After a long silence, Song Lan continued, "Actually, from the beginning when I met Han Bailan through you and learned that she was my future sister-in-law, I felt that she was not worthy of you. Whether it was her appearance or her temperament, she was not very good in my eyes."

"Don't worry, silly girl. I'm not a teenage boy who would get hung up on such a small matter."

Song Qingbin raised his lips slightly and said, "Besides, I don't have deep feelings for her, or to be more precise, I only have some good feelings for her, but the good feelings were gone the moment she revealed her character flaws.

In addition, she repeatedly took the initiative to cancel the engagement with me and said those derogatory words to my face. If I really marry such a woman, I am afraid it will become my lifelong nightmare!

Fortunately, she was able to do it herself, and our family was able to cancel the engagement smoothly."

"That's good."

Song Lan smiled, curled up the corners of her lips, and raised her pretty eyebrows slightly. She asked: "But, isn't it too embarrassing for you, brother?"

"As a human being, there is no such thing as being shameless. After all, everyone has their own thoughts. If you are shameless, wouldn't you be a scoundrel or a two-faced person at heart?

But in some things, there is a type of people who don't care about their face, for example, when their bottom line is touched, and I am one of this type of people.

Based on this, you really don't need to worry about me. Compared to being gossiped about and embarrassed, I don't want to be cuckolded! "

After saying this, Song Qingbin looked relaxed. In Song Lan's opinion, there was no sign of reluctance in his words.

She relaxed and was completely relieved about Song Qingbin. She said with a smile: "Brother has a very good attitude. You should keep it up!"

After a pause, she continued, "My eldest brother and I agree that face is nothing when faced with certain things, and as long as we have a clear conscience, it doesn't matter what others say, as it won't cost us a thing anyway."

Hearing this, Song Qingbin's dark eyes were tinged with a smile, and he said: "From the first time we met, I knew that you are an open-minded girl."

"You are wrong!"

Song Lan's eyes flashed with cunning, and she said: "Although I can be shameless in some things, I am also very stingy in some things."

"I understand your idea."

Song Qingbin smiled dotingly: "It's good to be open-minded, but if this open-mindedness becomes too generous, it will probably become a disaster for the people around you!"

"Mom also said that I'm good at talking. Now I know that compared to you, big brother, I'm nothing!"

Seeing the sly smile in Song Lan's eyes, Song Qingbin laughed out loud: "In our family, I am the dumbest person with words. If you don't believe me, you can ask my parents and my younger brother."

"Sister! Sister, brother! I have something to tell you!"

Before anyone arrived, Song Guoqing's voice had already spread from the courtyard gate into the main room.

"How old are you? Can't you be more steady?!"

Seeing Song Guoqing running into the main room, Song Qingbin frowned and couldn't help but say something.

"Brother, don't you know how old I am?"

Sitting on the bamboo chair, Song Guoqing deliberately misinterpreted Song Qingbin's meaning and laughed heartlessly.

"Is that what I meant?"

Song Qingbin glanced at Song Guoqing and said, "You are fourteen now. You are not a three-year-old child. You need to learn to be steady in your words and deeds."

"I haven't seen my second brother be so stable when he was my age. Moreover, after he turned 20, he still speaks and acts the same as before he was 20."

Song Guoqing muttered to himself.

"Can't you learn something good? Do you have to be like your second brother?"

Song Qingbin's tone sounded somewhat disappointed.

Song Lan just smiled and listened quietly without interrupting.

"Brother, different people have different personalities. You are naturally steady, which is your characteristic. As for me, can't I be more eccentric?"

Hearing what Song Guoqing said, Song Qingbin rolled his eyes at him and said, "I don't know who used to act like a shy young wife when talking to people." Lively? The brat only looked more lively in front of the little sister. He was a shy and introverted little guy.

Of course, when he asked the other party to be more cautious a moment ago, it was just a casual remark.

Well, I can't deny that it has some preaching in it.

reason?

It's simple. In his opinion, rushing to others is impolite.

"What do you mean by shy as a young wife? Big brother, could you please stop talking bad to me?!"

Song Guoqing's face flushed, his eyes widened as he said, "I, I used to be a little quiet and introverted, but as I grow up, my personality slowly changes. Shouldn't this be normal?!"

Turning his gaze to Song Lan, the boy asked, "Sister, do you think what I said is right?"

"Correct!"

Song Lan's beautiful eyes curved like a crescent moon. She nodded, then smiled at Song Qingbin and said, "Brother, I am a sunny young man. Please don't say that he looks like a young wife."

"Brother, did you hear that? My sister said I was a sunny boy. If you say I'm like a shy young wife again, I will... I will let my sister make the decision for me. Let's see what you will do then."

Song Guoqing said with a smug look on his face. Hearing this, Song Qingbin raised his lips and said, "Your sister is my younger sister. Can she beat me up?"

"You never know. My sister is very strong. If you bully the weak, she might really use her fists on you. That way, she will teach you what 'loving the young' means!"

Song Guoqing became more and more proud as he spoke.

Song Qingbin continued to tease the boy: "Look how arrogant you are. I don't believe your sister would do that."

Song Lan smiled and said jokingly, "Brother, it's hard to say."

"Okay, I give in."

Song Qingbin looked helpless and shrugged: "Who made me your eldest brother?!" As the eldest brother, there is nothing wrong with pampering my younger siblings.

Song Lan and Song Guoqing laughed at the same time. After a moment, Song Lan asked Song Guoqing, "By the way, what do you want to tell me and my brother?"

"The old scoundrel Shi Baogen in our village is going to get married!"

As Song Guoqing spoke, his expression became a little complicated. Seeing this, Song Qingbin asked, "What's going on?"

"It was a cold day, and Yuan Zhiqing from the Youth Point ran to the river for some reason and fell into the water. Shi Baogen, a scoundrel, happened to pass by the river and jumped into the water to rescue Yuan Zhiqing.

Who knew that Yuan Zhiqing had fainted due to choking on water, and the second-rate guy, who didn’t know where he got the news from, gave Yuan Zhiqing artificial respiration in front of many people in our village, and even unbuttoned Yuan Zhiqing’s collar…”

Song Guoqing said at last: "After Yuan Zhiqing woke up, she slapped the old scoundrel in the face. Then she stood up and tried to leave the river, but she fainted again after taking two steps. The old scoundrel rushed forward, picked up Yuan Zhiqing and shouted, 'Wife, what's wrong with you?'

Later, a few educated youth arrived and snatched Yuan Zhiqing away from the old second-rate guy. Otherwise, the old second-rate guy would have taken advantage of Yuan Zhiqing even more.”

Song Qingbin looked at Song Lan and said, "According to seniority, we should call Shi Baogen our sixth uncle, but he is a real bastard. He has five older sisters, and his parents only managed to give birth to such a son when they were the sixth child.

So he was spoiled since he was young. I once heard my grandmother say that Shi Baogen's parents really treated their son like a treasure. They would never give him the moon or the stars if he asked for them. They also required the five older sisters in the family to hold and spoil their younger brother, and put their younger brother first in everything.

In order to make Shi Baogen live a good life, almost all of his five sisters were sold to the men's families by their parents. However, his five sisters did not blame their families at all. After getting married, if there was any good thing in their husband's family, they would always think of taking it back to their parents' home for their younger brother.

Over the years, the five sisters have been beaten by the men in their family, but they have never repented, causing their respective in-laws to guard against their daughters-in-law like thieves. Two years ago, two of Shi Baogen's five sisters were sent back to our village by their in-laws, who said that their family could not afford daughters-in-law who were traitors.

Sending it back is equivalent to divorce. After all, rural people rarely get a marriage certificate when they get married. Guess what Shi Baogen's parents did?"

Song Lan: "Married off again?"

Song Qingbin: "Rather than being remarried, it's better to say that they were sold again. Moreover, Shi Baogen's parents found some connections and married their two daughters to a village deep in the mountains with few families.

One was the wife of three brothers, and the other was the wife of an old bachelor who had polio in both legs and brain problems. In the early spring of last year, it was said that one of the sisters died in childbirth, and the other was working on a slope and fell off a cliff and died on the spot.

But Shi Baogen and his parents continued to live as if the two sisters and daughter had never existed, which showed that the three of them were worthless. As for Shi Baogen, he was about 32 or 33 years old this year. He had married two wives before. The first one died of complications during childbirth.

The second one was chased away by Shi Baogen less than half a year after he entered the family… It has been four or five years since then. People in our village and the surrounding villages all know what kind of people Shi Baogen’s family is. It seems that no one is willing to marry their daughter into the hell of Shi Baogen’s family. I didn’t expect such a thing to happen now.”

After the words fell, Song Qingbin sighed in his heart.

Song Guoqing: "Sister, the second-rate guy likes to drink a lot. He beats people when he is drunk. Many people in the village suspect that his first wife gave birth prematurely, and then died.

By the way, the second-rate guy never goes to the fields. After his five sisters got married, all the work points were earned by his parents. Shi Baogen eats and sleeps every day, or wanders around looking for people to play cards. If Yuan Zhiqing marries him...she will definitely not have a good life!"

"Such a person, and such a coincidence that he saved Yuan Zhiqing, and Yuan Zhiqing appeared by the river in such a cold day, and then accidentally fell into the water. No matter how I think about it, I feel that there is something fishy here."

Song Lan expressed her opinion.

Song Qingbin nodded: "It does seem like this was caused by humans."

"Brother, sister, I was just outside watching the fun, and heard the aunts in the village say that the educated youths in the Youth House are all cunning. They also said that when Yang Zhiqing fell into the water and was rescued by Er Gouzi, it was probably the educated youths in the Youth House who planned it, forcing Yang Zhiqing to marry Er Gouzi for the sake of her own reputation.

Now Yuan Zhiqing has done the same thing as Yang Zhiqing. The aunts said that in a few days, Yuan Zhiqing will have to marry into the old second-rate family. Otherwise, she will be too ashamed to stay in our village and may even be sent to a farm for reform. "

After listening to Song Guoqing, Song Lan frowned slightly and said, "As a victim, why would Yuan Zhiqing marry that man named Shi Baogen? Being sent to reform, in my opinion, this is even more impossible!"

"Yuan Zhiqing was given artificial respiration by Shi Baogen, and her reputation will definitely be affected. Shi Baogen obviously has his eyes on Yuan Zhiqing, and he can say anything. If Yuan Zhiqing doesn't marry him,

Unless she is thick-skinned enough to tolerate Shi Baogen's mother going to the Youth Home to make trouble, she can either find a way to be a Youth in a village far away from our village, or her family can transfer her back to the city. Otherwise, she can only marry Shi Baogen as his wife."

Song Qingbin expressed his views.

Song Guoqing: "Sister, what big brother said is right. Yuan Zhiqing should either leave our village and go to another village to join the production team, or be taken back to the city by her family. Otherwise, if she doesn't marry the second-rate guy, then given the difficulty of the second-rate guy's mother, Yuan Zhiqing will definitely not end up well in our village."

At this point, Song Guoqing didn't know what he was thinking about. He lowered his voice and asked, "Could it be that Song Jiaojiao is harming Yuan Zhiqing?"

"..."

Song Lan's eyes were filled with confusion.

Song Guoqing explained: "People in the Youth Academy and even in our village now know that Yuan Zhiqing and Song Jiaojiao have a bad relationship. They quarrel every few days, and sometimes even fight. Moreover, Yuan Zhiqing and Song Jiaojiao both like Chen Zhiqing. Maybe Song Jiaojiao secretly plotted against Yuan Zhiqing in order to be with Chen Zhiqing, which led to what happened today."

"Where did you hear this?" Song Lan said with amusement: "Could it be that those gossipy aunties in the village said this while chatting?"

Scratching his head, Song Guoqing smiled uncomfortably and explained, "Once I went to the village road to call my mother, and I saw that my mother was listening to some people gossiping, so I followed suit."

"Whether Yuan Zhiqing's matter is related to Song Jiaojiao or not, it has nothing to do with our family, so don't worry about it."

Song Jiaojiao likes Chen Dongze, and Song Lan naturally knows this. To be honest, Song Lan thinks it is possible that Yuan Xiaoya fell into the water because of Song Jiaojiao's scheme.

But no matter whether it is possible or not, Song Lan hopes that no one in this family will be involved in that matter, so as to prevent Song Jiaojiao from taking the opportunity to cause trouble.

"Those educated youth in the Youth House are really noisy!"

This was Li Jumei's voice. She walked into the main room and said something casually.

"My elder brother and I heard from the younger brother about it."

Song Lan said with a smile.

"That Yuan Zhiqing is so unlucky that she was rescued by Shi Baogen. If she can't leave us, she will probably have to marry him!"

Song Guoqing stood up and asked his old mother to sit on his bamboo chair, and he brought another bamboo chair and sat down on it.

Song Lan: "My brother said that the aunts in the village talking about Yuan Zhiqing are probably plotted against by someone."

"It doesn't matter whether it was a plot or not. The trouble was caused by the female educated youth in the Youth Farm. They can't earn many work points by working every day, but they are more capable than the other in plotting against others in secret."

As Li Jumei spoke, her eyes passed over Song Qingbin and Song Guoqing, and then she said to the brothers, "Stay away from those educated youths. Don't be foolish enough to fall for their tricks and bring home an educated youth wife with a heart as sharp as a sieve."
