That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 1190 In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed

Xiao Dou'er said confidently, "Our dog has a household registration," but Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan next to him felt a little embarrassed.

Li Ye's family has been raising a dog for a long time. They really don't realize the problem of raising dogs in Beijing. Even if Li Ye's dog has the necessary procedures, but they are playing the Pavlov experiment with a gong making "ding ding ding" and "wang wang wang". What do the neighbors think of Li Ye's family?
So Hu Man said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Li Ye, we just talked to Xiao Dou'er about what happened in Qingshui County, and then..."

"Hey, what are you saying sorry for? You misunderstood."

Li Ye interrupted Hu Man and said, "Actually, I'm not afraid of what others say, but my daughter likes to make trouble. Da Huang is already old, and I'm afraid she will become addicted to it, and Da Huang may not be able to bear it."

"What? Da Huang is old? It's only been a short time."

Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan were both shocked and looked at Pavlov in panic.

Dahuang is Pavlov's real name. When he was in the grain store, this guy was a very good dog. He refused to eat the food offered by the small group of eight people.

However, the food that Li Ye served to the small group was too good. After several girls tempted him with bones many times, Da Huang suddenly realized the truth that "you can be full by wagging your tail" and became the darling of the girls.

Thinking about the past, it seems like it was just yesterday, but how come it has become old in the blink of an eye?
Jiang Xiaoyan reached out and rubbed Dahuang's fur, then said: "Dahuang is not old yet! My mother said that the fur on old dogs is very dry and falls off. Dahuang's fur is very oily and can't be pulled."

Li Ye sighed and said, "That's because Dahuang eats well, but a dog's life span is only fifteen to twenty years. We have been away from Qingshui County for eight years. Can you calculate how old it is?"

"."

Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan were stunned and stopped talking.

When they first met Dahuang, it was already a big ferocious dog. Now eight years have passed, so it should be at least a teenager. If converted according to human age, it should be the same group of people in the square who are paid to do nothing but dance.

Jiang Xiaoyan was in a trance and murmured, "It's been eight years since we left Qingshui County!"

Hu Man looked at Pavlov, who was shaking his head and wagging his tail in front of her and was very affectionate, and said sadly: "Da Huang, you can only live for ten years?"

Li Ye also sighed and said softly: "Yes! Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye."

When we are young, we look forward to growing up every day, as if this annoying childhood is so hateful. But when middle age and old age suddenly appear before us, we feel that time is really too cruel and ruthless.

However, seeing that Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan were both very sad and about to cry for an old dog, Li Ye teased, "Alright, alright, ten years is not long, but it is not short either.

If you come to visit me and Wen Leyu as often as we did in the first few years, then you will have spent a lot of time with Da Huang.

But if you don't come to my house for the whole year like you have been doing in the past two years, then you will see Da Huang less and less."

Hu Man: “.”

Jiang Xiaoyan: “.”

"Especially you, Human,"

Li Ye pointed at Hu Man and pretended to be unhappy and said, "Since my baby was one month old, you have never been with us. If I hadn't often heard Aunt Jiang talk about you, I would have thought you were missing!"

"."

Hu Man's face turned red and he was obviously embarrassed.

Because of Li Dayong's "confession", Hu Man gradually reduced the number of times she participated in small group activities starting from her sophomore year. After graduation, she met with Li Ye and others even less frequently.

Jiang Xiaoyan's complexion wasn't much better either. She was better than Hu Man. In recent years, she would occasionally come with her mother Chen Jinhua to chat with her grandmother Wu Juying, but they only came once every two or three months, and it seemed that they were becoming more and more estranged.

In fact, Li Ye knew that this kind of "estrangement" was not because the feelings between them had faded, but because the boundaries between adults were difficult to grasp. It was not good to visit the owner all the time when there was nothing to do, but it was even worse not to visit the owner at ordinary times and then visit the owner when something happened.

Li Ye saw the two women were embarrassed and couldn't help laughing. "What's wrong? Are you embarrassed? I tell you, you have to come here more often in the future, otherwise even the dog at home won't recognize you."

Jiang Xiaoyan and Hu Man both smiled awkwardly. They knew that Li Ye was pretending to be angry, expressing his dissatisfaction with his increasingly distant attitude towards them in recent years, but they also had their own ideas, didn't they?

But at this moment, the three people suddenly saw Xiaodouer constantly turning his little head, with his eyes closed, with his eyes open, left and right, having a lot of fun.

Li Ye touched his daughter's head and asked her in confusion: "What's wrong? Is there a bug in your neck?"

Xiao Douer shook his head again and again, "Dad, didn't you say that ten years passed in the blink of an eye? I just blinked several times! How come I'm still only three years old?"

"."

Li Ye was stunned for a moment, and quickly held his daughter's neck, and explained: "This is a matter of chance, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Don't try this again, or else it will work three or four times in a row and you will be in your forties in a flash.

By that time you will be older than me and your mom, there will be no more New Year's money, and you have to make money to support me and your mom, and all your money will have to be spent on us."

"."

Xiaodou'er's eyes widened instantly, and his little neck stood straight without bending at all.

If Li Ye just said that she might grow up in the blink of an eye, Xiao Dou'er might try to turn her neck, but if he asked her to spend her New Year's money on others, she would definitely not want to grow up. "Hahahaha~"

Jiang Xiaoyan and Hu Man laughed heartily at Xiaodou'er's appearance, and the awkwardness just now was resolved.

"Okay, as long as you don't want to grow up, it won't work no matter how you roll your eyes. Give me the little gong and go do your homework with your brother."

Li Ye snatched the small gong from Xiaodou'er's hand, kicked his daughter's butt with a feint, and drove her and Xiaobao'er aside.

Then Li Ye welcomed Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan into the living room, brought out a table of melon seeds, fruits, and drinks, and entertained them as warmly as he did in the Zaojun Temple.

This brought back strong memories for Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan. They used to get together at Zaojun Temple every month to enjoy a feast. Thinking about it now brings back fond memories.

Hu Man looked at Jiang Xiaoyan, and then said: "Li Ye, we are not outsiders, don't be so polite."

"Then I'm not welcome!"

Li Ye asked bluntly: "Tell me! What do you want to talk to me about today? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be polite!"

"."

Li Ye's straightforwardness made Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan feel uncomfortable for a while. We are all good friends, but you are so impolite. It really makes people feel embarrassed, okay?
Hu Man pursed her lips and said helplessly, "Today we wanted to ask Wen Leyu for help, but she didn't reply when we called her, and we couldn't get through on the phone. When can she get off work?"

Li Ye smiled and said, "Xiaoyu is on a business trip to Shanghai. Of course she can't receive your pager calls."

"Wen Leyu went to Shanghai?"

Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan were suddenly disappointed.

Seeing their disappointment, Li Ye smiled and said, "What are you looking at? Don't you know that I have the final say in this family? Isn't it the same if you tell me if there is anything?"

"Hahahaha~"

The two women smiled, and then Hu Man said frankly: "We were a little embarrassed to come to see Wen Leyu, but after hearing what you said, we really can't be embarrassed. Otherwise, you are looking down on your ability, Director Li, right?"

"Of course, but why were you embarrassed in the first place?"

Li Ye raised his lips and said with a wicked smile: "Let me guess, you came to me to seek official positions? Or do you want us to introduce you to someone?
By the way, Jiang Xiaoyan, the last time my wife introduced you to that boy, what was it about him that you disliked?"

"."

The two girls were so exhausted by Li Ye that their faces turned red.

As for running for office, they would never do that. Otherwise, how could they have gradually become estranged in the past two years? If those running for office had a connection with Wen Leyu, they would want to squat at their doorstep and chat with Wen Leyu every day.

When it comes to introducing someone, it's even more irrelevant.

Hu Man and Jiang Xiaoyan are both one year older than Li Ye. They are 29 years old this year, but they are still single. In this day and age, they are considered older single women. Their family members have urged them to get married countless times.

Jiang Xiaoyan's mother, Chen Jinhua, often visited Wu Juying and complained that she was worried to death about her daughter. Jiang Xiaoyan had everything she wanted: education, good looks, a house, and a dowry, but she just lacked a partner.

Later, Wen Leyu introduced her to a potential stock, but after the two of them had been in contact for a while, the young man said aggrievedly that Jiang Xiaoyan didn't like him. Don't you think this is a desperate move?

"Okay, Li Ye, let's talk to you seriously,"

Jiang Xiaoyan wiped the hair on her forehead, blushed and said to Li Ye seriously: "I was transferred to the Dongjiang Military Factory under the Ministry last month. Because of the end of the war in the Middle East, our factory is having a hard time.
So I would like to ask Wen Leyu to help us analyze the market demand, and then determine a research and development direction, and strive to develop an advanced best-selling product. "

Li Ye asked in surprise: "Have you been demoted? Or are you going to be promoted?"

After Jiang Xiaoyan graduated from Beijing Aeronautical College, he was assigned to the research institute under the aerospace department. His work has been going smoothly over the years. He has been busy with his leader and has received many praises. Whether based on research results or qualifications, he is about to be promoted.
And according to Jiang Xiaoyan's mother Chen Jinhua, it seems that she even visited the leader on behalf of her daughter. As for how she visited him, there is no need to explain, right?

So Li Ye felt that Jiang Xiaoyan’s current experience was too sudden.

Jiang Xiaoyan said bitterly: "My rank has not changed. I actually didn't want to leave, but my direct supervisor was suddenly transferred away, and someone else took the position that should have been mine.

Now the institute asked me to go to Dongjiang Military Factory as the deputy technical director, and said that as long as there is a demand, the institute will do its best to provide technical support."

"wait!"

Li Ye interrupted Jiang Xiaoyan and asked, "Was your leader transferred horizontally? Or promoted?"

Jiang Xiaoyan said: "It has been promoted."

"Bang~"

Li Ye slammed the table angrily.

"Shit, this isn't a turbulent era, how could there be so many sudden transfers? Your leader is fooling you!"
