Chapter 456 I Look Like My Second Uncle
However, Ji Yuanyuan didn't dislike it at all and reached out to touch the two children's faces.
Seeing this, Meng Xiaoning scolded, "You two should go wash your hands quickly. You have stained my skirt. You have to compensate me."
Li Nian grew up drinking her milk, and she also stayed there for a while on and off.
So, she treats Li Nian the same way as she treats Li Xiang.
Praise when it is due and criticize when it is due.
Qin Xiaomin was very generous about this matter and was not angry at all.
However, the two children were not afraid of Meng Xiaoning at all.
Li Xiang said in a baby voice: "Pay! Use my New Year's money to buy my sister a new dress!"
Li Nian was not to be outdone: "Use mine to buy them. I have a lot of New Year's money! I will buy a lot for my sister!"
"I have more! I'm buying it for my sister!"
Meng Xiaoning laughed angrily: "Why don't you go wash your hands? Do you want to be beaten?"
Seeing that Meng Xiaoning was angry, the two children quickly ran to the water tank.
Li Nian stood on tiptoe, took the ladle and tried to scoop water himself.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan hurried forward to help them get some water and wash their hands.
Ji Ziang had already entered the house. Seeing Gong Wenbo, he excitedly stepped forward and said, "Uncle Gong."
Ever since Gong Wenbo resigned from Qin Junshan, the two have never seen each other again.
Gong Wenbai was mixed in with a group of people and was feeling a little restrained. When he saw Ji Ziang, he felt relieved.
"Zi'ang has grown a lot taller!" he said with a smile.
Li Yong next to him joked, "Not only has he grown a lot taller, he's also more handsome! I used to suspect that when my sister gave birth, the hospital gave birth to the wrong baby!"
Ji Ziang has grown up in the past two years and has become more handsome.
How could Ji Ziang not hear the joke in Li Yong's words? He was not angry, but said with a smile: "It is said that nephews resemble their uncles. My eldest brother looks like his eldest uncle, so I look like my second uncle!"
Li Yong was stunned for a moment, then rolled up his sleeves and said, "You little bastard, you are slandering me!"
Ji Ziang took a step back, Qin Xiaomin protected him behind her, and said with a smile: "What's wrong, he is right, you are a little bit behind your elder brother."
Li Lei was standing nearby, feeling a little embarrassed by the compliments.
Ji Ziang made a face at Li Yong.
Everyone in the room burst into laughter.
After laughing, Qin Xiaomin looked at Gong Wenbo: "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for what happened to my mother back then. If it weren't for you and Miaomiao, I don't know what I would do."
That year, Niu Ailan's operation was very successful and she is now recovering well.
After that incident, her temper became much calmer.
His attitude towards Li Yong has also improved a lot.
Gong Wenbo looked at Li Miao and said, "I will definitely help Miao Miao's relatives. But I didn't help much. It was just that Auntie was lucky and arrived just in time."
Qin Xiaomin also looked at Li Miao: "Our Miao Miao has good taste and has taken a liking to you. You just have to wait and enjoy the good life in the future."
Li Miao was sitting next to Gong Wenbo. Hearing this, he looked at Gong Wenbo with some happiness.
With two chefs, Li Yong and Zhang Kun, the dinner was naturally very sumptuous.
At the dinner table, they naturally talked about the highlight of the day: the marriage of Li Miao and Gong Wenbai.
"The house has been bought. It's in City B. It's a three-bedroom apartment of over 130 square meters. It's not big, but it's enough for the two of us for now. When I can afford it in the future, I'll move to a bigger one. The house is in both our names. We paid in full, without any loans." Gong Wenbo's attitude was sincere.
"We bought a house in the school district. There are several key junior high schools and high schools nearby. When Miaomiao graduates, we can find a school near home to teach, which will be convenient for commuting to and from get off work."
They had all seen the car, so Gong Wenbo did not introduce it.
"Also, my mother died when I was very young, and my father remarried. I was raised by my grandparents, but they also passed away one after another the year after I joined the army. So, our family doesn't have any complicated relatives. When I got married, not too many people could come to my side."
Gong Wenbai said somewhat embarrassedly.
He left home when he was 18 and basically never went back since then. He also lost contact with many of his relatives.
If we get married, probably only some friends and comrades-in-arms will come to attend.
This was the first time that the Li family knew about these things.
They didn't expect that Gong Wenbo's life experience was so miserable.
They did not feel the slightest bit of disgust towards this, but instead felt a little sorry for Gong Wenbai.
"It's okay. You are married to our Miaomiao, and her family will be your family from now on." Li Yong stretched out his hand, patted Gong Wenbai's shoulder, and said.
Although Gong Wenbai is considered a businessman now, he is actually not very good at speaking.
Since Gong Wenbo has no capable relatives, Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming will have to worry about his marriage.
After all, I have hosted three weddings, including my son’s and daughter’s weddings.
Although Gong Wenbai's situation is special, the necessary procedures must still be followed.
Like engagement, these are essential.
At the dinner table, the Li family members were talking at once about giving reminders, and Gong Wenbai took out a small notebook and wrote it down carefully.
The meal lasted from five o'clock to ten o'clock.
It was hot and there was not enough space at home, so everyone prepared to go back to their own homes and no one drank.
Gong Wenbo opened a hotel in the county. After sending him away, Li Yong and Li Lei discovered Zhang Kun's new car.
"Did you buy this newly?" Li Yong asked in surprise.
Ji Ziang nodded first: "Yes, it's very comfortable to sit on. Second uncle, do you want to try it?"
Li Yong waved his hand: "No, no."
Although he said he didn't need it, his eyes were filled with uncontrollable envy.
Qin Xiaomin was watching from the side and felt a little uncomfortable.
Zhang Kun also drove away with his family.
Only two brothers, Li Yong and Li Lei, were left.
The children were on summer vacation, Meng Xiaoning was unemployed, and Li Lei's family had no plans to return to the city.
Houses in the countryside are all equipped with air conditioners, and living there is no worse than in the city.
"Go slowly on the way back." Li Lei gave an instruction and took his wife and children back to their house in the village.
Li Yong sighed and looked at Qin Xiaomin: "Let's go, let's go home too."
It was getting late and Li Nian had fallen asleep long ago. Qin Xiaomin quietly got into the car holding the child.
Li Yong started the car and the two of them walked towards Qin's house.
There were not many people on the road. Cicadas were chirping in the trees. Li Yong was looking ahead intently.
"I'm sorry for the trouble you've endured over the years, and thank you for your hard work." Qin Xiaomin suddenly said in a low voice.
Their family looks bright and beautiful from the outside, as if they are very rich, but in fact they don't have much money.
His father is a leader after all, but he works for a state-owned enterprise and only earns that much money every month.
Working in this kind of unit has many restrictions and there is no way to do other business to make money.
So, their house is just an empty shell.
