Chapter 47: Marriage Proposal
After waiting for about 10 minutes near a pile of stalls, Han Meimei and her party finally heard a familiar voice.
"Hello, I'm back." Liu Jianming walked towards everyone and beckoned with a smile, "It seems that I was wrong just now, and I didn't see what I wanted to see for a long time, and it was really a waste of time." ”
"I'm getting more and more interested in what you're seeing." Han Meimei stared at Liu Jianming stunned, and after a while, she lowered her eyes again, "Forget it, I don't want to care too much." I've been with you for a semester, and I find that I still can't figure out what's going on in your head. ”
"Hahahaha......" Liu Jianming smirked while stroking the back of his head, while looking behind him with the corner of his eye, although he couldn't find it from his own perspective, but he knew that Han Meimei's father, Han Dao, was following them at this time. Liu Jianming quickly turned his gaze back after glancing at it, and asked Han Meimei as if nothing had happened.
"So what are we going to do next?"
"Oh, that's easy." Han Meimei suddenly showed a wicked smile, and her eyes seemed to be familiar to Liu Jianming. After taking out two cloth bags out of nowhere and stuffing them into Liu Jianming and Li Lei, Han Meimei smiled at the two.
"We're going to buy something, you mention."
"Isn't it!" "Isn't it!"
Liu Jianming and Li Lei wailed.
As the group shuttled through the stalls and shops, Liu Jianming suddenly felt that he had traveled back in time to the time when he helped Maya buy clothes a few months ago. Of course, this time he won't be treated like a beauty, several girls are leading in front, and he and Li Lei are two boys obediently walking behind as followers.
"Speaking of which." Liu Jianming saw that the girls in front of him were shopping, and accosted Li Lei beside him, "What are you going to do in the summer vacation for more than a month, to be honest, I have no idea at all." ”
"Let's work for half a month, and then find time to play." Li Lei replied affirmatively, it seems that he had planned it a long time ago.
"Oh, that's great." Liu Jianming couldn't help but express his admiration, because his summer vacation has always been spent with air conditioning and computers, and he has never tried anything like a part-time job. "Subsidize the family, or just make some pocket money?"
"I just want to make more money." Li Lei's expression suddenly became a little hippie smile, "You know, my summer plan, remember what I told you, you should understand." ”
"That's pretty good, too. I earn my own money, and I don't have that kind of consciousness yet. Liu Jianming gave Li Lei a thumbs up.
"It's just forced." Li Lei smiled bitterly, "It's quite expensive to want to play with a woman." ”
"Hey, you two come here!" Han Meimei stuck out her head at the door of a store and shouted to the two, "Let's see how it works." ”
"Effect?" Liu Jianming and Li Lei walked to the store suspiciously, and when they walked in, they found that this was a clothing store, and they were selling some clothes that were quite ancient and ethnic style. Han Meimei took the clothes on her body and turned around at the two.
Han Meimei was wearing a dress that Liu Jianming had seen in many martial arts TV series at this time, and she also changed her hair and inserted a hairpin, which looked like she had traveled directly from ancient times. If you add a hat and a sword, it looks like a woman. But when Han Meimei proudly showed her clothes to the two, she found that the focus of the two was not on herself.
At the center of Liu Jianming and Li Lei's eyes stood the twins Lucy and Lily, who felt a little embarrassed to be stared at like this. Liu Jianming and Li Lei looked at the twins, stretched out their left hands to cover their noses, and then they gave the two of them a thumbs up with their right hands in sync.
"It's amazing!"
The twins are both wearing a red cheongsam, and the clothes themselves highlight the convex and concave figures of the two, not to mention that the white arms and legs of the two are exposed, and Liu Jianming and Li Lei can't take their eyes off it. And I don't know if the clerk specially prepared it for the two, both of them were holding an oil-paper umbrella, and the combination of elegance and sexiness made Liu Jianming and Li Lei unable to take their eyes off it.
Han Meimei watched the two of them look at the Lucy Lily twins with impure eyes, and she was angry. He walked around behind them and gave them a hard blow on the head.
"Two perverts, have you seen enough?!"
Liu Jianming turned his head and asked weakly to Han Meimei.
"Well, can I take another look."
Han Meimei replied with a harder tap.
==========================
After purchasing almost two cloth bags, Han Meimei led everyone back to the Han family compound with satisfaction. Since it was close to lunchtime, the group went to have lunch not long after they returned.
This time, not only Uncle Han appeared at the table, but even Han Meimei's mother also appeared at the table. Although Han Meimei's mother's appearance is not as bevelous as Uncle Han shows, she can't tell that she is a woman in her 40s. From Liu Jianming's point of view, Han's mother looks like she has just reached 30 years old.
Han's mother behaves like a textbook-like mature woman in various stories, elegant and solemn, and generous. However, although she behaved very approachable, Liu Jianming still saw from some subtle traces that she was a strict mother-type person, after all, Han Dao doted on his daughter too much, so a lot of the responsibility for educating her daughter probably fell on Han's mother. For example, when Han Meimei was eating, a little negligent behavior would be pointed out by Han's mother, although Han's mother didn't say anything serious in front of everyone, but obviously Han Meimei didn't dare to talk back, but obediently did it. Of course, Liu Jianming does not intend to interfere, on the one hand, he can't manage other people's family affairs, and on the other hand, strict family education is not a bad thing, he can only hope that Han's mother can be measured.
Since this meal could only be regarded as a daily form of lunch, the Han family did not prepare any complicated processes, and the group left the table after a simple meal. Han Meimei decided to find a ventilated place to sit and rest, Li Lei went directly back to the guest room to sleep, the Strauss twins decided to try on the pile of clothes and decorations they bought in the morning, and Liu Jianming said that he wanted to see the scenery in the compound, so he left everyone.
After Liu Jianming left the dining table, he looked around the courtyard. The turquoise water, delicate rockeries, and thick trees that can be seen everywhere, combined with the fragrance of birds and flowers, made Liu Jianming feel much happier all of a sudden. Liu Jianming breathed in the fresh air while observing the time in his field of vision, and about ten minutes later, Liu Jianming left.
"Well, that's the time."
Liu Jianming followed the instructions he had given when he met with the other party in the morning, and came to the door of an inconspicuous small room. Liu Jianming didn't knock on the door, but directly entered the house, there was a very low small table in the room, Han Dao was already sitting on the ground on the side of the table at this time, seeing Liu Jianming coming, he hurriedly beckoned Liu Jianming to sit on the other side of the table. After Liu Jianming sat down, Han Dao directly poured a glass of wine and put it in front of him.
"Uncle Han, this is really." Liu Jianming pushed the wine glass back with a wry smile, "I'm still a minor." ”
"Don't pretend to be you, kid." Han Dao directly put the glass of wine back in front of Liu Jianming, "You don't know about the few of you who drank with my daughter yesterday?" I see that I am in my own home, and I can rest assured, if you dare to do this outside, be careful that I break your dog's legs! ”
"I know, I know, I'll just drink it." Liu Jianming reluctantly drank the glass of wine, and a burning sensation came from his body, making him cough twice.
"I can only drink beer." After coughing, Liu Jianming breathed a sigh of relief.
"Beer?" Han Dao sneered twice, "That ** pee-like thing is only drunk by a sissy." With that, Han Dao picked up the wine glass, drained it in one gulp, and then was refilled with a glass of wine by Liu Jianming.
"Alright, alright." Liu Jianming hurriedly stopped Han Dao, "Didn't you call me here this morning to specifically ask me for a drink?" ”
"You kid wants to be beautiful." Seeing that Liu Jianming didn't drink, Han Dao took the cup and drank it in one go, "Only my best brother can drink with me, I came to you for something else." ”
After speaking, Han Dao leaned forward and asked Liu Jianming in a serious tone.
"Do you like my Xiaomei?"
Liu Jianming, who had just finished coughing, heard this, and suddenly coughed again, and after a while, Liu Jianming gasped again.
"What are you talking about, Uncle Han?!"
"Don't try to fool the past." Han Dao stared at Liu Jianming's eyes tightly, "Answer me." ”
Seeing Han Dao's serious expression, Liu Jianming could only shrug his shoulders.
"I'll admit, I like her." Liu Jianming spread his hands, "She is beautiful, has a good personality, and treats people very kindly, many boys in our class like her, and I am no exception." ”
"Ever thought about being with her?"
"Honestly, no." Liu Jianming shook his head, and then fell into deep thought, "But if you can stay with her, I think it's a very good thing." ”
After speaking, Liu Jianming also looked at Han Dao.
"That's my answer, then, are you trying to teach me a lesson about this bad boy who has a heart for your daughter?"
When Han Dao heard this answer, he suddenly burst out laughing.
"Don't worry." Han Dao patted Liu Jianming's shoulder across the table, "I just want to see what you think of my daughter, and I'm relieved if you think so." ”
Liu Jianming tilted his head suspiciously, and Han Dao began to say his thoughts to Liu Jianming.
"I've been watching your actions this morning, and then I've finally realized something terrible." Han Dao said this and sighed, "She actually smiled, you must know that I haven't seen her smile for three whole years." I always thought it was because of her personality change, but from today's observation, it doesn't seem to be the case. ”
"So, it's the same thing I said last time." Liu Jianming paused, "The situation is with the son-in-law you chose." ”
Speaking of this topic, Han Dao suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Tell me, boy, do you think I'm treating my daughter like an object to be disposed of?"
Liu Jianming paused when he heard Han Dao ask. Then, he nodded.
"From what I've observed so far," Liu Jianming shrugged, "if I'm not mistaken, the freedom to love should be written in the law." ”
"Actually, I didn't make it clear." Han Dao sighed, "I didn't say that Xiaomei must not marry him, I just said that if Xiaomei can't find a son-in-law who can satisfy me, then marry him." ”
"Is that okay?" Liu Jianming shook his head, "Let's not talk about what the woman thinks, the man is willing to do this?" ”
"That's why I admire him so much." Han Dao said that he was quite proud of the son-in-law he chose, "After I told him about it, he actually agreed without hesitation, I remember what he said at the time was, 'If Meimei can't choose me, it can only mean that we have no fate, all I can do is wish her happiness', which is really great!" ”
Liu Jianming's eyebrows furrowed after hearing this, and he felt that things were not as simple as Han Dao said. However, since he didn't have any evidence, he chose to keep his thoughts to himself, so he decided to ask something else that he cared about.
"So, can you tell me, what kind of man is qualified to be your son-in-law?"
"Oh, that's easy." Han Dao began to count his requirements, "The door is right...... It's a plus to be there, but there are probably not a few in the neighborhood that can match my door, so I don't force it. The academic qualifications must be high, at the level of the Imperial University, and of course it is very good to study in Germany. If you want to be handsome, at least not lower than the average. The body should also be good, at least very healthy, not sick, short and fat, and ...... By the way, I must also be able to do things for our Han family, since I want to be my son-in-law, some industrial affairs must also be dealt with......"
"Don't talk about that yet, okay." Liu Jianming saw that Han Dao was starting to talk about it, and hurriedly stopped him, "You can't recruit anyone at all with this request!" ”
"Of course!" Han Dao replied categorically, "My daughter can only marry the best man!" ”
Liu Jianming sat on the ground and didn't know what to say, but at this moment, he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked Han Dao.
"Then I have doubts, what do you think of a person who does not meet the academic requirements you mentioned, but whose development is no worse than what you say?"
"Huh?" Han Dao was very puzzled, "What do you want to say?" ”
"Let's give you an example." Liu Jianming raised a finger, "Suppose there is a person, although he only has a high Chinese credential, but he still relies on his own efforts and becomes an official at a young age, of course, his appearance, body and character are not bad, what do you think of such a person." ”
"To be honest, I don't feel good about this kind of person." Han Dao began to think, "First of all, you have to see what kind of official it is, and not a police squad leader will say that he is an official." Secondly, I have to examine my appearance and character by myself, and it doesn't make sense to say more by myself. Of course, this person must have been brought by my daughter, and I don't want to send it to the door myself. ”
"Oh, that's easy." For some reason, Liu Jianming suddenly showed a wicked smile, and Han Dao was very surprised when he saw it, as if he saw the expression on Han Meimei's face from Liu Jianming's face. Liu Jianming cleared his throat and said to Han Dao seriously.
"Uncle Han, oh no. Dad, please marry Xiaomei to me! ”
