Chapter 675: Uncle-in-law, can you carry manure?
Jing Ran thought of the excuses he had made up and his eyes flickered.
"I came to borrow some ink from you! My family wrote to me, and my second brother and I were planning to reply, but we suddenly realized we were out of ink..."
Lin Tang nodded, "Well, it's time to go back."
He had nothing more to say after that.
"Tangtang, have you always been so quiet?" Jing Ran suddenly asked curiously.
"Why do you ask?" Lin Tang raised his eyebrows. Why did he say that? "Didn't I answer you..."
"Okay~" Jing Ran wanted to know more about her, so he continued to ask, "What do you usually do at home?"
"Reading."
A series of sentences that can choke you to death.
After replying, Lin Tang went back to the house and got out some ink.
Jing Ran felt that he had made his presence felt enough today, so he decided to quit while he was ahead and said goodbye to the Lin family in a very measured way.
She has a round face and her smile is very healing, so everyone has a good impression of her.
"This girl is honest and straightforward, and seems like someone you can get along with. Tangtang, don't stay at home all the time. Go out and dig some wild vegetables with the educated youth. You'll get sick if you stay cooped up in the house all the time!" Li Xiuli said.
Women love to worry, and can't let go of this or that.
Lin Tang: "I understand."
"Don't keep telling me. I'll forget everything once I turn my head..." Li Xiuli muttered.
Lin Lu gave Lin Tang a helpless look, indicating that she should just listen. She closed her eyes and pretended not to hear.
Seeing this, Lin Tang kicked his legs, covered his face with the book, and pretended to be asleep.
...I can't hear anything you say.
Li Xiuli looked at the father and daughter like this, smiled helplessly, and finally calmed down.
-
Soon, it was harvest season again.
There are no major changes in the team this year compared to last year...
The only difference is that the potatoes in the brigade are worth two each, and the wheat ears are also heavy.
The educated youth were assigned the job of digging potatoes.
This is the job that the kids in the village like to do the most. There is no other way. Since the educated youth have arrived, we have to find something for them to do.
You want me to go to the fields and harvest wheat? I can't even use the farm tools properly, let alone harvest wheat, I can't even harvest grass for pigs.
When asked to carry manure, the grown men all cried.
If you can't carry manure, how can you have the nerve to find a partner?
Unconsciously, the Shuangshan Brigade's standards for choosing a spouse have changed.
Like now, around the corner.
"Sister, I like you. Let's be together." The male educated youth dressed like an intellectual picked a small yellow flower and walked up to a country girl.
He kept looking at other people's lunch boxes, wishing he had a pair of X-ray eyes to see what was inside.
The country girl, having been confessed to for the first time, blushed and said, "...Can you carry manure?"
Male educated youth: “!!!”
In the moment he was silent, the country girl, who had been smiling, turned cold.
"You can't even pick out manure, and you're still looking for a partner? You weakling, bah!!"
After saying this, he turned around and walked away.
A gust of wind blew, and the leaves on the tree fell down, covering the male educated youth's head and shoulders. The young man no longer had the smiling face he had before.
This incident was seen by Liu Damei, the village loudspeaker, and she immediately spread the news to everyone.
The key is that she described it very well...
The male educated youth stood there like a stone sculpture, stretched out his hand, and leaves fell to the ground, looking very miserable.
When Lin Tang found out about this, he was chatting with Gu Yingzhou.
Seeing her eldest nephew's face full of affection, and then extending his hand in a certain gesture, she almost vomited with laughter.
"Oh my god, Goudan, you made me laugh to death. It's a shame you didn't act."
Lin Tang laughed so hard that tears were about to fall.
Lin Zhicheng, however, still looked serious. He restrained his expression and looked at Gu Yingzhou, "Uncle-in-law, can you carry manure?"
Gu Yingzhou: “…”
Without hesitation, I nodded immediately, "Yes."
Lin Zhicheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said proudly, "I knew it. Just wait, little uncle. I'll go and clear your name right away."
After saying that, he ran out of the Lin family.
Lin Tang finally suppressed his laughter and looked at Gu Yingzhou mischievously, "Comrade Gu, are you really good at picking up manure?"
Gu Yingzhou's eyes were deep. "Otherwise, in the situation just now, even if it's impossible, you have to be able to do it."
When it comes to men’s dignity, why can’t we do that?
Lin Tang said faintly: "Oh, I understand, humans have a damn desire to win."
Gu Yingzhou: “…”
Li Xiuli heard Lin Tang's laughter and walked out of the house.
"What are you laughing at? I can hear you giggling from inside the room."
If you don’t know, you might think that the old hen at home is about to lay eggs.
With the belief that happiness is shared with others, Lin Tang generously shared the gossip that Lin Zhicheng had just mentioned.
Li Xiuli was very calm. "What's the big deal? Remember when your second brother was targeted by that lotus and your second sister-in-law made a fuss?"
"I remember, what does it have to do with this matter?" Lin Tang was puzzled.
Li Xiuli shook her head and said, "That doesn't matter. It matters a lot. Didn't you teach them a lot of tips on how to avoid being scammed back then?"
"The team also made a summary based on your generalization. It's full of rules and regulations..."
Lin Tang's gossip fire was immediately ignited, and he asked excitedly: "What are they?"
Gu Yingzhou looked at the little girl's shining eyes and held his forehead helplessly.
Tangtang, do you still remember that you are a little girl, different from the aunties in the village?
He could almost foresee what Tangtang would be like when she got older.
Fortunately, the little girl was very tight-lipped and only liked to listen, rarely participating in discussions, otherwise he would have been worried...
Afraid she would be beaten!
Facing her daughter's excited gaze, Li Xiuli's desire to tell the story suddenly increased.
"It's too long. I can only think of a few." She stated the premise.
Lin Tang: "Okay, okay, all right!"
Li Xiuli said: "They even made a village rule, saying things like respect the elderly and love the young, and be down-to-earth and hardworking..."
This was the only village rule she could remember.
Then she continued.
"Young men, when looking for a partner, first, don't look for someone who's been severely brainwashed by their parents. Second, don't look for someone who's sloppy and lazy. Third, don't look for someone who's mean and doesn't care about their family. Fourth, don't look for someone who's too picky..."
Lin Tang sighed and said, "That's quite a lot to ask for."
"You think it's too much now, but if your third brother finds someone who's the best and wants to compete with you in everything, I'm afraid I'll be pissed to death!"
Li Xiuli said, then changed the subject, "I won't be so angry that I'll die. I'll just kick them out."
She still has to help Tangtang take care of the children, how could she be angry to death!
Lin Tang was startled when he heard this and felt the same way.
Gu Yingzhou frowned slightly.
Tangtang's eldest and second sisters-in-law are pretty good. If someone like my second aunt came...
At worst, I won’t go back to my parents’ home.
If Tangtang missed his family, he could just bring his father-in-law and mother-in-law over.
Lin Tang didn't know her boyfriend was thinking so far, so she continued to ask, "How about the girl looking for a partner?"
Li Xiuli looked at Gu Yingzhou with pride, "Of course someone like Yingzhou is the best!"
Lin Tang covered his face, "Mom, don't brag like this, my partner is good, but not up to standard..."
