MTL - The Fairy Just Wants To Lie Down-Chapter 8 Does Li Yi live here?
Chapter 8 May I ask if Li Yi lives here?
At the banquet, whoever has the best mix is the loudest, and his uncle Li Xinglong is obviously the most dazzling star, drinking liquor and talking loudly.
Suit and leather shoes, white lining slightly bulging beer belly, wearing a gold watch, wearing leather shoes, dressed like a coal boss. I heard from my father that my uncle caught up with the good policies a few years ago, and he can earn several million dollars a year by selling sand to the government. He is considered one of the richest people in the village.
And when people have money, they like to show off the most. This uncle paid for this banquet to attract people.
"Li Li heard that you are studying abroad, what major are you studying?"
"finance."
The daughter of the uncle's family, Li Lili, is tall and slender, with shawl and long hair, exquisite makeup, and her clothes don't look like rural people at all.
But she was not originally from the countryside, and lived in the city since she was a child. Li Yi has a little impression of this little girl. He often helped her with tutoring to earn extra money. At that time, she was a little girl who often went out crazy because of her family's money.
Li Yi worked as a teacher and a nanny for his uncle's high tuition fees, and often went to bars and Internet cafes to arrest people.
Unexpectedly, that crazy girl back then was already slim, and ten years for a mortal is really long.
"Lily has become a beauty after a few years, does she have a boyfriend?" a woman asked.
The topic among the elders can never be separated from this. When I was in school, I was afraid of puppy love, and I wanted to get married immediately after graduation.
Li Li smiled slightly: "I just went on a blind date some time ago, and it's from the Zhou family in Yuzhong."
"The Zhou family with five surnames and seven looks?!"
"It is."
"This is a rich man, Lily, you have to work harder to get it, don't miss it."
Surprises came from around one after another, and Li Yi yawned again in a very inappropriate way. It's not that he was looking for faults, but that he was too exhausted last night, and he was too sleepy after waking up early today. However, there were many people around, and he covered his mouth carefully, but he still couldn't escape Li Lili's eyes.
Since entering the door, Li Lili has been secretly paying attention to Li Yi.
Li Yi is a very special existence to the children of the Li family. Their parents taught them that they must move out of Li Yi, and Li Li is no exception. In a sense, they were indoctrinated to be like Li Yi since childhood.
The relationship between Li Lili and Li Yi used to be bad because of tutoring. But it is undeniable that she really admired this cousin very much back then, and even gave birth to some unnecessary feelings.
But that was when she was a child, now she is better than Li Yi, and has a better life and future. And he is just a poor man who has been sleeping for 10 years now.
Li Lili admits that she is despicably looking forward to Li Yi's envious look. After all, as her childhood shadow, any reaction from the other party always makes her have inexplicable expectations.
But Li Yi didn't look at himself directly from the beginning to the end, not even for a moment. He was as casual as ever, and the laziness between his brows was the same as it was 10 years ago.
This made Li Lili very dissatisfied.
"Cousin, what are your plans for the future? Do you have any plans to repeat your studies? You should have a junior high school degree now, and it's hard to find a job when you go out."
Li Yi didn't expect Li Li to ask himself suddenly, originally wanted to be a little transparent to get through today, but now it's all right, all eyes are gathered at once.
"Take a step and look at one step, it's all like this anyway." Li Yi shrugged, still looking open, looking somewhat self-defeating to outsiders.
Li Lili felt like punching cotton.
"Does my cousin really not consider repeating studies? You were expected to be in Beijing back then. Although the textbooks are not ten years ago, you should be able to be admitted to a good school based on your talent. The vice principal of Yucheng No. 1 Middle School is me. I can help you with my high school classmates."
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding atmosphere group suddenly exclaimed.
"Lily is amazing, she actually knows the leader of No. 1 Middle School."
"Lily, my son will be promoted to high school next year, can you help my second aunt get away with it?"
Beside , a gentle-looking man wearing glasses also said: "I work in the Education Bureau, and I can also help inquire about the number of repetition places."
"Li Ning is promising, and even entered the Education Bureau."
"It's better to be trained by the elder brother. The younger one in my family can only be a real estate manager, and he can't enter the government at all."
"Hello manager, the house is like a cornucopia now, and the price is one a day. My child is really bad. He didn't finish college and went to Qiguo to do business with others. He didn't come back several times throughout the year."
Unknowingly, the relatives entered a new round of competition, and Li Yi could clearly feel that the uncle had the upper hand.
Li Lili and Li Ning are indeed very promising. One is working in a large company and studying finance which sounds very high-end. One works in the Education Bureau. This is a high-ranking official in the eyes of rural people, and he should be curry favor with him.
The uncle, who felt that he had gained face twice, was also smiling, and the compliments from the people around him were very modest and did not match his own attire.
Li Yi poured a drink from a disposable plastic cup, and watched his relatives show off their skills to him calmly.
Don't look at their extremely enthusiastic looks now, they may not answer the phone later.
But his parents obviously don't think so. Seeing their hopeful expressions, Li Yi can only eat two more bites of food, which means they really helped him.
At this moment, the uncle suddenly opened his mouth and brought the topic back on track: "Li Yi, I heard that the fourth brother wants to repeat?"
Before he could answer, Li Xingguo, who was next to him, immediately spoke up: "Brother, my family Yi'er is talented. He was the first in the city every year in terms of grades, and he was also able to rank in Fangzhou. Our Li family has a person who can read. It's easy, if you can pass the test in Shenjing, you might be able to make a fortune."
Teijing University, the top university in the Zhou Kingdom, is also the fastest way for ordinary people to achieve a class leap. It can be said to be the Guozijian of Zhou State, and graduating from here means half a foot into the official class.
"It makes sense, this talent can't be wasted." The uncle thought for a while, and immediately said: "Leave this matter to me. I know the principal of Yucheng No. 1 High School, and I will arrange enrollment next year."
Although he is rich now, he is a merchant after all. If he really wants to honor his ancestors, he still has to be an official. I definitely can't do it myself, why not turn around and sponsor a talented nephew.
"Thank you, brother, thank you very much." Li Xingguo smiled happily, bowed his head repeatedly, toasted and passed cigarettes.
"Li Yi, thank you uncle soon."
Li Yi frowned indiscernibly, and then stretched out, the vague laziness of his facial features lingering.
The past 10 years have indeed had a great impact on the parents. His father's literati arrogance has long been weathered, and he has a great responsibility.
"Thank you, uncle."
"Well, studying is the only way out. As long as you can pass the entrance examination in Shenjing, my Li family will be a glorious ancestor. Look at Li Laosi, if he had studied in a university back then, he wouldn't be what he is now."
"Brother learned the lesson well." Li Xingguo's smile became a bit far-fetched, "Yi Er, you can't learn from me, you must go to a good university."
Li Yi knew that his father's grades were better than his uncle's. When he was in junior high school, he accidentally found out his father's admission letter for the college entrance examination, which was a first-class university in China. But because the Li family couldn't afford two college students, in the end they only let the eldest son, the uncle, go to a second-rate university.
boring
"I'm going to the toilet." Li Yi got up and left the dining table without looking back, which made the atmosphere a little awkward.
Father Li came to his senses and quickly apologized: "This kid has a high spirit and doesn't know how to behave. I will definitely teach him a lesson when I get back."
"They are all useless people who have been sleeping for ten years, and they are still so proud." Li Ning sneered. He has been unhappy with Li Yi since he was a child, and now he sees Li Yi in such a downcast state, and it is a lie to say that he is unhappy.
The sound was not loud, but everyone present heard it, and the atmosphere became more silent for a while.
Li Ning also knew that he had said something wrong, so he lowered his head to eat, but did not continue to laugh. This is not acting in a TV series. We are all relatives and not enemies. We can't say they are close, but we usually help each other when we are busy. At the beginning of the year, Li Yi's medical expenses were also funded by everyone. He laughed at his brother face to face like this, and he was about to be stabbed in the back.
Li Yi is indeed useless, but it's not good to say it.
Uncle’s face was also a little uncomfortable, if it weren’t for the crowd, he would have cursed.
"I'm going to see Brother Yi." Li Lili sensibly stood up to rescue her silly brother.
Li Lili just walked out of the gate, and she was stunned.
Long queues of black cars drove through the narrow village road, attracting the attention of countless villagers. Anyone with knowledge can see that the license plates on these vehicles are very special, official license plates starting with 00.
The vehicle stopped in front of the Li family ancestral hall, and the Li family who were eating stopped their dishes.
The car door opened, and people in different costumes stepped out, and each of them had a different temperament than ordinary people.
Headed by three people are Qin State envoy Wei Ren, Qingzhou Police Department special adviser Zhang Kelin, Zhou Hua, eldest son of Zhou and president of Xihe Group.
Wei Ren glanced at the banner hanging at the door [Celebration of the Li Family's recovery from a serious illness], and he asked in a deep voice: "Excuse me, does Mr. Li Yi live here?"
Gentlemen, please follow up
