Ah, Li You really impresses me! Looking at Tang Ying covered in dirt, he couldn't help but scold, "You're not well yet. Why did you go to work so soon?" Tang Ying lowered her head and said in a low voice, "I... I don't feel uncomfortable either. Everyone else has gone to work, and I'll be gossiped about if I stay in the dormitory alone!" Li You said with a smile, "Let them talk. Anyway, we're getting married next month, and you won't be living here then. Let them say whatever they want!" Tang Ying raised her head and looked into Li You's eyes, asking, "You... Do you really want to marry me?" Li You knew that this matter was too sudden for Tang Ying, and it could even be said that it directly disrupted her life trajectory. If it weren't for this matter, she might have gone to the city in a few days, or at least she would have gotten a worker's identity. However, now she has to face the choice of giving up returning to the city and staying in the countryside for the rest of her life. Coupled with the fact that a woman loses her virginity before marriage, she is bound to lose the initiative in the marriage, which makes her worried. Li You patted his chest and said, "Tang Ying, listen up. I, Li You, not only want to marry you, but also want to marry you with the highest standard. I will give you a grand wedding!" Hearing Li You's resolute words, Tang Ying seemed to have made up some kind of determination. She also looked into Li You's eyes and said seriously, "I'll wait for you!" Li You was in a great mood and shook the various paper bags in his hand, saying, "Let's go back together. I brought you some food to help you send it to the dormitory!" Tang Ying frowned and said, "Don't spend money randomly. Uncle and aunt save money not easily!" Li You said with a smile, "Am I that ignorant? This money is earned by myself!" Tang Ying suddenly thought of something and asked, "Did you earn it by selling Liangpi?" Li You nodded and said, "Yeah!" Tang Ying asked again, "How's business?" Li You proudly said, "It's okay. It won't be a problem to support you and the kids in the future!" Tang Ying's face turned red immediately. After all, she was just a young girl who had just reached adulthood and had never had a serious relationship, let alone thought about having children. She said coquettishly, "Don't talk nonsense..." Li You saw that the girl was shy and smiled. He didn't dwell on this issue any further, but asked, "Where's my third sister? What happened to her?" Tang Ying said, "The wheat field in the east of the village needs watering.Nana and uncle and aunt went there to earn work points!" Li You suddenly realized and said, "Oh, that's why she didn't accompany you today!" Tang Ying looked at Li You, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Nana also told me about your family's situation. If you have difficulties, let uncle decide on the betrothal gift. Anyway, even if there is no betrothal gift, I have to marry you to avoid going into debt that we have to pay together!" Li You smiled and said, "Don't worry about this matter. Just wait Rest assured to be my bride!" Tang Ying blushed and said, "You..." The one-kilometer road was too short, and in a moment, the two returned to the educated youth spot. Li You didn't enter Tang Ying's dormitory, but handed the things to Tang Ying and was ready to leave. Tang Ying looked at the big and small bags in her hand, hesitated for a few seconds, and still couldn't help saying, "You... Be careful!" Li You knew that she was worried about being caught as a typical example for setting up a stall, and said with a smile, "Don't worry. I have Proportionality!" Tang Ying nodded and said, "Okay!" Just as Tang Ying turned around and was about to return to the dormitory, Li You suddenly asked, "Are you free tomorrow afternoon?" Tang Ying turned her head and asked, "What for?" Li You said with a smile, "I plan to propose to you tomorrow. Please prepare!" Tang Ying was shocked all over, and was momentarily stunned. Although she had already planned to yield to reality and accept the fact of marrying Li You, a second-rate guy, when the matter of marriage was really put on the agenda, she still felt a little flustered. Tang Ying thought of the quota for returning to the city and the figure in her heart. Once she really married Li You, she would be tied to this small mountain village for a lifetime and would be farther and farther away from Brother Cheng... Li You saw Tang Ying's entanglement and knew her concerns, but Li You didn't give her time to hesitate. He directly said, "Remember to change into clean clothes tomorrow and dress up beautifully. Wait for me to propose!" After saying that, Li You turned and left!
After leaving the educated youth spot, Li You didn't go home, but went straight to the back mountain. When he came to the "secret" stronghold, he didn't see Dongzi, Yongzi and others, but saw several large baskets filled with mushrooms on the embankment of the reservoir. Knowing that those guys should still be picking mushrooms in the mountains, Li You sat on the embankment and waited for them! When the sun was westward, five or six half-sized boys emerged from the woods one after another, each carrying a small wicker basket on their shoulders. Seeing Li You on the embankment from a distance, Dongzi and others couldn't help but quicken their pace. Dongzi said to Li You in a boastful tone, "Brother Yi, look how many mushrooms we picked today!" Li You looked at the three full baskets of fresh mushrooms in front of him, plus the ones in Dongzi's and their baskets, and estimated that there were at least a hundred catties. According to today's agreed price, the income from these mushrooms alone would be sixty or seventy yuan. Li You was in a great mood and immediately said, "Come here, I have something to say!" After a few young brothers gathered around, Li You took out a stack of red and green tickets from his pocket, and then said, "The mushrooms picked yesterday were sold, and the credit belongs to everyone, so everyone has a share of the income!" While saying this, Li You took out two one-yuan banknotes printed with a red tractor from it and handed them to Dongzi. Dongzi stammered, "Brother Yi... Is this for me?" Li You nodded and said, "Yes, two yuan for each person!" Dongzi widened his eyes and said, "Brother Yi... This... This is too much!" This is two yuan. You know, a serious worker in the city earns only about 35 or 36 yuan a month, which is about one yuan a day. Yesterday, they only worked for a short while, and today they have an income of two yuan, which makes them a little Dare not to take it. Li You said with a smile, "Take it. This is what you deserve!" Dongzi's throat moved, and he subconsciously swallowed his saliva. For these half-sized boys who rarely see pocket money on weekdays, the temptation of two yuan is really too great. Seeing that Li You didn't seem to be joking, Dongzi gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Yi, then I'll really take it!" Li You said with a smile, "Take it. This is your hard-earned money. Don't be embarrassed!" After receiving the two tickets from Li You, Dongzi couldn't hide his excitement. This was the first time he earned money by himself, and the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction was simply too great. With Dongzi taking the lead, the remaining few young brothers also received their labor rewards from Li You with excited expressions. Seeing the expressions of joy and excitement on these young brothers, Li You was also very happy. Two yuan is not much. After all, he sold those mushrooms for a full 40 yuan yesterday, but for these young brothers, it is a huge sum of money. More importantly, Li You also let them see their own value. Even they, the bad boys in other people's eyes, can earn money with their own hands. Li You said with a smile, "It's getting dark. Let's go back. We'll divide the money after selling the mushrooms tomorrow!" Dongzi and the others excitedly said, "Okay!"
