Chapter 9: Brother Eighty Soldier 09

Zhang Liyun has a good temper and is quick and resolute. That night, he and Zhao Daqiu went to Du's house and talked with Du Youfu and his wife for a while.
The juniors were not allowed to be present. Jiang Rui sewed an old clothes in his room. Today, he went up the mountain to collect firewood, and the clothes were torn apart by thorns.
Du Baozhen lay in front of the desk, secretly not knowing what to do, and after a while, he would look back at her movement, as if he was afraid of being seen by her.
Jiang Rui knew that she had been in contact with Han Wenke. At the moment, most of them were writing to each other.
After a long time, there was a noise outside, Zhang Liyun and Zhao Daqiu said goodbye, Wang Tonghua sent people to the door, and when he returned to the house, he called Jiang Rui.
"Girl, your Uncle Zhao and they just came and said that Zhao Nan liked you very much, and the Zhao family were very satisfied with you. You know the conditions of his family, you know, there is no second family in the brigade to match our family, we are climbing high, so Your dad and I thought for a while, there is nothing to fault, even if this marriage is set, what do you think?"
Jiang Rui lowered his head and said softly, "I have no opinion."
"That's good, that's good." Wang Tonghua said with joy, and said: "There is one more thing. Originally, your dad and I thought that you don't need to be too anxious about the date. It will be done in three to five months or six months, but Anan His situation is different from others. When he comes back to visit relatives this time, he will have to wait for a year when he comes back next time. So the Zhao family means that the sooner the better, it’s better to get the wedding done before Anan returns to the army this time. Okay. It’s a little tighter, but your Aunt Zhang also said that their family will prepare everything that should be prepared, including the three major pieces of furniture and beds. Others have married others, and you also have them. Although Mom felt a little anxious, But think about Anan’s age. If you delay for a year, you will wait a year. What do you think?"
Time is indeed a bit rushed. When we met that day, Zhao Nan said that his visit to family leave was for a month. In other words, if the two decide to get married now, then everything must be done within one month. You know, it takes half a year for ordinary people to get married, from looking at each other to setting a date, and then to actually having a wedding.
But Jiang Rui had no intention of delaying, the longer the time, the greater the variables.
Even so, she could not agree immediately, otherwise it would be too urgent for people.
She raised her head to look at Wang Tonghua, frowning in embarrassment: "Mom, do I want to do it all night?"
"Of course," Wang Tonghua said quickly: "This is a big deal, so you have to think about it, don't worry, if you really don't think it will work, mom will go to Zhao's house and talk to someone, so that people will postpone it."
That night, Jiang Rui'an slept peacefully, and told Wang Tonghua the next day that she agreed.
The marriage between the Zhao family and the Du family was really mentioned, and the people on the brigade also got the news.
Now Jiang Rui was walking on the road and was met by people, and everyone was going to tease her a few words. She lowered her head slightly, and smiled shyly at the corner of her mouth.
Seeing that she is well-behaved and shy, and the people next to her are not too good, just talking and laughing, but she is all feeling that an old bamboo like Du Youfu can give birth to such a tender shoot.
It was also said that the Du family and the Zhao family were not suitable for the family, but the daughter of the Du family and the son of the Zhao family were very good.
There is a local custom that the two families verbally say that after the marriage, the relatives of both parties should go to each other's home together to have a look.
People on the woman’s side mainly look at the man’s house, the family, and the young man’s ability. But when the man goes to the woman’s house, he is looking at the house’s tidiness, the girl’s diligence, and the love of cleanliness.
After reading both sides, the horoscopes of the two young people are counted as days. After that, the man will prepare three big pieces and hire them at the woman's house.
A few days before the New Year, Jiang Rui, Wang Tonghua, and several aunts and aunts went to Zhao's house with Du's house.
Aunt Du's was born with a loud voice, and she yelled outside the yard: "Sister Liyun, let's go to your house to ask for tea!"
The Zhao family greeted them almost immediately.
Jiang Rui saw Zhao Nan. He was standing behind Zhang Liyun, wearing a pair of military uniforms and trousers with a white shirt and gray sweater on top. The cuffs were rolled up, revealing a strong and strong forearm.
The Zhao family asked the guests to sit down in the main hall and serve two large trays of peanut seeds and fruit.
Jiang Rui was originally standing behind the elders, but was suddenly pushed in front of the others by her aunt. Her aunt laughed and said, "We Baoqin brought it to you. Where is Anan?"
So Zhao Nan was also pushed out, and the two stood facing each other. Jiang Rui was blushing and didn't dare to look up, but Zhao Nan went straight there.
When the elders around met, they laughed more happily.
In the end, Zhang Liyun managed to get through. In the final analysis today, it was a confrontation between two relatives. No matter what happened to their client, she asked Zhao Nan to take Jiang Rui out for a walk.
After leaving the hall, Jiang Rui raised his head and looked at Zhao Nan: "Shall we go to the dam and see?"
Zhao Nan was thinking about where to take her. Hearing the proposal, he immediately agreed.
"Wait a minute." Seeing that he was about to go out, Jiang Rui said: "Should I put on my coat? It's windy outside, don't catch a cold."
"Okay, wait a minute." Zhao Nan strode back to the house, took his coat, remembered something before leaving, and walked back again.
Zhao's family was on the reservoir and walked down a gentle to reach the dam. In summer, the dam is a good place for people to enjoy the cool, but this season there are not many people.
The two walked side by side, an arm far apart, and they walked half a dam without speaking.
As the cold wind blew on his face, it was a bit cold, and Jiang Rui suddenly stopped.
Although Zhao Nan looked ahead, Yu Guang had been paying attention to her movement, watching her stop, and immediately stopped, turning around to look at her.
The height difference between the two of them was one head. Jiang Rui looked at him and needed to raise his head slightly, while Zhao Nan had to lower his head.
He glanced at her, his eyes wandered away unnaturally, then swam back in the next instant, and when he found that she was still looking at him, he immediately moved away.
Jiang Rui bent his lips and smiled softly.
Zhao Nan pressed his lips tightly, and the corners of his mouth almost became a straight line. People who didn't know thought he was angry, but if you look closely, you can find that his ears are all red.
"When are you going to take me all the way? Is there nothing you want to say to me?" Jiang Rui asked him softly.
Zhao Nan slid his throat up and down, spitting out a word like "Yes."
The left hand, which had been stuck in his pocket, stretched out and spread out in front of Jiang Rui. Inside was a handful of toffee that was deformed by him.
"Would you like candy?" he asked.
Jiang Rui was taken aback for a moment: "You didn't speak just now, just thinking about whether to buy me candy?"
Zhao Nan answered the wrong question: "Cici said it was delicious." The two packets of sweets were kept in his mother. I don't know where they were placed. These were the ones he took from Zhao Qianqian just now.
He thought for a while, and then said, "Mom took away the scarf and candy. I will buy it next time."
So he kept silent because the gift he was going to give her was confiscated, and he felt a little awkward? Maybe because of her dishonesty, she still feels a bit shameless?
Jiang Rui smiled and picked up a candy, peeled off the outer wrapping paper, there was a layer of glutinous rice paper inside. She put the glutinous rice paper and the white toffee into her mouth together, the sweetness spread in her mouth, accompanied by a Fragrant milk.
"Sweet, delicious." Jiang Rui said with his eyes bent, his cheeks puffed up by sugar.
Zhao Nan didn't speak, staring at her blushing face for a while, then suddenly started, peeling off all the toffee wrapping paper in his hand a few times and handing it to Jiang Rui.
There are a total of seven or eight, if you eat it in one go, it will be too sweet and salty.
Jiang Rui stood on tiptoe, stretched out a thin white finger, flicked a few times in his palm, divided the sugar into two parts, looked up at him and said, "We are one and half."
Zhao Nan didn't like to eat, but under her sight, he only nodded.
The two of them, one for me, one for me. Not far away from the Zhao family, Zhao Qianqian, who was back to the room hiding from the guests and preparing to secretly eat candy, stretched out her hand under the pillow and touched it. She was shocked, "Where is my candy? "
