Chapter 43 Chapter 43 The requirements for finding a partner are quite unique...

"Ah, actually I've always wanted to find someone..." Shen Moer came back to her senses and felt that Fu Zhiqing was really unexpected today. She didn't expect him to come back suddenly, and she didn't expect him to ask this question. However, she couldn't help but smile when she asked this question, "I've always wanted to find someone who's a little poorer."

First, you have to be good-looking, and second, you have to be poor.

In fact, long before she became familiar with Fu Mingze, she had discovered that there was a educated youth named Fu in the educated youth point. He was fair and handsome, more handsome than the many so-called talented and romantic men she had secretly seen in Daliang. He was also quite poor, and wore tattered clothes all day long. His clothes had more patches than anyone else's, but he was clean and tidy, which made people like him at first sight.

If he didn't look poor but had obvious arrogance in his bones, if she didn't speculate that the college entrance examination would be relaxed in the future and the educated youth would leave the countryside, and there were too many uncertainties in the future, and if she didn't have some miscellaneous concerns, she probably wouldn't have been so hesitant, let alone thinking about going on a blind date.

After all, after experiencing the fear and anxiety of being at the gates of the rebels and suddenly appearing in a completely unfamiliar world, in Shen Moli's heart, a stable life is far more important than anything else.

As I became more and more familiar with this world and my life became more and more stable, I built a new house, got a job, went to the city, and felt the stability and prosperity of this country. Only then did the feeling of wandering in another world that had lingered in my heart since I came to this world gradually dissipate.

Like the morning mist covering the fields, it disappeared without a trace in the increasingly hot sunlight.

Who cares what happens to him in the future? No matter if he belongs to Zhang Junliang or anyone else, even if he is willing to marry into the family, so what? He is not good-looking. Even if he doesn't have such an unreasonable mother, she would not like him.

There is no need to consider anyone else, just the good-looking but poor Fu Zhiqing.

It's him.

I don’t know when it started, but Shen Moer had this thought in her mind.

If she hadn't been busy since the beginning of the school year, she would have thought of a way to force Fu Mingze. She had already thought about it and would arrange it after the provincial competition was over. Who knew that this person... Shen Moer smiled, looked at Fu Mingze and said generously: "So, it's okay."

From the moment Shen Moer said the first sentence, Fu Mingze was stunned.

He thought Shen Moer would agree, and of course he also thought she would refuse, but he never expected that she would say that she had always wanted to find a poorer partner.

This requirement for finding a partner is really unique.

But soon Fu Mingze discovered that what Shen Moer said was actually very familiar... This was what his elders had told him before he went to the countryside. If he met the right person, he could start a family in the countryside. It didn't matter if he was a poor peasant for eight generations or three generations, as long as he was a little poor.

Fu Mingze looked at the girl standing in front of him. She looked different now, but if he went back a few months... he first noticed her when distributing grain in the threshing ground. At that time, she was disheveled and dressed in rags. Her family was a poor household in the village who was notoriously poor. They even fainted from hunger in the fields because their grain was stolen... If you say they were poor, they were really poor.

But in fact he discovered that day that although the girl was dark and thin, she was actually very pretty, especially her eyes, which were clever and cunning, and she did not look like the honest and submissive girl that others said she was.

His elders asked him to find someone who was poorer because they were afraid that his affair would be exposed and he would be implicated by his family. He wanted him to marry a wife of good family background. If that didn't work out, he could just break off his ties with his family and they wouldn't be affected too much as a couple.

What’s strange is that Shen Moer also said that she wanted to find someone who is poorer.

There was no problem with her family background. Three generations of poor peasants, belonging to the five red categories. She wanted to find someone who was a little poor. Obviously, she couldn't have the same concerns as him, so the only possibility was that she had a particularly high level of ideological awareness.

Thinking of this, Fu Mingze even suspected absurdly that she did not accept Zhang Junliang because the boy was not poor enough?

After all, skilled workers in a textile factory earn a little more than ordinary formal workers.

Then almost immediately, Fu Mingze felt a subtle sense of guilt. If Zhang Junliang did not meet the condition of being "a little poorer", then obviously, he did not meet it even more.

Although it seems to be consistent on the surface, in reality it is a world of difference.

The family has donated a lot to the public, but it is understandable that for the sake of the future of their descendants, the elders would not really hand over all their belongings to the public, and they must have hidden a lot... Not to mention his family, but just himself, the money and belongings he brought from the countryside were actually not small, and had nothing to do with being "poorer".

If Chen Moer was really aiming to find a "poorer" partner, Fu Mingze felt that he really didn't have much competitiveness. On the surface, he might have a little, but in essence, he had none at all.

Although Shen Moer said "yes", Fu Mingze thought about it and didn't feel a bit of joy. On the contrary, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He couldn't help but frowned slightly and asked, "Why do you want to find someone poorer?"

Shen Moer didn't expect him to react like this. Of course, she couldn't say that it was because they were too rich, and that she would feel more at ease if she found a poorer partner.

She carefully thought out an excuse: "My family is poor. I'm afraid I'll be bullied if I find someone with better conditions. Besides, there's nothing wrong with being poor. We can work hard together and live a good life slowly."

After a pause, she added: "Of course, besides being poor, you also have to be good-looking."

Fu Mingze looked slightly surprised: "She looks good?"

Shen Moer looked at him confidently: “Yes, I like good-looking people.”

Hearing this, Fu Mingze's brows relaxed.

He even had a messy thought just now. If people outside knew that she wanted to choose a poor man as a partner, who knows how many people would have ideas about it. After all, so far, the villagers have tacitly accepted that her family wants to find a live-in son-in-law, and because both he and his daughter have jobs, even if they want to recruit a live-in son-in-law, they will not recruit a bad one.

But when it comes to good looks, Fu Mingze really doesn't think there is any good-looking gay in the village. If not ugly, they are at least average.

As for him, he grew up being praised for his good looks by his neighbors in the alley.

The key point is that what Shen Moer meant by this was actually saying that he was good-looking.

Fu Mingze couldn't help but smiled sideways. Shen Moer glanced at him, her eyes lively and charming, and asked coquettishly, "Why, are you so happy when someone praises you for being pretty?"

Fu Mingze looked at her and smiled: "Of course I'm happy when someone praises me for being pretty." He paused, raised the corners of his lips, and said in a soft and slow voice: "Especially when it's someone you're dating."

He is not good-looking or poor.

What's more, as long as his past is not uncovered, as long as he stays in the Yangliu Brigade, he will definitely continue to be poor. Rounding it off, he can barely be considered poor.

To round it off, he meets her requirements, and since she said yes, they are in a relationship.

Shen Moer's face almost burned up because of what he said, but she didn't show any embarrassment at all. She seemed to be deliberately going against him and reminded him, "You don't have a partner yet. My saying yes doesn't count. You have to ask my dad first."

This is the truth. She and her father have depended on each other for so many years, so she must ask his opinion first on such matters.

Fu Mingze choked for a moment, then nodded helplessly: "Okay, then you ask your dad first, I'll try to perform well and get a permanent job soon."

Shen Moer couldn't help but laugh.

At this point, Fu Mingze suddenly remembered: "Your father should be back soon, right?"

Shen Moer nodded: "After getting a bicycle, he gets home from get off work much faster."

Fu Mingze hesitated and said, "Then I'll go back first."

At this time, he definitely couldn't run into her father, otherwise he wouldn't feel comfortable. When his cousin's girlfriend sent his cousin home for the first time, she ran into his uncle at the door, and his uncle almost hit her with a broom. He wasn't afraid of being beaten, but he was afraid that her father would be upset and directly disagree with them being together.

He was thinking that he had to leave quickly, but he couldn't move his feet. Fu Mingze couldn't help but look at Shen Moli again. There was a slight blush on her cheeks like clouds, and her eyes were exceptionally moist and bright, so beautiful that they were sparkling.

This man clearly said that he was going back, but he didn't move at all, and his eyes were even more straightforward and fiery. Shen Moer's heart was pounding when he looked at her, and she couldn't help but say, "Aren't you going back? What are you looking at!"

Fu Mingze said softly: "I'm looking for my future partner."

Shen Moer couldn't help but glare at him. Fu Mingze curled the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "I'm leaving. See you tomorrow, Comrade Shen Moer."

After saying that, he turned around and walked away decisively. When he was almost at the gate of the courtyard, he simply started running.

The autumn wind made his white shirt bulge slightly. Shen Moer saw that his back was soaked with sweat. His tall and slender figure was wrapped in the wet cloth, and he faintly exuded a youthful air.

Shen Moer's previous impression of Fu Mingze was that he was somewhat mature beyond his age, especially since he didn't talk much, which made him seem calm and a bit mysterious.

But at this moment, seeing him running out of the yard as if there was a wolf chasing him, Shen Moer couldn't help but burst out laughing.

It is rare to see Fu Zhiqing fleeing in such a hurry.

*

Fu Mingze ran all the way back to the educated youth center, stopped outside the gate of the center, thought for a while, then turned around and went to the vegetable garden.

After building a bathroom in Shen Moer's house, the educated youth also had the crazy idea of ​​building one, but they soon gave up because of the high cost.

But later they discussed digging a pond for composting manure, and marked out a small piece of land in the vegetable garden as a "experimental field."

Fu Mingze and Zhang Zhiqiang are currently in charge of the "experimental field". The idea of ​​composting was proposed by Fu Mingze, and the others knew nothing about it and could not take charge even if they wanted to.

As for Zhang Zhiqiang, he was "supervising" the progress of the matter as the head of the educated youth site. Of course, Fu Mingze would not let him sit idle. Although it was called supervision, in fact, he was fooled by Fu Mingze into doing a lot of heavy and tiring work.

In short, under their careful care, the "experimental field" seems to be growing very well at the moment.

After Fu Mingze entered the vegetable garden, he first went to look at the vegetables planted in the "experimental field", and then stood on the ridge and was lost in thought for a while.

In fact, he had not planned to ask Shen Moli today at first. It seemed more appropriate to wait until the autumn harvest was over, or until her provincial competition was over.

But when I came out of her house and walked on the village road, I suddenly wanted to go back and take another look at her. And when I was running back to her house, I suddenly spoke.

Very sudden.

It was so sudden that even he was startled.

But it seems pretty good. Although we are not in a formal relationship yet, at least I can be considered a "temporary worker".

Fu Mingze smiled.

"No, why are you smiling at the vegetable garden?" Zheng Jiamin came over at some point, with a frightened expression on his face. "Wang Qiutong said you were back in the vegetable garden, but I didn't believe it. But not only are you really in the vegetable garden, you're actually smiling at it. Are you crazy?"

Fu Mingze looked at him and asked, "What do you want to see me for?"

Zheng Jiamin: "Right, that's right. This expressionless look that doesn't bother you to talk to others suits you better."

Without waiting for Fu Mingze to ask again, he approached Fu Mingze and whispered, "I saw Shi Wei rummaging through your things."
