Chapter 156 Blind Date (I)
She looked at Li Yong and said, "The children will probably be up soon. Go check on them and make breakfast for them."
Li Yong seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He quickly went out the door and ran away.
Li Lei stood in the store, looking at Li Xu dejectedly.
There was no one in the store at the moment, so Li Xu spoke bluntly: "What's wrong with you? You've already told her that you're going to replace her at the last minute. What do you think the girl will think? Do you think she's a cabbage? And you two brothers are letting her pick and choose?"
Looking at Li Lei's appearance, she felt so angry that she couldn't speak.
Li Lei shook his head awkwardly: "That's not what I meant, but I don't want to go on a blind date so soon."
"Are you still thinking about Liang Yufang?"
When the name Liang Yufang was mentioned, Li Lei's expression became unnatural for a moment.
"No, I just..." Li Lei denied it, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It's just a temporary thing. I can't get over it."
Li Xu could almost understand Li Lei's thoughts.
After all, for the previous three years, Li Lei had treated Liang Yufang as his official fiancée, and suddenly something like this happened.
Although he handled the situation very decisively, he still found it hard to accept it for a while.
His feelings for Liang Yufang may not be that deep.
However, this incident still had a great impact on him.
"In that case, you should get in touch with other people." Li Xu sighed, "You can't just stay where you are."
Having been in the army for eight years, his ability to accept new things is slightly weaker than that of ordinary people.
"I've already made an appointment with them, I can't stand them up. Besides, don't think too highly of yourself, what if they don't like you!" Li Xu said, "Let's meet them first, they'll be here at ten o'clock, there's still an hour, you should get ready."
Li Lei lowered his head and said nothing.
When Li Yong came over, the three children had already woken up.
The two brothers were doing their homework and Ji Yuanyuan was reading a book.
"Dream of the Red Chamber?" Li Yong flipped open the cover and took a look, then asked in surprise, "Where did you get this book? Can you understand it?"
Ji Yuanyuan didn't even raise her eyelids. "I got it from Grandpa Qin."
There are many books in Qin Junshan's villa. Ji Yuanyuan goes there every weekend and mostly reads books there.
Occasionally she would bring back one or two books to read, and Li Xu never paid any attention to her.
"Do you recognize all the words in it?" Li Yong asked curiously.
When he was in school, his classmate had a copy.
After all, it was one of the Four Great Classical Novels, and he heard that they all described love stories, so he couldn't help but be curious and borrowed it to read.
But I couldn't read any further after just two pages.
Not only is the content difficult to understand, the plot also doesn't appeal to him much. In comparison, he prefers martial arts novels with ups and downs in the plot.
He leaned over to take a look out of curiosity and was even more surprised.
Ji Yuanyuan actually read the original novel, not the translated vernacular version.
"Can you understand it?" Li Yong asked again, and the tone of this sentence was higher than the previous ones.
Obviously he was very surprised!
Ji Yuanyuan sighed, closed the book slowly, and pointed to the dictionary next to him: "If you don't understand a word, you can look it up in the dictionary. If you don't understand it once, you can always understand it after reading it twice!"
In her previous life, she didn't like reading Dream of the Red Chamber either.
I put the book in my space, and several times I made up my mind to read it to the end, but I didn't want to read it after flipping through two pages.
After being reborn, maybe my state of mind has changed.
Books that she couldn't read before now deeply attract her.
Li Yong looked at Ji Yuanyuan, his face full of surprise.
At such a young age, he can keep his composure and read this kind of book. I'm afraid his niece will have great potential in the future!
Li Yong himself is not good at studying, but he still admires those who are good at studying.
Knowledge changes destiny. He is not good at studying, so now he can only farm and cook. He doesn't even dare to say that he likes someone.
Immediately, he stopped disturbing Ji Yuanyuan's study and ran to the kitchen to cook.
After dinner, it was almost half past nine.
Li Yong knew that his sister must not have had breakfast, and he also wanted to see what his eldest brother's blind date looked like, so he took the food and his three nephews and went to the store.
Zhang Kun also came and was busy in the store.
Li Xu finished her meal and it was still ten minutes before ten o'clock. She put away the dishes and told Li Yong, "Help here. Your brother-in-law will take Yuanyuan and the others to Uncle Qin's place later."
As she was speaking, she glanced outside and then a smile appeared on her face.
She came out from behind the cashier counter. Li Yong was standing at the entrance of the station. Li Xu thought he was in the way and reached out to push him aside.
Li Yong was not paying attention and was almost knocked down by Li Xu. He quickly held onto the wall and was saved.
Turning around, Li Xu had already left the store and was chatting with a woman at the door.
Behind the woman, there was a little girl following.
The little girl was wearing a black horn-buttoned coat, a pair of black leather shoes, and gray tights.
There are two pigtails on her head, and there are two cute little strawberries at the end of the pigtails.
Her face was round and red, and her eyes kept glancing into the store.
When she saw Li Lei, she seemed a little shy and quickly shifted her gaze away.
Li Yong looked at it and was a little surprised.
"Hey, brother, it's great, you have to seize the opportunity!" he encouraged Li Lei.
You can tell at first glance that this girl has a good temper. Although she is not pretty, she is very cute.
Li Lei's face was also a little red. Of course, he was either shy or a little embarrassed.
Soon, Li Xu came in.
"Hurry up, didn't you come here by bike? Take Xiaoning to see a movie, have a meal, and go shopping." Li Xu urged, while going behind the cashier, grabbing a few hundred-yuan bills from the cashier and handing them to Li Lei, "Take this money, don't be stingy!"
Li Lei didn't answer, but just muttered quietly: "I have money with me, I don't want your money!"
Before Li Xu could say anything else, Li Yong quickly said, "My brother really brought money. I can prove it!"
Li Xu then gave up and handed the money to Zhang Kun, signaling him to put it back.
"Then you should get out quickly. Don't have a stern face. Smile more and be more enthusiastic when talking to girls." Li Xu pushed Li Lei out the door.
Liang Huimei's daughter's surname is Meng, and her name is Meng Xiaoning. At this moment, she is standing behind Liang Huimei, holding the corner of Liang Huimei's clothes tightly with a pair of small hands, and lowering her head.
Li Lei was pulled out by Li Xu and went to look for his bicycle silently.
Of course Liang Huimei saw how Li Xu stuffed money into Li Lei's pocket just now, and she felt even more satisfied with this family.
He immediately pushed his daughter towards Li Lei and said, "Hurry up, hurry up, you two can have lunch outside at noon."
Meng Xiaoning grabbed her braid nervously.
