Liu Gang's sudden change in attitude left everyone stunned, and they didn't know what he meant.
Master Wang asked hesitantly, "Old Liu, didn't you just say we could go together sometime? Why did you change your mind now?"
These days, factories and units are open all year round, but anyone with a job basically visits relatives and friends at night.
Many families even close their doors very late at night, for fear that relatives and friends may make unexpected visits.
So what Liu Gang said about it being inconvenient at night was pure bullshit, he didn't believe this reason.
Liu Gang said seriously, "We are all in our forties or fifties. If the head of the Du family is not our age, how will we interact with him?
If it were our age, how would Xiaoxu, Xiaosu, and Xiaoxiao deal with each other? So I think it’s better to forget it, so as not to make us all feel uncomfortable. "
Everyone looked at each other, and then Master Song said unhappily, "That's not that difficult. If the age difference between you and the other person is too big, wouldn't it be enough to just be friends regardless of age difference?"
"But what if the other person is a woman?"
It's true, if the other party is really a woman, it would be difficult for them to go to her house.
After thinking for a while, Su Weidong said, "Master Liu, how about you ask around first? If the person in charge of the Du family is a woman, we won't go. If it's a man, we can go there. What do you think?"
Liu Gang not only didn't answer, but instead asked a seemingly irrelevant question, "You all have dealt with Xiaoxu's father. Do you think he is the head of the Li family?"
Hearing this, Li Xu's face darkened.
He knew what Liu Gang was going to say.
Master Qi and others recalled the scenes of their interactions with Li Jiakang in previous years, and then nodded and said "yes".
Liu Gang shook his head. "You're wrong. Xiaoxu's mother is actually the head of the Li family. It's just that few outsiders know about this except for those close to them. So even if I ask around, the person I find out is not necessarily the real head of the Du family."
Sun Xiu gave Li Jiakang a lot of face in public, acting as if he was the head of the family.
So few of their colleagues who had worked with them for many years knew that Sun Xiucai was the real person in charge.
Liu Gang told this story to express that what he had heard might not be the truth, and to persuade everyone to give up the idea of getting to know him.
It was not uncommon for a woman to be the head of the family in this era, especially since everyone knew that the Li family was doing very well. They not only had many workers, but even a college student.
So when they heard this, they not only did not laugh at Li Jiakang's idea, but were very envious of him for finding such a daughter-in-law.
At the same time, they also understood what Liu Gang meant. In order to avoid trouble, they thought about it and decided to drop the matter.
Then everyone started talking about other topics.
After lunch, Liu Gang pulled Li Xu into the car and stared at him without saying a word.
Li Xu felt uneasy when he was looked at, and quickly said, "Uncle Liu, if you have something to say, just say it directly. Stop looking at me like that, it's creepy."
Liu Gang sighed, his expression showing deep sorrow. "It's faded. The feelings have faded. You've been hiding things from me."
In fact, when he suddenly changed his words, Li Xu knew what he must have thought of. Now he was even more convinced after hearing this. So, without waiting for him to clarify the matter, he explained with a smile, "Uncle Liu, if this were my family's business, I would definitely not hide it from you. But this is my father-in-law's family's business, so it's really inconvenient to tell you. Please understand my nephew and treat you to a good meal tomorrow at noon, okay?"
Liu Gang didn't respond, just looked at him quietly.
Li Xu knew that he was dissatisfied with the quantity, so he stretched out two fingers and asked tentatively, "How about two meals?"
Seeing that Liu Gang didn't say anything, he steeled himself and said through gritted teeth, "Three meals, no more."
"make a deal."
Liu Ganggang now showed a satisfied expression. "You kid, you're still hiding things from me. Do I think I'm such a talkative person? Besides, the whole county knows about your father-in-law's family affairs. Even if you tell me directly, what can I ask you?"
That's true. The news that spread included almost all the information except for the Du family's personnel.
For example, when Du Qing took things from her parents' home to subsidize her in-laws, the Du family broke off relations with her, and then she asked her parents to take back their decision. All these things are included in it.
Although it is not very detailed, the content is absolutely true.
To be honest, Li Xu found it unbelievable when he heard the news from the people in the car team.
Isn’t it said that information becomes more distorted the more it is transmitted? Why hasn’t this information changed at all?
"Whether you ask or not is one thing, and whether I tell or not is another." Li Xu defended with a bitter face.
Liu Gang glanced at him and didn't continue the topic. Instead, he asked, "Did your father-in-law handle these two groups of people from the Mu family?"
"It's not him, it's my uncle."
Liu Gang thought for a moment, "The one who has been demobilized?"
"Um."
"No wonder he acts like a great general. By the way, I heard someone was injured in your father-in-law's family yesterday. Who was injured?"
"My second uncle."
"So, it was your brother-in-law who broke those people's bones?"
"And his wife."
Liu Gang smacked his lips. "These two are quite good at fighting. Are they just practicing at home when they have nothing to do?"
Until now, he had never heard anything about martial arts from Li Xu, so the sparring he was talking about was a fight between the couple...
Li Xu was a little speechless and said the words that the Du family used to deal with the neighbors, "Since my eldest brother-in-law was demobilized, he practiced the moves he learned in the army every day. My younger brother-in-law and his wife thought it was interesting and learned a few moves from him;
