Eating melons

A bed, a wardrobe, a desk, and a chair piled with thermoses, washbasins, and enamel pots with peony flowers given by relatives and friends.

Their marriage certificate and a portrait of the great man are hung side by side in the most conspicuous position on the wall.

Many of the things inside were purchased by Xiao Xuemu in the past two days, and all the old ones were discarded.

They didn't decorate this place much during this period, and their focus was on the yard on the school side.

Since we will definitely live there in the future, we don’t care about too many things here.

Now that he can be with Wei Wei openly and no longer needs to be guarded by his family like a thief, Xiao Xuemu also breathed a sigh of relief.

He really didn't expect that the biggest obstacle in his relationship with his wife would be his family.

Mu Qing's original plan was for Wei Wei and Xiao Xuemu to live at home after they got married, and it didn't matter where Wei Wei and Xiao Xuemu lived.

After all, the Xiao family would not disturb them except when they were eating.

No matter what they were going to do or what they had done, no one ever asked.

I only ask them if they have eaten enough, if they are warm, what they want to eat, and what they want.

Therefore, Wei Wei had no objection to living with them.

As long as Xiao Xuemu's family doesn't disturb him and Wei Wei, it doesn't matter where they live.

But now we have to consider Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi doesn't want to live in the Li family too much, thinking that it is not a good idea. She also has no plans to get married so early, so she lives in Wei Wei's house.

Jiang Qi came so early to attend their wedding. Wei Wei didn't want to leave Jiang Qi alone, so Xiao Xuemu and Wei Wei moved to the house near the school after three days.

Wei Wei and Xiao Xuemu moved there, and Li Zhibin and Li Shiyuan also moved directly there.

Li Zhibin wanted to spend more time with Jiang Qi, while Li Shiyuan wanted to avoid being urged to get married.

This was the life the four of them lived when they were in the Red Star Brigade, and it wouldn't make any difference if they moved to another place.

As for Li Shiyuan who joined in, he was also very funny and humorous, and he quickly integrated into the small group.

The five of them lived a pretty good life, eating, drinking and having fun every day, and occasionally playing cards.

I originally thought that I could live this carefree life until school starts, after all, it’s not long before school starts.

Although school doesn’t start until the 28th day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival is almost here, which is only half a month away.

Unexpectedly, Wu Mei came at this time. When Wu Mei arrived, she was a little surprised to see a stranger.

In fact, they can’t be said to be strangers. Wei Wei and Xiao Xuemu met on their wedding day, but they had never interacted with each other.

Seeing Wu Mei and Jiang Qi, they were still quite excited. "Wu Mei, I forgot you are also from Beijing. There were too many people at Wei Wei's wedding and we didn't have much time to chat.

By the way, is your home far from here? I happen to have some time now, so let’s go play together.”

Wu Mei glanced at Li Shiyuan and nodded, "Okay, it's been a while since we last met. I'll definitely come if I have time."

Seeing Li Shiyuan here, and getting along so well with Wei Wei and the other three, as if they were even closer than her, with whom she had been playing for several years, made Wu Mei feel a little uncomfortable.

When Wu Mei learned that this was Xiao Xuemu's future teacher, she was so surprised that she didn't know what to say. He was only a few years older than them. They were students and he was a teacher.

Also, Wu Mei is just an ordinary student and is very in awe of her teacher. Therefore, she was embarrassed for a moment and didn't know how to get along with the teacher, which made her even more uncomfortable.

Seeing Wu Mei so uncomfortable, and knowing that she was a friend of Wei Wei and the others, Li Shiyuan considerately went out to meet up with some friends.

After Li Shiyuan left, Wu Mei no longer felt so uncomfortable. She also put aside her forced smile and looked worried.

Seeing Wu Mei like this, Wei Wei and Jiang Qi looked at each other, and Jiang Qi quickly asked:

"Wu Mei, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong? If there is anything, don't hide it."

Wu Mei sighed, "My parents don't agree with me and Lei Jiawei. They want me to break up with Lei Jiawei and go on a blind date again. Even if it's not a blind date, it's fine. They just want me to break up with Lei Jiawei."

Everyone was a little surprised to hear this.

"Why? Didn't Lei Jiawei get into university? What are your parents dissatisfied with about him? If you want to find a solution to this problem, you must find the reason why your parents are dissatisfied."

Wu Mei was completely helpless, so she did not hide anything from them.

“My parents looked down on Lei Jiawei’s school and thought that I had done better in the exams than Lei Jiawei, so they should choose someone better.

Secondly, they looked down on Lei Jiawei's family background and disliked the fact that he was from another province. They wanted me to find someone local, as they felt Lei Jiawei's family couldn't provide much support.

After hearing this, the four people present fell silent. Some didn't know what to say. How could they say it? No matter what they said, it wouldn't be right.

Is it true that Wu Mei's parents' idea is wrong? After all, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. This is an eternal truth, and everyone wants to go to higher places.

But whether you say it is right or not depends on your own conditions, because Wu Mei's own family cannot provide much help to her.

If the man is to provide any help, there will definitely be sacrifices, and Wu Mei will definitely need to give something, but she doesn't know what.

They also didn't know whether Wu Mei was willing to pay or whether she could afford to pay. It was hard for them to say.

Jiang Qi glanced at Wu Mei and asked, "So what do you think?"

"I think Lei Jiawei is a good person and I don't want to be separated from him."

Jiang Qi shrugged, "Then let's not separate. Your own opinion is the most important thing in matters like this. You have to be the master of your own life. You can't just listen to others in everything.

School is about to start anyway, so just put it off for now. When you live on campus, your parents won't be able to control you anymore."

Speaking of this, Wu Mei was full of helplessness. "My parents introduced me to someone else. Fortunately, Lei Jiawei hasn't come yet. If Lei Jiawei came, I don't know how to explain it to him."

After hearing this, they didn't know what to say. If they asked Wu Mei to refuse, it would feel like they were trying to sow discord between her and her family.

Let Wu Mei accept it, otherwise she will sow discord between Wu Mei and Lei Jiawei.

Jiang Qi looked at Wu Mei curiously, "What are the boy's conditions? What's his family situation?"

"His school is just a technical college, but his family is from Beijing. His uncle is the deputy director of my father's factory. As soon as he graduates, he will definitely go to his uncle's factory, and he will have a position there. He will definitely be promoted faster than others, and his future is very good."

After hearing this, the four people present immediately understood that sacrificing Wu Mei would bring glory to the whole family.

However, they don’t know whether this will be beneficial to Wu Mei. But judging from Wu Mei’s description, Wu Mei seems to be a little moved and is just hesitant now.

One has poor academic qualifications but a good family background, and the other has poor family background but a good academic qualification. I don’t know how to choose.

Jiang Qi sighed, "As I said before, follow your own inner thoughts. After all, this is your life, and you have to live it yourself from now on.

You can't just listen to us, because your situations are different and your thinking is different.

You can't always listen to your parents, because it's impossible for them to consider everything from your perspective.

So you have to think from your own perspective and see what kind of life you want."

Wu Mei was also confused after hearing this. "I don't know what kind of life I want. I used to want to go back to the city, thinking that as long as I could go back to the city, it would be fine. But now that I'm back, I don't know what to do in the future."

"I'm not asking you to make a decision right now. After all, you can still put it off. You need to calm down and think about what kind of life you want.

If it really doesn't work, imagine in your mind what kind of life you will have if you are with these two people, and which one you prefer.

Or which of the two do you like better? Consider all aspects."
