Chapter 544: Showing Off Her Son-in-law ( 1 )
Because he and his wife have been reported before, Li Chenmo will not easily let down his guard and admit his relationship with the people in the black market. After all, no one can guarantee what the other person is thinking.
When Xiao Li heard this, he was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Lingyun, and said with confusion, “Brother Li, it was Brother Yun who told me about this.”
Seeing his Third Brother’s cautious look, Li Lingyun recalled the matter about him being reported before and said, “Third Brother, don’t worry. Ah Li is not someone who would betray his friends. I can guarantee this.”
Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows and looked at his second brother thoughtfully. Although they are brothers, his second brother has just returned to their family. Compared with him, the relationship between his second brother and Xiao Li is indeed closer. Since his second brother trusts Xiao Li, he will give him some faces and trust Xiao Li.
After weighing the pros and cons for a while, Li Chenmo nodded and said, “Since my second brother trusts you, then I will trust you too. Brother Xiao, I do have friends in the black market. However, I can’t introduce you to them. If you need anything, I can help you contact them instead.”
Xiao Li knows that people who work in the black market are secretive and don’t like to do business with unfamiliar people.
Because he just wanted to buy something, he didn’t insist and said, “Brother Li, I want to buy a radio, a sewing machine, and a bicycle. I wonder if you can help me find out about the price.”
Hearing his words, Li Chenmo said, “From what I know, a bicycle without a coupon is 300 yuan, and with one industrial coupon it is 250 yuan. As for the radio and sewing machine, I need to ask first.”
Xiao Li nodded when he heard the price. He had a guess about the price before come to visit.
At this time, he had about 1,200 yuan and 5 industrial coupons. He needs to divide the money for bride price and wedding banquet fee by 500 yuan. Therefore, he only has about 500 yuan to buy bicycles and other items. As for the remaining money, that’s his emergency fund.
After calculating the money, Xiao Li said, “Brother Li, if it’s possible, please help me ask the prices of thermos bottles, pots and woks.”
Li Chenmo and Li Lingyun listened to his words and knew that Xiao Li’s money was limited, but he was unwilling to give less to Liu Hua. They both understood how he felt and smiled.
“Okay, I will let you know after I find out about the price.” Li Chenmo nodded.
After getting his promise, Xiao Li breathed a sigh of relief. With his limited money, he may only be able to buy a bicycle. But he will work hard, earn more money, and buy the remaining things for his wife later.
After the discussion, Xiao Li went home at noon. Li Chenmo stood in the front yard, looked at his second brother and asked, “Second brother, when do you plan to visit your parents-in-law?”
After listening to his words, Li Lingyun smiled and said, “Your sister-in-law and I plan to visit her parents after the summer harvest. However, she has already told her family about me in the letter she sent to her parents.”
“So, did they say anything?” Li Chenmo asked.
“I don’t know, your sister-in-law didn’t tell me. However, I believe they won’t dislike me.” Li Lingyun said confidently.
Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows and said, “Oh? What makes you so confident?”
“Before marrying your wife, didn’t you give a lot of gifts to your parents-in-law? Everyone praised you as a good son-in-law. I learned from you and gave more gifts to my parents-in-law,” Li Lingyun said.
Li Chenmo frowned when he heard what he said. He did not remember giving gifts to his wife’s family before the wedding. He just gave her all his savings, and judging from his wife’s savings, it seems she didn’t use his money.
At this moment, he suddenly realized. Perhaps his wife was using him as a shield to give food and drink from her space to her family.
Thinking of this, he chuckled and admitted the credit shamelessly, “Well, I did give them a lot of gifts before.”
It seems that his wife already liked him at that time. Otherwise, why would she use his name? Isn’t it just to make her family’s impression of him better and better?
When he came to this conclusion, his heart was filled with happiness. Suddenly, he missed his wife very much and wanted to see her as soon as possible.
“Second brother, I’m going back first. My wife is still waiting for me at home.” Li Chenmo said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around, leaving Li Lingyun standing alone in the front yard.
Looking at the back of his third brother, Li Lingyun sighed and muttered, “Why did summer come so late this year? It seems that I have to talk to Jia Er about visiting her parents early.”
In the capital city, Mother Pan sat on a bench in the community garden, chatting with her neighbors.
“Sister-in-law, I heard that your second son is still single. I wonder if you have found a suitable partner for him.” One of her neighbors asked.

Knowing that her neighbor had a niece coming to visit, Mother Pan smiled and said, “My second son is too stubborn. I helped him find a few good girls, but he refused to even meet the girl. If he could listen to me like his brother, I might have more grandchildren now.”
“Sister-in-law, you must encourage your son to get married early. He is already 24 years old, which is the right age to get married. Hasn’t he already become a sergeant in the army? With his monthly salary, getting married is not a problem.” Another neighbor added.
