"Okay, Lao Xiao, if this works out, I'll treat you to a good meal later."
Xiao Jianping nodded and instructed, "Talk to Sister Mei about it. If she thinks it's a good idea, just make the deal. My dad said this person is very popular right now."
Li Xu knew that the shameful thing he said before was because of this.
Nowadays, there are few people willing to be a son-in-law, but there are many families without male heirs.
As a result, such people become very popular.
If word gets out, a lot of people will definitely flock to it.
Thinking of this, Li Xu pondered and said, "Old Xiao, are you sure you can make it in time the day after tomorrow?"
"Don't worry. I heard the news from my dad yesterday, and I told him to keep this guy for a few days, no matter what, until Sister Mei has finished her review."
"Does he know Uncle Xiao?"
"I don't know him, but his stepfather and my dad are colleagues."
"Huh?" Li Xu was stunned. "He's a colleague of Uncle Xiao's, so his family should be well off. How could he be so unacceptable about having to support another person?"
"This story is quite complicated. Originally, he and his father both had jobs. Later, his father died in an accident in 1957 and passed the job to him and his ex-wife to have a son.
But who would have thought that his son had always resented him for marrying Yang Dong's mother, so after taking over, he severed ties with him and moved out of the house;
In 1958, the factory expanded its recruitment. At that time, Yang Dong was fourteen years old and could already work, but he was reluctant to spend money to find a job for his stepson. The age difference between him and the son born to Yang Dong's mother was too big, so he missed this opportunity.
Now his biological son is of age, but he can't find a job, so he has to earn money to support a large family. With one more mouth to feed, his pressure increases, and this is how it is now."
Good job.
Li Xu exclaimed in his heart, "What a great guy!"
If we find someone to process these things, there will be absolutely no problem in making a TV series...
Of course, this has nothing to do with him, he just listens for fun.
"Old Xiao, thank Uncle Xiao for me later."
"It's too formal to say thank you. Our two families are still relatives."
This kinship was based on the theories of the sisters Hu Guilan and Hu Cuifen. Li Xu couldn't deny it, so he could only smile and say, "Even if they are relatives, I still have to thank them."
Seeing that he insisted, Xiao Jianping had no choice but to agree.
After finishing the business, the two chatted about family matters for a while and returned to the car just before departure.
This business trip took two days.
In the evening, Li Xu returned home and told his family about what happened.
After hearing this, Sun Xiu's eyes lit up. "Xiaomei has been going on blind dates for so long, but this is the first time she's met a man who's willing to marry into her family. Girl, you have to take it seriously tomorrow. If it works out, let's do what Xiaoxu said and settle the matter right then and there. What do you think?"
Li Mei didn't even think about it and responded directly, "No problem."
Now Sun Xiu was even happier and cheered loudly.
You know, this is the first time Li Mei has agreed so readily since she started dating, which makes her feel that she is not far from success.
the next day.
After dinner, everyone in the Li family chatted while paying attention to what was happening outside the door.
After more than half an hour, there was a knock on the gate.
This sound was like a signal, and everyone stood up from their stools and walked out.
When I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I saw two people standing next to Xiao Jianping, a man and a woman.
The man lowered his head, so people couldn't see his appearance, but they could see his clothes clearly.
His clothes were patched up and didn't fit him well.
This made Li Xu speechless.
There's no way around it. It's hard not to feel this way when a man wears clothes that show his belly during a blind date...
As for the middle-aged woman next to her, her clothes look much more decent.
But her face looked extremely calm, as if she didn't care.
It was only with Xiao Jianping's introduction that Li Xu realized that this middle-aged woman was Yang Dong's mother.
As a fellow mother, Sun Xiu had no interest in chatting with her when she saw her like this. After inviting her into the house, she started chatting with Xiao Jianping about family matters.
In order to avoid a dull moment, Li Jiakang had no choice but to bite the bullet and chat with the woman in a few words.
Li Mei took Yang Dong to sit on the other side and talk.
Of course, it was mainly Li Mei who was talking and Yang Dong who was listening, occasionally making a "hmm" sound.
After a while, Li Mei couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily, "Don't leave me alone to talk. People who don't know would think you are mute."
After a moment of silence, Yang Dong whispered, "I don't know what to say."
"Don't you want to know about my situation?"
"That's not necessary."
This made people feel sad. Li Mei sighed and said, "Forget it. Lift your head up so I can see what you look like."
Yang Dong slowly raised his head, and at the same time he saw Li Mei's appearance clearly, and then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
To be honest, he never expected Li Mei to be so pretty.
As for Li Mei, after seeing Yang Dong's thick eyebrows and big eyes, she couldn't help but nodded, "He looks pretty good, but I don't know what he's like in other aspects."
"Didn't you ask that just now?"
"With your umm-ah and ah-ah responses, who knows what you mean?"
"Ask again and I'll answer you properly."
"I don't want to bother you any more. Now I just want to ask you one question. If we get married, can you promise to treat me well for the rest of my life?"
