Xie Linan said, "Don't talk nonsense. She has something on her mind and is planning to run away from marriage every day. Can you let me touch her?"
Ye Xiaozhen: "So you wanted to touch it, but you didn't?"
"Hey, don't frame me. When did I say I wanted to touch her? My mother let me touch her, and I wanted to touch her, too. I didn't even look at her."
"Didn't you see your family talking about marriage?"
"That's what my grandfather said, saying that their family is educated, a family of scholars, and their daughter is well-educated. At that time, I saw that she was so arrogant, looking at me, I was so stupid at that time, I thought that the confidence came from being a scholarly family. Bah, she was setting me up before the marriage."
He looked at Ye Xiaozhen and said with a smile, "It's better to run away. I've always seen her looking down on me, so I've been trying to save face and cancel the engagement. Now she wants to run away and make it difficult for me."
Xie Linan accidentally mentioned Zhang Xiaohui one day. The next day, she met Grandma Liu and asked her, "Grandma Liu, do you still remember Zhang Xiaohui?"
"Which Zhang Xiaohui?"
"I discussed this with Xie Lin'an before, and then I brought the child back and discussed this with Wang Dakun."
"You're talking about her. She married someone else."
"Will you marry someone else?"
"What then? She ran away from her lover and brought back a child with her. Her reputation is bad. Which good family in the village would want her? A few days ago, the gangster who eloped with her and abandoned her got beaten to death. When his parents found out, they came and took Zhang Xiaohui's child away, saying that this would prevent the family from coming to the family line. She was relieved without a child, so her family married her off. It's been a few days. I heard that family has a daughter."
No wonder, I haven't heard from her in recent days.
"Xiaozhen, why are you asking this? Your Lin An..."
"I just suddenly remembered it and asked casually."
"Oh, that's what happened to her. I heard that she's living a well-off life now, but it's not bad. But it's definitely not as good as marrying your Lin Anhao. She doesn't have that kind of fate. You think she would be deceived by gangsters, run away from the marriage, and marry Xie Lin Anhao? How could she have suffered such a hardship?"
Yesterday, Xie Linan said that he had never even looked at her.
However, if she were to make a mistake, given Lin An's personality, he would probably cancel the marriage even if it had been arranged, unless there was a big conflict between the two.
The two younger brothers-in-law played with their classmates all day long, and Hongxia was not idle either.
She has nothing to do these days and is busy looking for her former friends.
She went out with a few friends that day, and when she came back, she leaned against the kitchen with red eyes and said to Xie Li and Ye Xiaozhen: "Mom, aunt, Xiaowen is so pitiful."
In the past two days, they have seldom cooked.
But now the family has come back to eat, the nanny has also gone home, and they have to be cooks again.
When it's almost dinner time, they always stay in the kitchen.
Hearing this, the two put down their work.
Xie Li asked her, "What's the matter?"
"I heard from Chen Yingying that Xiaowen's parents beat and scolded him three times a day."
ah?
"Which Chen Yingbao?"
"She was my former classmate. Her father was also a teacher. They lived next door to Xiaowen's family, so she knew everything about Xiaowen's family."
Xie Li and Ye Xiaozhen looked at each other.
Xie Li put down the kitchen knife and asked Hongxia, "Why did you hit and scold him?"
"I heard that my third uncle asked him to ask my great uncle for money, and when he came, he went home every day to beat and scold him."
Um?
The two were shocked.
Xie Li rolled up her sleeves and said, "I think Xie Zhili is shameless. How can he have the nerve to ask Grandpa for money? Grandpa is already this old, he should be happy that he didn't ask him for support, but he still has the nerve to ask Grandpa for money? I...his grandmother, he is so useless that he takes his anger out on the child. I am so angry that I want to slap him in the face."
This was overheard by an old man who was passing by.
Xie Li saw the grandfather standing behind Hongxia and quickly shut up.
"Grandpa, why did you come out? It's very cold outside, go back inside and warm yourself by the fire."
Lin Xinghua said: "Xiao Li, I heard it all."
Xie Li: “…”
"I guessed what you said, so a few days ago I told Lin An that I was going to die, and the person I was most worried about was Xiaowen."
"Grandpa, what nonsense are you talking about? You are a big brother, how can you keep talking about death? You will be fine, and you will live a hundred years."
Shirley went to hold him and sit.
The old man said earnestly, "You, don't try to coax me with nice words. Even though you hide things from me and tell me everything, I know the truth. I know how long I have lived. There is no one older than me in the village. I am a loser, but I have lived long enough."
Xie Li glanced at him and said, "You old man, you actually said that I don't like to hear words. What do you mean by enough? Living a long life is a blessing. Do you still complain about living a long life?"
Lin Xinghua smiled and said, "Okay, okay, stop talking about this. This Xiaowen... ah!"
He sighed and said, "I knew it would be like this, because when they came to see me that day, your third uncle mentioned something to me."
God, he didn’t say anything when they asked him about his death that day. Does he need to say this?
Ye Xiaozhen also put down the work in her hands and stood at the kitchen door to listen to him.
"What did he mention?"
"He said he was a sophomore teacher and wanted to be promoted."
Xie Li chuckled, "Then can you become the emperor just because you want to? I also want to be the emperor, I want to be Wu Zetian, can you let me be the emperor?"
"Yes, I also told him that if he wanted to be the boss, he should work hard. But he thought that his boss looked down on him, so he wanted me to talk to Lin An and ask Lin An to help him take a shortcut."
Ye Xiaozhen: "How do we get there?"
"Lin An is familiar with the principal, so he wants Lin An to talk to the principal."
Ye Xiaozhen said: "If he has the qualifications and ability to do the job, Lin An can tell the principal and he can get promoted. But I remember that he didn't even get a job as a class teacher. Besides, he has a bad character and a good relationship with his colleagues. I guess they didn't even vote for him. How can he be the principal?
Even if we risk our dignity and ask the principal for help, it will still be difficult for him. Think about it, if you are two or three votes short, the principal can say a few good things about you and elect you, which will convince everyone. But how can we convince everyone if the principal promotes someone with zero votes?"
Xie Li nodded, "Yes, Grandpa, please ask Lin An for help. If it's Uncle San's situation, he can't help. If you ask for forgiveness like this, it will make it difficult for the principal. If everyone gets upset, it will be even more difficult for the principal."
Lin Xinghua nodded, "I understand. I didn't agree, but he got angry with me, saying how easy his life was and how hard his life was. The family didn't have money to buy a big house, and Lin Chuan had already married a wife, so he asked me to find a solution for him. At my age, what solution can I come up with?"
