184: Deliberately muddying the waters
When Cai Honghua said this, her face was filled with joy, as happy as if she was getting married to a daughter-in-law. Li Xinchun even forgot when was the last time his mother was so happy.
Li Xinchun was also happy from the bottom of his heart, as if he had solved a big problem.
Indeed, aren’t those two brothers the big trouble of their family?
Cai Honghua and Li Dasong, an old couple, had a crazy idea and wanted to find a wife for their stupid son. However, they didn't get a wife, but instead got two brothers-in-law.
I can't drive him away. He keeps staying here and making the house a mess.
The whole family was so worried about this that they couldn't even eat, but they didn't expect that the problem could be solved so easily.
No matter how the two brothers left, why they left without saying goodbye, and why they didn't even ask for money to extort anyone before leaving, in short, this is indeed a huge happy event and should be celebrated!
Li Xinchun said happily:
"By the way, Mom, aren't we going to cook some delicious dishes tonight? Well, how about I invite Chen Ci to come home for dinner?"
Cai Honghua was in high spirits and readily agreed:
"Okay, I'll go call him myself later!"
Li Xinchun didn't expect his mother to agree so readily. He was a little overjoyed. It seemed that his mother was really happy.
This girl named Chen Ci is the young educated youth that Li Xinchun has been thinking about. She comes from the city, is delicate and gentle, speaks softly, and is the kind of girl that every man would like when he sees her.
When Chen Ci first arrived, he couldn't do any work. In addition, life in the company was hard, so he cried every day, and his crying was heartbreaking.
Li Xinchun, who was kind to women, secretly bought some good cigarettes and alcohol, and went to find the captain of the company. He asked the captain to arrange a relatively easy job for Chen Ci, teaching the children in the company.
In this way, Chen Ci finally escaped from the heavy farm work. He no longer had to work in the fields. He only had to teach a group of children to read and write every day.
Because of this incident, the two people became closer. Li Xinchun fell more and more in love with this delicate and soft little educated youth. After several attempts, he finally got the little educated youth. The two began to have a secret relationship.
Gradually, Cai Honghua discovered the relationship between her son and this young educated youth.
Although Cai Honghua also hopes that her son will get married and start a family soon, she does not like this guy named Chen Ci because she thinks this educated youth from the city is too spoiled!
She can't do any housework, let alone work in the fields. I heard that she has a bad temper and gets angry and annoys others easily. Cai Honghua feels that if she marries such a person as her daughter-in-law, there will inevitably be conflicts in the future, so she doesn't agree to her son having any contact with her.
Moreover, Cai Honghua has someone she likes, a female educated youth named Shao Xia in the company. Cai Honghua feels that Shao Xia is much better than Chen Ci. She is straightforward, kind-hearted, strong and very capable.
Cai Honghua really wanted Shao Xia to be her daughter-in-law and wanted to bring the two of them together.
How could Li Xinchun not see what his mother was thinking? He simply told her that he only liked sunken porcelain and didn't want anyone else's!
Without Chen Ci, he would rather be single all his life!
Cai Honghua had no choice but to see her son was so stubborn, but she still refused to agree to her son and Shen Ci's relationship. A tug-of-war began between the mother and son, and because of this, they were often angry with each other.
So when Li Xinchun proposed to invite Chen Ci to his home for dinner and Cai Honghua agreed so readily, Li Xinchun found it incredible.
Could it be that things have taken a turn for the better and his mother has agreed to let him and Shen Ci be together?
Realizing this, Li Xinchun was particularly happy and took the initiative to help with cooking. The mother and son were in rare harmony. This kind of harmonious and joyful atmosphere had not been seen in the family for a long time.
Li Xinchun felt that it was all thanks to the two brothers of the Yu family. If Cai Honghua had not been so happy about the departure of the Yu brothers, she would definitely not have been so happy.
Well done to the two brothers of the Yu family, they left at the perfect time!
Maybe if his mother is happy, he and Shen Ci will be able to succeed!
When it was time to finish work, Li Dasong and Anzi also returned home.
When Li Dasong heard that the two brothers of the Yu family had left, he was skeptical at first. But after he was sure that the two brothers had really left, his face, which had been gloomy for a long time, finally broke into a smile.
He was so happy that he went to the vegetable cellar and took out a bottle of good wine to celebrate tonight.
After the food was cooked, Cai Honghua took off her apron and went to find Chen Ci to come over for dinner.
Li Xinchun was waiting excitedly at home, but when Cai Honghua came back, she brought not only Chen Ci but also the female educated youth named Shao Xia, the one Cai Honghua liked.
Li Xinchun's heart sank, he knew that his mother was not so kind and was deliberately making things difficult for him!
Why did you call Shao Xia over? !
He clearly stated that he likes Chen Ci and absolutely does not like Shao Xia, so why the hell is he trying to muddy the waters?!
Cai Honghua probably guessed what her son was thinking, and said to him in a low voice:
"It wouldn't be good if I only asked Xiao Shen to come over for dinner. People would gossip about it, so I asked Xiao Shao to come over as well."
Li Xinchun’s face looked extremely ugly: Excuses, all excuses!
Who are you afraid of gossiping about?
Couldn't he just invite Chen Ci to his house for dinner openly? Even if outsiders knew about it, so what? Anyway, the relationship between him and Shen Ci had become an open secret in the company. Why would he be afraid of others knowing about it?
He's just deliberately muddying the waters!
Li Xinchun glared at Cai Honghua.
Cai Honghua did not respond and went into the house to greet the two female educated youth.
After the two female educated youth sat down on the kang, Cai Honghua pulled her stupid son Anzi into another room.
Usually when someone comes to the house for dinner, Cai Honghua will call Anzi away. Otherwise, Anzi's silly look with drooling eyes will make people know that he is full, so why would he eat?
This is especially true when two female educated youth came to our house.
The two female educated youth knew this habit of their family, so they were willing to come over for dinner. Otherwise, they would usually avoid that fool.
Li Xinchun felt a surge of anger in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. He had to suppress his anger and sit down on the kang.
There were four people in total, Li Dasong and his son Li Xinchun, and two female educated youth, Chen Ci and Shao Xia.
Chen Ci doesn't talk much and is relatively silent at the dinner table.
Li Xinchun was upset because of his mother's outrageous behavior, and he didn't want to pay attention to others, especially Shao Xia.
So, at the dinner table, it was basically only Shao Xia and Li Dasong talking, talking about things in the company.
Chen Ci and Li Xinchun were exchanging glances and doing some little things secretly. Li Xinchun kept picking up food for Chen Ci, staring at her without even looking at Shao Xia.
Cai Honghua didn't enter the house until the meal was almost over.
As soon as Cai Honghua came in, Shao Xia greeted her:
"Aunt, come and eat too."
Cai Honghua responded with a smile and sat down on the kang, deliberately sitting next to Shao Xia, right next to her.
Li Xinchun rolled his eyes, a trace of contempt flashing through his heart.
Cai Honghua knew her son was upset, but she still chatted with Shao Xia about family matters:
"Xiao Shao, I just went to your dormitory. What are the girls in your dormitory busy with? Why are they all doing needlework?"
