This statement originally made sense, and even carried the concept of "delaying myself for two years for my younger brother" that was particularly in line with the patriarchal tone of the elderly...
Song Tan gave himself a thumbs up.
But who would have known that grandma would take a different path!
"You kid! What do you mean by that? Did your parents teach you this? This Ulan, did I teach her this?"
Grandma looked solemn and spoke sincerely:
"Tantan, you can't think like this. Qiaoqiao is Qiaoqiao, and you are you. If Qiaoqiao is in trouble, please help him. No one will take care of him. Please help him and don't let him starve... These are your brothers
The relationship between you and me is your responsibility as a sister."
"But you can't delay yourself just because of Qiao Qiao! You have to take care of yourself first, and then you can live a good life!"
How precious is a girl’s youth!
Grandma said with extra force: "Besides, what are the good conditions and the right match... When looking at a person, you can't just look at the conditions, you have to look at his character! As long as people are of the same mind, it doesn't matter if the family is poor."
"You just have 1.8 million in your hand and you find someone in the city who has no house or car. If people look down on you, won't they still think you are a farmer?"
"So, money is not the next best thing. As long as we, girls, stand upright and cherish ourselves, they are all external things, and we can always live a good life!"
Song Tan was greatly shocked.
Just...her grandma's philosophy was very reasonable, but her understanding was too little and too one-sided.
It's just...it would be better if you don't rush the marriage.
She could only use the powerless method of delaying: "Don't rush, don't rush, let's talk in two years, let's talk in two years..."
Grandma was not in a hurry:
"It's okay, we're not in a hurry. I'll stay in the village for a while and see who has that good young man. I'll leave it for you first..."
Song Tan:......
She thought to herself, have I cultivated the land and grown a talent show? Should I keep it for myself? How can I keep it?
How is it that her grandma is more difficult to communicate with than her grandma? It is clear that she has a lot of problems, and the stubbornness of the Lao Wu family is the same!
Moreover, she was really afraid that her grandma would go and inquire about it in a decent manner——
Song Tan is not boasting, but her current conditions are indeed excellent from all over the country. Mother-in-law wants a daughter-in-law who can make money, and men want a beautiful girlfriend... This is all human nature.
If grandma leaks the news, and people actually go to the fields to harvest rice, even if they don't agree, won't they still have to pay for a meal and the favor of the family?
It’s all trouble!
At this moment, I could only pretend to sigh:
"Grandma, you don't know, there is actually a very good man who is pursuing me. He even traveled thousands of miles to send me a bouquet of flowers a while ago... But he is a bit far away, and he has not yet made up his mind to settle down in our hometown with me."
"I didn't agree."
"Isn't this... let's wait and see for now, don't ask around. If word gets out later, people will think I'm trying to find a spare tire!"
Grandma frowned:
"You didn't agree, so this doesn't sound like love? Why can't you find a spare tire?"
She thought about it and said something very insightful: "I don't think you can do this. No matter how people talk about gender equality now, that man has been educated like this since he was a child. Just like your grandfather, he loves saving face."
Grandpa, who didn't dare to say a word in the back seat, widened his eyes: ...What did I do?
I heard my grandma analyze it further: "For a grown man who doesn't have a career of his own, what is the point of working at the woman's house? Unless he has so much assets that even the village won't believe him when he says it, otherwise he will still have to do it behind his back.
Said he came to visit."
"You said that a home-based son-in-law is so thin-skinned among other men that he can't stand people's comments. Even if he is open-minded, over time, no matter how good a relationship is, it is easy to get into trouble...it's not safe."
Song Tan:...misstep.
When her grandma became serious, she was even more reasonable.
So I had to act more confused:
"Grandma, what you said makes sense...but that man is very good-looking and matches me well."
Grandma straightened her waist instantly and became more energetic: "What does it look like? Do you have a photo of it? Show me!"
Song Tan: ...I don’t even know who this person is, how can I show it to you?
She was riding a tiger and it was hard to get off. At this moment, she had no choice but to smile: "That won't work. This matter has not been settled yet. I will show it to grandma when I am sure."
While letting out a long sigh of relief, I thought to myself, I must tell my family about this as soon as I get home.
It really doesn't work... I can only sacrifice Brother Yanping first!
He is old and has no one, so he is a good candidate!
If that doesn't work, there will be Xin Jun and Wu Lei...
Thinking of this, Song Tan felt stable again.
…
At the same time, Lu Chuan, the "brother-in-law" who refused to return to his hometown with Song Tan, was lying on the mat, struggling to maintain his plank position.
】
There was an eye-catching alarm clock in front of him, and big beads of sweat fell one by one from his forehead and chin. As he watched the 49 minutes and 32 seconds above keep beating forward, the shock in his heart became even greater——
Not quite right.
Anyone who has ever exercised knows that core strength is not achieved overnight, but is accumulated bit by bit over time.
Before his car accident, he could only hold a plank for ten minutes at most at a time.
But since the car accident, even...
Lu Chuan's eyes couldn't help but move towards his naked arm.
It's not an illusion, the marks on his body are really getting dull, and you can even see large pieces of dead skin peeling off the scars every now and then.
It seems as if the whole body is repairing rapidly...
He was making up stories, and it was inevitable that he would fantasize about adventures after a car accident.
But in the end, Lu Chuan just laughed for a moment - making up stories is all about making up stories, but he can't cause problems with his own brain.
Thinking of this, the air in my chest deflated, and then I couldn't hold on any longer, so I stopped holding the plank at 52 minutes.
After doing a few random stretching exercises, today's exercise is over.
…
After briefly washing up, Lu Chuan opened the door and came to the terrace.
The terrace is extremely hot in July, so the awnings have been pulled up early. The fragrant floral fragrance is carried by the wind and echoes softly in the breath. Not only does it not make people feel dizzy, but it makes people feel more relaxed.
Refreshing.
Because the weather is too hot, many roses have grown out of standard and their petals are falling off.
He walked to the pink Longsha rose on the side and carefully observed the leaves——
No.
Nothing at all.
The red spider mites, powdery mildew, and even black spots that were the most troublesome in previous years are now gone.
But this year, he didn't even have time to spray the medicine. The only thing he used was the golden tobacco leaves that were always soaked in the bucket in the corner.
Thinking about the smell of tea and honey at home, Lu Chuan couldn't help but once again have some very unscientific fantasies...
