"The agreed time is too long?"

Gu Yue looked at her and said, "It's the thirty-year-old one."

Song Chu then remembered that she had previously taken the initiative to suggest that if they both still hadn't found someone they liked and hadn't gotten married by the age of 30, they could just live together.

She chuckled, "That's right, at thirty you're an old man, and I'm an old girl."

People get married relatively early in this era. In the village, men and women can get married when they are over 16 years old. If they are not married in their twenties, it will definitely seem strange and people will talk about them behind their backs.

Unlike modern times, there are plenty of single older men and women.

"Then why don't we shorten the time?" She looked back at Gu Yue.

Gu Yue felt his palms sweating, and asked nervously, "When do you think it's a good time?"

Song Chu thought about it, tilted his head and said, "How about graduating from college?"

Gu Yue: “…” He didn’t even know when he could go to college, let alone graduate. It felt like the time was so long.

"In two years, I can go to college." Song Chu added, "Besides, I'm not an adult yet."

She is only nearly eighteen years old now.

Gu Yue has always believed in her words, although he doesn't know why she is so sure that she can go to college in two years.

He calculated that he would go to college in two years and graduate from college in another four years, so wouldn't that mean it would take more than six years? So he tried to ask, "How about we use the time when we get into college as the starting point?"

If he had to wait for more than two years, he could still afford it, as Song Chu would be around 20 years old by then.

Although Song Chu had never been in a relationship before, he was not a novice.

She tried to ask: "Gu Xueshen, do you want to date me directly after you get into college?"

In this day and age, being in a relationship is called being in a relationship, so she just fits in.

Gu Yue's palms were sweating even more, but he didn't avoid it and nodded seriously: "Yes, I think we are quite compatible and relaxed in terms of our values ​​and getting along with each other. I think it should be good to be together."

Song Chu raised his eyebrows at Gu Yue: "I don't know who said before that he only wanted to have a pure gay relationship with me."

Gu Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "That was you in the past."

Song Chu's heart skipped a beat, "What do you mean by to my former self?"

"Before when you chased after me, I not only didn't feel anything, but was annoyed."

He thought for a moment and continued to speak truthfully: "But later, because of the mudslide, I felt it was easy to get along with you. I no longer felt the annoyance of avoiding you. Instead, I felt very happy."

"So I don't want to be associated with you. I'm only targeting you in the past, but the person I'm with is targeting you now."

"I don't know why I have this feeling of wanting to separate, but this is my true feeling." He always felt that the Song Chu of the past and the Song Xiaochu of the present were like two different people.

The one who attracted him was Song Xiaochu.

Song Chu understood what he meant, which was that even though they had had very little interaction in the past, he still felt the difference.

He clearly wanted to be with the real her.

This made Song Chu feel that he was recognized and cherished.

"Okay!" In fact, during this period of time, she also felt that she could talk to Gu Yue very well, and they were very relaxed and happy. No matter in which aspect, this was the man with whom she had the best tacit understanding that she had ever met in her past and present life.

So let's give each other a chance.

Gu Yue was about to say something, but when he heard this word, he was stunned for a moment, and then his heart suddenly blossomed, "Then it's a deal, you can't go back on your word."

Song Chu raised his hand, chuckled and asked, "Do you want to pinky promise?"

Gu Yue immediately raised his hand and shook her pinky promise, "Yes."

Gu Yue sent Song Chu to the door of the widow's house. After watching her enter the house, he turned around and went back to Uncle Li's house.

The next morning, as soon as a light appeared in the sky, Song Chu got up, washed and went out.

When she opened the door, she saw a figure leaning against a tree not far away. She recognized who it was at a glance.

"Gu Xueshen, why are you here so early?" She walked over.

Gu Yue smiled and said, "You woke up early, so I came here to wait for you."

Actually, he couldn't sleep last night.

"Let's go." Song Chu nodded.

The two walked to the farm gate and looked around to make sure there was no one there. Then Gu Yue took out all the things he had bought previously.

When we entered the farm, Father Gu and Brother Gu had already gotten up and were waiting with Gu Jin.

It wasn't mentioned last night, but Gu Yue said he would come early, so they were already prepared to separate.

In order not to disturb others' rest, the two of them pulled Gu Jin and waited near the gate.

"Dad, big brother." Gu Yue went in carrying something, "These are the daily necessities and food I bought for you. I was afraid that the old captain and the others would see them, so I kept them in the car."

Mr. Gu and the other man took it and said, "Well, we'll take it."

Gu Yue picked up another pocket and said, "This is the down jacket that Song Chu asked her mother to make for you. It will keep you warmer than a cotton coat in winter."

Father Gu and Brother Gu were both stunned. They obviously didn't expect Song Chu to prepare such a practical gift for them.

The winters here are quite cold, and Mr. Gu fell ill last year due to the cold.

"Xiao Song, you are so thoughtful. Thank you for your gift." Father Gu took the pocket.

Brother Gu also smiled and said, "Yes, thank you, Xiao Song."

The younger brother is so lucky to meet a good girl like Song Chu, and they are happy for him.

Song Chu smiled and said, "Uncle, big brother, you're welcome. It's just a piece of cake."

Then she half-knelt down and looked at Gu Jin, whose face was wrinkled and sad about the departure. "In a few months, I will bring you back to see grandpa and dad."

Gu Jin's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Song Chu stretched out his hand and pinched his little face, "Of course it's true, I never lie."

Father Gu and Brother Gu were stunned.

Seeing this, Gu Yue explained, "Next year our county will come to participate in the import and export fair here, and we will be able to find time to visit you again."

"Okay, if you have the chance, you can bring Xiao Jin here." Father Gu was very reluctant to let his grandson go.

Brother Gu squatted down and hugged his son. "Xiao Jin, after you go back with your uncle and Aunt Chuchu, you must be obedient and come to see us when you grow taller."

Gu Jin hugged his father's neck and sobbed as he said, "I, I will be very good. Dad and Grandpa will also eat well and grow taller."

"Yeah, dad and grandpa can do it too." Brother Gu's eyes instantly turned red, but he held back his tears.

Although he has experienced so many hardships in life, he is very grateful to God for having such a well-behaved and sensible son.

For the sake of his son, he will also live a good life.
