Chapter 226: On Marriage (2nd Update)
In summer, while eating dumplings, I listened to the conversation between Ye Zhiqing and Qu Lei......
"Is your mother well? This time the pavilion went to your house and caused her trouble. ”
After Ye Zhiqing asked, he saw that Qu Lei wanted to speak and stopped, and spoke again comfortingly: "Call us uncles and aunts at home, feel free, don't be nervous." After speaking, he motioned to Ye Boxuan to pour him a glass of wine.
Ye Zhiqing held the wine glass and looked at Qu Lei with slightly squinted eyes. There was scrutiny in his eyes, a little satisfaction, and it was complicated.
That kind of mentality of swaying left and right is uncertain, Ye Zhiqing thinks that it is very different from himself. It is more prudent to marry a daughter. It is said that a woman's marriage is a second reincarnation, and he Ye Zhiqing has pampered his daughter in the palm of his hand for nearly 20 years, and he hopes to find a good son-in-law who is qualified to take over.
The young man in front of him, he is sure that he is a qualified soldier, but he doesn't know if he can be a good son with responsibility, whether he can stand up to the backbone of the family and become an excellent and good husband......
Can Qu Lei say that he is not nervous if he is not nervous? He clenched his chopsticks and thought about his lines.
In the summer, I saw Qu Lei take a deep breath before answering, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he went straight to the point and grasped the key point:
"Uncle, uncle, my mother is quite satisfied with the pavilion. I want to ask the two of us the exact date. I said that when I came back and listened to your and my aunt's opinions, I would write to her again. I, uncle, I'm not young, and I know each other well, I want to ...... I know I've climbed high ......."
Qu Lei's face turned red, and even his neck began to show redness, and he couldn't go on with a squeak.
He doesn't speak tactfully, and he forgets the phrases he has come up with as soon as he opens his mouth. In the end, it evolved into a simple and straightforward statement, and the last sentence was even a little sad and lonely.
Summer also sighed in her heart: Qu Lei is more conscious than her! Gao Pan? Alas! She always feels good about herself, has a lot of self-confidence, and is not aware of the word.
I wasn't so modest when I wasn't married, and now, of course, it's even more natural.
At this moment, when I saw Qu Lei's appearance, I remembered the criteria for finding objects in this era. Ingredients, work, money, she seems to be very poor. A rural female soldier earns more than ten yuan. She felt tall and tall.
Where does the confidence come from? Is it because it comes from the Hereafter? Can you foretell some information about the future? I felt like I was crazy and hard enough. Domineering enough?
I don't know whether to evaluate my own mental qi as a disadvantage or an advantage......
For a while, several people at the dinner table stopped their chopsticks. No one spoke for two or three minutes. After Qu Lei finished speaking, his face was already red, his head hung silent, and his palms were clenching his chopsticks hard.
Ye Zhiqing tilted his neck and dried the glass of wine in his hand, before turning his head to look at Ye Boting and asking:
"Then I'll hear what you mean. Let's talk about ...... straight to the point."
"Old Ye!"
Ye Zhiqing waved his hand to stop Song Yaping's words: "Their meaning is very important. Our family is a democratic family. Don't do the same thing. Simple things. Don't beat around the bush. Do you have confidence in building a revolutionary family that works together to fight? ”
After Ye Zhiqing finished speaking, everyone's eyes were on Ye Boting.
Ye Boting bit his chopsticks and stared at the plate.
Qu Lei finally changed from hanging his head to looking up at Ye Boting. There was urgency in his eyes.
He waited. On the way back from his house, Ye Boting could talk and laugh, but he never talked about this kind of topic, and talked to him about his thoughts without any longing. He felt that this matter could not be delayed any longer, and he had to break through head-on.
Xia felt that because he was sitting next to Ye Boting, he was implicated by her, so he didn't dare to look up and face everyone.
Summer turned his head sideways and peeked at Ye Boting, and found that he was actually in a daze at the critical moment. I really ate a plate of dumplings first and I wasn't hungry, so please figure out the situation.
I had to get married before, but now I'm stunned, it's a little late, right? Qu Lei can wait for you to answer, he usually shouts a hundred times, and he doesn't give strength at critical moments. Okay, while the big guys are here, you say!
With his left hand, he gently pulled the corner of Ye Boting's clothes under the table.
Ye Boting reacted and turned his head to look at the summer.
Summer......
Ye Boxuan reminded Ye Boting, and his tone was a little strict: "Tingzi, what did Dad ask you?" ”
Song Yaping also frowned and looked at Ye Boting, displeased Ye Boting's behavior of biting chopsticks, disliked Ye Boting's non-Qu Lei and did not marry, and did not like Qu Lei's attitude of tearing this layer of paper straight to the point, and now he has a must-have answer.
But she knew in her heart, no matter how unhappy she was, she could still stop it if she came to this point? Her son and her daughter, in the matter of marriage, she can't control any of them, and her arms can't twist her thighs.
Her daughter went to her hometown with someone, and her daughter came back with someone else and brought it home, alas! She knows Lao Ye too well, and now it's time to finally make a statement, as long as the pavilion nods, Lao Ye doesn't care about the Qu family's conditions. The answer doesn't even need to be said to be guessed.
"Dad, you and Mom should set a date."
In this era, most of the girl's family cannot have a direct opinion on their marriage, but the Ye family is democratic and open enough, and they still respect their ideas and listen to their opinions.
Qu Lei's eyes lit up and he smiled instantly, as if he was afraid that it would be too abrupt, maybe he was afraid that he would not be reserved enough, in short, he suppressed his smile, but he still couldn't help but look in the direction of Ye Zhiqing and Ye Boxuan with excitement on his face.
Ye Zhiqing nodded, signaled that he understood, and drank another glass of wine.
Song Yaping looked at Qu Lei with a smile: "Shall we eat first?" Let's talk about it later. Xiao Qu, after eating, you have to tell us in detail about your family. ”
Ye Boxuan poured Qu Lei a glass of wine and expressed his opinion: "For the future, you must also have a plan. ”
"Yes! Head! After Qu Lei finished speaking, he felt that he was stupid with joy, and as soon as he stood up excitedly, he immediately sat down, and scratched his head with a smirk: "Well, brother." Then while eating dumplings, he didn't forget to secretly observe Ye Boting's face.
And Ye Boting's face has always remained pink.
After the meal, Summer continued to tie her little blue apron and began to clean up the table and wash the dishes. This time, Ye Boting didn't use her brother's reminder, so she took the initiative to help.
When he was in the kitchen, Ye Boting was in a daze as if he was painting next to him, and he couldn't watch it in the summer, so he leaned closer and asked in a low voice: "Did anything unpleasant happen to Qu Lei's house?" Why are you so soulless? ”
Ye Boting wanted to say something, opened his mouth and closed it again, seeing that Xia was in a hurry, and he was entangled with his expression. She is the most annoying to others, and those who watch it scratch their hearts and livers.
"I can tell you Ah Tingzi, a lifetime of things, don't agree without thinking it through. This is not to be confused. What are you embarrassed to refuse or something, to hell with those thoughts! Also, don't give me a sentence now, it's Dad who asked about it and had to agree, then you're too confused......"
Ye Boting showed a crying and laughing expression: "When did I say I didn't want to get married." I really don't want to, can I let my dad set a date! It's just that in terms of living habits, it does ...... Alas! I'll go to your house later, and we'll talk about it later. ”
After finishing speaking, as soon as he put the rice bowls in the pool, he shook his hand and was about to leave, leaving one person in the summer to face the pots and pans in the pool...... (To be continued......)
