Rural people like to eat by taking their bowls to the street. They either squat at the street entrance or sit anywhere they can find.
They ate and chatted.
Before Lin Yifeng's parents could answer the neighbors' questions, Uncle Si, beaming, replied, "We're back! We're back!"
"Haha, our Xiaofeng is definitely not leaving this year!"
"Xiao Jin might start teaching next year."
The Fourth Uncle, whose nose was red from drinking, answered questions perfectly. Lin Yifeng clicked his tongue twice, thinking that the Fourth Uncle's ability to answer normally while drinking was quite impressive.
...
The meal lasted from around 1 p.m. until nearly 3 p.m.
Among them, Zhou Xuelan, Bai Yejin, An An, Lin Xiuxiu, and Lin Chongfeng left the table before 2 p.m. to go to school.
Lin Yifeng, on the other hand, stayed with the adults in his family, continuing to eat and drink.
His idea of having a physical education class at two or three in the afternoon has been temporarily cancelled.
Around 3:30, the relatives at home started to leave. Lin Yifeng helped tidy up the house and unloaded the supplies from the van into the house.
By the time everything was packed up, it was already 4:20 PM.
Lin Yifeng planned to go back to school to see if he could teach a class physical education class to help him digest his food.
As a result, his parents called him back.
"Xiaofeng!"
"Come in, come inside!"
Feng Cuie greeted Lin Yifeng, who entered the house with a blank expression.
Lin Yifeng's home is still the same home he lived in a year and a half ago; there haven't been many changes.
After Lin Yifeng entered the house, Feng Cuie first went out and closed the gate to the courtyard, and then closed the door to the main house.
Then he looked at Lin Yifeng.
"Xiaofeng!"
Feng Cuie's first words startled Lin Yifeng.
When are you going to marry Xiaojin?
Marry Xiao Jin?
Lin Yifeng was stunned. He looked at his father, who was drinking tea with a serious expression, then at his mother, who was staring at him. After considering his words for a moment, he whispered:
"In a few more years?"
"In a few more years??"
Lin Yifeng's father, Lin Jindong, immediately raised his voice.
"Lin Yifeng!"
Xiaofeng has stopped calling him by his full name and now addresses him directly.
"You're already twenty-one years old this year!"
"I'm twenty-one already, and I'll be twenty-two next year!"
"Look at you, people your age already have kids in elementary school!"
Lin Yifeng is 20 years old this year.
However, in rural areas, people don't use the actual age; they only use the nominal age. And once the New Year is over, they automatically add one year to the nominal age.
In other words, Lin Yifeng didn't have his birthday after the New Year, so he was only twenty years old.
But according to the traditional Chinese age reckoning, Lin Yifeng is already twenty-two!
With less than a month until the Lunar New Year, Lin Jindong has automatically added 1 year to Lin Yifeng's age!
Lin Yifeng is 22 years old!
"I'm not 22, I'm only 20, only 20!"
Lin Yifeng, whose net worth is already over 100 million, mustered up his confidence to speak when faced with his father's doubts, but the next second, his confidence vanished.
"Are you 20 years old by Western reckoning, 21 by Chinese reckoning, and 22 after the New Year?"
"There's less than a month until Chinese New Year, and it's problematic to say you're 22!"
Lin Jindong put down his tea and slammed his hand on the table: "Don't give me this nonsense. Xiao Jin has been with you for a year and a half. I didn't say anything to you last year, but this year, you have to give Xiao Jin an explanation."
"When are you two getting married? I'll go and propose marriage!"
When will you marry Bai Yejin?
Lin Yifeng had never really thought about this question.
Firstly, he's only 20 years old, which is really too early to talk about marriage.
Secondly, he also had close ties with Veronica Yip.
If he were to marry Bai Yejin just like that, how would he explain it to Ye Yuqing?
Lam Yat-fung is definitely a scumbag.
He shouldn't have continued his ambiguous relationship with Ye Yuqing after having a relationship with Bai Yejin.
But people, you know!
Especially men!
It's perfectly normal to have selfish motives.
Lin Yifeng had said long ago that he was an ordinary person.
What is a common person?
Greedy for money and lustful, yet possessing a strong sense of righteousness.
As a reborn individual destined to become the world's richest man, he couldn't possibly follow the example of cuckolded romance novels and hand over Veronica Yip to someone else.
That's impossible!
Bai Yejin and Ye Yuqing are both mine!
However, polygamy is not allowed in China, but this does not restrict Lin Yifeng at all. What Lin Yifeng is more concerned about now is how to make Bai Yejin and Ye Yuqing coexist peacefully.
Bai Yejin is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside. Back then, she would rather eat steamed buns and drink plain water than take Lin Yifeng's money.
And Veronica Yip goes without saying.
Lin Yifeng was afraid that if he told Ye Yuqing that he and Xiao Jin had served him together, Ye Yuqing would break his third leg.
This matter can only be addressed gradually.
But now, my parents are actually making me marry Bai Yejin.
If I were to actually get married, it would be impossible to keep it a secret, and Veronica Yip would definitely find out.
kindness.
Given Veronica Yip's temperament, Lam Yat-fung might really lose her in the end.
So...
Marriage is something that can't be rushed, at least not until he's won over Bai Yejin and Ye Yuqing.
"Dad, Mom, you must know that Xiao Jin and I have been studying lately!"
Lin Yifeng decides to move out and go to school to deal with his parents!
"Xiao Jin and I have already agreed that we'll go to university next year!"
"Vocational school graduates are no longer in demand. My school, Hebei Vocational University, has stopped giving out subsidies starting in the second half of this year!"
Lin Yifeng dropped a bombshell: "I went to the school a few days ago and asked the principal. The principal said that the country is changing its policies, and in two years, vocational school graduates may no longer be guaranteed job placement!"
"Dad, Mom, do you know what this means?"
Lin Yifeng's words successfully diverted the attention of Lin Jindong and Feng Cuie.
"What? The school isn't guaranteeing job placement anymore?"
"They've even stopped giving out student subsidies. Doesn't that mean that vocational school graduates are now worse off than students from our Paishitou Village Elementary School?"
"How did vocational school suddenly turn out like this?"
Vocational school students are both the darlings and the outcasts of the times.
By 1993, vocational school graduates were no longer the pride of their parents.
"Xiaofeng, is this true or false?"
