Several relatives almost praised this girl to the sky. Not only is she good-looking, but her family conditions are also good. She is an only child. Her parents are both long-term workers. The girl's mother is also a teacher.
The most important thing is that the girl is young. She is only twenty years old this year, almost ten years younger than Lu Feng.
People in small places have narrow vision. They can only imagine a rich man's significant other, that is, a beautiful little wife.
I heard from Uncle Lu Feng that they had no intention of getting married. They heard that the son of the old Lu family was promising, and many people persuaded me to get him married.
Although Lu Feng runs a company, in the eyes of local people, it is still not as secure as a state-owned enterprise. The most important thing is that Lu Feng is not only married for the second time, but also really old. The woman's family is also afraid that outsiders will say that he has given money to others for money.
My daughter found an old man.
"Second old man?" Lu Feng sat on the bed and looked down at himself, as if he had indeed eaten a little in the past two years.
"Don't blame my aunt for being blunt. You are about to be thirty years old. The children of people in the same generation as you have gone out to work. Do you remember Wang Laowu? When he was a child, he always had a big nose, and he married when he was sixteen.
You are a daughter-in-law, and the child was born the next year. He is one year older than you, and the child is fourteen years old this year." My aunt sat aside and said.
Lu Feng sat there blankly, knowing that more than twenty years later, at his age, there would still be many people shamelessly saying that he was a boy.
"If you say so, then he is an old man." Lu Feng nodded helplessly.
"You were delayed by Xiaoyan. Otherwise, if the children are older now, go back to the village and see who is the father of two children around the same age as you?"
If the most talked about thing outside is business, then the most difficult thing to face when returning home is the concern of relatives at home. Sometimes Lu Feng also wonders whether he can't face those embarrassing answers or is he embarrassed when facing his family.
Different from more than 20 years later, if you don't get married now, not to mention the village, all the villages around you will be your legend, allowing you to realize what it means to be truly formidable.
The meal in the evening was very rich. There are not many vegetables in the winter in the north. Various bean sprouts, stored cabbage, radishes and potatoes are the most popular vegetables.
Coupled with stewed chicken, it is definitely a feast that ordinary people cannot eat on weekdays.
The sky had just darkened at night, and the county was almost completely dark. Not to mention street lights, there were only a few traffic lights. The bright moon outside the window was so bright, and after the news broadcast on the TV, it was prime time TV dramas.
Lu Feng had not slept on the kang for several years, and tonight he decided to sleep on the kang. His mother and some relatives went upstairs to rest, and Lu Feng came and took down a quilt after a while.
After laying out the bedding, my mother told him to go to bed early and helped him carry the urine bucket in.
It was past eight-thirty, and only a few channels were still showing TV series. Other brands were already in vain. Lu Feng often went to bed at eleven or twelve in the south, but now he didn't know what to do.
He had laid out the bedding himself, without a mobile phone or the Internet. He sat on the kang and stared blankly at the bedding. These beddings were made of cotton bought at home and were very thick, especially the quilt. It felt like he was pressed against his body.
It's a person lying down, solid and reassuring.
Lu Feng, who always had an irregular schedule and liked evenings, got into bed before nine o'clock, turned off the TV, reached for the edge of the kang, found a light cord and pulled it, and the whole world went dark.
There is no need to worry about being disturbed by the bustling city, and there is no need to bother with blackout curtains. There is nothing else in this world except the distant barking of dogs.
This kang was too hard, and a fire had been burning under it for another day. People were like barbecues on the rock slab. In the morning, when the sky was dim, Lu Feng climbed out of the bed and looked for water all over the world. He jumped off the kang and scooped it with a red ladle.
I took half a cup of water and drank it in one breath. After drinking it, I felt a little cold.
A layer of ice had already formed in the bucket, and the heat from last night had been exhausted in the night. At this moment, the room was like an ice cellar. Lu Feng peed and quickly got into bed.
"Xiao Feng, are you awake? I'll light the stove for you!" Dad's voice came from outside the house.
In these years, this should be the first time that Lu Feng celebrates the New Year at home. Since he became this Lu Feng, he has never felt the warmth of this home.
Dad dragged a piece of dead branch, walked in, cleaned out the ashes from the stove, and quickly broke the branch into small sections. In a moment, the flames started to burst into flames in the stove.
"Today I'm going to see your grandma and grandma, and I'll buy some things later. You haven't been there in the past few years. I always give you some money during holidays." Dad ordered.
"OK!"
As the room warmed up, Lu Feng put on his clothes and took the urine bucket out by himself. The world outside had become white overnight. The snow was shin-deep under his feet, but a path had been cleared to lead directly to the courtyard gate.
Lu Feng didn't have a car, so he had to call Gao Zhiwei in the morning and asked him to borrow a car from his factory for a while. Gao Zhiwei was very happy to hear that Lu Feng was back and asked him to let Lu Feng stay for a few more days.
He came back immediately after the New Year.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, a Hutou Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of his house. Lu Feng drove the car and bought some gifts. He wanted to buy something good, but what good things could be found in the county town.
Fortunately, when I came back, I brought some specialties and so on. I divided them into several portions and drove them in a car towards the village. On the way, Lu Feng suggested that the elderly in the family move into the city and buy a house with his own money.
, and even mentioned asking my parents to move to the south.
Money is a good thing, you can buy a lot of it, but my parents have lived here for half their lives, and their interpersonal relationships are all here. If they move out rashly, not to mention losing their relatives and friends, they will not adapt to the environment, and I am afraid that they can’t even understand what they are saying.
.
The two elderly people also have difficulty with their legs and feet. Going to the city will cause a lot of troubles, and they are not as comfortable as in the village.
When we arrived at the place, we naturally greeted him for dinner. The old man was very happy to see Lu Feng and asked questions. They didn't know anything about business. They just cared about whether you were married and had children.
I visited two families in one day, and they all tried to persuade Lu Feng that it was time for him to find someone to settle down with. He was almost thirty years old and it was time for him to settle down.
Hearing that there was a very good girl, the two old men persuaded Lu Feng to seize her. It is not easy to find a wife now.
Lu Feng didn't say much. In addition to giving some New Year gifts to the family, he also gave tens of thousands of yuan and asked them if they would like to live in the city. The elders of both families said that they were used to living in the village and it would not be difficult to go to the city.
adapt.
Before leaving, Lu Feng felt that he should build a new house for the two elderly people. As for how many relatives were involved, Lu Feng didn't want to think about it that much. At most, it would cost several times the price.
In the past few years, all the relatives in the family have become rich to some extent, so the elderly in the family will naturally not be poor, but Lu Feng still feels that he has not taken good care of it. Compared with his own big villa, it is indeed shabby.
When I got home that day, before I even got off the car, I found a middle-aged woman standing in front of my house. She looked to be in her forties and was wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket.
Lu Feng's mother got out of the car and said hurriedly: "It's so cold, Erba, what the hell are you doing standing here?"
"Isn't this good news for you? That girl originally said she wouldn't come back until the Chinese New Year, but she called back yesterday and said she would come back tomorrow," the woman said with an excited expression.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'm waiting here in the cold weather. Come in quickly." My mother politely invited me in.
After entering the house, Lu Feng looked at the matchmaker, and the matchmaker also looked at him. He praised the child for not looking old. He couldn't tell that he was almost thirty years old. He was good-looking and energetic. The woman would definitely be able to do that.
Hit it at a glance.
Lu Feng didn't know whether she was really complimenting her or just saying it politely. Being accustomed to big scenes, he didn't know what to say and could only stand there in shock.
Before leaving, Lu Feng's mother brought a lot of dried fruits and candies, and both sides exchanged polite greetings.
At the dinner table in the evening, my father, who was always a man of few words, said this time that if Lu Feng fell in love with him, he would start a family and have a child as soon as possible. What would it be like to not have a child?
Lu Feng didn't quite understand their thoughts, but after only a few days in the past two years, he could only nod along with their ideas.
As for the mention of children at home, Lu Feng suddenly remembered Zhang Fengxia who was far away on the other side of the ocean. After dinner, Lu Feng calculated the time difference and used his home landline to call, but it turned out that there was no international line at home, so he couldn't get through at all.
He had no choice but to drive to the phone booth in the county center. As soon as he got out of the car, Lu Feng stamped his feet vigorously to shake the snow and mud under his feet. Suddenly he heard a female voice not far away shouting: "Stop pestering me."
No? It’s impossible for us!”
"How is it impossible? Why are you like this? How can I be sorry for you?" the boy asked.
The sky has darkened. As the wind gets stronger, there are fewer people on the street. There is so much excitement in this place with little entertainment. It is like a fire on a winter night. The fire of gossip instantly burns up. I squint my eyes into the dim place.
Look.
"You are very nice, but my mother told me that I could never marry someone like you." The girl broke free from the boy's hand and scolded him to let go.
"Just say, wow, what do you want? You said, you just said you wanted that star today, and I will pick it for you." The boy was in a state of a sad drama, but the dialect made this scene slightly funny.
.
"Does your family have a car?" the girl asked.
"Didn't your family say they wanted a motorcycle at first? I bought a 125 in the south, but now you tell me that you want a car?" The boy looked very angry and shouted, "What kind of family can afford one now?"
Car? Not to mention cars, how many people from all over the country can afford a 125 motorcycle?"
"I don't care, if you can't afford it, someone else can!"
The weather was really too cold. Lu Feng wanted to watch the whole scene, but the weather was not kind. The wind felt like a knife cutting his face. The most important thing was that this kind of ordinary drama was really boring.
Lu Feng stuffed his hands into each other's sleeves and walked towards the phone booth!
