenlou Village early in the morning yesterday to help with the work on the private plot of my grandfather’s family and also made lunch.

Chen Xiaobao and Wang Jinhua were at home, no one was working, but mother made lunch for them.

When it was time to eat, my mother hadn't come to the table to eat. Wang Jinhua knocked on the side of the bowl with chopsticks and said to her, "Why do you still leave your mother's house without courtesy? You are so cheeky, come to eat and drink for nothing?"

Mother really didn't expect that she would be criticized for not bringing any gifts when she came to work as a coolie.

All of a sudden, I was scolded for standing, sitting, or walking, and there was no place to stand at all.

Holding this breath in her heart, her mother actually did not come home on the spot. Instead, she awkwardly waited for Chen Xiaobao and Wang Jinhua to finish their meal and then brought food to their grandparents before telling them about Ji Yuanshan's wedding. .

Since grandpa's family started accepting gifts, of course they had to return gifts.

I received two gifts from the Ji family before, but now that Ji Yuanshan is getting married, their family should return the gift. This is a courtesy exchange.

Grandpa said he didn't care about the matter and asked his mother to talk to Chen Xiaobao and Wang Jinhua.

So the mother went to Wang Jinhua and Chen Xiaobao to talk, but Wang Jinhua scolded her out of the house, saying that she had not settled the accounts for ruining the wedding banquet before, and she dared to come again to ask for a gift in return, which was shameless.

After my mother returned to Ji's house, she cried in the east room...

Ji Yuanhai listened, except for lamenting that his grandpa's family of four was "powerful", he had only one thought.

Wang Jinhua is really an excellent accelerant.

If the fire burns for a while, there will be results.
