The rural daughter-in-law of the bank president
Chapter 5 Engagement
Inside the restaurant, Wei Qifeng was already waiting in a private room, but it seemed he still had some work to do. He was holding a cigarette in one hand and talking on his phone in the other. His face looked unsightly, his fleshy face, combined with his reddish-black skin, giving him a fierce look.
Lele timidly followed her godmother into the box. She didn't dare to speak and looked at Wei Qifeng, ready to give him a big smile when he looked up at her.
When Wei Qifeng heard the door open, he raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at Lin Xianglan, and then at Lele behind him. Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he stood up with a smile on his face, ignoring the phone in his hand.
"LeLe, come, LeLe, come, sit here!" He stood up, put his arm around LeLe's shoulders, and led her to the seat next to him.
Then he said coldly to the person on the other end of the phone, "That's it, let's talk about it tomorrow." and hung up.
"Hello, godfather. If you are busy, please go ahead and don't bother me." Lele said to Wei Qifeng with a smile.
"Hey, it's okay. They are just small things. They are still not quiet even after get off work." Wei Qifeng shook his head.
Lele couldn't remember when this fierce godfather began to change his attitude towards her.
(Memory dividing line----------------------------
She still remembered how her godfather rarely smiled when she first arrived at their home as a child. He always spoke in a bossy manner, whether to her or her father. He would usually ask questions, nodding if the answer was good, or looking gloomy if the answer was bad.
The first time she felt her godfather was kind to her was probably in her second year of high school. It was also during Chinese New Year when she went to pay New Year's greetings.
At that time, my godmother and her family had already moved to the city and lived there permanently, but because Wei Wuya went to school in the county, the house in the county was still there.
Wei Qifeng had already completed the preparations for the Agricultural Development Bank of China at that time, and was at the peak of his career.
To get from her home to her godmother's house, she needs to take a bus from the village to the county, and then take a bus from the county to the city. The whole journey takes more than two hours.
She didn't go alone; her father took her. But after arriving at her godmother's house, her father went to the nearby city to pay New Year's greetings to her uncle.
Godmother kept asking Lele to stay at home and spend more time with her. Later, Dad left on his own and Lele was left alone.
It suddenly started snowing heavily in the afternoon. County roads are inherently bad, especially those in the Gobi Desert, with their ups and downs and many curves. A heavy snowfall makes accidents very likely. So, our afternoon trip was canceled.
Even though his father called him, he couldn't come back, so Lele had to stay at his godmother's house.
Lele was nervous. She had never lived at her godmother's house before, and she didn't want to because it made her feel uncomfortable. She didn't know how to use many of the things in their house.
It doesn’t matter if it’s clumsy, the main thing is that I’m afraid of it being broken.
At night, her godmother thoughtfully found her pajamas. She usually wore long-sleeved shirts and long pants to sleep in winter.
In the evening, her godmother chatted with her and she went to sleep. The next morning, when she woke up, no one was home.
She knew Wei Wuya was avoiding her. They hadn't played together since middle school.
Wei Wuya had transformed from a fair-skinned boy into a chubby boy. But Lele, after she started growing up, became more and more beautiful, with her facial features developing and her figure becoming more curvy.
In high school, Lele was admitted to the key class of the county middle school from the town middle school.
In his second year of high school, Wei Wuya also joined this class. Apart from the top students from the countryside, the rest of the class consisted of county officials, merchants, and wealthy people with connections. These people didn't come to study seriously, but mostly just to get by, with arrangements for their senior year.
Lele is becoming more and more beautiful and good at studying, while Wei Wuya is tall and fat and just sits in the last row and wastes his time.
The two of them understood each other tacitly, but neither of them mentioned it, that there was such a relationship.
So, every time she came, Wei Wuya was not there.
Since it is a weekday, my godmother and godfather are probably at work.
Lele thought that after washing up, she would wait for her father to pick her up and take her home.
At around nine o'clock, the door opened. As soon as it opened, my godfather called out with a smile, "Lele, are you awake?"
Lele was surprised. Shouldn’t godfather go to work?
Lele asked his godfather awkwardly, "Why didn't you go to work?"
The godfather smiled and said, "Your godmother asked me to take you to breakfast. I've been to work, so I have nothing to do now. Let's go downstairs and have breakfast."
Lele ate with his godfather, steamed buns, porridge, and a lot of side dishes. Lele had never had such a rich breakfast before.
That was the first time Lele saw her godfather looking at her with a smile on his face.
--------------------------------------------Memory dividing line)
Lele was thinking in his heart, and he had already sat down next to his godfather. His godmother walked around and sat on the right side of Wei Qifeng. Wei Wuya was stunned for a moment, and then sat down next to Lele.
The godfather looked at Lele with a smile on his face, "I told you to come back early. There's nothing at home, and it must be hard for you to be out there alone!"
"Godfather is right." Lele smiled.
"I have already talked to your father. The weather is good now, so you and Wuya can hold the engagement ceremony on the 18th of this month. Wuya's work will probably be sorted out in the second half of the year, so you can get married on the 11th." The godfather laughed so hard that his eyes disappeared. His eyes were small to begin with.
Lele heard about this from his father on the phone, and was not surprised at all, but still felt an indescribable depression.
After a while, she could feel the fiery gazes of the three Wei family members, all staring at her.
"Okay, I'll follow your arrangements." Lele's voice was so low that it felt like no one could hear it.
The three members of the Wei family seemed to be relieved, especially Lin Xianglan, who stood up and walked behind Lele. She put her arm around Lele's shoulders and laughed loudly, "Lele has always been very sensible."
Lele tried hard to force a smile, but her face felt so stiff that she even thought her smile looked fake.
"The 18th? There are only a few days left." Lele sighed in his heart, but put on a smile on his face. After working for two years, he has learned to fake a professional smile very well.
This meal was very difficult to eat. Although there were delicacies from land and sea, lobster and abalone, Lele had no appetite at all.
My godfather also loves drinking and often drinks due to work. He drinks a lot of alcohol when he's halfway through a meal.
He ran over, took Lele's hand, and kept talking about how he would work hard to find a job for his son.
Originally, if he took the exam in his senior year, he could have gone to the school he arranged for him to attend as long as he had a low score in the academic subjects, and he could have directly joined the bank after graduation. But Wei Wuya didn't even meet that low score.
Unfortunately, after missing this year, banks began to require that bankers' children could not work in the same bank as their parents.
This time the road is blocked.
There was no other way but to use their connections to send Wei Wuya to study in another place for a few years. He got a bachelor's degree, and then he worked in a remote city bank for two years. Later, they considered using marriage as a reason. If his family was in Jiangquan City, he could apply for a transfer.
