Chapter 116 Zhao Meili's Thoughts
"Hey, I...we must learn it!" Both brothers were very excited.
"Little brother, study hard, get a job, and let mom find you a wife so you can start a family soon." An Jiandang felt that his younger brother should get married at this age.
"What? Are you anxious now? Last time I asked you to meet the girl from the Wang family in the next brigade, didn't you want to?" The brigade leader's wife looked at her youngest son in confusion.
"Mom, you were talking about that...that girl from the Wang family is too dark!" An Jianping got angry whenever he mentioned this. That girl was so dark that her teeth were the darkest part of her body.
After all, he is the captain's son. Even if he is not as beautiful as Brother Jianjun, he should be able to find a girl who is almost as beautiful as him.
"You still despise her because she's dark-skinned. She's so capable, a famous Saleng girl in the surrounding villages. If it weren't for your father, she wouldn't even be interested in someone like you."
She was not belittling her own son. In terms of hard work and diligence, he was not as good as the elder brother Jian Dang; in terms of talent and ability, he was not as good as Jian Jun; in terms of cleverness and sweet talk, he was not as good as Jian Xing.
It's neither good nor bad, and you still want to be picky.
"Mom, how could you dislike your own son so much!" If An Jianping hadn't been in such a bad mood, he would have been so depressed that he couldn't eat.
"Tongtong, mom won't say anything more. You guys should go back to bed quickly. You will have to wear the splint from now on. You all should learn from me, Tongtong." The captain's wife also knew that her son was quite good in this respect, so she was not angry no matter what she said.
An Jianping, who was in his own room, couldn't fall asleep.
Tossing and turning, these days, his mind and eyes are filled with Zhao Meili's voice, appearance and smile.
Or maybe it's because the girls in the city are so pretty. He always meets Zhao Meili during this period, which makes An Jianping's mind a little active.
Brother Jianjun can marry an educated youth, so why can't he find an educated youth as his wife?
Besides... he now has the opportunity to be a worker, Zhao Meili shouldn't despise him.
Educated youth point.
"Meili, what are you thinking? Why do I see you always getting close to An Jianping recently?" How could Wang Yan not see what Zhao Meili was thinking?
During this period, Zhao Meili was very diligent. She always rushed to work with her, such as collecting firewood and fetching water. She found that Zhao Meili often met with the youngest son of the team leader recently.
The first or second time, she didn't care, but after it happened so many times, she began to notice the signs.
"No, don't think about it." Zhao Meili denied it.
"You are hiding something from us, how could I not know you?" Wang Yan and Zhao Meili have been together for such a long time, and her every word and action cannot escape her eyes.
"So what? Do you look down on me too?" Zhao Meili simply sat up.
She didn't want to either, but... she was already twenty years old, not young anymore.
She likes Zhang Qiang, but he doesn't like her. She has tried so hard to please him, but he doesn't even look at her. What can she do?
I can only find another suitable partner.
Qin Siyu and Li Mingyu are together, and Wang Yan and Zhao Gang are not far behind. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that they like each other.
So many incidents had happened at this educated youth camp, and the reputation of the female educated youth there was not good. The vague glances from some people made her feel uneasy.
She now just wants to find someone to rely on as soon as possible. In this entire brigade, the most qualified and suitable candidate is An Jianping, the youngest son of the brigade leader.
They were about the same age, she was two years older than him, and he was a legitimate son. He was also the youngest son in the family, so he was favored anyway and would not suffer any grievances if he married her.
"It's not like that, Meili. Marriage is not a joke. Do you really want to break up?" Wang Yan was a little worried about Zhao Meili.
"Then tell me, what other way out do I have now?" Zhao Meili looked at Wang Yan.
She didn't want to either, but a woman's blooming period was so short. If she delayed any longer, she would become an old maid, and then she would have no choice.
Of course she wanted to go to the city, she dreamed about it, but it was not that easy.
No other educated youth in this educated youth camp was better off than her, let alone her, a girl with no identity, no status, and no background.
So she wanted to marry herself off, and the man she chose was the captain's youngest son.
"You...you have your own ideas. I won't try to persuade you. I can't tell right from wrong." After so many things happened, she was confused now and didn't know what to do in the future.
"Thank you anyway." At least he treated her sincerely.
Early the next morning, Zhao Jianping went to the educated youth site.
There was a boiled egg in his pocket.
As usual, Zhao Meili came out to pour water.
"Let me help you!" An Jianping saw Zhao Meili carrying the slop bucket and quickly stepped forward to take it.
"Why are you here?"
"I... I'm just passing by." An Jianping looked at Zhao Meili and felt like he was looking everywhere.
"By the way, I brought you some eggs. Eat them while they're hot." An Jianping quickly took out an egg from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Meili.
"I don't want it, don't follow me." Zhao Meili picked up the bucket and was about to leave.
"Hey... don't go, let's... let's chat for a while." An Jianping just wanted to stay with Zhao Meili, even if it was just to look at her a few more times.
He also knew that he was not worthy of her. Zhao Meili was a city girl. If she had not been sent to the countryside as an educated youth, how could she have fallen in love with him, a farmer.
