Chapter 386 Her family's threshold is a bit high

Dongshan Province does have a rule that even if a couple is in a free love relationship, when they are discussing marriage, they have to find a matchmaker who is known or recognized by both parties to facilitate communication between the two parties.

The Youth League Committee official Li, whom Yang Yumin found, was indirectly responsible for the overseas export and foreign exchange earnings of "Homesickness". Of course, he knew both Li Ye and Yang Yumin.

Moreover, decades later, Secretary Li is the real boss. If this matchmaker doesn't approve, who else do you want to find to approve?

"We do have such rules in Dongshan, but I am young, so the final decision will have to be made by my elders."

"That's for sure, but Li Ye, can you tell me, do your elders have any specific requirements for your sister's marriage?"

"I don't have any requirements. They know about Yang Yumin and my sister. In principle, they don't object, but there are always some minor details that need to be discussed. When the time comes, I'll have to trouble Director Li to come again and help communicate."

"That's no problem. I happen to have some free time recently. Just call me anytime."

Secretary Li smiled and agreed to Li Ye, then quietly turned his head to look at Yang Yumin.

Yang Yumin dragged him to the door so late at night, and he thought there would be some big obstacles! But after listening to Li Ye's words, it seemed to be going smoothly.

Secretary Li had no idea that the biggest obstacle was his brother-in-law. Yang Yumin had heard from Li Yue more than once that Li Ye had a very important say in the family, and as long as Li Ye was dealt with, basically everything would be settled.

Although they had finalized what they needed to discuss today as soon as they entered the door, Secretary Li and Yang Yumin couldn't leave immediately. They had to sit down and exchange a few words.

"Student Li Ye, your yard is quite nice! When I first heard that you bought a house with a collective household registration, I didn't quite understand it, but now I see that I really understand it. It's quite good."

"Yes, I bought it for 10,000 yuan, but now I can't even get it for 15,000 yuan."

"Really?" Secretary Li said in surprise, "Then I'll have to ask you for advice. This is much more cost-effective than putting the money in the bank."

"Haha, then just ask whatever you want. I'll tell you everything I know. If you're short of anything, I can help you make up for it."

"Of course, of course. Everyone in Beijing University knows that you, Li Ye, are a small wealthy man."

Li Ye was laughing and chatting with Secretary Li, and they were getting along quite well.

At this time, Li Yue brought out a plate of fruit, placed it gently on the table, then turned around and went out again.

Li immediately pointed at Yang Yumin and said, "I was wondering why you had to drag me here so late! So you're here to ask for the hand of the fairy!"

"Li Ye, your family's betrothal gift needs to be increased by 20 yuan, otherwise Yang Yumin will get it for free!"

“.”

Li Ye almost couldn't help curling his lips, thinking if you saw my elder sister's boxing skills and how she could beat up someone like Yang Yumin easily, we might discuss the amount of the dowry.

Li Ye smiled faintly and said, "Our family doesn't ask for a dowry, we only ask for a long life together. Money doesn't matter, as long as we can live a stable life."

"Bang~"

Secretary Li slapped the table and praised, "Old Yang, you are lucky to have met such a good family. You must treat their sister well."

Yang Yumin nodded repeatedly, saying, "That's right, if I don't treat his sister well, Li Ye won't let me go! His announcement of being a hero is scary to look at."

"Hahahaha, I've seen it too. It does look scary."

The report on Li Ye's heroic act said that they were three righteous young men who knocked down more than 20 criminals. If you think about their fighting power, you will be afraid.

The three of them chatted for a long time, and then Yang Yumin and Secretary Li stood up to say goodbye.

Li Ye took his sister Li Yue's car keys and drove the two of them home.

Secretary Li was surprised and asked, "Li Ye, is this car your sister's?"

Li Ye smiled and said, "It's from Pengcheng Seventh Factory. My sister is in charge of some sales work around Beijing. She's always running around, so she specially assigned a car."

Secretary Li also laughed: "Once the steering wheel turns, no section chief will be replaced! Old Yang, you have to work hard."

Yang Yumin smiled and said, "I do have to work hard, because Li Yue not only earns more than me, but is also currently studying at night school, so I asked Secretary Li to help me make the decision. It's really impossible for ordinary people to have this kind of marriage."

"Hahaha, I'll take care of this marriage."

Li Ye turned his head slightly and glanced at Yang Yumin.

When he first joined the Lone Army Literary Society, Li Ye thought that Yang Yumin was the most promising one, because he was calm and composed, not arrogant or impatient, and was more amiable than Li Huaisheng, who was always at the forefront.

Now it seems that Yang Yumin had good vision and luck. He did not miss Director Li, nor did he miss Li Ye.

As long as this kind of people don't fall into the trap, they will never be in the same boat again.

"Li Ye, thank you!"

“.”

Li Ye turned his head and saw Yang Yumin's frank eyes.

"Thank you for accepting my family. It is God's blessing that I can find a lover like your sister. I will definitely cherish her and grow old with her."

“.”

"Alas~"

Li Ye sighed lightly and said nothing.

Yang Yumin feels that his family is complicated, but Li Ye and Li Yue’s families are not simple either!

. . . . . .

Li Ye returned to Zaojun Temple and found that Li Yue and Fu Yiru were not asleep. Instead, they were huddled around the phone making calls. From the sound of their voices, he could tell that they were discussing with Fu Guiru whether they should come to the capital.

After all, her own daughter is getting married, so the mother must at least meet her son-in-law, right?

But it was obvious that Fu Guiru didn't want to.

Li Yue was trying to persuade her on the phone: "Mom, he just joined the company and he's not an official. Your status doesn't matter."

Fu Guiru on the other end of the phone said seriously: "Xiao Yue, please don't say that. Discipline in his department is very strict. You must keep my affairs confidential, otherwise it will affect his future and your relationship."

Li Yue's tears overflowed from her eyes, and she cried, "More than ten years ago, my father and grandfather asked me to keep it a secret. Now I'm getting married, and you still want me to keep it a secret. How long should I keep it a secret?"

Fu Guiru on the other end of the phone was also upset, but she still hardened her heart: "You have kept it a secret for more than ten years, so what if you wait a few more years? I think the wind direction has changed now. Maybe in two years, this little thing of mine won't be a big deal."

Li Yue was furious and said cruelly, "Then I will get engaged to him first and wait two years before getting married. I will wait for you to come back and watch me get married."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Xiaoyue, are you going to waste my youth? How old will you be if you wait another two years? Do you really want to make yourself look like an old lady and be laughed at?"

“.”

According to the relevant laws newly introduced in the mainland in 1980, men may not marry before the age of 22, and women may not marry before the age of 20. However, due to the principle of "it is better to have only one child", the flexibility standards vary from place to place.

For example, in Dongshan, in some places the woman must be at least 23 years old before she can register for marriage.

But now is not the time like several decades ago when the legal age of 23 or 32 was not considered late to get married. Young people basically register according to their age, and some even get married without registering.

If Li Yue waits another two years and reaches the age of twenty-five or twenty-six, she will be an old maid.

The difference between a young girl and an old girl is huge. Just the rolling eyes is unbearable.

If this were like in later generations, a woman in her thirties still calling herself a "little girl" would make the neighbors laugh to death.

Fu Guiru didn't hear Li Yue's answer for a long time, and she also said angrily: "How did you get through when I thought I was dead? Why are you getting stubborn now that you see me?

"Whether I see you get married or not has nothing to do with whether your life is happy or not. At worst, you can bring your child to Pengcheng, and I can help you take care of the child. Isn't that enough? With a child, who can separate you?"

“.”

After being scolded, Li Yue stopped insisting, but still muttered: "Li Ye has already told his girlfriend, and she didn't despise him even though she has such a family background."

"How can it be the same? You are marrying over there, while Li Ye's wife is marrying in."

Fu Guiru said something about her daughter again, and then asked, "I also heard from Yiru that the girl Li Ye is looking for seems to have a good family background. Can you tell me how it is so?"

“.”

Li Yue pouted and said, "Mom, Xiaoye's girlfriend's surname is Wen, and her family's threshold is a bit high."

“.”

After listening to Li Yue's story, Fu Guiru remained silent for a long time.

She really didn't expect that her son would have a girlfriend like Wen Leyu.

And according to the reports from Li Yue and Fu Yiru, Wen Leyu is really very good to Li Ye.

Don’t let such a wonderful marriage be ruined in your own hands!

Fu Guiru felt regretful for no reason, regretting that she should not have gone to Lijiaopo to find Li Ye.

"If we can be patient for a few more years and let Xiao Ye and the girl from the Wen family get married, that would be fine!"

"If I leave Pengcheng and return to Malaysia now, will the situation be better?"

After thinking about it, Fu Guiru actually began to have some thoughts of backing out.

But after a few days, her idea became unrealistic.

Because Pengcheng Red Bull is selling like hot cakes.

On July 24, 1984, the Los Angeles Olympic Games opened. It was the first time that the flower-growing athletes participated in the Olympics and achieved a good result of 15 golds, 8 silvers and 9 bronzes, ranking 4th in the medal table.

Pengcheng Red Bull, as the designated drink of the Olympic delegation, became popular all over the world overnight.

The commercials prepared by Li Ye in advance were also broadcasted along with the live broadcast of the game, maximizing the star effect.

The consequence of this was that countless orders came to Fu Guiru like snowflakes, both from the mainland and overseas. Fu Guiru felt a little breathless, but it also made her feel indescribably excited.

With such easy success and such bright prospects, how could Fu Guiru possibly retreat?

[This is my son's inheritance. I cannot retreat.]
