In fact, they all know that Manjun's contribution is not just an introduction.
It’s not easy for outsiders to get a foothold in the city. There are so many street vendors. Why can they stay in the city and be okay?
It's all because someone is covering it up.
Now they have opened the restaurant in the demolished area, where there are the most workers. After the houses are built, there will be the most people. There are large shopping malls, large hotels, and dense commercial housing nearby.
Several colleagues around me started fighting after a short time, and then they all closed down.
In the end, they were left alone, not because they were a good couple.
Or because someone is protecting them, the workers and other unscrupulous people don't dare to cause trouble in their stores.
Thinking of this, the couple couldn't help but say thank you to Li Manjun and Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong did not refuse, and said openly: "We are all members of our own family. If we don't help our own family, it's hard to return it to other people's families. That's right."
Dan Niu smiled, stood up and insisted on toasting his brother-in-law.
Zhao Yong did it, and the atmosphere became lively again.
The children were running around the dining table. Those who were old enough to celebrate the New Year had no one to restrain them. Here they asked for a bite of food, and there they asked for a bite of meat. After eating, they would run around twice and finish the food in their mouths.
He ran back and was fed.
The second elder liked this kind of atmosphere the most. Watching it happily, Mrs. Li's face became less mean.
Life has gotten better, there seem to be fewer things to worry about, and people's minds have broadened a lot. In the past two years, they have not cared much about the affairs of the younger generations in the family.
Qian Shufen, the auntie, smiled like Maitreya Buddha. She held her little grandson in her arms, who was twisting to run away with his sisters. She touched his little face lovingly before letting him go.
Li Manjun took a look at a painting hanging in the hall on the first floor of her uncle's house. There were a few words written on it, "Everything goes well with the family."
After finishing the meal, Li Manjun asked Wang Xiaojuan jokingly, "Mom, does grandma still talk about you this year?"
Wang Xiaojuan shook her head, really not.
At first she didn't come back often.
Secondly, Li Dawei traveled to his hometown frequently this year. The old lady was preoccupied with her new house and had no time to lecture her daughter-in-law.
"Lijun, do you have a boyfriend?"
Qian Shufen and her daughter-in-law cleaned up the kitchen and came out with a bowl of home-pickled sour bamboo shoots and put it on the table for everyone to relieve their tiredness.
If you eat too much meat and vegetables during the Chinese New Year, pickled bamboo shoots are easy to resolve.
Li Lijun was watching TV. When Leng Buding heard this, her expression froze.
Everyone in the room was still talking about their own things, and no one seemed to care about her relationship status, but Li Lijun could feel that everyone's eyes were focused on her.
Seeing that Li Lijun didn't say anything, Qian Shufen added: "It's not too late not to talk anymore. You're old enough to have a baby in the country. You should hurry up. The flowering period of girls is short. Don't hurry up and find them before the price drops."
If you marry a good man, you will regret it later."
Wang Xiaojuan didn't like to hear this, "Sister-in-law, according to you, all the people in this city who got married in their thirties are not married well?"
Although she was worried herself and had similar thoughts to her elder sister-in-law, she was only allowed to speak to herself and no one else was allowed to speak.
Li Manjun patted her sister on the shoulder, "Our mother has learned double standards."
Li Lijun knew that if she didn't speak, her aunt and mother would quarrel again, so she smiled and said:
"I'm quite busy with work right now, so I'll look for you when I'm done."
"Then you have to hurry up." Qian Shufen warned.
Li Lijun nodded, but before the topic could be changed, Qian Shufen started gossiping with everyone about who and where the girl in the village was married to, how much the bride price was, and so on.
Wang Xiaojuan is a gossip, and the two of them immediately talked about each other.
Li Lijun suddenly felt sorry for Alexander. She quickly got up and said she had diarrhea, so she went back to the house next door to hide for a while.
At the door, I met several children who blocked the way every year and asked her: "Auntie, what does talking about a boyfriend mean?"
Li Lijun choked, hesitated for a long time, and said, "That's right.
Object."
Every year I still ask: "What is an object?"
"I don't know, ask your mother." Li Lijun crossed the children and ran away because she couldn't afford to offend them.
Nian Nian looked at her cousin Nannan strangely, and Nannan secretly told her: "People who are in love kiss, and kissing will give birth to children."
"Huh?" I am shocked every year.
Nannan warned her: "Don't say it was me who said it."
Nian Nian promised well here. When I went to bed at night, I hid between my parents and asked curiously:
"Dad, Mom, why do people who are in love kiss each other? Does kissing really give birth to children?"
She suddenly remembered that her mother had also kissed her on the mouth, and she immediately said in horror: "Mom, don't kiss me on the mouth again!"
Zhao Yong, who had drunk a lot of wine and was about to fall asleep, was startled by her, "Who kissed you on the mouth? Who is in love?"
Li Manjun sighed helplessly and asked him to continue sleeping and mind his own business.
He held his daughter close to him and asked her in a low voice who heard this.
Nian Nian honestly confessed that it was his cousin who told him.
Li Manjun tapped her nose, "Did my cousin still ask you not to tell anyone?"
Nian Nian glanced at her mother in surprise, looking like how did you know?
Li Manjun didn't say that he shouldn't tell himself anything he promised in the future. Children don't need to keep secrets.
It's really conservative. If something happens, the parents will be scared to death.
Li Manjun saw that the little girl was so curious about what falling in love was like, so he gave her a few examples in a low voice.
Every year I seem to understand something, but when I get the answer, I go to sleep satisfied.
On the contrary, Li Manjun was disturbed by this incident, and his heart kept hanging on.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the family returned to Heather Town after visiting relatives. Li Manjun put his daughter to sleep, left father and daughter alone, went to his sister's room, and got into her bed.
Li Lijun laughed and scolded: "You are going to freeze me to death!"
Li Manjun raised his lips and smiled proudly, and pushed towards her. The two sisters got into a fuss, and it took a while before they got out of the bed, gasping for air.
"Let me ask you." Li Manjun tilted his head and looked at Li Lijun, whose face was flushed. "Are you in love? Do you have a boyfriend who you are embarrassed to say?"
Between the two sisters, no one can hide anything from the other. Li Lijun can lie to everyone, but she dare not lie to her sister.
After all, she is the eldest sister.
"Even so, I haven't confirmed the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend. I'm still considering it."
Li Lijun also added: "You know the other person, he is so much older than me, I always feel that he is not reliable."
"Of course, he has a clean relationship history and a good character. This time my brother-in-law had an accident, he was very concerned about it. I saw it."
"It's just his age... Of course, I'm not saying he is old. He actually looks younger than my brother-in-law."
Li Manjun: How does my Xiao Zhao look old? He is just mature!
Li Lijun smiled flatteringly and continued to struggle: "I don't know if we are really together, how can I explain to the people around me that I am not after his money."
