Liang Jianyi came back early in the afternoon. After dinner, he said to his second son and daughter, "Deputy Commander Xue's family has moved here for several days. We should have visited him a long time ago, but you haven't been home, so it has been delayed until now. Today, let's go to his house and sit for a while to get to know him, so that we don't have to meet him when we meet later."
"Okay! I'm going back to the army tomorrow, and I don't know when I'll be back next time. Let's go today so as not to be rude! I'll go upstairs to change my clothes and come down soon." Liang Yiyi said.
Two days ago, Xue Zhihe brought his wife and daughter to Liang's house and sat for a while. Unfortunately, the two children were not at home at the time. It was only with the introduction of Liang Jianyi that the hostesses of the two families got to know each other. Today, Liang Jianjun was going to bring his family over, and he had made an appointment with Xue Zhihe a long time ago.
Liang Wenyu’s father’s words meant nothing to him. Having been in charge of Liangcheng International for such a long time, he understood these human relationships better than anyone else.
It was her first time as a guest at someone's house, so she couldn't dress casually. Liang Yiyi picked out a pure white off-shoulder embroidered long dress and a pair of half-heeled diamond-studded sandals in the same color. She looked like a pure little fairy.
Coming down from upstairs, Ming Huixin's eyes lit up. "The first time I saw this dress, I thought it would suit my daughter Yi Yi. I didn't expect it to look even better than I imagined. She's truly worthy of being my daughter. She looks so beautiful in anything she wears."
The woman who was praised felt a little embarrassed, "Oh, Mom, how can you praise me like that? If others heard this, they would laugh to death."
The old man nodded continuously when he saw his granddaughter's outfit. "What are you laughing at? Who dares to laugh? My granddaughter is already beautiful. Are we not allowed to say anything?"
Liang Jianyi also came out to join in the fun, "They want to make people laugh, but they haven't even had the chance! Now, let alone this compound, even in the Beijing Military Region, anyone who is slightly informed knows that my daughter, Liang Jianyi, is both literary and martial, and she's beautiful. You don't know, many people have asked me about Yi Yi's situation. At first I didn't understand. Asking how old the child is is not surprising, but why are they asking if Yi Yi has a boyfriend? Later I figured out that they wanted to take my daughter home to be their daughter-in-law. I stopped them at the time. My daughter is only seventeen, and my family doesn't want her enough. It's useless to keep thinking about her. We don't plan to consider marriage before she turns twenty-five. They calmed down a bit."
"That's right, girl Yi Yi should stay at home with me for a few more years. But if there is someone of the same age who is suitable, we can observe him first. After three to five years, if we see if his character is good, it is not impossible to find him a partner. This will save us from catching someone who is not so suitable later." The old man said seriously.
Hey, you know what, this really hits the spot in Minghui's mind. Whichever guy she likes, she'll observe him secretly first. After five or six years, if his character is really good, Yi Yi will be 22 or 23 years old by then, so it's not too late to have a boyfriend then.
"Dad, what you said really makes sense. As the saying goes, men are afraid of choosing the wrong career and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. Let's find candidates for her in advance and observe them for four or five years. When the time comes, we can let the guy who has outstanding character and is not fickle and incompetent date us. I don't believe that we can't pick out a good partner for each of us." Ming Huixin said happily.
These words moved everyone in the room, even Liang Wenyu looked thoughtful. There were a few people around him who seemed to have good character, but they were a few years older than him. No, the older ones had to be ruled out first, as his sister would definitely not look at them.
Liang Yiyi suddenly felt awkward. What was going on? How did the topic turn to when she would get married and have a boyfriend? Was it really okay to talk about something like that in front of her? She was only seventeen. Wasn't it a little too early to be thinking about this?
Oh no, she had lost her composure. "Didn't Dad say we were going to visit the Xue family tonight? Are we still going?"
Ming Huixin clapped her hands and almost forgot about the important matter. It was all her husband's fault for changing the subject. Thinking of this, she turned around and glared at Liang Jianyi.
This glare made Liang Jianjun's bones go soft, and he was already secretly wondering how to spend the evening's entertainment activities.
Coughing, Liang Jianyi suppressed the inexplicable anger in his heart and said, "Let's go, let's go, let's go now. Fortunately, the time we agreed to meet him hasn't arrived yet."
When the family of four arrived at the Xue family, the three members of the Xue family were already waiting in the living room.
"Hui Xin, this is your daughter Yi Yi. She is so beautiful and has a good temperament. She looks so lovable." Shen Ruixia said.
"Sister Chen, please stop praising her. This girl is shy and she will feel embarrassed if you continue to praise her. Besides, your Xue Qian is very pretty, like a Barbie doll. She looks much more sensible than my Yi Yi." Ming Huixin said with a smile.
"Come on, come on, sit down and talk, don't stand." Shen Ruixia said.
“Wenyu, Yiyi, this is your Uncle Xue, and this is your Uncle Xue’s lover, Aunt Shen, calling someone.” Liang Jianyi introduced.
Liang Wenyu and the other person politely greeted the Xue couple, and then they sat down to talk.
From the moment Liang Yiyi entered her house, Xue Qian stuck to her and was very affectionate.
"I was saying that I would introduce these two children to each other today, but I didn't expect that they already knew each other. Now that's great, Yi Yi can come and play with Qianqian when she is free in the future. She doesn't have many friends in the compound, which is quite boring." Shen Ruixia said with a smile.
"Don't worry, Auntie. Even if you didn't tell me that you were free, I would still come to play with her. I will definitely bother you in the future." Liang Yiyi said politely.
Shen Ruixia looks very gentle, of course, this is when she doesn't speak. As soon as she starts talking, the boldness unique to people from the Northeast is immediately revealed, making people feel that she is very easy to get along with.
"By the way, how old is Yiyi this year? She seems a little younger than my Xue Qian!" Shen Ruixia said.
"She is seventeen years old this year. Where is your Qianqian?" Ming Huixin asked.
"Well, Qianqian is one year older than her. Qianqian, as her elder sister, you must take good care of your younger sister!"
Xue Qian nodded rapidly and responded quickly.
The women in the room were chatting, and the three grown men had no chance to get a word in. Xue Zhihe found Liang Wenyu quite pleasing to the eye, and couldn't help but ask him some more questions. Liang Wenyu answered a few questions that he could, and Liang Jianyi also helped to explain a few things, so the three of them had a lively chat.
"Yiyi, is your second brother usually so quiet?" Xue Qian leaned over and asked softly in Liang Yiyi's ear.
"Well, my second brother is like this. He doesn't talk much at home." Liang Yiyi said after thinking about it.
