Yi Xiaomei entered the house with the child in her arms.
Seeing that her relatives had left, Feng Ruiying took a broom and swept up the debris from the fireworks that had been set off before dinner. Bending down and lowering his head to sweep the debris into a pile, a pair of feet suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. They were the feet of a man. He was wearing a pair of black leather shoes. Although they were not new, they had been put on shoe polish. When she looked up, she saw a little old man standing in front of her, staring at their house, hesitating whether to go in or not.
Feng Ruiying knew this person, he was the director of the small fishing village brewery. Although the brewery in the small fishing village was in a downturn, it was a township enterprise after all. To Feng Ruiying, Director He was a big cadre. Back then, in order to get Yi Jingchen into the brewery, they went through a lot of connections, but even so they couldn't meet this true Buddha. What kind of wind is blowing today, the true Buddha actually showed up on his own initiative?
Feng Ruiying put down the broom and walked over: "Director He, come in and have a seat?"
Director He sized Feng Ruiying up and asked, "Are you Jingchen's mother?"
The factory director actually knew her, Feng Ruiying was a little flattered, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes."
"Is Jingchen at home?"
"Not here." While speaking, she had already walked to the door and turned sideways, "Come in and sit down for a while!"
Director He hesitated for a while, then followed into the house. He walked around the living room, carefully looked at the furnishings in the room, and then looked behind each door.
It seems that they are here to visit, Feng Ruiying thought.
She poured a cup of tea for Director He: "Director He, sit down."
Director He sat on the sofa and pressed the sofa with his hand: "This sofa is really nice, isn't it genuine leather?"
Feng Ruiying said: "I don't know these things, these are all custom-made by our family Jingchen. They say that this way can not only guarantee the quality but also be cheaper."
"Jingchen knows a lot of people, even the furniture maker?"
Feng Ruiying said: "I don't care much about his affairs outside, and I can't care. As long as he doesn't mess around, I'm happy to be at ease."
Director He continued to look at the house: "I heard that this house was designed by a designer?"
"Yes, a designer from Ceylon, I heard that it costs a lot of money to ask him to draw a blueprint. But he has a good relationship with our Jingchen, so he designed it for free." Feng Ruiying couldn't restrain his excitement, "The people in the room The decoration was also designed by someone else, and it seemed a bit messy just after we invited guests."
"This house, do you plan to marry your daughter-in-law?"
Feng Ruiying said with a smile: "Jingchen said that this house was built for our old couple. But you, Director He, know that the new house in our small fishing village is not for the son to marry a wife. In the future, this house will still have to be built." to him."
Director He nodded: "However, it is very good for children to have such filial piety."
"Yes, yes!" Feng Ruiying echoed, really unable to figure out the purpose of his sudden visit today?
Director He couldn't find a topic for a while, and Feng Ruiying didn't know what to say after boasting about his son. The two sat face to face, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
"Did Director He come here today to surprise us?" Feng Ruiying answered in the affirmative. Because in this family, except for Yi Jingchen, no one can disturb the presence of the factory director.
But Director He said: "No. I just heard that your family has built a beautiful house, and I want to see the world."
Feng Ruiying did not expect that one day, her house would represent a kind of world. She smiled embarrassedly: "The child is messing around. I originally said that it would be good to build an ordinary building, but he insisted that since the ground was broken and construction started, it should be built properly so that my father and I can live comfortably."
Inadvertently, the topic brought up his son again, and he couldn't help but praise a few more words.
Director He looked out the window: "It's getting late, I should go too."
"Director He, please stay for dinner." Feng Ruiying persuaded him to stay, thinking that if he could keep the factory manager for dinner, he would be proud of himself, and it could last for several days.
"No, I'm still waiting at home!"
Factory Manager He got up to say goodbye, walked to the door, and met Ma Juyuan who had returned from seeing off Mrs. Ma. The two nodded, one went out and the other entered the house.
Ma Juyuan is confident that he knows all the guests in his mother-in-law's natal house, but he has never seen this one.
He asked softly, "Who is it?"
Feng Ruiying said: "The director of our brewery here."
"What is he doing at home?"
Feng Ruiying shook her head: "I don't know. He said he came to see the house, but I don't think he looks like this at all. I asked him if he came to see Jingchen, and he said no."
Ma Juyuan said: "I think they are here to find Jingchen."
Feng Ruiying expressed puzzlement: "If he came looking for Jingchen, why didn't he admit it?"
Ma Juyuan asked: "Does he have a daughter?"
Feng Ruiying said: "There seems to be one."
"That's right." Ma Juyuan clapped his hands, "I must have taken a fancy to Jingchen of our family and wanted him to be his son-in-law. I was also afraid that my father-in-law would be ashamed to visit my son-in-law in person, so I didn't admit it."
"Will it?" Feng Ruiying was skeptical, but his thoughts had already begun to come alive. If they really wanted to get married with the He family, then they would be considered to have dealt with officials, and their family would be able to get rid of the fate of generations of poor peasants. Although Director He is only the director of a township enterprise, he heard that he has a strong backer. He was appointed by the backer when he was the director of the brewery.
Looking at his mother-in-law's expression, Ma Juyuan knew that he was talking about her heart, so he said with certainty: "It must be so. When we go out to discuss business, the most important thing to know is to judge by appearance. There are many things that people don't talk about. From him Judging by his reaction and expression, as well as some behaviors, you need to know what he wants. You can¡¯t do things well by talking about everything.¡±
Feng Ruiying asked: "If this is the case, what should we do?"
"Of course Mom wants to find an excuse to meet the girl from the He family. If she can see it, Mom should try to match them up." Ma Juyuan felt someone standing on the stairs watching him, turned his head, and saw Yi Xiaomei. He didn't Too concerned.
Feng Ruiying said: "But Jingchen is doing well with that kid from the Yan family. Last time I introduced a partner to him, he pushed back on the spot. If he still behaves like last time, wouldn't he offend the He family?"
Ma Juyuan said: "Mom can rest assured about this. Jingchen has traveled all over the world for so many years and has met many people. Does he know that the He family can't be offended? Even if he doesn't like it, he will refuse it decently."
"Since you are doomed to look down on it, why do you bother to find this to make you unhappy?" Yi Xiaomei went downstairs slowly, "I really don't understand you guys, knowing that Yan Xi is the only one in Jingchen's heart, why do you always give them trouble?" tripper?"
Ma Juyuan said: "We are doing this for the good of Jingchen, but you are still his sister. Think about it, what is the situation of Yan's family? Yan Heping is a fish seller, Qi Yueru is in charge of a warehouse, and there is a student at home. Half a child. Even if Yanxi graduates, the teacher's salary is not high. The burden of the family will fall on Jingchen. In the future, not only will he have to support his own small family, but he will also have to take care of his father-in-law, mother-in-law and brother-in-law. Everyone, even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't handle it!"
Yi Xiaomei's face darkened: "Are you talking? Do you think we let you raise it?"
Ma Juyuan was stunned for a moment, realizing that what he had said was too much. When he married Yi Xiaomei, the situation of the Yi family was similar to that of the Yan family now. His wife and mother-in-law must think that he was complaining. Sure enough, not only the wife's face was ugly, but even the mother-in-law's face was ashen.
He hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that. The Yan family is different from ours. Qi Yueru is not as reasonable as our mother. Does anyone in Qingquan Town know that she is waiting for her daughter to turn the family around?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
