Chapter 1,172 Life 5
When he was going out to eat later, Meng Li opened the client's wardrobe and rummaged through it, but couldn't find any particularly good-looking clothes.
Logically speaking, the client should be kind to himself and at least have a few clothes that he can wear when going out. However, the client who has come from an era of scarcity of materials is still relatively frugal.
Meng Li almost dug out the clothes that were out of season and found clothes that were barely matching.
Then he sat in front of the dressing table and had his eyebrows drawn. The client was not dark, neither thin nor fat, with a medium build, but there were inevitable traces of time on his face.
Meng Li put on another lipstick. She took a look at the lipstick. It was given to the client by the client's daughter. There were hundreds of them. The client didn't understand it very well. She hadn't used it much and it was almost expired.
Then she walked slowly to the storefront. Wu Boyang and several workers were already waiting. Seeing Meng Li applying eyebrow makeup and lipstick, she couldn't help but say:
"I said I won't come down for a long time."
Meng Li didn't say anything. After more than twenty years with Wu Boyang, he didn't have any tactful words at all. He just said what he had to say.
The young men were relatively happy. Although the food tasted by my aunt was not bad, it was not as good as the food in restaurants outside.
Meng Li and Wu Boyang were walking in front, while several young men distanced themselves from behind. They were huddled together chatting.
For elders like Meng Li and Wu Boyang, there is a generation gap.
They usually go to a fixed restaurant in town to eat. The boss is an acquaintance of them and takes care of business, so there is no need to ask.
When ordering, Wu Boyang asked Meng Li to order, but he didn't care. Meng Li ordered some of his favorite food, and then asked a few young men to order whatever they wanted.
They were not polite, and everyone was very happy when the food came. Only Wu Boyang was unhappy because his two favorite dishes were not available.
Looking at Meng Li, Meng Li said:
"Why, isn't the food delicious?"
Wu Boyang used that kind of "You really don't understand?" ’ looked at Meng Li with an expression.
Meng Li said:
“If you want to eat more, please order.
"
Wu Boyang looked at the table full of dishes and thought about it but still didn't order. These dishes were all enough to eat.
Several men wanted to drink and brag. Meng Li ate and left, leaving them alone. Wu Boyang didn't come back until very late. Meng Li asked:
"Can you drink just those few dishes so late?"
Wu Boyang said:
"There happened to be something going on outside, so I went out again."
"Can you drive after drinking?" Meng Li asked.
Wu Boyang: "I'm going on foot."
Meng Li smiled and said nothing. He probably gave Xia Rong the anti-gas tank or something.
Anyway, it is common for Wu Boyang to install signs and the like sometimes have problems, so he has to make another trip. This reason is easy for the client to believe.
Maybe he just had to deal with work matters. Meng Li felt that if he got married, his marriage might not be happy.
The reason is...
Too suspicious.
Meng Li saw that Wu Boyang's face was red and smelled of alcohol, so he said:
"Are you taking a break now?"
Wu Boyang said:
"I also want to watch some TV. You go to bed first."
Wu Boyang sat on the sofa, and Meng Li also sat down. She said:
"I called Mrs. Li and asked her not to come over for the time being."
In fact, I just asked Sister-in-law Li if there was anything going on at home. If anything happened, I could take care of it before coming back to work. Sister-in-law Li was quite happy and said she would come back a few days later if there was no rush here.
She still had to work in the fields for a few more days, and when she came to work, her husband was in poor health and could barely take care of the children, so she couldn't do much work in the fields.
Wu Boyang looked at Meng Li with a crazy look and said:
"You ask people to come, but you don't ask them to come. Isn't this a trick on her? You have to do something so that people will tell you that you are wrong."
Meng Li glanced at Wu Boyang:
"Honestly, you said I complain all day long, don't you also scold me all day long?"
Wu Boyang: "..."
No one will criticize you if you do things right. If you have time, you might as well watch a TV series.
"No, you said the money was too much, so I asked you to please." Meng Li said.
Wu Boyang obviously didn't want to bother with this matter and said:
"We've already agreed, so don't change it anymore, lest people get upset and talk nonsense in my hometown."
Meng Li refused to let go:
"But I've already told her not to come for the time being. Am I calling her now to ask her to come?"
Wu Boyang couldn't help but said:
"ill."
Meng Li said: "Actually, I have a good idea."
"What?" Wu Boyang looked over.
Meng Li said:
"To be fair, I will go out and do your work for you, and you can do the work well at home."
Wu Boyang looked at Meng Li in surprise, moved closer to Meng Li, pushed Meng Li's head with his hand, and said:
"Your mind is not working right now? What have you been thinking about all day?"
"Maybe you have read too much poisonous chicken soup on the Internet."
Meng Liyou chuckled: "You still know how to poison chicken soup, it's not easy."
Wu Boyang: "Why don't I know? But then again, I asked you to do my job, but you really can't do it."
"Is it very technical?" Meng Li sneered.
Wu Boyang looked a little proud:
"That's not true. It's just that you can't keep up physically. It's actually a delicate job. Don't look at it. Sometimes I just put up an advertisement paper and ask you to go. Can you put it up smoothly?"
Meng Li was not afraid, she said:
"Let's do this, you do the housework at home, and I go out and work with them. Whoever can't handle it first will lose."
"What if you lose, so what if you win?" Wu Boyang looked at Meng Li warily.
Meng Li: "No."
"Some people don't feel at ease when they can't see me working." Wu Boyang thought for a while and said.
Meng Li: "Are there any important customers who need to work during this period?"
Wu Boyang shook his head, Meng Li said:
"That's it."
Wu Boyang said with confusion and confusion:
"But we have nothing to do with such boring things. In society, there is a different division of labor between men and women. I am in charge of the outside world and you are in charge of the inside."
Meng Li: "The point is, I don't want to take care of this mess at home for a day now. I have to ask you to do it. Anyway, they can handle it without you outside."
Wu Boyang: "If you don't agree, you will make trouble, right?"
Meng Li hummed, noncommittal.
In order to calm the matter, Wu Boyang decided to let his wife go out to experience what he was busy with all day long, so as not to complain to him all day long about how tiring housework was.
It makes him look so cool outside.
He can guarantee that he won't be able to work for more than a day before he comes back.
"Okay." Wu Boyang said helplessly with the same purpose as Meng Li.
Meng Li raised his eyebrows, then smiled, stood up, said he was asleep, and entered the room.
Wu Boyang then started to change channels with the remote control board, his expression relaxed, and his ears were clean.
