That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 858 Sense of Superiority

At 6:12 in the morning, Min Lei looked at her exquisite watch, carefully checked the wedding process, and then found Li Dayong's father Li Hesheng.

"Mr. Li, the groom is going to go out to pick up the bride at 12:00 a.m., and there are still three minutes left. Everyone can get ready."

In fact, Li Hesheng had become impatient with waiting, and immediately ordered his brother-in-law Qian Qingfeng and senior brother Li Kaijian to go out and pick up the bride.

"Qingfeng, Kaijian, the time has come, you should hurry up and take the wedding procession away. You, Jin Peng, drive the Audi 100 as the lead car.
Remember to turn west after you arrive at Dengshikou, and go back around after welcoming the bride. Do not turn around, and do not go back the way you came."

"Don't worry, uncle! I walked the path several times yesterday. Even the people who stepped on the plates in the storytelling were not as diligent as me."

"Get lost! You're still stepping on the plate. Are you the mountain king who has come down from the mountain to grab the bride? Kaijian, help keep an eye on these little bastards. Don't let them talk nonsense when we get there."

"Hahahaha~"

"."

Amidst the cursing, a group of young people started the car at the door with a rumble, and rushed to Pei Wenhui's residence in Dengshikou to pick up the bride.

After Min Lei followed him out, she thought for a moment and decided not to get into the most conspicuous Audi 100 in front, but got into Li Ye's Santana.

After the car started, Min Lei asked casually, "Deputy Director Li, you and the groom both have the surname Li. Are you cousins ​​from the same family?"

Li Ye smiled and said, "Maybe our ancestors are related! But in our generation, we don't know how many generations have passed. We just played together and grew up together."

"Oh~"

Min Lei nodded suddenly. Based on her observation just now, Li Ye called Li Hesheng "uncle", so he and Li Dayong were probably cousins. But now it seems that they are just childhood friends.

Then Min Lei asked several more questions, such as "Which unit does the Audi 100 in front belong to?" and "What does the groom's family do?"

Li Ye found out that the secretary was trying to find out the "background" of Li Ye and Li Dayong.

Audi 100 was first assembled and produced in Shanghai and Jilin Province in mainland China using the SKD method in . Nearly vehicles were imported and assembled in two years before it was decided to go into production at the Jilin Automobile Factory.

Because these 100 Audi 100s conform to the official aesthetic standards of the mainland, most of them were purchased by government agencies. So one can imagine the status of those who can drive an Audi these days.

When Min Lei asked these two questions, she must have been asking about whether Li Dayong had any powerful relatives in his family.

It seems that Pei Wencong is still keeping his identity very secret. Min Lei is focusing all her attention on Li Dayong, but she doesn't know that the real king is sitting next to him.

Of course, let alone Min Lei, even her boss Chen Fusheng knew little about Li Ye's background. The instructions he received were to safeguard the interests of Hong Kong within the Light Automobile Company and to fully support Ma Zhaoxian.

"That Audi 100 was imported from abroad by Fenghua Clothing. My brother and I are both from Dongshan. We don't have any family support. We were just lucky enough to be admitted to university and come to Beijing."

"Nothing to rely on? No way?"

"He really has no support. His grandfather is a section-level cadre. Do you think that counts as support?"

"If it's at the department level, it's not bad in the countryside."

"."

After Li Ye said that Li Dayong was just a small-town test-taker and his family members were only small civil servants in the county, he vaguely felt Min Lei's "sense of superiority" and felt a little unconvinced.

[What are you not convinced about? Are you not convinced that Li Dayong, a country bumpkin, could become the brother-in-law of a big boss of a Hong Kong businessman? ]

[But what does this have to do with you as a secretary? ] Li Ye could guess Min Lei's thoughts almost accurately after a casual thought.

Min Lei considers herself to be one of the few people in this era who "opens her eyes to the world". She believes that after the reform and opening up, the mainland will eventually become a world of the powerful like a beacon.
Peasants like Li Ye and Li Dayong are already behind the times. Capital, money and power will eventually prevail over the "three generations of poor peasants".

If you don't believe it, just look at Li Ye. Even though he is extremely talented and even though he graduated from Peking University, wasn't it because of Pei Wencong's brother-in-law that he was able to shine and gain a foothold in the factional struggle of the Light Automobile Company?
Li Dayong's Changbei Machinery Company has been supplying gearboxes and axles at cost price to Li Ye's branch factory, so Min Lei followed her own thoughts and felt that she had dug out Li Ye's roots.

But just when she wanted to dig deeper, Li Ye asked her back: "Secretary Min, which school did you graduate from? Did you become Manager Chen's secretary after graduation?"

"Haha, it's just a coincidence."

Min Lei smiled and asked Li Ye: "Deputy Director Li, how did your brother get to know Miss Pei?"

Li Ye glanced at Min Lei and smiled faintly: "It's just a coincidence, not worth mentioning."

"."

Min Lei laughed dryly a few times and said, "Deputy Director Li, you are so stingy."

【I am angry with your mother. 】

This was the situation that Li Ye hated the most in his previous life.

The female colleague asked him all sorts of questions, almost asking about the color of his underwear, but she didn't say a word about anything about herself, as if it were a military secret.

"Oh, how can you just ask a woman's age? Can you please stop being so inconsiderate?"

"Hey, I'm just asking you casually. Seeing that you're so stingy, forget it if you don't want to tell me."

"."

What is the driving force behind the awakening of certain groups?
If you don’t make a profit, you will really die!
. . . . . . . . . .

Pei Wenhui's house is just west of Dengshikou, not far from Beixinqiao. Li Ye and others drove slowly and arrived on time at 2:15 a.m.

After a burst of firecrackers, the groom and his brothers got out of the car excitedly.

Li Kaijian stood in front and said seriously, "Behave yourself today and keep your paws in your trouser pockets. If anyone makes a fool of himself, don't blame me for slapping him in the face."

A group of Li Dayong's brothers and cousins ​​retreated awkwardly, but Ma Qianshan and others spoke up with grievance.

In this age where strangers of both sexes are not allowed to have casual contact, teasing the bridesmaids is one of the few precious opportunities for boys. It is normal for the timid ones to just say a few words, while the bold ones to just go straight in with their sexual harassment.

But people like Ma Qianshan and Jin Peng were already well-known and famous. In 1987 when money had already begun to show its power, they had no shortage of favor from ladies, so they no longer cared about such vulgar things as wedding pranks.

"Uncle Kaijian, what are you talking about? We are all civilized people, why would we play tricks on the bride?"

"That's right! We were just afraid of wasting time, so we were in a hurry to knock on the door!"

"Okay, okay, hurry up! Open the door within fifteen minutes, don't delay the auspicious time."

"Okay, if the door doesn't open in fifteen minutes, I'll just climb in."
