Chapter 58: A Blind Eye
Liu Suling was very surprised when she first heard the news, but Jiang Yan was right, he came here as a guest, so he had to be entertained.
She didn't do it right away, but ran out to take a look.
Qin Bai was sitting on a chair outside, greeting Liu Suling's grandmother, and the second uncle and second aunt were on the side.
Seeing that they were talking and laughing, Liu Suling didn't go to say hello and went directly to the kitchen to prepare food.
Jiang Yan also came to help, and was making preserved eggs, preparing to make green pepper preserved eggs, when the second aunt came in.
She was gossipy, and when she came over, she asked Jiang Yan: "How old is that young man outside, and he is also a teacher in your school?"
Jiang Yan was cooking spicy seeds, and Liu Suling was peeling preserved eggs early, and she didn't pay much attention to her.
The second aunt saw that the two of them did not react, so she continued: "I think this young man is okay, he is quite tall, and he looks good, and I listen to him talk very politely, and he looks calm. You always say you can't find a suitable fit in your school, isn't this young man a good fit?"
Jiang Yan was stunned: "What are you talking about? Everyone is almost 30 years old, Xiaoling still wants to call him uncle, aren't you messing with the mandarin duck score?"
Not to mention Jiang Yan's surprise, even Liu Suling felt incredible, the second aunt would actually think of this.
After hearing Jiang Yan say this, the second aunt smiled awkwardly: "But I see that he is young, not like a person who is almost thirty years old, I thought he was ......."
Jiang Yan laughed: "He just looks young, when he first came to work at the school, many people said that he was only ten years old." ”
Liu Suling is quite curious, how young Qin Bai was when she was young.
The second aunt nodded again and again: "Then I know, but then again, is he married?"
"Not yet..."
"Haven't you married at this age?
Jiang Yan still shook her head: "No, Principal Liang said before that he would marry his daughter to him, but the woman was unwilling, and now she hasn't mentioned it."
After hearing this, the second aunt frowned: "That's really strange, I look at this young man for everything, why doesn't anyone want it......?"
She is also a gossip look, and she is very enthusiastic.
Jiang Yan responded helplessly: "He doesn't have any other problems, let alone a hidden disease, it's just that people pay more attention to this aspect of the problem." When I introduced him before, he told him that unless it was a special fit, he wouldn't force himself. ”
"Yo, I didn't see it, my mouth is quite tricky. The second aunt immediately changed her face, and her good impression of Qin Bai just now seemed to have disappeared.
Jiang Yan just smiled and didn't speak, and let the second aunt go.
The second aunt returned to the living room and never came back to the kitchen.
Liu Suling and the others brought the meal to the table after they finished it, and saw that the second aunt was still chatting with Qin Bai and them, but it was obviously not as enthusiastic as before.
The dishes were all served, and Liu Suling and the others were also on the table to prepare for dinner.
Not long after moving the chopsticks, the second aunt began to nag: "Our Xiaoling can catch up with the chef of the restaurant with this handful of dishes, I think whoever marries our Xiaoling in the future will be a blessing." ”
Jiang Yan saw that she said this thoughtlessly, and felt quite strange: "What do you say about this? Hurry up and eat, the food is not delicious when it is cold." ”
But the second aunt didn't mean to stop, and continued: "Aren't I helping Xiaoling with reference?"
After speaking, the second aunt looked at Qin Bai: "Teacher Qin, you should have more male teachers in school than my sister, is there a suitable introduction to one or two of our Xiaoling?"
Liu Suling didn't understand, what's wrong with the second aunt?
"Second aunt, I haven't graduated yet, so I'm not in a hurry about this. ”
As a result, the second aunt glared at her: "Why aren't you in a hurry? Aren't you all looking for a good partner before graduation, and getting married after graduation? Besides, even if you want to come out and talk about it, then at least you have to take a look, otherwise how do you know what type you are suitable for?"
Liu Suling remembered that her second aunt didn't pay special attention to Liu Suling's marriage, why is it so abnormal now?
Jiang Yan also felt very strange, and as soon as she said this, Qin Bai didn't speak, which made everyone quite embarrassed.
"Second sister-in-law, let's eat first, and then talk about it after eating?"
The second aunt looked at Jiang Yan, and finally nodded and didn't ask again, but looking at her like that, it seemed that she was quite dissatisfied with Qin Bai.
Liu Suling wondered, didn't she still talk and laugh before? Why do you look like an enemy now?
After eating, Liu Suling originally said that she was going to wash the dishes with her, but Jiang Yan stopped her: "You accompany your Uncle Qin to talk, and I will go to wash the dishes with your aunt." ”
Jiang Yan forcibly pulled the second aunt away, making the atmosphere a little more harmonious.
Of course, no one here is a fool, and everyone saw the attitude of the second aunt when she was eating just now, so she was a little embarrassed in the face of Qin Bai.
The eldest aunt is a very kind person, and she also thought that it was caused by the second aunt's unconcealed talk, so she hurriedly brought tea, melon seeds, and candy, and chatted with Qin Bai in a few words.
Grandma was sitting on the side and listening, and she didn't say much, but suddenly interjected: "By the way, Mr. Qin, where is your hometown?"
Qin Bai hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "My hometown is from Sunan's side, but since my parents died, I haven't been back there. ”
Grandma nodded: "I'm really sorry to ask you this question suddenly." So you all live in Principal Liang's house, have you moved out now?"
"I've moved out, and I'll move out when the school staff dormitory is repaired. I've been able to work and earn money on my own, and it's not a good idea to live in my teacher's house all the time. ”
Grandma hummed in agreement: "That's right, you really should move out." But then again, you're not too young, so you can think about personal issues. Don't think I'm too old, I just care about you, it's a pity that such an excellent young man. ”
As she spoke, my grandmother glanced at my aunt.
Da scolded and didn't know what he was thinking, so he quickly spoke: "That's right! I have a niece who is three years younger than you and works in a construction unit, do you want to think about it?"
Liu Suling immediately understood, it turned out that her grandmother asked so much just now, she just wanted to be a matchmaker.
Qin Bai didn't think much about it, and directly refused: "I think it's better to forget it, I understand your kindness." But I haven't thought about this problem yet, and my work hasn't stabilized yet, and I can't give anyone an explanation when I become a family. ”
