But since the other party is unwilling, saying a lot of nice things will definitely not work, so we have to start from other aspects.

Just then, the third uncle glanced at Yu Haitang out of the corner of his eye, then looked at Li Jianjun, and suddenly he had an idea.

Just then, Yu Haitang got up to go to the restroom, and Yu Li followed behind her.

The two people left the house one after the other.

With Yu Haitang not around, things are much easier.

So, taking advantage of Yu Haitang's absence, Yan Bugui spoke to Li Jianjun.

"Jianjun, as the saying goes, a man should marry when he is of age, and a woman should marry when she is of age."

“You’re 21 this year, it’s time to think about marriage.”

"Yes, you saw Haitang just now too. She's a pretty girl, and she's one of the most beautiful girls in your Red Star Steel Rolling Mill."

"If you're interested in him, I can put in a good word for you two."

Yan Bugui changed his approach, trying to gain leverage over Li Jianjun through Yu Haitang.

The condition for the exchange was that Li Jianjun help his two sons find jobs.

The old man had already planned that he would introduce jobs to his two sons once he had found them employment.

Meanwhile, Li Jianjun sneered when he heard Yan Bugui say that.

That old fox is still fooling himself.

In the TV series, the Third Uncle claimed that he would introduce Ran Qiuye from school to Sha Zhu and accepted a gift from Sha Zhu.

After accepting the gift, he did nothing and never even considered connecting Sha Zhu and Ran Qiuye.

When Sha Zhu questioned him, he implied that Sha Zhu was not good enough for Ran Qiuye.

This is Yan Bugui, who takes money but does nothing.

It seems that Yan Bugui is trying to repeat the same trick on himself.

If Li Jianjun hadn't watched this TV series, he probably would have been fooled like Sha Zhu.

When the time came, after he foolishly found jobs for his two sons, Yan Bugui refused to introduce Yu Haitang to him for various reasons.

Li Jianjun had seen through this tactic long ago, so he directly rejected him.

"Uncle, relationships between people depend on fate. Whether or not we are introduced is irrelevant."

"If I really liked her, I would have gone after her directly. There would be no need for anyone else to introduce me."

Li Jianjun directly blocked Yan Bugui's escape route. Damn it, trying to use this to control him? No way.

Li Jianjun is no fool; he won't let others manipulate him at will.

After he finished speaking, the Third Uncle's face immediately darkened.

This Li Jianjun is really stubborn and won't listen to reason.

No matter what advice Yan Bugui gave him or what traps he set for him, Li Jianjun wouldn't fall for them or be fooled.

Even the three middle-aged women sitting to the side seemed a little embarrassed.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, she quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Jianjun is right. Young people today are much more open-minded than we were back then."

"Besides, this really depends on fate."

"Jianjun, keep eating your food."

Li Jianjun patted his belly; he was already full.

"Aunties, I'm full. Thank you for your hospitality today."

"I go first."

Watching Li Jianjun's retreating figure, Yan Bugui and the three aunts were a little confused.

"This Li Jianjun, he won't even accept a wife no matter what we say. Where can you find a girl as pretty as Haitang?"

The three grandmas curled their lips.

"Exactly, this Li Jianjun really doesn't know what's good for him. If we told other men, they would have been scrambling to curry favor with us by now."

Just then, Yu Haitang and Yu Li returned.

The three aunts stopped Yan Bugui.

"Old Yan, stop talking, Haitang is here."

Chapter 116 Li Jianjun's感动 (Moved)

Yu Haitang and Yu Li entered the house, but Li Jianjun was nowhere to be seen. Moreover, Yan Bugui and his wife had strange expressions, looking worried and troubled.

Yan Jiefang was eating pig's head meat with chopsticks when the third auntie got really annoyed and started cursing at him.

"Eat, eat, eat, all you ever do is eat."

In front of outsiders, the three aunts said this to Yan Jiefang, and Yu Haitang found it hard to believe how he was discriminated against at home.

He's in his early twenties, by his own reckoning.

Yu Haitang was puzzled and asked Yan Bugui.

"Uncle, what happened? Why did Li Jianjun leave?"

Yan Jiefang felt very wronged and blurted out a sentence.

“My parents asked Li Jianjun to help me find a job, but Li Jianjun disagreed and just left.”

Yu Haitang and Yu Li then understood what had happened, especially Yu Li, who felt that her father-in-law's actions were very inappropriate.

"Dad, we don't usually have any connection with Li Jianjun's family, so why did you suddenly ask Li Jianjun to help Jiefang find a job?"

Yan Bugui couldn't easily show his emotions in front of his daughter-in-law.

"When Li Jianjun came over for dinner, I just asked him about it casually."

“Our Jiefang is so outstanding, he can find a job anywhere.”

Yu Li knew that her father-in-law had been humiliated by Li Jianjun, and she was just trying to make herself look good.

So she continued speaking in accordance with her father-in-law's words.

"Yes, yes, Dad is right."

However, Yu Haitang had her own ideas.

"Uncle, in my opinion, it's not that Li Jianjun doesn't want to help. These days, state-owned enterprises are all very selective, and sometimes even the factory director can't decide who to hire. So don't blame Jianjun too much."

Yu Haitang, working at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, certainly knew how difficult it was to place people in jobs.

She and Yu Li also have a younger brother; if they could have been placed there, they would have done so long ago.

They had acquaintances at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, but even they couldn't get a job there, let alone Li Jianjun, who had no background or family connections.

By saying this, Yu Haitang was essentially defending or speaking out in defense of Li Jianjun.

Yu Li realized that the "Comrade Li" that Yu Haitang was talking about had now become Jianjun.

The way she addressed him was so affectionate, it was as if she and Li Jianjun were dating.

However, Yu Li didn't ask any more questions in front of everyone.

However, Yu Haitang's words made Yan Bugui lose face. This little girl doesn't consider the consequences of her words at all. Why is she siding with outsiders?

She is Yu Li's younger sister, and in principle she should be on the same page as the Yan family, but now she's siding with outsiders.

Although Yan Bugui didn't say anything, the embarrassment in his eyes was unmistakable.

This meal was originally prepared specifically for Yu Haitang, but since things have turned sour, Yan Bugui and his wife can no longer hide their expressions.

Seeing this, Yu Haitang felt there was no need to stay any longer.

"Sis, I'm going back now. I'll come back another day."

Having drunk two glasses of wine, Yu Haitang, who is not a heavy drinker, was walking unsteadily and seemed quite sober.

Yu Li was very worried.

"Since you're already drunk, there's no need to go back tonight. Just stay here for the night."

“I’ll have Jiecheng and Jiefang squeeze into the same room so the two of us sisters can have a good talk.”

In the past, Yu Haitang would have been eager to talk to her sister more, but now she clearly has no interest in doing so.

"Forget it, sis. I just remembered, Dad's asthma medication is finished. I'll go to the pharmacy on the street later and buy him some more."

Yu Haitang has always been very opinionated and does whatever she says she will do. Yu Li knows she can't stop her, so she simply lets her be.

At this moment, Yan Bugui's wife, Third Aunt, also felt a little embarrassed and grabbed Yu Haitang's hand.

"What did Haitang say? Why is she leaving so soon after arriving?"

"Besides, isn't it safe for a girl like you to walk alone at night?"

This struck a chord with Yu Haitang, but she was already drunk at the moment.

"It's...it's nothing...it's not completely dark yet..."

Yu Li was very worried.

"If you really want to leave, I won't stop you. I'll have your brother-in-law Jiecheng see you off."

However, Yu Haitang rejected this suggestion.

"Sister, are you deliberately trying to get people to gossip about me? It's not a good look if people see your husband taking your sister home late at night."

At this point, Yu Haitang was still fussing over this. Yu Li thought it over and over but couldn't find a solution, so she decided to go and see her off herself.

"Forget it, you're not married yet, it's worrying to go back in the dark."

"Let me take you home."

Yu Li helped Yu Haitang slowly walk out of the courtyard. Even if Yan Jiecheng wanted to help, he was afraid of being scolded by his wife.

When I reached the gate of the courtyard house, I ran into Li Jianjun, who was returning from the toilet.
