was very envious of the car that his eldest brother drove back, Hu Youjun circled around the car, and sat in it to feel it. sighed in his mouth: "Such a good car, the county town rarely sees it, when can I drive such a car!"

Song Sijie said on the side: "You can dream, maybe pies can fall from the sky." Hu Youmin cheered him up and said: "As long as you work hard, everything is possible, take the time to get a driver's license." He whispered that he had no money, Hu Youmin said that he would pay for the tuition, and Song Sijie hurriedly pushed him: "Thank you, big brother!"

Hu Youjun's hands were loose, and his salary was basically spent. I heard my sister say that he bought a pair of gold earrings for Song Sijie or asked for money from his mother, and also said that the second brother was going to get married on the National Day, what knot would he take? At that time, he would not ask the family for money? Hu Youfen was a little annoyed by the second brother's big hands, but Hu Youmin smiled and did not make a sound.

and Hu Youjun's unplanned spending of money, Hu Youfen is careful and frugal. Last time, the eldest brother gave her money to buy clothes, but she didn't buy them, Hu Youmin saw that she was still wearing her old clothes, thinking that she didn't have enough money to spend, and secretly gave her 500 yuan.

She didn't want to: "Big brother, you have a lot of money, and I still have money." Hu Youmin forced it to her, her sister is also a big girl, and everyone has a love for beauty.

In the afternoon, Hu Youmin called Wang Lei, and the two talked softly on the phone, saying what they missed. He asked tentatively, "Have you told your family about us?"

"Yes, my mom didn't object, but my dad said I'll wait until I see you in person. ”

"When am I going to your house to pay New Year's greetings?"

"Come here in the third year of junior high school, my dad deliberately postponed the day's entertainment, whether he can get it or not, it's up to you. ”

"Tell me about my father's situation, I'm so prepared. ”

"What's our dad? It's my dad, he's a bit old-fashioned, he likes to play chess, he likes calligraphy. ”

"Well, it's a bit difficult, but I'm confident that you won't be disappointed if you look at me then. ”

"Well, my mom called me, I'll hang up first, goodbye. ”

After hanging up the phone, Hu Youmin was very excited, as long as her family agreed to see him, it would be half the success. He began to prepare gifts, there were in the trunk of the tobacco and alcohol car, and when he got two barrels of tea oil, two local chickens, and two pieces of bacon at home, he went to the back of the mountain to dig some winter bamboo shoots, and then went to the neighbor's house to buy a bottle of Tufeng honey. Explain these to your parents, saying that they are going to pay New Year's greetings to a leader in the third year of junior high school.

Old-fashioned, hard-loving people seem to be difficult to deal with, as long as you have an appetite for him, he is much better to talk to than people who laugh all day long. Hu Youmin also has some traditions in his heart, he believes that he must have his own principles and bottom line to be a man, to have something to stick to, and to be a man in advance.

As for chess and calligraphy, he also knows a little bit and is something he likes. He is full of confidence in the trip to the Red Sun, and he can get Wang Lei, but he can't get her father?

After breakfast on the first day of the new year, the family went to grandpa and grandma to pay New Year's greetings, and grandpa's house was just behind the hill, which could be walked in ten minutes.

The uncles have separated the family, and only the grandparents are at home, and when they saw them coming, they beckoned them to the hall to roast the fire, and began to cook tea and cook by themselves, and Liu Yuexiang also went to the kitchen to help.

After sitting for a while, the two uncles and their families also came, and the room suddenly became lively. Greeting each other and asking about the recent situation is not a laugh.

The family of the two uncles is very envious and respectful of the uncle's family, three children, two college students, although Hu Youmin is not a regular university graduate, but he is a boss outside, he is a good offspring who is praised by the whole village, and he is a model for young people to struggle.

The second aunt pulled Hu Youmin aside and asked if she could let Hu Jiayan go to his factory to do something? Hu Jiayan was his cousin, and because she planned to give birth, the second uncle would have a baby daughter for her.

Everyone calls her Swallow, she has an average figure, a little fat face, and is a happy and simple person. Yanzi is seventeen years old, she has just graduated from high school, she has not been admitted to college, she wants to go to the south to work, and the second uncle and second aunt are not worried that she will go so far away.

Hu Youmin said with a smile: "I am also just starting out, the salary is not as high as in the south, and Yanzi has just graduated and has no skills, I don't know what she wants to do?"

The second aunt said: "You can do any job, just don't be too tired, the salary is not exquisite, and the family doesn't expect her to make money, and besides, you won't treat your sister badly, right?"

He had no choice but to say, "Why don't you let her go to the factory to make a cashier?" but first go to training for a few months, take an accounting certificate, learn a skill, have work experience, and find a job everywhere." ”

The second aunt called Hu Jiayan over, told her what Hu Youmin meant, and asked her if she was willing? Yanzi didn't understand this, and when she heard that she could go to work in the city, she was happy to say yes, staying at home during this time made her suffocated. Hu Youmin asked her to get ready and go to Baisha with her in a few days.

On the second day of junior high school, I went to my grandfather's and grandmother's house to pay New Year's greetings. Several uncles were playing cards in the courtyard, and when they saw them coming, they all got up to say hello.

Except for the second uncle, Hu Youmin doesn't like the other uncles very much, they are a little snobbish, petty, and a little lazy.

When I was a child, the conditions at home were not good, and several uncles at home often came to eat and drink, asking for this and that, thinking that it was a matter of course for my sister to help my brother, and never wanted them to start a family, and they had to take on the responsibility of a man.

When Hu Youmin's family had something, his uncles were very cold, and they were not even as good as their neighbors. Liu Yuexiang was angry a few times, and she didn't pay much attention to them, except for the New Year's holiday, she rarely went back to her parents' house.

Now that her family conditions are good, in the face of the stammering of several younger brothers, Liu Yuexiang didn't show them a look, but was polite like a stranger.

Finally waited for the third year of junior high school, Hu Baomin cleaned up and dressed up. Bring the prepared gifts and rush to Hongyang City early in the morning, because I sent Wang Lei back last time, and this time I am familiar with the road. There were not many cars on the road, and they drove very fast, and when they arrived downstairs at Wang Lei's house, it was not yet ten o'clock.

Called Wang Lei to come down and help get something, and saw that his trunk was full, Wang Lei blamed him for not getting so much, and made fun of him for spending so much money, if the chicken and eggs were beaten, wouldn't he feel distressed? Hu Youmin smiled and said: "It's all some local products from the countryside, and you people in the city want to know this." ”

Wang Yizhi's heart is not calm these days, thinking about what kind of person Hu Youmin is? When her daughter was in high school, she had suitors, and until she graduated from college, none of them made her tempted.

He is a countryman, and he can make his daughter fall in love, and he keeps saying that he is good and good in front of him, for fear that he will not agree, and encourages her mother to do the work.

I heard that Hu Youmin made a lot of money, but his daughter is not a hedonistic person, which is not the reason why his daughter fell in love with him.

He also came from a poor family, working his way up from a tax collector to the director of the tax department. I don't care much about Hu Youmin's background, and I also recognize business.

Out of the instinct of fatherly love, he wants to take care of his daughter, and he can't let the simple Wang Lei be deceived. Her lover Yang Shifang doesn't think as much as him, she believes in her daughter's vision, as long as she is happy.

and Wang Lei went upstairs with large bags and small bags, and Yang Shifang helped them bring things into the house. While she was talking about what to do with buying so many things, she looked at Hu Youmin and saw that he was a talented person who was completely worthy of her daughter, and she was secretly happy in her heart. Although Wang Yizhi sat on the sofa and did not move, his eyes never left Hu Youmin.

Although Hu Youmin was a little apprehensive in his heart, he behaved confidently and decently, calmly and politely. He put down his things and said to Yang Shifang, "Happy New Year, Auntie!" and said to Wang Yizhi: "Happy New Year, uncle!"

Wang Yizhi nodded slightly, and Yang Shifang warmly beckoned him to sit on the sofa and bring him fruits and snacks to eat. Wang Pengfei was not at home, so he went to play with his classmates early in the morning.

Sitting together drinking tea and chatting, Hu Youmin behaved generously and answered their various questions without humility. Wang Lei sat quietly beside him, listened to them, and did not interject, she peeled a small orange for him to eat from time to time, as if this could help him a little.

Wang Yizhi saw that he was almost done, and asked Hu Youmin and said, "Come to my study." Then he got up and walked to the study first.

Wang Lei looked at her mother nervously, and Yang Shifang signaled her to rest assured with her eyes. Hu Youmin held her hand, patted it gently, and followed Wang Yizhi into the study.

The study is not large, with a large row of bookcases against the wall, a desk by the window, some words and ink on the desk, and a long wooden sofa opposite the desk.

Wang Yizhi sat behind the desk and motioned for him to sit on the sofa. Hu Youmin sat down calmly, did not speak, and waited for him to speak.

After staring at him for more than a minute, Wang Yizhi went straight to the point, and asked in an unkind tone: "Why did you marry my daughter?"

Hu Youmin said in a calm tone: "Uncle Wang, love doesn't need a reason, it is like and throbbing from the heart, and rational love is mostly a compromise or transaction. Wang Lei and I really love each other, and we don't need anything, but I understand your father's love, and I say three reasons. ”

"First, the two love each other, the feeling of true love is the strongest, it is not adulterated with substances, the rank of the family and other external factors, even if the life is like water, but also to resist the temptation of the outside, coarse tea and light rice can eat the delicacies of the mountains and seas. insists on clinging to power and being noble, and most of them are resentful women in the deep palace. ”

"Second, I am a man with a sense of responsibility and a family who will not be good to Wang Lei for the rest of my life. Uncle Wang, you have read countless people, what kind of person am I, I believe you have already judged, and please believe that I love Wang Lei more than you. ”

"Third, I have the ability to make her live a happy and happy life. Although I come from the countryside and there is a gap between me and the people in the city, I am quickly eliminating this difference and will soon surpass it, whether it is wealth, status, or personal qualities. ”

"Uncle Wang, I'm done, if you want a guarantee, I can only guarantee it with quality and personality. The love blessed by our parents is perfect, and Wang Lei and I both want this perfect love!"

Wang Yizhi leaned back in his chair and listened to him quietly, Hu Youmin finished speaking, but he still didn't say a word. The room was so quiet that you could hear the sound of a heartbeat, and time seemed to stand still in silence. After a cigarette, Wang Yizhi said to him: "Xiaohu, accompany me to the next second plate?"

Wang Lei was helping her mother pick vegetables in the kitchen, but her eyes were fixed on the study. Yang Shifang saw that she threw some picked vegetables into the trash can, and also threw some rotten leaves in the vegetable basket, sighed lightly, and asked her to go back to the room to rest, Wang Lei hummed, but did not move, still picking vegetables absentmindedly.

Seeing them come out of the study, she threw away the dishes in her hand, and involuntarily walked towards Hu Youmin, seeing that he secretly made an OK gesture to herself, she put down her hanging heart, and then found that she was a little out of shape, and hurriedly returned to the kitchen to pick vegetables, with a happy flush on her face.

Yang Shifang saw that her husband was holding a chessboard and preparing to play chess with Hu Youmin, so he would find someone to kill the second game when he was in a good mood. Knowing that Hu Youmin had passed her husband's inspection, he was about to tell his daughter, and when he saw her shy, he realized that this shrewd little girl knew the result before herself.

Set up the chessboard, arrange the troops, Hu Youmin opened and closed, and Yang Yizhi took the camp step by step. tore to the midfield, because Wang Yizhi was a little conservative, he seemed very passive.

The first time he couldn't kill his father-in-law, Hu Youmin deliberately pretended to be careless, let him eat a horse, and then lost to him in a struggle.
