Aunt Yumei sighed and said," Tang Wude, that old thing, said that his daughter is attending a famous university. She will stay in the city in the future and will not return to our shabby fishing village. He said that if your family bought a house in the city, this matter could still be discussed. But now that you're back, so…"
Aunt Yumei wanted to say something but hesitated. She was actually being very tactful. Tang Wude was not so reasonable in front of her and Li Qi's mother.
She could still remember the disdainful look on Tang Wude's wife's face.
Li Qi's expression turned cold and he sneered in his heart. To put it bluntly, he was looking at his family's poverty. However, there was nothing much to say about this. For matchmaking, one would look at the other party's family background. However, even if he did not like them, it was too much to say some harsh words to humiliate them.
Although Aunt Yumei said it tactfully, Li Qi could still imagine his mother's predicament at that time.
"Aunt Yumei, don't matchmake me in the future.”Li Qi thought about it and decided to talk to Aunt Yumei.
" Little Qi," Aunt Yumei was stunned." Among all the people I know, only Tang Wude's daughter is a university student. I…"
She thought that Li Qi was blaming her, but Li Qi shook his head and said,""Auntie, I'm not blaming you. It's just that I don't really want to find a partner now.”
"What are you talking about? Brat, if you don't find a partner, it'll be even harder to find one when you get older!”
His mother walked in at this time and happened to hear this sentence. She immediately shouted angrily.
"Mom, I…" Li Qi's face turned bitter.
Before Li Qi could finish, his mother said,"Brat, how many years have you been studying? If you don't hurry up and find a partner when you come back, how are you going to find one when you're old? There aren't many girls in our village. You know Mom's body. Arterial pain is terrible. I don't have much time to help you in the future!”
"Find a good partner. In the future, the two of them will live together. Mom can finally rest assured. In the future, when I go to see your dad, I will have an explanation. Otherwise, if Mom dies, what will you do? What about Sisi? She didn't even have a home when she came back.”
As his mother spoke, tears began to flow down her face.
Li Qi was even more helpless. He wanted to say that he was rich now and could bring a better life to his mother and sister. He was not in a hurry to find a wife.
However, seeing his mother like this, how could he say anything? He said helplessly,"Mom, Mom, don't be sad. How about this? Aunt Yumei will arrange a blind date for me. As long as the other party is willing, I'll go and see it.”
His mother stopped wiping her tears and glared at him."You speak as if you've been wronged. I think that Xiuxiu from the back village that Yumei mentioned last time is not bad. I watched that girl grow up. She has been quiet since she was young, and she's meticulous in her work. She's also handsome. I was just talking about her with your aunt Yumei. Yumei, tell Xiao Qi about Xiuxiu's family situation.”
His mother pulled Li Qi and Aunt Yumei back to the table. Aunt Yumei took a sip of the fish soup and smiled."You should know about Xiuxiu's family situation. She only has two children. She and her younger brother are living in a difficult family. However, I've seen that daughter. She has become more delicate and considerate in recent years. She's definitely a good girl who manages the household well. However…"
"But what?" asked his mother.
Aunt Yumei hesitated for a moment and said,""It's Soo Soo's education. She only finished high school before she went out to work.”
His mother waved her hand and snorted." It's good that she's in high school. Although Tang Wude's daughter went to university, she's still like that." No matter how much he studied, it was useless if he didn't know how to be a human.”
After saying this, she turned to look at Li Qi and said,"Xiao Qi, you can't look down on her because of her low academic qualifications. You've studied a lot, so you should know more about reason than Mother. There's no difference between the noble and the lowly. In the end, it depends on the character of both parties. If you marry an unruly woman, you won't be able to live peacefully in the future. What do you think?"
Li Qi couldn't help but think of a clean oval face. The girl who used to blush at every turn had never spoken much since school. She was indeed a good girl.
He smiled and said,"Then let's meet."”
His mother was instantly overjoyed. She clapped her hands and said,"Yumei, go talk to Soo Soo's mother later and try to sound her out.”
Aunt Yumei also laughed and said," I think this will work. Xiao Qi is a university student after all. What else can her family not be happy about?"”
The two of them talked and laughed as if they had settled the matter. Li Qi did not know whether to laugh or cry.
After drinking the fish soup, Li Qi felt much warmer. After sending Aunt Yumei off, he came back to see his mother sitting on a chair massaging her kneecaps. Her face was frowning from the pain.
Li Qi quickly walked over and gently massaged his mother. He said,"Mom, Ergou and I have found something to do recently. We can earn a lot of money. In the future, don't go to the beach anymore. It's humid there and it's not good for your joints.”
"Hehe, okay. Mom, don't go too often in the future.”His mother said with a smile.
When Li Qi heard this, he knew that his mother was just brushing him off. He helplessly emphasized,"Mom, I'm serious. Give me a few more days and I'll be able to earn a lot of money. I'll build a big villa for you and hire a nanny for you.”
His mother was stunned when she heard that. She said,"Son, don't go astray just to earn money. Mom can live any life, but you must not do those illegal things!”
"Mom, what are you thinking?" Li Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Then what did you mean by what you just said?”His mother asked in confusion.
"Mom, I went out to sea with Ergou the day before yesterday!" Li Qi muttered to himself.”
His mother's expression changed immediately and she couldn't help but shout,"Brat, didn't I tell you? It's raining heavily outside and we can't go out to sea. You…"
Li Qi shook his head and said," Mom, listen to me. I'm a fisherman. My roots are at sea. I was born to make a living at sea. It's not like Dad and I never went out before the storm.”
His mother looked at Li Qi's solemn and serious expression and her eyes suddenly turned red."You little rascal…"
Li Qi was relieved to know that his mother did not blame him. He smiled and said,"Mom, don't be so sad. Guess what Ergou and I caught on this trip?”
His mother snapped," Catch my ass. It's such a big storm. You two are lucky to be able to come back alive."”
Li Qi laughed out loud." Mom, you're underestimating your son's ability. I've always been the best swimmer in the village since I was young. How can a mere storm stop me?"”
"You brat, you're still so cocky. When did you ever let me worry when I was young?”His mother scolded him jokingly.
Li Qi smiled." It's been hard on you all these years, mom. But this time, Ergou and I really made a fortune."”
"You really caught something good? What is it?" His mother asked, interested.
Li Qi smiled mysteriously and said,"Mom, Ergou and I caught a blue whale!"”
His mother's smiling face instantly froze, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
