Chapter 262

When they were eating dinner in the evening, the family of the younger aunt, Li Mingxiang, also came over.

It just so happened that there was dog meat on the table, two large, fragrant basins of it, so the whole family ate very happily.

After they finished eating, Wu Juying took the women to another room, leaving only a few men in the main room.

Li Ye understood that this was probably to talk about the Sanshui matter.

Sure enough, Li Zhongfa looked at Li Ye and said: "After Old Huo came back today, he told me what you did. What were you thinking at the time?"

Li Ye was just about to speak, but was interrupted by his father, Li Kaijian: "When Xiao Ye was riding back, he saw that we had been plotted against. He was angry, and in the end, we didn't even touch that motorcycle."

Although Li Zhongfa had already heard it once from the driver, Old Huo, he patiently listened to Li Kaijian tell it again.

Then, after pondering for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "In that case, we still can't get a handle on Sanshui; it's not easy to handle!"

The younger uncle, Zhao Yuanchao, also nodded and said: "It's not easy to handle. Sanshui has learned a lot of skills from Jin Peng. The smuggled motorcycles are all traded in the provincial capital.

Even those people in our county who buy motorcycles go to the provincial capital to pick up the cars; we can't catch them with evidence in the act."

Li Ye was a bit stunned. When he first heard Li Zhongfa's question, he thought it was because he had chased Sanshui into the ditch this morning and they were planning to discuss how to clean up his mess! He hadn't expected this group of people to be calculating whether they could directly take down Sanshui.

Just puncturing three tires, and without evidence, it's not easy to handle!

Li Ye pondered back and forth and decided to reveal a bit of heavenly secret.

"Grandpa, actually, I just wanted Sanshui to lie in the hospital for a few months and not leave our Qingshui County, waiting for the storm you mentioned to arrive."

"The storm I mentioned is just a guess; it's not that accurate. Don't listen to your dad..."

Li Zhongfa suddenly stopped speaking and looked up at Li Ye, his eyes gleaming.

"Xiao Ye, did you hear any rumors in the capital?"

After Li Zhongfa finished speaking, Li Kaijian and Zhao Yuanchao also looked at Li Ye in unison.

The duck knows first when the spring river water warms; all the policies of the Great Flower Nation originate from the capital. Because of Teacher Ke, it was entirely possible for Li Ye to hear some rumors in advance that ordinary people couldn't reach.

Li Ye didn't say it directly, but said calmly: "I just heard some rumors, but I can't be sure."

Li Kaijian glared, clearly displeased: "Why are you being so wishy-washy? Everyone here is your elder; what's the point of being so secretive?"

Li Ye was also a bit speechless. Even the most powerful fortune teller wouldn't say it directly! It would shorten their life!

Li Zhongfa was angry and shouted at Li Kaijian: "Sit down and don't treat Li Ye like a child. Xiao Ye knows better than you what should and shouldn't be said."

Li Kaijian held his breath; he felt he had the qualifications to lecture Li Ye, but Li Zhongfa could also lecture him!

Thus, Li Kaijian and Zhao Yuanchao had no choice but to look at Li Ye resentfully, using the "family pressure" method.

Li Ye thought for a moment and said: "I really can't be sure, but according to my guess, at the fastest, one or two months, and at the slowest, three or four months, the storm will definitely come."

"."

Li Kaijian and Zhao Yuanchao looked at each other, both very shocked.

Zhao Yuanchao couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Ye, is this time accurate?"

He was the director of the police station in the north of the city, and this matter had the most to do with him. If he had exclusive intelligence, there would be too many things he could do.

"Don't ask anymore."

Li Zhongfa sternly stopped his son and son-in-law, and then said directly to Zhao Yuanchao: "You go collect materials tomorrow. For those who are harming the village and are hard to deal with, record them all in the files. Whether you can seize the opportunity then will depend on yourself."

Zhao Yuanchao quickly agreed: "I know, Dad. I'll do it tomorrow. Then Sanshui..."

"Don't worry about Sanshui for now; just follow Xiao Ye's path. He has a criminal record, he can't run."

Li Zhongfa also said to Li Kaijian: "You go ask the relatives in the family tomorrow, as well as your fellow apprentices, if any of them have caused trouble recently. If they have, hurry up and pay the compensation if they need to, and go to jail if they need to. Don't harbor any wishful thinking..."

Li Kaijian quickly said: "Definitely not, Dad. I've warned them since last year. If anyone delays Xiao Ye's future, don't blame me..."

"."

Watching the continuous dialogue and arrangements of the three adults in the family, Li Ye deeply felt the majesty of his grandfather, Li Zhongfa. As long as he gave an order, whether it was a workshop director or a police station director, none of them dared to say a word of dissent.

At the end, Li Zhongfa looked at Li Ye and asked: "How many days are you planning to stay in Qingshui? If there's nothing else, go back to the capital!"

Li Ye said: "I can't stay for many days. I'll leave after Ergou finishes his wedding the day after tomorrow."

Li Zhongfa thought for a moment and said: "Is it that child from the Chen family in the north of the city? How close are you to him? Don't rush to associate with just anyone. There are quite a few people who want to get close to you now; you have to open your eyes and see clearly."

Li Ye said: "I know, Grandpa. Ergou has learned his lesson now; he's a manager over in Yangcheng. Besides, he has a grudge against Sanshui, and I'm afraid Jin Peng won't be able to hold the fort when the time comes."

The reason Li Ye returned to Qingshui was actually to attend Ergou's wedding.

Ergou had grown a lot over the past year and could be considered "upper management" at the Pengcheng Seventh Factory. For such a big event as a wedding, how could Li Ye, the big "boss," not be there?

Moreover, back in Yangcheng, Li Ye and Hao Jian had arranged for Ergou to record Sanshui. Sanshui hated him to the bone, and Li Ye returning was truly to help hold the fort.

"Pfft~, you're overthinking it," the younger uncle, Zhao Yuanchao, smiled and said: "Jin Peng is no pushover. Is there anything he can't hold the fort for in Qingshui County?"

Li Ye smiled and said: "Marriage is a happy event after all. If Ergou's wedding is ruined, it won't look good for the villagers."

"It won't be ruined," Zhao Yuanchao said: "Ergou can be considered a prodigal son who has returned. I'll go offer my congratulations then."

"Fine, that's quite meaningful."

Li Ye smiled, feeling it was quite interesting.

Ergou used to be a poor guy hanging out on the streets, and now he had transformed into a successful person; it really had positive educational significance.

The next afternoon, Li Ye took out the clothes he was going to wear to the wedding and asked his older sister, Li Yue, to iron them.

Summer clothes were simple: just a pair of pants, a shirt, and a pair of shoes, and that was it.

But the older sister, Li Yue, said: "Let your sister iron them for you; I don't have time right now."

Li Ye looked at Li Yue, wondering if she was blaming him for not distinguishing between his own sister and his step-sisters.

For the past two days, he had been good to the two step-sisters, but he hadn't been bad to his own sister, Li Yue, either! Among the gifts he brought back, the most were for Li Yue.

After being looked at suspiciously by Li Ye for a long time, Li Yue couldn't help but say: "Xiao Ye, now even Ergou is some kind of manager, and even Han Chunlan is riding a motorcycle. Am I, your own sister, that useless and not worth your attention?"

Only then did Li Ye understand that Li Yue couldn't stand the loneliness of earning a fixed wage at her unit.

Li Ye smiled and said: "Sister, you have to talk to Grandpa about this; otherwise, I wouldn't dare to arrange anything for you."

Li Yue had an "iron rice bowl" in the grain department, which many people envied. If she wanted to resign, she definitely had to get Grandpa Li Zhongfa's nod.

Li Yue puffed out her cheeks in anger and said through gritted teeth: "Isn't that just a matter of you saying one word? Brothers fight tigers together; I'm not much worse than a man."

Li Ye thought for a moment and said seriously: "Sister, I don't object to you resigning and coming out, but what you want to do isn't up to you; it has to be up to me."

Li Yue immediately beamed with joy and nodded repeatedly: "Fine, anyway, you were the one who made the decisions at home before; I'll just listen to you."

Li Ye was afraid that Li Yue would feel a great disparity in her heart later, so he emphasized again: "Sister, don't think that just because you're coming out with me, you're going to be a leader.

You must start from the grassroots level. If you're short of money, I'll give it to you, but your salary can't be higher than others'."

"Who are you looking down on? If I don't do better than others, I won't even take a salary."

Li Yue glared, very unhappy: "I'm not asking you for food; of course, I have to speak with ability. Didn't Grandpa arrange for me to enter the unit starting from the very grassroots level?"

Li Yue was also a high school graduate. Although she didn't pass the college entrance exam the year before last, her grades were much better than Li Ye's when he started, and her spirit was truly not low.

"Fine, fine, fine. I'll talk to Grandpa tonight. You iron my clothes for me first; they're all wrinkled."

"Hmph~"

The older sister, Li Yue, gave Li Ye a glare before happily ironing his clothes.

She had never left the small place of Qingshui County since she was a child. Now that she could go to the capital, and even to Yangcheng and Hong Kong, she didn't know how happy she was in her heart!

Li Ye quietly left the room to find Grandpa Li Zhongfa.

As soon as Li Zhongfa saw Li Ye's expression, he smiled and asked: "Did your sister find you?"

Li Ye nodded and smiled: "Sister wants to come out with me to see the world. What do you think?"

Li Zhongfa said magnanimously: "What else can I think? Let her be! Her heart is wild; can I still tie her at home?"

Li Ye asked tentatively: "Then does she have a partner or anything? Should they go together?"

Grandma Wu Juying on the side said angrily: "Where would she have one! She's met several in a row and hasn't liked any of them. She couldn't stand it after people said a few gossipy words. Let her go out and see if she wants to! The grass is always greener on the other side."

Fine, as long as you agree, it's fine.

It's not that the sister thinks the grass is greener on the other side; it's that she was already standing on a high mountain!

"Beep, beep, beep, beep~"

When they were eating dinner in the evening, a sound of a horn came from outside the door.

Li Ye and the two younger sisters went out and saw Hao Jian, as well as a brand-new Crown sedan.

Li Juan and Li Ying both widened their eyes, looking at the pitch-black, shiny sedan, wanting to reach out and touch it, but not daring to.

Li Ye didn't even ask how Hao Jian got the car; he directly reached out for the keys and then opened the car door.

"Go, call your sister out; Brother will take you out for a ride."

The two girls looked at the leather seats inside and couldn't stop sliding backward.

"We... don't need to, Brother, we won't sit."

"Less nonsense, go call your sister, get in the car!"

When Li Yue came out, Li Ye chased the three sisters into the car, stepped on the gas, and drove out of the county town. After driving south for half an hour, they arrived at the edge of the provincial capital.

The three sisters felt the speed of flying and looked at the provincial capital they had reached in the blink of an eye, all deeply shocked.

Li Ye patted the steering wheel and said in a low voice: "Do you understand now? The world outside is very big, but if you want to walk out, either your studies are good, your fate is good, or you have ability."

Li Juan lay on the car window, looking outside while agreeing incessantly: "Oh, oh, I will study hard, Brother, I definitely will."

The younger sister, Li Ying, also nodded incessantly, her eyes greedily looking at the "prosperity" of the provincial capital, not knowing what she was thinking in her heart.

The older sister, Li Yue, was calm, looking left and right at several cassette tapes.

She felt that her studies were okay, and her ability was okay; the key was that her fate was good to have such a powerful younger brother. She had all three.

Li Ye took a cassette tape and inserted it into the player.

"Tomorrow you go find Dad and have him help you get a driver's license first; it will be useful when you get to the capital."

Li Yue said in surprise: "What? I'm going to learn to get a driver's license? Can I drive too?"

Li Ye said: "You must be able to. I'll give you two months; I'll wait for you in the capital in the autumn."

"Sweet honey, you smile so sweetly, like a flower blooming in the spring breeze, blooming in the spring breeze..."

Teresa Teng's *Sweet Honey* rang out. The three girls in the car looked at the sunset passing quickly outside the window, their thoughts flying, and their sweet hearts didn't know where they had flown to.
