Chapter 17 I'm in love with that young intellectual
Lu Dongping scratched his head and said, "I'm attracted to that young educated youth."
"What the hell?" Lu Minghai paused and looked back at him. "What the hell did you say? Say it again?"
Lu Dongping took two steps back, looked at the pickaxe in his hand and pursed his lips. He wondered if he continued talking, his dear uncle would use the pickaxe as if it were a shoe sole and hit him directly.
"I'm saying it again, I'm attracted to that new educated youth. I want to pursue her, date her, and make her my wife." He'd been feeling rather down the past couple of days. Whenever he had some free time, all he could think of was that little girl, Wen Wan. She had a soft voice, an incredibly pretty face, and she was so pretty. When she smiled, her eyes sparkled, and when she cried, she was just as pretty. It was killing me.
Lu Minghai took a deep breath and kept telling himself that this was his nephew, not his son, and he couldn't hit him or beat him. It took him a while to recover.
"You can tell your dad that you're looking for a partner. Why are you looking for me?"
Lu Dongping lazily followed him and said, "I mentioned it earlier, and then I got slapped by a stinky shoe. That's why I came to you. You're the eldest in our family, you're his brother, your words are much more effective than mine."
Lu Minghai snorted coldly, "If I were your father, I would beat you even harder than he did. Finding a partner is a lifelong matter. You can't just look at her and think she's pretty. You have to know her inside and out. Do you know where she comes from? What's her family background like? Are they willing to give her to you? I'm only saying this because you're my nephew. Wen Wan, that educated youth, has been pampered, judging by her manners and clothes. She must have been a delicate little cabbage. How could you, a pig like you, take her away so easily?"
"No, uncle, can you say something nice?"
Lu Minghai said: "Okay, it sounds nice. They came from big cities. Although the food relationship has changed, they have settled here temporarily, but it is difficult to guarantee that they will not go back in the future. Besides, taking a wife is for a living, and this life will last forever. The man cares about the outside world and the heroine is inside. Not to mention how powerful he is, he can do anything like a man and earn work points in the field. At least, he should do it at home. Washing clothes, cooking and growing a private land at home, these must be possible, right? Look at that little girl The educated youth, holding a rake, you can blister even before you dig it out, and you can't walk smoothly on the mountain and downstairs. How can we do this if you walk in the city like this? Think clearly yourself. This is a lifelong thing. You can't just think about it just because the parents are good-looking. When you look back, you feel it's hard to serve and don't think about it anymore. Our Lu family is not doing this. If you do this, you are not my son, and I will beat you up and interrupt your dog's legs directly! "
"Besides, you're telling me you like someone and want to be with them, but do you know if they like you and want to be with you? Marriage is free these days, it's all about mutual consent. You're so eager, what are you so anxious for?"
Lu Dongping pursed his lips and said nothing more. He carried his pickaxe and followed him to the warehouse to return the farm tools. When he turned back to walk home, he glanced at the educated youth site where smoke was curling up and scratched his head.
What his uncle said made sense.
Otherwise, why not pursue her first and get along with her?
Anyway, he really likes it.
He didn't like any of the girls his family introduced him to, whether they were from the production team or the commune, but he took a liking to the young educated youth. He liked her slowness and softness, her delicate nature. He didn't deny that he was attracted to her because of her beauty. What man doesn't like a pretty girl?
We followed Lu Minghai and chattered all the way, and it was almost dark when we got home.
When Lu Chun'e and Lu Donglin came home from school, they fed the pigs and cooked the meal. At this moment, a kerosene lamp was lit in the kitchen, and a fire was built at the back wall not far from the stove. The family members sat around the fire with their own food.
Lu Dongping walked into the room and called out "Dad and Mom", and then Lu Chun'e called out "Brother".
Lu Donglin winked at him and laughed, "Brother, why did you come back at this time?" Did you go to pursue the young educated youth? He wanted to ask this question very much, but wisely did not ask it out loud. He didn't want to be ganged up on by the adults at home.
"Just eat your meal, why are you talking so much nonsense? Did you blink? Did you get a bug or a cramp?"
Lu Donglin was furious, unable to understand why his brother was so stupid when he was so smart. However, there was no point in being angry, as he could do nothing but quietly roll his eyes and make faces.
In their family, the parents only take care of the eldest son, and the eldest son takes care of them and his siblings. He is young and has no say.
Lu Dongping saw it but pretended not to see it. He scooped hot water from the pot to wash his hands, then cooked the meal. After the meal was ready, he blew out the oil lamp and squeezed by the fire.
After dinner, the room was dark. I washed my face and feet and warmed them by the fire. While I was still warm, I got into bed.
That brat Lu Donglin was a restless sleeper. He slept like a maggot under his feet, making small noises and kicking Lu Dongping once and then again.
Lu Dongping kicked him in annoyance: "Lu Donglin, have you been itching for trouble lately? What are you doing instead of sleeping?"
Seeing that he finally spoke, Lu Donglin jumped up from his bed and asked, "Brother, did you go to see the young educated youth today? Did you tell her what you meant?"
"It's none of your business, just study hard!"
"Why is it none of my business? The young educated girl is so pretty and has such a good temper. I tell you, there must be a lot of people in our team who like her. If you don't hurry up, the duck that is about to be eaten will fly away in an instant."
"If you don't hurry up, I'm telling you, if the educated young girl gets kidnapped by someone else, you won't just lose her, you'll also lose me. After all, I don't want a brother as stupid as you! Ouch!"
Lu Dongping responded with a rude slap across his face, then grabbed his legs and pulled him into the quilt: "You're the only one who talks too much nonsense. Go to sleep!"
Lu Donglin kicked around: "I want to tell my father that you are my father!"
Lu Dongping stretched out his hand to press down the quilt, pretending to smother him: "Shut up! Bastard!"
The two of them had had enough fun, and the little warmth in the quilt had been dissipated by them.
