Rebirth in 1993, My Dad is a Returned Youth

Chapter 157 Gossip
A fragrant breeze blew towards him, and Fang Linxue had already arrived in front of him.

"What are you doing? My mom is easy to talk to, right?" Fang Linxue was a little proud and did not expose Li Kang's embarrassment.

I thought you wouldn't be attracted to girls, but it seems things will change.

Li Kang always gave her the impression that he was a little aloof, even though she was quite proactive.

If it weren't for Liu Guangzheng's matter, the two of them might not even be able to sit together now, let alone send her home.

"You look beautiful in this. I've only seen you in your work uniform, and this is my first time."

"What were you talking about with my mom just now? Why did I hear my brother's voice? Have you seen him?"

"I just saw him, but he went back."

"Did I scare you?" Fang Linxue sat next to him and picked up an apple on the guest table and started peeling it.

Wen Aiqing noticed that her daughter was sitting very close to Li Kang, and her mood improved.

It seems that the relationship between the two is still good and there is potential for development.

This is the first time my daughter has brought a boy home since she grew up.

"Mom, Li Kang is a colleague I met at the company. He's a simultaneous interpreter. Don't underestimate him."

"Simultaneous interpretation? How much can you make in a month?"

"One day's work may be equivalent to my monthly salary." Fang Linxue said casually. She was very good at peeling apples. Soon a big apple was peeled and then cut into four pieces.

She personally handed one of the pieces to Li Kang's mouth.

Li Kang felt that this was not a good idea and wanted to reach out to take it.

Fang Linxue had already fed him the fruit. "You are my savior, so it is my duty to feed you the fruit."

Wen Aiqing didn't say anything for a long while, still immersed in Fang Linxue's words just now.

I didn't notice some of the actions of the two young men.

Li Kang once again enjoyed Fang Linxue's tenderness and thoughtfulness.

"Since we are here, we should just make the best of it. The girl doesn't mind, so why should I be nervous?"

After some self-psychological suggestion, Li Kang began to accept it calmly.

"Mom, are you still thinking about it?"

Wen Aiqing came back to her senses, and this time the look she gave Li Kang was different.

It was clearly the look she gave her son-in-law. . . .

"Xiao Li only makes 4,000 a day? Is that how much simultaneous interpreters can earn?"

The previous generation had rarely heard of the fact that one could make so much money as a translator.

"It's not every day, Fang Linxue's job is more stable. I——"

Fang Linxue was a little dissatisfied and whispered in his ear: "You can call me Linxue or Xiaofang in my house, okay?"

The breeze beside his ears made them feel numb and tingling. She really didn't treat him as an outsider.

Li Kang felt numb all over, and continued to say to Wen Aiqing: "I don't have a stable job yet."

Wen Aiqing doesn't think much of a stable job: "What's so good about a stable job? You only earn so little money every month. There's no hope or surprise in life. Xiao Li is really capable."

Parents in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai are not as traditional in their views as people in the north.

A stable job without making money has no appeal to them at all.

But if someone is like Li Kang, who has the ability to make a lot of money, I would particularly like him.

They have also worked hard on their own and don't have stable jobs.

In contrast, those who have stable jobs are stably poor.

It's difficult to buy a house like theirs.

"If you only make 4,000 a day, then you should earn at least 20,000 to 30,000 a month. Maybe even more."

"Our Lin Xue used to brag that she made four thousand a month, and she was so cocky in front of us. Now you are the only one who can keep her down."

Wen Aiqing was afraid that Li Kang wouldn't have enough fruit to eat, so she went to wash another plate of grapes.

"Auntie, don't wash the fruit, we have to go downstairs to eat later."

"It's okay, just let my mom wash it, she likes you."

"Let me tell you, her son has been giving her a lot of trouble lately!"

Fang Linxue started chatting with him about family matters.

It turned out that his brother’s wife was his college classmate, and they had been dating for seven or eight years.

"They both graduated from Shencheng University."

"After graduation, my brother joined the power grid company and his girlfriend joined the radio station."

"They were about to get married a few days ago, but guess what happened." Li Kang didn't want to listen to this gossip, but Fang Linxue insisted on telling him, so he became interested as soon as he heard it.

Who makes mainlanders have a gossipy heart?

"What's wrong? Your brother got married and divorced?"

"They got married a month in advance. But a few days before they were about to get married, the woman ran off with a painter—!"

"..."

Fang Linxue was very excited when she spoke about it.

Well, they are eating their own brother’s melons, they are indeed siblings.

"It's not that woman's fault. She has been with my brother for so many years because we have a bond. It's mainly because my brother is too dull, like a dull person. He studied engineering in college and doesn't care about his image at all."

Fang Linxue bit the apple in her hand and said in a muffled voice, "I'm lucky to have a girlfriend like that."

"If she was a more ruthless girl, she would have separated from my brother long ago."

Looking at his brother just now, he really doesn't care about his image.

The clothes he wears are tasteless.

But he can't say anything, because everyone thinks differently and focuses on different things.

All I can say is that his brother is a lovesick man.

"You've seen my brother and seen how he dresses, right? Isn't it outrageous?"

Li Kang didn't dare to say anything because her brother came.

"Ouch!!"

"Who hit me!" Fang Linxue stood up angrily, wanting to teach that person a lesson.

"it's me!"

As soon as the voice came out, Fang Linxue was beaten back to her original form, and the arrogance just now was no longer visible.

"Brother, you're out!"

"You're talking bad about your brother behind his back! You really are my sister."

Fang Qingshu wasn't really angry with his sister, he actually had a very good personality.

Just listening to him talk makes me feel a little awkward.

“Traditional engineering student?”

Li Kang instantly associated Fang Qingshu's image with some honest engineering students of this era.

There are so many good men in this era, and each of them is a good man who cares deeply about his family.

After marriage, he handed over his salary and worked hard without complaint.

I rarely lose my temper with my wife.

Later, as the Internet developed, too many good men were hurt, and the wind direction began to change.

Of course, the harm is mutual, and many men have also ruined the reputation of boys among girls.

In the end, everyone suffered together.

Good man has gradually become a derogatory term.

In Li Kang's opinion, Fang Qingshu is really typical.

A typical family-oriented man, this kind of man will not have much fun in life and does not understand women's minds.

If you listen to a woman and do whatever she says, you will just give your all and end up moving yourself and hopefully the other person as well.

No wonder she disappeared on her wedding day and ran away with the painter.

Painters still had a high status at that time, and their ideas about art were not as conservative as those of engineering men.

It is common to have a lot of women around you.

"Brother-in-law, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I hope you won't be like me and understand women's minds. I just didn't understand her mind, which is why we have ended up like this."

Fang Qingshu shared his insights after his experience with Li Kang very seriously and directly treated Li Kang as his brother-in-law.

Is there anything that a family needs to be superstitious about?

Li Kang was confused, "Brother Fang, don't get me wrong, Lin Xue and I are not in a relationship."

He quickly explained, lest the other party's family would have more misunderstandings if he delayed it any longer.

Fang Linxue has not yet explained their relationship, and it seems that she is deliberately trying to make her family misunderstand their relationship.

Boys must protect themselves well when they go out. They can't afford to suffer such losses.
