Chapter 1501 No One Can Hide
When Ji Xiangyu and Zhao Meiwen left, Ji Xiangyu was already staggering when walking. After all, he was a kid who hadn't even graduated with a master's degree yet. He drank too much and only cared about his face, regardless of his alcohol tolerance.
So Li Ye asked, "Meiwen, is it okay for Xiaoji to ride the motorcycle like this? Or I can take him back!"
While Zhao Meiwen was holding a helmet for Ji Xiangyu, she said nonchalantly, "It's okay, Xiaoye. It's not far. A gust of wind from riding a motorcycle will sober you up."
Ji Xiangyu also smiled and said: "It's okay, big brother, I can drink well, I'm not drunk"
Li Ye was speechless now. He had to take care of his pride, so he could only tell Zhao Meiwen: "Then be careful on the road! Motorcycles are not cars, and the speed limit is not to exceed 40 km/h."
"Oh, Ono-kun, I get it. You're becoming more and more like my mom."
"Buzz~"
Zhao Meiwen responded to Li Ye perfunctorily, stepped on the accelerator and drove away, not taking Li Ye's words seriously at all.
But just before Li Ye sensed danger and was about to scold her, she slowed down again.
"Chuckle, chuckle~"
A string of silver bell-like laughter came over, as if it was teasing Li Ye cunningly.
"You little brat need to be cleaned up"
Li Ye laughed and cursed angrily, but he was very relieved in his heart.
Because ever since Zhao Meiwen broke up with her "ex" two years ago, she seemed to be covered in a layer of haze and has not been sunny for a long time.
And looking at her now, all the past should be in the past.
Girls these days are similar to boys a few decades later. As long as the boys are gentle to them, don't get drunk or swear, and are diligent and loyal, they are basically satisfied. If they break up suddenly, they cannot accept it because of the emotional pain.
But decades later, the situation has really changed. Everything is reversed. They often threaten to "break up". But if a girl knits a sweater for a boy, he will probably be very touched.
Unfortunately, there are not many girls who can knit scarves, let alone sweaters.
The loss of a skill must be because it has no use. When a strong man doesn't need warmth, why would he knit a scarf?
"Grandma, I'm going back first! I'll leave the car here with Grandpa and I'll drive it tomorrow morning."
Li Ye had been drinking, so he didn't plan to drive. After all, the two courtyards were only two streets apart, and it would only take a few minutes to walk there.
But grandma yelled, "Stop right there! You cook at your father-in-law's house, but can't you wash the dishes at home? Wash the dishes before you leave."
"Hey hey hey, I'll do it right away."
Li Ye hurried back to wash the dishes, and then his grandmother Wu Juying began to nag in his ear: "Go back and talk to Xiaoyu, don't just care about your cousin's lifelong event, but also pay attention to the other three sisters,
Xiaoruo, Xiaojuan, and Xiaoying are already grown up, but they still don't have a boyfriend. On the other hand, Meiwen has already dated three men. Your three younger sisters are not bad either!"
"Grandma, I've discussed this with Xiaojuan. She promised to bring a partner home before she turns 25. As for Xiaoruo, she's more opinionated. Marriage freedom is important these days, so I can't force a match."
"Twenty-five? Why didn't you say thirty-five?"
When Wu Juying heard what Li Ye said, she immediately jumped up in anger and poked Li Ye's forehead with her finger.
"She said marriage is free, so it's free? Do you have a brain? Did Meiwen's previous boyfriend have a free marriage? He almost got sold, don't you know? If they're well-matched, even if they're not the best, they're definitely not bad at all."
Li Ye was poked on the forehead by his grandmother and didn't dare to refute at all.
Although this old guerrilla fighter had been in a free love relationship with Li Zhongfa before, she was so old and had eaten more salt than the little kid had eaten rice, so she must have been persistent and determined.
So Li Ye could only speed up the washing of dishes and then flee.
He and Wen Leyu were also in a free relationship, so his attempt to persuade those younger sisters to go on blind dates quickly and follow their parents' arrangements was really not very convincing.
When Li Ye returned to his home, he saw his three sisters playing with their son as soon as he entered the door.
Seeing Li Ye enter the room, Li Ying was the first to run over and ask, "Brother, have you met Sister Meiwen's boyfriend? What does he look like? How tall is he?"
Li Juan also came over and asked, "Brother, I heard from Grandma that Sister Meiwen found a master's degree in medicine. Does that mean that everyone in the family will be doctors in the future?"
Fu Yiruo was not very curious, but she also looked at Li Ye. It was obvious that she also liked this kind of gossip.
Li Ye said helplessly: "You guys are so curious, why don't you go over and take a look tonight? Everyone said they had something to do."
Li Juan grinned, smiled awkwardly and said nothing.
Her younger sister, Fu Yiruo, was more direct: "We are afraid that grandma will scold us again. You don't know that these days, grandma always gets anxious and angry about our personal problems, and we dare not talk back."
"So you just hide!"
"Hmm~"
Fu Yiru, Li Juan and Li Ying all nodded, indicating that Li Ye guessed correctly this time.
Li Ye was a little amused and helpless. His three younger sisters were afraid that their grandmother would arrange marriages for them, so they wanted to know what Ji Xiangyu looked like, but they didn't dare to go near their grandmother tonight to get scolded.
"Alas~"
Li Ye sighed and said, "You guys are hiding here in peace, but grandma caught me and scolded me, saying that your sister-in-law and I don't care about you three.
Grandma said that Meiwen has started to meet her parents, but you haven't made any move, forcing me to solve your marriage problems as soon as possible."
Li Ying blinked and asked suspiciously, "Brother, you're not going to stand with grandma, are you? I hear something's wrong with your tone."
Li Ye looked at Fu Yiru and patiently explained, "Grandma is an experienced person after all. She knows that the sooner you find a partner, the better. Look at me and your sister-in-law. We met each other in our prime years and fully enjoyed each other's youth."
Li Ye and Wen Leyu were only 18 years old when they met. Now they are in their 30s, and they are still in love with each other and are 100% satisfied with each other, so this is the only "evidence of premature love" that Li Ye can show off.
But Li Ying immediately retorted, "But brother, didn't you and sister-in-law have a free love relationship? If you can meet each other, why can't we meet the right one?"
I knew it was like that.
Li Ye frowned and said, "Your sister-in-law and I are extremely lucky. We met when we were 18 years old, and you are both over 20 now."
Li Juan interrupted Li Ye and said with great grievance, "The country now advocates late marriage and late childbearing. Big brother, you are also a Party member. How can you be so feudal and not support the country's policies?"
Fu Yiruo also said with a smile: "Brother, you don't want to arrange a marriage, do you? That is not in line with the current civilized spirit."
"How dare you interrupt me? I... I really want to break your legs."
Li Ye felt that his dignity as the "big brother" was violated, and he immediately became furious.
It's not like he wants to exchange the girls for a betrothal gift of 388,000 yuan, and he even prepared astronomically generous dowries for them. How can it be an arranged marriage?
At this moment, Xiaodouer at the door suddenly shouted, "Grandma, you're back? What delicious food are you holding?"
The three girls who were chattering excitedly suddenly looked towards the door in horror.
"Oh no, grandma is here."
"Isn't grandma going to accompany grandpa today?"
"How should I know? Brother, please help us cover up. Let's hide for three."
The three girls were just speaking to Li Ye with confidence, but now they all looked pale and ran around in panic.
But before they could run to the backyard to find a place to hide, grandma pinched her waist and shouted in the front yard: "Li Ye, where are those three little girls? Make them come out!"
Fu Yiruo, Li Juan and Li Ying all looked at Li Ye. Li Juan even made a "hush" gesture anxiously because she was the one who was being urged the most.
But Li Ye said helplessly: "Grandma was a guerrilla fighter. You want to hide? Are you better at hiding than her?"
“.”
A minute later, the three girls stood side by side in the yard and were forced to accept Wu Juying's lecture.
"I've seen Meiwen's boyfriend today. He's a top-notch guy. How are you any worse than Meiwen? Is it her looks? Or her education?"
"I'm telling you, starting next week, everyone must go on a blind date once a month. If you don't want to go on a blind date, go find one yourself.
I don't ask you to marry into a wealthy family, as long as you are honest and down-to-earth. You must grab someone who is ambitious like your brother-in-law Yang Yumin."
Li Ye watched his three younger sisters lowering their heads and staring at their toes in a daze, as if he was back in his previous life when he was being "besieged and urged to get married" by his family.
Li Ye was also very impatient at that time. He just felt that he still had plenty of time to waste. There is always someone better out there, and things will work out when the time comes.
But now I think about it, I just feel that I was young and energetic.
Just like the three younger sisters now, Fu Yiruo might be able to be more open-minded, but the other two think that Wu Juying is old-fashioned.
This is also a common phenomenon among girls of this era. When the new era comes, all the old customs seem to carry a decadent atmosphere.
Family conditions and parental positions are not as important as "pleasing to the eye" and "going with the flow".
But Li Ye had experienced the entire adolescence and middle age in his previous life, so he certainly knew that the criticized "arranged marriage" was definitely not without merit.
A child's character is closely related to his parents and the environment in which he grows up.
Besides, grandma doesn't discriminate against the poor and favors the rich. As long as the family background is clean, the student is down-to-earth and kind, it's enough. And when she meets a student like Yang Yumin who came from a poor family but was admitted to Peking University, she will be a hot commodity that must be won.
Li Ye felt that it was not excessive. After all, he had raised his sisters to what they are now and prepared a lot of dowries. He couldn't just find a single-haired boy for them, right?
And grandma allowed them to find it themselves.
But among the vast majority of people, people with average IQs are a minority after all. Do you expect to find someone like Yang Yumin by searching for a needle in a haystack? The probability is even lower than finding gold sand in a swimming pool, okay?
Wu Juying forced Li Ye to find partners for her sisters, and she must have been screening them for a purpose. Although there was no guarantee that she would find a gold mine, at least she would not let them fall into a trap.
Xiao Douer came to Li Ye's side and asked in a low voice: "Dad, why is grandma so angry?"
Li Ye hugged his daughter in his arms and sighed, "Grandma is old now. I hope to make my last effort to make my aunts happy."
