Chapter 130
130 Chapter 129, Seemed To Be His Style
“This is my future brother-in-law, right?” Li Lei turned around and looked at Zhang Kun, taking the initiative to greet him.
Li Xu said a little uncomfortably, “He’s Zhang Kun, Xiao Yong’s master. He’s working in the government canteen now.”
Zhang Kun quickly reached out his hand, “Hello, Xiao Lei!”
Li Lei hugged Ji Yuanyuan with one hand and shook hands with Zhang Kun with the other. “Hello, Brother-in-law. I heard about you from my parents this afternoon. Thanks to you these past days.”
Zhang Kun smiled, “It’s nothing!”
“Brother-in-law, come in quickly. The food is ready. We’re just waiting for you guys to come in, “Li Lei beckoned Zhang Kun into the house.
Zhang Kun extended his hand toward Ji Yuanyuan, “Come with Uncle Zhang. Your Eldest Uncle must be very tired after taking the long train!”
“I’m not tired. Let me carry…” Li Lei was about to decline when he saw Ji Yuanyuan in his arms open her arms toward Zhang Kun.
Li Lei smiled as he sent Ji Yuanyuan into Zhang Kun’s arms, “Looks like Uncle Zhang is more important than Eldest Uncle.”
Ji Yuanyuan forced a smile in Zhang Kun’s arms and replied in a childish voice, “No, Uncle Zhang is as important as Eldest Uncle.”
Although his niece and were not as close with him as this future brother-in-law, Li Lei was quite happy.
After all, children would not lie.
She would be close to whoever was good to her. It seemed that this future brother-in-law was really good to the children.
He looked at Li Xu and sighed in his heart. Fortunately, Elder Sister found the right person this time.
The eldest son had returned home after so many years, and it was his granddaughter’s birthday. Li Zhiming and Liu Guihua both attached great importance to this feast.
The small dining table was full of dishes.
The old couple should have been busy for the whole afternoon.
During the meal, Liu Guihua sighed, “The only thing missing is Miaomiao. If Miaomiao were here, our family would be reunited.”
Li Lei said, “Miaomiao is struggling for a good future. Mother, you should be happy!”
Miaomiao was different from them when she left.
“This is called a golden Phoenix flying out of a mountain nest.” Li Yong drank some wine and said with a smile.
After saying that, everyone laughed.
The atmosphere was good and everyone was happy. A few men drank a few glasses.
Everyone’s faces were stained with drunkenness.
Taking advantage of their happiness, Li Yong took out the clothes he bought for Li Lei and said with a look of disdain, “Brother, you’ve been wearing training clothes for eight years. Aren’t you tired of wearing them? I bought a set of clothes for you, try them on!”
“This set of clothes is very easy to wear. It’s very comfortable and durable. I still have two new ones over there. I’ll give you one later,” Li Lei said with some pride.
Li Xu also urged him, “Hurry up and put it on. You won’t be cold even if you wear short sleeves at this time!”
Li Yong did not waste time with him. He stood up directly and pulled him into the west room.
A moment later, the conversation between the two brothers could be heard from the west room.
“These clothes are so flowery. Can I wear them?”
“Why not? These are the most popular clothes this year.”
“I won’t wear them. I don’t like wearing them.”
“Your likes? What else do you like besides training clothes? You’ve already come out. You have to get used to life outside as soon as possible. The military-style doesn’t work well outside.”
“I…”
“Don’t talk. I spent a month’s salary to buy this for you. I can’t even bear to buy such an expensive one for myself.”
…
Ji Yuanyuan quietly moved closer to Li Xu’s ear and said in a low voice, “Second Uncle won’t buy a flowery shirt, right?”
Li Xu nodded thoughtfully, “It looks like his style!”
A moment later, Li Lei and Li Yong came out of the west room. Ji Yuanyuan and Li Xu looked at each other and smiled.
It was indeed Li Yong’s style.
He wore a flowery shirt on top, a leather jacket on the outside, and a pair of black bell-bottomed pants on the bottom.
If you put this outfit on Li Yong, it might be very fashionable.
But on Li Lei’s face, there were only four words, awe-inspiring by upholding justice!
Li Lei’s face and this outfit really did not match.
However, Li Yong proudly showed it to everyone, “How is it? Isn’t my Brother handsome in this?”
Everyone did not say anything. After all, this set of clothes cost a lot!
It was not the clothes’ fault!
Only Ji Yuanyuan asked, “Second Uncle, can this set of clothes be returned?”
With just one question, Li Yong’s face turned black, “What are you saying?”
“Didn’t you say that it cost you more than a month’s salary? Wouldn’t it be a waste if you can’t return it?” Ji Yuanyuan looked at Li Lei.
Li Yong looked at this and that. In that instant, he began to doubt himself.
This was clearly quite good-looking!
“Actually, this leather jacket is still okay.” Finally, Li Xu said in a fair manner, “Just change the inner shirt and the pants.”
Li Lei heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “That’s fine, I’ll take the leather jacket. See if you can return this shirt and pants. If you can’t, you can keep them for yourself.”
“Oh,” Li Yong said in disappointment.
Ji Zi’ang went forward and held Li Lei’s hand, “Uncle, my Mom bought you a new bicycle, you’ll definitely like it. Let’s go out and try it out. It’s really easy to ride.”
“It’s so late at night. Why ride it? Let’s try it tomorrow!” Li Xu rebuked.
“Oh, right, isn’t tomorrow the big market at Qili Village? It’s not easy for you to come back. Take the children and go shopping!” Liu Guihua said.
Ji Zi’ang was excited when he heard about the big gathering. “Okay, okay. Eldest Uncle, you can use the new bicycle to drive me tomorrow!”
Li Lei rubbed Ji Zi’ang’s head and said somewhat embarrassedly, “I didn’t bring anything for you when I came back. You even bought me this and that. How embarrassing!”
At this moment, Zhang Kun coughed lightly and took out a small box from his pocket.
“Xiao Lei, this is a gift from me to you,” Zhang Kun said, “Your discharge from the army is a big deal. Your life will be completely different from before.”
The box was opened and inside was a watch.
Li Xu was a little surprised and whispered, “Didn’t I tell you not to buy anything?”
Zhang Kun smiled, “It’s okay, it’s not expensive!”
“No, Brother-in-law, I can’t take it. I heard from my parents that when Miaomiao went to school, you already gave her a gift. I can’t let you spend so much money every time…”
“If you feel bad about it, just wait until your sister and I get married and give us a big red packet.” Zhang Kun directly put the watch in Li Lei’s hand.
Li Lei was stunned for a moment, and then he said in a low voice, “Okay! I promise to give you a big red packet when the time comes!”
When he returned from the army, he did not bring anything else but a lot of money!
The family ate and drank until it was past ten o’clock.
The few men drank a little too much. After Liu Guihua and Li Xu tidied up the table, they said, “Your father and I will sleep in the field. You make arrangements for these people!”
As soon as Liu Guihua finished speaking, Li Yong said, “There’s no need, Mother. Father and I will sleep in the field tonight. You stay here and have a good talk with Big Brother tonight!”
