Li Xu traveled to the year 1960. In this era, which he had never seen before and only heard about in books and from elders, the only thing he could do was ensure his family had enough to eat and li...
What Xiao Jianping said is no different from speaking directly.
And he was not worried at all that Li Xu would spread the news.
This is because this matter is known to everyone in the supply and marketing cooperative.
But in fact, due to the nature of their work, all supply and marketing personnel are gossipers.
This applies to both men and women.
But the degree of their chatter varies...
So Li Xu shook his head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. After all, he is your elder. It would be bad if others knew about it. Just now, I heard you imply that Lao Su was here. Have you ever thought about where he got the information?"
Although the news Li Xu knew did come from Su Weidong's mother.
But Xiao Jianping's mother may have said the same thing.
Otherwise, how could Su Weidong know about his injury?
Xiao Jianping was stunned at first, then he refuted, "My mother only told me about my fracture, but she couldn't have given me such detailed information."
Li Xu spread his hands and said, "If you can explain it in such detail, why can't Auntie?"
This sentence completely silenced Xiao Jianping.
Li Xu was also silent.
Because he confirmed his guess.
I don’t know why Xiao’s mother told this matter to others.
Now many people think that Xiao Jianping is mentally ill and it may be difficult for him to find a partner in the future.
Isn't this a complete pitfall...
After a moment, Li Xu said, "Don't think too much about it. It's not a big deal anyway. Just tell me about it."
What Xiao Jianping said must not be a big deal, otherwise his parents would not let him go so easily.
This is also the reason why Li Xu dared to ask directly.
"I can't say."
Xiao Jianping shook his head, and the words that came out of his mouth made Li Xu feel extremely cold.
Li Xu widened his eyes and looked at him in disbelief, "Old Xiao, that's not what you just said."
"That's what I just said."
"Huh?" Li Xu was stunned.
Then he quickly realized, "Is the matter I'm asking also related to your family secret?"
"They are not related, they are basically the same thing." Xiao Jianping said helplessly.
Li Xu: ...
"Does Lao Su know this secret?"
"Don't even mention him. Even his parents don't know."
"It seems to be a secret indeed." Li Xu responded casually, then picked up the water glass and sipped it slowly.
At this moment, his brain was working at high speed.
Xiao Jianping's parents want him to go on a blind date with Li Mei.
But he was not happy about it and told their family secret.
This means that this secret is most likely related to finding a partner.
He told this secret, which made his parents very angry, but not too angry.
Is it because the interval is too long, or is it because the secret is not as important as imagined?
Or maybe both?
His grandmother even developed a bad habit of eavesdropping because of this secret.
Don't eavesdrop on others, just eavesdrop on whether they are doing things honestly.
Putting things together, Li Xu suddenly had an idea.
Putting the water cup on the table, Li Xu whispered, "Old Xiao, I may have guessed your family's secret."
"Impossible." Xiao Jianping responded decisively.
He felt that since he hadn't revealed anything, there was no way Li Xu could guess it.
Li Xu smiled. "You were able to tell Old Su about the beating you received in such detail, and it even touched on your family's secret. This shows that you don't take it seriously at all. It also shows that this secret is actually not important, right?"
Xiao Jianping's expression changed instantly, and then he quickly explained, "No, I dare to say so much because I know he won't ask this question."
Are you trying to say that my perspective on things is rather tricky?
To be honest, most people don’t really care about this issue.
The same goes for Li Xu.
If it were someone else, he might not ask, so as not to hurt the other person's wounds.
But this happened to Xiao Jianping, and it was because he was unwilling to go on a blind date with Li Mei.
Then I have to ask.
Nothing else, just want to poke his scar and then take the opportunity to make fun of him.
It’s one thing that I look down on you, but is it unfair for you to go on a blind date with Li Mei?
That’s right, Li Xu is like this, helping his relatives but not others.
Even if Xiao Jianping was angry, he would only be angry for two days at most and then he would be fine.
No need to worry at all.
But he didn't expect that things would be different from what he imagined.
What Xiao Jianping said was not rebellious.
So there was no way to poke his scar.
Fortunately, there is now an opportunity to eat big melons, which can make up for it.
Seeing that he refused to admit it, Li Xu rolled his eyes and waved his hand pretentiously, "Forget it, forget it. Since you didn't guess right, I won't say anything. I'll go back after I finish this glass of water."
Then he picked up the water cup and drank it slowly.
But out of the corner of his eye he was secretly observing Xiao Jianping's expression.
His face was full of uncertainty.
It seems that he is struggling in his heart.
Li Xu laughed inwardly.
Little guy, do you really think I didn’t see that sudden change in your expression just now?
Seeing that he only needed two more sips to finish the water in the cup, Xiao Jianping really couldn't sit still anymore. He quickly stood up and said, "Lao Li, don't rush back. I'll pour you another glass of water. Please stay with me and chat for a while."
After saying that, he used his right hand to forcibly snatch the cup from Li Xu's hand.
Of course, Li Xu deliberately loosened his hand, otherwise how could it be so easy?
Putting the refilled water cup on the table in front of him, Xiao Jianping said casually, "Old Li, tell me what you guessed just now."
"You guessed wrong, what else can I say?"
"It's okay. If you guess wrong, I'll just treat it as a story."
Li Xu looked him up and down, a half-smile on his face. "Alright, stop pretending. Didn't I just say I really don't know what's going on with you? And you're still treating it like a story. Do you really think I'm a child who's so easy to fool?"
Hearing this, Xiao Jianping's face changed.
He quickly stood up, walked to the door and stuck his head out to check.
Unexpectedly, he actually found the problem and then walked out.
After a while, he came back and sat in front of Li Xu again.
Li Xu was stunned by his actions. After realizing what was happening, he asked, "Did Grandma Xiao really come to eavesdrop?"
"Yes, I got her away." Xiao Jianping nodded, then said, "I admit that what you said just now is indeed correct. Can you tell me what your guess is?"
Li Xu thought for a moment and said, "Then answer me a question first."
"Okay, go ahead."
"Why are you so reluctant about going on a blind date with my sister? Is it really because she's older than you?"
"If I say it's because of this, would you believe me?"
Looking at the sincere expression on his face, Li Xu was silent for a moment.
Then he spat, "Damn it, you're such a beast."
