Chapter 298 Shock

“Yes, Pei-chuan’s parents said to hold it here first, and then hold another one at their place.”

"Wow, there are two events? That's great, we can all participate."

"Uncles, aunts, and uncles, please come!" Little Peach Blossom invited with a smile.

"I'll definitely go, I'll definitely go."

"Oh my, in the blink of an eye, Little Peach Blossom has grown up and is even talking about marriage. I remember when she was just this little."

"Yes, not just Little Peach Blossom, every child around here is one of them. Little Peach Blossom is considered late in coming."

"But it's good that we're relieved to see that Xiao Taohua has found such an excellent partner."

"Is his name Xiao Peichuan? He has a nice name and is good-looking. He's a good match for our Little Peach Blossom."

"Exactly, he looks different from other young men."

This was the first time Xiao Peichuan had been surrounded by so many onlookers commenting on him. The key was that all these people were praising him and didn't give him any other strange looks. Even though he was usually calm, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Taohua. Xiao Taohua, on the other hand, was very happy with her eyes narrowed and a bright smile on her face. She would occasionally chime in with a word or two.

Xiao Peichuan: ...

Okay, I already knew my girlfriend liked it when people praised her, and besides, these people were all well-intentioned.

It can only be said that his own resilience is not good enough, and he needs to practice more.

However, he also understood to some extent how his partner's personality was formed. With so many people praising you all the time, you might end up developing the same personality as his partner no matter what.

That's fine.

"Stop crowding around Pei Chuan, you're scaring him," an older woman joked with a laugh.

"It's alright, Auntie is right, I'm listening to everything," Xiao Peichuan said.

"Look, Pei-chuan is much more polite."

"That's right, that's right, Little Peach Blossom always has good taste."

Just then, Li Zhen walked over with Xiao Xuening. An older woman spotted him immediately and called out, "By the way, Li Zhen, what's the capital like? And what are the universities like? Guang Sheng and the others told us when they came back, but we still want to hear more."

"Yes, yes, tell us quickly."

"Yes, tell me about it."

Of course, some people also noticed Xiao Xuening beside Li Zhen. She was quite pretty, though not as pretty as Xiao Taohua, but perhaps she was the younger sister who had come with Xiao Peichuan. Everyone thought they'd ask her later; right now, the important thing was to ask about the situation in the capital.

Li Zhen wasn't intimidated. When asked questions, he confidently stepped forward and even coughed, saying, "The capital is huge. There are more skyscrapers here, and people dress more elegantly. The young people are also more energetic. After all, it's a big city, so it's different from ours..."

As Li Zhen narrated, gasps of surprise came in waves, and in the end, everyone was still eager for more.

“Young people always speak better; we didn’t quite understand what Guang Sheng said last time.”

"Yeah, just some tourist attractions and stuff. I know the capital has tourist attractions, but not as many as Li Zhen described. It feels like I'm going on a trip with them."

"That's right, young people are quick-witted. I think it's always right to listen to young people. The future belongs to the young people, and we old guys are outdated."

"Yes, we should listen to the younger generation. My child is going to the south soon; I heard it's a good place to do business."

“My family’s car is going to the capital.”

"My family says they want to go to Shanghai."

"No, didn't we all say we were going to the capital?"

"Yes, but the kids said they went out and asked around, and there are opportunities all over the country. It just depends on whether we can seize them. Since there are opportunities, let's go out and explore. In the future, people from our production team will know people all over the country."

"Wow, that's ambitious!" Everyone gave a thumbs up.

Li Zhen and the others were confused, but they finally realized what was going on: "You all want to go out and explore?" This was no longer just shock, but utter horror.

Goodness, in just six months since he left, the whole production team feels different.

He almost blurted out "Damn it!" but thankfully he held it in.

"Yes, haven't you heard? A lot of people in our production team have resigned. Some left early, and most of those who stayed are here to attend Xiao Taohua's wedding."

"Resigned?" Li Zhen found the term unfamiliar. "You all resigned too?"

These people used to pull strings and use every trick in the book to get into the factory, and now they've resigned?

Are they lying to him or joking?

"Yes, Guang Sheng and his wife also resigned. They're planning to go to the capital with Xiao Tao Hua. Sigh, my child wants to go to Shanghai, but I don't know when we'll be able to meet. I miss them so much now."

“It’s okay, we come back every year for Chinese New Year anyway, we just go out to work.”

"Yes, yes, that makes sense."

Li Zhen and his group: ...

Perhaps they were too detached from the production team, and always felt that the people in the production team were somewhat arrogant?

"Oh, let's not talk about these things anymore. Is this Pei-chuan's sister? She's really pretty. Does she have a boyfriend? If you ask me, there are quite a few outstanding young men in our production team, like Li Zhen, Song Yi, Xiao Guang, and so on."

Xiao Xuening: "Auntie, I think Li Zhen is pretty good."

Well……

The auntie was just making a casual remark.

There was a moment of silence.

However, this was no challenge for the socially adept auntie. She slapped her thigh and excitedly stood up, exclaiming, "Oh dear, Li Zhen, when did you get a boyfriend? Why didn't you tell us? We've been keeping you waiting for so long! Look at you, what kind of boyfriend are you! No, I have to tell Tieguai Li right away, he'll be overjoyed!" She turned to leave, but then spotted Tieguai Li outside the crowd. Great! She immediately shouted excitedly, "Tieguai Li, your Li Zhen is finally getting married! You'll be holding your grandson soon!"

Tieguai Li naturally heard what Xiao Xuening had just said. The aunt was excited, and he was no less so; you can see he was standing outside the crowd, unable to move.

Li Zhen: ...

No, that's not how it works.

He wanted to explain, but Tieguai Li wouldn't give him a chance to explain. The girl didn't even care, so what was the point of his grandson explaining? "Alright, alright, girl, you're a good girl. Li Zhen is good enough for you. Li Zhen is marrying above his station."

"No, Li Zhen is very good."

When Tieguai Li heard the girl praising his grandson, his eyes reddened: "Good, good, Li Zhen, you should take the girl around properly, but you can't bully her!"

Li Zhen: ...

"Also, since you're dating this girl, you can't do anything to betray her, and you certainly can't ruin her reputation!"

"grandfather……"

"Alright, I understand. I'll go home and get ready. You can all come back for dinner later." With that, Tieguai Li made his escape.

Who knows his grandson best? Of course, it's Tieguai Li, the grandfather!
