Chapter 165:

At the watch counter of the mall, Li Guoliang was dazzled. The watch in his hand was the trophy of the headquarters that captured the little Jap, and it has been used for so many years, so there is no concept of a new type of watch.
Now that I see the full counter of watches, I think this has changed too much.
The key is that these watches are even classified into grades, hundreds of which are expensive, and dozens of cheaper ones. But after seeing a good watch, go for the worst watch... Li Guoliang always can't pass the hurdle in his heart.
The watch in the hand of the female student just now is certainly not the worst. If you buy the worst piece for his girl at the moment, let that female classmate see it. Others will laugh at his daughters and dad with him.
Having been a leading cadre for so many years, although Li Guoliang said he was not richer or more luxurious than others, he did not want to be the worst.
He quickly saw the same watch as that on the female student's wrist.
Look at the price of that watch. Three hundred and twenty. His monthly salary is two hundred and six. With other subsidies, you can buy it with more than one month's salary.
Li Guoliang had no idea about money, so he didn't think so much. So he waved his hand, "Just take this... plum blossom. Same as your classmate. Let's not compare."
Li Mei was dumbfounded. More than 300 watches... She was going to buy a pen or a notebook before she came out.
She anxiously said, "Dad, will it be too expensive?" Don't regret it afterwards.
"It's not expensive. This thing can last for many years." He showed the watch on his wrist. "I have used this watch for more than 20 years. It's bigger than you, and it's still in good use."
Li Mei said gratefully, "Dad, I will use it for a lifetime."
Li Guoliang said, "The main thing is to study hard and to be useful after you buy it."
"Yeah." Li Mei nodded his head, thanking Su Yu even more.
After the two bought things, they took the bus directly back. According to Li Guoliang's level, he has to have a special car to pick him up when he travels, but because he takes his daughters out, he doesn't use the car.
Sitting in the bus, Li Ping couldn't help but look at her wrist, and looked happy at the new watch in her hand.
Li Guoliang also felt comforted when he saw her contentment. I feel that I have compensated somehow.
When he got home, Li Ping also helped tell the time, "Dad, it's 11:50."
"Well, Xiao Wu should have already bought vegetables and returned, so let's go straight to eat."
Sure enough, as soon as the two entered the house, a happy voice came from the house. Li Aihong, Li Aijun, and Li Aidang all gathered around the table with their bowls and chopsticks.
Because their dad is coming back for dinner, they can't use the chopsticks first, they can only wait to come back together.
Mother Li said, "Old Li, why do you eat so well again. It costs much to buy it from a restaurant. I can save a little if I buy it and make it myself."
Li Guoliang said, "It's been a long time since Pingping came back to eat as a family."
Hearing this, Li's mother looked at Li Ping, "Pingping, why did you go to your dad again, which delayed your dad's work. Your dad has been busy recently, and hasn't come back for dinner for many days."
Li Ping said, "I just want to see Dad."
"You kid..." Mother Li felt that she didn't know how to educate her, she always said that she couldn't hear her.
"Okay, go wash your hands and eat."
"Yeah." Li Ping nodded. Then go to the bathroom to wash your hands.
When they came out, the places around Li Guoliang and his wife were occupied. She didn't feel sad anymore, consciously sitting in her place, listening to her younger siblings and parents acting like a baby.
Li Aihong was talking to Li Guoliang about her at school, and she looked at her elder sister consciously or unconsciously, only to see what was on her wrist.
She was taken aback, then took a closer look. That’s right. The one that shines is the watch chain.
"Sister, have you bought a watch?!" Li Aihong exclaimed.
Hearing this, everyone else looked at Li Ping's wrist.
All eyes widened. Mother Li was surprised, "Pingping, what's the matter?"
Li Ping pulled down her sleeve to cover her wrist, "Dad bought it for me."
Li Guoliang said, "Pingping needs a watch to go to college. It should be bought. Now it is different from what we used to be. Many young people buy it."
Mother Li said, "Old Li, you can't be so used to your children. How much grain and meat can be bought for a watch, and a few clothes are enough for one person."
Looking at Li Ping again, "Pingping, why are you asking your dad for a watch?"
"I didn't want it." Li Ping said.
"Then why did you buy it?" Li Aihong said jealously.
Li Guoliang squeezed the bridge of his nose, "Okay, it’s just a watch when I’m eating. I haven’t bought anything for Pingping for so many years. What if I bought a watch. They go to college and many students buy it. Yes. We all bumped into her classmate wearing a piece on the wrist when we were in the mall."
Mother Li said unhappy, "That should also be discussed with me. This doesn't seem to be cheap, right? How much?"
"Three hundred two."
"..."
The other children were shocked, and then looked at Li Ping's wrist together. Although it was covered now, they felt that the light of the watch could still emerge through the thick sleeves.
Li Aihong immediately jealous, "Dad...I'm not convinced, why the eldest sister has it, we don't. We are not your daughters?"
"I wanted to buy new clothes last time, but I didn't buy it for me." Li Aijun also said with a flat mouth.
Li Aidang was only fifteen years old, and he had no idea about this, but he felt jealous. "Dad is too partial."
Mother Li said, "Look at Lao Li, if you don't discuss this important matter with me, the children will not be convinced."
Li Guoliang: "..." Don't you just buy a watch? Can there be so many things?
Li Ping glanced at the family calmly, and squeezed the watch on her wrist tightly, "Dad, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I don't know that everyone will be unhappy because of a watch. I shouldn't agree with you to buy a watch. Makes you so embarrassed. I'll take it to the mall and retire later. I can't let the family be noisy and let people watch our jokes. I can ask other classmates for the time in the future."
"Nonsense!" Li Guoliang had a sudden attack. He slapped the table fiercely.
Mother Li and the other children were stunned.
Li Guoliang rubbed his temples. No one has made him feel sorry for so many years. A watch makes a fuss. Does this house look like a family? I bought everything, can I go back?
He pointed to his son and daughter who dared not speak, "You can also want a watch, provided that you are also admitted to a good school like Jiangdong University like your elder sister. If you are not convinced, you are not allowed to eat."
Li Aihong, Li Aijun and Li Aidang: "..."
Mother Li said nervously, "Okay, Lao Li, don't be angry. The children are still young. Seeing Pingping have them, they will definitely be uncomfortable. I don't say that you are not allowed to buy Pingping, mainly not. It’s time to buy such expensive things.
He said to Li Ping,
Pingping, you won’t need your dad to buy things in the future.

Li Ping lowered her head and sighed, "Mom, I didn't find my dad to buy anything, I really just want to see my dad. Over the years, I have seen too little with my dad."
Li Guoliang felt sad. He bought things to compensate the children, but now he still makes the children sad, "Okay, what do you say the children do. I want to buy things. Do I have the right to buy something for the children?"
Li's mother didn't dare to speak, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart. His own man even scolded himself for his daughter.
Li Ping lowered her head silently, breathing out a sulky breath in her heart. Then he ate quietly with a bowl.
...
At Lao Su's house, Liu Dayong, the eldest brother of the Liu family, and his sister-in-law came home after lunch.
Su Xiaozhi will enlist in the army in mid-October. So this work must be handed over in advance.
Liu Dayong has a formal job in the fertilizer plant, and Liu's sister-in-law is a temporary worker. After changing positions this time, Liu Dayong considered that Su Xiaozhi’s job is more suitable for men, and the key is decent work, so he simply assigned his job in the fertilizer plant to his wife and replaced Su Xiaozhi’s work.
The couple smiled at Su Yu, not at all as if they were playing ruthlessly before.
Sister Liu knew very well that her sister-in-law’s in-law eldest sister had the ability, and what she said very much in the textile factory was also related to the government unit. If she takes good care of her in the future, maybe her man will have better development. So she was willing to give the money, but she still wanted to make people satisfied. In the future, while her man is in the textile factory, she will have the opportunity to communicate more.
Su Yu also has professional ethics. After taking the money, she also felt that things should be done more beautifully. He personally took Liu Dayong to the picket captain's house and asked him to recognize people. With Su Yu leading the team, the captain of the picket team took care of Liu Dayong. Let Liu Dayong feel relieved.
After arriving at home, Su Yu said seriously, "You are the relatives of the old Su family, you are Liu Mei's brother-in-law. I don't want to be an outsider, so I have to mention something. After arriving at the factory, work hard. Don’t think about cheating, doing a good job, I think of ways to promote, I don’t do a good job, and I won’t help if I am driven away."
Liu Dayong: "..."
Su Yu said again, "It has nothing to do with me. After all, I left the factory. The only person in our family is Dazhi. If you hurt him and make him lose his job, he cannot be promoted. Liu Mei."
Liu Mei stared at her brother-in-law, "Brother, you have to be up for it."
Sister Liu smiled and said, "Her eldest sister, Meizi, don't worry. We Dayong must do it well and we won't be embarrassed."
After the talks were over, Su Yu asked Su Xiaozhi to take Liu Dayong to go through the formalities at that time, and by the way, return the money borrowed to the financial side of the factory. She will not go to the factory.
She is still busy with the school team, but she doesn't have the time to deal with the trivial things at home.
Su Yu didn't even date Secretary Song because of delays in family affairs.
Secretary Song sighed on the road, always feeling uncomfortable.
Su Yu pursed her lips and ignored him. Pretend not to hear.
When he arrived at the school gate, Su Yu stuffed him a rectangular paper box from his schoolbag.
Secretary Song smelled a scent, "What are you doing?"
"Here you are, I see you smell this smell, your face is very intoxicated, you should like this smell."
Secretary Song suddenly felt guilty.
Su Yu smiled and put it in his hand, and whispered, "Take it back and use it, I like the taste too."
Secretary Song felt a fire rushing up all over her body. Dry mouth. I meditated in my heart, not to think too much, not to think randomly, not to blaspheme Comrade Xiaosu!
Seeing his red face, Su Yu turned and entered the school with a smile.
