The first update -

"Son-in-law? From the city? The old man looked at Lin Bai carefully, today's Lin Bai did not wear the usual dress, but dressed quite formally, a more reliable white shirt, wearing reliable seven-point slacks, shoes and not kicking slippers, but decent cowhide sandals, in general, it still looks like a talent. Of course, this dress directly betrays that he is from the city, and it is obviously not the same way as the young men in the countryside.

Lin Bai smiled: "Well, people from Shuangqing City!" ”

"Hello people in the city." The mother-in-law usually looks at her son-in-law and is more satisfied, and Ye Qing's mother immediately praised: "The literary and polite is a learned person at first glance, which is like our little leaf, and at first glance it is a mountain mouse that is shaving in the soil." ”

Learned? This compliment praised Lin Bai to the point that he was sweating all over his body, Nima, every time Lao Tzu meets a stranger in his life, he will be regarded as an uneducated fool, this is the first time that he has been regarded as a scholar, it seems that the aesthetic concepts of people in the city and people in the countryside are completely different.

Lin Baiwan didn't need to be modest, he just needed to touch his conscience and replied: "My aunt has won the award, I don't have much knowledge, and I am a rough person." ”

The mother-in-law smiled and said, "If you are a rough person, what is our little leaf?" She pulled her son, that is, Ye Qing's younger brother, to Lin Bai's side and compared, the young man was dressed in sun-tanned skin, thick eyebrows, big eyes, rough hands and feet, with him by his side, Lin Bai really looked like a scholar.

"Stand at the door and say anything, come in." The old man spoke, and the whole family rushed into the house, but there was no electricity in the remote countryside. A dim oil lamp was lit, and the five of them sat down around a creaking wooden table. The mother-in-law was afraid that the prospective son-in-law would dislike the dirty house, so she took a cloth and wiped the bench desperately. But how could Lin Bai care about this, he had been poor since he was a child. When has there ever been such a thing as cleanliness? didn't care at all, just sat on the dirty stool that hadn't been wiped clean yet, and sat on his slacks that looked classy.

The mother-in-law was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Son-in-law...... Cough...... Boy, don't you tighten your pants when they're dirty? ”

Lin Bai laughed and said: "It's okay, I grew up rolling in mud since I was a child, how can I care about this." ”

Although this matter is small, the old man nodded secretly. I thought: The prospective son-in-law doesn't dislike our family for being poor and dirty at all, and the new pants sit directly on the dirty stool, and his expression doesn't mind at all, it seems that he is a good boy.

"Big Yezi, you haven't had much contact with your family over the years, and you only occasionally write a letter back to say that you are doing business." The old man seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Ye Qing: "This time I directly brought my son-in-law back, I was so ignorant, and I didn't say it in advance, so that we could prepare." ”

In front of his father, Ye Qing was obviously a little cringe. Rural children who have been beaten and kicked by their fathers since childhood abound, but it is not that they do not love children. It's that the way of education is so simple and rude, so most children love and fear their fathers, and the two feelings are very delicately intertwined. Ye Qing said in a low voice: "Dad, I'm not sure when I'll be back, so I can't write a letter in advance." ”

"Okay, I'll just say it, I don't mean to blame you." The old man smiled and said, "It's good to come back, it's been eleven years, and you only came back from the city once." Let's stay at home for a few more days this time......" Speaking of this, the old man paused. And said: "How have you been in the city all these years?" ”

Ye Qing actually had a good time in Shuangqing. With Lin Bai and the old neighbors taking care of him, he has not encountered any difficulties in life in the past eleven years, but ...... None of her businesses have been successful, she has opened a barber shop with few customers, she can't sell her mobile phones, she only earns enough money to live by selling barbecues, and she is just starting out selling swimsuits...... Over the years, I couldn't send a penny to my home, which made me very embarrassed, so I had to be honest with the old man: "Relying on the help of friends I met in the city, my life is fine, but my business has always failed, and I have never been able to make money." ”

The old man snorted and said: "I just said, our rural people's hearts are too dead, how can we do business than clever city people, I was against it when you went to Shuangqing, and it has been eleven years in the blink of an eye, but you still have nothing to do, why did you go out in the first place?" ”

The mother-in-law hurriedly came out to play a round: "It's not like nothing, you see, this didn't bring back a son-in-law from the city, with good facial features, a talent, and a very learned appearance, what a good son-in-law, this can't be found in the village." ”

When he said this, Lin Bai felt numb, but he didn't expect the old man to object to this, and said to Lin Bai with a smile: "Young man, I think you are really good, people in the city read a lot of books, what school did you graduate from?" ”

I know, how can I not check the household registration when I see the other party's parents? Lin Bai has long been mentally prepared for this kind of thing, at this time, it is possible to fool the past by making up a famous university, but he does not want to deceive people, so he honestly replied: "I only have high Chinese, I really have no culture, don't laugh at me." ”

"High school? Wow! The old man's eyes flashed, and he seemed to be happy from the bottom of his heart: "It's really learned, I've studied in high school, hahahaha...... Our son-in-law is really capable. ”

No way? Gao Chinese, in Shuangqing any passerby A can also trample me to death, why are you so exaggerated? Lin Bai Khan.

The old man said triumphantly: "The most cultured in our village is the village chief, he has finished junior high school, he is very proud, often show off culture in front of me, tomorrow Lao Tzu sprays him in the face, I have a son-in-law with high Chinese, hahaha!" ”

Lin Bai covered his face and almost fell to the ground.

But think about it carefully, and feel a little sad, in these deep mountain old villages, there is only a primary school in ten miles and eight towns away, and the junior high school must go to Fengming Town, from Baiyinwan Village to the town, just driving for nearly an hour, if you let the people in the village walk to school, how long do you have to walk every day? Going to junior high school is really difficult for them.

"What does the lad do?" The old man continued to check the household registration.

Before Lin Bai could answer this time, Ye Qing rushed ahead, probably afraid that Lin Bai would say something unreliable, and said eagerly: "He is from the battery factory." ”

"Workers in battery factories? All right! High-tech industry. The old man was so happy that he blew his beard: "It's good to be a worker, a worker has a future, it's better than being a farmer." ”

Lin Bai had no choice but to smile bitterly: "I think it's good to be a farmer, thirty-six lines, all of them are champions, and no line is more noble than others." ”

The old man shook his head: "Those are all slogans blown out by officials, and the thirty-six lines are superior and inferior, and the workers are better than the peasants." At the beginning, Da Yezi said that she wanted to go to the city to find a job, although I didn't approve of it, but she insisted on going, so I still let her go, thinking that if she could go to the city to be a female worker in a textile factory or something, it would be better than digging the land in the countryside for a lifetime. ”

Having said this, it is inconvenient for Lin Bai to interject, this kind of thing is getting darker and darker, it's better not to talk back to the old man.

That night, Ye Qing went back to his room to rest, Xiao Yezi's room was vacated for Lin Bai to rest, he could only sleep on the bench in the living room, Lin Bai originally wanted to grab the bench seat, but as a "guest", where could he grab the host? It is better to have to occupy a broken wooden bed with small leaves.

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Lin Bai got up and was about to talk to the old man about setting up a wedding banquet, but he saw that the old man and Xiao Yezi were carrying a basket and a sickle in their hands, looking like they were going to go to the field. Ye Qing and her mother-in-law followed behind them, and they were actually dressed in the same way.

"Huh? What's the situation, why do you all have to go to the fields early in the morning? And is it the whole family of men and women going out? Lin Bai was at a loss.

Ye Qing said with a smile: "We came back just in time for the summer harvest of rapeseed, this is the busy season of farming, of course, the whole family went out to harvest rapeseed." ”

"Oh? It turns out that the rape is harvested in the summer! Lin Bai has gained a little more knowledge, he can only eat vegetables, he can't grow vegetables, what vegetables are cooked in what season, his eyes are completely black, he is full of interest in the summer harvest, and said with a smile: "I'll go with me too." ”

"How can you let the guests do it." The old man shook his head: "You just sit at home and rest." ”

Lin Bai smiled: "I am your son-in-law, but I can't be considered a guest." ”

This made sense, the old man gave up after thinking about it, found a basket for Lin Bai to carry on his back, and got him a sickle...... Lin Bai's brand-new shirt had a belt on his back, and black marks were instantly strewn, but he really didn't care, he just looked at the sickle in his hand stupidly.

The people of the Ye family have a good impression of him, I heard that the people in the city do not work in the fields, and they are afraid of getting dirty and tired, but this young man has no bad problems at all.

When he arrived at the rape field, Lin Bai only glanced at it, and he was almost scared to pee, only to see a whole mountain, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, all green rape, and he couldn't see his head at all: "Oh, my mother, so much?" If Ye Qing and I don't come back, will it be up to the three of you to be able to harvest it? ”

The old man was happy: "This is not our family, each family has a rape field, and the vegetable fields planted by the villagers in several villages have become rape in the whole mountain." ”

"I see, scare me!" Lin Bai patted his chest.

The old man waved his sickle and said: "Let's move quickly, see that the weather is a little wrong, it may rain at any time, if you can't harvest and thresh the rape before the rainstorm arrives, then the loss will be Daluo." ”

Lin Bai didn't understand what threshing was, but he knew that this thing seemed to have to be harvested before the rainstorm, so he said with a smile: "How to harvest, you just have to say, I promise to do a good job." (To be continued)
