Are you thinking about getting married now?

I’m only in the first grade of junior high school, shouldn’t you at least wait until I finish junior high school?”

“Who said I was marrying you?

If I stop going to school, I’ll be nearly 19 years old, and my family will certainly urge me to get married as soon as possible.

You, on the other hand, remain perpetually young, do you think they would approve?”

“Weren’t you supposed to go to college?

Why are you talking about marriage now?” Yan Fei asked, puzzled.

“Sigh…

I’m not even good at cooking, I don’t even know what kind of in-laws I could gain,” She rambles incoherently without answering him.

“Find yourself a ****!

Have you lost your mind?

What will you do if you don’t go to school?” Yan Fei looked at her talking in a tormented spirit, he was a bit baffled.

“Go to college?

If you could go to college, who wouldn’t want to!

I don’t think there’s any hope for me now!”

“What’s wrong with you?” With a dejected expression, Xu Xiaoyan still nibbles on a piece of meat, leaving Yan Fei at a loss for words.

“There’s nothing wrong with me.

In any case, my family told me that since the opening of the new shopping mall next door, our family business has been doing very badly.

My eldest sister is still studying for her postgraduate degree, my second sister is also at university.

If I go to college too, there will be no tuition fees left,” Xu Xiaoyan replied listlessly, and then raising her head to glance at him, she gnawed fiercely at the bone: “It’s all because you, a brat, doesn’t grow up.

I’ll crush you, crush you…”

“Your eldest sister is at college, your second sister is at college, why is your family so biased?

By the way, what’s a postgraduate?

Can you still study further after college?” Yan Fei was perplexed.

Those two parents next door must be out of their minds!

Who doesn’t let their daughters go to college these days?

“You don’t understand!

There’s a big shopping mall nearby now, its products are better and more abundant than ours, and they can sell cheaper due to their larger order volumes.

Our store can hardly do any business.

Across the road is the big shopping mall, who would come to our store to buy things?

Haven’t you noticed that our store is empty every day?” Xu Xiaoyan explained to Yan Fei.

“They can’t help it if they can’t make money.

They can’t just let my older sisters drop out halfway, right?

What’s a postgraduate?

There’s still a doctoral student and a postdoc!”

“Hey, I thought you got expelled from school because you didn’t study well!

Isn’t it just about money?

Just concentrate on your studies, why worry about this!

Is there something beyond a postdoc?

Doctor Emperor?

Wouldn’t that mean studying until you’re old and grey?” Yan Fei finally understood the reason and immediately felt relieved.

“You don’t know shit.” Seeing his nonchalant attitude, she became so angry she swore.

“Doctor Emperor?

Do you think college is easy to get through in four years and doesn’t require money for food and clothing.

Forget it, you wouldn’t understand if I told you.

Unless I could be like that Ni from Grass Village who found a wealthy family to support her studies.

But she only went to a technical secondary school, whereas I’m aiming for college, the expenses are not the same…”

“Xu Xiaoyan, I now understand, you come here every day just to scrounge some food, right?

You’re supposed to be my wife, and you’re thinking about other families?”

The Ni from Grass Village that Xu Xiaoyan mentioned finished middle school last year and probably went to Normal University or a technical secondary school.

Yan Fei just heard it from others; the details were not very clear.

They also had a fine for exceeding the birth quota because of their younger son who was still in school they couldn’t afford to send two people to school, so they betrothed this girl who would marry whoever paid for her studies after graduation.

A family in the same village took up the offer, and through mutual discussions between the two families, they held a feast to announce that the young people from both families had an arranged marriage, the future in-laws would support her education, and they would get married when she graduated and returned.

Freedom to choose in love is nothing when you can’t even guarantee a meal.

Besides, the young man from that family was also a middle school graduate who was not a bad person, so both were satisfied and the matter was settled.

As for the other details, Yan Fei didn’t know.

Xu Xiaoyan must still be quite envious of that girl because she had people to support her studies, and her in-laws were from the same village, which was pretty good.

“Yan Xiaofei, you’re just talking without facing the difficulties.

I’ve studied for so many years already, if I can’t go to college, wouldn’t it all be in vain?

It would be better to go to a Normal University, I would have been assigned a teaching job by now!” Xu Xiaoyan said in frustration, and as she spoke, she started crying again.

“You’re so young, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you.

Do you think getting married is as simple as you think?

Don’t you realize that you’re still just a child?”

“So, in your eyes, I’m just a kid, huh?” Yan Fei was suddenly struck to the core.

Every weekend when he delivered food to Xu Xiaoyan’s school, there would always be a few crazy girls joining in, and he would always vaguely hear comments like ‘he’s just too young.’ Hearing that too many times annoyed him.

“Pfft, you’re just a kid anyway.

Sigh, once I stop going to school, there won’t be many good days left for me…” The girl was so discouraged that she had no tears left, and sat in silence, just eating.

“Deservedly so…

you better hurry up and find a family that can afford your college tuition!” Yan Fei continued to tease her as he watched her still manage to eat.

“You think it’s easy to find?

Besides, their children just have to go to Normal University, study for three years, and then come back to be a teacher.

But for me, it’s four years, and I am older, who knows how I’ll turn out to be, there won’t be anyone willing.”

That’s true, the timeframe for Normal University is shorter, and the schools are usually in counties or cities close to home, so families can worry less.

After three years of nurturing, their children reach the marriageable age and it’s perfect timing for them to return and get married.

College, on the other hand, would be further away.

The further the distance, the less control parents would have.

What if their children decide not to return after all?

No one wants their investments to go to waste.

Another reason is that Xu Xiaoyan’s parents aren’t exactly popular.

Even if there were families with such intentions, they probably wouldn’t trust them.

“Why don’t you also go to a three-year college?” Yan Fei, unaware of how much Xu Xiaoyan had been contemplating, suggested a lousy idea.

“Are you clueless?

The three-year term refers to College, whereas in my case, any decent undergraduate program would take four years, four years…” Xu Xiaoyan blew up in anger, and throw the half-eaten bone at him.

“Whatever…

either way, you can’t afford it.

You’ll have to get married sooner or later, why not come back as soon as you stop going to school, marry me first, and you can cook for me while I go to school.”

“So what if I can’t afford it, wouldn’t that be a big deal…

Yan Xiaofei, you’re really cruel, aren’t you afraid I’ll poison your food?” Xu Xiaoyan was bewildered with rage.

“I’m not afraid!” Yan Fei was incredibly calm.

“Well then…

I won’t argue with you.

Anyway, I won’t be able to go to college, and I’m not ashamed of it.

If you dare to talk to your parents about it, and if they agree, I’ll cook for you.

You better start preparing the bride price immediately.

Our family will definitely ask for a lot.” Xu Xiaoyan calmed down after venting, “By the way, both of your parents work, they must have money, right?

Do you think they would let me go to college?”

“What now?

You want to be my wife again?”

“Hehe, actually even if I can’t go to school, it wouldn’t be too bad to eat with you every day.

Besides, you are still young, I don’t want to get married and start looking after a child so soon, but I wouldn’t mind cooking for you, it’s easier.” This girl started talking nonsense, and she cast suspicious glances at Yan Fei up and down.

“So just because I’m young everythings fine?

What’s up with that look?” Yan Fei, who had been raised by his grandfather since he was a boy, didn’t really understand the girl’s words.

“Sigh…

I’m much older than you, and your family certainly wouldn’t accept me.

Education still costs money, and both you and your younger brother are studying, I guess I have no hope…” Xu Xiaoyan kept mumbling to herself and seemed deflated again.

“You’re just a nutcase!” Yan Fei was confused by the girl’s alternating expressions of joy and sorrow, and didn’t know what to say.

“Yeah, I wish I were a nutcase.

Then, I wouldn’t have to go to school, nobody would bother me, and I wouldn’t be bothered about anything.

Wouldn’t that be nice?” The girl started to weep again as she spoke.

“Okay okay, so going to school makes you miserable.

You just wait and be my wife, and when I have enough money, I’ll reopen my family’s blacksmith shop, and all you need to do is to cook for me and operate the bellows.” Yan Fei had plans in his mind, but he would not share them with her.
