Traveling through the 1980s: The female supporting role is changing the plot again

Chapter 41

"Did you see, he looks energetic! Working in the city, he went to a technical secondary school, and he is a serious worker who eats commercial food! If you can find him, you will definitely enjoy happiness in the future! I heard you right!" Li Lu and Wang Meilan were busy in the kitchen, Li Lu said to Wang Meilan while cooking.

Li Lu's abacus struck. There was only one son in the old Chen family who had not married yet. His family was living a good life. If his niece could get married in the future, what would the two families be divided between? Some people gossip.

I mean, Chen Qianfan is now a salaried person. If he marries a daughter-in-law, wouldn’t the money be taken care of by her?When the time comes, it will be a matter of course to support his family and recruit Chen Lei.This kind of good thing cannot come cheap to others!Thinking that the money Pei and her daughter had saved all their lives would go to her family, Li Lu seemed to have a hand full of money, and the piece of pork belly also felt particularly delicious.

Wang Meilan looked at Li Lu's happy expression and understood her plan in her heart, but when her mother called her over, she also had her own Xiao Jiujiu.Wang Meilan also has a younger brother who is in middle school, and the family needs subsidies even more... "Auntie, my conditions are so good, I don't think he is very interested... Can he agree?"

Li Lu complained: "You didn't even dare to say a word to him just now. How could he be interested? Are you a fairy?!" After saying that, she felt that her words were a bit harsh and quickly came back, "But I think our family members You are the most handsome, but he doesn't take a good look at you. If you stay here for a few days, I will ask Chen Lei to call him out to play every day. You will gradually get to know each other after we meet a few times."

Wang Meilan's face turned red again and she muttered, "I listen to my aunt!"

Li Lu smiled with satisfaction and sent Wang Meilan to bring some fried dishes and some wine out from time to time.Watching Wang Meilan deliver the food, her face fell. She felt distressed that she had eaten a lot of food in one meal today and spent a lot of oil.Next, I didn’t want to fry it anymore. I just patted the cucumber and thought it would be a cold dish.

At the dinner table, Chen Lei's brothers and Murakami's friends ate together. It turned out that today was Chen Lei's birthday, and everyone celebrated with such a meal. It was very lively.When friends from the same village saw Wang Meilan serving wine and food attentively, they all made fun of Chen Lei.

"Leizi, is this the marriage your mother arranged for you?"

Before Chen Leicai could swallow it, he said anxiously: "This is Meilan, my cousin! I've come to play at home before, so you can't talk nonsense!"

As soon as the topic of engagement was brought up, someone asked Chen Qianfan, "I heard that Captain Yangjiazhuang's daughter is pretty and well-educated. Her conditions are amazing..."

"Qianfan, didn't you go on a blind date a few days ago?"

In fact, families with marriageable girls in the village have long been interested in Chen Qianfan's conditions, and there are also people who want to match match.But before Lao Chen's family didn't mention it, no one rushed to ask. Now everyone from Yangjiazhuang came to go on a blind date, and everyone couldn't sit still.

"The captain's daughter must be very high-spirited! Didn't I hear that she likes a soldier in their village?"

"I heard people say that this girl jumped into the river for that soldier!"

Chen Qianfan listened to the brothers' speculations without getting angry or expressing his position. He smiled calmly and said, "You know what you know quite clearly? Do you know anyone from Yangjiazhuang?"

"Hahaha, that's right! We are not from Yangjiazhuang, who are you listening to gossip? You, a big man, can imitate the bad-mouthed women in the village for your unhappiness!"

"Come and eat vegetables! Eat vegetables!"

"Why didn't anyone tell me about a partner?" Some people were worried.

A group of people were laughing and joking, and got the birthday boy Chen Lei drunk first.There was little food left on the table, but no one had enough to eat.Because of Chen Lei's face, he didn't say anything. When he left, he secretly laughed at Li Lu for being stingy and trying to make her look fat by inviting so many people to eat.

Chen Qianfan's house is next door. He helped Chen Lei to put him on the bed before leaving last.He walked outside the yard. The summer night was cool and the breeze was blowing on his face. He suddenly thought of an idiom, like a spring breeze.

He pursed his lips and was about to walk back to his yard when he heard a weak female voice.

"Brother Qianfan, are you not full? I still have a steamed bun here, which I didn't want to eat just now...Here it is for you, don't be hungry, I will definitely run out of food when I get home at this time."

It was rare for Wang Meilan to say so many words. She looked at Chen Qianfan and smiled very shyly.

Chen Qianfan looked at the two-faced steamed bun in Wang Meilan's hand and took a step back slightly. They were half a street apart.He shook his head and said, "No need."

After he finished speaking, he left, looking a little indifferent. Wang Meilan's courage was shattered, and she did not dare to catch up, so she could only return to Li Lu's house.The bun was gradually tightened in her hand.

Wang Meilan's family usually can't even eat steamed buns with two-height noodles like this. They can only eat steamed buns made of cornmeal. During the Chinese New Year, they can only eat some white noodles.Li Lu's family was already very wealthy compared to his own, but Chen Qianfan obviously didn't take this seriously.

She mused. Being able to eat commercial food was a great advantage. She must not be so shy anymore. She would take this opportunity to hug Chen Qianfan no matter what!There was a determination to win in Wang Meilan's eyes.

When Chen Qianfan returned home, the second daughter Pei also turned on a lamp for him.

She was wearing a gown and, under the light of a lamp, patched the trousers worn by Chen Baogen to work.When she saw Chen Qianfan returning home, she frowned and fetched him some water.

"You smell of alcohol all over, let you drink less! Always disobedient."

Chen Qianfan unbuttoned his collar and washed his face, and said vaguely: "I remember, the smell of wine belongs to Chen Lei. He got drunk and slept like a dead pig. I put him on the bed."

The second daughter Pei handed a towel to the side, "Then will Li Lu introduce you to someone?"

Chen Qianfan said: "Her niece is here."

The second daughter Pei clapped her hands, "I knew it! It must be your idea!"

The second daughter Pei was a little worried as she said, "We didn't look at anyone before, and no one dared to make any plans for you. Ever since Captain Yang's daughter went on a blind date with you, people have come to ask me."

Even the daughter-in-law inquired about Chen Qianfan and wanted to introduce her sister to him.After seeing so many people, the second daughter Pei found out that Yang Muchun's family was in the best condition, and she was also handsome and polite.But if Chen Qianfan didn't like her, he wouldn't be able to hang himself from a tree, so he didn't dare to say anything to others.

"I'll go to Yang Xianglian's house tomorrow and ask if they are willing. When can we meet again? If it doesn't work, let's forget it!" The second daughter Pei asked tentatively.

Chen Qianfan soaked his feet in the basin, thought for a while and said, "It's okay. I'll go back to the city tomorrow and stop by Yangjiazhuang."

The second daughter Pei said in surprise: "That's it! If Mom gives you the little money, take one of the watermelons at home!" Yangjiazhuang is not on the same road as the city, so Chen Qianfan agreed!
