Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

During this period, Liu Guangtian felt that life was extremely difficult and painful. He mentioned many times that he wanted to marry Qin Jingru.

However, Liu Haizhong and his wife were extremely determined. Every time he was beaten by Liu Haizhong with the belt, his body was covered with scars, and the injuries were even more serious than when he was a child.

This attitude of his parents made Liu Guangtian feel a strong hatred in his heart.

"Guangfu, tell me, are we really their children?"

Liu Guangtian lay on the bed, enduring the pain in his back, and asked hatefully, not even calling his parents.

In fact, he has asked this question more than once.

"Brother, I don't want to be their son either, but we have no choice. I'm beginning to envy Yi Boyuan. Look at the life he's leading now. What kind of life are we leading?"

"I'm envious too. Yi Boyuan isn't even his biological son."

Thinking of the orphan with a pale face when he first entered the courtyard, and then thinking of the uncle and aunt who raised him like a treasure, not only did he wear bright clothes, but he also had no worries about food and drink. Now he has become visibly fatter, as if he had fallen into a blessed nest.

"Brother, will you provide for their retirement in the future?"

Liu Guangtian was lying on his stomach, and when he heard this, he immediately arched his body and said, "What the hell, let the boss raise them, I don't care."

After saying that, he fell down heavily again.

"Okay, I won't raise him either. I'll let the eldest brother raise him. After all, the eldest brother is the most favored."

Suddenly, Liu Guangtian started to cry softly.

"Brother, why are you crying?"

Liu Guangtian sobbed and said, "Guangfu, I don't think I can marry Qin Jingru."

"why?"

"I am not eligible for a room, and I have no place to live. They are determined to oppose it, and I have no way to resist. What else can I do if I don't give up? Qin Jingru can't wait for me forever."

Liu Guangfu sighed and said nothing more. He also knew that under the current circumstances, this marriage would definitely not be possible.

Liu Guangtian was waiting for his parents' consent, while Xu Damao was waiting for Qin Jingru to visit the courtyard again.

However, they were also disappointed.

After waiting for three months, Xu Damao still didn't see Qin Jingru in the courtyard, so his mission to find his wife naturally made no progress.

The plan for a year lies in spring.

Xu Damao didn't know that now was the busiest time in the countryside. Spring is the time for planting and autumn is the time for harvesting. Spring is the beginning of a busy life in the countryside, with work to do from plowing the land, watering the land, fertilizing to weeding.

Today's wheat seeds are of average quality and their yield is not high, but rural people firmly believe in this saying: If you dig an inch more soil in spring, you will harvest an extra load of grain in autumn.

Therefore, no matter how arrogant Qin Jingru was, she still had to do the farm work. She was exhausted every day, which made her more determined to marry into the capital.

"What should I do? If I ask Qin Huairu for help, well, it probably won't work. She won't agree. It seems that I have to take the initiative to go to the countryside and find her directly. I believe that with my ability, I can definitely do it."

Xu Damao thought for a while and decided to take the initiative.

If you want to do it, just do it. The next day, which was a day off, early in the morning, Xu Damao carried a backpack filled with dry food and a bag of cold pork head, rode his bicycle, and headed towards Changping.

But he soon regretted it.

"I was so stupid. It was more than 20 kilometers away. Why didn't I take the bus and put my bike on the top of the bus? It would be so much easier!"

Muttering to himself, Xu Damao, who was dazzled by the beauty, pedaled the bike with all his might and sweated all over. Bicycles nowadays are not light. They are not tiring for short distances, but for long distances, it's a bit of a hassle. With Xu Damao's physique, he would be exhausted by the time he arrived at the destination.

It was not until half past ten that he finally arrived at Qinjia Village, Changping District.

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw three girls about 17 or 18 years old. Each of them carried a straw basket on their arms and was ready to return to the village. The baskets were full of green grass for feeding pigs and livestock.

What a coincidence, among the three girls, one of them is Qin Jingru.

Xu Damao was overjoyed. He quickly stopped the car, tidied himself up a bit, and walked slowly towards Qin Jingru.

"Huh? Aren't you Xu Damao who plays the movie?"

"It's me. Are you Qin Jingru? Is this your village?"

"Yes, why are you here?"

Qin Jingru didn't expect that Xu Damao came to see her specially, so she was a little confused.

"Oh, it's the weekend today, and I have nothing to do, so I just went out for some fun. I didn't expect that I would end up here while riding. What a coincidence, I actually ran into someone I know."

Xu Damao responded calmly, as if he had done something insignificant. He had learned to brag when he was one year old. When he grew up, he knew that in order to attract girls' attention and to gain their gaze, he had to brag, and he had to do it as if nothing had happened, and also in a way that was extraordinary.

"Ah? You have nothing to do, so why do you ride your bike so far to have fun?"

Qin Jingru was shocked when she heard the answer, and the other two girls were no exception. They had never even been to the town and could not imagine how people could be so idle and could come out and play casually.

"Is it far? Hey, I often go to the countryside to show movies, but I've been to a lot of places. Now I can recognize the way when I go out to play, and I don't know when it will be useful."

One of the girls asked in surprise, "Are you showing the movie?"

"Yes."

Qin Jingru said: "The last time I went to Beijing, I watched the movie he showed. It was great."

There was a strong sense of pride in her voice. She was able to visit the capital and watch a movie, which made her friends in the countryside very envious and greatly satisfied her vanity.

"Comrade Qin Jingru, is there a state-owned restaurant nearby?"

It was noon. Xu Damao had been riding for several hours. At this moment, he was not only tired but also hungry. It was not easy for him to suggest going directly to Qin Jingru's house for dinner.

"There are no state-owned restaurants around here. The only restaurants are in town."

Xu Damao patted the handlebars with his palms and said regretfully, "Oh, we still have to go to town. I did bring some food, but it's a little hot and I'm very thirsty. I want to eat in a restaurant and order a bowl of soup."

Qin Jingru heard this and said, "Comrade Xu Damao, why don't you come to my house and have some water?"

She didn't want to take advantage of his food. After all, he was an acquaintance in her sister's courtyard. It was nothing to just drink some water when she was thirsty. People in the countryside were more hospitable, weren't they?

"Isn't it okay to disturb your family?"

"It's okay. You and my sister are from the same courtyard. Drinking water is nothing."

Xu Damao's face showed joy and he was very proud in his heart, thinking: Here comes the opportunity.

Yes, the opportunity has come.

First get to know Qin Jingru's family, get their approval, and then get this girl. Then you will have a satisfactory wife.

"Come on, put the basket on the cart. You don't have to carry it. Oh, you are so capable. You cut so much grass."
