How to Thrive in the ’60s

The old lady understood what Zhang Shouyi meant. He meant that Director Yang had fallen from power, and he would not be able to harm him in the future, and he would not be able to regret the marriage next time.

After thinking about it, the old lady continued to ask, "Why are you here alone today? You still want to marry my family, can your father agree?"

Zhang Shouyi stopped talking.

The old lady also sighed, and fell silent.

The old lady was quite satisfied with Zhang Shouyi, a junior. If there hadn't been a matter of regretting the marriage last time, Zhang Shouyi would have become her son-in-law.

It's just that Director Yang's family got in the way later, and the two families who were originally happy were completely torn apart.

Zhang Shouyi didn't say it clearly, but the old lady knew in her heart that Zhang Shouyi's father still hated the thing that Lao Yun's family forced him to apologize to his relatives last time. Today, Zhang Shouyi came to ask for a marriage, but the old Zhangtou probably didn't know about it, and he didn't agree to the marriage.

The marriage of the two families was originally a happy thing, but since Lao Zhang felt unhappy in his heart and hated Lao Yun's family for not saving him face, there was no need for Shuilian to go into Zhang's house to feel uncomfortable.

Not to mention that Shuilian is now registered in Fenyang and has a job in the Women's Federation. Even if Shuilian still has a rural household registration and is gossiped by people in the village every day, their old Yun's family is reluctant to marry Shuilian to someone in the city to be angry.

That's not for Shuilian's good, it's to make Shuilian wronged, and I won't extend it in my heart for the rest of my life.

There were only three people in the family, and Shui Lian came in with gossip all over her back, and she was unhappy in her heart. Old Zhangtou lost face at Lao Yun's house, and he was unhappy in his heart. How long can Zhang Shouyi be happy alone?

Everyone is unhappy, how will they live in the future?

And after this incident, the old lady felt that Zhang Shouyi seemed to be similar to her family, Er Chuan. He looked tough, but when something happened, his brain was not clear, and he was a little bit rational, which made the old lady dissatisfied.

Besides, Shuilian's household registration and job are now in Fenyang, and Zhang Shouyi is working in the county again. Even if the marriage is completed, the couple will have to live separately in the future.

It's fine now, Shui Lian and Zhang Shouyi have only met three times, even if the marriage fails, the two of them won't be able to bear it for long. After a while, the two children will think about it, so they won't remember it on my mind...

Yunshang ran to the field along the dirt path, and saw the flat field stretching out along the path, ridge by ridge, row by row, and the fields were all the same length and very neat.

In the middle of the field, the villagers wore towels on their foreheads and were digging the ground with various tools.

It was too far away, and Yun Chang couldn't see people clearly, so she ran over to ask the scorekeeper, and finally found the old man at the other end of the field.

"Master! There are guests at home, grandma wants you to go home!"

The old man hurried up to the ridge with the hoe on his shoulder, told the scorekeeper, and took Yunshang to the house.

"Master, it's Comrade Zhang Shouyi who is here." Before the old man could ask, Yun Chang made a small report.

The old man became anxious as soon as he heard it, and his steps became even bigger. When he was approaching the entrance of the village, the old man said, "Go back first, and you follow slowly", and ran into the village.

With that angry posture, Yun Chang would suspect that the old man would give Zhang Shouyi a hoe as soon as he met him.

Sighing secretly, he found a stone at the entrance of the village and sat down, giving room for the old couple and Zhang Shouyi to talk.

After waiting at the entrance of the village for more than half an hour, he finally saw Zhang Shouyi coming out of the house with a pale face and a broken heart.

Seeing Yunshang, Zhang Shouyi stopped, "Shangnan, your aunt... have you bought a house for your aunt in Fenyang?"

Yun Chang nodded.

"Your aunt works at the Fenyang Women's Federation?"

Yun Shang continued to nod.

Zhang Shouyi's face turned paler.

"Shangnan, your aunt... How are you in Fenyang?"

"Well, I live in a building, and the place where I work is also a building. My aunt only needs to write a pen every day, and the work is easy.

"

Zhang Shouyi fell silent again. After a long while, he seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be asking Yunshang, "Tell me, if I find a way to transfer to Fenyang, will your aunt agree to date me?"

Yun Shang: "..." How do I know this? You have to ask my aunt!

Zhang Shouyi stood at the entrance of the village for a while, then quickly bowed his head and left.

Yun Chang watched Zhang Shouyi walk away, patted the dust off his buttocks, tried to lift the corners of his mouth, turned around and went home.

The old lady came back now, she was sitting under the gate picking wild vegetables, when she saw Yunshang coming in, she smiled and said, "Today, I, Changnan, is a great hero, picking a lot of wild vegetables, and my grandma will steam them for you at night .”

Yun Shang was a little guilty, and didn't dare to say that she was busy smuggling wild vegetables with roots into the space, and the baskets were all dug up by others to give her.

"Grandma, where is my grandfather?"

The old lady packed the picked white wormwood and shepherd's purse separately, moved them to the yard, scooped water from the Weng to wash the vegetables, and babbled:

"Your grandfather felt uncomfortable, and went to work in the backyard... Well, Comrade Zhang Shouyi is a sincere person, but he and your aunt didn't have a relationship. They had a good marriage..."

"Grandma," Yunshang glanced at the wall not far away, lowered her voice, "Comrade Zhang asked me, he said that if he finds a way to transfer to Fenyang, would my aunt still want to date him?"

"What? Did he really say that?"

Yun Chang nodded, and the old lady's face became ugly all of a sudden.

"It's really a crime. If you really get transferred, what will you do if your aunt goes away again? That old man really hates our family! No..."

The old lady dropped the water ladle, turned around and walked to the backyard, "I have to tell your master, go to Fenyang tomorrow, and ask your aunt to pay back Zhang Shouyi's five hundred yuan. Theirs!"

Yun Chang was dumbfounded, so she quickly jumped over and hugged the old lady's waist, "Grandma, grandma! I'll pay it back. I gave back the five hundred yuan to Comrade Zhang last time!"

The old lady stared blankly at Yunshang, and it took her a long time to realize, "Where did you get the money? This matter... does your aunt know?"

Yun Shang honestly shook her head, "I don't know. When Comrade Zhang repented of his marriage, I was so angry that I asked Second Brother Gu to take me to Comrade Zhang to settle the accounts. That's when I paid back the five hundred yuan. The money was paid by Second Brother Gu on behalf of him." I took it, grandma, our family does not owe Comrade Zhang, not a penny!"

The old lady blinked, and tears fell down, "Oh, you silly girl, why are you so honest! Why didn't you tell me and your grandfather about this? How could you let me go to bed because of your aunt? Bow back to Comrade Gu Xiao?

Ouch, it hurts me so much. Our big family is all your burden! If Comrade Gu Xiao is eaten away, who will pull me to be a good girl in the future? "

Yun Shang blinked: The whole family ate and ran away the second brother Gu?

Damn, how edible is Lao Yun's house!
