Li Pandi's expression changed again and again, and finally returned to calm.
Li Laidie had been sewing clothes and didn't notice Li Pandie's expression.
Aunt Xu did not leave. She saw Li Panddy's expression in the outer room and heard what her daughter-in-law said. She sighed and shook her head.
The reason why she agreed to Xu Daming marrying Li Laidi was not only because the two children had a good relationship, but more importantly because of Li Laidi's personality. She was the kind of person who was carefree and had no scheming, while Li Pandi was just the opposite. She was too stubborn, but taciturn and had a lot on her mind.
She brought Li Pandi here this time because she couldn't bear to see the child ruined, but she wanted to remind her son that it was okay to introduce a partner to Li Pandi, but she must get her consent, and her family could not have the final say.
When Xu Daming came back at noon, Aunt Xu pulled Xu Daming aside and whispered her thoughts to him.
"Mom, I know about this. Don't worry about it." Xu Daming said perfunctorily and wanted to go in.
"You kid, you got impatient just because I said this. I'm telling you, marriage is a lifelong thing. Don't get too involved. Pan Di is your sister-in-law, not your biological sister."
Aunt Xu was a little angry.
Xu Daming immediately became honest and said, "Mother, look at what you said. Lai Di must have discussed this matter with her sister. Can I force her to marry?"
"I really want to do this for Pan Di's own good. Even though Captain Lin is old, there are many people who want to marry him. The two children are not too old either. Pan Di can raise them and they will be filial to her in the future."
Aunt Xu looked around the room, pulled Xu Daming to another room, and lowered her voice: "Tell me the truth, why did you find such an old man for Pan Di?"
Although the other party's conditions sound good, he is much older than Li Pandi and is not suitable. What's more, Pandi is a country girl. As a head of a regiment, why should he choose a country girl instead of anyone else?
"Mom, Captain Lin is just a little older, but his conditions are much better than Pan Di's." Xu Daming's tone was full of helplessness.
Aunt Xu patted Xu Daming on the shoulder and said, "Don't fool your mother. Tell me the truth."
"Mom, I'm telling the truth. Many people have introduced girls to Captain Lin, but he wanted to find someone who could take care of his son, so he didn't agree. Look, although Pan Di is young, she takes care of her younger siblings at home and does a good job of housework. Doesn't she quite meet Captain Lin's requirements?"
"Besides, Captain Lin's family already has two sons, so he has no idea whether Pan Di can have a child. Even if Pan Di does, he will be happy too."
What Xu Daming said was all true. The only thing he didn't say was that he and Captain Lin had become brothers-in-law, and that Captain Lin would promote him.
Aunt Xu looked at Xu Daming seriously, and when she found out that he didn't notice anything, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"I see your wife is very sad about this girl. If anything goes wrong with this marriage, be careful or she will quarrel with you."
Xu Daming waved his hand nonchalantly: "Mom, I have explained everything to Lai Di clearly, and asked her to talk to Pan Di, so I arranged the blind date."
"That's good. After Pan Di gets married, you two should hurry up and have another child. Wei Wei will be too lonely at home alone." Aunt Xu started to urge her to have a baby again.
"Okay, okay, I got it." Xu Daming pushed Aunt Xu into the house good-temperedly.
The two sisters of the Li family were very skilled. By the evening, they had finished making the clothes. After Li Pandi combed her hair and put on the new clothes, her temperament immediately improved.
Li Lai Di nodded: "Our Pan Er looks really good in this dress."
Aunt Xu and Xu Daming also nodded.
Li Pandi looked at herself in a small mirror and was very satisfied. This was the first time she wore such beautiful clothes. But when she thought of Captain Lin's age and his two sons, the smile on her face faded a little.
She wanted to say that she didn't want to go on the blind date, but her sister and brother-in-law both looked satisfied, so she didn't dare to say anything and just took off her skirt reluctantly.
Xu Daming and Li Laidie are talking.
"I have already made an appointment with Captain Lin to meet at the state-owned restaurant in the city at noon tomorrow. Otherwise, there will be too many people in the family compound and it would be bad if someone saw us."
"Okay, I'll take Pan'er there tomorrow."
"Well, go there soon. Captain Lin said that if you both like each other, he wants you to get married soon. His two sons are now unattended, so if Pan Di marries there soon, she can be the head of the family."
"Brother Daming, did Captain Lin's wife really die in childbirth?"
Xu Daming glared and said, "How could this be false? Many people know about this."
Li Lai Di sighed, "She was already the wife of the regiment leader, but I didn't expect that she would die while giving birth, not even leaving behind her child."
"What are you talking about? If she were alive, your sister would still marry him. Don't worry, Captain Lin is a very good person. Pan Di is your biological sister. I will definitely find a good partner for her."
"Yeah, I know Daming is good."
When Li Pandi came to her senses, she heard the last few words and suppressed her reluctance. Her sister and brother-in-law were only thinking about her own good, so she really shouldn't say anything more.
The next morning at seven o'clock, Li Laidi and Li Pandi finished their breakfast and went to the city.
Although the scheduled time was 11:00 noon, Li Laidi wanted to buy two hair flowers for Li Pandi, so she went there early.
Qi Mengmeng slept until 8:30 in the morning, ate the breakfast made by Gu Guizhi, rode her bike to the department store.
She rushed to knit the sweater last night and would take it to the post office to mail it today, then go to the department store to buy some things and then go to Su Mei to see how the four-piece sets were selling.
When Su Mei saw Qi Mengmeng, her attitude was as friendly as if she saw RMB.
"Meng Meng, Meng Meng, come here quickly. I'm telling you, all four sets are sold out. Do you have any more? Give me some more. There are still many people who want to buy them."
Although Qi Mengmeng guessed that Su Mei had sold them, she still praised her when she heard her say that. When she heard that she wanted more, she shook her head and said, "Sister Su Mei, I asked in advance. These four-piece sets are very rare. It will probably take another half a month if you want them."
"Half a month?" Su Mei was not angry but happy. "Half a month is not too late. Winter is coming soon. More people will get married in half a month. Such a four-piece suit will sell better, and the price will only be higher."
Qi Mengmeng looked at Su Mei's positive attitude and couldn't help but remind her: "Sister Su Mei, it's best if the people you look for are all acquaintances, and you have to be careful."
Su Mei's face was full of emotion: "Meng Meng, don't worry, I'm looking for reliable people, no one will tell anyone."
When Qi Mengmeng heard her say this, she stopped commenting.
