Chapter 96: Write a Letter of Guarantee
Lu Dongping said: "I have the final say in my own affairs. My parents have no say in them. They are very important to me, but they can't accompany me forever. Only you can."
Coaxing little girls is a skill that men are born with and does not need to be learned.
Wen Wan pushed his hand away and looked at him seriously: "Lu Dongping, don't get carried away, think clearly. Although I am a substitute teacher now, and you also have things to do in the armed forces, if we are to be together, we have to make a living. I won't get up before dawn in the middle of winter to make a fire and cook for you. I won't want to go out to the fields in the hot sun, and you may need help with the laundry. If your parents treat me well, I will naturally treat them well, but if they treat me badly, I will also be angry and lose my temper."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "If they get angry at him, they might get angry at you too."
Lu Dongping reached out and rubbed her head: "Well, if you have a temper, just vent it on me."
Wen Wan scratched her head, feeling a bit overwhelmed. Lu Dongping was too difficult to deal with. She had said so much, making so many unreasonable demands, but he hadn't responded at all.
"I, I'm not the kind of person who doesn't keep his word. I promised to get the marriage certificate after I'm done with my work, and I won't break my promise. But Lu Dongping, you have to write me something."
Before Lu Dongping could even feel happy, he was stunned by her words: "What are you writing about?"
"A guarantee, or an agreement."
Lu Dongping was full of doubts. He had heard of the letter of guarantee. It was something people had to write after reviewing their mistakes. Why should he write one? Did he do something wrong?
Wen Wan explained to him: "Just like what you said just now, you have to write it down and promise to keep your word. Then, if you don't keep your word and treat me badly, bully me, or make me angry in the future, we will divorce."
Lu Dongping was stunned when he heard this. Without a word, he leaned over and bit her earlobe: "Why do you have such an idea? We haven't even gotten married yet and you're thinking about getting a divorce?"
Wen Wan's neck shrank, and she covered her ears with her hands. "I was just in case. I said everything out loud to avoid sadness later. I came so far from your home, and I don't have any relatives here. I'm not as tall as you, and I'm not as strong as you. Now it's all good for you and me, but friction is inevitable over time. If it comes to that, we'll both hate each other, and there's no point in being entangled anymore."
Anyway, she likes Lu Dongping now and can't do something like going back on her word. So she can plan for the future and make a few small requests. If one day she can't live together anymore, she can just leave. There's nothing wrong with that.
Lu Dongping didn't think so: "How can we dislike each other? You definitely don't know how much I cherish you. I cherish you all my life. I won't bully you. I will just coax you and love you, and let you bully me, okay?"
"Okay, then you have to write it. If it's like you said, and there's no impact, then you should keep trying and keep coaxing me, letting me go, and loving me. If you write it and leave it there, it'll just be a piece of waste paper. It'll just make me feel more at ease with you, and it won't be a big loss for you, right?"
Lu Dongping didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He pulled her over and tried to kiss her. She used both hands, lying on his legs and covering his mouth, not letting go. "Will you write it or not? If not, don't kiss me, and don't even think about getting the marriage certificate. Anyway, my words are my bond. If you don't write it, it means you don't want to. When you're done and I think it's okay, we'll go. When you're done, make three copies, and I'll put my name on them. You take one, I take one, and my seventh brother will keep one too. It doesn't matter if you think I'm being unreasonable or excessive, I'm going to do it anyway!"
Not only do I have to write it, but I also have to copy it three times?
Lu Dongping rubbed her head hard, and she nodded helplessly: "Okay, write it, I'll write it!" He had a firm grip on the marriage certificate. Only with the certificate would they be a couple, and she would be his. Forget writing a letter of guarantee, even sacrificing her own flesh would do it.
Wen Wan was satisfied and smiled.
Even though it was dark and I couldn't see her face, I could still feel her happy breath and the light in her eyes.
Lu Dongping reached out and held the back of her head and kissed her.
They are inseparable.
He said he was not in a hurry, but in fact he was extremely anxious.
He was greedy. He wanted the little girl in his arms to become his completely. He wanted to do other things with her besides kissing her. He didn't want to send her back to the educated youth point after dinner every day. He wanted her to be very close to him, so close that he could see her bright smiling face anytime and anywhere as long as he looked up.
Wen Wan nestled in his arms, panting, her whole face pressed against his chest. The vest was so thin, and the hot breath from his breath made her feel like she was on fire.
What kind of little thing is this? This is a little goblin. He is so attracted by her that he wants to tear her apart and rub her into his own body.
The large hand that reached into her clothes frightened Wen Wan so much that she cried out, "Lu Dongping!"
Lu Dongping's rationality was almost broken by her trembling voice. All he could think about was the soft and tender part that he had touched with his hand just now.
Wen Wan had never been like this before. She felt embarrassed and annoyed. She pushed him away with her whole body weak but couldn't: "Get out of the way. I want to go back and rest." Even her voice was soft, like a little kitten, unconsciously acting coquettishly. Lu Dongping pursed his lips and felt that the letter of guarantee had to be written as soon as possible.
"Okay, go back. I'll take you home. After I finish these two days, I'll write that." He helped Wen Wan stand up. Wen Wan's foot stepped on a lump of earth and she almost fell over.
"Lu Dongping, what should I do if I can't walk?" Her legs felt weak at the moment.
Lu Dongping squatted down: "Hold the flashlight, I'll carry you."
Wen Wan didn't bother to be polite with him. She lay on his back and put her arms around his neck.
Lu Dongping lifted her up and walked steadily towards the educated youth station. Wen Wan freed one hand to grab his ear and rode happily: "Go!"
"Hiss, are you making trouble again?" Lu Dongping reached out and patted her on the butt lightly.
Wen Wan didn't dare to move and became very obedient in an instant.
The next day, the sun had set and the sky was dark. Fortunately, the threshing floor had been busy for two days, and all that needed to be threshed had been threshed. All that remained was to use a sieve to sift the wheat ears that had fallen through the sieve and that the winnowing fork couldn't lift. The wheat ears on the top of the sieve were piled to one side, and the wheat kernels and husks that were sifted below were poured into the windmill. The husks that came out were blown away, and then the wheat was separated.
Liu Chaoxing took the team's big scale, and he and Zhou Minghong took care of it. They then asked the young men in the team to help weigh out the public grain to be handed in.
If the weather is sunny for a long time, it will surely rain. Before it rains, you should hand in what needs to be handed in. It is bound to rain sooner or later. After handing in what needs to be stored in the granary, you will feel at ease and secure when you see the grain stored in the granary.
Lu Dongping went to the commune and borrowed a tractor. Then the team's laborers carried the grain from the wheat field to the tractor one trip at a time. The road was blocked, and the tractor couldn't reach it, which was particularly annoying. It took the tractor two trips to finally get the weighed grain to the grain station.
Most of the wheat has been stored in the warehouse, but there is still a lot of wheat ears that have not been threshed thoroughly. They need to be dried in the sun before being threshed again. Unfortunately, the weather is not good, and it starts to rain at night.
It became cold as soon as it rained. Wen Wan pulled up the quilt at night and was woken up by the cold. She opened her eyes at a certain time in the morning, heard the sound of rain outside, and snuggled back into the quilt to fall asleep.
The three female educated youth who slept in the same room with her had all gotten up, but she still didn't move. This was the first time in history that this had happened, and it was very strange.
The rain outside has not stopped, but seems to be getting heavier. If it is too heavy, we won’t be able to go to the fields. It’s a good place to take a break from our busy schedule.
Smoke was coming out of the chimney above the educated youth site, and Lu Dongping came to bring food to Wen Wan wrapped in plastic paper.
The previous time they kicked the door at the educated youth camp, they had a grudge. Deng Hongjuan looked down upon him, not even trying to hide her dislike for him. As for Zhang Yun, she'd run away from him from a distance, as if he were a cannibal. Only Xu Wenfang was more normal, even greeting him from under the eaves: "Secretary Lu, come over here! Wen Wan hasn't gotten up yet!"
Lu Dongping nodded, but it was not convenient for him to go in, so he knocked on the window: "Wanwan, are you still awake?"
Wen Wan woke up, but felt a little cold. She was also very tired during this period of time. When she heard the sound of rain outside and knew that she didn't have to go to work, she completely relaxed.
Hearing Lu Dongping's voice, she climbed out of bed. She had worn a floral vest to sleep at night, and now she had to put on a long-sleeved shirt to get out of bed. As soon as she went out, she sneezed twice in succession.
Lu Dongping stood at the door, the plastic sheet on his body was wet, and water was dripping down from the places that could not be covered by the tips of his hair.
"Caught a cold?"
Wen Wan nodded, looking tired, and yawned with her hand covering her mouth.
"Why are you here in such heavy rain?"
Lu Dongping gave her the kettle and lunch box she hadn't brought last night. "It's raining so hard it's inconvenient for you to go over. I'll bring the food over. You can't go to work today, but if the rain stops we'll go to the fields and plant rice. Take this opportunity to have a good rest. If the rain doesn't stop this afternoon, I'll bring it over to you."
Wen Wan took the lunch box and asked him, "Have you eaten yet?"
"I'll bring it to you and then go back to eat it."
Wen Wan nodded: "Then you should go back quickly. It's raining so hard, go slowly."
Lu Dongping waved at her, then stepped down from the eaves and rushed into the rain.
In the morning, he and Lu Chun'e cooked some rice. They picked some edible vegetables from their private plot, mainly potatoes. They added some lard and boiled half a pot of soup, then kneaded some dough and cut it into the soup. It was very fragrant.
Wen Wan simply washed up, then sat cross-legged on the bed and started eating. Before she had even moved the chopsticks twice, she felt something was wrong. After two more moves, a poached egg appeared at the bottom of the bowl.
