In the afternoon, it was not just Shen Chuning sharing and other accountants listening and taking notes, but everyone discussed together.
The atmosphere of the discussion was also very lively.
Although people in this era are relatively poor both materially and spiritually, they are not lacking in the spirit of learning and progress.
Everyone is like a blade of grass rooted in the soil, striving to absorb sunlight and rain and grow upwards.
When I got off work, Lin Shulan came to pick me up with a donkey cart as usual.
But today there were two more people riding the donkey cart, in addition to Peng Kaiyuan, there was also He Guoqiang.
The donkey cart first took Peng Kaiyuan to the foot of the mountain of Xiaohe Village Brigade. She originally planned to take her teacher home by herself, but when the donkey cart arrived at the foot of the mountain, Xiaohe Village Brigade had already sent someone to pick up Peng Kaiyuan.
She also considered her current physical condition and did not insist.
Then, the donkey cart took He Guoqiang back to the He family.
As soon as He Guoqiang entered the house today, he seemed particularly happy and called Aunt He, "Hongmei, add some good dishes tonight and call Boss Shen over to have a drink together."
Deng Hongmei came out of the kitchen and saw He Guoqiang's wrinkled face from laughing. She couldn't help but say, "You old man, weren't you looking down on me a few days ago? Why do you have to prepare delicious food and invite people over for drinks after a trip to the commune?"
He Guoqiang smiled and said: "The girl from the Shen family has great potential. Zhou Yubai has been promoted to group leader before he was 30, so he is also very promising.
In the future, the Shen family will be well supported by the two of them. Although Boss Shen doesn't seem to have much ability now, he is an honest, hardworking man. If our daughter marries him, her future life will be good. ”
Deng Hongmei couldn't help teasing her husband, "You are such a snob. A few days ago, you were disgusted with Shen Laoer because of his affairs, and now you are thinking about canceling the engagement!
Now that you hear that someone's son-in-law has been promoted and you think that someone's daughter is capable, you change your attitude again? ”
He Guoqiang glared at Deng Hongmei. "I told you that you have long hair but little knowledge. What do you mean by snobbish? Who am I judging the situation for?
Isn't it for our family, so that our son and daughter can have a good future? ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Deng Hongmei didn't argue with the old man. "I'll go get some green peppers and fry some eggs tonight."
Shen Chu Ning did not return to his own home at this time, but went to Shen's house first.
She was still somewhat worried about her second brother's affairs.
Not only is my second brother worried, but also Li Xiaolan.
Li Xiaolan jumped into the river because of what the villagers said. She was really worried that after they and the Li family arranged her marriage with her second brother, Li Xiaolan would agree on the surface but then secretly seek death.
But my second brother was not at home.
She could only ask her eldest brother about the situation at the Li family.
Shen Zhengxu was also a little confused and worried, and sighed and said: “Dad said that when he and the second brother went to the Li family to discuss marriage, Li Xiaolan didn’t have a room to meet people, so he only agreed to let your second brother go into the room to talk to her.
After your second brother came out of her room, when Aunt Zhao entered the room again, Li Xiaolan said she agreed. She also took the initiative to say that she only wanted 20 yuan as a betrothal gift, and there was no need to hold a wedding banquet. She just needed to pick a day, pack up her bedding and clothes, and come back with your second brother. ”
Shen Chuning frowned and thought about it. She still had to find a chance to talk to Li Xiaolan.
When her father and second brother went to propose marriage, she did not ask to go with them because she was worried that her going would provoke Li Xiaolan to do something extreme again.
But she really didn't want to see her and her second brother get married in such a muddle-headed way and then become a pair of resentful lovers.
A husband and wife should share the joys and sorrows. If their hearts are not in the same place, the long decades of life will not be easy to endure.
After leaving the Shen family, Shen Chuning first went back to his own home to get a bag of about five kilograms of rice, and then took a piece of bacon and went to Lin Shulan and the others.
Everyone's food rations are limited, and she has to eat at her parents-in-law's place all the time. If she eats and drinks for free for a long time, even if her parents-in-law have no objection, her two brothers and sisters-in-law will not agree.
So she would bring some food, eggs, meat and so on over every now and then.
This way, her two brothers and sisters-in-law won't gossip about her because she's having dinner at her parents-in-law's house.
Shen Chu Ning was holding something and was about to enter the Zhou family's courtyard when she was stopped by a voice, "Ning Ning."
Shen Chuning turned around and saw Shen Zhengliang running over from the educated youth point.
She frowned subconsciously.
“Ningning, I have something to discuss with you.” Shen Zhengliang looked at Shen Chuning, and although there was some guilt in his eyes, his tone was firm.
“Second brother, wait for me.” Shen Chuning said to Shen Zhengliang, and carried the food and bacon to her parents-in-law first. She couldn’t talk while carrying such heavy things.
When Shen Chuning came out again, she took Shen Zhengliang directly back to her yard.
“Second brother, just say what you want to say.” Shen Chuning looked at Shen Zhengliang with a pair of dark eyes.
In fact, just by seeing that Shen Zhengliang came out from the educated youth center, she could roughly guess what Shen Zhengliang was going to say.
Sure enough, the next moment, Shen Zhengliang said, "Ningning, you said before that if I get married, I must have that jade pendant as a gift. You can give it to me, right?"
Even though Shen Chu Ning was mentally prepared, when she heard her second brother make this request, she couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Her eyes were slightly red, and she tried hard to hold back the tears that were about to flow out of her eyes. She nodded and said, "Okay."
After saying that, she walked straight outside as she had to go to her parents-in-law's house for dinner.
She walked to the door and heard her second brother's voice behind her, "Ningning, I'm sorry."
The tears she had been holding back came bursting out.
She paused and wiped away her tears.
It's only when the boomerang falls on you that you feel the pain.
In that dream, she was like her second brother. She knew clearly that asking for those things from her father and brothers would cause them harm, but for her own sake, she still asked them for them.
She endured it and thought it was her retribution!
After she calmed down, she couldn't help but turn around and ask Chen Zhengliang, "After giving the jade pendant to Wang Zhiqing, you can get married and live in peace, right?"
Shen Zhengliang's eyes were full of guilt, but he still nodded gently.
"You came to see Wang Yumeng again. Does Li Xiaolan know? Will she still live a good life with you after she knows?" Shen Chuning asked again.
Shen Zhengliang raised a bitter smile at the corner of his lips, looked at Shen Chuning and said, “She knows, she won’t care.”
Seeing his second brother like this, Shen Chuning couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart. What kind of evil fate was this?
She bit her lip and said, "Okay, I got it. Second brother, come see me next time you have a day off. I gave the jade pendant to Brother Yubai. I will give it to you when Brother Yubai comes back."
