Chapter 378 I'd Rather Be Stupid (I'm stuck, I'll make it up before the end of the month)
In July, the capital city was already showing signs of "scorching heat", and almost all animals didn't want to move.
Pavlov was very sensitive to the temperature. He could accurately find the coolest spot under the big elm tree according to the position of the sun in the morning, noon and evening, and then pant heavily with his tongue sticking out.
But it was the hottest time of the day, and Pavlov was walking back and forth in the yard dragging his dog leash, whimpering from time to time.
If an animal language expert passed by at this time, he would immediately be able to hear Pavlov's grievance.
[It smells so good, it smells so good. Can the three of you finish all the food? Instead of letting me eat the leftovers later, why don't you give me some of the soup first? ]
[Today, when the hostess scolded those two bad guests, I was shouting and shouting with all my strength. In addition to the soup, adding two more steamed buns is not too much, right? ]
[I said, why don’t you three start eating quickly? Why are you staring at each other? I am so anxious. ]
At this moment, Pavlov's eyes were filled with the four dishes and one soup on the table.
After Liu Muhan and Lu Jingyao left, Li Ye's meal was ready, and then the three of them sat at the dining table.
At this moment, Wen Leyu finally had the chance. He pointed at Fu Yiru and asked Li Ye: "Is this your relative?"
Li Ye nodded and said, "Yes, my relative."
"Oh~, let's eat."
Wen Leyu agreed and didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he smiled and invited Fu Yiru to eat.
Wen Leyu is not the type of person who likes to get close to everyone. As for Li Ye's family, he is more friendly with Li Yue. With others, he just nods to get to know them. He never gets too close to them because it is easy for people to lose their sense of propriety when they are too close.
But Fu Yiruo is not "someone else", so Li Ye had to say: "Why don't you ask who she is?"
"Who exactly?"
Wen Leyu was a little surprised. After taking a closer look at Fu Yiruo, he said, "I remember that your aunt has a cousin. Could it be that she is not her?"
Fu Yiruo and Li Ye are about 60% similar, and just now Fu Yiruo called Wen Leyu "sister-in-law",
Therefore, Wen Leyu believed that it must be a close relative's child, so the only possibility was Li Mingxiang's daughter Zhao Meiwen.
[What does Zhao Meiwen look like? ]
Wen Leyu thought about it carefully, but seemed to have no impression, because the only time they met was on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year when they went to pay homage to Old Huai Ye. How could he recognize him clearly in the dark?
But now it seems that it is not Zhao Meiwen, and looking at Li Ye’s expression, why does it seem as if the matter is quite serious?
So Wen Leyu asked: "Who is she exactly?"
Li Ye smiled and said, "She is my sister, my biological sister."
“.”
Isn't this just glaring at each other?
Teacher Ke must have investigated Li Ye's family situation eight hundred times, otherwise how could he let Li Ye stay overnight at the Wen family?
Although he lived in the guest room of the Wen family, he was treated as a future son-in-law.
Now you have another sister?
Are the work style issues of my future father-in-law Li Kaijian so serious?
Aren't you making a scene? The most feared thing in the system is the work style problem. If the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked. Will Li Ye become like his father in the future?
Wen Leyu glared at Li Ye a few times, then glared at Fu Yiru.
Fu Yiru also stared at Wen Leyu, as if the two of them were competing to see whose eyes were bigger and whose expression was cuter.
Both girls had big eyes, and they looked very cute when they stared, which made Li Ye laugh.
"You're still laughing?"
Wen Leyu glanced at Li Ye with dissatisfaction and said in a serious tone: "Tell me the details of the situation in detail.
Don’t think this is a trivial matter, we must take it seriously. If it is not handled properly, it may affect your future.”
Of course Li Ye knew that this was not a trivial matter, but he didn't care about any "future". He only cared about Wen Leyu and his own future.
So Li Ye said, "Xiao Yu, you should know about my mother, right?"
Wen Leyu was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I know. A few days ago, Sister Xiaoyue looked for your source book and discussed with me how to write a novel about Aunt Fu.
But later I thought it would be better to persuade her not to write, because instead of reminiscing about the sad past, it is better to work hard for tomorrow. "
Since the Wen family had investigated the Li family, it would be impossible to conceal the fact that Li Ye's mother disappeared immediately after the divorce. Li Zhongfa could hide it in Qingshui County, but he could not hide it from a family like the Wen family.
However, in the past few years, the Wen family was also in a bad situation, so they naturally understood or sympathized with Li Ye and advised him to look forward.
Li Ye nodded: "I also think that I should forget the past, but my mother is not dead. How can I forget it?"
“.”
"Not dead?"
"Yes, not dead?"
"Why didn't you die?"
"When she left, my father searched for her for several days but couldn't find her. In the end, he could only declare her missing."
"Gone? Where did she go? Li Ye, can you please stop panting when you talk? You are telling me a story here? Answer each question you ask. Can you speak in a coherent manner?"
“.”
Wen Leyu suddenly became a little angry. At this moment, she felt as if there was a little mouse in her heart, running around and playing hide-and-seek with her, and just wouldn't jump out so that she could kill it with one claw.
Li Ye waved his hand and said, "Give me five minutes. Don't interrupt me. I'll tell you everything in detail."
"Drink some water first and speak carefully. Five minutes is less than ten minutes."
Wen Leyu quickly poured a glass of water for Li Ye, and then moved closer to him, as if he was afraid that he might not hear clearly or miss something.
Li Ye looked at Wen Leyu, who had a heavy face just now and said, "This is not a small matter", and suddenly became curious. He couldn't help asking: "Xiaoyu, you just said it's not a small matter?"
"Oh, I was thinking the wrong thing just now, please explain it clearly."
Wen Leyu felt a little nervous, fearing that Li Ye would continue asking questions and she would not know how to answer.
Could it be that I just suspected that my future father-in-law had some problems? Wouldn't that be a bad conscience?
"After my mother divorced my father, she secretly took a train south, waited in Pengcheng for more than ten days, and then followed others to Hong Kong Island."
"When we arrived in Hong Kong, my mother realized she was pregnant with my sister. She wanted to turn back, but she was unwilling to do so. In the end, she insisted on going south to Malaysia."
"Later, I went to Lijiapo to participate in a debate, and my photo and name were published in the local newspaper. My mother couldn't help but go to Lijiapo and took out a family photo to test me."
"Originally my mother wanted to wait a few years until the situation here got better before coming back, but when she called me, she started talking to my sister."
Li Ye rambled on and on, basically explaining Fu Guiru's situation.
It was just that he himself added the view that the environment in the mainland would definitely improve. Others were not so optimistic, otherwise Li Zhongfa and Li Kaijian would not have worried about the Wen family's opinion.
After Li Ye finished speaking, Wen Leyu didn't know how many times he had been stunned.
She suddenly looked at her watch and said, "You've only been talking for three and a half minutes. Is there anything else you want to say? By the way, is this watch a gift from your mother?"
"Yes, this watch was taken off my mother's hand at that time. Many people in the debate team can prove it."
Li Ye looked at Wen Leyu and said seriously, "My mother said that this watch is for her daughter-in-law. Do you think it's okay in this situation?"
When Wen Leyu heard the word "daughter-in-law", her face turned red at first, but the second half of Li Ye's words made her subconsciously cover the Blancpain on her wrist with her hand.
The girl looked at Li Ye sharply and said fiercely, "What do you mean? Do you still want to go back? Li Ye, give me one to try?"
"Of course I don't want to come back," Li Ye said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "but you have to think about it. Given your family background, can you accept a son-in-law like me with such a complicated situation?"
Wen Leyu understood what Li Ye meant and said angrily: "What do you mean by our family background? When you and I first met, my family was despised by everyone. How can you say such things now?"
Seeing that the kitten was showing signs of transforming into a tiger cub, Li Ye quickly interrupted and said, "Xiao Yu, what I meant by saying this is not only to seek your opinion, but also your family's opinion."
"I like you, what does it have to do with them? Should I be your daughter-in-law? Why should I ask for their opinions?"
“.”
The two sentences that Wen Leyu blurted out hit Li Ye's heart hard, leaving him speechless for a long time.
For a family like Wen Leyu's, if you say that they don't consider their parents' opinions on matters such as marriage, that can simply be described as rebellious.
Moreover, Li Ye felt that when Wen Leyu said these two sentences, he did not think about it with his brain, it was just the obsession of love from the bottom of his heart.
Li Ye sighed and said with a smile: "Then you have to think it over carefully. If it affects your promotion in the future, don't blame me for not telling you!"
"You think too much."
Wen Leyu waved his hands, pretending to be nonchalant: "Our family's hope lies with my brother. How can my parents count on me? As long as I don't starve to death, it's fine."
“.”
Li Ye only believed a little bit of what Wen Leyu said.
Because he knew that Wen Guohua would definitely be the pillar of the Wen family in the future, and more than 70% of all the resources of the Wen family must be invested in Wen Guohua.
The power of a family is not enough to support two children at the same time. One person must become the boss to continue the family's legacy.
If the power is evenly invested in two people, then they may not be able to achieve high or low, and eventually lead to a decline in the family's status.
In his previous life, Li Ye had come into contact with a few people who would say, "My grandfather was a big shot, and my relatives are also big shots now."
They might be doing a little better than ordinary people, but it's limited. The only one who is doing well is their relative who was chosen in the beginning.
After a few generations, if there are no brilliant people among the children, then they will have no chance to be the big boss.
However, people like Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng who have the support of their elders and are capable themselves can allocate 30% of the resources to Wen Leyu. There is even a distribution plan for Li Ye's resources. It is not the kind of "as long as you don't starve to death" that Wen Leyu said.
So Li Ye said, "Since we haven't graduated yet, we can wait and see. Maybe after a few years, these problems will not be a problem anymore. But I think I should tell Teacher Ke, otherwise."
Seeing that Li Ye was about to beep again, Wen Leyu became impatient.
"Are you still going to eat? Are you still going to eat? You are so worried about such a small thing. Are you still a man?"
Li Ye: “.”
Seeing Li Ye speechless, Wen Leyu pointed at the dishes on the table and said mercilessly: "Heat up the dishes for us! How can we eat them if they are cold?"
“.”
"Okay, I'll heat it up for you."
Li Ye brought some hot dishes into the kitchen and put them back into the wok while laughing.
Fu Yiru, who stayed in the main room, looked at Wen Leyu with some fear.
She felt that Wen Leyu was no less capable than her own mother.
Wen Leyu looked at Fu Yiruo and suddenly asked, "Why, do you think it's inappropriate for me to order your brother around?"
"No, it's just right. Sister-in-law, if you were nice to my brother now, I would be worried, but..."
Fu Yiruo whispered, "Sister-in-law, are you really not worried about my mother's identity?"
"Why think so much?"
Wen Leyu glanced at Fu Yiru with raised eyebrows and said calmly: "Your brother actually doesn't like girls who are too smart, because girls who are too smart always consider gains and losses, and their love is not pure enough."
"I am definitely smart in other matters, but when it comes to things between me and your brother, I would rather be a little dumber.
He also likes me pretending to be stupid~"
