Chapter 779: A Decisive Compromise is Also a Magnificent Turn

When Li Ye and Teacher Ke came out of the study, Watching Liu Muhan and her parents, older brother, and Old Lu had just arrived.

Li Ye hurriedly went over to receive them, and Teacher Ke also gave Old Lu a slight smile, which counted as a greeting.

Before retiring, Lu Lu Huai Shui was a gatekeeper at the COFCO compound. Teacher Ke would occasionally meet him, and they would just nod to maintain politeness.

Li Ye smiled and welcomed the veteran soldiers of the grandfather generation, then smiled and introduced them to Teacher Ke: "Mom, these are Grandpa Lu, Grandpa Liu, and Grandma Gao. They were all my grandfather's comrades-in-arms. They were separated for decades until that time I went to your side and luckily reunited..."

"I've heard Xiao Yu mention this. The world is so big; to be able to reunite across thousands of miles is first, fate given by heaven, and second, thanks to you, Li Ye."

Teacher Ke smiled and shook hands with the veteran soldiers, incidentally attributing the credit for the reunion of Li Zhongfa and Liu Zhengqing to Li Ye.

Liu Zhengqing and Gao Shuyi were slightly surprised by Teacher Ke's "easygoing nature," because many people like Teacher Ke would at most just come to take a look in such situations and wouldn't have contact with outsiders, but Teacher Ke seemed no different from ordinary people.

At this time, Li Zhongfa and Watching Wen Leyu also came out. Everyone exchanged pleasantries and then went to the living room together.

However, Watching Liu Muhan didn't want to get involved with the adults, even though many people thought that being in close contact with Teacher Ke and Wen Qingsheng was a rare opportunity.

She took Watching Wen Leyu's arm: "Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, have my two grand-nephews grown fat..."

Watching Wen Leyu rolled her little white eyes and pointed to her room: "Well, they just finished eating and are sleeping in the room! They are much prettier than the last time you came."

Ever since the Guan Liang incident, Watching Liu Muhan had become familiar with Watching Wen Leyu. Occasionally, she would take advantage of Watching Wen Leyu in terms of seniority. If she said Song Xiaobao'er and Xiao Dou'er were her grand-nephews, wouldn't Watching Wen Leyu become her grand-niece-in-law?

Hearing Watching Wen Leyu's words, Watching Liu Muhan's eyes lit up: "Really? Let's go, let's go, take me to see them, take me to see them."

When Watching Wen Leyu first gave birth, Watching Liu Muhan had already come to visit once, but at that time the children hadn't grown into their features yet and were wrinkled and not very good-looking.

But now the children were a full month old, and their baby fat had been urged out. They were white and tender like ginseng fruits; they must be good-looking.

However, when Watching Liu Muhan entered the room, she saw three swaddles at a glance, three little babies.

Watching Liu Muhan blinked her eyes and asked Watching Wen Leyu strangely: "Hmm? Am I seeing things? Who is this extra child? Which one is my grand-nephew?"

Watching Wen Leyu was also a bit surprised, then remembered that the children had cried once just now, and Wu Juying and Watching Wen Leyu had been busy serving them for a while; she guessed they hadn't put little You'an back in Han Chunmei's room.

Of course, Watching Wen Leyu wouldn't say "This kid is my little uncle-in-law," so she could only smile and say: "Guess!"

"Guess? I'll guess!"

Watching Liu Muhan smiled meaningfully. After flipping through the swaddles, she accurately picked up Song Xiaobao'er.

"Oh oh oh, grand-nephew, have you missed your great-aunt?"

"Pfft, giggle giggle~"

Hearing Watching Wen Leyu's crisp laughter, Watching Liu Muhan thought she had picked the wrong one. She pulled out Song Xiaobao'er's little hand, looked at his fingers carefully, and then asked suspiciously: "That's right! This is my grand-nephew."

Li Ye's pair of children had the last joints of their little fingers curved inward, so they were obviously different from little You'an. Just now, Watching Liu Muhan had identified Song Xiaobao'er based on this detail.

Watching Wen Leyu smiled and said: "You didn't recognize him wrong, but I wanted to laugh when I heard you call yourself great-aunt. You have to know that in many places, people calling you great-aunt is not a good thing."

Watching Liu Muhan said disapprovingly: "What's good or bad about that? In the capital, fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls can be called great-aunt... Come, let great-aunt kiss you."

Watching Liu Muhan hugged Song Xiaobao'er and rubbed and kissed him. The tender touch of the baby's skin made her unable to put him down, and she didn't want to let go for a long time while holding him in her arms.

Watching Wen Leyu looked at Watching Liu Muhan for a long time and suddenly asked: "You like children so much, haven't you considered getting married and having one yourself?"

"Don't bring up things that shouldn't be brought up!"

Watching Liu Muhan teased Song Xiaobao'er while drooping her face: "I'm almost annoyed to death. Before, when my parents were in Shanghai, it was nothing, just phone calls urging me..."

"Now that they've moved to the capital, they urge me at the dinner table every day, mobilizing all kinds of connections to get me to go on blind dates. Yesterday, I just went on a blind date with a crooked melon and cracked date..."

"Hahahahaha~"

Watching Wen Leyu finally laughed out loud, looking just like a plastic sister gloating over misfortune.

Watching Liu Muhan hit Watching Wen Leyu with her shoulder in shame and annoyance, then said: "Just wait and see! My mom will definitely ask you to help me find a partner. According to them, as long as I'm not deaf, dumb, lame, or blind, it's fine."

"At that time, you must not take it seriously! Otherwise, I'll really be forced to apply for an overseas assignment."

Watching Wen Leyu stopped laughing and said seriously: "You tell me first what kind of person you want to find, and then I'll determine if there are suitable candidates. To avoid blind dates by going to work abroad, wouldn't that delay things even more?"

Watching Liu Muhan pondered for a moment, then said tangledly: "Mainly it's about whether we hit it off! I can't explain it clearly."

Watching Wen Leyu pursed her lips, narrowed her eyes, and asked: "This 'hitting it off' of yours, doesn't it mean 1.8 meters tall, looking like Lin Qiang, having a bachelor's degree, knowing how to sing, and knowing how to cook?"

Watching Liu Muhan looked at Watching Wen Leyu speechlessly and said angrily: "You're talking about Li Ye! You can't just show off to me because you're lucky."

"Boys like my big nephew are hard to come by. If you use his standards to find me a partner, wouldn't I be an old maid for the rest of my life?"

"..."

Watching Wen Leyu didn't offer fake comfort to Watching Liu Muhan, but pondered for a long time and nodded slowly: "It is indeed hard to come by. Once missed, there's no turning back."

Watching Wen Leyu's union with Li Ye could be said to be full of various coincidences. If Li Ye hadn't kicked that dog to death, if Lu Jingyao hadn't "slashed at her beloved on the first sword after landing,"

If Li Ye hadn't been admitted to Beijing University with her, if Li Ye hadn't been outstanding far beyond ordinary people... It could be said that at every node where an accident might have occurred, Li Ye and Watching Wen Leyu fit together steadily, only then possessing this marriage that both parties were 100% satisfied with.

And after Watching Wen Leyu saw Lu Jingyao a few days ago, she could foresee that her future marriage path would definitely not be smooth.

Because Li Ye was once so close to her and treated her so well, when men want to get close to her in the future, she will unconsciously compare them. And wanting to find someone who is comparable to Li Ye in all aspects, I'm afraid it's really not that easy.

"Sigh~"

Watching Liu Muhan suddenly sighed and said faintly: "Actually, I also know the truth that the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment. Every time I go on a blind date, I always feel that it's about the same, but when things come to a head, I still want to insist..."

"So sometimes I also admire those couples who marry first and fall in love later. They give up their expectations, so there is no disappointment."

"..."

Listening to Watching Liu Muhan's words, Li Ye thought of his eldest brother and sister-in-law. There didn't seem to be any expectations between Wen Guohua and Pan Xiaoying, nor any disappointment.

If she hadn't met Li Ye, would she be the same as her eldest brother?

"Xiao Yu, the guests have almost all arrived. Why don't you bring the children out for everyone to see?"

Grandma Wu Juying walked in and smiled as she picked up her great-granddaughter.

"Oh, okay!"

Watching Wen Leyu looked at the smiling Wu Juying and suddenly felt that a marriage after missing out might not necessarily be bitter.

When Grandpa Li Zhongfa was young, he was in love with Watching Liu Muhan's mother, Gao Shuyi, but after being wounded later, didn't he still marry Grandma, this female guerrilla fighter?

If you want to talk about the difference between Wu Juying and Gao Shuyi, it's huge.

One was a patriotic student who joined the army, the other was a rough-handed country woman, but the two supported each other and leaned on each other for a lifetime. Didn't they love each other for a lifetime?

Therefore, a decisive compromise is also a kind of magnificent turn. ===== CHAPTER 780 =====
