"Puh!" After experiencing the incident where Li Xiaolan was provoked to the point of jumping into the river, Zhao Xiuying would not tolerate these troublemakers. She just spat and started scolding them.
Li Xiangyang quickly stopped the man, but he didn't give Li Jianmin a good look and said, "Li Jianmin, you are so concerned about whether our Xiaolan's wedding banquet is decent or not, so what, as an uncle, do you plan to give 10 or 20 yuan?
Today is the eldest son of the Shen family getting married. Uncle Shen gave ten dollars and an iron kettle as a gift, and Uncle He also gave five dollars and a pair of enamel pots with the pattern of Double Happiness! ”
Li Jianmin was just drunk and unwilling to be scolded by a woman like Zhao Xiuying, so he used his status to put pressure on her.
Although his family and Li Xiangyang's family have the same ancestor, after so many generations, their relationship has long been beyond the fifth degree of kinship.
How could he possibly do such a big favor? Giving him a couple of cents would be considered good enough.
When Li Xiangyang asked him this, his face turned red with embarrassment. He just said, "You two are really a pair of glasses that fit your shape. You both don't know what's good for you," and then left angrily.
After everyone left, Zhao Xiuying quickly told Li Xiangyang, "Old man, you have to know the situation between our Xiaolan and Shen Laoer.
We should do whatever the two young people discuss. All we want is for Xiaolan to marry smoothly and live a stable life with Mr. Shen in the future.
You must not let others instigate you and then get carried away and think of unnecessary things, which will ruin the whole thing. ”
Li Xiangyang said sullenly, “I know, I want you, an old woman, to keep talking.”
After saying that, Li Xiangyang strode home.
Zhao Xiuying quickly chased after him.
A few days after Shen Zhengxu got married, when Lin Shulan came to pick up Shen Chuning from get off work, her face was full of joy.
"Mom, what's the good news? Are they slaughtering pigs in the village?" Shen Chuning asked after getting on the donkey cart.
Lin Shulan laughed and said, "How can that be possible? We can't kill the pigs until the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month. Only when our village has electricity!"
"Really?" Shen Chu Ning was also surprised when he heard it.
She has now collected some books and documents related to accounting and finance to study.
Although due to health reasons, she will not study overtime until late.
But it gets dark early, and she wants to study, so she has to light the kerosene lamp for a while at night.
Not only is the light from the kerosene lamp not very bright, it is also extremely inconvenient.
When the weather got cold, she wanted to put the small table on the bed and read and study in bed.
But the kerosene lamp was too far away and she couldn't see the words clearly. If it was too close to the bed, she was afraid it would catch fire accidentally.
So ever since she registered the number of andon lamps, she has been looking forward to having electricity.
Now it finally works.
Along the way, Lin Shulan was excitedly talking about how bright the light bulb was.
It was as if the whole room was lit with kerosene lamps, and everything was so clear.
When Shen Chu Ning got home, although it was not yet six o'clock, it was already dark. She pulled the light cord, and sure enough, the whole room was instantly bright.
Although she was very happy, she was not excited yet, after all, the commune had always used electricity.
Moreover, she had seen all kinds of electrical appliances in her dreams, so she was relatively calm when she saw the electric lights.
It was different for other people in the village. Everyone in the village was discussing how bright the light bulbs in their homes were and how magical electricity was.
Pull a rope from such a far distance, and when the rope is pulled, the light will light up "snap", just like a magic trick.
Tonight, many families celebrated the power supply by adding more dishes to their meals and keeping the lights on until midnight.
Shen Chu Ning was just like usual, reading until about ten o'clock and then fell asleep.
The days go by, and another day of rest comes.
There is less work in the fields now and Lu Qiaoqing doesn't have to work most of the time. She has nothing to do and comes to Shen Chuning to chat with some melon seeds every day off.
"Ningning, do you think Wang Yumeng is weird? Since your eldest brother got married, she no longer pretends to be sad in front of others, nor is she happy behind others' backs. Instead, she looks for high school textbooks everywhere and stays in her room reading all day.
I never saw her being very interested in studying before, but now she's suddenly like this, and I don't know what she's planning. ”
When Shen Chu Ning heard this, his heart couldn't help but "skimp".
Could it be that Wang Yumeng had the same dream about the future as her, so she knew the secret of her jade pendant and also knew that the country was about to resume the college entrance examination?
But what's strange is that, judging from Wang Yumeng's behavior, she should have discovered that the jade pendant no longer had any spiritual spring space.
She originally thought that since Wang Yumeng knew that her jade pendant had such a spiritual spring space, when Wang Yumeng found out that the jade pendant she gave her had no space, she would realize that the jade pendant was fake.
She was even prepared that after Wang Yumeng found out that the jade pendant she gave her was fake, she would instigate her second brother to cause trouble for her again.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yumeng discovered it, but she didn't dwell on her Lingquan space anymore. Instead, she turned around and went to read books to prepare for the college entrance examination.
For a moment, she was unsure whether Wang Yumeng really knew the secret of her jade pendant.
Anyway, Wang Yumeng is like a mystery, and she can’t understand it for the time being.
Since she couldn't understand it, she didn't think much about it.
She continued Lu Qiaoqing's words and said jokingly, "Qiaoqing, Wang Yumeng is studying high school knowledge. Maybe she heard some news that the country is going to resume the college entrance examination!
Maybe if the country resumes the college entrance examination, you educated youth can return to the city by taking the college entrance examination! ”
Lu Qiaoqing looked at Shen Chuning in shock, "No way? My family just sent me a letter two days ago, how come they didn't mention this at all?"
Chen Chuning thought about it and simply told Lu Qiaoqing that after Wang Yumeng was arrested last time, it was because someone from above helped her that she was able to return without receiving any punishment.
"Maybe Wang Yumeng got the information from that person she knows above?"
Lu Qiaoqing's face became serious, and she nodded and said, "Ningning, what you said makes sense. Then I will go back and write a letter to my family, asking them to find a set of high school textbooks and send them to me.
If the country really resumes the college entrance examination, I will be admitted to a university. College students will be more suitable for your third brother, the officer. ”
Shen Chuning: …
She knew that Lu Qiaoqing had been writing letters to her third brother during this period, but her third brother had never replied to her letters.
I didn’t expect that even though the third brother was so cold, Lu Qiaoqing was still so enthusiastic!
She was also quite helpless.
