Rebirth 78, the beginning of the marriage was broken off by the female educated youth

After noon, approaching noon, the power of Yanjing's summer was fully released.

The little bit of coolness from last night's rainstorm had long been swept away.

Li Xiangnan took a tree branch and helped his mother Zhu Qiuju pat the quilt in the middle courtyard.

Qin Ruobai was sitting on a chair, helping his father sort the herbs.

The old father, Li Fugui, had his feet on the mortar, crushing the herbs with his feet to grind them into powder.

"Mom, Xiao Xu and I bought a lot of school supplies at Wangfujing Department Store a few days ago. I'll ask someone to send them back to Lijia Village when I go to work tomorrow! Chaodong, Dingxi and Yuanbei will need them!" Qin Ruobai was plucking the roots of beard, and her words showed her concern for the younger generation of the Li family.

Zhu Qiuju was very moved when she heard this. "If we talk about caring, Ruobai, you are more meticulous in your work. I didn't think of it this much!"

"That's right!" Li Xiangnan returned to the eaves from the sunlight and took the teacup handed to him by his mother. "Ruobai is always careful!"

Qin Ruobai said embarrassedly: "I am just following suit, I learned it from my mother!"

Li Fugui smiled gently.

Li Xiangnan turned his head to glance at the calendar in the room and thought, "Chaodong will take the college entrance examination in July. There are only a few days left! He must be very confident after using the stationery you sent him!"

"Time flies!" Li Fugui sighed after hearing this.

Qin Ruobai and Zhu Qiuju both looked at Li Xiangnan unconsciously.

Now it’s time for Li Chaodong to take the college entrance examination. It seems like just a blink of an eye since Li Xiangnan last took the college entrance examination, but two years have already passed.

"Xiangnan, today is Sunday, Chaodong should be at home, give him a call in the evening!" Qin Ruobai reminded again.

"That's what I meant!"

Li Xiangnan did not comment.

Two years ago, I took the college entrance examination and won the first place, becoming the top student in high school. In two years, my life has changed almost dramatically.

As Li Chaodong's cousin, no matter how he performs in the exam, he hopes to be worthy of his efforts.

"southward!"

As they were talking, a voice suddenly called out at the door of the middle courtyard. Everyone turned their heads and looked, feeling delighted.

"Old Duan, why are you here?" Li Xiangnan was overjoyed when he saw that it was Duan Sijiu. He quickly put down his teacup and went to greet him.

Behind them, Qin Ruobai, Zhu Qiuju and Li Fugui had already stood up.

Duan Sijiu still looked dark and thin, wearing a shirt with a frayed collar and a pair of thick glasses on his nose, with the temples wrapped with white tape. One look at him made it clear which old finance officer he was.

But today, he had a thick brown paper bag under his arm, and in his other hand he was holding a net bag filled with a lot of various dried fish.

"Fortunately you are at home!" Duan Sijiu grinned, reached out and patted the other person's arm, took Li Xiangnan's cigarette, but did not stop, and went straight up the steps of the main hall of the Li family.

“Uncle and aunt, Ruobai!”

"Xiao Duan, please come in!" Zhu Qiuju called out and carried the stool into the house.

Qin Ruobai hurried to pour tea.

"Look at you, you just came, but you always take things! You are being too formal, Xiao Duan!" Li Fugui also reached out and handed over a cigarette.

"Uncle, this is not worth much. It is the fish sent by my family. I don't have anything else at home, so this is enough! Please don't despise it!" Duan Sijiu grinned and agreed.

"No way, come and sit down!" Li Fugui waved his hand, took his net bag and looked at it curiously.

"Have some tea!" Qin Ruobai brought the tea over and reminded with a smile, "Summer vacation is coming, you must let your daughter come to Yanjing. I like her!"

Duan Sijiu remembered how he was almost wrongly accused of hooliganism by his brother-in-law and was sent to the police station. At that time, Qin Ruobai and Song Yi took their daughter to play for several days. His heart warmed and he stood up to take the tea. "I will definitely find a way to get her and her family to come over and play!"

"That's good!" Qin Ruobai glanced at her mother-in-law, and after getting the message, she immediately said, "It's almost noon, let's eat here! Don't refuse!"

Duan Sijiu just opened his mouth to refuse, but his hand was grabbed by Li Xiangnan, "Old Duan, it's a rare visit for you, just sit still!"

"Xiangnan, I... I just have something to say and I'm about to leave!" Duan Sijiu was a little embarrassed, but when he looked up at Li Xiangnan's sincere expression and tone, he immediately accepted it, "Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Ruobai!"

"Hey, what are you talking about? Don't be so formal!" Li Fugui laughed and knew that they had something to say, so he went back to grind the herbs.

Duan Sijiu did not hesitate. He pulled out the envelope from under his arm and placed it neatly on the table.

"Count it up, 1600 yuan in total! I've included the cost of getting the license plate and the service fee! The car alone is 1500 yuan..."

"Hey?"

Li Xiangnan's hand that was wiping his sweat immediately stopped, and his eyes fixed on the envelope.

The brown paper bag had sharp edges, revealing the banknotes inside.

"You settled the money of several companies so quickly?" Li Xiangnan was a little surprised.

"You're not the type to spend money recklessly! Although I'm your company's financial director and have the authority to review and advise you on how you spend your money, I'm just an employee after all. This is still your money!"

"Besides, you waited until now to buy this motorcycle, not just on impulse! Buying it will help the company's future development and operations! I agree! Otherwise, you'd be running back and forth between so many companies, and the time you'd spend on the road would be a huge waste! So..."

Li Xiangnan tilted his head.

Duan Sijiu smiled shrewdly, "I told a few of the finance guys, and no one disagreed! I took advantage of my break this morning and made an appointment with the bank to withdraw the money, and I'll send it directly to you! I feel at ease, and so should you!"

Li Xiangnan felt a warm feeling in his heart.

This old Duan, who works in finance and data, is usually very serious and you can say that you can't get a word out of him even if you hit him with three sticks. However, when he does things, he is still so careful and reliable.

"Old Duan, you are so thoughtful!" Li Xiangnan smiled slightly, without counting, shook the brown paper bag and put it aside.

Duan Sijiu took a sip from his teacup and said, "You happen to have some time today, so why not get this done?"

"That's what I was planning!" Li Xiangnan nodded. "Call Defa and Zimo this afternoon and go check out the car together!"

"Then my mission is accomplished!" Duan Sijiu chuckled, feeling relieved. He rubbed his hands and looked in Zhu Qiuju's direction. "Xiangnan, every time I come back, I can't bear to leave. I just miss my aunt's pickles. You have to have a drink with me at noon. I've been thinking about it for a long time!"

"Hahaha!" The room was suddenly filled with laughter.

After dinner, Wang Defa and Song Zimo, who were called by phone, hurried into the yard one after another.

"What happened?" Wang Defa's shirt was soaked with sweat in front and back.

Song Zimo also kept wiping his sweat off his face. As soon as he entered the house, he looked for a palm-leaf fan to cool himself down. "Brother Nan, what's the hurry? Why did you insist on me riding my bike? I can't drive here faster. What happened?"

Li Xiangnan hugged the two guys and said with a chuckle, "Of course there's something going on. It's a big deal!"

Wang Defa and Song Zimo looked at each other, their faces full of confusion.

Seeing their expressions, Li Xiangnan smiled slightly and said, "Let's go buy a motorcycle!"

"!!!"

"Holy crap! Is this true? Do you really want to buy it?"

The two cobblers were overjoyed and rushed to the largest hardware, electrical and chemical store on Qianmen Street under the scorching sun.
