Yao Youjun, "...So what's going on today?"
"Today I came to see you because I'm going home by bus soon."
“····”
Yao Youjun felt bitter. It turned out that his mother didn't come to see him on purpose. He just came by by chance! Woo woo woo...
Chu Tian looked at Yao Youjun's hurt expression and couldn't help laughing. Seeing Yao Youjun looking at him with an aggrieved expression, he raised his hand to check the time and said.
"Mom, if you want to tell the friendly forces something, please tell them quickly. We can only stay for another half an hour or we will miss the bus."
"I'm going to go to the supply and marketing cooperative here first. You can talk to the friendly forces first."
After saying that, he turned and walked away. He knew that Yao's mother wanted to talk to Yao Youjun about Chu Lifang. As Yao Youjun's brother-in-law and Chu Lifang's cousin, it would be better for him to walk away at this time.
When Mother Yao saw Chu Tian leave, she quickly grabbed Yao Youjun and asked mysteriously, "Youjun, have you met your brother-in-law's cousin?"
Yao Youjun thought for a moment and said, "Chu Lifang?"
Yao's mother's eyes lit up, "Oh, son, do you know?"
Yao Youjun nodded, "I know. I saw him the day I returned."
"What's wrong?"
Yao's mother smiled flatteringly, "Youjun, what do you think of letting her be my daughter-in-law?"
Yao Youjun was stunned. When he realized what was happening, his face instantly turned red. "Mom, what are you talking about? That's my brother-in-law's cousin!"
Yao's mother disagreed, "What's wrong with my cousin? She's not my biological sister. Even if she is fine, our team is not a cousin..."
"And it's not a marriage exchange..."
Yao Youjun waved his hands quickly, "No, that's not good!"
Yao's mother said dissatisfiedly, "Why is it not good? This is better! Think about it, your wife is your eldest brother-in-law's cousin, and you are your eldest brother-in-law's brother-in-law, and his cousin-in-law. It's a double relationship, how great is it?"
Yao Youjun hesitated and said, "I, I, but now I..."
Seeing that her son didn't refuse outright, Yao's mother knew there was a chance. She patted Yao Youjun on the shoulder happily and said, "Well, as long as you don't object, your mother and your father will arrange it! Just work hard, get a regular job as soon as possible, and get a house soon. Then you can start a family."
Yao Youjun frowned, "Mom, don't be so confident. How do you know that she would agree?"
The reason why he could remember Chu Lifang was because he was so stunned by her the first time he saw her. Chu Lifang was different from all the girls he had met in the team. She spoke generously and appropriately, without any shyness. But she was also not like some girls who spoke without thinking and talked nonsense. She was a very comfortable person.
He didn't know how two girls who were born in the same farming family could be so different. He had always thought that only the children of workers would be like this...
He feels that he is not worthy of a girl like this, even if he becomes a formal employee in the future!
Yao's mother smiled and asked, "How do you know that they don't agree?"
Yao Youjun was surprised, "Mom, what do you mean?"
Yao's mother didn't answer Yao Youjun. Instead, she straightened Yao Youjun's collar and said slowly, "Youjun, you should know that you are not bad. You have a job now, although it is only an apprentice. But not everyone can become an apprentice. As long as you work hard and can be promoted to a regular employee, then you will be the best candidate for our brigade's son-in-law."
Yao Youjun sighed inwardly when he heard this, but still nodded, "Mom, I, I understand. I will do my best."
Although he felt that this matter could not be said to be certain, it was not easy to succeed.
Mother Yao smiled and said, "That's good. As long as you and your sisters are fine, it will be worth it for your parents to endure any hardship!"
At this time, Chu Tian came back with a bag. He used the excuse of going to the supply and marketing cooperative, but in fact he got some things out of the space. He gave Yao Youjun a few apples, oranges and bananas. In this era, many people lack vitamins. Chu Tian could not give him vitamins directly, so letting him eat some fruit occasionally was already what he could do.
He prepared some fine grains, walnuts, red dates, wolfberries and two pounds of mutton for Yao's mother, and asked her to take it back to nourish Yao's father. Don't say that Chu Tian was stingy and reluctant to give more. Isn't there a saying that goes "too much is too much to eat"?
He gave too much at once. What if people developed a habit of letting him get supplies anytime and anywhere?
"Youjun, why don't you go back to work? Your brother-in-law and I are going to the station."
Yao's mother sat on the back seat of Chu Tian's bicycle and waved to Yao Youjun who was carrying a bag.
Yao Youjun also waved his claws. "Mom, tell Dad I'm fine! In a few months, when I've mastered the skills more thoroughly, I'll ask Master for a few days off and come back to see you."
Yao's mother waved her hand and said, "Okay, I understand. You can go back now."
Then he pulled Chu Tian's clothes and said, "Chu Tian, let's go."
Chu Tian hummed, looked at Yao Youjun and said, "Youjun, go back quickly. We are leaving."
As he spoke, he pedaled his bike towards the station near the steel plant. Although this steel plant looks desolate, there is a saying about it.
Oh yes, although it is small, it has everything. Although it looks desolate, it has everything, including a station, a supply and marketing cooperative, a hospital, a state-owned restaurant, a post office, etc. It basically has everything that a production team has, just like a production team.
What Chu Tian didn't know was that at this time, there was a commotion in the educated youth's residence. It was not their families who were making trouble, but the educated youth who were making trouble.
"I don't want to grow vegetables. Farm work every day is tiring enough. I finally have a day off today, I don't want to continue working!"
The female educated youth Song Jiao was pulled out by Li Aihong and yelled unhappily.
Li Aihong put her hands on her hips and shouted, "You don't want to? Okay! If you dare to eat a bite of the vegetables we grow in the future, I'll smack you in the face!"
Song Jiao's face turned pale. "Li Aihong, could you please stop making so much trouble? No one else said anything, so why are you the only one making so much trouble?"
Li Aihong snorted coldly, "Am I meddling? Ask the people who came with us yourself if they're willing to let you enjoy the fruits of their labor."
Upon hearing this, Song Jiao turned her head and looked at the female educated youth who were hoeing the ground nearby. Seeing that they all seemed to be turning a deaf ear and ignoring her, she immediately became angry.
"Chen Xiu, what do you mean? You and Li Aihua have the same idea? Aren't we all educated youth? Why can't we help each other?"
The educated youth named Chen Xiu placed her pickaxe upright on the ground, staring at Song Jiao with an unclear expression. She asked, "You know we're all educated youth sent to the countryside and should help each other. Then why do you only ask us to help you, but never help us yourself?"
"Anyway, I've had enough of you. I won't serve you anymore!"
