Xu Yin looked at him jokingly: "What? Are you interested? Do you know what it means to have a son-in-law at home?"
"Yeah, I'm interested and I know."
"..."
Most people are so frightened when they hear the knock on the door that they don't even have time to retreat, but this guy comes to their door on his own initiative? Is there anything wrong with it?
Xu Yin probed his forehead: "The fever has gone away."
Xu Chengjin looked at her seriously and said word by word: "I am very awake. So, can I do it?"
"Eat first, and then talk after eating."
Xu Yin lit the kerosene lamp and put it on the table. She went to the kitchen and brought a bowl of porridge over. It was neither hot nor cold, but just right for eating.
"As soon as the fever subsides, I won't give you pickles and pickles, which are salty side dishes for porridge. If you think they are too bland, how about adding some brown sugar to them?"
"No, it's fine just like this." Xu Chengjin took the bowl, drank it one sip after another, and finished it quickly.
He put down the bowl, raised his eyelids, and looked at Xu Yin: "We can talk."
Xu Yin: "..."
No, brother, I am not in a hurry to recruit a new wife. Are you so anxious?
"Can you really accept the intrusion?" Xu Yin sat at the table, holding her cheek and looking at him curiously and asked, "Most men can't accept this. After all, after marriage, you have to settle in the woman's family, and the child will bear the woman's surname.
I can accept it, but it’s not a difficult situation for parents to go through.”
That's why she agreed with Comrade Xu Laosan's theory of "recruiting a son-in-law" because she was sure that no one would want to be her son-in-law, so that she could live happily for a few more years.
Xu Chengjin lowered his eyes and chuckled self-deprecatingly: "Wouldn't it be great if you have no father and no mother and choose to marry into your wife?"
Xu Yin was stunned for a moment: "You..."
"Eight years ago, my father reported my grandfather to the police. Not only that, but to protect his own safety, he also divorced my mother in the newspaper and married Shangfeng's divorced sister. My mother was a strong-willed person. After learning the truth, he divorced me.
A barrel of kerosene was going to die with them. My father tied me up and pushed me to my mother..."
"Stop talking." Xu Yin's heart ached, and she vaguely guessed the outcome.
However, he continued to describe the disintegrated original family in an understatement:
"My mother stopped her hand in time, but the torch had already been lit. In order to prevent me from getting hurt, she jumped from the four-story tower with a kerosene barrel in her arms... When my grandfather learned about it, he blamed himself and died of illness while he was still under investigation.
Grandma, who has been depressed for many days, also went there. So, you can think that I am alone without a father or a mother."
Xu Yin didn't know what to say for a while.
But he chuckled slightly: "Don't think too highly of me. I have my own selfish motives for wanting to be your house son-in-law."
Xu Yin nodded clearly: "I guessed it. Do you want to avoid the woman on the mountain?"
"This is just one. The second is that I want to move away from the educated youth station."
Being hit once was enough for him to recognize human nature.
He thought that after seeing too much darkness in this world, the armor of his heart had been tempered hard enough, but he still underestimated it. When he thought about the person who usually has the eldest brother and the short brother, betraying his teammates just for a mere spot, and his scumbag
When my father tried hard, he would feel sick and have stomach cramps.
But my grandfather once said: When your wings are not full, the best way is to lie dormant. The day when you have the strength to overthrow the opponent is the real moment of counterattack.
He needs a safe and trustworthy dormant environment.
Xu Yin pondered: "Then we are considered partners? Or..."
Xu Chengjin looked at her with a half-smile: "Whatever you want, I can do it."
"..." Xu Yin glared at him, "Don't be so playful, I'm serious! If you have the opportunity to return to the city in a few years, will you go back? Or..."
"No." Xu Chengjin said seriously, "I won't go back to the city. Otherwise, why don't I compete for the recommendation spot?"
Xu Yin looked at him suspiciously: "If you have the chance to go back to the city, you won't go back? Are you willing to stay in the country all your life?"
"There's nothing wrong with being in the countryside." He rested his hands on his hands, lay down on the bed, looked at the dark roof above his head, and said leisurely, "Besides, isn't there you? My future wife."
Xu Yin: "..."
The "he" in this small world seems to be a shameless person.
Yesterday, Xu Laosan and his wife, one of them were digging and carrying mud at the reservoir, and the other was topdressing fertilizer in the cornfield. They were both very tired. After dinner, they went to bed and fell asleep with pillows on them. They slept relatively soundly and had no idea that their second daughter was so shocking.
Measures.
It wasn't until the next morning that I found out: they had an extra son-in-law overnight. He was the kind who came to the house voluntarily.
Xu Laosan: "..."
Chen Huilan: "..."
Xu Lan was so surprised that her scream could tear the roof off: "Ahhhh!!! Teacher Xu has become my second brother-in-law?"
Xu Yin picked her ears: This girl definitely has the potential to sing dolphin music. Why don't we send her to pursue an acting career, and others will go to her in the future?
The couple was shocked and then ecstatic:
"Teacher Xu is really willing to come to your door?"
"Young man has a good eye!"
"Oh, then I have to quickly find some cotton and cotton cloth, and prepare the wedding bed and quilt."
"I went to my old man's house and asked Jianjun to borrow the green military uniform and white shirt he wore when he got married. My father-in-law is the first to be a son-in-law, so he has to dress more formally!"
It's fair to say that Chen Huilan is looking for cotton, but why is Xu Laosan borrowing clothes to support his appearance?
Xu Yin had a black line: "Dad! Don't cause trouble!"
What if he falls and hurts his leg on the way to borrow clothes? With his temperament, he might blackmail the uncle's family. Wouldn't it be closer to the plot again?
"What do you mean by making trouble? I'm just borrowing some clothes. I'm Jianjun's third uncle. He won't refuse."
"Have you forgotten? Sister Yuanyuan is getting married on the first day of August. Brother Jianjun, as the brother-in-law, is going to see her off. He will definitely dress more formally then. How can I lend you any clothes?"
"Then our two families don't hold weddings on the same day." Speaking of the wedding day, Xu Laosan turned to his wife and asked, "Last time you said which days in the second half of the year would be good days?"
These days, you should not be too public about choosing a date, lest you be accused of being old feudal. Chen Huilan also heard what her mother-in-law said:
"The first day of August, the fifth day of September, and the fifteenth day of September are all good days. My sister-in-law was worried that she might change her mind if it took too long, so she decided to fix it on the first day of August."
When Xu Laosan heard this, everyone in the family was worried about changing their minds when marrying their daughters, so wouldn't they be even more worried about recruiting a son-in-law into their own family?
"Then our family will also celebrate the first day of August."
"Isn't this bad?"
Xu Yin raised her head and said, "Can we fix the date later? Go to work first!"
She really doesn't want to be the head of the family, but this family is not decent.
"Then my clothes..." Xu Laosan felt unspeakable grievance, "I don't even have any decent clothes. You just remember to make new clothes for your mother and your sister. How come you forgot about your father and me!"
Xu Yin: "..."
OK, it's her fault, not a bowl of water is even.
"I'll buy you one." Xu Chengjin, who was quietly listening to the family's interaction, suddenly spoke up.
"..."
The family was discussing so enthusiastically that they forgot that my uncle was still there.
Xu Laosan rubbed his hands in embarrassment: "It makes me laugh, our family is a little poor. But don't worry, my daughter said that our family will definitely get rich in the future, and we will make that muffled fortune!"
Xu Yin: "..."
Although she was embarrassed to meet Xu Chengjin's eyes, she could bet that he must be smiling at the moment.
Humph! Do you think I’m talking big words? You don’t know anything about your strength!
Just wait and see! When it opens in a few years, I’m sure it will surprise you!
