Qiu Lanying smiled and said, "Look, you're not young anymore. It would be great if you could get married sooner."
Bai Ruozhen suppressed her smile and blushed as she said, "Auntie, I'm just seventeen."
"I know, I know." Qiu Lanying took her hand and said, "I can't wait to marry you." Then she continued to ramble, "Look, life in the countryside is so hard. It would be so nice to get married and live a stable life in Yancheng as a couple. Don't you know how much it hurts me to see you and the others working in the fields every day?"
It's okay to ask Li Xianjin to arrange a light job for me occasionally, and it won't be a problem if it lasts for a long time. It will definitely make people talk about it. It's better to marry her home early. It would be great if we can go to Yancheng and one of us can enjoy life at home while the other can go to work and earn a salary. When we have children, she will help take care of them.
Bai Ruozhen glanced at Qiu Lanying and felt very touched. It was really her blessing to have such a mother-in-law.
While the two were talking, they arrived at Gu's house, and Bai Ruozhen heard Gu Changqing's voice at the door.
Gu Changqing heard the noise and hurried over to open the door. Seeing Bai Ruozhen, he grinned and said, "Zhenzhen, come in quickly."
Bai Ruozhen nodded and went in, calling out, "Uncle."
"Hey, sit down and eat." Gu Zhiguo put out his pipe and glanced at Gu Changqing. "When this guy heard you were coming, he quickly asked me to put out the pipe, fearing that it would smoke you. I can't keep it anymore."
Bai Ruozhen couldn't help but laugh when he heard him speak.
After visiting the Gu family more often, she found that everyone in the Gu family was easy to get along with, but she had never met the eldest and third brothers and didn't know what they were like.
Qiu Lanying had specially prepared a lot of delicious dishes because she knew she was coming. She kept putting the delicious food in front of Bai Ruozhen and said, "Eat more. You'll look better if you get fatter."
Bai Ruozhen quickly said, "Auntie, I can do it myself." Then he took the initiative to pick up some food for Qiu Lanying.
Qiu Lanying was so happy. She clearly felt that Bai Ruozhen had changed a lot compared to before. When he first came here, he would only speak when others asked him. Now he talks more than before, and he is more cheerful and likable.
"This is your home, take whatever you want to eat." Qiu Lanying said, glaring at Gu Changqing, "Don't just stare at Zhenzhen and laugh like an idiot. At least give her some food."
Gu Changqing chuckled and quickly picked up some food for Bai Ruozhen with his chopsticks. "Zhenzhen, eat more." Then he scooped a bowl of chicken soup for her. "Drink some chicken soup. I asked my mother to put ginseng and jujube in it. It's very nourishing."
Bai Ruozhen was embarrassed to say that she couldn't make up for it, but since she had already served it, she smiled and took it and drank it. Drinking it once or twice should be fine, after all, chicken soup is not available every day. However, this old hen soup tasted really good. Bai Ruozhen drank sip after sip, and the bowl of chicken soup was quickly empty.
Seeing that she liked it, Gu Changqing served her another bowl, and simply tore off the chicken thigh and put it in Bai Ruozhen's bowl. There were also a few pieces of braised pork ribs piled in Bai Ruozhen's bowl. Anyway, there were no vegetables, so all the meat and vegetables were piled there.
Bai Ruozhen was touched and picked up some food for him. Gu Zhiguo and his wife were very happy looking at the two of them.
After dinner, Qiu Lanying pulled Bai Ruozhen over and instructed Gu Changqing, "Go wash the dishes."
Gu Changqing carried the basin out swiftly, which made Bai Ruozhen very happy. This guy probably had never done any work before, it was rare for him to be so diligent.
Qiu Lanying pulled Bai Ruozhen to sit on the kang and said, "Zhenzhen, after the wheat harvest is over, why don't you ask Changqing to go home with you and talk about your situation?"
Bai Ruozhen thought that it would be possible after the wheat harvest, so he nodded and said, "I'll listen to my aunt."
Qiu Lanying was immediately delighted when she heard this. She took her hand and said, "What a good child, what a good child."
Good boy Bai Ruozhen's face was already red, and he lowered his head slightly and smiled embarrassedly.
Who would have thought that after going to the countryside for half a year, they would find a partner. This is really incredible.
Gu Changqing washed the dishes and sent Bai Ruozhen back home. As soon as Bai Ruozhen left the door, Gu Changqing grabbed her hand.
Bai Ruozhen struggled twice but failed to break free, and said shyly, "Let go."
"No." Gu Changqing's mouth curved in the darkness, and he said in a good mood, "Anyway, no one can see us in the middle of the night."
While speaking, he deliberately tried to break free but couldn't.
Gu Changqing felt a little proud, and the smile on his face became even wider.
Bai Ruozhen felt the warmth coming from his palm and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth. It felt so good.
Gu Changqing glanced at Bai Ruozhen and said, "Zhenzhen, are we really going to your house after the wheat harvest? Will your parents dislike me?"
Bai Ruozhen didn't understand, "Why do I dislike you?"
"Because I am from the countryside." said Gu Changqing.
Bai Ruozhen frowned slightly, "Aren't you a city resident?"
Gu Changqing nodded and said, "Yes, I transferred to Yancheng when I changed my work relationship, but I haven't started working yet."
Bai Ruozhen nodded, "That's nothing to worry about. You get a salary from working in the city, Aunt Qiu and Uncle Gu earn work points at home, and my brothers and sisters will also have a bright future. My parents won't object." Marrying a man means providing clothing and food. This is not the Great Zhou where there is no need to pay attention to the matching of family backgrounds. There is nothing to worry about.
"I always feel uneasy," said Gu Changqing.
Bai Ruozhen stopped and looked at him. "I'll probably never be able to return to the city after going to the countryside, so I'll have to marry someone in the countryside. They've already made preparations for this. They're already prepared for marrying someone who works on the land. I want to marry you now. You're a worker, and your family life is good. They have no reason to object."
Gu Changqing had no experience and asked uncertainly, "Really?"
Bai Ruozhen affirmed, "Of course."
、
Gu Changqing thought about it and it seemed to be true. Although his conditions were not comparable to those of the wealthy families in the city, they were still considered good to them. His brothers and sisters were either cadres or workers, and they were the best in their entire commune. Moreover, he was about to go to work in a transportation company and was slowly earning money, which was enough for the two of them to eat and drink well and live a good life. There was really nothing to worry about.
