Chapter 2073: Don’t do it for yourself
Jun Lang sighed, and then handed the man to his younger brother. He walked out of the alley and happened to see Zhu Ruonan passing by. He asked casually:
"Hey, isn't this the glorious worker Sister Zhu? It's so early today!"
Zhu Ruonan glared at the other party and said nothing. After all, they were neighbors in the next courtyard. Although they didn't interact much, they were familiar with each other. No matter how much Jun Lang was hanging around, he was always outside and would not easily touch the neighbors in the courtyard.
He also has an elderly grandma and little sister who need help taking care of them. He is responsible for earning money outside to support the family. However, because he does not have a formal job, he has been selling things on the black market. Nothing has happened to him these years.
Zhu Ruonan took two steps forward, then suddenly stopped and turned back to look at Jun Lang. This time she looked very carefully.
Jun Lang is nearly 1.8 meters tall, but he is a little thin. Although his clothes are patched, he looks very clean. His skin is a little yellow, and his appearance is not the popular thick eyebrows and big eyes. Instead, he has a pair of peach blossoms. Eyes, everyone looks affectionate.
Jun Lang felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Zhu Ruonan. He frowned and asked:
"What are you looking at?"
After reading it, Zhu Ruonan said:
"Look at how good-looking you are."
Jun Lang opened his mouth in shock at these words, feeling that his and Zhu Ruonan's positions seemed to have been reversed, and he was being teased.
"You"
Seeing Jun Lang's expression change, Zhu Ruonan stopped teasing him and said with a serious face:
"Jun Lang, are you free this weekend? I have something to do with you this afternoon. Can we meet in person?"
Jun Lang looked Zhu Ruonan up and down before saying:
"What are you talking to me about? We're not familiar with each other!"
Zhu Ruonan smiled and said:
"It's a good thing and I won't let you suffer. Are you coming? I'm in a rush to go to work and can't tell you in detail."
Jun Lang didn't know what kind of medicine Zhu Ruonan was selling in the gourd, but he was not afraid of trouble, so he said:
"Then you can decide the place at four o'clock this weekend."
"Under the elm trees in the lake center park."
"Okay."
The two separated after making an agreement.
Jun Lang's younger brother came around and asked a little obscenely:
"Brother Jun, is that beautiful woman your mistress?"
After hearing this, Jun Lang gave the other party a tap on the back of his head, and then said coldly:
"Ivory cannot come out of a dog's mouth. I am a female textile worker with a serious job. She is different from bastards like us. I am not looked down upon by others."
The younger brother touched the back of his head and said:
"Brother Jun, you don't have anything wrong except that you don't have a job. Maybe people just like you because you have no burden?"
"Shut up! It's time to leave. See you at the same place tonight!"
Jun Lang waved his hands impatiently, turned around and left, but there was a clear look of loneliness on his face. He knew that with his family situation, people would not look at him at all. He probably asked him to meet because he wanted him to help in the black market. Going shopping to exchange some things, he heard his grandma mention that something good was coming for Zhu Ruonan.
Zhu Ruonan naturally didn't know what Jun Lang was thinking. She used the remaining three days of this week to sort out all the things she had to do during the weekend. The remaining things were to deal with household chores. Anyway, housework It's all done the same way, so if she cooks more, she won't lose a piece of meat.
And because she cooked all the meals in the Zhu family, it was convenient for her to add extra meals for herself. Anyway, no one would notice it for the time being. We will wait until next month when she gets the ration. It is estimated that she will have left the Hu family by then. Over the weekend, Zhu Ruonan put on a floral shirt and army green pants, braided two braids, and was ready to go out with her shoulder bag on her back.
"Mom, I went to Hu's house. I won't be back for dinner today. I've made breakfast and put it in the pot. Remember to eat it. If I'm not back at six o'clock, you don't have to keep me for dinner."
Zhu Mu yawned and opened the bedroom door and said to Zhu Ruonan:
"I understand, go and come back early, don't let Hu Yang take advantage of you?"
"I know."
After saying that, Zhu Ruonan left the house. When she came out of the yard, she met the aunties who greeted her politely. When she walked out of the alley, she saw Hu Yang waiting under the tree by the roadside.
Hu Yang was in a good mood today. He was wearing steel factory work clothes and looked very energetic. When he saw Zhu Ruonan, he smiled and waved:
"Ruonan, this way."
Zhu Ruonan was just in a daze for a moment, then nodded and walked over, and the two of them walked towards where the Hu family was.
The Hu family lived in the family courtyard of the steel factory, which was a tube building allocated by the work unit. The Hu family lived in a 40-square-meter house for five members of the Hu family. When she got married, there would be a family of six. It was really cramped, and there was no secret.
In her previous life, she lived in this tube building for seven years, and she didn't move out until she gave birth to her last daughter.
After entering the Hu's house, Hu's mother enthusiastically took Zhu Ruonan's hand and praised her. She also directed her two young sons to make brown sugar water for her, put the Chinese New Year melon seeds and peanuts on the table, and urged her. eat.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
Zhu Ruonan pretended to be reserved and thanked her. After eating two peanuts, she stopped moving.
Hu's mother was very satisfied with this. She thought that Zhu Ruonan was not a greedy person, so she went to prepare lunch with a smile. In the future, when her daughter-in-law came to visit, she would not even leave a meal. It would definitely be annoying if the neighbors knew about it. Er arranged her.
Zhu Ruonan was not polite and said to Mother Hu after lunch:
"Aunt Hu, there are some things I want to tell you and Brother Hu alone."
Hu's mother thought she was talking about marriage, so her future in-laws asked her daughter to talk to her about the amount of the bride price so that both parties could have room for discussion. She agreed with a smile and sent her two younger sons away.
When there were only three people left in the house, Zhu Ruonan said with a sad and helpless look:
"Aunt Hu, Brother Hu, I'm afraid there are changes in the marriage."
Mother Hu's face changed when she heard this, she frowned and said:
"Ruonan, what's going on? You and Yangzi have been dating for two months, and now it's inappropriate to say that your marriage has changed, isn't it?"
Zhu Ruonan smiled bitterly and said:
"Auntie, there is no problem between Brother Hu and I, and I have no intention of going back on my word. But last night I overheard my family discussing my marriage. They said that after Brother Hu and I get married, they will all have to pay for the bride price and the three major items. They would not let me take him back to the Hu family, and after Brother Hu and I received the certificate, they asked me to transfer the work to my brother, saying that I would be raised by the Hu family after I got married and complete the task of raising children. "
"What?"
Mother Hu's voice rose an octave, and her face fell. The Hu family was not marrying off their daughter, but selling their daughter, and they didn't intend to leave any of it to the Hu family.
Zhu Ruonan's eyes were already red and she said with tears:
"Auntie, I know my parents are dishonest, but I really want to live with Brother Hu, but I don't want to marry into the Hu family like this, so I tell you the truth. I hope you are prepared."
Mother Hu had regained her composure at this time, and the smile was no longer on her face, but she still took a deep breath and said:
"Ruonan, Auntie knows that you are a good boy. You are willing to tell us this. Your brother Hu and I are grateful to you. It's just that you and Yangzi have been dating for so long. If it doesn't work out now, your parents will definitely come to make trouble."
Good night, my dears~
