Chapter 2： premarital thinking

After a while, Father Song reacted, opened his mouth to speak, realized that there was still half a corn nest in his mouth, and quickly swallowed: "You, cough, are you married?"

Hire a son-in-law."

"Mother..." Liu Ling, that's not right, Song Zhaodi thought, the son-in-law is not Chinese cabbage. With an extremely serious face, he said, "I'm not talking nonsense, I don't want to marry Wang Degui, I want to marry Zhong Jianguo."

Clap!

The chopsticks in Father Song's hand fell into the bowl, splashing a lot of white rice grains, but he couldn't care about his distress: "Zhao Di, are you sleepy?"

"It's confusing, in my opinion, it's clearly crazy." Song Zhaodi's eldest sister said, "Mom, go find Dad's silver needle and give the little sister a few needles."

Song Zhaodi sighed: "Sister, I'm not crazy."

Mother, I can't see our family well. The second child of the Zhong family is a soldier in Shencheng as she said, and he is a college student. He has a salary of more than 100 yuan a month. Not to mention three children, even if he has five children, There are many women who are willing to marry him.

"You don't remember what she brought to our house? A few broken pears, and a few matchmakers brought pears to the door. By the way, her husband's surname is Zhong, our surname is Song, you Marrying the second child of the Zhong family is Song Zhong, and at the end of the day, you don't know what she has in mind?"

The original owner was only concerned that Zhao Yin was uneasy and kind, and Song Zhaodi, whose core was replaced by Liu Ling, recalled Zhao Yin's words carefully, and found that her words were full of loopholes: "Today is the National Day, and Zhong Jianguo will return in a few days. I asked him what was going on."

"Zhao Di, listen to Mother's words." Mother Song stood up on the table with a sad face, "Mother knows that the Wang family and the Zhong family are not good match, don't worry, I will entrust my mother when you arrive tomorrow. Say kiss to you, I won't let my daughter be left."

Song Zhaodi thought, the world will become more and more chaotic in the future, and nine out of ten people who are in good conditions and are urban people will be criticized. If they don't marry now, they can only marry in the countryside.

Let her spend a chaotic decade in the countryside? Song Zhaodi was ten thousand unhappy. As for Zhong Jianguo's child, she has never raised a child anyway, so she is helping him to raise it for the time being, and she doesn't want to raise it in the future. Military marriage is difficult to divorce, but it is not impossible to divorce. When you want to divorce, you can think about it.

However, these words could not be said, Song Zhaodi took Song's mother's hand, the gully in her hand surprised Song Zhaodi, looked down, and there was a few pieces of cloth wrapped around Song's fingers, I was shocked, the farmers at this time were really bitter: "Mother, Zhong Jianguo is a college student, or a soldier who eats commercial grain. If I marry him, I will be a city person—"

"If you marry into the Wang family, you can be considered a city person." Sister Song is not impatient and has no temper. It is about her sister's life, and the slow man is also anxious at the moment, "Wang Degui's Parents also said that if you marry Wang Degui, they will ask Wang Degui's uncle to transfer you to teach in the town."

Song Zhaodi knew that the eldest sister was good for her, so she didn't blame her for yelling: "My aunt deliberately praised the second child of the Zhong family. You're right."

"What do you mean?" Mother Song was puzzled.

Song Zhaodi: "Zhong Jianguo is at least a captain."

"Captain?" Sister Song didn't understand, "What officer?"

Song Zhaodi guessed according to later generations: "I heard from my classmates that after graduating from college and enlisting in the army for six years, he can be promoted to captain. Zhong Jianguo graduated eight years ago, and Binhai Ocean University is a military academy. Now he is at least a captain, and then Up there are captains and majors."

"I know the major." Sister Song said, "The major must be the head of the regiment, right?"

Song Zhaodi watched the military program, but never noticed whether the major was the regimental commander or the division commander: "I don't know either, there is no soldier in our family, I guessed based on what my former classmates said."

"If Zhong Jianguo has no children, he is more suitable than Wang Degui." Wang Degui is a shipyard worker, Zhong Jianguo may be promoted to general in the future, Sister Song hesitated suddenly, "Father, mother, what do you think? of?"

Mother Song looked at her little girl: "It would be nice if they could be neutralized."

No one dared to take Song's father's book and silver needles away because he was afraid that one day he would fall ill, and Song's father could not cure without these things.

At the craziest time, some people want to go to the Song family to collect things. When a relative's child falls ill, he can't care about anything, so he will go to Father Song with the child in his arms.

Father Song has only read a few medical books, and he knows that nothing is perfect in the world. He also knows that the officer Zhong Jianguo is more valuable than the worker Wang De, and his daughter is married, so he doesn’t have to worry about running out of food when he encounters a famine. "Zhong Jianguo has three children, you have to think clearly."

Song mother turned back suddenly: "Her father, why did you agree?"

"Mother, I have something to tell you and Dad." Song Zhaodi saw Song's mother's impatience and pulled people into her room.

Father Song waved to the eldest daughter and the eldest son-in-law, and the couple returned to their house with their meals. Father Song went in and said, "Just say whatever you want, your mother and I both listen to you, this is It's your whole life, and you won't regret it in the future."

"Dad, mother, don't be angry when I tell you." The original owner planned to rot in his stomach, and Song Zhaodi, who had changed the core, thought for a while and decided to tell it all, "When I was in school Talk to a friend."

Song mother didn't react for a while: "What friend?"

"Male?" Father Song couldn't believe it, Song Zhaodi nodded, and Father Song hurriedly asked, "Where are the others?"

Mother Song widened her eyes suddenly: "Zhao Di—"

"Mother, don't worry." Song Zhaodi's body instinctively went to help Song's mother, "I told him to come back from the summer vacation last year, but his family has a problem, so he secretly went overseas."

Father Song stared at his daughter: "You came back suddenly last year, and your mother thought you had something to do. I said that your mother thought too much. Later, I heard that the university was closed, so I didn't think much about it. , was it that time?"

"Yes." Song Zhaodi weakly said, "He promised to marry me, so I will be with him." Pretending to be sad and ashamed of his parents' teaching, Song Zhaodi lowered his head, looking like Very embarrassed to see my parents.

Mother Song burst into tears, and hugged her daughter in her arms.

Three years of hardship, Mother Song never shed a single tear when she only ate one meal a day. At this moment, Mother Song's tears fell down and fell on Song Zhaodi's clothes and hit Song Zhaodi's heart.

Liu Ling is a powerful woman. She has been to the Oscars, Cannes, and a personal fashion show in her previous life. She has encountered countless difficulties and believes that nothing in the world can make her cry.

Listening to Mother Song sobbing in a low voice, she noticed from the corner of her eyes that Father Song, who was half white-haired, was wiping tears secretly against the door frame. Liu Ling, who had long forgotten the taste of tears, was wet in the corners of her eyes: "Father, mother , don't be sad, it's all over. I, I found out what kind of person he was before I married him, it's better than knowing he was a coward after we got married."

Liu Ling patted Mother Song's back lightly, and said in her heart, your daughter's heart is not big. Since Zhao Yin left, she has been crying under the quilt every night. If it weren't for this cry, the core would not have been replaced by her Liu Ling: "Mother, Zhong Jianguo has three children, I have only had one object, and he does not dare to dislike me. Don't worry about you and Dad."

"He doesn't dare to dislike you, and he expects you to take care of his children." Father Song wiped his tears, "What did the Wang family say?"

Song Zhaodi thought about it carefully: "No need to say anything, we have not taken anything from the Wang family, so there is no need to explain it to the Wang family. Zhong Jianguo is a soldier, and the Wang family dare not offend Zhong Jianguo, nor do they dare to embarrass us. Family.

"Father, mother, the villagers are conservative. If the Wang family knew that I had talked to friends, they would have thought that I was not serious, and I had been hesitating before." This is true, but the original owner did not expect this.

The original owner was sad because she couldn’t go back to the city, and there was no suitable partner in the country. It may take another seven or eight years before I can go back to the city to continue my schooling. After graduation, the state will give me a job. I will not be able to talk to my neighbors until then. I thought about it carefully last night, Zhong Jianguo most suitable."

"Oh, you're right. We villagers care about the innocence of the girl's family the most, but they don't care how high-level the girl's family is. If you don't marry Zhong Jianguo, you will have to marry in a big city in the future." Father Song looked at Mother Song, "The matter of recruiting Di is settled. Shall we wait at home or go to the city?"

Mother Song didn't even think about it: "There's no reason for me to marry my daughter and ask him to come by himself. If he doesn't come, he doesn't come, I, I will raise Zhao Di for the rest of my life."

"Mother, be quiet, eldest sister heard me." Song Zhaodi quickly reminded.

Mother Song covered her mouth subconsciously, looked outside, and faintly heard the sound of brushing the pot: "Far away, can't hear." Turning to Father Song, "I will take Zhao Di tomorrow. Pull two clothes?"

"Do we have cloth tickets?" Song Zhaodi asked.

Mother Song choked: "Mother find someone to exchange."

"Don't change." Song Zhaodi said, "When Zhong Jianguo comes back, I will ask him to change."

Father Song nodded: "Zhaodi is right. Although our family has talked about friends, Zhaodi is still a college student. Marrying him Zhong Jianguo is a blessing he cultivated in his previous life, and he must recruit him. Di pulling cloth to make new clothes."

"Mother, don't cry." Song Zhaodi subconsciously looked for paper, thinking that it was not 2067, but 1967. People who learned from this era raised their sleeves to Song Mother wiped her tears, "If Zhong Jianguo is a lieutenant, it costs a few dozen yuan a month, and even if he looks like Zhou Zheng, I won't marry him. Don't think too much about your father and you, I'll talk about it when I meet someone."

"Yes!" Father Song said, "After graduating from college and serving in the army for eight years, he is still only a lieutenant. Such a person may not be as precious as Wang Degui."

Mother Song: "But Wang Degui can't marry either. If he knows that my family recruits Di... Maybe he will dislike my daughter." Tears came out again as she spoke. Mother Song believed that her own girl had only talked about one friend, and others might not believe it, "Mother's Zhao Di, why are you so miserable?"

"Why are you still crying?" Sister Song walked in, her brows furrowed, "Mother, Zhao Di doesn't like Wang Degui, and she doesn't want to marry Zhong Jianguo, so I will go to work in a furniture factory tomorrow. When the time comes, ask who has a boy about the size of Zhao Di."

Song mother put away her tears: "Don't ask. My mother is worried that my stepmother will not be good. People's children can't be beaten or scolded, and they can't be talented without being beaten and scolded. Zhong Jianguo has to complain about the tricks. Di. Mommy panics when she thinks of this."

"You can't beat him, you can't scold him, he'll be honest after starving him for three days." Sister Song looked at Song Zhaodi, "Zhong Jianguo dares to protect him, so he won't let him see the child."

Song Zhaodi deliberately asked: "What if Zhong Jianguo drives me away?"

"Go home." Sister Song blurted out without thinking, "You are a college student, and some of the second marriages are also married. We will not be wronged by his family."

October 3rd, in the evening, when Mother Song came back from the production team, she saw that the pigpen and sheeppen had been swept clean, and Song Zhaodi was squatting on the ground to chop rotten vegetables and throw them into the duck pen. very busy.

"Zhaodi, take a break." Mother Song moved a small bench and sat beside Song Zhaodi, "Today is number three, and Zhong Jianguo has not been seen yet, do you want to ask your eldest brother-in-law to go to the city? ask?"

Song Zhaodi stopped and said, "Ask my cousin Zhong Jianguo, why hasn't she come back yet? Don't ask. We didn't tell her the truth when my cousin left. The elder brother-in-law went over to ask her, but it wasn't enough for her to run. "

You are hungry."

Zhong Jianguo has three children, the eldest is five years old, the second is three years old, and the third is only one year old. Song Zhaodi was not worried that Zhong Jianguo would not come back, but was afraid that her cousin Zhao Yin, who was also Zhong Jianguo's stepmother, would make Zhong Jianguo angry. As a result, Zhong Jianguo would rather not marry than his stepmother's cousin.

"Wait two more days." Liu Ling vaguely remembered that when the world was at its most chaotic, it did not affect the army, and the army was like a paradise. If Zhong Jianguo is really a senior officer, it means that he is neither mediocre nor short-sighted.

Liu Ling's idol in her previous life was a public police officer, which also led her to be extra tolerant towards men in uniform. Although Zhong Jianguo is in the navy, which is not the same as her idol's occupation, Liu Ling believes in herself, Zhong Jianguo should not do too much, she can hold back and don't care about each other.

The object is changed to Wang Degui, and Liu Ling, who has become Song Zhaodi, can guarantee that she has no patience to deal with it. When things happen to him, Wang Degui, a worker, can't protect his wife and children.

What's more, Zhong Jianguo's conditions are also very outstanding in the city. Seeing that he may be a high-quality stock, Song Zhaodi, who has changed his core, said, "If he still doesn't come, call him Brother-in-law, go to Zhong Jianguo's eldest brother and ask."

Mother Song's eyes lit up: "Yes, we don't need to look for your cousin, we can bypass her and look for the boss of the Zhong family, and ask him what Zhong Jianguo means."

"Little Bell, what are you hanging around here, why haven't you come home yet?"

Zhong Jianguo looked back and said in surprise, "Commander, when did you come back from the imperial capital?"

He has approved your leave, why don't you leave?"

Zhong Jianguo was quite surprised: "Why did the teacher even tell you such a thing."

"Your teachers are happy for you." The man said, "I heard that she is a rural girl. You college student despise others."

Zhong Jianguo didn't even think about it: "No." Looking at the other party's eyes, seeing the other party waiting for him to continue, he pondered for a moment, and felt that the commander also cared about him, "That woman is my stepmother's niece. ."

"Your stepmother, I heard your sister-in-law say it a few times." The man said, "Your previous daughter-in-law told your sister-in-law that the boxing ceremony was a day late and forced your father to send you a telegram. When your family goes back to have a meal, the white noodles are reluctant to put salt. However, I still think that there are few women who are not particular about your stepmother. "

Zhong Jianguo was very worried: "What if? All three of them are still young."

"What if not?" the man asked, "Your three children are not ten years old, if you don't marry this year, you must marry next year. Your teacher should introduce the teachers in the school. Give it to you, but you don't want it."

Zhong Jianguo waved his hands again and again: "She just graduated from high school, an innocent little girl, I am hurting her by marrying her." After a while, "Besides, I have three children, she is one Female students who haven't done much work can't be taken care of well either."

"Then go back and see you." The man made up his mind for him, "Did you get the marriage report?"

Zhong Jianguo froze for a moment: "Isn't it necessary?"

"When I see it when I see it, I will do it quickly, so that you will not be distracted." The man said, "Old Jiang stares at us all day long, and will kill you someday, your state is not good. Lead the troops against Lao Jiang." Then he waved to the guards behind him, "Xiao Wang, bring me Master Liu."

Zhong Jianguo hurriedly said: "No, no, I will go to the teacher to apply for marriage."

"That's right." The man smiled and patted his shoulder, "Don't think about it, just talk to someone."

On the 4th of October, in the evening, Zhong Jianguo got off the train and didn't go to the tube building on the side of the road, but walked across a street to the door of his eldest brother's house. A four or five-year-old child ran out of it, Zhong Jianguo subconsciously bent down and picked up the child.

Sister Zhong chased after him, saw who was coming, and was overjoyed: "When did the second brother come back?"

"Just arrived." Zhong Jianguo held the child in one hand and carried the bag in the other. When he got inside, he opened the bag and took out all the candies, biscuits, and malted milk inside.

Sister-in-law Zhong stared at the children eagerly, opened the candy and half of each, and then went to make the malted milk essence: "I told your elder brother in the morning, is there any delay? , why haven't you come back?"

"Brother hasn't gotten off work yet?" Zhong Jianguo asked.

Sister Zhong: "Your brother has been promoted to team leader and is busier than before. When are you going to go to Song's house?"

"Song family...Have my sister-in-law ever met that girl from the Song family?" Zhong Jianguo asked.

Sister Zhong pointed to the south: "She went there that day, and when I came back, I smiled and said that it was done. Since she can't see our family better all day, the girl of the Song family is not. No matter what the shortcomings, no one can compare with your first daughter-in-law."

"Dad, do you really want to find me a stepmother?" The child leaning on Zhong Jianguo's lap suddenly said.
