Chapter 98: They are all very frugal
Lu Bin was sure that as long as he brought up this matter, his parents would definitely agree with it. After all, they were eager to have a daughter-in-law.
How could I possibly refuse his proposal?
He couldn't guarantee it. Given the atmosphere in their village, if Jiang Xian really moved into their house in advance, he would definitely be talked about by those gossipy women in the village.
In addition, what happened today, because Jiang Xian called the police, the Liu family father and daughter were taken to the police station. This matter was enough to be discussed in the village for a while.
Basically, there is no need to guess. As long as Jiang Xian walks around in the village in the next half month, even if she does not show up in the village, the women in the village will definitely discuss Jiang Xian after having their meals. These things are very annoying.
He can control himself, but he can't control other people's mouths. This is the most frustrating thing.
There is really no way.
What Jiang Xian said was right. He and Jiang Xian could indeed ignore the rumors spread by those people in the village.
This does not mean that Mother Lu and Father Lu behind them can bear it.
They are both so weak at their age, and they have been suffering from health problems for many years. If they are stimulated again, what will happen if their physical condition worsens in a short period of time?
You have to know that when Lu Bin took his parents to see a doctor, he went to countless hospitals, looking for doctors and medicines. He didn't know how much energy he spent before he stabilized the conditions of the two elderly people. Now, he really doesn't want to take any risks.
After hearing Jiang Xian's words, Lu Bin hesitated for a moment, but he had already said it, and now he really didn't know how to face Jiang Xian.
If he pushed this matter to the back, and said that all the words he just said would be invalid, then at that time, in Jiang Xian's heart, would he feel that the status of his parents in his heart was much more important than that of his wife?
He has never been in a relationship, nor has he had much contact with women, but through the relationship between his two brothers and sisters-in-law in his family, he still has some understanding.
His two sisters-in-law were unwilling to let his two brothers show any concern for their parents in front of them.
Lu Bin knew this very well, so he naturally didn't want to offend Jiang Xian.
I don’t want to make Jiang Xian unhappy.
If it is true, and if you consider everything together, to be honest, in his heart, at this moment, he feels that his parents are more important.
He and Jiang Xian had just received their marriage certificate, and they were not very familiar with each other.
He had such thoughts in his mind, but he didn't dare to express them.
Lu Bin opened his mouth and looked at Jiang Xian, still feeling somewhat guilty. After all, he had just made a big promise that he would take the initiative to take responsibility for any small matter. However, when it came to his parents, he backed down directly. How could he feel good about it?
Jiang Xian was naturally a smart person. She could, of course, see the hesitation in Lu Bin's heart ever since she said those words. After all, if it were someone else, they might also feel that their parents were more important.
If it were Jiang Xian herself, she would naturally choose her parents before her spouse.
The bones are broken, but the tendons connected to them cannot be severed.
Before Lu Bin could speak, Jiang Xian took the initiative to speak:
"Since you also know about this matter, it's still not thoughtful enough. Anyway, I can't live in the educated youth camp for many more days. In half a month, we will hold the wedding. Then, we can move out all at once."
“No one will gossip about it.”
"You have a brother and sister-in-law at home. It would be inconvenient if I moved there without telling them."
"It would be better to wait until after the wedding, and then move in in a more open and open manner. It would also be reasonable and legal. By then, the villagers wouldn't gossip about it, and you wouldn't be embarrassed."
Jiang Xian has always been the kind of person who doesn't like to make things difficult for others. She knows that everything Lu Bin said was for her own good.
If this is true, it would still be difficult to implement.
Just don't make things difficult for Lu Bin anymore.
I appreciate his kindness.
After Jiang Xian said these polite words, Lu Bin felt even more guilty.
I just felt that I was worrying too much and was unable to protect Jiang Xian. I had to let her continue to endure the suffering in the educated youth center for half a month.
That environment was indeed a bit too difficult.
Jiang Xian was actually quite resistant to the environment in the educated youth center.
But on second thought, if she were to move into the Lu family now, her movements would definitely be restricted.
I can’t go in and out freely like I did when I was in the educated youth camp and go wherever I want.
Besides, she was still thinking about doing business. If she moved into the Lu family, she would have to report to both Lu's father and mother every time she went out.
In addition, Lu Bin was not at home during the day because he was at work, leaving her alone, so she had to spend some time with Lu's father and mother, as well as Lu Bin, his two brothers and sister-in-law in advance.
Just thinking about it makes me feel suffocated. After all, we are all strangers and there is no need to put on a smile. Besides, Lu Bin’s two sisters-in-law are not good people either.
If we try to get along with them, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult than those educated youth in the educated youth centers.
At that time, she would be completely helpless, with no freedom at all, and if she went out frequently, she would go to the town to find the owner of a sewing shop to have her clothes altered.
It's unknown what Lu Bin's two brothers and sister-in-law are doing, but they are plotting against her behind her back.
Jiang Xian felt suffocated whenever he thought of that kind of day.
She felt very comfortable in the educated youth center.
Jiang Xian rejected Lu Bin's kindness.
She appreciated the kindness.
As for Lu Bin, after listening to Jiang Xian's words, he knew that this matter was impossible and that his decision was too hasty. So the two of them simply put the matter behind them and stopped discussing it.
Lu Bin thought about it and couldn't help but carefully instructed Jiang Xian like an old nanny, asking her to pay attention to the educated youth in the educated youth site.
Don't let yourself be bullied. If anyone bullies her, ask Jiang Xian to go to his house and find him.
As a husband, if he cannot support others at the critical moment, then what is the use of him? Now, Jiang Xian is no longer the lonely educated youth who went to the countryside.
It's not that he has no relatives around him. Now that she has married into their Lu family, he is the most powerful backer behind Jiang Xian.
Naturally, he had to support Jiang Xian and not let Jiang Xian be bullied in any way.
This journey is neither short nor far.
Lu Bin and Jiang Xian walked for about twenty minutes and arrived at the entrance of the village.
Both of them are young and strong in their prime years, and their arms and legs are at their most nimble.
Even though he intentionally slowed down his pace, he was still walking that fast.
If it were someone else, it might take them forty minutes to walk this distance, but the two of them, chatting as they walked, and without intentionally speeding up, actually finished twenty minutes earlier than others, shortening the distance by half. It was truly impressive.
Lu Bin sent Jiang Xian directly to the gate of the educated youth center. It was intentional for him to support Jiang Xian and make these educated youth think twice before bullying Jiang Xian, wondering whether he, Lu Bin, was someone who could be easily provoked.
Jiang Xian actually knew what Lu Bin meant. Originally, he wanted to stop him and tell him not to send her to the educated youth point. After all, the distance between the educated youth point and the Lu family was quite far. If he were to send her there, it would be dark by the time he got back to the Lu family.
It was totally unnecessary to walk for more than ten minutes just to establish her authority. Besides, these educated youth were no match for her now.
She can fight two grown men at once. If any of these educated youth are blind enough to provoke her, then death is the only way waiting for them. I believe these educated youth are self-aware.
Today, both the father and daughter of the Liu family have been sent to the police station. Even though Liu's father is fine, Liu Yingying is still in prison. I don't believe that these educated youth will not have any fear of her because of this incident.
If it were a smart person, they would probably think that they should never make her angry.
The farther away from her, the better. I think she is someone who is not easy to mess with. Only a fool would take the initiative to provoke her now.
After arriving at the entrance of the educated youth center, the two said goodbye. Lu Bin looked at Jiang Xian and only turned and left after entering the door of the educated youth center.
After Jiang Xian entered the house of the educated youth, kerosene lamps had already been lit inside the house. Because in this era, although every household had installed electric lights, electricity still cost money, so most families preferred to use kerosene lamps. Although there were many disadvantages, they had been doing this for so many years. In order to save some electricity bills, they would choose to continue lighting kerosene lamps, even if the walls were smoked black, it didn't matter, after all, saving money was the first priority.
This kerosene lamp is also very useful in the educated youth's center. After all, these educated youth have to rely on their own abilities and be self-reliant.
They were able to come to the countryside and work as educated youth because they had no support. Only they themselves knew this, and now they can only rely on themselves.
The few work points I earned from working every day were not enough to spend.
If their families valued them and sent them some daily necessities or money on a daily basis, they would not have lived such a miserable life in the countryside.
Usually, people like them are the ones who are not favored at home.
For children who are valued by their parents, their parents will do everything they can to prevent them from going to the countryside to suffer.
Since they have all moved to the countryside, naturally there is no one to give them pocket money every month.
The money they had was nothing more than the work points they earned every month from working in the village, so they naturally had to be frugal. After all, they never knew when they would get sick and all their money would be gone.
This money must be spent wisely, and they are very clear about this, so they will naturally choose to be frugal in every aspect of their daily lives.
They were not particularly wasteful in food, clothing and other daily expenses. It was just that on weekdays, they felt that the food at the educated youth's place was too bad, so they chose to dine out in a state-owned restaurant. In that case, there were five or six educated youth in the room, and if they shared the bill, they would be able to pay for it, especially since they were all girls.
As for their appetite, they all have small appetites. If one person orders one dish, they basically cannot finish it all. Five or six dishes are already a luxury for them. If each person shares one dish, it doesn't cost much money, so they can still afford it.
As for other daily necessities, they were extremely frugal. Although there were electric lights in the educated youth site, they still had to pay the electricity bills themselves every month. So they chose to continue lighting kerosene lamps. In this way, they did not have to spend any money. They asked the women in the village for kerosene, so they were very frugal.
In this youth cadre camp, they are not the only ones living in this house.
If there are five or six people, and the electricity bill is calculated, no one will have any objections when it is used. But when the day comes to pay, how much to spend will become a problem.
At that time, there will inevitably be arguments and debates about who pays how much money and who uses how much electricity. After all, whoever spends an extra penny will feel bad.
At that time, the person who spends more money will also feel unbalanced.
Although the educated youth in the educated youth center seemed quite peaceful on the surface.
If they were to quarrel over this matter, not only would they be laughed at by others, but it would also have a great impact on their internal relationships.
If they have to live together all the time and there are many internal conflicts, they will not be able to live in peace. They will quarrel all day long, which will make people upset.
No one wants to be in a quarrelsome environment all the time, so they are very careful about this.
