Chapter 17 Section 17

After eating dumplings on the morning of National Day, the family divided into three groups: Lingling went to the school to participate in the performance; Needless to say, Lu Ruohua loves his sister dearly in his heart.Since the death of his parents, apart from Lingling in this world, she is the only relative who is related to him by blood. After his mother passed away, he couldn't bear to leave his younger sister who was under 20 years old alone in his hometown, so he brought her to him.He was always ready to help her with his strong hand. He will create conditions for her, encourage her to review her homework, and try to get into a good university.He wanted them both to be respectable people in their lives.He could see that Ruoqin was a very promising girl, intelligent, precocious, and very assertive in situations. Although she was not yet twenty years old, she was quite independent in daily life.He believes that the only thing lacking is that he is not deeply involved in the world and does not understand the complexity of life.

Generally speaking, Lu Ruohua likes the independence of his younger sister very much, because he himself left his parents in his teens and made his way in society alone. However, he felt that her consciousness was too strong, even a little too much.He was quite dissatisfied with his sister's attitude towards his marriage with Liying.Normally speaking, no matter what, she should always stand by his side and think about her brother.But she took a critical attitude toward this important event in his life, and it made him very unhappy.What's more, she actually stood on Gao Guanghou's side to comment on this matter.

It seemed that she had a very stubborn opinion on the matter, as if defending some sacred principle. Lu Ruohua couldn't help feeling sorry for his sister: Poor child!You haven't really started living in this world yet!When you really know the real face of the world, your view of the problem will be closer to reality! Yes, he has also passed through the years, and like her, he has insisted on some principles of right and wrong, and then gradually realized that such a philosophy of life cannot be tolerated in this world.Later, when he went to society, he corrected his stubbornness.If the younger sister continues like this, she will have to run into trouble in society!Besides, love, can you tell clearly what is right and wrong here?

It seems that people have to go through a process to mature—he thought deeply.From this point of view, no matter how his sister attacks him as "immoral" in marrying Liying, he also magnanimously forgives her, because she has not yet gone through that "process".Besides, she was his own sister. In the past month, he has been thinking about her not coming home in a fit of anger.But he knew it was not easy to rush to convince her, just as it was not easy for her to convince him.He thought about it for a while.So for more than a month, he didn't take the initiative to contact her, and he didn't send a message to ask her to come back.

Ever since he heard the wind saying that his sister and Gao Guanghou were a bit "numb", his heart just "thumped"! He panicked all of a sudden: why didn't he think of this terrible question?Of course, he thought it might not be true.But after all, it has had an impact.How disgraceful it would be to him in the county!And what's even more sour is that people will laugh at him that Lu Ruohua traded his younger sister for a wife!After hearing this rumor, he felt extremely uncomfortable like a mosquito on his back.He thought sensitively: Maybe this matter has spread among the cultural and educational system or among the cadres in the county!This is really "a wise man who thinks a lot will make mistakes"!

He decided to talk to his sister soon, mainly to tell her to change schools as soon as possible.Therefore, two days ago Liying wanted to ask Ruoqin to bring her son to celebrate the festival, but he did not object.He didn't care about how Liying missed her son, but he wanted to take this opportunity to have a good talk with Ruoqin... Now the two brothers and sisters are walking on a small dirt road outside the city, chatting about some homely things.The autumn sun shines on the colorful fields.The sky is blue and high, clean and clear, not even a trace of cloud can be seen.In the fields on the outskirts of the city, the crops and vegetation began to turn yellow.The leaves of some trees had been beaten deep red by the early frost, and they looked like burning flames in the sun.

"Ruoqin, can I change the school for you? Wuliwan Primary School is actually on the edge of the city. Sniff, it's there!" Lu Ruohua suddenly changed the subject, pointing at a village not far away with his slender fingers. "I have already told you that I will teach at Gaomiao. I am already familiar with it..." Lu Ruoqin took a few red pear leaves in her hand and rubbed them lightly with her fingers. "I hope you can listen to my brother, I'm all for your own good..." "Isn't it the same everywhere? Anyway, it's teaching!" "Alas!" Lu Ruohua sighed, hesitated for a long time before hesitating, "The atmosphere in this society is really stupid now! You can kill people with a soft knife..."

"What do you mean by that?" Lu Ruoqin stopped in her tracks and asked her brother. Lu Ruohua was silent for a long time, then turned his head, looked at the opposite mountain, and said, "Someone spread the news about you and Gao Guanghou..." Lu Ruoqin bit her lips with her teeth, and tears swirled in her eyes.She also turned her head to the other side, and said, "I never thought that these rumors would spread to the city..." She suddenly turned her head and asked her brother excitedly, "Do you believe these bad words too?" Lu Ruohua turned his face and said, "It's not that I don't know you! I also know Gao Guanghou! He's an honest man! Besides, he's ten years older than you! But he's sure to pull out the tongues of these rumormongers." Ruoqin, you should listen to me and change to another school! Or, stop teaching at all, just stop in the city and review your homework!"

"I don't want to eat in vain!" She rolled her lips. "Then you go to Wuliwan to teach!" "I don't!" She said earnestly, "If I change schools, from the eyes of everyone, it seems that Lao Gao and I really have something inexplicable." "Ruoqin! Please be considerate and considerate of me! I have reached a critical moment now, and the county party committee is preparing to promote me! You can save me some face, and don't let me worry about these things anymore!" Lu Ruohua said painfully Spreading his arms and grinning, he almost went to his sister and begged.

Lu Ruoqin was not moved by his pitiful look. She looked at him and said, "You are always thinking of you! It seems that you are doing it for my own good, but actually it is for your own good..." She A little mean. "For both of us!" he corrected. "Then you don't even think about it, how is Gao Guanghou now? He is pitifully dead now! Doesn't this have anything to do with you?" "Where did it go! Can you stop mentioning that?" Lu Ruohua was a little annoyed. Lu Ruoqin turned around angrily and walked back, she was not going to continue walking.

Ruohua hurriedly turned around and rushed forward, saying, "You will always be a child! Don't just leave without saying hello like last time... You should go after the festival no matter what..." It seems The subject of the conversation today is that it cannot go any further.Lu Ruoqin slowed down and said, "I won't leave today. But I have to go back tomorrow..." "Tomorrow is Sunday!" "I have to go back on Sunday too," she said. "why?" "Tomorrow night, our school will hold a cultural performance, and the villagers nearby will also go to see it." She continued, "Can you borrow an accordion for me at the county cultural center? You know me well! If you can, I can borrow it tomorrow." Ask the folks who went to the market to take it back. I have to lead soldiers tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to get it..." "Okay..." he said helplessly, "Then let's talk about those things just now." Lu Ruoqin became impatient: "Brother! Don't talk about those boring things anymore, can you? I'm so annoying!" Lu Ruohua sighed and said, "Then let's go back..." The two brothers and sisters followed each other silently and went to the county cultural center.
