Chapter 122: Educated Youth Going Up the Mountain to Chop Firewood

"Dad, why do you say that to me?"

"Huh, what exactly do you two think about your relationship with Zhao Meili?" The captain looked at his son and knew that the two must have contacted each other again.

An Jianping was a little scared when facing the fierce-looking captain, but he was determined to marry the woman he loved. "I... I want to marry Zhao Meili!"

"Hmph, you want to marry me, but I wonder if I'm willing to marry you!" The team leader has been dealing with this group of educated youth for so long, so he knows the personalities of these female educated youth.

"She said she is willing. Dad, Mom, please take care of us." An Jianping grabbed the captain's arm and begged his parents to agree.

"Old man?"

The captain's wife would definitely not agree. This Zhao Zhiqing is not an honest man. He is sharp-tongued, impatient, and arrogant. If her son is with such a person, he will probably suffer.

"Have you really thought it through?" The captain looked at his youngest son. It was useless to stop him.

As a man, he knew it very well. The more he tried to stop her, the better he felt about her. It would be better to keep her company so that even if she married someone else, she wouldn't be able to live a happy life. Then she would have to blame them as her parents for not letting her marry the one she liked.

"Dad, we have really thought it through!" An Jianping was very happy when he saw the captain nod.

"In that case, find a time and ask Zhao Zhiqing to come over to discuss your relationship, and see when is the right time to get married and what he thinks." The team leader agreed to An Jianping.

"Very good!"

"Thank you, Dad!"

An Jianping was so happy that he wanted to share the good news with Zhao Meili immediately.

"Old man, this..." The captain's wife didn't understand why he agreed to this.

"Hmph, you don't even know what your son is like." Without experiencing some hardships, the son will never grow up. The captain felt that it was time to make him responsible for his actions.

"But..." As a mother, she felt so heartbroken. How could she bear to let her son gamble the rest of his life?

"A son is no longer under the control of his mother!"

An Jianping came over happily to find Zhao Meili.

"Meili, my parents have agreed to let us be together. When can we talk about our marriage?"

"I...I think we should wait until you get admitted to the steel mill, and then we can talk about our future relationship." She originally hoped that An Jianping could have a stable job so that his life would be guaranteed.

People are greedy. Once they have a thousand dollars, they want ten thousand more.

At first, Zhao Meili thought that since they were all from the countryside, she might as well find one from a better family. Now that An Jianping had the possibility of becoming a worker, Zhao Meili hoped he could get the job.

Now the two brothers of the team leader's family are preparing to take the exam at the steel plant. If An Jianping fails but his elder brother passes, is there still room for maneuver?

"Meili, you...you don't want to marry me anymore?" An Jianping was stunned.

If he fails the exam, does it mean that she doesn't want to be with him anymore?

"Oh, don't you have any confidence in yourself? Even if it's for the sake of our little home, you have to work hard." After saying that, Zhao Meili kissed An Jianping.

An Jianping's blood boiled and his eyes lit up when he was kissed by Zhao Meili.

"You...beautiful, just wait, I will try my best!"

An Jianping instantly became motivated. He wanted to work hard and show Meili that she would not regret choosing him.

Encouraged, An Jianping went home and studied hard.

Educated youth point.

"Let's all go to the mountain to pick up some branches and chop some firewood. Otherwise, we will have to go up the mountain again after the winter. Let's prepare the firewood before the winter now." Wang Yan suggested as she looked at the few branches in the kitchen.

Anyone older than a horse would not want to go up the mountain to collect firewood; it would be better to stay in the house.

"Okay, we have more people, so we can bring back more." Zhao Meili didn't want to go out to collect firewood in such a freezing cold day.

In this way, the educated youth group went up the mountain.

Qin Siyu followed Hongyu.

Zhao Gang and Wang Yan, Zhang Qiang and Xiao Zhifeng took Zhao Meili and formed three groups of operations.

Hongyu took Qin Siyu further and further away.

"Hongyu, have we... gone too far?" Qin Siyu took one deep step and one shallow step. The snow on the mountain was very thick.

"There are a lot of dead branches here." Hongyu chopped the dead branches as he walked, tied the bundles together, put them aside, and prepared to drag them down the mountain.

"Hongyu, there are cliffs ahead. We can't go any further." Qin Siyu, who was following behind, thought, why do we have to go so far just to get some firewood.

Hongyu turned and looked at Qin Siyu with a smile on his face, "What do you think of this place?"

Qin Siyu didn't react, "Huh?"

Then he looked around. All he could see were big trees and snow, but it was still pretty nice. "This place... is nice. The scenery is pretty good."

"What for? We are not here to see the scenery. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, we will be very tired when we go back to drag so much firewood." Qin Siyu could not keep up with Hongyu's train of thought.

"As long as you think it's good, I also think the place I chose is pretty good." After saying this, the smile on his face seemed particularly gloomy.

"You..." Qin Siyu's skin was covered with sweat. Why did she suddenly feel a little scared by Hong Yu's smile?

Gradually took a few steps back.

Looking at the frightened Qin Siyu, Hongyu approached her step by step, "Do you think... you will be happy to be my wife?"

"Hongyu, you...what do you mean?" Qin Siyu gradually felt something was wrong. What was he trying to do?

"Very... very happy." Qin Siyu glanced at the road behind her.

"What should I do...but I'm very unhappy."

"I was tricked into marrying someone I didn't like."

"You know what, Qin Siyu? You're the first woman who made me feel the pain of being schemed against. Before in the capital, no one dared to scheme against me like this, unless... she wanted to die!"
