"Why are you scolding me?"
Li Xu chuckled, "I'll give you a hint. Think about what most girls younger than you are like nowadays, and then think about it yourself. Once you think it through, you'll understand."
Generally speaking, girls develop earlier than boys.
Judging from Xiao Jianping's age, the disaster happened just in time for the younger girls to reach puberty.
How can you grow if you can’t even eat?
Unless the family is well-off and can eat more good food in the early stages of the disaster to make up for it.
As for this year, it would be good enough if everyone can ensure that they don’t starve to death.
This results in most girls younger than him looking like bean sprouts...
Wait until the disaster is over next year.
Considering Xiao Jianping's age, he is likely to get married soon.
If his family agrees to his request to find a partner.
It is conceivable what kind of wife he will probably marry in the end.
Such people can only be described as beasts.
Xiao Jianping scratched his head. "Girls younger than me? Most of them are skinny and petite. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"Are you sure you want to marry a girl like this?"
"Is there anything wrong?"
Li Xu: ...
beast.
Seeing Li Xu looking at him with a very strange look, Xiao Jianping couldn't help but asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Li Xu retracted his gaze, then shook his head and said, "I'm telling you, you don't understand either."
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the scene when he had a blind date with Du Hong.
If Du Hong was also that thin and small, he would definitely disagree.
Fortunately, her family was well-off and was less affected by the disaster in the early stages, and she was also a little older.
It really took a while to develop well.
So although Du Hong was very thin at that time, there was no problem with her in other aspects.
In addition, after getting engaged to me, he received a lot of food from me.
Now it looks even better.
As he thought about it, Li Xu unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.
This stunned Xiao Jianping. "You didn't even tell me, and you said I didn't understand. Besides, what's so funny about this?"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that this scene seemed familiar.
I seem to have said the same thing to Li Xu before...
"Ah? Did I laugh?" Li Xu had no idea that he laughed.
Without waiting for Xiao Jianping's response, he continued, "Forget it, let's talk about your family's secret."
Li Xu didn't want to try to change his ideas, so he could only change the subject.
Hearing this, Xiao Jianping immediately put everything else behind him and asked anxiously, "Tell me what you guessed?"
"Your family's secret is probably related to finding a partner. This person is probably your brother, the eldest son in your family. He deceived your grandmother about finding a partner, which led to very serious consequences. That's why your grandmother was stimulated and developed the habit of eavesdropping."
Li Xu had met Xiao's mother before.
Although I don’t know her exact age, I can basically tell that she is older than Sun Xiu.
In more than a year, he never heard that Xiao Jianping had an older brother.
Xiao Jianping's age didn't seem like the eldest son in the family, which led him to make some guesses.
There is another aspect that can prove this conjecture.
You should know that Xiao Jianping's parents both have stable jobs, and their units are very good.
No matter how incompetent he is, it should not be a big problem to arrange a less stable job for his eldest son.
But what about Xiao Jianping?
In fact, it is equivalent to a temporary worker.
This is not the treatment of being the eldest son.
So we speculate that this situation occurred because his parents used their resources on older children.
This way everything makes sense.
After hearing the guess, Xiao Jianping was stunned.
After a long while, he asked, "I didn't say anything. How did you guess?"
It seems that I guessed right.
Li Xu repeated the speculation in his mind and continued, "I also guessed that you actually don't care about your brother's affairs, but he made your grandmother develop the habit of eavesdropping, and she only eavesdropped on you. This is the real reason why you don't want to mention him.
The so-called family secret is probably because your brother did something that embarrassed you, so you don't want it to be revealed."
This time, Xiao Jianping didn't react in any special way. Instead, he asked, "Why do you think the one above me is my brother and not my sister?"
"Because it's impossible. If the one above you is your sister, she will not do that unless she is mentally ill and doesn't want her family to support her in the future." Li Xu said firmly.
He had considered this possibility before.
But it was quickly rejected.
Just like he said, will a woman who has a falling out with her family have a good life after she gets married?
Even if I have a job, my in-laws will still bully me however they want.
Unless she is confident that she can find a husband-in-law family that treats her as well as Qin Hua.
But to be honest, the probability is really too small.
"What if she really is mentally ill?"
"Come on, forget it. Without saying anything else, I just want to ask you, as the eldest son in the family, your current job is nowhere near being officially hired. Don't you have any thoughts in your mind?
Although I don't know your family's past situation, I believe there must be people in the supply and marketing cooperative who know. If they knew you were the eldest son, and your sister had a stable job while you were working a job that no one else looked down upon, the news would have spread a long time ago."
Xiao Jianping gave a thumbs up and said with emotion, "Old Li, I now think you are the smartest among the three of us."
"Of course." Li Xu smiled complacently, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Don't worry, today we've talked about what we said. Once we leave your house, I'll pretend nothing happened. Your family won't hear anything about this outside."
I've almost taken the Xiao family's underwear off, so I have to give them an explanation, right?
"I know you're tight-lipped, so I trust you." Xiao Jianping nodded, a smile on his face. "Actually, what you just said is basically correct, but I guessed wrong on two points."
He knew that Li Xu loved to join in the fun and to inquire about all kinds of gossip.
But he keeps his mouth shut and never says anything he shouldn't.
This is recognized by everyone in the car team.
"Guessed two wrong? Tell me quickly." Li Xu said quickly.
"Actually, I have two older brothers. My grandmother's affairs are not only related to my eldest brother, but my second brother is also involved."
You know what, Li Xu really didn't expect this.
"What about the second mistake?"
"The real reason I don't want to mention them isn't because my grandma overheard me, but because I get mad when I mention those two bastards."
Li Xu: ?
"That's not right. That should be three mistakes. You're so angry at them, but don't you care about what they did?"
"That's right, I'm targeting people, not things." Xiao Jianping grinned.
