Ruan Xiangxiang sighed visibly and said, "Grandma, my mother doesn't know that I'm dating someone. She said she has found someone to marry me. But what good family can my mother find? Either from our village or from the next village. Anyway, it's a rural guy."
These were the only people her mother could get in touch with. Not to mention the sons of leaders in the city, even ordinary workers in the city were not necessarily approachable.
"If I marry into a family like this, the most I can get is a dowry. The dowry is kept by my parents, and I can't get a penny." Ruan Xiangxiang said deliberately. If she can't get the dowry, her grandmother can't get it either.
"But Brother Liu is different. Although he is an educated youth now, he can't stay in the village for long. He will be able to return to the city soon. Once he returns to the city, it will be completely different."
"I am just his girlfriend now, so I cannot follow him when he returns to the city. But if I marry him, I can follow him when he returns to the city."
"That's the capital. It's the most prosperous place in the country. Grandma, if Liu Zhiqing and I can get together, I can follow him to the capital. When the time comes, I will take you there to enjoy the good life. Not to mention the Xiangyang Brigade, even if we add the Qingshan Brigade and the Hongqi Brigade next door, no old lady can go to the capital to retire. When the time comes, grandma, you will be the only one."
Ruan Xiangxiang's words were heartfelt, and the pie she drew was fragrant and round.
It was obvious that Old Mrs. Ruan ate the cake.
Old Lady Ruan took it to heart. She really had never enjoyed herself well in her life. If she could go to the capital to retire, then her life would not be lived in vain.
Observing Old Mrs. Ruan's expression, Ruan Xiangxiang knew that this matter was most likely done.
As long as her grandmother clearly supports her, her mother won't be able to cause any trouble.
"Grandma, if Brother Liu comes to visit tomorrow, shouldn't we prepare some good food or something? This way, we won't lose face for our family. Besides, if we take good care of him in the village now, he will take good care of us when he returns to the city. This is what you call reciprocity, right?"
Yes, their family is small, if you help more now, you will get more rewards in the future.
"Tell your mother later and ask her to prepare some delicious food to entertain your partner tomorrow."
"Grandma, my mom..." Ruan Xiangxiang hesitated, "What can I say to my mom? She has already found someone to be engaged to."
Old Lady Ruan thought about it and realized that the little girl would definitely not be able to talk to the second son's wife. "Well, go call your mother over and I'll talk to her."
"Thank you, grandma!" Ruan Xiangxiang was overjoyed.
Today was a very smooth day for her. Everything she expected was accomplished.
The opportunity is in her hands, and she will definitely seize it.
——————
Ruan Mianmian's efficiency in reading and doing exercises today was not very high. She was always feeling irritated.
It seems that Liu Shixian's influence on her is not easy to eliminate, she can only try her best to control herself.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the yard door.
She waited for a while, but didn't hear Da Huang's call, so she got up and went out to open the door.
If it was a stranger knocking on the door, Da Huang would have barked when he heard it. Da Huang didn't make a sound, so it was probably someone he knew and was familiar with.
Ruan Mianmian guessed it was Qin Zheng.
Sure enough, when I opened the door, I saw Qin Zheng standing at the door with a large sack in his hand.
The setting sun was behind him, and the afterglow was on his body. It was so beautiful that it was a bit unfair.
Ruan Mianmian was stunned for a moment.
Qin Zheng stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, and Ruan Mianmian came back to her senses. She smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh, it's you. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Qin Zheng picked up the sack in his hand and pointed it at her, saying, "I'm here to deliver food to Da Huang."
After saying that, he didn't wait for Ruan Mianmian's response and walked sideways into the yard.
Ruan Mianmian had no choice but to close the gate and follow them in.
The dog, who was tied up in the yard, was very excited when he saw Qin Zheng coming. He raised his front legs and pounced on him. But his neck was tied with a rope.
Qin Zheng walked over and touched Da Huang's head, and Da Huang licked it wildly with his tongue.
It can be seen that their relationship is really good.
After petting the dog for a while, Qin Zheng carried the sack he brought to the kitchen and said to Ruan Mianmian, "This is the food I prepared for Da Huang. You only need to feed it once a day. If it eats too much, you have to take it out to digest the food. It's very troublesome."
If Dahuang could speak, he would definitely curse. Do you want to listen to what you are saying?
What a pity, it can’t open its mouth and can only bark.
Almost every dog in the village is skinny, and some can't even afford a meal a day. Da Huang's treatment is already very good.
Although not fat and strong, at least it looks like a normal dog.
Ruan Mianmian walked forward, unbuttoned the sack, and took things out one by one.
There were bags of rice, bundles of noodles, dried meat, and at the bottom there were processed and chopped bones.
Ruan Mianmian looked at Qin Zheng and asked, "Are you sure this is the food for Da Huang?"
Qin Zheng's eyes flickered. He didn't expect Ruan Mianmian to dismantle things in front of him. He couldn't stop her from doing that.
After a long while, he said, "You can cook and eat it first, and you can feed it the leftovers."
I don't know if Da Huang understood it, but it whimpered at the kitchen door, looking a little aggrieved.
Ruan Mianmian stared at Qin Zheng, looking up from his chest, little by little, until finally her eyes met his.
She pursed her lips and looked at him for a long time before she said, "Qin Zheng, do you like me?"
Although it was a question, the tone was very affirmative.
Ruan Mianmian recalled every detail of her acquaintance with Qin Zheng and thought about all the help he had given her.
She really couldn't shamelessly pretend not to see or understand.
She knew clearly that she couldn't respond to anyone's feelings right now, so she chose to speak frankly instead of being ambiguous.
Qin Zheng was really good to her. Even if she didn't like him, she couldn't let him be taken advantage of.
She cannot follow the three principles of not taking the initiative, not refusing, and not taking responsibility.
So she chose to make it clear.
Qin Zheng was confused.
He looked at Ruan Mianmian, not knowing where to look. He also didn't know what he should say.
