Chapter 116 Our second brother’s blind date is definitely a failure
Not only was she stunned, but Liu Erjiang in front of her was also stunned after seeing it.
Liu Xinghe also found the expression of the second brother very funny. After he saw the people in the yard, he went from being indifferent at first to being surprised and now to being relieved and a little happy.
She was 100% sure that the second brother’s relief and happiness must be because he was happy that his blind date would end in failure, and he was happy that it failed so quickly that he didn’t even have to deal with it.
Today, the second brother’s wish can be fulfilled.
It’s just a pity that her mother came here excitedly and expectantly. Look how happy her mother was when she saw the girl in the yard.
Today is destined not to be fulfilled as the old mother wished.
How about going to remind her mother first? But it was too late. Before her mother came, she specifically told them not to talk, but to stand at the back and listen to her. She would talk when she said it was okay. She
was afraid that she and her third brother would help her second brother do something. She wouldn't listen now. It would be even worse if she didn't go in. She could only react as it came.
When Liu Erjiang reacted and subconsciously looked at Liu Xinghe to exchange feelings with her eyes, Liu Xinghe made a gesture and a look to him, indicating that he should remind Ning's mother first.
Liu Erjiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this result. He laughed even more, nodded and turned around.
Liu Sanchuan, who was standing next to Liu Xinghe, noticed her movements, stopped, came to her side and whispered: "What's wrong, little sister?"
"I'm afraid that our second brother's marriage will not be successful. It's a done deal. I'm 100% sure." Liu Xinghe covered her mouth and whispered to Liu Sanchuan to explain.
Liu Sanchuan not only failed to solve the puzzle, but became even more confused. He touched his head with a puzzled look on his face: "Haven't we even gone in to see each other yet? How do you know?"
"Soon, you'll find out when you go in. Pay attention to the expression of the second brother and the girl's parents in front. I guarantee that you will immediately understand the meaning of this sentence." Liu Xinghe kept him in suspense and only gave him this much reminder for the time being. Now they were standing at the door, and it was not the time to talk.
She raised her chin slightly and said, "Mom is going to knock on the door. Look ahead. When we go in, hold Mom's hand if necessary."
Liu Sanchuan was confused. He looked at his second brother and then at the people in the yard with the half-open door. He had more and more puzzles in his mind. He had no idea what was going on between his second brother with a strange expression and his younger sister who was vague. But he was obedient and resolutely followed Liu Xinghe's words. After hearing the last sentence, he immediately looked over and watched the movement in front of him.
Ning Xiuyun helped her second son straighten his collar and took a deep breath. When she raised her hand to knock, Liu Erjiang grabbed her fist and prepared to tell her: "Mom..."
"What are you doing? You can't regret it now. You have to go in. Now shut up and speak when it's your turn."
Ning Xiuyun interrupted what he was going to say. She didn't want to listen to anything else as soon as she stepped into the door. She raised her other hand and knocked on the other half-open door of Aunt Zhang's house. She stepped over the threshold and shouted enthusiastically.
"Is his aunt at home?"
The extremely penetrating voice attracted the attention of the people standing in the yard.
"Don't blame me later." Liu Erjiang muttered when he saw that he was powerless to save the situation and spread his hands to Liu Xinghe.
Aunt Zhang, who was closest, ran over with a flushed face and opened the other half of the door to invite them in.
"Hey, Xiuyun, you're here, come in, hurry up."
"We're not late, are we?" Ning Xiuyun asked with a smile, signaling the children behind her to call for help.
"Hello, Auntie." The three siblings greeted Aunt Zhang in unison.
"Okay, okay, come in quickly." Aunt Zhang smiled and greeted everyone, and then waved her hand and replied to Ning Xiuyun: "It's not late at all. It just so happens that other friends have just arrived. The time is just right. Let's go and sit inside."
Aunt Zhang closed the door and took Ning Xiuyun's hand and walked inside. Ning Xiuyun stretched out a hand and pulled Liu Erjiang behind her to the front, so that he was only one step behind them.
Liu Erjiang lowered his head and wanted to laugh, but he had to purse his lips to hold it back.
Liu Sanchuan, who had been watching his second brother's every move, was very curious and wanted to know what would happen next. Why didn't his second brother dare to raise his head? What was he doing? Liu Sanchuan turned his head to Liu Xinghe and asked.
Liu Xinghe just smiled and didn't answer him, just let him continue watching.
"Sister Xu Chunhong, let me introduce you. This is Sister Ning Xiuyun whom I have always mentioned to you. The tall guy standing next to her is her second son, Liu Erjiang. Behind them are Erjiang's younger brother and sister. They are all good kids. The younger sister is a salesperson in the supply and marketing cooperative, and the eldest brother is serving in the army. The whole family is very nice."
Aunt Zhang led the people directly to the woman and introduced them to each other.
"Xiuyun, this is the sister Chunhong I told you about. On the right is her eldest daughter, Li Xiaoxia, and standing behind are Xiaoxia's younger brother and sister."
Ning Xiuyun was satisfied at first sight when she saw the quiet girl opposite her. She greeted the girl's parents with a smile on her face: "Sister Chunhong, I've heard about you from Sister Zhang a long time ago, and I've always wanted to meet you. Today I finally get to meet you."
Xu Chunhong opposite her saw that Liu Erjiang kept his head down and she couldn't see his face. She felt unhappy about his evasive actions, but when she thought of the good conditions of this family, and the newly built blue brick and tile house that the matchmaker showed them when they just came here, which was so good that it might not be found even with a lantern, she no longer felt any dissatisfaction or unhappiness in her heart, and responded to Ning Xiuyun happily.
"Hello, hello. I heard from Sister Zhang that you are one month older than me, so I will call you Sister Xiuyun. Today we can be regarded as meeting each other thanks to Sister Zhang. I am so happy today."
"Really? Hahaha, me too, sister, I feel friendly when I see you."
Ning Xiuyun greeted her, and at the same time noticed the actions of her second son. She patted Liu Erjiang's back quietly with her hand, glared at him with gritted teeth: "Stand up straight, raise your head, and say hello."
Liu Xinghe whispered in the back: "Here it comes."
Liu Sanchuan immediately opened his eyes and looked ahead, his eyes turning back and forth between his second brother and the girl's parents, waiting for his younger sister to say "here it comes".
So, he really saw an unforgettable scene next.
Liu Erjiang raised his head and smiled at the people in front of him: "Hello!"
Li Xiaoxia was a little happy when she saw the face of her blind date partner, but not too much.
Because she was thinking more about the eldest brother Liu Dahai who was mentioned by the matchmaker. They were both single, and one of them was still in the army, with a job, money, and respect.
The other one was working in the fields. Even a fool would know which one was better. If she could marry the eldest brother, she might be able to follow the army, eat commercial food, and leave this mountain valley. She had to think about how to say it.
However, Li Xiaoxia's mother Xu Chunhong's reaction after seeing Liu Erjiang's face was huge. Her eyes almost popped out. She staggered back a step, pointed at Liu Erjiang and shouted in shock:
"Is... it you?"
"Sister Chunhong, Erjiang, do you know each other? That's great." Aunt Zhang clapped her hands happily, completely ignoring the shock in Xu Chunhong's tone, or perhaps deliberately ignoring it.
"Yes, I know him." Liu Erjiang nodded to Aunt Zhang.
Ning Xiuyun, who knew her son well, couldn't laugh. She looked at Liu Erjiang strangely, with a little worry in her heart.
"Sister, this?" Liu Sanchuan nudged Liu Xinghe with his elbow.
Liu Xinghe muttered, "It's not just that we know each other, it's simply unforgettable."
"Huh?" Liu Sanchuan wondered why he didn't know the person his second brother and younger sister knew, and just looked at his second brother.
Liu Erjiang was no longer trying to hold back his laughter, and laughed happily without disguising it. He nodded decisively to the person who was shouting over there.
"It's me, the me who got the seat on the bus, the me who resolutely refused to give up my seat to you. Isn't it very surprising, unexpected, and unforgettable? I still remember what happened back then very clearly."
