Chapter 1060 Worry (2)
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the place where Zhao Junhao worked. After Zhou Mingxuan said something to him, he planned to continue walking down to where he worked.
Seeing Zhou Mingxuan preparing to leave, Zhao Junhao suddenly had an idea and remembered something.
He immediately stopped Zhou Mingxuan who was about to leave, "Mingxuan, don't leave yet. I suddenly remembered something."
"What's the matter?" Zhou Mingxuan stopped and turned to look at him.
Zhao Junhao looked at the villagers working not far away, walked a few steps to Zhou Mingxuan, pulled him aside and asked in a low voice,
"Mingxuan, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu have returned to the army. Do you think they will find a way to get Xiaoxue away after they return?"
Zhou Mingxuan was stunned. He had never thought about this before.
After Zhao Junhao's reminder, he thought for a while and said, "It's very likely.
You also saw it just now. Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were worried about Xiaoxue staying here, and they gave her many warnings and instructions.
They might be thinking of bringing Xiaoxue to their side to take care of her."
Zhao Junhao kept an eye on Zhou Mingxuan's expression and spoke carefully.
"If Xiaoxue leaves, what will you do?
If you want to pursue her while she is here, you can also take advantage of the geographical location.
But if she leaves, you won't even have this advantage."
Although Zhou Mingxuan's expression gradually became a little ugly, Zhao Junhao still did not stop.
As a good brother, he naturally has to help his good brother see the problem clearly.
"Xiaoxue's skills can indeed scare off many suitors.
But she is not the kind of person who would resort to violence at every turn. If it is not necessary, she will not show off her skills.
Judging from her looks and temperament, I have to say, she is quite likable.
There is also Uncle Liu's identity. He had been a division commander for so many years before he was sent down. It is said that when he was about to be promoted, he was framed by others, so he had to take the initiative to be sent down to protect himself.
Everything has been investigated clearly, and I will definitely be promoted when I return this time.
Then his identity is not ordinary.
Xiaoxue is his niece, and she is so outstanding and has the bonus of status, so she has become a hot commodity.
If Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu bring her to their side, given the character of those people in the army, you will have many more competitors, just think about it."
Although Zhao Junhao should have stopped talking when he saw Zhou Mingxuan's face becoming increasingly gloomy, he still spoke out.
"By then, they will have the geographical advantage. What are you going to do?"
"You can't possibly go and serve as a soldier there, right?
Not to mention that you don't like being in the army, there is also the question of whether you can be assigned there.
If you join the army, you can only start as a private. At your age, you can't compete with others.
Is it possible to compete with family background?"
Zhao Junhao looked at Zhou Mingxuan with some sympathy.
“But Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, and Xiaoxue are not superficial people.
Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu have known about your feelings for Xiaoxue for a long time, but have they ever expressed anything?
If they were interested in your family background, they would have brought you together with Xiaoxue a long time ago.
But they didn't. Whether it was Grandpa Zou, Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, or even Grandpa Wu, they all warned you not to bully or force Xiaoxue.
So your family background is of no use to them, and may even be a demerit."
After hearing these heart-wrenching words from his brother, Zhou Mingxuan even spoke with gritted teeth.
"You don't think highly of me?"
"This is not a question of whether or not to look at it favorably." Zhao Junhao spread his hands helplessly, "But the facts are right in front of us.
If Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were still here, and Xiaoxue was here too, among the people they can contact now, you would be considered to be in good condition as the tallest among the short ones.
But once they return to the army, there are so many outstanding young people in the army."
Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao didn't know that the criteria that Liu's grandmother and Wang Xiulan had set for Liu Jingxue in terms of a partner were not to marry a soldier or a military wife, so they said this.
"By then, you will be an educated youth sent to the countryside, with an unsuccessful career. Your only advantage is your good family background."
The more Zhao Junhao spoke, the more he felt that it would be difficult for his brother to pursue his wife.
Looking at his brother who was devastated by his words, he patted his shoulder.
"You should think carefully about whether you want to continue to like Xiaoxue.
There are many better flowers in the world, so why should you love only one flower?
Besides, whether this flower will end up in your home is too uncertain. "
Zhao Junhao has never understood why Zhou Mingxuan, who has never been interested in women, would like Liu Jingxue.
He admitted that Liu Jingxue was very beautiful and capable, but her abilities were too great for most men to control, not even his good brother Zhou Mingxuan.
Then why did Zhou Mingxuan fall in love with her?
As a good brother, he still hopes that Zhou Mingxuan will not be stubborn and stick to one path to the end.
After hearing Zhao Junhao's words, Zhou Mingxuan realized that his road to pursuing his wife was bumpy. Later, he returned to the fields and was a little absent-minded when working.
Fortunately, there was not much work left to begin with, and although my speed was much slower after I came back, I managed to finish today's work before the villagers usually got off work.
Zhao Junhao, on the other hand, was not affected at all and finished his work early.
As for Liu Jingxue, she was worried that her uncle and aunt would leave and Grandpa Wu would be the only one left in the cowshed, and she was afraid that he would feel a little uncomfortable.
She specially prepared some extra dinner and planned to eat with Grandpa Wu.
Considering that Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao would most likely come to accompany the old man, she simply brought them along as well.
Not long after Liu Jingxue brought food to the cowshed, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao also came quietly from the mountain with food.
Looking at the young people in front of him, Old Wu smiled happily, "It's amazing that you still want to come and accompany an old man like me."
After they had their meal, they chatted with the old man for a while before he urged them to leave.
Worried that Mr. Wu would be too lonely here alone, Zhou Mingxuan said to Zhao Junhao,
"Haozi, you go back first. I'll sleep here tonight."
Old Wu waved his hand and said, “Mingxuan, you don’t have to stay here with me, Grandpa is fine staying alone.
It would be bad if you stayed here overnight and were seen by others."
“No one will come here at night, and no one will see it.
At worst, I can get up early tomorrow and sneak back quietly." Zhou Mingxuan retorted.
"Grandpa, please let me stay here tonight.
I am staying here not only to accompany you, but also to discuss something with you."
Zhou Mingxuan had discussed with Zhao Junhao before coming that he would stay here overnight.
Seeing that his grandson had something to discuss with him, Mr. Wu no longer insisted on sending him away.
After Liu Jingxue and Zhao Junhao left, Zhou Mingxuan closed the gate. After washing up, the father and son lay on the kang and talked.
No one knew what the grandfather and grandson said to each other, but afterwards Zhou Mingxuan returned to his previous energetic self.
When Zhao Junhao tried to persuade him again to give up his thoughts about Liu Jingxue, he was rejected.
Of course, this is a story.
