Carry a fountain with you

Chapter 121 Talk
"Xiaohao, what did you do this afternoon? I haven't seen anyone for most of the day? A few people came to buy rice field eels in the afternoon." As soon as they walked to the door, they heard Professor Zhao complaining in the courtyard, while Xiaopi and Hei The leopard greeted it cheerfully wagging its tail.

"Oh, I went up the mountain to play. They are Zhang Qian's family..." Liu Junhao hurriedly introduced them to each other.

After hearing what he said, Professor Zhao didn't complain, and greeted Zhang's mother with a smile.

Xiao Zeyu caught sight of the two turtledoves on his shoulders at a glance, and hurriedly took out the mulberries he had just picked to tease them.The little turtledove didn't recognize its birth, and landed in his hand with a cooing sound.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Professor Zhao handed over the money on the table and said, "Doctor Wang waited at the door for a long time and didn't see you coming back, so he went to the next door to look for me. I opened the door for him to catch eels, and he asked for a total of I bought eight catties, and said I was bringing some for my colleagues. Another family also came, and they asked for three and a half catties, and I charged 100 yuan. The total is 340 yuan, you count."

"Well, thank you." Liu Junhao nodded and collected the money.Professor Zhao also has the key to this courtyard, and he will account for the guests who come when Liu Junhao is not at home.

Mother Zhang naturally saw these things.I earn 400 yuan a day, and if I calculate it for a month, there are definitely several thousand yuan.Even in the city, this salary is not low.

In the past, my daughter said that Liu Junhao raised eels to make a fortune, but I still didn't believe it. Now I look at it and it really seems good.It is said that he also has knitting skills by hand, and a pillowcase can be sold for dozens of yuan online.

When she was on the mountain in the afternoon, she also secretly observed him several times. This young man is tall and tall, fair-looking, and he is considered a good-looking talent.Moreover, he is really kind to his daughter, and he speaks generously and decently, really.

If he didn't have a rural hukou, or if he had gone to college, Zhang's mother would agree to the two of them almost immediately.

This time she came here mainly to inquire about the crime, but she didn't find anything wrong after staying for a long time.And the "uncle" that grandson called just now gave her even more headaches. If she had known earlier, she would not have brought this little guy here.

When Professor Zhao heard that Zhang Qian's family was here, he naturally understood that they were here to inspect his son-in-law.He knew that Liu Junhao's family didn't have an old man in charge of the facade, so he wanted to help out by the side, so he didn't plan to leave for a while, and began to chat with Zhang's mother patiently.

In his words, he praised Liu Junhao even more, praised the young man's benevolence and righteousness, and said that Zhang Qian had great vision.

Zhang's mother originally thought that this unremarkable old man was Liu Junhao's family, and she wanted to put on airs when she came up.She didn't expect him to have a lot of background, he was a professor of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences, so she couldn't put on airs during the conversation.

However, she mumbled in her heart that the old man was sick. Although the environment in Liujiagou was very good, it was too monotonous and lacked the prosperity of the city.It's okay to live here and there, but won't he be bored if he lives like this all the time?

While talking, Zhang Qian brought a few cups of strawberry and mulberry juice for them to taste.After the two kinds of wild fruits were squeezed into juice, the color turned dark red, which suddenly looked like wine.

After going up the mountain for a long time, it is indeed a pleasure to drink cool and delicious fruit juice.

Zhang's mother originally wanted to find a chance to have a showdown with the two of them after going down the mountain, but now that there are more outsiders, she feels embarrassed to say it again.

Less than 10 minutes later, Mr. Wang also came over.The woman-to-woman talk was more smooth, and the two of them asked each other about their previous jobs.

Teacher Wang said that he had taught mathematics in No. [-] High School all his life. Zhang's mother immediately said that her son had also studied in high school there before.

As a result, Mr. Wang actually recalled it while talking, and said that he had taught such a student.

Climbing to the relationship, the two of them immediately got closer, and the atmosphere of the conversation became lively.

Professor Zhao and his wife naturally stayed here during dinner.Liu Junhao still wanted to go into the kitchen to cook, but was kicked out by Mr. Wang and Mrs. Zhang.

After eating, Professor Zhao and his wife didn't sit down too much, and went home after chatting for a while.

"Come to the yard for a while, I have something to tell you." As soon as the outsider left, Zhang's mother immediately got to the point.

"Mom, what do you have to say in the room," Zhang Qian yelled reluctantly, and secretly pulled Liu Junhao from behind a few times, not wanting him to go out.

"It's okay," Liu Junhao comforted in a low voice with a smile.What should come will come eventually, and he has actually already prepared for it.

The night was as cool as water, and those unknown insects sang different voices in the corner, making it more and more silent.

Although there is no moon tonight, the sky is full of stars.The whole yard was brightly illuminated, and the trees in the corner were covered with a somewhat hazy tone.

"Although I have only been here for a day, I can see that you are a nice young man..." Mother Zhang said a few polite words before getting to the point: "What are your plans in the future? I mean, if you are allowed to leave rural words."

Liu Junhao heard her subtext, and he was nothing if he left the base of Liujiagou.

At this time, he couldn't pretend that he didn't understand. After thinking for a while, he raised his head and asked, "Does my aunt disagree with the two of us being together?"

"This..." Zhang's mother said slightly tactfully, "That's not exactly what it means. I just said that you are a good young man, and I am very optimistic about you. But as an adult, you should also know that two people Being in love, getting married, and living a life is not a simple matter, there are many practical issues to consider.”

Strictly speaking, Zhang's mother's evaluation of Liu Junhao just now was not polite, she was really satisfied with this young man, but for the sake of her daughter's future, she was not optimistic about the relationship between the two.

"Xiaoqian is currently teaching, and in the first half of the year she will be transferred back to the city. What will you two do then? Do you want Xiaoqian to return to the city as a teacher or stay in the countryside?"

Liu Junhao didn't know how to interface for a moment, he just felt a mess in his heart.Even though there were countless heroic words, at this moment, he couldn't say a single word.

"Mom, let's talk about the future, okay? It's cold at night, so you should go in." Zhang Qian, who had been hiding at the door and eavesdropping, suddenly rushed into the yard and said.

"You go in for me, I have something to talk to him." Seeing that her daughter is still turning her elbows out, Zhang's mother suddenly became angry: Is it the father and mother kissing you or him kissing you?
"Then... Hurry up." Zhang Qian was afraid that her mother would really get angry, so she retreated unwillingly.

After Zhang Qian made such a fuss, Liu Junhao also calmed down. He took a deep breath and said, "Auntie, in fact, since you came today, I know that you don't agree with me and Zhang Qian. I understand this, as parents I hope my daughter can find a satisfactory boyfriend. You are doing this for Zhang Qian's own good..."

Only Liu Junhao's deep voice echoed in the entire yard, and the chirping insects seemed to be infected by his voice and became silent.The same is true in the house, Wang Yun turned off the TV early, and eavesdropped behind the door with her sister-in-law.

"Although Zhang Qian and I have not confirmed our relationship for a long time, we have known each other for a long time. I believe that the two of us know each other very well. I dare not promise you anything now. I can only say that as long as Zhang Qian is still in Liu Jiagou, if she is willing to be with me, I will cherish her. If she really wants to leave me..."

Liu Junhao said this for a full 5 minutes, and his fighting spirit that had dissipated was also stimulated by Zhang's mother.For the happiness of myself and Zhang Qian, I can only give it a go. I hope Zhang's mother can agree to the two of them being together in the end.

"Sister-in-law, go out and persuade our mother, don't let her talk about it." Zhang Qian was afraid that his mother would say anything to refuse, so she hurriedly begged her sister-in-law in the room.

Wang Yun couldn't refuse, so she had to open the door and walk into the yard and said, "Mom, let's go into the house first. We'll talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to do. The yard is very humid at night, don't you still have cold legs?"

Although Zhang's mother was a little annoyed that her daughter-in-law was ignorant, but seeing Liu Junhao's appearance now, she knew that there would be no result if she continued to talk, so she could only nod and go back to the house.

After Liu Junhao stayed with him for a while, he went to sleep with Professor Zhao, while Teacher Wang went to his home.Zhang Qian also rested here tonight, but before she went to sleep, she went to the sixth aunt's house to explain that her family had come.

Early morning was probably the busiest time in Liu Junhao's yard, and Mama Zhang was woken up early by the movement outside.Although the conversation last night was not smooth, she had a good night's sleep.

The morning breeze brought the fragrance of flowers, the flower magpies and gray horses jumped on the ground and pecked at the remaining rice grains, and the teals jumped up and down when they saw someone coming out, quacking and screaming...

Although these things are a bit noisy, they are full of the breath of life, making people feel refreshed unconsciously.

"Mom, why did you get up so early, don't sleep for a while, did you sleep well last night?" Zhang Qian hurriedly put on her clothes and got out of bed when she heard the movement in the yard.

"It's okay," Zhang's mother said after doing a few exercises.

Seeing those chickens and ducks wandering around them, Zhang Qian hurriedly made half a pot of bran and mixed it with water a few times, then put it beside the pile of miscellaneous trees for them to loot.

Seeing her daughter doing these housework skillfully, Zhang's mother sighed again.

Within a few minutes, the rest of the sleeping people also got up, and gathered around the edge of the flower pond to watch the scenery.The dew hasn't gone down yet, those morning glories have already opened their horns to welcome the sunrise, and a few eager bees are buzzing on it.

Xiao Haoyu was the most excited at the moment, squatting by the water and tied half a steamed bun with a rope to tease the fire head.

Every time Huotou just stretched out his mouth to eat, he would lift his body up high. After trying several times in a row, he completely enraged the big guy. Huotou suddenly jumped out of the water more than a foot high, biting the rope.
