Chapter 65 Go Home Next

"What, don't you want to go?"

Wang Haiyan first tasted the meaning of Niu Ben's smile. She frowned and immediately said, "Little Ben, it's not my sister-in-law who said you. What can 800 yuan do in the city? Although you have food and accommodation, how much money can you have left in a month? You are also a big man. After so many years, I'm afraid that the money saved is not enough to give a bride price to your daughter-in-law. What are you waiting for if you don't come back quickly!"

"sister-in-law, I understand your kindness." Niu Ben smiled helplessly and said, "But now, I really can't come back."

"What's wrong?!" Wang Haiyan was stunned, and then woke up and said with a smile, "I know that you met a good girl in Binhai, and now you are at a critical juncture, so you don't want to come back, right?"

When she said this, not only did the seven aunts and eight aunts around her immediately come to cheer up, but also Niu Ben's mother came over and asked, "Ben, is what your sister-in-law Yan said true? What does that girl look like? When will she take her home for us to have a look? Well, I asked the fortune teller. You are 22 this year, and it's just right to get married next year. If it's not suitable to get married in the twenty-fourth year of life, be careful that I'll beat you!"

"Mom..." Niu Ben shouted angrily and funnyly, "Where is this!"

"What's going on? You bastard can't talk well." Niu's mother immediately looked down and said seriously, "Do you still want to put it off for two or three years?" If so, even if the girl wants to, I won't agree!"

After saying this, Niu Ben only rolled his eyes and said, "Mom, how old am I? There are a lot of people in the city who are married in their thirties!"

"The city is a city, and this is a village." The cow mother said seriously, and then began to preach, "Don't talk about people as big as you. Look at Zhang Haijun in the west of the village. He is three years younger than you. He not only married his daughter-in-law and entered the door, but also became a father in autumn. When I was a child, people shouted at Brother Niu behind your buttocks. Now you have fallen behind others. I have no face to go anywhere!"

"Zhang Haijun is going to be a father?" Niu Ben was here, but his eyes almost stared out. Counting the age, the boy is only 19 years old this year. He will be a father at the age of 19. This... Obviously, he is not old, and he can't even get a marriage certificate!

Of course, Niu Ben will not say this, because there is a very difficult thing to say to others, that is, Niu's father and mother did not get a marriage certificate in those years. However, they are still married to the registration on the household register. Therefore, it is not a very important concept for mothers who only have a third-grade primary school degree. Only the fact that she married her daughter-in-law is the result she wants to see.

In the face of such a mother, even if Niu Ben wanted to explain, he also found that the language he organized was extremely pale.

At the end, he had to use words to perfunctory his mother and say, "Okay, mom, can't I listen to you? I'll try to bring my daughter-in-law back to show you during the Spring Festival, and then do that tomorrow..."

What does that mean? Let's take a look at Niu Ben here, but when he heard it in his mother's ear, it immediately made him happy.

Well, in the face of parents who want to marry their daughters and are eager to have grandchildren, there is no right to resist any man of marriage age. Most of the people can only have left, just be perfunctory like Niu Ben, or postpone it later.

After responding to this, his mother let the cow run for him to move freely, and then talked to the women in the village for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, the women who wanted to drive cattle to feed chickens and pigs left. Cow mothers naturally have to do chores at this time. However, Niu Ben rarely came back once and took the initiative to take care of these things. He only told his mother that he had not eaten the food she cooked for a long time and asked his mother to cook a good dinner.

The cow mother responded in a hurry, and then went straight to the kitchen without mentioning it.

Only said that Niu Ben filled the pig trough with food, fed all the chickens and put them in a cage, and then picked up the eggs in the chicken coop. When he was ready to go to the kitchen and ask his mother to stir-fry an egg, he saw his father pushing his bicycle back from the entrance of the village from afar. Two grass carfish weighing five or six pounds each hung on one side of his handlebar, and a bag on the other side. As he approached, Niu Ben saw the three words beer duck on the plastic bag.

No wonder his father came back so late. He rode to the town!

He hurried up to meet his father and saw all kinds of meat and cooked food on his car seat. Niu Ben couldn't help saying, "Dad, why did you still go to town? How tiring it is to ride back and forth on such a long road.

As he spoke, Niu Ben dusted his father's body.

This kind of scene should have been filial, which was extremely warm and harmonious, but when he turned around, he found that his father seemed to have a gloomy face and looked very unhappy. Stunned, Niu Ben hurried to ask if something had happened.

The father hesitated for a moment before he opened his mouth and sighed, "Ben'er, how long are you going to stay when you come back this time?"

"Stay for two or three days." Niu Ben responded casually, and then said, "You may not know that I have a new job on my side, and I can't do it for the time being. If Grandpa hadn't sent him back to Binhai this time, I might not have come back until the Spring Festival!"

"Ai!" My father sighed again and said, "What's there to do with such an 800 yuan job?" You might as well come back to town as soon as possible to find something. It's much better than outside!"

"What's the matter, Dad?" Niu Ben was puzzled again and said, "What's going on? Tell me about it!"

The father shook his head and did not respond to Niu Ben, but took the food from the car and sent it to the kitchen without letting Niu Ben. Looking at his father's old but old appearance, Niu Ben's heart was like a mess, and he didn't know what to say.

He knew that something must have happened to his father, that's why he did this. Otherwise, I was fine when I came back, but why do I ignore myself now?

Thinking about it carefully, Niu Ben finished everything after he came back, and a thin anger suddenly appeared in his heart. When the third generation of the family gathered around the table for dinner, Niu Ben asked his father again. At this time, he probably drank two glasses of wine, and his father told Niu Ben what was on his mind. In fact, it was not unexpected, that is, some long-tongued women in the village were talking maliciously.

It's nothing more than this in the countryside. Sometimes it looks lively and friendly, but there are many people chewing their tongues behind their backs.

What my father said was that when he came back, he met Aunt Li in the north of the village. This nearly 50-year-old aunt happened to be a famous long-tongued woman in the village. So he told his father what Niu Ben said to the group of women in the room today.

The general content of what he said is: Look, your boy's salary is 800 yuan a month, and he is saving money in the city, and I'm afraid there is no less than 5,000 yuan left in a year. Although it is a light work, when will it take to buy money to marry a wife? It's better to come back early. Look at our second boy, who is now a loader. Lin Lin finally came down in a month, almost three times as many as your children. After three years, he can build a two-storey house!

When Aunt Li speaks, she naturally shows off herself and is slightly sarcastic.

Who wants to hear others say that their children are not as good as others? Who wants their children to be compared with others? But what others said is true, and you can't find words to refute the other party. So when my father heard these words, he was immediately full of unhappiness. At the same time, he was secretly angry with Niu Ben, so when he came back, he not only looked gloomy, but also ignored Niu Ben.

Speaking of the women in the village, it is inevitable that the families are short. With the 5,000-year history of Huaxia, it is impossible to avoid such a thing. If you don't involve yourself, everyone will listen to it as a joke and leave it behind their heads after hearing it. But now the problem involves his own family, and his father has more or less inherited some face-loving nature from the old man, which naturally evolved into this.

After listening to his father's narrative, Niu Ben also sighed slightly. But then he said to his father, "Dad, there's something I haven't told you yet. That is, I was promoted to supervisor the previous month, and now my salary is 3,000 yuan a month, and the work is easy.

As soon as he said this, his father and mother's eyes suddenly lit up. In particular, my father dried the wine in the glass and asked eagerly, "Ben'er, you are not happy to tell lies to coax me!"

"How can it be!" Niu Ben smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, call Uncle Gen. The Li girl knows it."

After a pause, in order to verify that what he said was not a lie, he also said to the old man who had been silent: "Grandpa, you have also been to Binhai for a few days. You should always know something about me. Tell your son if your grandson has lied!"

Niu Ben's words fell to the ground, and his parents immediately put their eyes on the old man and shouted "Dad" in unison, looking forward to his follow-up.

However, the old man was stable. Even under his parents' eager eyes, he still slowly took a sip of wine and swallowed a piece of meat. Then he nodded slowly and said, "Little Ben is right. He is a supervisor and has a monthly salary of thousands of yuan."

"This, this, that's great!" My father immediately patted his thigh and then stood up to serve wine for Niu Ben.

However, at this time, the old man seemed to feel that it was not enough to say this news, and immediately said again, "He not only was a supervisor, but also signed a contract with someone to receive a project. Before he came back, he had already paid one million yuan in advance and paid to his bank card. Inside."

As soon as the old man said this, his father immediately trembled and poured the wine on the table without saying anything. He seemed to have been touched by acupuncture for a long time. Just let the wine in the bottle keep flowing down with the sound of "bo".

In a moment, the house suddenly filled with the fragrance of wine, overflowing everywhere...
