I have to say, this reason is very sufficient.
Because that’s what most people do now.
There is no way. Nowadays, every household has a large population, but there are not so many houses. If the children are separated, where will they live?
Are we going to let them sleep on the streets?
Thinking of this, Li Xu scratched his head and asked, "How does she accommodate so many people in her family?"
Du Ming continued, explaining, "They have more than ten houses. They can still accommodate us now, but we may not be sure about that in the future."
Li Xu understood what he meant. He meant that they could live in the house now if they squeezed together, but after the male members of Li Qingxi's generation got married and had children, the house would not be big enough.
Then he smacked his lips and said, "In that case, her family's conditions are pretty good."
After all, how can an ordinary family afford to build more than ten houses?
Even if there are a lot of laborers at home, the money earned from farm work may not even be enough for normal expenses, let alone building a house.
"That's true, but this is all forced. Think about it, there are so many people in the family, and they need money everywhere. How can they not find a way to make money?"
It seems that Li Qingxi's family's way of getting rich is to sell agricultural and sideline products at the market.
However, this path will not last for a few years, and then their family will have a hard time.
Thinking of this, Li Xu asked again, "Aunt Yang, what exactly are your plans?"
Yang Li glanced at Du Feng, shook her head and said, "I don't know. Let's see what the second brother thinks first."
Du Feng covered his head with his hands, showing a painful expression, "I don't know either."
He wanted to marry Li Qingxi, but was afraid of being dragged down by her family.
So for a moment I really didn’t know what to do.
Seeing him like this, Li Xu hesitated and said, "Have you talked to her family? Didn't Aunt Yang just say that many girls in her family are married? Could it be that their partners are not afraid of trouble?"
Hearing this, Du Feng's eyes lit up, and even the pain on his face dissipated a lot. "Yeah, why didn't we think of it, Dad, Mom, how about we go again tomorrow?"
Du Ming and the other man looked at each other, both showing helpless expressions. "Okay, let's go again tomorrow."
Yang Li then explained, "After we found out about her family's situation today, I felt confused and came back directly. I really didn't expect so much."
Li Xu: ...
It’s because I didn’t expect that you would have to go there again tomorrow. It’s really troublesome.
Thinking of Du Feng's reaction just now, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Feng, if her family dares to give a guarantee, are you sure you want to marry her?"
"Sure." Du Feng answered affirmatively.
Li Xu quickly looked at Du Ming and his wife and found that they had no reaction, which seemed to indicate their agreement.
So he bowed and said, "Then I wish Brother Feng to marry his beautiful lady soon."
Hearing this, Du Feng was so happy that his back teeth were almost showing, but he said, "Don't say that, she hasn't even started dating yet. Besides, she's not really pretty, she looks like an ordinary person."
Seeing his insincere look, everyone burst into laughter.
After eating a melon, Li Xu's sad mood was greatly relieved. He chatted for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.
Early in the morning.
Li Xu came to the supply and marketing cooperative and set out again to transport supplies.
The other side is more interesting.
After breakfast, Du Ming and his wife each rode their bicycles to their workplace to ask for leave.
Then he went back home to get the prepared gifts, picked up Du Ming and rode to the Xiawan Brigade.
It took them more than half an hour to reach their destination.
Seeing that there were many people working in the fields, Du Feng excitedly went up to a middle-aged man and asked, "Uncle, do you know where Li Qingxi's family members are working?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment. "Who is Li Qingxi? I don't think there is such a person in our team?"
"It's Li Daya. She has more than 30 brothers and sisters."
Hearing the name, the man looked at the two bicycles behind Du Feng and asked with a smile, "I see. Yesterday they said that a few city people came to the team to ask around about the Li family. I think it was you, right?"
Without waiting for Du Feng to reply, Du Ming quickly pulled him aside, took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to him, and replied with a smile on his face,
"It's us. My son saw a girl named Li Qingxi in the city a few days ago and fell in love with her at first sight. We came here yesterday to inquire about her family situation. After listening to her, we were quite satisfied, so we came here today with gifts and wanted to discuss the marriage of our two children with her family."
As soon as these words came out, the man who had just taken the cigarette stopped suddenly and said blankly, "You are not kidding, are you? With their family's conditions, you can still feel satisfied?"
"Of course, my family has three stable jobs and one of us is a soldier, so we don't need that little money. As long as the girl has good character and her family is reasonable, then there will be no problem."
The man was just envious when he heard the first half of the sentence, but when he heard that there were soldiers in the Du family, he was in awe and showed a warm smile on his face, "Oh, so you are military dependents. I am really neglectful. Wait a minute, I will talk to the scorekeeper and then take you to find Old Man Li and the others."
After saying that, he ran away quickly without waiting for Du Ming to reply.
At this time, Du Ming said to Du Feng, "Your eldest brother has lived for more than 20 years and has not done anything good, but he joined the army and made others respect us. Just based on this point, I can't say he is bad;
The same goes for you, kid. Even though you haven't done anything good, as long as you can get married and have children as soon as possible, and fulfill my heart's desire, I won't say anything bad about you either."
Du Feng curled his lips, "You often say at home that Big Brother is a real worry."
Hearing this, Du Ming reached out and slapped him, saying angrily, "You bastard, who did you learn this nonsense from? Have I ever mentioned him at home?"
The reason why he didn't like to mention his eldest son was because he would get angry whenever he mentioned him, and he was also a little afraid of the face that looked very similar to his father.
Du Feng covered the place where he was hit and said, "You haven't mentioned Big Brother yet, so how can you say anything bad about him? Even if I get married and have children, I will still be around you all day. Will you not say anything bad about me then?"
Du Ming gritted his teeth and said, "You little bastard, we're out here now. I'll save some face for you. We'll settle this when we get home."
At this time, Yang Li came over and said to the two, "What are you two doing? I wonder what you are here for today?"
"I know, but I think this kid may not know it." Du Ming looked at Du Feng with a forced smile and answered.
