After Ji Yuanhai's mother said a few words, she left the main room angrily. This family meeting was not over yet.

Grandpa said: "Boss, your wife doesn't care, we, the old couple, have to care; you, the father, have to care too."

"Yuanshan doesn't want to get married, but Yuanhai does. Let's tell the brigade and let Yuanhai marry that female educated youth."

"That's how it's settled."

Ji Yuanhai's father nodded: "Dad, I understand."

"What will happen to the two children's houses after they get married?"

"Yuanshan comes to the main room and adds a small bed to make it easier." Grandpa said, "The west room is where Yuanhai and his wife live."

"Yuan Hai——"

Ji Yuanhai responded: "Grandpa, tell me."

"The West House is for you and your wife, but in the future when your eldest brother Yuanshan gets married, you have to think of another way." Grandpa said, "I have raised your father, your second uncle, and your third uncle all my life, and I will also Your aunt married into a good family."

"But as a grandchild like you, I can't afford to worry too much about each of you."

"After you get married, you have to figure out how to start a family and start a business; if that doesn't work, learn some skills, such as pulling adobe to build a house or something. When the time comes, there will be more than a dozen of us in the family, and we can build two rooms, and that will be a home. "

Grandpa's words are golden. If Ji Yuanhai lives an honest life in the countryside from now on, he will not suffer any loss.

From the perspective of a rural person, his grandfather had a long-term vision and helped Ji Yuanhai make arrangements for starting a family on his own in the future.

But the premise of all this is based on the premise that Jiyuan Haiken will stay in the countryside and continue to earn work points.

Ji Yuanhai was not impetuous enough to sneer at such kind words from an old man. He nodded seriously: "Grandpa, I understand."

"Then the matter is settled." Grandpa took a deep breath of cigarette. He just finished smoking the dry tobacco bag and knocked the ashes from the pot.

Ji Yuanhai spoke again.

"Grandpa, I'm going to take a day off tomorrow."

Grandpa and father frowned and looked at him.

"Why are you taking a break? Are you a slacker before you get married?"

"If you take a break, what should we do about the work at home?"

"If you can't keep up with the work points one day or every day, no one will have more money and food by the end of the year. Yuan Hai, if you dare to be lazy, I will really beat you up!"

Ji Yuanhai saw his grandfather and father frowning, and thought to himself: Life in the countryside is really hard. They have to work every day to earn work points. The labor intensity is no less than that of workers. As a result, they can't even eat sweet potato noodles and steamed buns.

Sometimes, we even have to find ways to eat wild vegetables and bad sweet potatoes...

If you are a little lazy, you will be scolded at home and laughed at in the village, which makes you feel rebellious.

Ji Yuanhai really had to explain clearly today, otherwise his grandfather and father would never allow him to "not go to work" tomorrow.

"Grandpa, I have to go see Lu Heling tomorrow."

Grandpa immediately snorted: "Look at your worthless look!"

"After you get married, you will see enough, so what else are you going to see now?"

After hearing this, Ji Yuanshan covered his mouth and snickered.

He thought this was just fun - his younger brother wanted to see his new wife, but he obviously couldn't help it.

Ji Yuanhai said: "Grandpa, don't think so, she really may not agree with this matter."

"Think about it, she is a female educated youth who is very delicate. Now that her parents are gone, it is impossible for her to return to the city."

"Besides marrying me, she actually has another way."

Grandparents, grandma, and father were all surprised: "Ah? What else can she do?"

"Dead end!"

Ji Yuanhai said in a deep voice: "If she goes to a dead end, it's one thing if I can't marry a wife. What will happen to our family's reputation?"

"Because the child was getting married, a desperate female educated youth was forced to death."

"Our family is Huang Shiren?"

As soon as Ji Yuanhai finished speaking, Grandpa couldn't sit still, stood up, and shouted: "Hey! Don't say this nonsense!"

In this era, any old farmer who dares to compare himself to Huang Shiren, a landlord, doesn't want to live anymore, right?

Ji Yuanhai said: "Yes, grandpa, I won't say anything nonsense. I won't say a word when I leave the house."

"But the truth is this. It would be fine if Lu Heling married me. If she doesn't marry me and ends up in a dead end, our family's reputation will definitely be ruined."

"It's not worth it if you can't get a wife and become a bad person."

After Ji Yuanhai finished speaking, his grandparents, father, and Ji Yuanshan all looked at him.

"Uh, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Ji Yuanhai was surprised.

"What you said is indeed true." Grandpa said, "You didn't understand so much before, but you spoke clearly and logically today, as if you were having a meeting with the brigade secretary."

"Did the sun make you smart today?"

Seeing that his grandfather was mainly curious and a bit joking, Ji Yuanhai laughed and said, "No matter how smart I am, I am still not as smart as your abacus."

"This kid!" Grandpa laughed and didn't ask any more questions.

"You can take a day off tomorrow and see what Lu Heling means. If she really wants to go to a dead end, we don't want our family to get a bad reputation."

"Well, I understand, Grandpa."

The family meeting ended, and Ji Yuanhai and his eldest brother Ji Yuanshan returned to the West Room.

After entering the house, the two of them lay on the bed, and the eldest brother muttered: If I had known that you would have to kick me out of the West Room before you got married, I would not have given you my wife.

Ji Yuanhai laughed when he heard this: "Brother, I will definitely find you a good wife in the future!"

Ji Yuanshan also laughed twice, but didn't take it to heart.

The two brothers gradually fell asleep facing the dark adobe house.

This sleep was extremely long, and Ji Yuanhai felt light all over and healthy, as if he had returned to his carefree childhood, when he fell into a deep sleep without thinking about anything after a day of crazy play.

Early the next morning, Ji Yuanhai got up and stretched, and his bones and joints crackled several times.

It's great. Is the air so good in this day and age?

Sleeping well too.

How can I be in such good shape even after eating half a sweet potato noodle steamed bun?

Era Sea really feels in better condition than ever before. Looking at the leaves of the jujube trees outside, it seems a little greener than yesterday.

He looked up and saw his mother coming out of the east room. She glared at him, obviously still annoyed that he refused to obey.

Ji Yuanhai said nothing more.

His mother seemed to disagree with marrying a female educated youth, but in fact she wanted him to give up his wife to someone else. Of course Ji Yuanhai would not agree to such a thing.

He didn't go out to earn work points today, and Ji Yuanhai didn't eat breakfast either. This was to save food for the family, which was considered sensible, and also to avoid being looked down upon by his mother again.

Besides, when he woke up from his sleep, he was in unusually good condition, and he was really not hungry.

Coming out of home, Ji Yuanhai walked towards the team headquarters.

The Xiaoshantun Production Brigade received eight educated youths, five men and three women. The three female educated youths lived in a room in the team headquarters, and the other two male educated youths reluctantly lived in another hut.

The remaining three couldn't fit in any room, so they had to be placed in a lonely old man's home.

Ji Yuanhai was looking for female educated youth Lu Heling, so naturally he came to the production brigade headquarters early in the morning.
