Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

It was already bright when Yu woke up the next morning, and the aroma of breakfast spread into her nose along the window crack left by Lu Beiyuan last night.

Yu Jiang stood up slowly and then remembered that she and Lu Beiyuan were drinking at home last night, right?

I seemed to be drunk, and then... what happened after that? How come she has no impression at all!

Feeling something strange on my neck, I went to the table and picked up the mirror.

You won’t know until you see it, but you will be shocked when you see it! Yu Jiang touched the red marks on his neck. After a night, the originally bright red marks had become darker, but they looked even more ferocious.

Yu Jiang just looked at the several marks on his neck and his obviously swollen lips. If Lu Beiyuan were here right now, Yu Jiang would beat him up.

But with no one to vent to, Yu Jiang could only accept his fate and take out the repair medicine from the bracelet space and apply it on his lips and red marks.

The medicine produced by Xingxing was indeed miraculous. After a minute or two, the lips were almost back to normal. Those marks have almost disappeared, although there are still some traces, but it is winter now, and no one will notice it if I wear a turtleneck sweater.

Lu Beiyuan still came to the Yu family early in the morning. At the same time, he discussed with Yu's father and Yu's mother about letting his parents come to Fenghe Village during the New Year holiday. He wanted to take this opportunity to bring the two of them together. Let’s discuss the marriage.

Although Yu Jiang is not yet 18 years old, he still wants the two parties to meet first. Even if we can only discuss a preliminary matter this time, with this meeting, there is no problem in discussing the subsequent matters over the phone.

Although Yu's father was very reluctant, everyone in the village knew that Yu Jiang was talking to Lu Beiyuan, so it would be better to settle it as soon as possible.

But setting an agreement early does not mean that he agrees to let the two get married early!

The most that can be done is to let Lu Beiyuan stay as his fiancé for a while. Anyway, he can change at any time if it is not suitable before marriage.

However, Lu Beiyuan was already very satisfied with Father Yu's concession of allowing the two to get engaged first. As soon as he came out of Yu's house, he took Yu Jiang to the brigade to borrow a phone and called his father's office in the military region.

Although the whole phone call was filled with communication between Lu Beiyuan and Lu's father, Lu Beiyuan never let go of Yu Jiang's hand.

In order to prevent him from hearing something he shouldn't hear, Yu Jiang specifically said that he would wait for him outside the house. But Lu Beiyuan disagreed, saying that this was a matter between two people, and of course they had to participate together.

In the end, it was Yu Jiang who persuaded Lu Beiyuan through hard talk and did not let her communicate directly with Commander Lu in the military region over the phone. She was also afraid that her first conversation would embarrass Father Lu by talking about coming to discuss marriage, so she took the initiative to avoid suspicion.

Finally, after some discussion between the two of them, they decided to set off on the third day of Chinese New Year, fly directly to Province X, and then take a car to the county.

In fact, if Father Lu wanted to, he could borrow a car when he arrived in Province X. But after all, their trip was only for personal matters. They took the plane because their vacation was limited and they really couldn't spend a lot of time on the road. But after arriving in Province X, it was naturally better to keep a low profile.

Even so, Lu's father, who was busy with official duties, had to rush back on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, which meant that they could only stay in Province X for three days.

When he was about to hang up the phone, Yu Jiang heard Lu's father complaining that Lu Beiyuan's decision was too hasty and did not leave them any time to prepare.

This is not only a gift for the Yu family and Yu Jiang, they also have to prepare something for their youngest son Lu Nanchi. And all the original arrangements for the period from the third to the sixth day of the Lunar New Year must be advanced or postponed.

In this regard, Yu Jiang also expressed his utmost sympathy for Lu's father and Lu's mother. Who wouldn't be worried about such an unlucky son?

The matter of Father Lu and Mother Lu coming to the Yu family has finally been settled. There is still one week before New Year's Eve, and the Yu family still has enough time to prepare.

Lu Beiyuan smiled happily when everything was going smoothly.

But such a smile deeply hurt someone watching the two of them secretly.

Jiang Miao was so jealous that she almost crushed the handkerchief in her hand!

I think she put down her face and confessed her love to Lu Beiyuan but was ruthlessly rejected. Although no outsiders knew about this matter, for Jiang Miao, who had always been proud and arrogant, Lu Beiyuan was putting her dignity on the ground.

Moreover, even though Lu Beiyuan rejected her, he actually chose Yu Jiang, a country girl who couldn't compare to her in anything! This was more difficult for her to accept than Lu Beiyuan being with the people from the art troupe!

But they happened to be together, and since Lu Beiyuan came from Fenghe Village this time, he has almost stuck to Yu Jiang's side. He will go wherever Yu Jiang goes. How can she be willing to do this!

But having said that, Jiang Miao's life was indeed not going well during this period.

Although she still lives in one room in the Sun family, the Sun family still treats her respectfully. However, during this period, the number of times the Sun family asked her for money increased significantly, saying that it was normal for things to increase in price since it was winter and the Chinese New Year was approaching.

Although Jiang Miao was dissatisfied, she did not say it directly. She also went to the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores in the county to take a look. The prices of some things had indeed increased, but in fact, the money needed to buy them was more than the money she gave them. A lot less.

The day Jiang Miao came back from the county, she made a big fuss at the Sun family, saying that the Sun family had cheated her out of her money. This also woke up the secretary who was sleeping at home next door.

The Sun family explained that because Jiang Miao only gave them money but not tickets, they could only go to the black market to buy things for Jiang Miao. The prices of things on the black market were naturally higher than the prices of the same things in the supply and marketing cooperative. a little.

Therefore, even if the Sun family is greedy for money, it is only a small part.

The secretary originally wanted to mediate the conflict, but he heard the word black market.

Hey, shouldn't you keep a tight lid on this kind of reselling and buying? Is it really okay to say it in front of him, a cadre of the brigade? Should he pretend not to see it, or pretend not to see it?

And how could he bear this kind of thing alone?

Captain, why don't you come?

In the end, the matter was settled by the Sun family and Jiang Miao themselves, but after this incident, the relationship between the Sun family and Jiang Miao was damaged more than a little.

If it weren't for the 5 yuan a month, the Sun family would have kicked Jiang Miao out long ago.

And Jiang Miao never asked the Sun family to buy things for her anymore. If she wanted to buy something, she would go to the brigade and ask for leave, and rush to the supply and marketing cooperative at 1pm to buy things.

Jiang Miao did not share her food with the Sun family, and no one from the Sun family helped her with her share of the work, so Jiang Miao had no choice but to start working again.

So at this moment, when she actually saw the scene of Lu Beiyuan and Yu Jiang holding hands, Jiang Miao's jealousy and resentment were about to overflow.
