Chapter 692 She's Divorced, Why Am I Still Afraid of Her? (Repaying Debt)
After the bell rang at noon, everyone in the department rushed to get off work and eat, but Lao Ding slowly packed away his tableware.
Li Ye also packed his schoolbag slowly, and the master and apprentice fell behind the others in a tacit understanding.
Lao Ding looked at Li Ye and said helplessly: "If you do this, you can push it away for a while, but not forever.
The first level of officialdom is overwhelming, but in the end Wu Qingyi will still blame you for the faux mountain accessories factory, and you have gained a reputation as someone who doesn't know where to go. "
Li Ye smiled and shook his head, took out two boxes of cigarettes from his pocket and placed them on Lao Ding's table.
"Stop talking about these unhappy things, master, I'm getting married the day after tomorrow! If you have time, come over and have a drink!"
"I thought you forgot to invite me! Hey, Ashima, this cigarette is good!"
Lao Ding smiled, pointed to the two boxes of cigarettes on the table and asked Li Ye: "Are you just going to invite me for a drink? Or will you let me invite some colleagues for you?"
The rule of the flower grower is that good things come uninvited and bad things come uninvited.
Li Ye is getting married. If he wants his colleagues to be present to celebrate, he has to invite them, and generally he cannot invite them himself. He has to find a suitable intermediary to help him.
That's why Lao Ding asked this question.
But Li Ye shook his head and said: "Master, I just came here and I haven't even spoken a few words to my colleagues. Why do I have the nerve to let others join in? Forget it!"
"Okay, then you have taken a liking to me. Okay, tell me your address and I'll be there the day after tomorrow."
Lao Ding conveniently stuffed two boxes of cigarettes into his drawer. He originally thought he was going to help Li Ye spread the cigarettes and hire someone else! It turns out that Li Ye gave it to him. I have to say that this young apprentice is quite impressive in his work.
"Then how can we let Master go by yourself?" Li Ye said with a smile: "I will send the car to pick you up at the factory gate in advance at noon the day after tomorrow."
"Okay! You're pretty cool, so I'll remember it."
"Then I'm leaving, master."
"Let's go, let's go! It's noon the day after tomorrow!"
Old Ding looked at Li Ye's straight back and suddenly overturned his previous thoughts.
As a young disciple, he may not be smart, but he really has something to rely on.
. . . . . . . . . .
Li Ye had actually received his marriage certificate a long time ago. He asked for leave this afternoon to entertain relatives from Qingshui County.
During the Chinese New Year, Li Zhongfa discussed with Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng that their wedding would be held in the capital and everything would be kept simple. However, they would also have to go back to Qingshui County and invite their relatives in Qingshui County for a drink. .
Because weddings in Beijing were kept simple, the only people who came from Qingshui were the grandparents, Li Kaijian's family, and the aunt and sister-in-law's closest relatives. No one else came.
Li Ye settled them in the courtyard of Zaojun Temple. Anyway, there were only a dozen people, so they lived in a comfortable place.
But my aunt Li Mingyue smiled and said: "Xiaoye! Didn't you say you bought a new house? Why don't you take us to see it?"
Li Ye smiled and said, "Xiao Yu bought that house. We won't go look at it today. You can take a look at it when you get married the day after tomorrow."
"Alas~"
The aunt sighed and said plaintively: "Xiaoye! You've been hiding this from us in the past few years. It's been so hard for us! I've asked you countless times, and you... Oh, we are all a family, why are you Are you going to hide it from me?"
Ever since Li Ye came to the capital to study, Li Mingyue had asked him if he and Wen Leyu had "anyone to talk to", but Li Ye was always vague.
Later, there were rumors in Qingshui County that although Li Ye was the number one scholar in the province, he was from a wealthy family in Wenyue and Chongqing, and they had long since disdained him, and the two had long since separated.
It turned out that they had just graduated and the two were about to get married.
When she found out that Li Ye was going to marry Wen Leyu, her aunt Li Mingyue felt so regretful that her intestines turned green.
She knew very well that if she was not Li Ye's biological aunt, according to Dongshan tradition, she must be present at the wedding. Li Ye did not notify her of this wedding.
When Li Yue married Yang Yumin, Li Mingyue rushed to become relatives with her. As a result, Li Yue didn't want to see their family, and she didn't get any glory in the past two years.
Now Li Ye has reached an even more impressive father-in-law and mother-in-law. If he can leak a little from his fingers to their family, that will be enough.
So before coming this time, Li Mingyue was determined to repair the relationship with Li Ye even if she apologized.
But human nature is hard to change. Over the years, Li Mingyue has become accustomed to the attitude of talking to Li Ye. Although she has been reminding herself to be kind, she still has a resentful tone when she speaks to Li Ye.
This is very unpleasant, and resentment is also resentment. Li Ye just doesn't want to tell you, can you complain?
So Li Ye said calmly: "Auntie, I discussed this matter with my grandfather. My grandfather said that you have to rely on yourself to be a good person.
The better the conditions of my daughter-in-law's family, the more I have to strive for my own success, so Auntie, it doesn't make any difference whether I hide it from you or not. If you are really resentful, don't blame me. "
"."
Aunt Li Mingyue was stunned and said with a wry smile: "How can I blame you? I know that some things in the past few years have caused you to misunderstand, but we are all a family."
"Mingyue, what are you talking about to Li Ye?"
The aunt was about to play the family card with Li Ye, but grandma Wu Juying came over.
Grandma's face was obviously unkind, and she said to Li Mingyue: "Why did I tell you before I came here? You can eat and drink as you like, but don't talk to me. Have you forgotten?"
"Mom, those who don't speak are mute~"
Li Mingyue said aggrievedly: "Then we will get engaged tomorrow and get married the day after tomorrow. My new wife's family will sit at the same table with us. Do I have to pretend to be mute?"
Wu Juying said coldly: "When the time comes, if you sit at the same table as us, no one will talk to you."
"."
Li Mingyue returned to her husband with great regret. Her husband Cui Zhixian asked in a low voice: "How was your conversation with Li Ye? Have you solved the knot?"
Li Mingyue slowly shook her head and said with a cry: "No one in my family wants to see me, so I might as well not come!"
Cui Zhixian shook his head and said, "If you don't come, you will never have a chance."
If my nephew gets married and the aunt doesn't come, won't the relationship just be cut off?
Li Mingyue sighed and said: "My mother scolded me just now, saying that we are too impatient. In a few years, when Li Ye is older and more sensible, he can ease the relationship with us for the sake of his relatives."
"Will not!"
Cui Zhixian said firmly: "The gap between people will become wider and wider. Now Li Ye has to invite you to his wedding, but after a few years, you may not even be able to get through the door of his house."
"."
Cui Zhixian actually understood very well that he seemed "too anxious" to force his wife to ease the relationship with Li Ye at this moment.
But he ran out of time.
In their line of work, there is an unwritten rule - don't promote if you are 45. Cui Zhixian is almost 45. Without outside help, his life may be over.
And according to the old tradition of Dongshan, unless it is a heinous crime, a biological aunt is a biological aunt. If your biological aunt asks you to do something, your brother and nephew are still being pretentious?
Especially at a critical moment like a wedding, when relatives and friends come to congratulate her, if Li Mingyue, as her aunt, lowers her profile and asks her nephew to do something small, it will really gain everyone's approval.
"Oh, that's your aunt. It's just a word. What's the big deal if I just do a small favor?"
But after passing this village, Li Ye's face was nowhere to be seen, and he couldn't open his mouth no matter how small the task was.
So Cui Zhixian finally urged Li Mingyue again.
"You can talk to Li Ye alone later when there is no one around. Our family is patriotic, and this is a good opportunity."
"How can I talk to him? You don't know the droopy look on his face towards me. Do I still have to kneel down for him?"
Li Mingyue was angry. Her husband always forced her to give Li Ye a smile. When had she ever given a smile to a junior in her life?
But then Li Mingyue saw her husband's eyes, and couldn't help but tremble in her heart.
"You really want me to kneel down for him?"
The elders kneel down to the younger ones. There is a special name in Jincheng - playing green skin.
It is a move that is extremely cruel, and most people cannot resist it.
. . . . . . . . .
After everyone had dinner, aunt Li Mingyue saw Li Ye going out.
She quickly followed out, but Li Ye had already driven to the alley entrance.
It happened that Li Zhongfa brought a car from Qingshui County, and the driver Xiao Xu was listening to music in the car!
Imported new car, the sound is really good.
Li Mingyue opened the door and got in the car.
"Xiao Xu, hurry up and follow the car in front of you."
"Ah? Okay, okay, sit down."
The driver, Xiao Xu, didn't know all the things about the Li family. Li Mingyue was the eldest daughter of her immediate boss, so she had to wait for him quickly?
As soon as they left, the very alert former guerrilla grandma noticed that Li Mingyue was missing, and followed her out of the courtyard gate, just in time to see Li Zhongfa's car exiting the alley and turning right.
"Xiaoyue, come out quickly and drive me to buy some silk cloth."
"What kind of silk cloth? Can't you do it tomorrow?"
"Cut the nonsense and hurry up!"
Sister Li Yue was completely unable to resist her grandma's suppression and obediently drove to follow her.
The three cars drove towards Dongcheng one after another. After a while, Li Ye, who was at the front, suddenly stopped in front of a hotel and picked up someone.
a woman.
The aunt Li Mingyue who was following behind frowned in confusion, because she always felt that she had seen this woman before.
"Stop, stop, stop, Xiao Xu, don't drive over."
Li Mingyue subconsciously asked the driver Xiao Xu to brake.
【Who is this! Li Yeye is getting married soon, how can he be alone with a woman? 】
When driver Xiao Xu saw Li Ye's car moving in front of him again, he asked, "Sister, are we still following?"
Li Mingyue was curious! He nodded quickly and said: "Follow, follow, stay a little further away, don't let them see you."
"ah?"
The driver Xiao Xu was a little confused.
You, an aunt, are following your eldest nephew, what kind of trouble are you causing?
Li Mingyue's intention was not to expose Li Ye's "good deeds". After all, he was a man and a woman alone.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed through Li Mingyue's mind.
She suddenly remembered who the woman in front of her was.
"Is that her? Why doesn't she age?"
"No. Is it a ghost?"
Li Mingyue's teeth began to chatter, and he couldn't speak in a coherent manner.
An invisible fear enveloped Li Mingyue's whole body, oppressing her as if she couldn't breathe.
When she finally took a breath, the car just stopped and stopped in front of a very private restaurant.
Xiao Xu said depressedly: "Sister, the car in front has stopped. Look, shall we go back?"
As a leader's driver, there are some things that you shouldn't look at, but today he seems to be in trouble.
Li Mingyue suddenly gained courage, opened the car door and chased after him.
"So what if it's her? She's divorced from Kaijian, so why should I be afraid of her?"
