Chapter 72 Just for Fun
In this life, she believed that she had the ability to have the best of both worlds.
Huo Qingyu was also a man who knew how to deal with things and talk. In front of his brother-in-law, he laughed and scolded his sister, saying, "Girls really can't stay at home when they grow up! You forget your parents' home after you get married. You haven't been back to the city for several years. Don't you miss home at all? Don't you miss your classmates?"
Huo Qingqing held Han Jianwu's arm and said, "No, I have a husband and two lovely babies! No one wants to."
Huo Qingyu pointed at Huo Qingqing and said to Han Jianwu, "Listen, what a white-eyed wolf."
Han Jianwu asked, "If Qingqing brings the child home to visit relatives, does she also need to go through the procedures for entering the city?"
Huo Qingyu didn't know all this, as his parents had already joined the army before the accident. Huo Qingqing said, "Of course, it's quite troublesome. Forget it, let's talk about it later!" She knew how dirty and messy the green train was at that time, and it was too unsafe to take two such young children on the train.
Huo Qingyu, "Okay, I'll just convey what the old man and mother said. It's up to you whether you go back or not." After he finished speaking, he patted Han Jianwu's shoulder and said, "When you are free, can you accompany them home to visit?"
Han Jianwu said, okay.
Huo Qingqing and Han Jianwu took their child to see Huo Qingyu off, and met Zhao Linfeng and several educated youth who were preparing to go to the county town at the commune.
When they heard that Huo Qingyu was Huo Qingqing's second brother, the educated youth became extremely enthusiastic. Zhao Linfeng leaned over to Huo Qingqing's ear and whispered, "Your second brother is so handsome, does he have a girlfriend?"
Huo Qingqing stared into Zhao Linfeng's eyes, "Are you attracted to my second brother?"
Zhao Linfeng, "Uh! I'm just asking!"
Huo Qingqing, "What's the big deal? If you like me, I'll help you guys get together?"
Zhao Linfeng shook his head, "Forget it! I am just a village girl from Guanshan Commune. Your second brother is the sun in the sky, how could he like me? A young officer like him, with a good family background and good looks, will definitely look for a city girl with a job. I'd better forget it!"
Huo Qingqing curled her lips, "Come on! You must have someone you like, right?" Huo Qingqing didn't know Zhao Linfeng very well, but she knew that she was a very picky and opinionated girl. How could she feel ashamed of herself? There is only one possibility, that she has someone she likes, and it is probably related to Jiang Zian. This is what she speculated based on her previous life.
There was no sign of the second brother and his wife again. It was estimated that Baojuan was not destined to be so rich. After all, Jiang Zian's current conditions were extremely poor in the eyes of the local people. After all, the second brother is a cadre of the brigade and he has to maintain his reputation. His daughter was picky and finally married the poorest man in the brigade. It is estimated that he did not have a penny for the bride price and had to pay for it himself. That’s not all. Jiang Zian’s family background was not good.
Han Jianwu sent Huo Qingyu to the train station. Huo Qingqing took her baby and Baojuan to the supply and marketing cooperative for a stroll. This time when her second brother came, Huo Qingqing's wallet was fatter again. She brought a lot of money and bills, and also brought a camera. After buying some things, Huo Qingqing said to Baojuan, "Let's go to your fourth uncle's snack bar to eat something before going back!"
Today Jiang Zian opened the two stores alone.
Baojuan hesitated again and again and said, "Aunt, I don't want to go."
Huo Qingqing, "Don't want to see Jiang Zian? He doesn't know about these things. These are all things we talked about in private and only our two families know about them."
Baojuan shook her head, "Forget it, let's go back!"
Huo Qingqing sighed, "Okay. Tell me the truth, what do you think?"
Baojuan also sighed and said, "What can we country girls think? Who doesn't want to change something by getting married? But most girls live worse after getting married than in their parents' home! My father and mother are right to worry, so I'd better listen to them!
Aunt, I know you are good to me, but I am different from you. Jiang Zian does not have the ability and courage like my fourth uncle to let me live a good life. ”
Huo Qingqing, "Okay, let's stop here! I won't talk about this person anymore."
The eldest brother's daughter-in-law was chosen correctly, and her parents' family kept her in the Han family that same day. The Han brothers and the eldest nephew sent food to the girl's family in a horse-drawn carriage, and the daughter-in-law was considered to be married.
Boss Han plans to hold his son's wedding on the 18th day of the first lunar month.
Hanjiagou is still very lively in the first month of the lunar year, with people going on blind dates, gatekeepers getting engaged, and getting married. There are happy events every day.
The traditional entertainment in Hanjiagou during the Lantern Festival is the community fire, which is performed by horses during the day and by walking at night.
The educated youth who went home to celebrate the Spring Festival also came back one after another. During the Lantern Festival, the educated youth compound had their own entertainment, which was singing and dancing. Some people even brought musical instruments.
The brigade decided to organize a program competition for the members and educated youth, and the time was set for the day before the Lantern Festival, which was the 40th day of the first lunar month. Because the commune also had competitions on the Lantern Festival, the young people from each brigade would participate in a community fire competition, and the educated youth from each brigade would participate in a singing competition.
The educated youth from Hanjiagou approached Huo Qingqing several times and invited her to participate, but Huo Qingqing refused.
Han Jianwu said, "If you want to go out and play, go ahead! I have nothing to do these few days, so I'll stay at home and take care of the kids."
Huo Qingqing shook her head, "No, I'd better be their audience!"
The commune was very lively on the Lantern Festival, and Han Jianwu's two shops were so busy that he was unable to cope with the business.
Huo Qingqing originally planned to let Han Jianwu look after the baby in the store while she went to join in the fun and cheer for the educated youth from Hanjiagou! In the end, no one went to watch the game, and they all stayed in the store to take care of the kids and make money.
By the time the event ended in the afternoon and the market was dispersed, the items in the stores were basically sold out, and the ingredients in the snack bar were also sold out. They cooked for themselves and planned to go home after eating, but two more guests came, Zhao Linfeng and Liang Li.
"Qingqing, why didn't you watch our performance?" Zhao Linfeng asked as soon as he entered the door.
Huo Qingqing, "The store was too busy. It was unsafe for me to take care of two kids by myself, so I simply didn't go. I heard that Miss Zhao won the championship today?"
Zhao Linfeng: "It's all just a concession from everyone."
Liang Li said, "Just wait and see! Our Miss Zhao has shown off her wealth this time. I guess starting tomorrow, these love letters will start to float to our farm like snowflakes."
Zhao Linfeng, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Liang Li, "I'm not talking nonsense, Qingqing. You didn't go to the scene today, but you didn't see the scene. When Zhao Linfeng opened her mouth, the educated youths from all the brigades cheered like a tsunami. I've heard several boys say they want to pursue her."
"Liang Li, do you believe that I sewed your mouth?"
Liang Li covered her mouth, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything! Why are you so fierce?"
Huo Qingqing felt that Liang Li was talking a lot today, and that she was being deliberate, so she asked her, "Did you say that about Zhao Linfeng on purpose?"
Liang Li stole a glance at Zhao Linfeng who was playing with the child, and whispered, "Of course, Zhao Linfeng is interested in the guy in your store, I just said it on purpose for your guy to hear.
Zhao Linfeng didn't know what was wrong with him to tease a child? I never thought about the consequences.
This is no joke. If nothing unexpected happens, Lin Feng will return to the city next month. Do you think she is crazy? ”
Huo Qingqing comforted Liang Li, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
