Li Mingqing thought that Zhou Jingli would definitely not give up and would probably come a few more times.
After all, he had nothing and could only hold on to himself.
Sun Jiaxue asked, "Aren't the educated youth leaving?"
"They wanted to leave, but they couldn't."
“Then you have to settle down in the village.”
"That's hard to say. If some people are only thinking about returning to the city, they might not settle down. But the old ladies in the village are becoming more active."
Just as he said, the particularly active old woman was Zhang Cuihua.
There is an unmarried son and a daughter who was separated from her husband halfway through life.
Isn't that perfect?
"Zhao Zhiqing, what do you think of my Daguo?"
Zhao Yongmei was taken aback by the sudden question and said, "Very good."
"Right, if you're hardworking and capable, you'll be able to make a living. Marrying into our family will definitely not let you suffer."
"ah?"
"If you can't return to the city, you must get married, otherwise you won't be able to find a good one when you get older."
"Let's talk about it later."
After Zhao Yongmei said this, she was so scared that she quickly took two steps back.
Zhang Cuihua hadn't finished yet, and she came up to Zhao Youcai and Wu Shengli and said, "Look at my daughter, Daya, she's good at both housework and cooking. You better take advantage of her."
The two smiled but said nothing.
Da Zhu Niang said sarcastically, "How dare you say that."
"Why should I be afraid to say anything? The man and the woman are unmarried. Who can predict the future? Didn't your son marry Liu Zhiqing?"
After saying that, he dragged Wang Dazhu and Liu Jiajia away.
Li Dahua looked at her daughter Li Xianghong and said, "My Xianghong is not only pretty but also hardworking. However, the betrothal gift must be three turns and one ring."
Zhou Jingli, who had just been criticized, said, "Three turns and one ring? That's a nice idea."
"What do you mean? If you can't speak, just shut up."
"Auntie, if you say this, it will be difficult for your daughter to get married."
"Just because you're poor, don't think others can't afford it."
"Among the surrounding villages, only the Li family has the financial resources to buy three revamps and one bell at once. What a pity, all the sons of the Li family have already married and had children."
What he said is indeed correct.
We should be thankful if we can have enough food to eat all year round.
Three turns and one ring is simply a pipe dream.
The captain pulled Li Dahua over and whispered, "My daughter is still young, stay for a few more years."
"If you miss this opportunity, you will miss it forever."
"What if the educated youth return to the city in the future? What will happen to our daughter?"
Upon hearing this, Li Dahua suddenly realized that what he said was right. The male educated youth were not as skilled as the young men in the village when doing farm work, so they were indeed not suitable.
Without this thought in mind, Li Dahua stopped talking.
Wu Shengli and his companions were so frightened by Zhang Cuihua that they turned around and walked towards the educated youth center.
After Yu Huaizhi and Wang Mudan distributed the wedding candy, they returned to the thatched cottage in front of the village together.
Zhou Jingli saw everyone leaving him and quickly caught up with Yu Huaizhi.
"Yu Zhiqing, you two are quite quick. You've already started distributing the wedding candy."
"We've been dating for over half a year and it's time to get married. I plan to get my marriage certificate tomorrow."
He said with a forced smile, "Let's hold the wedding banquet back at the Youth League Institute so that everyone can have a good time."
“We’re not going to do it.”
"What, not doing it anymore?!"
"Yes, I can't come home, so I keep everything simple."
Zhou Jingli couldn't laugh at all. He was still thinking about getting some greasy food.
The richer you are, the stingier you become.
Yu Huaizhi has no shortage of money for a wedding banquet.
Late in the night, Wangcai's sharp screams woke up Li Mingqing and Sun Jiaxue.
"Wangcai, what's wrong? Is there a thief in the house?"
Wangcai called out towards the door.
Sun Jiaxue said nervously, "Brother Mingqing, it seems someone is really climbing the wall. Don't go out. What if the person who comes has a knife? It's too dangerous."
"Wife, it's okay, just stay in the house and don't come out."
He said that and walked out.
Sun Jiaxue held his arm tightly and said, "I'll go out with you."
"Niuniu is still sleeping. Stay in the house and look after the child."
When Li Mingqing went out, he picked up the wooden stick by the wall.
Whoever is so stupid as to dare to come to his house to steal things must be afraid of going to jail.
He opened the door quietly.
In the moonlight, I could see two people on the wall.
He was hidden in the shadow cast by the eaves, and there was a pile of firewood next to him, so no one could see him.
However, the two people on the wall were shocked.
I didn't expect to meet him on someone else's wall in the middle of the night.
"Who are you?"
"Who are you?"
A man and a woman.
The two of them thought each other's voices sounded familiar and thought they were probably from the village.
Now the two of them are like grasshoppers on the same rope.
After a stalemate on the wall, the two men decided to talk it out in the yard.
It was hard to get it down from the wall.
"Zhang family, why is it you!"
Wu Lili whispered, "Zhou Zhiqing, why is it you?"
The two asked in unison; "What are you doing here?"
Li Mingqing really had no patience. The two of them were really good at wasting time and kept nagging.
“Snap—”
The light turned on.
The two people covered their eyes in response to the bright light.
Then they realized that they had been caught red-handed by Li Mingqing.
Looking at Li Mingqing holding a wooden stick, Zhou Jingli quickly took two steps back.
"What a coincidence, why am I here?"
"I had a few drinks and just came back from town. I took the wrong turn."
Li Mingqing walked towards Zhou Jingli with a smile on his face and the wooden stick in his hand.
Without saying a word, the wooden stick hit him on the body.
