On the other side, in the Li family, Liu Xinghua looked at her daughter in front of her, feeling extremely angry.
"Meili, you better think it over carefully. If you really get married, there will be no regrets!"
"Mom, I have no regrets. I am happy to marry Xu Guoqing."
Liu Xinghua frowned, "That Xu Guoqing is just an educated youth. He may never be able to return to the city in his lifetime. Besides, he has no brothers to help him. He has to rely on himself."
"Mom, I've thought it through. Wouldn't it be nice to not have a mother-in-law? It would save me from having people pointing fingers at me. Look at your life, how frustrated you have been!"
"But...but you don't understand."
"I'm just afraid that you're an ungrateful person."
"Mom, don't worry. Xu Guoqing looks like a decent person."
"Well, since you've made up your mind, then just wait for me to propose marriage!"
Before daybreak, Li Yuechan opened her eyes in a daze, hugged her mother and returned to the small bed.
After she untied her mother's sleeping point, she turned over and continued to sleep soundly.
After a while, she heard the bed creaking and some rustling sounds.
She knew her mother had gotten up. Su Lizhen looked at her watch and was very puzzled.
Normally when I sleep with my little sister, I always feel that the bed is too small and crowded, and I am not comfortable at all. But today I feel so comfortable all over.
She looked at her daughter who was still sleeping, covered her with a blanket, and walked out of the room.
It was already ten o'clock when Li Yuechan woke up again. She walked out of the room and saw her mother coming back from buying groceries.
"Little girl, have you had breakfast? Mom will make you something delicious for lunch."
"I haven't eaten yet, but I'm not going to eat lunch at home. I have to go back to my grandma's house."
Su Lizhen asked in confusion, "Why are you going back?"
"Oh, Meili is getting engaged today, and I promised my grandma that I would attend."
"Ah, how come Meili is engaged? I haven't heard Sister-in-law mention it before?"
Li Yuechan told her mother everything she knew while gesturing while eating.
Su Lizhen sighed, "How about I go back with you?"
"Hey, I'm representing our family. You still have to work the night shift. Just stay at home and have a good rest. I'm leaving now!"
"Well, then ride slower."
"knew."
Li Yuechan rode her bicycle towards Huaishu Village. Since she had promised, she would definitely do it.
On the other side, Xu Guoqing got up early and went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy four snacks, spending his only meat ticket.
I asked Captain 꺶's aunt 놌놛 to go to the Li family to propose marriage.
This morning, because Xu Guoqing came to propose marriage, the whole family took a leave and did not go to school.
Liu Xinghua had been waiting for a long time, fearing that the educated youth might change his mind, and also feeling that her daughter had been wronged, which caused her to not sleep well last night.
Xu Guoqing followed Captain 꺶's aunt to the Li family. Liu Xinghua saw what they were carrying.
A satisfied smile appeared on her face, fortunately she didn't embarrass us by looking so beautiful.
Xu Guoqing rubbed his hands nervously, "Auntie, although we have only been together for a short time, I really want to marry her. I will try my best to treat her well."
Liu Xinghua smiled and nodded, "It seems that you are also an honest child, but according to the rules here, you have to follow the customs when it comes to the bride price."
Xu Guoqing quickly agreed, "I understand." Then he took out ten yuan from his pocket and said, "Auntie, this is my betrothal gift."
Liu Xinghua didn't hesitate and took it directly.
Zhang Lai Di on the side curled her lips, but when she saw the meat Xu Guoqing took, she immediately trotted over.
"Hey, Comrade Xu, you are such a handsome guy. It is not a loss for us to have found you."
Xu Guoqing quickly smiled kindly and said, "Second aunt."
"Hey~" Then he turned to Liu Xinghua and said, "Sister-in-law, the dishes are ready, I'll go cook."
Liu Xinghua smiled and nodded. She knew clearly in her heart that Zhang Lai Di must have become so kind because she saw the meat being eaten.
But today is a beautiful day, so she is too lazy to argue with this woman!
A group of people sat down in the yard. Hu Chunxiang said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, Guoqing looked at the calendar.
Next month will be a good day, or three months later, but it still depends on our family's opinion."
Li Meili heard this in the house and couldn't help but frown. In fact, she wanted to stay at home for a few more days.
But she didn't know that Xu Guoqing went to school yesterday and was very tired, so he wanted to get married early.
Yesterday, I had already known all about Li Meili's family situation. It turned out that Captain 꺶 was Li Meili's cousin.
If I get married, Captain 꺶 will definitely give 놛 an easier life for the sake of our relationship.
Liu Xinghua thought for a moment and said, "Then let's choose a date three months from now. I want to stay longer, Meili."
Hu Chunxiang looked at Xu Guoqing, who pursed his lips, thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then three months later."
I just don't believe it. There's no way to advance the wedding date.
Then he smiled and said, "Auntie, I went to see the house at the east entrance of the village yesterday. It's not bad. The yard is not big, but it's enough for the two of us to live in.
It's just that the roof is leaking a little, I plan to go back and ask someone to fix it."
Liu Xinghua nodded. She knew that house. It was built by a former educated youth. Later, when the youth returned to the city, the house was handed over to the team.
"Why bother hiring someone? Why waste that much money? Let Meili's two brothers fix it tomorrow. As for the other things, you can take your time to prepare them."
Xu Guoqing nodded quickly, "Okay, thank you, auntie.
"Then do you want to inform your parents?"
Xu Guoqing lowered his head and said, "My parents are both working, and I don't think they have time to take time off to come here."
"What about your brothers and sisters?"
“I have three older brothers, two older sisters, and two younger brothers.
My two elder sisters are married, my second elder brother is also married, and my two younger brothers are still young, so they probably won’t come.”
Liu Xinghua frowned and muttered to herself, "In this family, I guess Guoqing is not a popular kid at home either."
But she still smiled and said, "Forget it, but getting married is a big deal, you should give her a call when you get the chance."
"Oh, okay, auntie."
Li Meiling hid in Li Meili's room, staring at Li Meili and asking curiously, "Are you really going to marry yourself like this?"
