Chapter 27 Chapter 27 Resistance
Li Changhong's words caused an uproar in Shujia Village again!
If Shujia Village were a news channel, Shu Niannian could be considered to have been frequently on the "hot search" list these days.
His fiancé had just been snatched away by his cousin, and before everyone had time to sympathize with him, the director of the machinery factory came to propose marriage, wanting Shu Niannian to be his daughter-in-law? !
Oh my god! What kind of good luck is this? !
The Lu family was far away in Haicheng. Even if they were extremely wealthy, the people in Shujia Village could not see them. They had no idea about officialdom or status. They only knew that the Lu family was a wealthy and prestigious family in Haicheng.
But the director of a machinery factory is different! One third of the people in Shujia Village work in the machinery factory. When they ask for leave, apply for benefits, or even ask their children to take their jobs, they must get Li Changhong’s signature. Therefore, the director of the machinery factory is their breadwinner!
Now the parents who provide you with food and clothing come to propose marriage in person, what a great honor it is!
Upon learning that Li Changhong had arrived, Shu Guoqing, the head of Shujia Village, rushed over to guide Li Changhong and gave him enough face. Li Changhong was naturally a man who knew what was going on, so he also mentioned the promotion of Shu Guoqing's youngest son to a regular employee. "Next March, I will let him and Shu Wenqiang become regular employees together. They are both good and hardworking children. They are the hope of the machinery factory!"
Shu Guoqing had never thought that the distance from the village entrance to Shu Guodong's house was so short. Before he could say a few words to Li Changhong, he had already arrived at Shu Guodong's door.
Shu Guodong was thinking about how to proceed with the blind date between Shu Niannian and Li Changhong's son when there was a knock on his door. Although it was a wooden door, it was knocked loudly, which showed how much strength the person knocking on the door used. Shu Guodong felt distressed. He stood up and walked quickly to the door. Just when he was about to put on a stern face and say don't knock so hard next time, the door opened and he saw Shu Guoqing and Li Changhong standing at the door, accompanied by a chubby older sister and a tall young man who looked like Li Changhong.
Shu Guodong could hardly believe his eyes. He had just thought about how to talk to Li Changhong about becoming in-laws when Li Changhong arrived at his doorstep with the matchmaker and his son.
This is really what you wish for!
Shu Guodong quickly invited Li Changhong into the house. Li Changhong was followed by dozens of people who wanted to talk to Li Changhong. Shu Guoqing only let Li Changhong, the matchmaker and Li Zhiqiang in, and stopped the rest of the people outside the door.
In order to make ointments and hydrosols, Shu Niannian built a simple shed in the yard as her temporary laboratory. At this moment, she was making hydrosols in the shed. The scent of roses swirled out of the small red clay stove. After the fire boiled, it entered the slow simmering stage. Shu Niannian sealed the fire with the iron stove, took out the sterilized bottles and containers, and collected the gurgling water vapor. She was so focused on her work that she didn't even notice someone entering her laboratory.
Li Zhiqiang looked at Shu Niannian, who was squatting beside the small stove and collecting water vapor in a bottle. He felt that she was like a flower fairy, collecting the fragrance of roses in a room filled with the scent of roses.
"Do you need my help?"
Shu Niannian, who was concentrating on her work, replied casually, "No, I have to do this job myself, only then can I feel at ease."
After answering, Shu Niannian realized belatedly that this was not her eldest brother's voice.
Li Zhiqiang laughed, took a few steps and came to Shu Niannian. He greeted Shu Niannian in a familiar manner, "Hello, my name is Li Zhiqiang."
Shu Niannian was a little confused, and it took her several seconds to remember who Li Zhiqiang was.
"The son of the director of the machinery factory?" The other party was very familiar, so Shu Niannian was not shy and confirmed the visitor's identity.
Li Zhiqiang nodded and said, "Yes, you know me?"
Shu Niannian put down the bottle filled with rose water and replaced it with a new bottle. Her hands were steady and she spoke without interruption. "I just found out yesterday. My father told me that you have good grades and asked me to ask you for help if I have any questions. But my grades are also very good and I really don't need tutoring. Thank you."
Shu Niannian had a clear voice and spoke directly and crisply. Li Zhiqiang liked girls like this, so he chuckled and said, "Oh, is this what your father told you?"
Shu Niannian turned around and asked doubtfully, "Is there anything else?"
Li Zhiqiang didn't beat around the bush at all, "I want you to date me."
His voice was not loud, but his pronunciation was clear. Shu Niannian had a strong ability to understand. She could hear every word Li Zhiqiang said, and she could also understand the sentences together.
But where should I start?
Shu Niannian was puzzled, "Dating?"
Li Zhiqiang nodded, "Yes!"
After receiving Li Zhiqiang's affirmative answer, Shu Niannian was a little confused, "But we don't know each other? And my family and your family don't have much in common, how do you know me?"
Shu Niannian didn't blush or feel nervous. Facing the sudden blind date, she didn't feel awkward at all. She looked at Li Zhiqiang. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and three-dimensional facial features, which were very consistent with the current aesthetic. He was also very gentle and wore gold-rimmed glasses, looking very friendly.
However, she didn't have that heart-pounding feeling.
Seeing that Shu Niannian was not overly happy, Li Zhiqiang knew that the title of the son of the director of the machinery factory was not a plus for Shu Niannian. He decided to tell the truth, "My father said that he accidentally saw you at the door of the machinery factory and thought you should be my type, so I came here. As a result, I saw that you are indeed my type. If you don't have a suitable candidate now, why don't you consider me?"
Shu Niannian didn't want to talk about such a private topic with Li Zhiqiang, so she could only say in a roundabout way, "I'm 18 years old this year, and I'm going to take the college entrance exam next year. I don't want to date right now."
She told Li Zhiqiang clearly what she thought. Li Zhiqiang was not embarrassed or angry at being rejected. Instead, he smiled and said, "We can just be friends first and see how things go."
Shu Niannian did not agree to let him look everywhere, and said bluntly, "I don't have any ideas in this regard now."
Li Zhiqiang was not discouraged after being rejected repeatedly by the girl he liked. When Shu Niannian was busy, he helped her clean up the laboratory, sweeping up the petals scattered on the ground and cleaning the powder residue on the table into the trash can.
Shu Niannian didn't say anything, just watched quietly. It turned out that Li Zhiqiang was a good worker. In a short while, he cleaned Shu Niannian's laboratory.
Shu Niannian had finished collecting the rose water, and Li Zhiqiang had already cleaned up the laboratory, which saved Shu Niannian a lot of time.
In the main room, Shu Guodong and Li Changhong saw Li Zhiqiang enter the laboratory and did not come out for a long time, so they thought that the two children were having a very good chat.
The fat matchmaker began to praise Li Zhiqiang in various ways. "He is a graduate of Beijing University of Science and Technology, young and promising. He will intern directly in the machinery factory next year. During the internship, he will start as a mechanical engineer, first go deep into the bottom, and then gradually move up. Later, our machinery factory hopes to move towards modernization under Zhiqiang's leadership."
Shu Guodong was a serious fitter. He was very happy to hear what the chubby matchmaker said, but he didn't remember anything. He only knew that Li Zhiqiang had a good academic background.
However, Shu Niannian understood. As soon as she came out, she heard Pang Dundun's speech. She thought that the matchmaker hired by Li Changhong was a knowledgeable and experienced person, otherwise she would not have said such words.
When the chubby matchmaker saw Shu Niannian and Li Zhiqiang coming out of the laboratory together, she immediately praised them, "Oh my, look at them, these two are such a perfect match, they are made in heaven. If you can't be together, who else can?!"
Although Shu Niannian came out with Li Zhiqiang, she always kept a distance from Li Zhiqiang. Shu Niannian walked straight to Shu Guodong and sat down, and Li Zhiqiang also walked straight to Li Changhong and sat down.
Li Changhong was very satisfied with Shu Niannian. He was about to say a few words to finalize the marriage, but Li Zhiqiang interrupted him, "Dad, what Nian Nianan meant is that she is not familiar with me, and she is still in school. She wants to wait a while. We can start as friends first."
As soon as he said this, Li Changhong's smile froze on his face, but he was a leader who had to deal with situations, and his expression got out of control in just a moment. Shu Guodong and the chubby matchmaker also lost their expressions.
After Li Changhong regained his composure, he began to take control of the situation.
He also realized that his son had hit a wall this time. Li Zhiqiang was very satisfied with Shu Niannian, but Shu Niannian was indifferent.
Starting with friends is just an excuse.
"It doesn't matter. Young people, especially educated young people, are different from us. They pursue higher-level things. They want to know and understand each other. We should respect their opinions, hahaha..."
The chubby matchmaker rolled her eyes a few times and immediately followed Li Changhong's words and said, "Hey, who says it's not true? We are old-fashioned people, and they are the pioneers of the times and the leaders of the future!"
Shu Niannian wanted to laugh. It seemed that not everyone could be a matchmaker. For example, she herself could not do it as easily as the chubby matchmaker.
The two parties exchanged a lot of polite words, and then Li Changhong took Li Zhiqiang and the fat matchmaker away.
Shu Wenhui and Shu Guoqiang were dumbfounded. They almost became the brother-in-law of the son of the machinery factory director?
Shu Wenqiang tapped Shu Niannian's forehead with his finger, "Why don't you agree? If I become the brother-in-law of the son of the director of the machinery factory, I can walk sideways in the machinery factory in the future."
Shu Niannian knew that Shu Wenqiang was joking, but she thought about it seriously. Looking across the entire county, whose family status could be as high as that of the director of the machinery factory?
Such a family is not the best, but it is one of the best.
Li Zhiqiang also has good conditions. He graduated from the University of Science and Technology and has a bright future.
Why is she so resistant in her heart?
