41. The peach blossoms are in full bloom
The second uncle, Xiao Kunshui, has a voice that is not as big as Xiao Kun, and his waist is not as straight as Xiao Kunguo, but he is no dragging his work than anyone else.
Under his leadership, Zou Huaili set up the livestock shed in less than a week, and when he had dinner at Xiao Zhengping's house that day, the drunk Zou Huaili couldn't help but give Xiao Zhengping a thumbs up, saying that he had such an expert in his own family, and he spent money to invite outsiders to do something.
After building the livestock shed, Xiao Zhengping asked Zou Huaili to repair the frame car, originally he wanted to make another frame car, but the second uncle stopped him immediately.
"That's not a difficult thing, I'll do it later, you don't need it now anyway." Xiao Kunshui said.
No matter what happens, Xiao Zhengping's junior team is set up like this - Chen Yan is a partner, and after discussion, the future income will be divided between the two of them; The second uncle is counted as a worker, with a salary of 25 yuan a month, and the forage money and potion money for livestock are counted as Xiao Zhengping's; Zhang Gouzi can only be regarded as a temporary worker, he can come if he wants, if he doesn't want to, Xiao Zhengping doesn't force it.
The time soon came to the end of April, Xiao Zhengping gathered two tons of fresh bamboo shoots and pulled them to He Yongfu's house with a bicycle and a rack car.
He Yongfu saw this battle, his eyes widened, "Pingzi, I haven't seen you for a month, you have changed your shotgun!" Look, this big car and small car, I'm afraid you can make this movement in our whole township. ”
Xiao Zhengping smiled, introduced the second uncle and Chen Yan to He Yongfu, and then instructed the two to pull the goods into the yard.
"Uncle Yongfu, it's not thanks to you that I have today, don't look at my movements, but without you, no matter how big my movements are, they will be in vain."
Xiao Zhengping wanted to leave after unloading, and when he left, he took a cigarette for He Yongfu, but was pushed back by He Yongfu.
"Coincidentally, Qiaoyun is at home today, let's leave after dinner."
Xiao Zhengping hurriedly excused himself, "Uncle, there is still a car tomorrow, I have to go back early to prepare, Boss Xia can't be delayed." ”
"Hey, what's that, you have a big car and a small car now, and it's not a matter of minutes to go back. Don't push it, it just so happens that your second uncle is also there, and this meal must be eaten today. ”
Although He Yongfu was still smiling, his tone could not be refused, Xiao Zhengping looked back at Chen Yan and the second uncle, and finally could only nod and agree.
When he came to He Yongfu's house, He Yongfu's wife smiled when she saw Xiao Zhengping, and pretended to be angry and asked Xiao Zhengping why he didn't come to the house to play, saying that he had known him for so long and couldn't treat Lao He as a businessman anymore.
He Qiaoyun still has that attitude, she loves to ignore it, and after saying hello, He Yongfu asked her to cook, and she was also full of grievances.
Chen Yan is a big grinning character, he dares to ask anything, and the second uncle is an older generation, and he Yongfu has a mess here and there, and the house is lively.
During the meal, He Yongfu forced Xiao Kunshui to drink a glass of wine, and then asked: "I heard Pingzi say that his parents died early, I guess you two have spent a lot of time." ”
Xiao Kunshui nodded, "It's as it should be, but fortunately, this kid is still angry, it's not in vain." ”
"Well, Pingzi is virtuous, and you teach it well. Hey, Pingzi has also reached the age of talking about marriage, you didn't think about telling him a partner? ”
After hearing this, Xiao Zhengping only felt that his breath was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't hold it for a while, so he coughed out.
Xiao Kunshui didn't react at this time, glanced at Xiao Zhengping, and said, "That's right, this kid is not small, it's really time to find him a daughter-in-law." ”
He Yongfu glanced at the empty bowl in front of Xiao Kunshui at this time, and shouted, "Qiaoyun, serve a bowl of rice to your uncle." ”
He Qiaoyun reluctantly stood up when he heard this, and then took Xiao Kunshui's bowl and left.
"This kid really doesn't have the eyesight to see it. Don't tell you, brother, our family Qiaoyun is twenty years old this year, and her mother and I are also worried about this! Seeing He Qiaoyun leaving, He Yongfu leaned in front of Xiao Kunshui and whispered.
Xiao Kunshui only understood the taste at this time, he looked at He Yongfu, and then at Xiao Zhengping, "Oh! That's it! Hey, Pingzi is poor, I'm afraid I can't climb high. ”
"You can't say that," He Yongfu moved away from Xiao Kunshui and poured him another glass of wine, and at this time, He Qiaoyun, who went to serve the meal, also came back, "Pingzi is willing to endure hardships, has affection, and can use his brains, don't look at how he is doing now, if you look at it in a few years, you will definitely be able to get ahead." ”
"Hehe, it's rare that you look up to him so much, so let's go home and discuss and see what to do about it."
Xiao Zhengping buried his head in the bowl and pretended not to hear. However, he understands very well what the second uncle means, and when he goes home to discuss, he prepares things, and the thing that needs to be done is to propose marriage.
At this time, he didn't dare to speak, if he agreed to marry He Qiaoyun home, it would not be enough to drink a pot of himself, but if he didn't agree, wouldn't he slap He Yongfu in the face in front of so many people!
He Yongfu was very happy, pulled Xiao Kunshui to drink a few more glasses, and when he left, he specially asked He Qiaoyun to send it away.
Of course, He Qiaoyun just sent it to the door and returned it.
Turning around and returning home, He Qiaoyun pouted and complained: "Dad, I can say that I want to marry you, but I won't marry anyway." Don't you see the old hat, it's a shame on the dead. ”
He Yongfu asked himself that he was also born in poverty, the family was passable in character and morality, and his son also entered the army, but this girl didn't know what was going on, and her eyes were higher than the sky.
"Oh, don't look at him like he is now, you will have a good life in the future. Let me tell you, he has no father or mother, he is down-to-earth and willing to work, seeing that he didn't bring the bamboo shoots today, he earned back a thousand yuan a month, such conditions, you can't find it with a lantern! ”
He Yongfu's wife also helped on the side, "Yes, Qiaoyun, don't look away, don't look at him dressed in tatters, pick up a little, but he's a handsome guy." ”
Where did you know that He Qiaoyun didn't enter the oil and salt, but still put on a disgusted expression and said: "I don't care, I won't marry anyway." I am also a father-in-law, and if I want to marry, I have to marry my father-in-law, no matter how rich he is, no matter how handsome he is, he is still a countryman, I don't want to follow him to farm and work as a coolie. ”
When He Yongfu heard this, he immediately became angry, slapped him on the dinner table, and shouted loudly: "What's wrong with the countryman, your father and I are also countrymen, and what you eat today is also the grain grown by the countryman!" I explained to you today, you have to marry if you want to, and you have to marry if you don't want to marry! ”
He Qiaoyun was frightened by her father, and cried out as soon as her mouth crooked, "I won't marry!" Don't marry! I might as well die if I marry him! ”
With that, he ran out of the house.
......
At the same time, Xiao Zhengping was also being "tortured" by the second uncle and Chen Yan.
"Pingzi, I think that girl is very handsome, her family conditions are good, I can take a fancy to you, you are lucky to be a kid, why don't you want to?"
"That's it, the girl's family took the initiative to come to the door, look at you, and put it on! It was me, and I would have climbed up the pole. ”
Xiao Zhengping reprimanded angrily: "Then you climb, no one will stop you." After finishing it, he said to the second uncle, "Second uncle, you still don't know what the conditions of our family are?" Don't say whether I want to or not, He Qiaoyun has a pair of eyes in the sky, she can't tell if she is willing or not! ”
"Are you willing?"
"I don't want to! Second uncle, following me is indispensable to endure hardships and suffering, like He Qiaoyun, they can't get along with me at all. ”
"What then? Everyone took the initiative to speak! ”
Xiao Zhengping smiled, "Don't worry, we don't necessarily have to speak, He Qiaoyun may have already made trouble." ”
