Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 43 Brothers
The county party committee compound.

Staff dormitory building, Building 1, Room 302.

"Zizi!"

Hot oil is poured into the plate, bringing out the aroma of ginger slices and chopped green onion, and suppressing the remaining fishy smell in the soup.

A steamed small yellow croaker is ready.

"Qingyou, take out the chopsticks and start eating!"

Xu Fangguo, wearing a red plaid bib, was smiling and shouting in the kitchen. How could he look like the No. [-] figure in Haizhou?
It's like going back to 25 years ago, when I first entered this compound.

A hard-working young man who loves to laugh.

"Oh."

Xu Qingyou walked over absentmindedly and almost knocked a plate when he took out his chopsticks.

Xu Fangguo frowned slightly.

A family of three, three dishes and one soup.

A very ordinary lunch.

But for this family, there may not be such an opportunity once a month.

Xu Fangguo, who was not even half a century old but already gray-haired, kept picking up vegetables for his wife and son.

I ate quite little.

It wasn't until both of them shouted that they stood up and made themselves a cup of strong tea.

Xu Qing had a premonition that this was going to be a lecture.

Sure enough, after Xu Fangguo sat back on his chair, he said seriously:

"Qingyou, you are not a child anymore. You are good enough in many aspects, but do you know what your biggest shortcoming is?"

"Not mature enough."

"This is your snake oil answer."

Xu Qing smiled awkwardly, trying to cheat in front of this person, but never succeeded once.

"It's because I'm not open-minded enough."

Xu Fangguo sighed and said: "A man should be able to hold the world in his heart, and his eyes should always look at his feet. As for you, you can't even hold in someone who is stronger than yourself.

"My child, it's really not that difficult to admit that others are excellent. No one dares to say that I am the best in the world.

"Don't accept it? Then learn from the other person's strengths. But if you just have bad emotions, you will fall behind and become a little wife."

"How do you talk?" Liu Wei said angrily.

Xu Fangguo was speechless, "I didn't talk about you."

"I won't argue with you, come on, rock, paper, scissors, whoever loses gets to wash the dishes."

"...I cooked the food."

"I'll still be doing it every day when you're not here."

Lao Xu surrenders, come as soon as you come!

3, 2, 1, defeated.

Humming a little tune, Pitian went to wash the dishes.

In a game that has been played for 20 years, a stupid man can only punch.

Liu Wei glanced at her son with his head hanging down and said:
"Graduate students aren't that advanced. In my opinion, it's better to take things steadily. You can still take the exam in the future. Temporary gains and losses are nothing.

“However, since we have decided to treat him as our opponent, we cannot lose to the same person twice.

"Son, mom believes in you. Don't listen to your dad's mean words. Don't talk about it until you are at his age.

"What do you call a young man without spirit? When you defeat all your peers around you, you are the best one, and the best road in the future will be waiting for you.

"Understand?"

Xu Qingyou clenched his fists: "Mom, I understand!"
-
Two in the afternoon.

The sun was shining brightly and the wind was quite strong on the road along the river.

Broken leaves swirled in the air, and bursts of sobs were torn from the dead branches of the single tree.

"Jianxun, go somewhere else, it's freezing."

Fu Qiao'e stretched out her hand to pull, but didn't pull.

Looking at his face again, my heart skipped a beat, and I had a very bad feeling.

No... Obviously the best time to get along with her was at noon, and her dad even had a little drink with him.

"Qiao'e, let's split up."

hum!
Fu Qiao'e froze in place, her mind buzzing.

After a long while, the girl came back to her senses, tears fell like rain, and she kept banging her fists.

"Why, why! I don't differentiate, I don't differentiate!"

Li Jianxun's resolute face showed determination, but his eyes were filled with tears.

"Jianxun, I know my parents' demands are excessive, but if you think about it from their perspective, you have been a leader for half your life and have many colleagues and friends, so there is some shame that you can't wipe away.

"Isn't it just money? Let's save it together.

"I don't care anyway, I will depend on you for the rest of my life, and I will rely on you!"

The beatings turned into hugs.

The girl locked her hands tightly, fearing that once she let go, she would no longer be able to feel the warmth and heartbeat.

Li Jianxun held his head high, not wanting her to notice any reluctance.

"Divide it." "I don't! Li Jianxun, you can't do this to me, you can't... wuwu~
"Jiankun is admitted to college. My parents no longer object to us being together. Why are you still like this?!"

"That's because Jiankun was admitted to university."

Li Jianxun gritted his teeth and said: "Don't you know my family? Don't you want to go to this university?
"I am the eldest brother, I must support Jiankun through college!

"I don't have the ability to marry you, do you understand?"

Fu Qiao'e did not accept this reason and shouted: "I can wait, I will wait!"

"You are 23 years old. Can your parents agree to wait another four or five years?

"Who am I to make you wait?"

"Because I love you!"

Boom!

Thunder on the ground.

Li Jianxun trembled, lowered his head, and tears fell down his cheeks.

How he wanted to kiss that red little mouth, how he wanted to stop feeling sad about that pretty face.

But, he can't.

"Be good...from now on."

He knew he couldn't stay any longer, otherwise all his efforts would be in vain. After saying a few words, he arbitrarily opened Fu Qiao'e's hand.

Swish!

A few big steps and disappeared.

"Li Jianxun, come back!"

"Come back, come back...wuwu~"

In the cold wind, the girl collapsed on the cold mud ground, crying.
-
evening.

When Li Jianxun arrived home, Hu Yuying happened to be cooking.

I complained for a long time, saying that I would not come back early, and if it was too late, the rice would be cooked.

Only she, the mother, knows how much her eldest son can eat.

Fortunately, the commune leader brought a bag of good rice that weighed 5 pounds. Otherwise, after this meal, the family would really run out of food.

Isn't this all about looking forward to the resale of grain?

"Jiankun, come on, I have to have a chat with you. You haven't told me yet, how did you get such a high score in the exam?"

In the bedroom, candles were already lit. Li Jiankun was really not used to oily beans.

Not only did the fart light up, but it also filled the room with a smell that made him dream about driving a tractor.

"Tell me first what happened."

"What?"

"You didn't look in the mirror, right? Your eyeballs are swollen like steamed buns!"

Li Jianxun hurriedly touched it. Is it so exaggerated?

"Tsk tsk, Comrade Li Jianxun, I never noticed before that you also have tears."

Li Jiankun slapped him in the face, as if he had discovered a new world.

But he knew that nothing serious would happen to Biaozi.

Because he knows everything about the trajectory of his life 40 years from now.

Unless he steps in to change.

But that doesn't seem to be the case at the moment.

Li Jianxun pushed him away with his arm and hurriedly closed the door.

shit!

After seeing this, he thought it was perfect, so he washed his face by the stream before coming back.

How can Biaozi at this age have any city?
I didn't want to say it, but a certain guy was so shameless that he threatened to tell his parents.

Make him obey immediately.

"I broke up with Fu Qiao'e."

I boil!

This had never happened in his previous life, Li Jiankun stared.

"What?"

"For you."

"..."

"If you want to go to college, you must have someone to support you. Who else can support you besides me? You can't rely on your second sister and younger sister."

"I……"

Li Jiankun was so angry that he almost slapped him. Is this something you should worry about?Don't you usually listen to the radio?
But the warmth in my heart surged, and I was shaken a little.

Does Biaozi love his sister-in-law?

Love it enough to lick!
But for himself, in a short period of time, he hardly hesitated and decided to break up.

I want to make money for myself to go to college.

This... is probably the meaning of the word "family".
