Shen Guanglin was preparing to return to Jinling, but it rained for several days before leaving.

Southerners have experienced various plum rain seasons, and almost no one wants to appreciate this kind of lingering drizzle.

Only Li Rong, who grew up in the north, was most curious about rain. She walked in the summer rain holding an umbrella every day.

She didn't mind at all whether the dirt roads in the countryside were muddy, nor did she mind the wind and rain on the field ridges. Even if she fell hard, it didn't matter. On the contrary, everywhere she went was full of happiness.

This was the rural life in Jiangnan that she had never experienced before.

Shen Guanglin was too lazy to move, so he moved a deck chair and sat under the eaves to watch the fool.

Not to mention, the fool has a really good figure, and having "Que Liang" on his body is indeed a pleasing sight. Shen Guanglin once suspected that this girl was playing tricks on him and deliberately seduced him.

Teacher Shen is a gentleman, don't listen to what's inappropriate and don't see what's inappropriate, especially since her niece Jiang Zhenhua is always there to play with her.

If he covets his niece, is he still a human being?

It's a person.

Because in terms of real seniority, they are equals, and Jiang Zhenhua is his cousin.

Intermarriage between cousins ​​also existed in later generations. Cousins ​​are not incestuous, cousins ​​are.

Not to mention that they are already a generation farther apart. Although they are indeed close relatives within the third generation, they are not discriminated against by others if they are really together.

For example, Einstein married his cousin and gave birth to several mentally ill children; Li Chaoren also married his cousin Zhuang Mingyue and gave birth to children. The sons he gave birth to were pretty good, and both sons were quite capable. Sent 1 billion to Zhang Ziqiang.

Shen Guanglin's eldest nephew finally found a job, and Li Rong helped.

Jiang Zhenye was assigned to work as an ordinary worker in a tractor factory. The salary was not high, but the advantages were stable income and status, and the whole family was very satisfied.

Now, only my eldest nephew's marriage is a troublesome matter.

Although Shen Guanglin's cousin is silent all day long, either mowing pigweed or catching fish every day, he actually has a lot of ideas in mind.

Shen Guanglin hadn't even left yet, but he actually called the matchmaker over again.

Or do you have to find someone to talk to you as a matchmaker? Is "changing relatives" so fun?

Isn’t it just that he is not married at the age of 26? Shen Guanglin is already 24 this year, so he is not married either.

Shen Guanglin solemnly called his niece aside and asked her personally: "Do you really want to get married now? Have you ever thought about who are the people who can't find a partner now? If you meet someone like your brother Those who are like this are considered to be burning incense, and the worst thing I'm afraid of is the kind of people with disabilities or IQ problems, which will ruin your life."

Jiang Zhenhua was indeed afraid. She was willing to go back to Jinling with Shen Guanglin and Li Rong, and was even willing to go to the capital with him.

This can be regarded as a disguised escape from marriage.

Although she is unwilling to remarry the Yang family in the next village, she is also unwilling to participate in "transmarriage."

However, the father has to make the final decision in all this, and it is really difficult for a feudal family to do anything.

Although her aunt is an elder, she can't make any decisions, so Shen Guanglin can only negotiate with his cousin.

In such a family that favors sons over daughters, Shen Guanglin is an outsider, and it is definitely not possible to object openly. He can only make insinuations.

"Cousin, you can't harm your own children like this. Now that Zhenye has a legitimate job, those girls who are waiting for 'transfer' are no longer worthy of him...

At this moment, if Zhenye goes to work, wouldn't there be a lot of girls chasing him? What are you worried about? In two or three years, if my eldest nephew can't find a partner again, I will help him introduce him to the most popular girls in Beijing. Good girl."

"real?"

"True!"

The eldest cousin really agreed.

Jiang Shuqiao's brain was kicked by a donkey, he knew how to bully his own people.

But he was still told: What his cousin said made sense. Zhenye was no longer an ordinary person. He was a worker and a cadre. He couldn't marry those farmers, so he should wait a little longer.

After hearing the good news that there was no need to change relatives, niece Jiang Zhenhua finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Every girl still dreams of meeting her right husband and dreams of the one pursuing her being Prince Charming.

Just like my little aunt Li Rong, it would be great if I could find someone I love like her, who could travel around the country with them, and the two of them could stay together forever, playing the piano and the harp in harmony.

As everyone knows, Li Rong didn't say it, but she actually had her own troubles in her heart, but she just didn't want to admit and face them.

It rained every day, and Shen Guanglin didn't go anywhere these days. He was either in a daze or fishing on the river.

The sky is blue and waiting for misty rain, Teacher Shen is waiting for you.

On misty and rainy days, the temperature and humidity are suitable, and blue and white flowers can be produced, but on misty and rainy days, fishing is not suitable, and Shen Guanglin caught nothing.

According to what Teacher Shen forcibly explained, rainy days are not suitable for fishing. The fish have lost their appetite, and even the earthworms that they usually like are no longer interested.

It’s hard to go against God’s will, right?

If Lao Shen was around at this time, he would have clearly told him: When fishing in Xia Yu, you should fish far away and float, and use float to catch grass carp. Only silver carp has a mouth, and everything else is useless.

Seeing how hard his little cousin was fishing, his eldest nephew Jiang Zhenye plunged in and caught a fish with his bare hands and helped him hang it on the hook. After all, he was no longer in the Air Force.

Teacher Shen doesn’t know how to fish, but he can catch lobsters.

The materials are also simple, just use frogs to catch fish.

Nowadays, lobsters are very big. Using garlic, red pepper, and rapeseed oil, you can make a pot of shrimp with very good taste.

The provincial capital of Chuxiang later became an Internet celebrity city, largely due to the promotion of crayfish.

Stinky tofu? Stinky tofu is not good. Stinky tofu is not delicious, especially the fire palace is the most deceiving.

Fish head with chopped pepper? The fish head with chopped pepper has no taste, and the locals don’t eat it.

Yangzhou still has a lot of delicious food. Shen Guanglin had the lion's head again, this time it was crab meat and lion's head, and it tasted great.

Finally, I have to go back to Jinling. The total time spent in Yangzhou is less than a week.

Because Shen Guanglin still feels that he can't live without modern society.

People are so vulgar, and there is simply no fun in the world without electricity.

Li Rong was still a little reluctant to live in the idyllic scenery on the river, but Shen Guanglin was tired of it.

"How can you stay here without electricity?"

"What's wrong with the power outage?" Li Rong said she didn't understand.

"Have you ever heard of the saying that a homeboy wastes paper and a homebody wastes electricity?"

"I don't understand. What happens next?"

"What I mean is that it's so hot and there's no electric fan. How can you sleep at night? You've got prickly heat on your neck."

"I'm afraid of the cold, not the heat."

Shen Guanglin is afraid of heat. It's really hard to live in hot weather without a fan. It would be nice if there was an air conditioner.

Before leaving, his aunt actually had a special message for him.

She didn't know where she took out a small bundle, which contained two pockmarked cast-size yellow croakers.

"This was left behind by your father when he left in 1949. I have never been willing to touch it. I also know that you are not short of money now, but this is what your father left behind after all, so just take it."

The large yellow croaker is a gold bar with 10 taels each. In the past, a pound was 16 taels. The current weight unit of 10 taels is 312 grams. The two bars added together are 624 grams.

Shen Guanglin never thought that his aunt could do this.

It was so surprising. He had always thought that these poor relatives would only take advantage of him, but he didn't expect that there really were "ancient customs" and "morals" in this era.

So ashamed.

624 grams of gold, this is a lot of money.

Domestically, trading gold is illegal.

However, at the current international gold price, about 30 yuan per gram is no problem.

My aunt is really willing to give it up. These two large yellow croakers cost almost 20,000 yuan.

Shen Guanglin thought about it again and again, and finally accepted it.

As for relatives, there is no need to be pretentious, just make up for it in other ways.

It is estimated that these two large yellow croakers are also my aunt's life-long obsession. It is not only money, but also her decades-long feelings for her eldest brother.

Shen Guanglin left all the money and various receipts he could, and left with the two girls.

He didn't mention any of his money-making ideas. This was only 1980, so it wasn't the right time to make big moves, so we had to stay steady.

This time we went back to Jinling by boat.

It was time to set off, and niece Jiang Zhenhua seemed very happy. This was her first time going to a big city, and she was both nervous and excited.

Li Rong also loved to ride boats, and the two of them chatted and looked at the raining river, their laughter diluting the sadness of separation.

It has been raining these past few days and there is no sunshine. This niece has turned a lot whiter and her face has changed so quickly. It turns out that she who looks like Jike Junyi can change her name to Jiang Xiaobai.

Li Rong helped her choose the clothes, and after putting them on, she looked better and more fashionable.

I will definitely find a good in-law for her when she gets to the capital.

And the young man named Yang Rui actually came to look for her. It seemed that he still didn't want to give up.

After all, it is not easy to meet a girl who makes people obsessed with each other. However, with the current situation of the two families, everything is impossible.

In these early years of love, unrequited love is the most painful.
