"Sister, your Magnolia is really good, diligent, capable, and honest. The mouth is still very sweet. I played with us until we grew up. It's kind of grown up. The two know the roots. I think she is very good. it is good……"
Magnolia's mother thought to herself, is this Liu Chunzhi going to kiss her daughter? She stayed attentive and said modestly: "Sister-in-law, just speak up if you have something."
"Okay, then I'll just say it straight. Don't worry. I think your Magnolia is very good. I want to pair her with our Jianping. What does the girl think? Our Jianping is okay?"
"Speak to Jianping?" Magnolia's mother was taken aback. It was her mother who came to propose marriage in person.
"Yes, although the two are a few years old, hey, those years are not a big deal at all. I looked at it very well, and the two young people also looked at each other."
"This..." Magnolia's mother didn't know what to say for a while, but she slowly understood it later, and she felt a little happy in her heart. The Li family is now booming, and she is a good family. Magnolia was considered a high climb to their house, and there was nothing wrong with it, so she smiled and said, "I thought you were going to tell you a kiss to Jianbo, but it is Jianping. Jianping is also pretty good."
Liu Chunzhi muttered in his heart, Jianbo has a high vision, and now he has gone abroad again, can you read a word and don't know how many country girls? This Magnolia mother can really think about it.
"The girl agreed?"
Magnolia's mother laughed and said, "I don't have any comments. This is a big happy event. It's just that Jianguo is the head of our house and we have to ask him what he means. If he feels good, then settle down."
"That's all right, turn back girl, say a few more words for our family Jianping. I am waiting for your good news."
The two mothers discussed, and the more they talked, the more speculative, and I don’t know how long it had passed. Wang Yulan walked in and said to her mother: "Mom, Dad said I want to go back. When will you leave?"
"Hey, how about going back now?"
"Yeah, it's past three o'clock."
Yulan's mother thought she could talk to Jianping's mother for two more hours. They talked about the business of hot pot restaurants from their children's family affairs, and talked about the harvest in the field, and by the way, they also talked about some strange things in Li Ming's country.
Magnolia took her daughter out of the house. The mother and daughter walked to a secluded place and asked her daughter in a low voice: "Magnolia, how is the Li family treating you?"
Magnolia nodded and said: "Very good."
Magnolia grinned and said, "That's right. Child, you are a great fortune. You can help your younger siblings when you become rich in the future."
Magnolia guessed something vaguely, but did not dare to ask for confirmation. Wang Jianguo was calling for someone in front, and Magnolia's mother agreed and went.
Liu Chunzhi helped to pay for the fare for returning to Yongning. He also gave two bottles of good wine, good cigarettes, some fried peanuts, melon seeds, etc. to Magnolia's younger brothers and sisters.
Holding these things, Wang Jianguo felt ashamed.
"Do you think their family is too enthusiastic? They invited us to dinner and gave these things. The Li family is really rich. Since they are so rich, they should increase Magnolia's wages."
"What's the salary? Only you nod, the Li's store will have half of ours in the future."
"Huh, why do you say that?"
Magnolia's mother smiled and said: "Jianguo, don't you know, Jianping his mother told me about the marriage of his children. I think it's okay, but I have to ask you what you mean later. If you think it's good, it's settled. Up."
"Marriage? Is Jianbo mentioned?"
Magnolia's mother nodded Wang Jianguo's forehead: "Jianbo is something that our family can think of. I heard that they have gone abroad. It is Jianping."
Wang Jianguo said: "Jianping." His previous impression of Jianping was actually not good. He felt that this kid was not good at reading, and he didn't learn any crafts. But now... it seems to be different. He thought about it and said, "But where does the Li family come from to send Jianbo abroad? The Li family still has such relatives?"
Magnolia said, "It must be Jianbo's mother who found it. The educated youth brought a child, and the child's father never showed up. Later, when he returned to the city, he gave Jianbo to the Li family. It must be the educated youth who has developed and took back his son and gave the Li family a large sum of money, otherwise their family can open such a big hot pot restaurant."
Wang Jianguo only heard the four words "a large sum of money". He thought to himself that Jianping would like to marry Magnolia, and this gift can be mentioned. They have raised magnolia for more than ten years, but it is not for nothing.
Within two days, Wang Jianguo came to the city again, this time specifically for the Li family. Did not go to the hot pot restaurant, came to Li's house.
He looked at the spacious and bright bungalows with whitewashed walls. It happened that Li Wei was at home after school. She went out to say hello and went back to the room to read the newspaper.
Wang Jianguo and Li Minghua said: "I have discussed with Yulan's mother, and I think this marriage is good, so our family is completely fine."
Liu Chunzhi mentioned to Li Minghua when he was in Jianping and Yulan that Li Minghua was a little bit disinterested in Yulan, but Chunzhi had already spoken, and the Wang family agreed. It seems that this matter will not go away, so he said: "It's a happy event. Let's make a decision when we return to Yongning for the New Year."
Wang Jianguo was naturally very happy.
Li Wei heard it in the next room, and thought Wang Yulan was really going to be her sister-in-law. Obviously, I'm not much older than myself, so I'm really not used to calling my sister-in-law in the future.
The marriage between the two was suddenly decided, and Wang Yulan did not immediately move out of the Li family. Liu Chunzhi asked her to help during the Chinese New Year. After the new year, the two of them formally made a kiss, and then temporarily did not come to help.
The sound of the guitar came from Jianping's room again, and Li Wei admired this elder brother. He was completely self-taught. Now he plays the guitar better than anyone else.
Li Wei didn't go to Jianping's room to listen to him, because she knew Magnolia was over there right now. After their affairs became clear, Yulan was not as shy as before, and often ran into Jianping's room.
After Li Jianping bowed his head and finished playing a piece of music, Wang Yulan recovered from the music, and asked blankly: "Brother Li, do you like me?"
Li Jianping was made a little shy by this question. He was silent for a while. He looked at Magnolia's watery eyes at this moment. With a sudden movement in his heart, he kissed Magnolia's face and said, "I don't hate it. "
When Wang Yulan came out, her face was flushed and her eyes dripped with water. This is what the girl Huaichun looks like.
"Wei Wei, let me help you dry your clothes." Yulan took the initiative to help, and Li Wei nodded and agreed. However, Magnolia did not hang the wet clothes on the bamboo pole for a long time, and she did not know what to do.
