Eating melons

After saying that, Liu Jiaojiao looked at Wu Mei next to her and asked curiously:

"Wu Mei, how about you? Are you having fun at home these days? Why are you back so early?"

Liu Jiaojiao never thought that she would return to the Red Star Brigade so soon.

You have to know that before this, Wu Mei had been talking about wanting to go home and being worried about her family, and her desire to go back was even stronger than her own.

Wei Wei and Jiang Qi also looked at Wu Mei curiously. To be honest, they also thought that Wu Mei would be the last to come back.

But Wei Wei didn't ask. Wei Wei thought Wu Mei came back so early because Li Zhibin came back so early.

After all, if she came back later, it would be unsafe for her, a girl, to travel such a long distance.

Seeing them like this and knowing their personalities, Wu Mei did not hide anything and told them what had happened at home during this period.

After hearing about Wu Mei's experiences over the past few months, the three of them didn't know what to say and were a little overwhelmed for a moment.

I don’t know if this is offensive or if it has touched Wu Mei’s sore spot.

The reason she asked this question was that according to Wu Mei's past descriptions, her family treated her very well and there was no sense of serious male chauvinism.

Her family lives in harmony, so I thought asking these questions wouldn't be offensive.

I didn't expect so many messy things to happen when Wu Mei went back this time.

The most embarrassed person was Liu Jiaojiao, after all, she was the one who asked the question.

"I'm sorry, Wu Mei, I don't know this, I..."

Seeing Liu Jiaojiao's guilty look, Wu Mei quickly waved her hands.

"It's okay, it's okay. It's nothing to me. In fact, even if you didn't ask, I would have said it. I want you to give me some advice. I really don't know what to do."

The ones who didn't know what to do after hearing this were Liu Jiaojiao, Jiang Qi and Wei Wei, especially Jiang Qi and Wei Wei.

Because in this kind of matter they can only give some suggestions, or it can't be said to be suggestions, they can only help her analyze the pros and cons. What to do depends on what Wu Mei wants to choose.

This is different from what I talked about with Wu Mei and the others before about having children.

After all, I told her before that she should make a decision before having a baby because childbirth causes great damage to a girl's body, and those suggestions are really good for her.

But this is different, the nature is different.

There are pros and cons to any choice. We cannot say which one is better or worse. It depends on the relative situation.

Liu Jiaojiao on the side also thought so. This was Wu Mei's business, and it was not easy for them to make a decision.

Of course, if it were her, she would definitely not choose to marry and return to the city.

And with someone like that, she wouldn't even think about it, and her parents wouldn't agree.

But Wu Mei's situation is different from hers. She has her parents to support her, but Wu Mei's parents have no way to support her.

Moreover, as far as she was concerned, her parents would never let that kind of person enter her eyes, so she really had no good opinions.

If she and Wu Mei put themselves in each other's shoes, to be honest, she wouldn't know what to do.

After all, if her family conditions were like Wu Mei's, she would go crazy.

She really couldn't stand the life in the countryside because she would starve to death without her parents' support.

Then she would definitely try her best to return to the city. If she returned to the city, at least there would be food supplies, and she wouldn't have to work in the fields.

Therefore, she didn't know what to say about Wu Mei's situation.

"I don't know how to put it. To me, there's no way I'd marry that kind of person. Living with that kind of person for the rest of my life would pretty much ruin it.

Although it may be uncomfortable for me to say this, it is the truth.

Our conditions are there, we are different, and my ideas may not apply to you.

If we switch places and I were to take your perspective, to be honest, I wouldn't know what to choose.

If I didn’t have the financial support from my family, I wouldn’t even be able to support myself in the countryside. But in the city, at least I wouldn’t starve to death.

Of course, if you choose this method to return to the city, it is feasible if you are sure that you can capture the man.

If you can completely control him, this can also be said to be a way out.

Of course, this is just my opinion, after all, everyone has their own opinions and choices."

Liu Jiaojiao thought about it and realized that if she were in Wu Mei's situation, she might choose to return to the city, but she would definitely try her best to take the initiative.

She would not go back until she had the initiative. She just wanted to live a good life, not to die.

Hearing this, Wu Mei quickly shook her head, "Impossible, there is absolutely no way I can control him.

To be honest, I really can’t imagine what my life would be like for the rest of my life if I married someone like that.

If that's the case, I'd rather never go back to the city and stay in the Red Star Brigade. Even though it's a bit tiring, at least I have a house, money, and food. It's just that without tickets, it's not that convenient to buy things."

What Wu Mei didn't say was that if it really didn't work, if she needed anything, she could buy it on the black market at a high price. She just didn't want to go back this way.

Or rather, I don't want to go back by marrying that kind of person.

Hearing this, Liu Jiaojiao nodded, "That's true. After all, you are different from me. You can support yourself in the countryside, unlike me, who is useless no matter what I do."

Speaking of this, Wu Mei felt indescribably aggrieved.

"I never thought that my parents would become like this after just one year of not seeing them.

They have lived for so many years, can't they see that it is a hellish pit?

I really don't want to speculate about them with malice, but the facts are in front of me, and it's really hard to deceive myself."

It's hard to believe that my parents really aren't making plans for my younger brother.

But Wei Wei felt that this might not be the case, because Wu Mei had been spending a lot of time with them, and had been somewhat led astray by her and Jiang Qi. She was used to thinking about problems using her and Jiang Qi's way of thinking, but their situations were different.

She and Jiang Qi's thinking in many aspects is decades ahead of this era. It doesn't make sense to judge the thinking of people of this era with the thinking of decades later.

Therefore, Wu Mei may have been led into a misunderstanding by her and Jiang Qi's thinking, or Wu Mei's current thinking is a bit too stubborn.

Based on Wu Mei's previous description of her parents, Wei Wei felt that although Wu Mei's parents might want to help their son, it was not necessarily the case. They must have been considering their daughter as well.

After all, Wu Mei's parents may not know Wu Mei's current true situation.

If Wu Mei had not come to the Red Star Brigade and had not met this group of people, she would not even be able to have enough food and clothing in the countryside.

In this case, if her parents are determined to let her return to the city, it must be for her own good.

After all, you can imagine how dangerous it is for a girl to live in the countryside these days.

As Wu Mei said, her mother found those people for her just to transfer her back.

After being transferred back, no matter how bad the situation is, at least I can still take care of things and lend a hand.

If they were in the countryside, they might not even know they were being bullied to death.

Her parents were only capable of so much, and this might be the best they could think of.

Because Wu Mei's household registration cannot be changed as long as she does not have a job, she will have a rural household registration. Her children will also have rural household registration and will not be supplied with food. In this case, the pressure of supporting the family in the future will be very great.

Men who have jobs in the city generally will not marry a girl with rural household registration because the pressure of supporting the family in the future will be too great.

It’s just because their attention was focused on getting Wu Mei back to the city, so Wu Mei’s parents didn’t consider many things so comprehensively, or they considered them too idealistically.

Seeing that Wu Mei was a little bit obsessed with something, Wei Wei quickly comforted her:

"Actually, that's not necessarily true. Are your grandparents from the countryside? Did your parents grow up in the countryside?"

After hearing this, Wu Mei didn't know why Wei Wei asked this, but she nodded and said, "Yes."

"That's right. In the countryside, no matter what the situation is, the more people in the family the better, and it must include boys.

Because when something happens, conflicts usually end in fighting, with the whole family coming to your door with hoes.

So your parents' thinking is understandable. They think that you will have someone to rely on if you have a younger brother.

It's just that your parents are too idealistic. It's different in the city. To put it bluntly, the higher the official, the more powerful he is.

Your parents may just not have thought about it in this way.”
