Chapter 417: Introducing a Person, a Top Relative
Everyone looked at Zhang's father, who pondered and said, "It's probably more than three million, but less than three and a half million. It's mainly because the decoration costs a lot, but building the house is not that expensive."
Li Meili gasped and exclaimed, "More than three million! I can't build it even if I save for my whole life!"
Her family just built an ordinary three-story house and didn't ask for it to be decorated beautifully. It hasn't been finished yet. If they follow the Zhang family's standards, they will never have to live in a new house in their entire lives.
Mother Zhang said quickly, "This house took a hundred years to build. Plus, it's a bit large, and the girl is also very particular, so we spent so much. Where else would we normally spend this much money?"
Li Meili thought of the current situation of the Zhang family and sighed in her heart, "You are so lucky. Now you have finally achieved your goal after all the hardships. You have a house and you are just waiting to get married. By the way, Bai Yan can also get married. Let me tell you, my family has a relative in Guoqing. The girl in the family also graduated from a junior college. She is a few years younger than him and looks good. How about it? Do you want me to introduce you to someone?"
Talking about this kind of thing, Li Meili immediately became interested and became energetic again.
Zhang's mother didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She patted Li Meili's hand and said, "I was just about to tell you that Bai Yan is getting married soon. I'm already looking at the date. The sooner the better."
"What? A few days ago, you were still complaining that the kid had no partner, so why is he getting married now?" Li Meili widened her eyes, a little surprised and a little regretful.
Li Yongfu and the others were also very surprised and looked at Zhang Baiyan.
"Which girl are you talking about?" Chen Yuelan asked curiously.
Li Meili hurriedly said, "Little sister, I'm telling you, you can't be careless about who this kid marries, you have to look carefully!"
"I watched very carefully. The child has been living under my nose for more than a year!" Zhang's mother laughed.
Everyone thought about it for a while before they suddenly realized something.
"Are you talking about the girl who works as Wanwan's assistant?" Li Yongfu asked with a raised eyebrow.
Zhang's mother nodded, smiling from ear to ear, "The girl's name is Qin Wenjun, she lives in An County, and now the whole family is working in my house. After getting to know them for a while, I found that this family is all honest people, without those twists and turns. Wenjun is also a hardworking girl. She has been working all the time since she came here for more than a year. She has never complained about overtime when asked to work overtime. Occasionally, she will take the initiative to help when the family is too busy. I have liked her for a long time, but I don't know what the child is thinking, so I have never figured it out.
A few years ago, the girl's mother came to help and asked me to introduce a boyfriend to the girl. I introduced Bai Yan directly. Only then did I know that my silly boy had already liked her for a long time. I didn't have to do much ideological work on the child and the deal was done.
No, I was planning to bring that girl here today, but her mother said that since we were going to talk about marriage, we should go back to our hometown and prepare some things, so I had to let her go. "
When everyone heard this, they fell silent.
Li Yongfu poured a cup of tea for Zhang Baiyan and said with a relieved smile: "Since you are getting married, your parents won't have to work so hard in the future. I have seen that girl and have been to her several times. She is very nice to people and looks good. Live a good life in the future. When you get married, your uncle will give you a big red envelope, hehe."
Zhang Baiyan took the tea and quickly replied: "Uncle, I will try my best to make my parents live a good life. As for the red envelope, forget it. My parents said that they will not accept the red envelope this time."
"What's going on?" Li Yongfu looked up at Zhang's father.
Father Zhang pondered and said, "That's what I meant. Back then, our family was in such a difficult situation and everyone helped us out without any reservations. This time, just consider it as my way of thanking you all. I can't really accept the red envelopes, but our whole family has agreed to it. We'll be very happy when you guys come over."
Li Yongfu shook his head without even thinking, "That won't do! I'm the child's uncle after all, I can't not show some appreciation."
Mr. Zhang was still refusing.
Li Meili, who had been in high spirits just now, was no longer talking. After Lu Cui finished cooking, she immediately went to help. After eating, she sat for a while and then went back with Zhao Guoqing and the others.
Along the way, Li Meili had a gloomy face and complained to Zhao Guoqing: "Go back and tell your cousin's wife that this matter won't work out, and tell her not to worry about it!"
Li Meili became furious when she thought of that relative. When she first knew that Zhang Jianye's family was doing poorly, he often said sarcastic things in front of her. Now that they are doing better, he starts to come to their house every now and then to ask this and that, and even wants to marry her daughter to them. If Zhao Guoqing had not mentioned it to her several times, and if that girl was not as unreliable as her parents, she would not have told Zhang's mother about this matter. She didn't expect it would turn out to be such a weird situation.
Zhao Guoqing also had a stern face and let Li Meili talk all the way without saying a word.
The family had just returned home and hadn't even sat down when the other party showed up.
Li Meili slipped straight into the room and let Zhao Guoqing handle it himself.
Zhang Guoqing didn't say anything. He invited people to sit down when they came in. The woman peeked into the room for a while and asked, "Where's Meili? I saw you all came back together just now!"
Zhao Guoqing lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "She has something to do and needs to be busy for a while."
"Oh, so that's it!" The woman had no choice but to sit down with a wry smile, looking into the room from time to time. After waiting for a long time, Li Meili still didn't come out, so she had to ask Zhao Guoqing: "Guoqing, how is the matter I asked Meili to help me find out? I'm not bragging, my girl has a diploma, she's pretty, and she's nice. You can't find a partner as good as my girl in this area!"
Zhao Guoqing didn't say anything. He waited until the other party finished bragging before shaking his head and saying, "If that doesn't work out, there's no need to worry about it. They're getting married soon, and both parties have met and agreed on it."
The woman's face changed drastically when she heard that. She questioned unhappily, "Guoqing! You can't fool me about this. I just asked about it before the New Year. A friend who works for them told me that Zhang Baiyan is still single! Think about it, my father helped a lot when your family was in trouble. You can't be so heartless!"
With a "bang", Zhao Guoqing put down the teacup heavily, picked up his mobile phone angrily and called Zhang's father, turning on the speaker.
The call was quickly connected, and Zhang's father asked drunkenly, "Guoqing, are you home yet?"
Zhao Guoqing took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then said, "Just arrived, how about you guys?"
"We're almost there. That bad boy Bai Yan rides his electric bike like a turtle. It's too slow! Burp." Father Zhang said with a burp.
