Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 100 A date at a mutton restaurant

On May [-]th, early in the morning, Li Muyang felt refreshed.

Last night, after everyone had gone to bed, he boiled some hot water and washed himself thoroughly.

When I woke up in the morning, I found that my hair was not dry and was a little frizzy. I washed my hair again and combed it neatly.

I also put on new clothes.

Originally, he had a brand new coat, which he had prepared for the last blind date with Qian Xiaoyu. After the incident, the clothes were kept under the box.

I was planning to continue wearing this outfit this time, but when I took it out, I felt it was unlucky.

How can a new wife not have a new beginning?

How bad it is to still use clothes from a few years ago.

So early on, he asked a cousin who was a tailor in the village to help him pre-make a set of cyan Doliang Mao suit.

My cousin's craftsmanship is very good. She cut it exactly according to his body shape. The workmanship is also very detailed and it fits him perfectly.

The clothes are ready, and the shoes are naturally not worn out.

The second sister-in-law had never had a chance to wear the new shoes that he had made for him before, but he just put them to use this time.

Black suede, white mille-layer bottom, neat and fine stitching, and a well-fitting style. It is very durable and comfortable to wear on the feet, and it goes well with the new clothes you are wearing.

On top of his head, he wore a peaked cap he bought at the market in April.

I bought it when I met Lin Xiuli at the supply and marketing cooperative.

Li Muyang likes to wear peaked caps all his life.

Mainly because his hair is a little curly.

I had just washed my hair and it was still fine. After a while, it became as curled as an arrow and messy.

This kind of curly hair is hereditary and there is nothing he can do to avoid it.

In order to leave a good impression on others, he usually wears a hat to cover up his curly hair.

Gradually I got used to it.

Rumor has it that people with curly hair are generally stubborn and prone to accepting death, which Li Muyang thinks is right.

Later, none of his sons had curly hair, but his grandson had curly hair. He felt very sorry for his grandson and was very happy.

Li Xiangqin entered the room and saw Li Muyang still looking at himself in the mirror, so he joked: "Brother, you are very handsome. Stop looking at him in the mirror. You will be embarrassed to look at him in the mirror."

"Yes, you are handsome."

Yuan Rufeng also said with a smile.

Seeing that her son is going on a blind date today, the mother is happier than anyone else.

Recently, under Li Muyang's suggestion, Yuan Rufeng's diet has been adjusted. Try to eat less oil and less salt, and keep the food light, which will help control blood pressure and the worsening of cerebral infarction.

My mother's health has also improved.

The neck used to be able to rotate only about a dozen degrees, but now it can rotate about [-] degrees.

I can basically look at people sideways in a small area.

No matter how old he is, Li Muyang still feels a little embarrassed to be praised like this by his mother.

Haha, happy.

Of course he is happy when others are happy, but the happiest person is himself.

No one could really understand how much he was looking forward to today.

"Fifth uncle, why are you wearing such nice clothes?"

"I'm going to find your aunt. Do you want your aunt in Nuan Nuan?"

"I want to, and I don't want to."

"why?"

Li Muyang picked up Nuan Nuan and put her on the bed, teasing her little nose.

The anxious little Happy was screaming around his feet on the ground.

I thought he was going to do something bad to Nuannuan.

"Well...if uncle has an aunt, there will be one more person in the family, and then uncle won't have time to play with me."

"Silly, uncle has an aunt, doesn't that mean he has one more person to accompany Nuan Nuan?"

"Really?"

"That goes without saying, when did uncle lie to you?"

Nuannuan shook her head, "My mother said that a man's words cannot be trusted. My uncle must be lying to me."

Li Muyang glanced at Li Xiangqin who was folding clothes next to him, "Qinqin, don't convey this idea to your children. The quality of people in the world has nothing to do with men and women. Some men are ineffective, and some women are bad. Let your children have this It’s not good to be prejudiced.”

"I'm not entirely wrong..."

Li Xiangqin still wanted to defend, but seeing the hint of reminder in Li Muyang's eyes, she didn't continue to struggle, "Okay, I understand."

Li Muyang shook his head, "There are few truly bad people after all. Most people are ordinary people. They have a dark side and a good side in their hearts. We can't beat everyone to death with one stick, right?

The main thing is that the child is still young and has experienced what you have done, so it is easy for her to have psychological shadow. As a mother, you must guide her to grow up happily. If you continue to strengthen this idea, it will harm the child. . "

Li Xiangqin was slightly startled, thought for a moment, nodded and said no more.

"Okay, okay, Wu'er, Qinqin is such an adult. You keep saying what she is doing. If you don't tell her, she actually knows it herself. You'd better prepare well and strive for success today."

Yuan Rufeng broke the slightly gloomy atmosphere.

Li Muyang looked back and felt that he was a bit verbose. He shouldn't have spoken to his sister like that. After all, she was in her 20s and had self-esteem.

"Qinqin, can you help me check whether my back is neat or not?" Li Xiangqin glanced at him, walked behind him, straightened his collar a little, and patted his shoulder: "Comrade Li Muyang, you are already perfect. Your appearance and temperament both express a high degree of approval."

"Ha~"

Li Muyang smiled and felt relaxed.

At this time, a bicycle bell sounded outside.

The two went out and saw Zhao Yali riding a brand-new bicycle parked at the door.

It is a "Phoenix" light car.

This kind of lightweight bicycle is a kind of intermediate bicycle that is different from weighted bicycles and beamless bicycles.

It still has beams, but the overall frame of the car has become much smaller, and the focus of the car has also changed from transporting cargo to a means of transportation, only for people to come and go.

Moving towards the rear, many small bicycle beams are gone.

Basically they are only for women.

Li Muyang was surprised when he saw the bicycle riding by his second sister-in-law.

Originally, the second sister-in-law said that she would lend Li Muyang her bicycle to ride. Li Muyang thought it was the old bike that the second sister-in-law had used when she got married many years ago.

But the current car is basically brand new, and even the plastic lining paper on the triangular beam has not been completely removed.

"Here, Shepherd, the car is here for you to ride on."

Zhao Yali got out of the car, raised the support, and patted the back seat of the car.

Li Muyang walked over and looked at the bicycle. The more he looked at it, the newer it looked. He asked in confusion: "Second sister-in-law, who owns this bicycle?"

"Whose family does it belong to? It belongs to mine."

"Your family has a permanent car, right? Where did you get this Phoenix?"

"Didn't I just replace this one recently? It was almost replaced by scrap metal after being ridden by your brother forever. I really couldn't ride it, so I changed it to this Phoenix. We only bought it less than half a month ago, and I haven't ridden it yet. .”

Li Muyang took a look and found that there was not a speck of mud on the tires underneath.

A brand new car.

He was very moved and said hurriedly: "How can this be done? You don't even ride your new car, so I ride it out..."

"What's wrong with this? Why are you still saying this? Our family doesn't talk about the two families. Besides, this kind of thing you are dealing with is the most urgent task of our old Li family at the moment."

"It's just a blind date, not a marriage. It shouldn't be that important. What if the car is stolen while riding on the street?"

"Don't think so, isn't it just that you have to pay attention to everything during a blind date? A good car can give a good impression to the girl.

Tell me, you and the other girl are all neatly dressed and clean, but you end up driving a dirty, broken-down car that has no bells and is constantly ringing everywhere. What a nuisance to the scenery? "

Li Muyang smiled, thinking about it, it seemed the same.

"My sister-in-law is right. This woman just lives out of vanity, just like you men to save face. If you respect other girls, you can make a good impression.

On the contrary, if I were a girl, I wouldn't say that I don't like you because your car is not good, but I feel a little uncomfortable, right?

Don’t forget that you also have a competitor. Li Zhaohu drives for the county leaders. If he drives a car to go on a blind date, you..."

"Okay, I'll just ride."

After hearing Li Zhaohu, Li Muyang finally made up his mind.

Just like his sister-in-law said, he must seize the opportunity to make Lin Xiuli's heart completely fall to him at once.

But there can be no hesitation.

It's best to refuse Li Zhaohu's blind date directly.

Otherwise, any girl who sees Li Zhaohu's appearance, work, and conversational temperament may like him more.

Li Muyang is usually calm, but when something happens to Lin Xiuli, he becomes unstable.

"That's right."

Zhao Yali felt relieved and was very satisfied with Li Muyang's dress.

"Don't worry, our shepherd is also a energetic young man, no worse than anyone else. If that girl can be with you, she will be lucky."

Even though he knew that his sister-in-law was only praising him from the perspective of a relative, Li Muyang still had a little more confidence.

With the blessings of his family, he rode his brand new car onto the street.

Today there is still a market on the streets.

Fortunately, because he arrived very early, the streets were not densely packed with people, and there was almost no traffic jam, so he arrived under the Qingquan Tower.

The mutton restaurant they agreed on was right opposite Qingquan Tower.

It is an old store that has been around for decades.

It's called "Ma Laosi Mutton Restaurant".

The people who kill pigs and sheep and open beef restaurants and mutton restaurants on this street all have the surname Ma, so they are basically the same place.

Shops have been set up here for generations.

For example, this "Ma Laosi Mutton Restaurant" is still open until 2022. I don't know how many generations of owners there have changed, but the taste remains unchanged.

Many people nearby must take time to eat mutton dip when going to the market, otherwise they will feel uncomfortable.

Agreeing to eat mutton steamed buns at a mutton restaurant is considered a high standard for a blind date in this era. It is just like eating Western food or steak in later generations. It is quite respectable.

Li Muyang chose this place as a perfect match.

It is now 8:22 in the morning, and the time they agreed on is 9 o'clock, which means there is still enough time for one class.
