Li Zhaokun said to Wang Yulan, "We need to give these two a heads up. They're always fooling around. When I close my eyes, I won't even be able to see them giving birth."
He was most worried about Li Pei. He was already thirty years old but he didn't even have a girlfriend. His family was a big business, so naturally, they needed a prosperous family.
Wang Yulan said, "What can you do about it? Even his father's words are useless. What can you do? We'll talk about it when the time comes. "
After saying that, she ignored the sulking Li Zhaokun.
Li Lan had just driven the goose to the riverbank when he received a call from Yang Huai.
"Come to the county. I'll treat you guys to a meal."
"Okay." Li Lan naturally didn't decline. Yang Huai must have wanted his girlfriend to blend into their circle.
Yang Huai said, "I've already told Jiawei and Liu Shan. When you guys meet up, come together."
"Got it." Li Lan had just hung up when Liu Shan called. Everyone gathered at the entrance of the village.
He thought that Liu Shan and the others would drive, so he didn't. He changed his clothes, told his grandmother, and left the house.
He Zhou leaned against the car. When he saw Li Lan, he smiled and asked, "You're not driving?"
"You're driving?" Li Lan asked curiously. He knew He Zhou. Although he had a car at home and could drive different cars every day, he didn't have enough money. He was unwilling to pay for gas and tolls, so he basically didn't drive.
"Hehe …" He Zhou raised his eyebrows at Li Lan and twirled his fingers.
"What did you make?" Li Lan asked.
Liu Shan said, "Jiawei got married. Uncle Zhuang let him manage the real estate company in the provincial capital. We helped him think of a plan and sold a property. Of course, we'll get a commission. He's the big boss, so we'll just drink some soup."
"Oh, you didn't even bring me along when you had such a good way to make money." Li Lan looked at them and asked with a smile, "You guys earned a lot, right?"
"You're the one who doesn't care about this little bit of money," Liu Jiawei said with a smile, "I'm not going to go to your place to make trouble."
He Zhou said, "We each earned about twenty thousand yuan. It's not much."
Li Lan said, "Twenty thousand is not a lot? Little He, as expected, money makes you a brave man. Even your tone has become arrogant. "
In his impression, He Zhou was a person who was stingy and calculative even if it was just a few tens of yuan.
Pan Ying looked at his wristwatch and said, "Let's go. If we go earlier, we can still make it for lunch."
Everyone got into the car and headed to the county. The car stopped beside Yang Huai's house in the county. Yang Huai came out and said, "Come in."
"Only the two of you?" Li Lan didn't see Aunt Li Mei or Uncle Yang Xuewen. There were only Yang Huai and Wu Pojun.
Yang Huai said, "They went back to the countryside after shopping with us. They have a lot of livestock at home, so they're worried."
Pan Ying saw Wu Pojun come out of the inner room. He took her hand and praised, "Sister-in-law is so beautiful."
Yang Huai pointed at Pan Ying and said to Wu Pojun, "This is Pan Ying. Just call her Little Pan."
Pan Ying asked, "Uncle Yang really doesn't care about anything anymore? Completely retired? "
Yang Huai said, "Anyway, I'm in charge of the company now. He won't interfere."
Liu Shan said, "Then you're a duke now. We have to be ruthless for this meal."
Yang Huai rolled his eyes at him and said, "If you're willing to take over now, Fourth Uncle definitely won't say no."
"I haven't graduated yet. We'll talk about it after I graduate." Liu Shan shrugged. The pears hanging from the pear trees in the yard were all pears. He picked one up and casually rubbed it, crunching on it.
Everyone chatted casually. When it was almost noon, Pan Ying suggested, "Why don't I go to the market and buy some ingredients? Let's cook at home. We'll make some peanuts and cucumbers. Wouldn't that be fine?"
There were small restaurants nearby. She was deeply worried about the hygiene of the small restaurants. As for the bigger ones, they would have to drive a long way. It didn't seem necessary just for a meal.
"If you're willing to cook, I have no objections." Yang Huai agreed wholeheartedly, but only if he didn't have to cook. It was impossible to count on him to cook.
"I'm not cooking either." Liu Shan also expressed his opinion. He didn't want to cook not because he was lazy, but because he was afraid of grease. It made him very uncomfortable when it stuck to his hands.
Liu Jiawei and Li Lan naturally agreed. They didn't want to go into the kitchen on such a hot day.
"Are you guys counting on me?" Pan Ying felt like he was trapped in a cocoon.
"It's fine. I'll go with you." Wu Pojun volunteered.
Without further ado, the two of them held hands and went out to the market.
When they returned, they were carrying bags of various sizes.
"If you ask me, the only disadvantage of this small place is that we can't eat seafood. At most, there's fish, crabs, loaches, and the like." Pan Ying saw that Wu Pojun was going to wash the pot and pushed her aside. "Sister-in-law, let me do it. You rest and help me pick the vegetables. You don't have to worry about anything else."
"I often do it at home. I'm not so delicate." Wu Pojun smiled and did her own thing.
"Thank you." Pan Ying rinsed the rice and put it in the rice cooker.
"There's no need to thank me. It's not like I won't eat with you." Wu Pojun asked, "You guys grew up together?"
"Yes." Pan Ying smiled. "Although we weren't from the same village, our fathers did business together, so we had more contact. Did Brother Huai pursue you? "
She knew Yang Huai's personality. Under his gentle appearance was a proud heart. He wouldn't easily talk about marriage.
"Not really." Wu Pojun smiled. "I just asked him if he was willing to marry me. He said yes, and that's it."
She didn't hide it and told him everything. She only left out the part about Yang Huai working at the chicken farm and her brother having gambling debts.
"Ah, that's it?" Pan Ying was so surprised that his mouth couldn't close. "That simple?"
"How complicated can it be?" In fact, she said it in a fit of pique that day. She didn't expect Yang Huai to agree so easily.
Since Yang Huai had agreed, she didn't know why she didn't have the courage to regret it.
Then, she entered the so-called rich family in a muddled way.
The moment she entered the Yang family, she didn't feel that the Yang family was very rich. It was a luxurious three-story building, two cars that cost hundreds of thousands, and the food and drinks weren't much different from an ordinary family. It was a completely ordinary life.
Only when she inadvertently chatted with them and heard them talking about what she thought was an astronomical amount of business, did she feel a sense of wealth and power.
And when they talked about houses, they didn't talk about apartments or rooms. They talked about buildings, and they were located in the middle of Hong Kong or in the middle of the mountain.
"I've been defeated by you." Pan Ying couldn't understand their feelings.
The meal was simple, so it was done quickly. It didn't take long for the table to be served.
"Drink some beer." Yang Huai opened six bottles in one go.
He Zhou asked, "What if we drive in the afternoon?"
He had finally touched the car, but he wasn't satisfied yet.
Liu Shan said, "There are so many taxis outside. Why drive?"
"Okay." It was hot and stuffy in the afternoon. He Zhou also wanted to drink to relieve the heat. "Two bottles per person."
"Let's drink first." Li Lan had already raised his glass. After drinking, he asked Yang Huai, "When are you getting married?"
"Mom and Dad might have to go to Hong Kong to discuss with her parents." Yang Huai naturally couldn't make the decision in this aspect.
He Zhou raised his glass. "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Yang Huai and Wu Pojun raised their glasses together. Yang Huai looked at Li Lan, Liu Shan, and He Zhou. "The three of you are under the most pressure. Hurry up."
"You haven't even done anything and you're already putting on airs. This won't do," He Zhou said as he chewed on peanuts. "I don't have as many bad habits as them. As long as I meet someone I like, I'll definitely get married."
He was the only child in his family. If he dared to delay until he was thirty, his mother would definitely force him to have a girlfriend. Who cared if he liked her or not? So he might as well take the initiative and find someone he liked.
"I can't find a girlfriend." Liu Shan sighed habitually.
Yang Huai asked, "Do you know about high carbon chain polymers?"
"There are only C atoms in the main chain." Liu Shan nodded.
"Do you know about identical particles?" Yang Huai continued.
"Particles with the same intrinsic properties are completely different from each other," Liu Shan said proudly, as if Yang Huai couldn't stump him.
"Do you know the de Broglie wavelength?" Yang Huai asked again.
"You're insulting my intelligence!" Liu Shan refused to answer. "How could I not know?"
"So, how could you possibly have a girlfriend?" Yang Huai said, and everyone laughed.
"What do you mean?" Liu Shan was confused, not understanding what everyone was laughing about.
Yang Huai said, "We're both studying physics, but why are you so outstanding? You know everything, but I don't. If you learned all the content of graduate studies and put all your effort into finding a girlfriend, you wouldn't be single. "
"I'm just looking around. It's so simple." Liu Shan pouted in disdain.
"Drink." He Zhou couldn't bear to look at Liu Shan's face. The results of his casual look were worth the effort of others.
Yang Huai brought Wu Pojun to stay at home for a week. Li Mei was the first to suggest going to Hong Kong to meet her in-laws. She really liked this future daughter-in-law. She was good at the dining hall and the kitchen, and there was nothing wrong with her.
If she had to nitpick, it would be that she didn't seem like a good person, and was afraid that her son would suffer in her hands.
Li Mei mentioned it to Yang Xuewen, and Yang Xuewen immediately replied, "You make it sound like you have a bad temper."
"What were you doing earlier? It's not too late to regret it now!" Li Mei exploded on the spot, and argued with Yang Xuewen. "There are plenty of pretty girls on the street, go find them!"
"I …" Yang Xuewen couldn't defend himself.
Li Mei seemed to have become more and more irascible these few years. Yang Xuewen often missed the years when they were just married, when they were all lovey-dovey, and now?
There was no harm without comparison.
In the past, he had seen the temper of Four, Five, He Fang, and Duan Mei. In front of Li He, he praised Li Mei proudly, "Among the few in your family, your elder sister has the best temper."
At that time, his brother-in-law looked at him strangely, and now that he thought about it, it even seemed to be a little meaningful.
It was all an illusion.
He understood what his mother-in-law meant when she said that the Li Family was full of tough bones and stubborn donkeys.
He understood more and more that the Li Family, from the girls to the boys, was not easy to get along with.
His mother-in-law used to wipe her nose and shed tears at the slightest thing, but now she was not simple. She was old, and her temper was tough. Even his father-in-law, who was a difficult person to deal with, was tamed.
He had no choice but to accept it.
The Yang Family set off immediately, and under Li He's suggestion, the whole family directly chartered a plane.
Wu Pojun once again saw how the rich traveled, but she did not know whether to laugh or cry when she saw her future father-in-law carrying a woven bag in a suit and tie. He said that it was a special product for a relative.
The relative of the Yang Family in Hong Kong was naturally Tang Liwen. In terms of seniority, Yang Xuewen had to call him uncle.
"If it wasn't for the in-laws, I wouldn't have invited you." Tang Liwen and Song Youxi came together to pick them up.
"This is for you." Yang Xuewen threw the woven bag to Song Youxi behind him, and he stuffed it into Tang Liwen's car. Then, he smiled and said, "What are you talking about? How could I not come to my little cousin's wedding?"
Actually, coming to Hong Kong this time was killing two birds with one stone. On one hand, he could meet the in-laws, and on the other hand, he could attend Tang Liwen's son's wedding.
There were more than ten people who came to pick them up, including relatives of the Tang Family and executives of the Wanwen Group in Hong Kong. Yang Xuewen went up to shake hands with them one by one. At this time, Wu Pojun finally saw this father-in-law's bearing as a business tycoon.
"Mr. Yang, get in the car." Song Youxi opened the door.
After Yang Xuewen got in the car, he said, "Old Song, I have to criticize you."
"Mr. Yang, I accept the criticism. This is a mistake on my part." Song Youxi expressed that he did not know when Yang Huai had secretly found a girlfriend. He could only say that it was a mistake in his intelligence work.
The group of people did not go to the hotel, nor did they go to the Tang Family. Instead, they went to the house in Repulse Bay.
"I told you long ago that it wouldn't take much effort to find an auntie. Look, this house is so messy." As soon as Li Mei entered the door, she smelled a musty smell and began to criticize her son.
"I should have come to clean up in advance." Song Youxi took the initiative to take the blame. Listening to the lady boss's tone, she was actually lecturing her son. Perhaps she was complaining that he was incompetent as an assistant minister and a nanny!
Actually, what did it have to do with him?
Yang Huai valued space and privacy. No one was allowed to enter his house or even his office without permission. Even if it was a mess, he could only let it be.
If he dared to come in and clean up without Yang Huai's permission, he would be in trouble.
Li Mei smiled and said, "It has nothing to do with you. Do you think I don't know his bad temper?"
After saying that, she started to clean up personally. Wu Pojun could not just watch, so he volunteered to help.
The Yangs began to listen to Song Youxi's report about the acquisition of Zhongyang Holdings.
"What do you think?" After listening to Song Youxi's report, Yang Xuewen asked Yang Huai directly.
Yang Huai said, "It's been listed for more than ten years. Its share capital hasn't expanded, its performance is very poor, and the management is too lazy. I mean to just replace it. "
Yang Xuewen asked, "I've seen this boss, Ma Weicheng, before and heard some things about him. He came from a poor fishing village and didn't even have a decent set of clothes. He became a billionaire from scratch. How can you tell that he's lazy?"
