Chapter 650 Troubles
This day seemed like a dream in Zheng Li's eyes.
First, her boyfriend suddenly became a big boss from an ordinary driver, and he was the kind of big boss that ordinary people could not even imagine.
Is Boss Cao rich? In the eyes of ordinary people, he is of course a rich man. He runs a large factory with hundreds of people. If he has no money, how can Gu Bei be so willing to follow Boss Cao, who is almost as old as her father?
But compared with her boyfriend, Boss Cao is just a poor man.
Zheng Li never expected that her boyfriend Li Daqi was actually the boss of Shenghua. She had worked in Boss Cao's factory for so long, so of course she knew what kind of company Shenghua was. It was the largest Hong Kong company in Pengcheng.
Not to mention the scale of Shenghua Garment Company, the entire Pengcheng Shenghua Garment Company has thousands of workers. Such a large factory is a large enterprise even in the mainland.
Who does Boss Cao rely on for his factory business? Isn't it Shenghua Garment Company? Zheng Li knows very well that 90% of the products of Boss Cao's factory are produced for Shenghua. To put it bluntly, Li Daqi's words can decide the life and death of Boss Cao's factory.
In addition to the clothing company, Shenghua Group has many other investments in Pengcheng.
For example, several supporting companies and Shenghua Electronics Company, and even Shenghua Real Estate Company, etc. For example, the Century Shenghua Community where Li Daqi lives now was developed by Shenghua Group. Zheng Li had never seen such a beautiful community before, let alone heard of it.
Shenghua Group's industries are not only in Shenzhen, but its headquarters is also in Hong Kong.
In addition, Shenghua Group has a series of other investments, some of which are even cross-industry. Zheng Li didn't understand it for a while, but there is one thing she is clear about, that is, her boyfriend Li Daqi is not only a boss, but also a big boss, the kind of big boss that dozens... no, hundreds of bosses Cao combined may not be able to compare to.
I was just in a relationship, and suddenly my boyfriend became a big boss. Everything seemed like a dream.
This is really unimaginable. Zheng Li felt like she was just like Cinderella in the fairy tale today.
Li Daqi's parents are very warm and friendly to him.
Uncle Li is a technician and is currently the deputy chief engineer of Shenghua Electronics Company . Aunt just retired. She used to work in a textile factory in Shanghai and was also a March 8th Red Flag Bearer.
Seeing Li Daqi bringing Zheng Li home, the two elders entertained Zheng Li very warmly and asked about her well-being, which was completely different from what Zheng Li had originally thought, that she would be bullied.
The elders not only did not make things difficult for Zheng Li, but were friendly and enthusiastic, and expressed their attitudes to Zheng Li in person.
They told Zheng Li that marriage is a matter between two people, and whether a pair of shoes fits or not can only be known by wearing them. As elders, their family has always been democratic and will not interfere in the relationship between Zheng Li and Li Daqi. As long as they feel good about it, the elders will agree.
However, the two elders still hope that if Zheng Li and Li Daqi feel that they are suitable for each other, then there is no need to delay some things. They are not young anymore, especially Li Daqi is already an older single person. If possible, they should just get married right away.
Find a time, Zheng Li will talk to her family, and the parents of both sides will meet to finalize the marriage.
It would be great if they could get married early and have children early. After the children are born, their two elders can help them take care of the children.
Hearing this, Zheng Li's face turned as red as an apple, and she felt very embarrassed. But she was very happy in her heart. Li Daqi's parents were good people, and kind people. She was lucky to have such parents-in-law. In addition, she and Li Daqi had a foundation of love, and they had been in love for quite some time. Now it was indeed time for them to come together.
In the evening, Li Daqi drove Zheng Li back to the dormitory, and the two lingered in the car for a long time before breaking up.
Watching Li Daqi's car go away, Zheng Li walked towards the dormitory. All the way, her mind was filled with the look on Li Daqi's parents' faces as they talked about their expectations for their marriage.
When I returned to the dormitory, Meng Lihong was still awake and waiting for me.
She knew that Li Daqi was coming back today and Zheng Li went on a date with Li Daqi, so this girl waited for Zheng Li to come back to find out some gossip.
“I’m back!”
Hearing the door open, Meng Lihong, who was lying on the bed reading a Qiong Yao novel, got up quickly and ran to Zheng Li who had just entered the room, asking impatiently: "Our beautiful lady is back from walking on the street. Come on, let me see if she has a tan from the moon."
"Go to hell... You're always so excited, you're almost a gossip. If you keep going like this, you're incurable, you know? I think I have to introduce you to a partner. Maybe this disease will be cured when you find a partner yourself."
Zheng Li directly gave Meng Lihong a sanitary ball. Meng Lihong laughed and said, "I'm looking for a partner? No hurry, no hurry. I'm not as pretty as you nor as generous as Gu Bei. I don't like any of the workers in the factory. Let's take it slow. By the way, how was your date today? Where did you go for dinner? What did you talk about?"
Zheng Li didn't know what to start with for a moment. She didn't share with her good friends as usual. Instead, she walked to the table and poured herself a glass of water. Then she held it in her hand without drinking it, and sat there in a daze.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Zheng Li's expression, Meng Lihong asked with concern, and put her arm around her shoulders and asked, "Did you have a fight? Why did you fight? Did Li Daqi bully you? How could Li Daqi do this? No! I have to talk to him!"
As she spoke, Meng Lihong had an indignant expression. Fortunately, Li Daqi was not there. If Li Daqi was there, she would have gone up to him and scolded him first.
"Don't be silly, we didn't have a fight, he is very nice to me." Zheng Li was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"I'm good to you, I'm good to you, why are you like this? Don't hide it from me, we are good friends, what can't we tell each other? Tell me what happened? If it's really his fault, I won't forgive him!"
"Don't guess blindly, actually...actually we didn't eat out today..."
Seeing Meng Lihong's eyebrows raised as if she had wrong thoughts again, Zheng Li quickly explained: "Da Qi told me that his parents wanted to meet me, so I went to his house today."
"Did you go to meet the parents? " Meng Lihong opened her mouth so wide that an apple could fit in it, and her eyes bulged out with an expression of surprise.
Zheng Li nodded and told Meng Lihong that Li Daqi had taken her to meet his parents today. Li Daqi's parents entertained her warmly and were supportive of their relationship. Li Daqi's mother, in particular, liked Zheng Li very much. She held Zheng Li's hand and talked a lot. She also gave Zheng Li a gift.
When she heard about the gift, Meng Lihong said eagerly that she wanted to take a look.
Zheng Li took out a pair of bracelets from her bag. When she saw the bracelets, Meng Lihong's eyes went straight. These were a pair of big gold bracelets! And judging by the weight, they were really not cheap. I didn't expect Li Daqi's mother to be so generous.
"How heavy is this bracelet? How much does it cost?" Picking up the bracelet and looking at it over and over again, Meng Lihong couldn't help but ask, making a clicking sound.
Zheng Li ignored this money-grubber and let her play with the bracelet. After a while, she said, "I plan to get married..."
"Oh... okay, no... what did you just say? Get married?" Meng Lihong didn't react for a moment, and then she said "oh" and suddenly looked up.
Zheng Li nodded and said to Meng Lihong that she and Li Daqi had been in love for quite some time and they got along very well. Li Daqi loved her very much and she also loved Li Daqi.
I met the parents again today. Li Daqi's parents were very enthusiastic towards me, and they directly suggested that if there was no problem, they would like to meet Zheng Li's parents to discuss the marriage of their two children.
Zheng Li hesitated for a moment at Li Daqi's house before agreeing, so her marriage to Li Daqi was confirmed for both parties. The next step was for the parents of both parties to meet and go through the formalities.
"This is great!" Meng Lihong was genuinely happy for her good friend and couldn't wait to say that she would definitely be Zheng Li's bridesmaid when they got married.
At this point, Meng Lihong started dancing with excitement and talking about what to do with the wedding and how to prepare for it. She spoke very clearly, as if she, a girl who had never even been in love, had actually experienced such a thing.
"I'm worried now." Zheng Li said worriedly.
"What are you worried about? Are you worried about a good thing? What? Are you worried that your Daqi will not treat you well after marriage? Don't worry! I have myself!" Meng Lihong patted her chest as if she was willing to go through fire and water for her good friend.
Rolling her eyes at her, Zheng Li said, "Don't you forget how we came to Pengcheng? My family has to know about such a big thing as marriage, and Daqi's parents are meeting my parents. My parents are fine, but you know my eldest brother. He was angry about me coming to Pengcheng. Now I'm suddenly getting married. What will he think?"
"Oh, it's true!" Meng Lihong was dumbfounded for a moment. She hadn't thought of this just now, but now after hearing what Zheng Li said, it was really a trouble.
Having grown up with Zheng Li, Meng Lihong knows very well what Zheng Li's family situation is like.
As the youngest daughter, Zheng Li 's parents have spoiled her like the apple of their eye since she was a child. But it is different for Zheng Li's older brother. Because there is a big age difference between her and her older brother, and Zheng Li's older brother is a leader, he is usually very serious and has very strict requirements on her. This older brother is more like a father to Zheng Li than her father.
In addition, in order to come to Pengcheng, they deliberately lied to her eldest brother and got the travel expenses from him.
Until now, although their families knew that they were living well in Pengcheng, in order to avoid trouble, they had never told their families where they worked and where they lived in Pengcheng, for fear that Zheng Li's elder brother would come and arrest her.
Now, Zheng Li is getting married, and the parents of both sides have to meet. Who can guess what the reaction of Zheng Li's elder brother, who has been holding his breath, will be? What if he is still angry that Zheng Li lied to him and directly opposes this marriage? Wouldn't this be a big trouble?
"How about you and Daqi do it first and ask for permission later? Get married first and then go back?"
Meng Lihong gave Zheng Li some advice, but Zheng Li shook her head as soon as she heard it: "How is that possible? You need a household registration book to get married. How can you get married without a household registration book?"
Meng Lihong rolled her eyes and said, "What's the big deal? You can just have a wedding banquet first, and then give birth to the child. You can't stuff the child back after it's born, right? Then take the child and your husband back with you. Even if your eldest brother objects, there's nothing you can do. What do you think of my idea?"
"Not that great!" Zheng Li rejected it outright. What a bad idea! How could she come up with such a plan?
Meng Lihong couldn't come up with any good ideas, so it was good enough that she didn't make things worse. Zheng Li had to make her own decision on this matter. She didn't say anything for a while and thought quietly.
