Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 170 Finding a partner will only affect the speed of making money

Ye Yi quickly pulled back Ye Yi who wanted to pounce on her, and helplessly analyzed with her,

"I haven't found a partner because I went to the countryside to build a new village. You know the situation of us educated youth. It's hard to go back to the city, but we won't be willing to marry in the countryside. Do you think we don't want to find a partner? It's just that there is no suitable person."

Wang Lanlan turned her head and looked at Lin Qingyan again, "Is Ye Yi the reason why you don't find a partner?"

Lin Qingyan nodded, "That's partly the reason."

"What about the other part?"

"Partly, I'm worried that dating will affect the speed at which I make money." Lin Qingyan winked at Wang Lanlan playfully.

Wang Lanlan and Ye Yi were shocked by her words and looked at her in disbelief. They didn't expect Lin Qingyan to be like this.

Lin Qingyan quickly changed the subject, looked at Wang Lanlan and asked her:

"Did your father agree to your mother's plan to find a partner for you? Was it your father who brought this up, or your mother?"

"Is there any difference?" Wang Lanlan was puzzled.

"There is a difference. If it was your mother who brought it up, you could also go to your father and think of a solution." Lin Qingyan gave her advice.

"Ask my dad for help? Will he agree?" Wang Lanlan tilted her head and thought.

"Then it's up to you to talk to him and talk about your ideas. Come on, treat us as your fathers and tell us the reasons why you don't want to find a partner and see if you can convince us."

Ye Yi suddenly became excited and happily gave her some advice.

Upon hearing this, Wang Lanlan immediately rushed towards Ye Yi, "Okay, Ye Yi, I treat you as a good friend, and you actually want to be my father."

The two men immediately fell on the kang and started to wrestle. Lin Qingyan stood by and watched calmly, holding a glass of water and drinking it slowly.

After the two of them had enough fun, Wang Lanlan's spirits were visibly better.

"Thank you for comforting me. I have been quarreling with my mother at home these past two days. This time, she is not soft-hearted at all. It seems that she is determined to find a partner for me and let me get married!"

Wang Lanlan is now talking about these things calmly.

Lin Qingyan comforted her, "I still think you can talk to your father first. It's obvious that your father is the one who makes the decisions in your family. As long as you can convince him, your mother won't be a problem."

"Then what reason should I find to tell my dad?" Wang Lanlan sighed again.

"How about what Qingyan just said, that finding a partner will affect the speed of making money?" Ye Yi suddenly said what Lin Qingyan just said.

The two looked at each other, their eyes becoming brighter and brighter. In this era, if there is a person in the family who can earn money, she will definitely be worshipped. How could they let her marry off easily and become a cheap concubine to another family?

"Yeah? Every time I earn money, I give my mother one dollar every time I come back. She also asks me how much I earn, but I never tell her because I'm afraid she'll take my money away. If I tell her this time, will she take my money away?"

Wang Lanlan was very nervous about her little treasury, and she stared at her two friends to help her find a solution.

"It depends on how you talk to them. I suggest that when you go back, Wang Lanlan, you should first tell your father how much money you have earned in the past few times and see his attitude.

If he is still hesitant, you can discuss with him and ask him to wait for two years before finding a partner for you, so that he can earn more money and give part of it to his family. The specific amount depends on your negotiation.

You can pretend to be aggrieved first and leave more for yourself. This society is not very friendly to women. If women can control their own destiny, they will not be easily bullied in their husband's family.

If you have your own abilities, you will be more confident. I think the village chief uncle and aunt love you very much, otherwise they would not have kept you without finding a partner until you were 20 years old. If you analyze this situation, your father will consider it.

Then talk about your family situation, such as your brother and sister-in-law, and how you can save more of the money you earn so that you can live a good life in the future.

Even if you hand it over, give it to your father. As for whether your father keeps it for himself or gives it to your mother, that is their business. You should first give up the idea of ​​them finding a partner for you."

Lin Qingyan said a lot, and Wang Lanlan asked her thoughtfully: "Why don't you persuade me to find a partner?"

"Why should I advise you? Finding a partner will really affect the speed at which you make money." Lin Qingyan said to her with a smile.

Under Wang Lanlan's gloomy gaze, Lin Qingyan said seriously: "You can find a partner, but it is not recommended to get married so early. Let's earn money for another year or two and leave more options for ourselves."

In fact, Lin Qingyan was thinking that when she could take the college entrance examination next year, Wang Lanlan should also be able to take the college entrance examination together. During this period of time, she was studying with Ye Yi.

Sometimes the three of them would discuss the knowledge points in the textbook together. If Ruyi continued to develop in this way, she would most likely pass the college entrance examination next year.

If Wang Lanlan was admitted to university, her family would definitely not urge her to get married, at least not before she graduated from university. Even the village head's wife would not urge her no matter how anxious she was. After all, by that time, finding a partner would not be on the same level.

"Okay, it's decided. Ye Yi, come on, you play my dad, and we'll act out what we're going to say when we get back. Qing Yan, can you help me see if this is okay?"

Wang Lanlan finally asked Ye Yi to "be" her father. The three of them demonstrated several possible situations together. After they felt the plan was perfect, they went their separate ways.

In the evening, Hu Zi's mother came over carrying two bamboo baskets.

"Xiao Lin, educated youth, do you think these knittings are okay?"

Lin Qingyan looked at the two bamboo baskets in her hands and took out a woven little tiger from one of them. This little tiger was the same as the one she had seen in their home before, and it was even more exquisite in details.

After looking at the tiger, Lin Qingyan looked at the others. This one was a bamboo woven lantern, the shape of which was one of the ones in the picture she printed.

She looked at the other finished products in the bamboo basket. They were all woven according to the pictures she printed, and some looked even better than in the pictures.

Hu Zi's mother kept looking at Lin Qingyan nervously, watching her pick up one after another and look at them carefully, fearing that she would not be satisfied and would not want them anymore.

After Lin Qingyan finished looking at the last finished product, she smiled and said to Hu Zi's mother:

"Aunt, your uncle's craftsmanship is really great. His weaving is better than I thought."

When Hu Zi's mother heard her praise, she heaved a sigh of relief and patted her chest with her hands.

"Hey, Xiaolin Zhiqing, let me take a break."

Lin Qingyan was startled by this sentence, and she hurriedly supported her and asked, "What's wrong, aunt? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Hu Zi's mother took a few deep breaths before she calmed down. Looking at Lin Qingyan who was nervous and concerned about her, tears suddenly flowed down her face.
