Lord! Give up, my wife is a black and white vest
Chapter 37 Wen Li: "S Continent is going to be auctioned?"; Wen Ming returns to China and
Fresh air, gentle breeze. Wen Li was lying on a rocking chair under a tree in the yard, with a large palm-leaf fan covering his face.
The cicadas have begun to chirp.
General Black ran around the yard chasing chickens and ducks, and the golden bells around his neck made a tinkling sound.
Seeing someone coming, the playing Black General immediately turned around and shouted to the people outside the yard.
"Is it Wen Li?"
A middle-aged woman passed by the gate and stopped.
When Wen Li heard the loud voice, he took off the palm-leaf fan from his face and showed it to the other person, then covered it back.
"Is it really Wen Li? Didn't he go back to the big city to live a good life with his rich father?"
Wen Li replied, "Come back for summer vacation."
The middle-aged woman took out a handful of melon seeds and leaned over the low wall skillfully. "Come and tell me, are you living in a villa now? How is your rich father treating you? Was the one who picked you up last time the mother your father married? Is your stepmother not treating you well? I saw it the last time she came to pick you up. Don't be so arrogant and look down on others. Xiao Li, you are so honest, you haven't been bullied by her, have you? If you have been bullied, you must tell me and I will help you."
Wen Li didn't even open her eyes and said lazily, "Dongshan Villa District, east bank of Chaoyang Park, East Fourth Ring Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing. Go, Auntie."
The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "I don't know the way. I'll come back next time when I know the way. Hey, how many brothers and sisters did your rich father give you? I see you're not wearing any jewelry. Are those clothes you're wearing designer? They look the same to me as you used to wear. Did he give you less food and clothes?"
The middle-aged woman continued to talk to herself for a long time, then asked Wen Li with a smile: "Xiao Li? Have you found a boyfriend in Beijing?"
Wen Li: "No."
"Listen to your auntie, there are many opportunities in big cities. You can find a rich second-generation rich man to marry in Beijing. With your looks and figure, becoming a rich wife shouldn't be a problem."
Wen Li's little face beneath the palm-leaf fan was expressionless, but she replied obediently, "Okay, I'll bring it back to you next time I hand it in."
Although Wen Li was not completely at ease in dealing with these neighbors, he was at least somewhat adept at it.
"If you really become a rich lady in the future, don't forget your aunt's contribution." The middle-aged woman was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
"Li Li, come in and eat." The old lady called from inside.
"Xiao Li, your grandma is calling you to eat, come in quickly." The middle-aged woman said with a smile.
Wen Li opened his eyes, stood up from the recliner with a palm-leaf fan in his hand, and looked at the middle-aged woman lying on the wall.
Wen Li wore a casual short-sleeved shirt, with her cold white arms exposed and shining in the sun, and a pair of floral ice silk trousers that her grandmother bought on the street for ten yuan.
This rustic outfit looks better on Wen Li than any branded one.
She looked at the middle-aged woman, gently moved her facial features, and slowly smiled at the woman.
"You are so cute and pretty. You are destined to be a rich lady. Go and have your meal. Your aunt is going home for dinner too." The middle-aged woman smiled and turned away.
Wen Li walked into the house, filled two bowls of rice and sat down.
The old lady brought out the last dish and placed it in front of Wen Li. After sitting down, she pushed a few more dishes in front of Wen Li.
"Eat quickly, these are all your favorites."
The old lady kept picking up food for Wen Li and forgot to eat herself. Her loving eyes were reluctant to leave Wen Li's face.
When Wen Li had almost finished eating, the old lady finally asked out her concerns: "Li Li, why do you look worse than before? Tell me the truth, is your illness serious?"
Wen Li: "I stayed up too late before, and I have a headache. I'll take some medicine for a while and pay attention to my sleep and rest schedule, and I'll be fine. Don't worry."
The old lady was relieved. "That's good. Don't stay up late in the future. You're still so young, your body can't handle such hardship. You didn't know that you came back with a pale face that day, which scared grandma. After that, I had a headache from time to time and almost fainted a few times. Grandma didn't get a good night's sleep during that time."
"In the past, you would go out during summer vacation and never come back when school started. This summer, you stayed at home and took care of your health."
The old lady kept nagging, not forgetting to pick up some food for Wen Li: "Eat more quickly, you look so thin. Tomorrow, grandma will kill a chicken for you."
It is impossible for her to stay at home and do nothing for more than two months' vacation. Apart from other things, she cannot miss the upcoming annual boxing championship in S continent.
Wen Li plans to rush to S Continent to participate in a boxing match in three weeks, and put other things on hold for now.
However, a phone call from Jiang Yingbai forced her to advance her trip.
Wen Li: "You said S Continent is going to be auctioned?"
"The governor died in a riot last week, less than three weeks after taking office. This is already the third... number this year... Let me count." Jiang Yingbai couldn't count.
"The local government has given up. A few days ago, they announced they'd put this continent up for auction. It's now wild. So, are you thinking of trying another continent? Although S Continent is a mess, it has plenty of minerals."
Wen Li smiled: "I just like chaos."
Wen Li is at ease at home.
The Wen family is preparing a grand banquet here.
Wen Ming, the eldest son of the Wen family, is returning to China. He is already old and it is time for him to join the company and familiarize himself with the business. Wen Baixiang is waiting for Wen Ming to take over the company after he retires.
So they planned to hold a welcoming banquet for Wen Ming, so that Wen Ming could get to know some people in the business circle, with whom he would have to deal in the future.
"Since Xiao Li has returned to Mingcheng, there is no need to notify her, right?" Lin Yun said thoughtfully.
Wen Baixiang hesitated.
He initially arranged for Wen Li to go to No. 6 Middle School instead of No. 1 Middle School because he didn't want people to know that he had a daughter named Wen Li.
If Wen Li had attended that day, there would have been gossip.
But this banquet was held for Wen Ming. Wen Li, the younger sister, had never met this elder brother and had never attended such an occasion since she was a child. As a father, he felt uncomfortable excluding her.
Lin Yun: "Don't accuse me of being nosy. With Wen Li's temper, there's no telling what might happen at the banquet. The people who came that day are all important figures. She has always been tactless in her actions. If something goes wrong, everyone might just laugh it off, but if it affects the company, it will be a big deal."
Wen Baixiang thought about Wen Li's temper and what he had done during this period, and after much deliberation, he finally agreed to Lin Yun's suggestion.
After Wen Baixiang went upstairs,
Wen Xin said to her mother, "Mom, why don't you let her attend? Wouldn't it be better to let her embarrass herself at the banquet? Maybe she'll be kicked out by Dad this time."
Lin Yun: "If she's really that stupid and causes trouble at the banquet and gets kicked out by your father, that's fine, but what if she doesn't? With her looks, do you think you'll have a chance to show off at the banquet? Besides, I don't want people to know that the Wen family has a second daughter who's not presentable. That would bring shame to our entire Wen family."
After a few days,
Wen Li at home received a call from Song Baiyan.
"Mr. Wen, you're in Mingcheng, right? Will you be attending your family's welcoming banquet tomorrow? If you are, I'll bring Zhixian along to join in the fun."
Wen Li lay on the recliner, eyebrows raised slightly, and said lazily: "Welcoming banquet?"
Song Baiyan asked in confusion, "Don't you know? Wen Ming, the eldest son of the Wen family, your eldest brother, has returned to China."
After hanging up the phone, Wen Li sat up and looked at the black general gnawing on the big bone on the ground. He waved his palm-leaf fan and said, "I'll take you to a big dinner tomorrow~"
