After dinner, Pei Yue asked if he had chosen a date for the engagement.
With a smile on her lips, Li Guihua said: "I have chosen two dates, one is July 16th and the other is August 20th. Which of the two days do you choose?"
Pei Yue didn't dare to make the decision on such a big matter alone: "I'll ask Tian Shao when I get back, and then I'll send a telegram back.
Li Guihua hesitated for a moment and then asked: "When we get engaged, will your father come over?"
Pei Yue used to find these housework matters unspeakable, but now he thinks it's nothing. "The eldest brother of the woman my father married later was fired from the factory, and now he is racking his brains to find a job for his nephew. My father asked me to give him a job."
The woman's nephew arranged a job, but I didn't agree. If I told him about the engagement, he would definitely threaten me."
Li Guihua was shocked: "What did you say?"
She knew that Pei Yue had two younger brothers and one younger brother. If Pei Xuehai asked him to arrange jobs for his younger siblings, although she felt biased, it was understandable. After all, it was the eldest son's responsibility to help his younger siblings if he was promising. But forcing his son to give to the younger siblings
My wife's nephew arranged a job, which subverted her outlook on life.
Tian Dalin also found it strange and asked, "Xiao Pei, is there any misunderstanding here?"
Pei Yue sneered and said: "He mentioned it in front of me, so there will be no misunderstanding. Uncle, aunt, after my father married that woman, he arranged for his two brothers who could not read each other to enter the factory.
.I could have been promoted to factory director, but I stopped being deputy director because I was dragged down.”
Li Guihua didn't even know what her expression was like. There were many young men who married after partiality, but the impact on the future of the future wife's family was pitiful. When encountering such a confused ghost father, Xiao Pei was really pitiful.
Tian Dalin said: "Don't you and your mother have any relatives?"
"My father also has cousins, but they are all in his hometown. His hometown is more than a thousand miles away from here. And they are very unfamiliar since they haven't moved around for many years."
Li Guihua was a little worried. She could ask Director Li's parents or a close elder to do the engagement instead, but she felt bad that Pei Yue didn't have any relatives when she got married.
The older generation always believes that a marriage will be happy only if it has the blessings of family and friends.
When she went to bed at night, she told Tian Dalin her thoughts. Li Guihua said with some worry: "Xiao Pei is like this. If anything happens in the future, there won't even be anyone to help him."
Tian Dalin didn't worry about this at all. He said: "You see, he and Zhao Kang are not brothers, but they are better than brothers. In addition to Zhao Kang, I believe he has other comrades."
"Can this comrade be compared with a real brother?"
Tian Dalin said: "Sometimes a real brother is not as reliable as a comrade-in-arms. Besides, you have forgotten what Daya said. His leader treats Xiao Pei as his own son."
Considering Tian Shao's domineering temperament, it's a good thing that he doesn't have any relatives, as there won't be any conflicts.
Early the next morning, Li Guihua went to the vegetable market again. When she saw Nie Suozhu, she said: "Suozhu, Xiao Pei is on a business trip. After finishing his work, he came over to visit me and your father. Suozhu, from now on I will help you collect the vegetables.
I can’t help you sell anymore.”
The words were vague, but she believed Nie Suozhu could understand.
Nie Suozhu did understand. He said with a guilty look on his face: "Father, mother, it's all my fault for making you suffer."
At first, when Tian Dalin and Li Guihua offered to help him collect and sell vegetables, Nie Suozhu refused. My sister-in-law is so capable, and her father-in-law and mother-in-law would definitely be angry if she knew that she had to get up early and in the dark to help him sell vegetables. Unfortunately, he couldn't persuade Li Guihua to agree.
Later I found out that it was Erya's idea and she didn't want him to work so hard.
Li Guihua said with a smile: "This has nothing to do with you. I just have to help you sell vegetables when I have nothing to do. Well, it's good that you know this. I won't come tomorrow."
Although she talks about being powerful, Li Guihua is actually a little afraid of Tian Shao, especially when she ignores people with a straight face. Now that she knows that she must not do it. Alas, thinking about her income of 20 yuan a month.
She was in quite a bit of pain when she flew away.
After delivering the vegetables, Nie Suozhu went to the house on Huishan Street. When he saw Pei Yue chopping firewood there, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother-in-law, leave this job to me. I'm familiar with it."
Pei Yue smiled and said: "No need, it will be done soon."
Liuya saw them and secretly said to Siya and Wuya: "Fourth sister, fifth sister, when you look for a partner in the future, you should look for someone like the eldest brother-in-law, who is good-looking, earns a lot of money, and is diligent. Unlike those men in the village who have no ability to pay back the debt."
If you beat your wife, you don’t like your daughter.”
She despises some people and bad habits in the village. But Liuya is also learning to hide her emotions now, and even if she doesn't like it, she tries not to show it.
Si Ya said sincerely: "Sixth sister, if I look for someone like me according to the standards of a eldest brother-in-law, then I will never be able to get married in this life."
Although she is not bad looking, she is far from her eldest sister. Of course, the most important thing is that she is not as capable as her eldest sister. She can still earn so much money after going to college. She has no advantages and has a very big appetite.
Wuya blushed and said: "Sixth sister, what are you talking about? We are only ten years old, it's still early to talk about this!"
Liuya just reminded them, don't be like the second sister who thinks that just looking good is enough and has no pursuit at all.
After breakfast, Pei Yue gave Li Guihua a hundred yuan and said, "Aunt, Xiao Shao and I are the ones who make money. Just take good care of your health."
Li Guihua didn't accept his money and said, "Xiao Shao gave us the money in six months. It's just that I can't sit still. I just happened to be busy at Suozhu, so I helped out for a few days."
Pei Yue still put the money into Li Guihua's hand and said, "What Xiao Shao gave her was earned by herself, and this is my heart. Aunt, take it!"
Seeing that they kept pushing and shoving, Tian Dalin asked to collect the money. They didn't want Pei Yue's money either. The hundred yuan would just be used back at the engagement banquet.
Pei Yue told the two of them to take care of themselves and left with their bags. Instead of taking a car, he went to the Public Security Bureau to find Zhao Kang.
When Zhao Kang saw him, he immediately closed the office and said in a low voice: "Pei Yue, is Xiaotian okay? Gu Fei was arrested by people from the province and was taken away that night."
After learning that Gu Fei had been arrested, he was extremely worried. He called Pei Yue but was told that he was on a business trip again. In the past few days, he was extremely worried for fear that Pei Yue would be implicated.
"It's been sentenced to six years," Pei Yue said. The last time the criminal gang was caught, Gu Fei escaped, but he didn't expect that he would end up on You Yong. Maybe he couldn't get around this prison sentence.
Zhao Kang was startled and lowered his voice and asked, "What about Xiaotian?"
Pei Yue asked, "What does this matter have to do with Xiao Shao? Xiao Shao is a good, law-abiding citizen. How could he be involved in such a dangerous thing as speculation?"
Zhao Kang felt that he was telling lies: "You really don't know, or you are pretending not to know."
"Why are you pretending not to know? It's nothing."
