That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 1093 No, You Are the Tiger (Two in One)

Li Juan drove home silently without saying a word along the way, but every once in a while, she would unconsciously glance at Li Ye who was sitting in the passenger seat.

When she looked at Li Ye for who knows how many times, Li Ye said calmly: "Stop looking at me, just say what you want to say, don't you feel suffocated if you keep hesitating?"

Li Juan's cheeks turned red, and after a few seconds of embarrassment, she said, "Brother, when I start working, I just need to work steadily and steadily, right?"

"."

"What else do you want? Don't you want to have a stable job?"

Li Ye was very surprised because a year ago, Li Ye had asked Li Juan about her plans after graduation so that she could plan ahead.
At that time, Li Juan expressed her attitude of "getting around in the unit", so Li Ye made corresponding arrangements. But now Li Juan suddenly asked this question, could it be that she regretted it?

So Li Ye asked: "Xiaojuan, do you want to do business like your elder sister and second sister? If you do, just say it boldly, and don't put yourself in a difficult position! It's not too late to regret now, because you will miss this opportunity and never come back again."

The eldest sister Li Yue and the second sister Fu Yiruo are now flying around all day long, which is indeed more attractive to young people than working hard in the company, so if Li Juan really wants to "live a wonderful life", Li Ye can understand.

But Li Juan quickly shook her head and said, "No, brother, I know my own worth. I am not cut out for business."

Li Ye asked in confusion: "What do you mean by what you said just now? Don't you want to go to work and stay at home to rely on your parents?"

"No, brother, no."

Li Juan shook her head like a rattle: "Brother, I would like to work in a stable company, but I feel more and more that I may not be able to do well."

"Can't do it? What can't you do?"

Li Juan's face flushed red, and after a long while she said depressedly: "Xiaoying told me that she would be responsible for running the business to help the family make money, and let me join the unit as an official. I must climb to the department level by the age of 30.

I originally thought it was nothing, but the more I came into contact with some people in the unit over the past two years, the more I felt that they were treacherous.

I like work, I like professional research, and I am willing to work hard for my family, but I can’t afford to fight with those people all day long. I can’t even deal with Xia Qinghe."

"."

“Hehe~~Hehe~~Puff~~”

Li Ye looked at Li Juan, who had a depressed face, and after holding back for a long time, he couldn't help but laugh.

First, I laughed at the fact that my younger sister was actually worrying about this reason. Second, I laughed at the girl Li Ying who had actually arranged her sister's life in advance.

Can you imagine? A few years ago, two sisters wrestled for a few lucky money!
As a result, the younger sister Li Ying, who had suffered countless losses, arranged a hell-level copy for her elder sister Li Juan.

Asking Li Juan to compete with others? Asking her to reach the rank of department director before she turns 30, your requirements are really high!

Seeing that Li Juan was depressed, Li Ye smiled and said, "Xiao Juan! First of all, let me tell you that our family does not have any specific requirements for you.
What Li Ying said to you doesn't matter. If you like professional research, then just focus on doing research after you join the company. After a period of experience, you can see if you are suitable for the path Xiaoying mentioned.

Also, don't underestimate yourself. Look at Engineer Ni. He started out as a technician, but now he's the vice president. Who says people who like to do research can't be leaders?"

Li Juan looked at Li Ye and said sullenly, "Engineer Ni is actually very capable, and Yin Changshan's skills are also very capable. They are different from me."

"What's the difference?"

Li Ye said casually: "You have just graduated and your understanding of this society is limited, so it is inevitable that you will be scared when facing some scheming people.
But this doesn’t mean you are inferior to them. A tiger that has not grown up is chased around by a dog! Then when it grows up, it will no longer be the king of beasts.”

Li Juan was stunned for a moment, then said embarrassedly: "Brother, I'm not a tiger."

"No, you are the tiger."

Li Ye said seriously: "Xiao Juan, I can tell you now that our family has interests in the mobile company.

When you go there, it may seem like you are working, but you are actually silently supervising. You don't need to get angry on the spot if you see anything, just remember it in your mind and come back to tell us.

Then you just need to observe some corresponding changes, and you will understand some things that others don’t understand. Over time, many things will fall into place naturally.”

"."

Li Juan was stunned, and finally understood why everyone was so nice to her when she was interning with Mr. Ni.

Originally, he just thought Pan Xiaoying was a "relative", Ni Dashen was his brother's friend, and Pengcheng Fengyu was a cooperative unit of Factory 506. But now she realized that the relationship between her family and the mobile company was even closer and there were actually benefits.

Over the years, Li Juan has heard Wen Leyu and Li Yue talk about the word "interest" at home, and every time they mentioned it, they were very serious, and it was obviously not a trivial matter like lending out a few melons or dates.

In addition, every Chinese New Year, Pei Wencong, Fu Guiru, Hao Jian, Jin Peng and others would hold separate meetings. Li Juan knew that there were some important things happening at home that she was not aware of.

And now, Li Juan was actually involved in this "big event", and she immediately felt like she was "entrusted with an important task".

"I understand brother, I will definitely observe and supervise carefully."

"Well, don't be so nervous. Relax a little. If you have any questions, you can ask your sister-in-law or your eldest sister. You can also ask your second sister."

"Second sister. Okay!"

When Li Juan heard Li Ye asking her to consult Fu Yiru, her "second sister", she instinctively wanted to refuse. But when she thought about the burden she now had to protect the interests of the family, she had no choice but to endure the humiliation.

Moreover, Li Juan had to admit that Fu Yiru had been in contact with various businessmen since he was a child, and was much better at doing business than her and Li Ying.

. . . . . . . . . .

When the brother and sister returned home, they found that the eldest sister Li Yue was there. She was watching Xiaodun'er, Xiaobao'er and Xiaodou'er playing happily, and was happily discussing something with Wen Leyu.

Li Ye leaned over and asked with a smile: "Big sister, it seems that something good happened today?"

Li Yue smiled and said, "Guess?"

Li Ye sneered and said, "Why do you even need to ask? It must be that Yang Yumin is going to be promoted. You are just obsessed with power now, and you don't care about anything else."

"That kid? Who are you calling a kid? I'm going to punish you."

When Li Yue heard Li Ye call Yang Yumin "that kid", he immediately became unhappy and slapped Li Ye in the face.

My younger brother is older now and has the support of his sister-in-law, so it is no longer convenient to really fight him. I can only bluff a bit.

Wen Leyu smiled and said, "Today, my brother-in-law was praised by the leader of the department. He said that the promotional video was done very well. I think you also contributed to it, so I brought a lot of things to thank you!"

"Thank me for what?"

Li Ye sat down indifferently and said, "Yang Yumin really wants to thank someone, then thank our sister. Thanking me is useless. Do I need a thank you from him?"

"Can't you say anything nice with your mouth?"

Li Yue was so angry that she stretched out her hand and wanted to twist Li Ye's arm, but when her hand was halfway out, she pulled it back helplessly.

Because what Li Ye said sounds irritating, but it is the truth.

Li Ye helps Yang Yumin, which is actually helping Li Yue. Everything the Li family does for Yang Yumin is actually to consolidate Li Yue's position in the Yang family.

If a girl is married off, like spilled water, then she will be truly helpless when she arrives at her husband's home.

But if her parents are capable and can provide support, the girl will definitely stand tall and strong.

"Alright, alright, I thank my brother, alright?"

Li Yue pouted and mumbled, then asked Li Ye: "Xiaoyu said that Xiaojuan's teacher called you over today? It's not like they want Xiaojuan to stay in school or get admitted to graduate school, why are you making so much trouble over and over again?"

Li Ye snorted and laughed, "It would be fine if I could get admission to graduate school, but I ended up getting admission to a media agency. What a waste of time."

Li Yue was stunned for a moment, then immediately became interested.

"You want to introduce a date to Xiaojuan? That's a good thing! Can you tell me what happened? What kind of date did you introduce to Xiaojuan?"

Li Ye said: "I have already rejected it for her, but Xiaojuan seems to have never considered the issue of marriage, so you two should give her more advice when you have time, and don't let her become a nerd who knows nothing."

"Yeah, yeah, you're not good at this, just leave it to us."

"."

No matter how calm a girl is, when faced with the topic of "matchmaking", she can transform herself into an emotional blogger and military strategist, asking questions thoroughly and giving advice, and can talk for two hours without getting bored.

So Li Yue and Wen Leyu readily took on this important task.

Poor Li Juan was surrounded by Li Yue and Wen Leyu in a daze. They asked her all kinds of questions and inquired about her. She was spinning like a top.

Moreover, Li Yue would often say things like "Why are you talking back, kid? Just listen to me and your sister-in-law, how can we harm you?"

Li Juan watched Li Ye walk away with the child, and she felt like crying but had no tears left.

Brother, aren’t you cheating me?
. . . . . . . . . . . .

Wen Leyu and Li Yue questioned Li Juan for a long time. Only after Li Ye coaxed the two children to sleep did she and Li Yue let Li Juan go and went back to bed.

Li Ye asked with concern: "How is it, Xiaojuan, is everything okay? Don't let studying delay your personal life."

Wen Leyu smiled and said, "You care about her so much, why didn't you ask her yourself just now?"

Li Ye said helplessly: "It's not easy for a man like me to ask! If I ask a few more questions, she will keep silent. But she said that if a boy talks to her for more than three sentences, she will ignore him. She only focuses on reading sage books. Don't become a nerd."

"No," Wen Leyu said firmly, "Li Juan is a normal child. I was like that back then, but now I have a son and a daughter."

"What nonsense are you talking about! I fell in love with you at first sight, but others didn't know your worth at all."

Li Ye interrupted Wen Leyu and hugged her tightly in his arms.

Wen Leyu was severely depressed back then and was almost becoming a mute. It was only after she met Li Ye that she regained her original brilliance.

"It's okay. I'm just telling you this. I fell in love with you at first sight too!"

Wen Leyu smiled and leaned hard into Li Ye's arms, then said: "I just told my sister-in-law that if there is a suitable boy in the future, I will introduce him to Li Juan. As long as Xiaojuan doesn't use you as a standard, there will be good news in less than two years."

"There's no need to be so anxious. What? Why are you using me as a standard?"

"Haha~"

Wen Leyu smiled and said, "You hang around in front of Xiaojuan, Xiaoruo, Xiaoying and the others all day long, and they unconsciously use you as a benchmark! But I just told Li Juan clearly that don't expect to find another one like your brother. Don't even think about it, unless you are prepared to be single for the rest of your life."

"."

Li Ye felt relieved, but he still said modestly: "Not really! I'm just a poor boy from the countryside."

Wen Leyu asked back: "Are you poor? If you are poor, how many rich people are there in this world?"

Li Ye tightened his arms and said, "Your family has high barriers to entry. When I met you, I was ready to run away if my proposal to marry you failed."

"you dare!"

Wen Leyu opened her little mouth and gently bit Li Ye.

Then she said bitterly: "When I married you, some people also said strange things to me. But now that the matter of my mother-in-law has gradually been known to others, they say that I am lucky.

So those who always use the threshold to talk about things are nothing. They can't eat grapes and say that the grapes are sour. If they really expose you, hum, you don't know how shameless they are. "Fu Guiru and Pei Wencong have publicly stated that they will increase investment in the mainland, so now some well-informed people have already known that Li Ye has a rich mother. Li Ye, this poor boy, is really not poor anymore.

Li Ye smiled and said, "Not really! Are the people around you so low level?"

"Not really? Even your sister-in-law wants to get some benefits from you. Is she low-class?"

Wen Leyu took the initiative to turn over and said with a groan: "Anyway, I have to keep a close eye on you. There are more and more vixens nowadays."

"."

That night, Li Ye's pleasure threshold reached a new height.

He felt comfortable and couldn't help but sigh.

People like Wen Leyu could have been a good candidate for the role of the "female protagonist", but because she met a time traveler like Li Ye, she was forced to stay with him and willingly became his wife and mother.

. . . . . . . . . .

Although Li Ye paid his taxes for half the night, he was in a very good mood when he woke up the next morning.

But when he saw that Li Juan had dark circles under her eyes, he was a little surprised.

"Xiaojuan, didn't you sleep well last night?"

"Ah? No. I didn't even dream."

Li Juan was insincere. Last night, Li Yue and Wen Leyu questioned her thoroughly and then she accidentally heard some bad noises. She couldn't sleep well the whole night because of the worry.

"If you didn't sleep well, then you didn't sleep well. What's there to be embarrassed about? Don't blame your elder sister and your sister-in-law for being nosy. You won't suffer any loss if you listen to them."

"Yeah, I know, bro."

Li Juan ate breakfast while yawning, and then followed Li Ye's car to school.

She fell asleep in the car, and when she opened her eyes she had already arrived at Kyoto University.

"I'm leaving, brother. I won't be going home these few days. I'm waiting for news on graduation assignments!"

"Okay, if there's anything, you must call home and don't hide anything!"

"Yeah, yeah, got it."

Li Juan got off the car and walked away quickly. She would never go back home in the next few days. Yesterday, her grandmother went to her grandfather's place. Li Ying was in school and didn't go home, so only Wen Leyu and Li Yue had a "heart-to-heart talk" with her.
If I go back today, it would be strange if Wu Juying and Li Ying, who have heard the news, don't join in and talk too much.

Just wait and see! In a few days, Han Chunmei, who was accompanying Li Kaijian in Qingshui County, would definitely go to Beijing. That would be the most annoying time!

Li Juan hurried towards the classroom. On the way, she suddenly saw Xia Qinghe having a "private chat" with Teacher Jiang.

Li Juan subconsciously felt something was strange, because Teacher Jiang's smile seemed a little stiff, which was very different from his usual carefree attitude, while Xia Qinghe's face was flushed pink, as if she was shy.

[Will Xia Qinghe still be shy? ]

If it were four years ago, Xia Qinghe was also a young girl who had just moved to the city like Li Juan, and she would blush when asked to dance by a boy at a school dance. But now Xia Qinghe has long been able to remain calm in the face of emergencies.

Li Juan was very confused, but she reacted quickly, turned around and walked away quickly. As she walked, she suddenly thought of something.

[Is Xia Qinghe going to the Electronics Research Institute? ]

At the banquet last night, Xia Qinghe was the best performer among the four classmates. Her behavior and words made Yin Changshan and Teacher Jiang feel comfortable.

However, Xia Qinghe's professional level is the worst among the four.

So Li Juan suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

. . . . . . .

Sure enough, a few days later, Li Juan's class announced their graduation assignments.

"Hu Meng. Ministry of Electronics Industry."

"."

"Li Juan. Mobile Group Corporation"

"."

"Xia Qinghe Xicheng Electronics Research Institute"

"."

When Li Juan's name was called, someone looked over quietly, because according to gossip, the treatment and development prospects of the China Mobile Group were very good. In a unit where a mobile phone sold for 20,000 yuan, a low salary would be unjust for the phone bills paid by people all over the country.

"It turns out that Li Juan didn't go to the research institute because she found a better place to go!"

At the beginning of June, many people said that Li Juan was a "child from a rich family". In recent days, there have been rumors that she has relatives in the Propaganda Department, so everyone was mentally prepared for Li Juan to get a good assignment and it was not surprising.

But when Xia Qinghe's graduation destination was announced, everyone was surprised.

Why can she stay in the capital while we have to go back to our hometown?
Although Li Juan is a "rich kid" who is envied by others, she is very professional. In the past two years, the number of papers she published in professional journals is either first or second in the class!
But what is Xia Qinghe's level? Has she published any papers?

Children born in the 1980s and 1990s were not as sophisticated as those born decades later. Many straightforward students went to argue with the teachers and questioned Xia Qinghe.

Anyway, we will all be sent back to our place of origin, and no one will see each other anymore. I will never be willing to accept this in my life unless I get everything clear.

But both the teacher and Xia Qinghe gave perfect answers. Selecting and employing people requires comprehensive considerations. Good professional grades do not mean strong work ability. In short, there is nothing wrong with it and it is very fair.

Just when everyone finished writing messages to each other and were preparing to go their separate ways, many classmates in the class received Xia Qinghe's wedding invitations.

Li Juan was shocked.

Because the name of the groom on the wedding invitation was actually Yin Wenke.

It’s only been a few days!
The scene in which Yin Wenke refused Xia Qinghe to ride on his motorcycle was still clearly visible in Li Juan's memory, but in the blink of an eye, they became a couple.

Not only Li Juan was shocked, but also other classmates and Chen Kangjian.

That night, Li Juan packed up all her personal belongings and prepared to leave quietly. Li Ye had already driven over to help her take away her bags of stuff.

However, when the two were going downstairs, they happened to meet Xia Qinghe and Chen Kangjian who were arguing downstairs.

Chen Kangjian said sadly: "Qinghe, are you exchanging your marital happiness for a job opportunity to stay in Beijing?"

Xia Qinghe said bluntly: "What kind of life I choose is none of your business, Chen Kangjian. If you don't like me, just pretend that you don't have a friend like me, and you don't have to go to my wedding day."

"Just because we are friends, we don't want to see you jump into the fire pit"

"How do you know it's a fire pit? If it was a fire pit, would so many people rush to jump in? If you were a woman, see if you would jump in or not."

Chen Kangjian has been bullied by Xia Qinghe for several years, but he is still no match for her. His face turns red after just a few words.

Finally, Chen Kangjian uttered a sentence with difficulty: "Qinghe, you said that we all have to have our own dreams, but I think dreams should be realized by ourselves, not by choosing to be parasitic."

"."

After Chen Kangjian said this, he felt a little guilty, wondering if he had gone too far.

Don't you know what level Xia Qinghe is at? Isn't the reason why she was able to get a job in Beijing because of the wedding invitation? But it's not good to scold someone, the two have been friends for many years, and this time he was really too harsh.

But Xia Qinghe sneered and said, "What's wrong with parasitism? Isn't Li Juan a parasite? If her family didn't have connections in the Propaganda Department, how could she have joined China Mobile? Zhang Zhiyu couldn't even go to China Mobile, because his father is the deputy director."

Chen Kangjian was stunned for a moment, and immediately argued: "We all admire Li Juan's professional level. She has published several professional papers in domestic first-class journals."

Xia Qinghe interrupted directly: "Do you really think that the paper is useful? You have published two papers, right? So what? Has anyone recognized your talent?"

“Even if Li Juan has good grades in her major, does it have anything to do with her ability to drive? Does it have anything to do with her wearing designer clothes and carrying a pager? So does my good grades have anything to do with my graduation assignment?
Chen Kangjian, you should wake up, we have graduated and it is time to face the reality of this society."

"."

Chen Kangjian completely held his breath.

His professional level may not be as good as Li Juan's, but he is also among the best in the class. However, the assignment result can only be described as "regrettable".

On the first day of entering society, the young boy felt that something he had always believed in collapsed.

"Well, sorry! We didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation, but there is one thing I want to correct."

Li Ye walked out of the darkness and came to the side of Xia Qinghe and Chen Kangjian.

Then he said calmly: "Xia classmate, whether you are a parasite or not, I can't judge, but my sister is not a parasite, but a family affection. There is an essential difference between parasitism and family affection.

For example, if your father makes money, he will definitely spend it on you first, which is family love. But if your father gives the money to his mistress, then the mistress is just a parasite.

"Also, family love is a one-sided, unrequited contribution, whereas parasitism requires exchanging one's own things, such as freedom and dignity."

"."

Xia Qinghe also held her breath, and she didn't come back to her senses until Li Ye and Li Juan left.

Are Li Ye’s words cruel?
That's certainly cruel, but it hits the nail on the head.

Xia Qinghe doesn't like the silly Yin Wenke, but in order to stay in Beijing, she can only exchange herself.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Li Juan followed Li Ye silently, and only after they had walked a long way did she turn around and look in the direction of Xia Qinghe.

Li Ye said calmly: "Don't feel sorry for Xia Qinghe, she is a powerful character. She may be a parasite now, but she may become the master in the future!"

Li Juan asked in surprise: "Why? Is she that powerful?"

Li Ye sneered and said, "If you got the chance to stay in Beijing by being someone's daughter-in-law, would you invite your classmates to your wedding in such a grand manner?"

"will not."

Li Juan immediately shook her head. It would be better to keep such an embarrassing thing secret and not let anyone know.

But Xia Qinghe did just that.

Li Ye chuckled and said, "Your classmate has learned to take advantage of your mother-in-law's family's influence before you even graduate. The classmates at Beijing University are all connections, but if you want these connections to approach you, you must show your value."

"Xia Qinghe's greatest value now is that she is the daughter-in-law of a scholarly family. Just wait and see! Even those who look down on Xia Qinghe will go over to drink a glass of wine and pay a share of the money."

"."
