"I told you long ago that I'm not the type to study."
?
Five's tone was no longer the same as before. Li Lao Er wouldn't eat her, so what was there for her to be afraid of?
"I'll deal with you later." Li He put away his things and prepared to wash his face and eat something. He didn't have time to argue with Five.
Five raised her head and said, "If I'm afraid of you, I'll change my surname to yours!"
Li He held his head and felt a headache. Was this girl stupid? Weren't they both surnamed Li?
The weather wasn't cold, so he directly fetched some water from the well and took a cold shower. His mother was glaring at him from the side, which made his heart feel a little cold. He had to hide even if he didn't want to. After taking a shower and eating something, he didn't give Wang Yulan a chance to interrupt. He used the excuse of going to see Li Fucheng and his parents and hurriedly left the house.
He didn't dare to talk to Wang Yulan. He was too familiar with Wang Yulan's routine!
A good personality didn't mean that she didn't have a desire to control. Wang Yulan also had a desire to control her children and hoped that they would obey her. When the children who were given the expectation of obedience by society started to rebel against their parents, the authority of the parents was directly challenged. The parents felt that their status was threatened and needed to defend their authority.
Are you married or not? Are you listening to me? Do you still recognize me as your mother? Are you still a human? Do you want me to live?
Every knife was bloody, step by step.
"War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is power." His mother was looking at him.
If he said one more word, his mother would explode. Otherwise, it would be unfilial, and then she would cry and snot.
Li He left, which left Four to suffer. From Four's style to his clothes, Wang Yulan didn't meet her requirements. Four looked at his mother's white hair and felt a lump in his throat. He didn't refute and obediently put on his old clothes.
It was also a mistake for Li He to go to Li Fucheng's house now. Old Grandmother also attached great importance to Li He's marriage, even more so than Wang Yulan. Old Grandma took Li He's hand and said, "My good grandson, I can't close my eyes until you get married. I haven't been able to sleep for the entire night. "
First, they talked about feelings. Then, they laid out the facts and gave an example. Whose family was the same age as you? Look, your child is already in primary school. Look at whose family's conditions are worlds apart from yours. It would be good for them to find a wife.
Li He looked at Old Grandma's expectant eyes and felt guilty!
Li Fucheng said, "Do you want to take a look? Just find someone who understands your needs. The more you pick, the less good you'll find. "
Li He said helplessly, "I didn't pick. I'm busy with work now. When I have time in the future, I'll find a wife."
Old Grandma said, "It's true that you have a family first and then a career. If you don't have a career in your life, can't you have a family for the rest of your life?"
"Got it, Grandma. I got it." Other than nodding in agreement, Li He didn't know what else to say. After listening to Old Grandma's nagging, he didn't dare to stay for dinner and hurriedly ran out.
Suddenly, he found that he had nowhere to go.
On the way, he met a few people. They were curious about the single Erhe and asked him if he brought a wife back. This made Li He even more ashamed. Some of the people who asked him had good intentions and were really concerned about his marriage. Some of them might not have good intentions and were probably mocking him behind his back. Look, he was still a university student. Wasn't a university student still single and comforting himself with the theory that studying was useless?
They went around to the big tree behind the farmstead. This was the only consignment shop in the village, which was newly opened by Dongmei's family. A group of old men were bragging and playing poker. Next to them, the old women were knitting and chatting at the same time. Stories of the East and the West passed through one person's mouth and into another's ear. Li Zhaokun was also inside. If he wasn't allowed to brag and show off, he might as well let him die.
He saw Li He and didn't expect Li He to come back. He was stunned for a moment before putting on a serious look. "Why are you walking around as soon as you come back?"
As a father, he had to act like a father.
Seeing that Li He had come, the group of old men and women at the entrance of the commission shop shifted their thoughts away from other things. They stood up in twos and threes to greet Li He.
Li He smiled and said, "You guys go ahead and play. I've just come back, so I came out to walk around."
He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit them up.
Xitong then said, "Good fella, I've only heard of these cigarettes. They cost one yuan. The last time I went to the county for a meeting, even the county secretary might not have been able to smoke them."
"Really? We have to try it."
"Try it. I can't bear to smoke it."
Li He also handed a cigarette to Li Zhaokun. Li Zhaokun said in disgust, "I'm not used to that kind of cigarette. It's better to smoke my own." Then he took out his own cigarette from his pocket.
Li He didn't give the old women next to him a cigarette. The old women next to him were unhappy. "Erhe, you forgot about us."
"Yeah, Erhe, what's the meaning of this?"
"Yes, yes, we have to give them a cigarette."
Li He hurriedly pretended to apologize. He took out another pack of cigarettes from his pocket and gave one to each of the old women. The old women smiled and took the cigarettes. Then, they lifted the cigarette to their noses and sniffed it.
Liu Dazhuang's father said, "You're wasting the good cigarettes."
Dongmei's wife said, "You're the only one who has the good stuff, right?"
The old women's words made Old Liu's father's face turn red and white.
Li He asked Li Zhaokun if he was going back. Li Zhaokun said, "I haven't bought any cigarettes yet."
"I'll buy one for you then," Li He said to Dongmei's wife, "Sister-in-law, I'll buy one."
He understood that Li Zhaokun didn't really want to buy cigarettes. He just wanted to show that his son was successful. Whatever his father wanted, his son had to buy it for him.
Li He touched his pocket out of habit. He realized that there was no money in his pocket. All his money was in his bag. "Sister-in-law, there's no money in my pocket. I'll give it to you later."
Dongmei's wife smiled. "It's okay. Just take it. You don't have to give me anything. "
Li He took the cigarette and smiled embarrassedly. "I changed my clothes the moment I got home. I didn't want to spend any money, so I didn't put any money in my pocket."
Li Zhaokun wanted to take the opportunity to show off and see if his son was obedient. He didn't expect it to turn into an awkward situation. He mumbled, "He's always with his secretary when he's outside. He's just like our county's secretary. If he wants to buy anything, his secretary is the one paying. Look at this son of a b * tch. He doesn't even know what money looks like when he gets home!"
When Li He heard this, he wished he could find a hole to hide in. This Li Zhaokun didn't know how to brag, and he liked to brag. He quickly pulled Li Zhaokun home. If they stayed any longer, it would be really awkward.
