Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 184 His arrangements for Guan Lei behind the dog

At this moment, Guan Lei really has no complaints in his heart. Because of his family, it is naturally impossible to compare with a family where his parents are still alive. Some rules and procedures can be slowed down and reduced as much as possible.

Besides, it's not that he doesn't know how to adapt, he's just very stubborn about certain things.

Guan Lei's parents left early. Even if Wu Zhouquan, Han Fang, and Wu Hailong were in charge of Guan Hua's marriage, the final decision would definitely be made by Guan Mei and Guan Lei. If they didn't nod, the three of Wu Zhouquan would not It's impossible to mess around.

Besides, Xu Ning just used a gentler and euphemistic way of talking to Wang Hu's parents. There was no deception, it was just a time difference.

Looking at the expression on Guan Lei's face, Xu Ning hooked his shoulder, greeted the village party secretary and others, and walked towards the courtyard.

On the way, Xu Ning muttered to him. First, he said that he was Guan Hua's brother and he would show up when necessary. Second, he explained to him whether the character of Wang Hu's parents would be a good destination for Guan Hua. ? Let Guan Lei have his own style.

Wu Haiquan and Li Fuqiang, who were following behind, were also chatting, mainly about the way Xu Ning did things.

Wu Haiquan usually does things in a strict manner. He rarely comes into contact with people like Xu Ning, so he admires and is curious about Xu Ning's way of speaking. He asked Li Fuqiang why Xu Ning could think of such a trick.

Because this method can reduce some unnecessary troubles, not only make Wang Hu's parents happy, but also make this matter proceed smoothly. Although there are some minor flaws, they are not a big deal at all.

Li Fuqiang told everyone about Xu Ning's deeds in Qing'an. He highlighted two words, one was 'rampant' and the other was 'damage', which made Wu Haiquan and others' brains go numb.

Wu Haitao shrank his neck and said that no one should be provoked by Brother Ning. This move was like a chain of tricks, even if he had eight heads, he would be confused.

It made everyone laugh.

Back at Guan's house, everyone sat around the Kang, drinking water and smoking while chatting.

Wang Hu and Li Fuqiang talked a lot about Xu Ning, allowing the three Wu brothers and Guan Lei to understand more easily what kind of person Xu Ning is.

Li Fuqiang clapped his legs and said: "My brother must be very particular, otherwise why would I listen to him at such an old age? Before I left, my wife told me that I must listen to my brother, otherwise she won't let him wait until I get home. I'll get on the kang, and let me roll to the outhouse and get into the stove pit to sleep!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

Later, Wu Haiquan and Xu Ning chatted about when they would return to Qing'an. Xu Ning meant to leave the day after tomorrow, because it would give Wang Hu and Guan Hua more time to spend time together.

And Xu Ning also had to chat with Wu Zhouquan. After all, he and Han Fang were considered Guan Hua's elders.

However, Wu Haiquan thought that they should stay for a few more days. After all the hard work, they just stayed for two days. Before the brothers got to know each other, why should they rush home? They should hurry up and enhance the relationship between the brothers. ?

He and Xu Ning argued for a long time about this, and it was Guan Lei who finally persuaded the two to compromise, and then decided to leave the day after tomorrow.

That night, everyone was arguing and chatting in full swing. It was almost twelve o'clock before everyone got into bed and went to sleep.

However, they did not sleep in two separate rooms, but all crowded together on the kang in the east room.

Until seven o'clock the next morning, Han Fang waited at home for them but they didn't come, so she came to Lao Guan's house. She saw no one in the west room through the window glass, and she felt a little embarrassed. When she came to the east room window and took a look, she suddenly laughed. made a sound.

These little guys were sleeping with their arms and legs stretched out, and Han Fang smiled and murmured: "They are getting along pretty well emotionally."

In fact, Wu Haiquan had been tense these past two days, but he had a good chat with Xu Ning and others last night and gradually relaxed, which is why he slept so hard.

After Xu Ning and others woke up one after another, Wu Haiquan woke up leisurely, took the cigarette handed over by Li Fuqiang, and took a puff.

Immediately, everyone was joking while putting on clothes and folding quilts. Han Fang, who was sitting on the kang in the west room, heard the noise and hurriedly came over to say hello.

"Mom, why did you come here before?" Wu Haitao met Han Fang as soon as he arrived at the outhouse, and he was shocked.

"You guys stayed in the room and snorted before going to bed, so I came here. Oh, you guys slept so deeply!" Han Fang said with a smile.

"Who? Auntie, hey, we were chatting last night." Wu Haiquan stretched his legs to the ground.

"Come on, come on, you guys, hurry up and get dressed. I'll go back and take a look at the food."

"Hey, aunt, is my dad gone?"

Han Fang turned around and said, "Can we leave? He can let you go. Besides, Er Ning is here, so he can't leave."

"Ah, then you go back first, we will go there later."

After Han Fang left, Xu Ning, Guan Lei and others went to the latrine one after another to solve their personal problems, then came back to rub their faces and feel refreshed, and then they put on their cotton-padded jackets and walked to Lao Wu's house.

When they reached the main courtyard, Wu Zhouliang and his brother stood at the door, looking at them and smiling.

Xu Ning and others greeted each other, while Wu Haiquan stood in front of his father, looking at Wu Zhouliang's old face, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Although he had never cared about it when he was a child, now Wu Zhouliang has really done his best, making Wu Haiquan unable to find fault at all.

Wu Zhouliang smiled: "Come in."

"Eh."

After everyone entered the house, Wang Hu deliberately stayed half a step and looked at Guan Hua, who was taking out the pot and rice bowl in the outer room.

Guan Hua felt a little embarrassed and turned her head away to pick up the rice bowl from the pot.

At this time, Wang Hu thought of Xu Ning's advice to him, which gave him a bit of insight. If he said anything in the past, it would be fine, but now it is different. He and Guan Hua are already in this situation. If he doesn't worry about his father-in-law's performance, , isn’t that just a matter of ignorance?

"I come!"

Wang Hu trotted up to Guan Hua, bent down and glanced at Guan Hua's delicate red face.

He grabbed the rag with both hands and stretched it into the pot, and whispered: "My parents already know, let's see what my second brother tells his uncle and aunt later."

Guan Hua pursed her lips and said, "Well, what do your parents say?"

"I'm always satisfied with you."

"Ah? Then my parents..."

Wang Hu is now learning and selling, "My parents said that if we are successful, you will be their biological daughter! I am the eldest son in my family, and you will be the sister-in-law at home. Your family status is higher than that of me and the dog."

Guan Hua was stunned for a moment, and her delicate red face became rosy again, "Ah, what about your little brother?"

"He ranks behind the dogs."

"Ha ha!"

Xu laughed too loudly, and Guan Hua hurriedly covered her mouth, but she was still heard by Guan Mei and Han Fang who came out to serve the food. They looked at each other, held back their laughter and entered the house.

Everyone took their seats in the room. Han Fang came in and said with a grin: "Who said tigers are stupid? I think tigers are the smartest."

Guan Mei put down the dish and explained: "Hu Zi put it down in the outer room and made Hua'er laugh after two or three sentences. The two of them get along very well."

Xu Ning smiled and nodded, indicating that Wang Hu had made progress during the time he had been hanging around with him. Regardless of whether he was running around in the mountains or chatting and doing things, Wang Hu was much better than before.

Wu Haiquan said with a smile: "You have been with your brother for so long, why can't you learn a few tricks?"

Li Fuqiang, Wu Haiquan and others laughed, which stunned the two brothers Wu Zhouliang because they did not understand what the children were laughing at.

"Dad, Er Ning is the best ghost, let's chat while eating later!" Wu Haiquan said.

Wu Zhouliang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Hey, let's eat first, I'm not leaving today."

At this time, Guan Hua opened the door curtain and Wang Hu walked in carrying the rice bowl.

When everyone saw this scene, they all laughed and praised Wang Hu one after another, blushing and waving their hands in praise of him. After Xu Ning pulled him to sit down, Wu Zhouliang asked them to use their chopsticks because they got up too late, and the Wu Zhouliang brothers drank some wine last night and didn't eat anything at all. Now they are hungry.

But no matter how hungry they are, they still have to wait for Wu Haiquan, Xu Ning and others.

After breakfast, it was past eight o'clock. Han Fang and Guan Hua were washing dishes and pots in the outer room, Guan Mei was coaxing the baby to breastfeed in the west room, and Wu Zhouliang, Xu Ning and others were in the room, sitting on the kang. Chatting and chatting on the edge of the Kang and on the bench.

At first, they talked about some of the deeds of Xu Ning, Li Fuqiang and Wang Hu. Wu Haiquan, Wu Hailong and others also talked about their childhood. Even though everyone in the room had listened to it many times, they still listened intently and added a few words from time to time.

After Han Fang entered the room, he brought the topic to Wang Hu and Guan Hua in a few words, discussing how the two parties should meet.

Wu Zhouquan pinched the cigarette butt, pinched half of the cigarette in his hand, and said, "Shitou, you are Hua'er's brother, what do you think?"

Guan Lei sat on the edge of the kang and said dully, "Uncle, I listen to you."

Wu Zhouquan smiled and said: "I know you are obedient, but it's time for you to make the decision, Xiaomei? You two should study it carefully."

Guan Lei looked at his eldest sister Guan Mei and opened her mouth, but did not reveal her true feelings.

Guan Mei came over and patted his arm and said: "If you have anything to say, just say it. You are the master of our family. If you don't make the decision, who will? How do you arrange it and how can we listen. Leizi, you are not young anymore. You have been there since you were a child." Just have the right idea and say what you need to say."

Guan Lei nodded and took a puff of cigarette, glanced at Xu Ning's side face, and said: "Uncle, this is what I think, since Hua'er and Huzi have looked at each other, then this matter must be dealt with.

My brother Ning has already made arrangements for his family. Now it’s time to decide who among us will go to Qing’an. I definitely have to go. Firstly, it’s about the flowers. Secondly, I want to go to the forest farm to exercise.

Uncle, you don't want to persuade me on this matter. It's time for me to go out and have a career. This is what I have been thinking about for a long time. If you arrange work for me in the future, and if it is better than mine, then I will definitely have to listen to your arrangements, okay? "

Wu Zhouquan nodded heavily as he listened to his words. In fact, he really didn't want Guan Lei to go out, because if something happened to Guan Lei outside, how could he go down to see his brother after a hundred years?

But Guan Lei has already said this, so he can only nod.

"Then who do you want to arrange to go to Qing'an?"

Guan Lei grabbed the cigarette case and matchbox and stood up, walked over to Wu Zhouquan and Wu Zhouliang, and said, "Even if there are no flowers, my eldest brother will definitely have to go."

Wu Haiquan nodded: "That's cool!"

Guan Lei continued: "This is my first time going to Qing'an. You, my aunt, my sister, and my brother-in-law are all looking at Hu Zi. We are all very satisfied with Hu Zi, so we have to let Hu Zi's parents look at Hua'er. Ah, right?"

Han Fang leaned against the door and nodded: "Satisfied!"

"So this time is not considered an in-laws meeting, so there is no need for you and my aunt to go there. I will take Hua'er and my brother-in-law to go first. If Huzi's parents are satisfied, then Huzi and Hua'er can have more time together. After all, the two of them Even though he is not very young, I still need to hear what Huzi’s parents have to say.”

After saying that, Guan Lei leaned on the edge of the kang, looked at Wu Zhouquan, Han Fang, Wu Hailong and others, and asked: "Uncle and aunt, what do you think?"

Xu Ning and Li Fuqiang nodded secretly, it was related to Lei's arrangement.

Due to special family reasons, the parents who could serve as representatives could not come forward, so this arrangement had to be made.

Why not let Wu Zhouquan and Han Fang come forward? The two of them are at most Guanhua's elders, so they definitely can't go at this juncture. If it comes to discussing the wedding ceremony, it would be most appropriate to come forward.

Moreover, the two families are far apart, more than 200 miles away, so a trip will take two or three days. It is impossible to go back on the same day and have to stay overnight in Qing'an.

After Guan Lei finished speaking, Han Fang remained silent. She turned to look at Wu Zhouquan.

Wu Zhouquan nodded when he heard this and sighed: "The stone is mature, this is how it must be done! OK, I listen to you."

Guan Lei smiled silently, and everyone nodded.

At this time, Han Fang said: "Er Ning, if the stone really stays in the forest farm, you will have to help me."

Xu Ning waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, if I leave Qing'an alone, in the words of my elder brother, it will be a smooth sailing!"

Everyone laughed when they heard this. Even though Xu Ning was suspected of bragging, these words touched the hearts of Wu Zhouquan and Han Fang.

Wu Zhouquan made a final decision and said, "Then it's settled. When the time comes, Hai Quan will drive and Hai Long will follow. Let Hu Zi's parents take a look at our Hua'er first."

"Eh!"

Now that this was over, they chatted about other things.

Guan Mei took Guan Hua to the outer room and whispered a few instructions.

"Hua, you have to say something when you come to Qing'an. Don't always keep your head down. We are not bad in appearance. Now you and Huzi are both happy with it. Your brother and I are also very attracted to Huzi. Then you You have to make the tiger’s parents rare.”

Guan Hua nodded and whispered: "Sister, Huzi said that his parents are always satisfied with me."

Guan Mei was stunned when she heard this, "Ah, is that right... We haven't met each other yet."

"Huzi called his parents last night and told them about our family and my situation."

Guan Mei nodded: "Then Huzi's parents will miss you. You have to behave well. I think Huzi is good and his family conditions are also good."

"Well, Huzi also said that I have a higher status than him when I go to his house. His younger brothers are ranked behind dogs."

"Why are you kidding me? Hey, you girl, you listen to everything I say...but Huzi is quite honest, he shouldn't be able to lie."

Guan Hua nodded and said, "Yeah, he can't lie."

"Hey, you two have only been in contact for a few days, are you covered?"

"Hey, I didn't... I just believe him. He is quite sincere."

Guan Mei glanced at the door and said, "Sister, tell you, you went to Huzi's house so...do you remember it?"

Guan Hua nodded heavily: "Remember."

All afternoon, no one in the house left the courtyard. They stayed inside, drinking tea, smoking and chatting.

Although Han Fang was interested in joining, she had to make lunch, so she, Guan Hua, and Guan Mei were busy working in the outer room. The three of them chatted animatedly, and their chirping was not much quieter than in the house.

The dishes served at noon are roe deer meat stewed with pickled cabbage, stir-fried roe deer meat with garlic sprouts, pheasant stewed with hazel mushroom vermicelli, vinegared cabbage, cold cabbage heart, and fried peanuts.

Except for Xu Ning, Li Fuqiang and the three women who didn't drink, everyone at the table picked up their glasses.

The protagonist of this meal was Wang Hu. Guan Lei sat next to him and saw that the wine in his glass was refilled as soon as it was down. Wu Haiquan, Hai Long and others even found various excuses to clink glasses with Wang Hu.

Wu Zhouliang and Wu Zhouquan were sipping their wine. They were elders, so they did not participate. They only grinned from time to time, as if they were reminded of when they were young.

In the end, Wang Hu was so drunk that his head was almost inserted into the shell of his shoe. Guan Hua saw it and wanted to come forward to persuade him, but Guan Mei held him back and explained: "You must drink this wine."

Why do you have to drink it? The first is to see Wang Hu's moral character after drinking, the second is to give Guan Lei and Wang Hu a chance to get acquainted with each other, and the third is to let Guan Hua take care of Wang Hu after he drinks too much, and the two also have a chance to enhance their relationship.

This meal started at noon and lasted until 3:30 in the afternoon.

He knocked Wang Hu's front toes against his back heels. When he got up and went to the kang, Guan Hua took the initiative to help him, but how could he help Wang Hu? He had no choice but to be supported by Xu Ning and Li Fuqiang.

But they didn't expect that Wang Hu actually recognized the floor cabinet as a kang, rushed towards the floor cabinet, spread his hands with his upper body, and lay on the floor counter.

It made everyone in the room burst into laughter!
