Chapter 208 Everyone is Sherlock Holmes
"Ah, it should be soon. We haven't set a date yet."
Chen Jianye was confused and couldn't help asking, "I didn't tell you in the hospital, how did you know?"
He was very confused, wondering how did she know he was getting married.
It shouldn't be.
I did a good job of keeping my secrets.
"That's what the three aunts said."
"She said you were going to look for your uncle, and she guessed that you were going to the girl's family to propose marriage."
"Is that the case?"
Several old sisters-in-law were talking about it.
"The third aunt is really amazing. She knows everything. I'm impressed."
A bitter smile appeared on Chen Jianye's lips.
I secretly thought that the third aunt was really a hidden talent.
This is not Auntie Three, this is clearly Auntie Holmes.
"What's the big deal? If you tell me, I can guess it."
"Yes, you brought the girl back to the courtyard a while ago, and now you are looking for an elder. If it's not getting married, then what else is this?"
"You are still inexperienced. It will be better if you grow up and see more things."
Several old sisters-in-law laughed.
But they had no ill intentions.
Chen Jianye responded with a few words and pushed the cart home.
After returning home, Chen Jianye calmed down and took out the books he borrowed from the library to read.
Nothing to do, just gain experience.
There is nothing to be gained from talking nonsense.
Gaining experience points will really help you level up.
Although his benchwork level is high now, the experience points required for upgrading are high.
But when he saw the experience points increasing little by little, Chen Jianye felt a sense of satisfaction.
The version circulated by the aunties in the compound has turned into that Chen Jianye admitted that he is going to get married, and it is estimated that the marriage will take place within half a month.
Chen Jianye knew nothing about this.
Even if he knew, he would not argue with others to change anything.
Getting married is not something shameful.
Ran Qiuye is very impressive in terms of appearance, personal culture, work, and family background.
Chen Jianye was not afraid of other people's comments at all.
For the next two days, Chen Jianye continued to work hard and read.
On Monday night, he went to Ran's house again.
Invite Ran Qiuye to go out for a walk.
At night, the two of them went to a corner, and Chen Jianye asked Ran Qiuye to apply glue manually.
"When will my cousin come tomorrow?"
Ran Qiuye asked after finishing her work.
"I guess we'll have dinner together after get off work in the afternoon."
"I'll take an hour off and go to my cousin's house first, then come here with him."
Chen Jianye gently stroked Ran Qiuye's hair.
After the date is set and the two of them get their marriage certificate, Ran Qiuye will no longer need to help manually.
Chen Jianye can sow seeds freely.
"Well, I'll tell my parents then."
There was a hint of anticipation on Ran Qiuye's face.
In a flash, she and Chen Jianye were at the point where the relatives of both sides sat down to discuss the marriage.
Thinking about getting married soon, Ran Qiuye felt a little nervous, but more of it was eagerness.
As a normal woman, she hopes to live with Chen Jianye, so that the two of them can stick together and form their own little family.
Birds grow up and fly away, and so do people.
Chen Jianye sent Ran Qiuye home and then left.
The next day, with one hour left before the end of get off work, Chen Jianye found his team leader Wang Lifa to ask for leave.
"What are you going to do?"
Wang Lifa asked normally.
"Find my cousin and go to the girl's house to discuss the marriage."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
"Yeah, we're getting married."
"You kid, since you didn't say anything, I thought you were waiting to find a partner after you became a senior worker. I didn't expect you to do it so quietly."
Wang Lifa was very surprised and happy.
He was very happy to see his younger brothers getting married and starting a family.
In this day and age, starting a family represents a very important meaning.
It is a very important indicator for leaders to judge whether a man is mature, can be entrusted with important tasks, and can start a family and build a career.
"I just happened to meet the right person, so I thought about getting married instead of dragging the girl down."
Chen Jianye said.
"Yes, you are right."
"Family is as important as work. Finding a good wife will only benefit your work, not harm it."
"Okay, you go quickly."
Wang Lifa urged.
"Thank you monitor."
Chen Jianye waved and left.
After riding his bike, he went straight to Mei Yubo's house.
On the way, Chen Jianye took out two bottles of Moutai, two packs of Huazi, and two pounds of meat and put them in a cloth bag.
This is a gift to be taken to the girl's house, so he should be the one to prepare it.
......
Came to Mei's house.
Chen Jianye saw that the door of the Mei family was open, so he stood at the door and knocked: "Uncle Mei, Aunt Wang."
"Come in, you've been here a few times, but you're still so unfamiliar."
Mei Yubo waved at Chen Jianye.
"Why didn't you change your clothes? You should dress properly when you go to the girl's house to propose marriage."
Aunt Wang had a smile on her face, but when she saw Chen Jianye wearing work clothes, she criticized him.
"It's good to wear work clothes. As a worker, what else can you wear if not work clothes?"
"Just this one, no need to change."
Mei Yubo expressed his opinion.
"Then why don't you wear work clothes?"
Aunt Wang said unhappily.
"If I wore work clothes to the Ran family, the neighbors would think that the Ran family had done something wrong."
"I'll just wear casual clothes."
Mei Yubo chuckled.
Aunt Wang took a cloth bag and asked Mei Yubo to take it.
"Uncle Mei, I've prepared cigarettes, alcohol, and meat."
Chen Jianye patted the cloth bag in front of him.
"Whatever you prepare, I have plenty."
"Listen to your Aunt Wang. Let's go to your house first. You can change into some proper clothes and leave your things at home."
Mei Yubo was furious.
"Uncle Mei, logically speaking, I should pay for the gift to the girl's house."
Chen Jianye refused.
"What's the point of this? I'm your elder, you should listen to me."
"Do you still want me to help you propose marriage to the Ran family?"
Mei Yubo said unhappily.
"Uncle Mei, I'll listen to you."
Chen Jianye no longer argued.
"Walk."
Mei Yubo threw the cloth bag to Chen Jianye and strode out of the house.
Chen Jianye took the cloth bag and slung it over his shoulder.
The two of them got on their bicycles.
"Drink less alcohol."
"Jianye, if your uncle Mei is drunk, find a police officer and ask Comrade Xiao to take him back."
Aunt Wang went out to warn them.
"Go away, when have I ever drunk too much?"
Mei Yubo said unhappily.
I feel like I have lost face.
"Don't worry, Aunt Wang. I will definitely send Uncle Mei back."
Chen Jianye promised.
The two drove towards the courtyard.
About half an hour later, Chen Jianye returned to the gate of the courtyard carrying two cloth bags.
"Uncle Mei, we're here."
Chen Jianye got off the car, picked up his bicycle and walked up the stairs.
Mei Yubo followed Chen Jianye's footsteps.
The two entered the compound.
Several old ladies who were chatting in the front yard soon noticed the arrival of Chen Jianye and Mei Yubo.
"Jianye, are you off work so early today?"
"Who is that person? He looks unfamiliar."
"This man looks very serious, like a leader."
Several old sisters-in-law discussed in a low voice.
"Don't worry, everyone. This is my cousin Mei Yubo. Come home with me to see him."
Chen Jianye explained while keeping walking.
Mei Yubo smiled at the old sisters-in-law.
The two entered Chen's house.
Chen Jianye put down the cloth bag on his body, went to the closet, took out a set of clean clothes, and changed into them quickly.
Then he stepped on the cloth bag that Mei Yubo gave him.
The two men came out of the house again.
"Hey, Jianye, get ready to go to the girl's house to discuss the marriage."
"He's dressed very neatly, and looks energetic."
"Not bad, not bad. Jianye is handsome and honest. Any girl who marries him will be blessed."
"Before, Jianye was despised, but now he is getting married."
"That's all the bad things that old lady Jia said about Jianye. She is really bad."
When several old sisters-in-law saw Chen Jianye, they all commented with smiles, as if they were looking at their own son-in-law.
