Chapter 82 The Little Scoundrel's Dark Moonlight Educated Youth 17
Youth League House.
After getting up in the morning, Shen Xinran was about to go to Wei's house for dinner when she saw Wei Ping'an riding over on his bicycle. He smiled at her and said, "Mingzhu, I'm here to pick you up."
The young man was riding a bicycle, his laughter was sunny and his lazy hair was fluttering in the wind. If you ignore the bruises under Wei Ping'an's eyes, this would be a very beautiful picture.
Shen Xinran frowned and asked, "You didn't sleep all night last night? Just to practice driving?"
Wei Ping'an leaned his bicycle against the wall and smiled, "I just wanted to ride my bike to give you a ride earlier!"
Shen Xinran raised an eyebrow, "Are you sure you don't want to show off early?"
Wei Pingan: "..."
Is this the kind of person he is in her heart? Well, he really is!
Wei Pingan patted the back seat and changed the subject: "Come on up, mom and dad are waiting!"
Shen Xinran glanced at Wei Ping'an and smiled without saying a word. She silently sat in the back seat and hugged Wei Ping'an's waist.
As Shen Xinran approached, Wei Ping'an's heartbeat began to accelerate. He swallowed hard and said with a red face, "Hold on tight, I'm going to start riding!"
Shen Xinran nodded and said, "Hmm." The young man's feelings were like the sunshine in early summer, bright and pure.
Watching Wei Ping'an carrying Shen Xinran away, Zhao Yutong frowned and said, "I really don't know what Li Mingzhu was thinking. She actually chose to marry a country bumpkin."
Ye Xiaoying, who was also standing by, pouted and said, "Wei Ping'an isn't even a peasant. He's just a small-time thug. Without his parents, he'd be nothing."
Liu Qian was also chatting with Chen Yan. "I heard that this bicycle was bought by Li Mingzhu for Wei Ping'an. I don't know what kind of magic potion Wei Ping'an gave Li Mingzhu..."
Thanks to Wei Ping'an's publicity, everyone in the brigade knew that he had a bicycle, which was bought for him by his girlfriend.
Many villagers laughed at Wei Ping'an's lack of success, but at the same time shed tears of envy. Why hadn't they met such a good partner?
But Wei Ping'an told everyone that if they wanted to ride a bicycle, they could find him and it would cost 20 cents to ride a lap.
Two cents is not a small amount, but it is not much either. In order to satisfy their vanity, the villagers came to Wei Ping'an to borrow his car.
This resulted in Wei Ping'an earning 30 yuan in just one month, almost as much as a worker's salary.
Shen Xinran was completely unaware of this. She only knew that Wei Ping'an had become quite rich recently and bought her delicious food every now and then.
Until that day, Wei Rong heard about Wei Ping'an making money with his bicycle. When he got home, the first thing he did was to find Wei Ping'an and curse him, "You dare to take money when the situation is so tense!"
Wei Ping'an had just picked a cucumber from the field and was about to share it with Shen Xinran. He had just washed the cucumber when he saw Wei Rong come in. He frowned, "I don't accept money from just anyone. I also look at relationships and character."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Wei Pingsheng and said with a smile: "You said so, brother!"
Wei Pingsheng was stunned at first, then nodded.
Wei Rong reacted instantly. His face turned red with anger, and he gasped heavily, "How dare you even betray your own eldest brother!"
Wei Pingan shrugged. "I charge 20 cents for outsiders. If my eldest and second brothers want to ride, I only charge 10 cents. Ask my eldest brother if they enjoy riding."
Upon hearing this, Wei Rong's fury shot up to the top of his head. He glanced around, then picked up his carrying pole and struck Wei Ping'an, cursing, "You really value money over your life!"
Wei Pingan first broke the cucumber in half and gave half to Shen Xinran before he started running. He kept shouting as he ran: "The captain killed someone, the captain killed someone."
Shen Xinran glanced at the cucumber in her hand, then at Wei Ping'an, who was eating the cucumber while running. She suddenly felt that the road to transforming the male protagonist was long and arduous.
…
Wei Ping'an often asks for leave for Shen Xinran and takes her to the town to play. After a long time, it is inevitable that people will gossip about her.
But before Shen Xinran even heard any of this, Wu Chunhua scolded her back. "Even if my daughter-in-law doesn't work, I'll still support her. If anyone is unhappy, let them come to me."
Wu Chunhua's overbearing remarks left the villagers speechless and caused a great uproar in the educated youth compound, with many young women considering finding a husband in the countryside.
But there are still clear-headed people. Not every female educated youth is Li Mingzhu, and not every mother-in-law is Wu Chunhua.
That night, while everyone was asleep, Wu Chunhua took out her savings and counted them, a total of 1,352.
She turned to look at Wei Rong and asked, "Think of that bicycle as Mingzhu's dowry. What can we bring back?"
Wei Rong took a puff of his pipe and sighed, "Nowadays, people in the city are very particular about the three turns and one ring. You can arrange it accordingly, just don't exceed the eldest and second eldest families by too much."
Wu Chunhua nodded. "She already has a bicycle, and a radio is too impractical. I'll let her choose between a watch and a sewing machine!"
The next morning at dinner, Wu Chunhua brought up the matter in front of everyone. "Mingzhu, do you want a watch or a sewing machine?"
As Wu Chunhua finished speaking, Shen Xinran felt that the eyes of Wei Dasao and Wei Ersao were on him.
In the plot, Li Mingzhu had long since run out of money, but the Wei family still gave her enough face and let her choose between a watch and a sewing machine as a betrothal gift.
Li Mingzhu doesn't know how to make clothes, so she chose a watch. Although Wei Dasao and Wei Ersao didn't say it on the surface, they still had a lot of thoughts about Li Mingzhu in their hearts.
Shen Xinran smiled and said, "A watch can only be used by one person, so I'd better choose a sewing machine, which can be used by everyone."
After Shen Xinran finished speaking, Wu Chunhua gave her a satisfied look, because she also felt that watches were not practical and wanted Shen Xinran to choose a sewing machine.
Wu Chunhua picked up a piece of food for Shen Xinran and said with a smile, "Eat quickly. I'll go find someone to exchange tickets for you in the next two days. Once I get the tickets, I'll take you to buy a sewing machine."
Shen Xinran smiled and nodded, "Okay, thank you, auntie."
After finishing his meal, Shen Xinran headed towards his work place.
Wei Pingan followed behind Shen Xinran, deep in thought. In his opinion, Shen Xinran should prefer watches, so why would she choose a sewing machine?
Wei Pingan, who couldn't figure it out, walked directly to Shen Xinran and asked, "Is the watch bad?"
Shen Xinran glanced at Wei Ping'an and smiled shyly, "It's because the watch is good, so I want to wait until you have money and ask you to buy it for me."
The girl's smile was like a bud about to bloom, shy and charming. Wei Pingan was fascinated and promised: "Okay, when I have money, I will buy you a watch."
Shen Xinran's eyes curved, and her pupils were like black crystals immersed in water, black and bright. "Since you said that, I'm waiting for you to buy me a watch."
Looking at Shen Xinran's leaving back, Wei Ping'an was stunned where he was. What had he just agreed to?
It seems like buying a watch for Mingzhu.
But where does he get so much money to buy a watch?
What a headache! Wei Pingan scratched his hair. If he had known, he would not have agreed so quickly!
