Chapter 178 Misunderstanding by the future mother-in-law(1/2)
Chapter 178 The misunderstanding of the future mother-in-law (additional update)
After Chen Li gave Xia Kun and the other three instructions, he sent the three guys to the Erlong Reservoir.
These three guys, Xia Kun and Tang Xiaojun, were quite smart. They ran to the canteen and bought a bunch of snacks and beer, and then took two motorcycles to Erlong Reservoir.
If I didn't know this, I would have thought that these three guys were going to the reservoir to play.
As for Chen Li, he walked around the street and found no fruit seller.
But this is normal, today is not a market day, and there are no special fruit stalls in Erlong Town.
After thinking about it, Chen Li ran to the grocery store in town and bought a carton of milk, and then some bulk chocolate.
"Uncle~ I'll put my things here first. I'll go home and get something."
Chen Li quickly ran back to the grain station and got into his parents' bedroom.
Chen Guofu and Wang Dongmei are writing orders and preparing for Chen Li to run a school wine the day after tomorrow.
The Chen family and the Li family are different~!
Li Yuan's father, Li Dazhi, had conflicts with many people before, but Chen Li's father did not.
Moreover, because the grain depot was responsible for handing over grain, many people in Erlong Town received small favors from Chen Guofu.
After all, these days, who doesn’t have a relative with a rural registered permanent residence?
The people at the grain station raised their hands and gave the grain a slightly higher rating. That's money!
Therefore, compared to Li Dazhi, Chen Guofu's popularity in Erlong Town is much wider.
Li Yuan held a school banquet and prepared a total of fifteen tables, which were not even full.
However, it was not possible for Chen Li to organize a banquet. There were twenty tables in one round, and Chen Guofu directly prepared two rounds, that is, forty tables.
This is just for lunch! In the evening, a few tables need to be prepared.
"Dad~ I remember there are two bottles of Quanxing Daqu at home, right?"
Chen Li began to scan the room, but he didn't know where the two bottles of wine were hidden by his old man.
"What? You don't need such good wine to run a school!"
When Chen Guofu heard his son ask about the wine, his eyes widened.
Although Quanxing Daqu is not as good as Maotai Wuliangye, it has become a famous wine thanks to the football trend these days.
As the reputation increases, the price will naturally increase as well. We are just running a wine school, so we don’t need such expensive wine.
"No, didn't we make an appointment to go out with Liu Qingqing today?"
"I plan to go to her house and give her mother something by the way."
Chen Li shrank his neck, his old man's glare was a bit scary.
"Going to Qingqing's house?"
Chen Guofu stood up. Not only did he stand up, but Wang Dongmei also stood up.
The two people obviously misunderstood something, but they quickly came to their senses.
After all, it is indeed a bit early!
However, when Chen Li goes back to Liu Qingqing's house, especially after Chen Li and Liu Qingqing have established a relationship, it still needs to be taken seriously.
At this moment, Chen Li's parents already knew about the relationship between the two. Neither Chen Guofu nor Wang Dongmei had anything to criticize about Liu Qingqing.
Not only is she pretty, but her key grades are pretty good, and she is also sensible and polite.
If such a child were to become the daughter-in-law of the Chen family, both Chen Guofu and Wang Dongmei would support it with both hands.
"Why don't you go back first? What kind of gift should you give me to Quanxing Daqu?"
"Give me this~!"
As Chen Guofu spoke, he stepped on a stool and took down a bottle of Maotai directly from the wardrobe.
"I will give this to you now. There are two bottles of Wuliangye in front of the house~ I will give them to you after your mother accepts you."
Good guy. Quanxing Daqu was reluctant to use the school wine. As soon as he heard that it was going to Liu Qingqing’s house, Maotai Wuliangye was immediately arranged.
"There are also badam and raisins, please bring some with you."
Wang Dongmei also started rummaging through boxes and cabinets to look for things. It was obvious that both of them regarded Chen Li's visit to Liu Qingqing's house as more formal.
This is actually an effect that Chen Ideal achieved, but his junior high school was not aimed at his own parents, but at Liu Qingqing's mother.
Soon, a bottle of Maotai and a large bag of dried fruits were packed out.
Even Chen Xue, who was still sleeping in her cage, was "beaten" by Wang Dongmei.
"A bit discerning~!"
Wang Dongmei and Chen Xue were having a face-to-face meeting, and Chen Xue's little head was clicking rapidly.
Naturally, Chen Xue didn't want to miss this good thing of going to the theater.
So Chen Li carried his things and a small tail to the grocery store, picked up the milk and candies he bought before, and walked directly towards the government compound.
Along the way, Chen Xue kept chattering and asking questions, almost all of which were about the issues between Chen Li and Liu Qingqing.
"Brother~, are you and Sister Qingqing going to get married in the future?"
"Brother, will you and Sister Qingqing stay in Yanjing in the future?"
"Brother~"
"Shut up~! Otherwise I won't take you with me."
"Oh~!"
Under the pressure of power, Chen Xue curled her lips, but in order to watch the show, she still kept her mouth shut.
Entering the government compound, Chen Li felt like a Muggle because he didn't even know where Liu Qingqing lived?
But just when Chen Li was about to ask Chen Xue, he had already caught a glimpse of Liu Qingqing running out of the small building on the right.
"Why did you come here?"
Obviously, Liu Qingqing was already a little impatient with waiting.
"My dad will be back soon!"
Uh~ Okay! This is actually the point.
"Something delayed me, so what? You haven't told your mother yet, have you?"
I wasted a lot of time with Xia Kun before, and then Chen Li was delayed a little more in preparing gifts, so it was almost 10 o'clock now.
Fortunately, this morning, Mayor Liu Da went to the village below to inspect the work, but he will probably be back soon by this time.
"Xiaoxue, you're here too!"
"I didn't say it! You didn't say it, why are you the one who said it?"
Liu Qingqing greeted Chen Xue, took what she was carrying, and then whispered to Chen Li in a low voice.
Chen Li was actually a little confused at the moment. It was just a normal visit.
As a result, he was first treated by his mother, an old man, with Maotai and dried fruits, as if he came to ask for marriage.
The key point is that Liu Qingqing's sneaky appearance makes Chen Li feel a little weird.
But fortunately, Chen Li still had to face this situation and nodded directly.
"Hmm~! It's okay, let's go! Let's take care of your mother first, and then we can take down this big mountain like your old man."
Chen Li was carrying wine and milk, and Liu Qingqing was carrying dried fruits and candies. The two of them, followed by Chen Xue, walked majestically into the small building in front of them.
This small building can be regarded as the family building of the government compound, but this building has a history of at least thirty or forty years.
These days, it is not fashionable to build government affairs departments as beautifully as in later generations, especially in national-level poverty-stricken counties like Huilong County. The government affairs departments in the towns and villages in the county are simply getting older and more broken.
To be fair, if each town and town reduced reception fees and other expenses by half, they would be able to build a more beautiful family building.
But hey~! Just don’t mention it!
Liu Qingqing's house is on the second floor. These days, even Mayor Liu's house only has a single room. It's just several single rooms connected together.
As soon as he got to the second floor, Chen Li found Liu Qingqing's mother, Jiang Rong, walking out.
"Xiao Li! Why are you here?"
"I just saw it on the window and thought I saw it wrong!"
"Uh~!"
This Aunt Jiang didn't follow the routine and caught Chen Li by surprise.
I'm so excited, has this person been watching from upstairs?
Good guy, luckily I didn't have any too close contact just now, otherwise.
"Aunt Jiang, what am I doing? I just came over to see you and Uncle Liu."
