Chapter 122: Surprised
During the Chinese New Year, my cousin got married and was a townsman, but the conditions were not good, and she lived with her parents-in-law. She is also 21 years old, and her parents are also preparing to set up her blind date.
She had to tell them that hyperthyroidism is not suitable for having children, and that people in the city are unwilling to marry someone who does not have children, let alone people in the countryside, and she is reluctant to give up her job in Suzhou and return to her hometown. The parents were shocked at first, and then gloomy: Why is your life so bitter, I thought you had found a good job in Suzhou, and you have become more beautiful, so you can find a good mother-in-law.
She smiled and comforted the two old men: You should be happy, I have inquired, although I am a rural person, as long as I pay my pension, I can also receive a retirement salary when I am 50 years old; I've also calculated, according to my current income, I should be able to buy a small house by the time I am 50 years old, and then I will take you both to Suzhou, and I will take you to various gardens to walk around.
"Silly girl, by that time, your father and I won't be able to walk even if we are still alive!"
"No, the eighty-year-old man in the city is still very flexible, and if Grandma Li Ping hadn't broken her leg, she would have no problem living to be a hundred years old."
This reminded her parents: "Li Ping, you should also get married and have children now, right?" He was twenty-eight years old at the time, and he is thirty-one this year. “
"At the end of last year, I heard that I hadn't found a partner yet, so I guess it won't be so soon." Li Ping is thirty-one years old, she doesn't know this, she still thinks she is about the same age as her cousin, about twenty-six years old.
"Good man, whoever marries him is a blessing! When he sent the 300 yuan over, I thought that it would be great if you weren't ten years apart, but fortunately, there is a big difference in your age, otherwise, it really happened, you can't have children, isn't it hurting others! “
When she returned to Suzhou on the evening of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, to her surprise, Li Ping was asked by Aunt Tuo Yao Fan this afternoon if she would like to be his girlfriend. The reason is that the elders felt that he had no hope of marrying a local, so in the second half of last year, he was asked to recruit outsiders everywhere. At that time, Suzhou people were still a bit xenophobic, and his mother was worried that her son would not have the ability to discriminate, so she accompanied her in person every time, but she didn't expect outsiders to be unwilling. This time during the Chinese New Year, it was a very straightforward introduction made by a person, and she directly said the other party's opinion: "Without a marriage room, my mother will be difficult to get along with, and I can't live together." ”
Li Ping's mother doesn't get along well, and Li Ping's grandparents have the most right to speak. Li Ping's parents fell in love freely when they were educated youths in Xinjiang, and when they came to the door for the first time, they didn't call anyone, and when everyone talked to her, she rarely replied; Later, every time the couple came back from Xinjiang to visit relatives, she only went to her mother's house to visit relatives and never came here; Later, they worked hard to get the couple back to Suzhou from Xinjiang, but the daughter-in-law blamed them for spoiling Li Ping to their faces, which made the two old men vomit blood in anger; The son opened a shop and made money, bought a new public house, and the grandson asked the old man to live there, but as a result, this daughter-in-law did not smile, and there was no sound in and out, and sometimes, they thought she was not there, but suddenly came out of the back room, so after living for a week, the old people refused to stay, and preferred to return to the old bungalow in Tiger Hill.
The feelings between people are mutual, the daughter-in-law does not take the two old people seriously, after a long time, the two old people do not take the daughter-in-law seriously, they were thinking about the marriage of their grandson before, they did not expect that the future granddaughter-in-law would not want to get along with the daughter-in-law. They feel that with this daughter-in-law here, the grandson may only be a single for the rest of his life. If they have other grandchildren, or if this grandson is not what they brought up and raised, the two old people will not bother to ask, and they will take care of the next generation. But they are such a grandson, they are still brought up from childhood, although they should still be there after a hundred years, Li Ping's father should still be there, but in fact, they know best what this eldest son is. When it was his turn to go to Xinjiang, it was actually the second son, who felt that the eldest son was short-tempered, grudge-bearing, too righteous, good-looking, and prone to trouble, so he went to Xinjiang for training. After so many years, not only has his temper not changed, but he also blames them for letting him go to Xinjiang with his younger brother back then. Now that they are still alive, they have already accused Li Ping, if they are gone, God knows what will happen to Li Ping. Thinking of this, they no longer have the luxury of hoping that Li Ping can add a son and satisfy their desire to live together for four generations, as long as Li Ping can find a kind girl who knows him cold and hot.
The old couple made an appointment and remembered that the "sheep" two years ago came. That girl is undoubtedly a kind-hearted person, but I don't know if I'm married? Since they don't have to think about their children, there should be people who think about it like this, and they are busy calling Li Ping early in the morning. Li Ping said that she should not be married, she is only twenty-one years old this year.
Okay, the difference of ten years is good, in this way, she can take care of Li Ping until she is old!
"Pingping, hurry up and find her, rural people get married early, you don't have that shop after this village, then you rent another house, and the rent is out of grandpa!"
Because Grandpa Li Ping didn't say it straight to the point, and that day happened to be the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, from 0:00, the sound of firecrackers to send the poor god and pick up the God of Wealth made Li Ping not sleep well, and he couldn't reflect it for a while. It wasn't until he went to the store and set off firecrackers to welcome the God of Wealth that he suddenly understood what his grandfather meant, and after being ecstatic for a while, he regretted it again.
After going to the back mountain of Tiger Hill that time, he knew that he had already fallen in love with Xiao Yang. But grandparents want to live in the same house for four generations, the age difference between the two is too big, and the mother is difficult to get along with, and he can't let her live a good life, so after that, although he is really busy, he doesn't meet her, but he is mainly afraid that he will be more painful. Later, when I went to see Aunt Cooking, I found that she was more beautiful, so I didn't dare to meet her. But just as he had feared, he was even more miserable in the last year, and his grandparents thought that his weight loss was due to being tired in the store and unhappy at home.
The blind date during the Chinese New Year directly made my mother say cruel words: I don't care about your affairs in the future! Although my father and mother always quarrel over trivial things on weekdays, they have the same attitude towards him, so my mother doesn't care, and my father doesn't care. But he knew that at home in the future, life would be even more difficult. With his mother's temper, because of him, he was said to be difficult to get along with, so naturally the account was on his head. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't earn much, he really wanted to rent a house outside, but he also knew that even if he had money, if he really rented a house outside, his good-looking father would not allow it. Now it should be better for grandparents to come forward, judging from grandpa's words, they don't care about the four generations in the same house now, so the only question now is whether Xiao Yang himself is willing.
