Chapter 228: This is fate
After finding a barbecue restaurant, Chen Xin ordered grilled crucian carp and other meat and vegetable skewers, and ordered a large portion of spicy snails and garlic crayfish, and called Liu Jianmin and asked him to come out for supper together.
After more than ten minutes, Liu Jianmin came and brought an unexpected person.
"Eh, Sister Xiao Sa, why are you ......?"
Chen Xin, who stood up, looked at the two people who came over together, completely stunned.
"Well, let me introduce you, Xiao Sa is my high school classmate, I haven't seen each other since I graduated from high school, but I didn't expect to send something today and find out that it was an old classmate. ”
Xiao Sa was also very surprised, in addition to the accident, there was another indescribable taste. In the afternoon, Xiao Sa asked for leave in advance and got off work, and then found a teahouse with Liu Jianmin to talk until now. It wasn't until Chen Xin called Liu Jianmin to have a supper together that the two of them remembered that they had even forgotten to eat dinner.
Just a few minutes after sitting down, Zhou Hao also ran over, and when he saw Liu Jianmin and Xiao Sa, he was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly greeted the two and sat down next to Chen Xin.
After sitting down, grilled skewers and snail crayfish were served.
"You Sister Xiao Sa can't eat spicy food, order a drink. Zhou Hao, drink beer?"
Liu Jianmin rarely took the initiative to speak out, and he also knew what Xiao Sa couldn't eat, is this a drama? Chen Xin and Zhou Hao glanced at each other, not stupid enough to ask if the two of them were rekindling their old relationship.
However, Chen Xin had a little more heart, and spent the whole night observing the two opposites, and later found that there seemed to be a little bit of possibility, and the two had talked before. As for how they were separated later, she didn't want to ask Liu Jianmin, so she decided to ask Liu Chunyan when she went back, she should know a little.
Sure enough, when Chen Xin called to ask in the evening, Liu Chunyan was a little sleepy and suddenly became energetic, and asked Chen Xin how she knew that the two of them had known each other before.
"How did I know they knew!" Chen Xin snorted twice, "How did I know that they knew, obviously I met Sister Xiao Sa when I was working part-time before, and I thought she was okay, so I wanted to find an opportunity to introduce her to Brother Jianmin, today I finally found an opportunity, I thought it would take a few more times to do it, and they actually came over for supper together in the evening! You don't know that I was stunned at the time, thinking that my mind was seen through, and I felt quite embarrassed." As a result, hehe, they actually knew each other for a long time!"
Hearing Chen Xin's complaint, Liu Chunyan smiled unkindly.
"Well, my parents don't know, I really know a little bit about it. ”
Liu Chunyan said that her brother graduated from high school and was admitted to college, but Xiao Sa was not admitted, originally her brother meant to let Xiao Sa repeat the exam for a year, anyway, there were more people who did not take the university entrance examination at that time, but Xiao Sa's family disagreed, saying that it was a waste of money, and she had to let Xiao Sa go to her mother's job.
"Maybe it's because I can't face my brother's expectations, and then Xiao Sa took the initiative to cut off contact with my brother, plus they only had a hazy good impression of each other at the beginning, since Xiao Sa didn't want to continue, my brother never went to her again. Later, the two got married. I didn't expect to be able to get together now. ”
The two chatted for almost two hours, and it was half past one before putting down the phone. After that, Chen Xin didn't ask about the two of them again, and she definitely didn't need her to fan the flames anymore when the old classmates rekindled, so Chen Xin found an opportunity to miss a sentence or two with Grandma Liu, and then continued to bury herself in her work.
"Xiaoxin. Grandma Liu stopped Chen Xin, who was carrying a lot of materials into the door, "Do you have time tomorrow night, go out for a meal." ”
"Huh, what's the meal?" Chen Xin was already so busy that she didn't know what to do, and it didn't mean anything to her at all.
"It's the same thing you told me last time, about Jianmin and his classmates. Tomorrow Jianmin plans to meet us, and he will return to the unit after that, and the next time he comes back will be a few months later. ”
Seeing her parents so soon? Chen Xin nodded blankly, and asked the woman's parents a little worriedly if they knew about Brother Jianmin.
Xiao Xiao said that her mother had passed away a few years ago, and then her father was now helping to take care of her grandson at her brother in Fujiang, so she was alone at home. I'm thinking about meeting tomorrow to see the situation, if it's appropriate, if you Brother Jianmin want to settle down, I'll find a time to meet Xiao Xiao's father and talk about the two of them. What do you say?"
What else can I do, it must be good. And she knew that Xiao Sa's father actually divorced Xiao Sa's mother a long time ago, it seemed that it was because Xiao Sa's mother was sick, but she didn't know when her mother died.
The next day, Chen Xin asked the teacher for leave, and rushed back in the afternoon to pick up the child, and then changed her clothes and dressed up.
The place to eat was not in a private restaurant, I found a time-honored restaurant, asked for a small private room, and the family sat there inexplicably a little embarrassed and stared at each other.
However, Liu Jianmin is a person who pursues silence is golden, and although Xiao Sa can speak well, he is a little shy when they meet for the first time, and he definitely can't take the initiative to provoke the topic, so the heavy task of warming up the scene rests on Chen Xin's shoulders.
"Sister Xiao Sa is the manager of the company I worked part-time in the last time, it's a good person, I didn't understand anything at the beginning, and Sister Xiao Sa taught me by hand. She is actually an old classmate with Brother Jianmin, this is really a coincidence, don't you say?"
introduced Xiao Sa's identity and occupation to Grandma Liu, and Xiao Sa also took the opportunity to start pouring tea for Grandma Liu and Grandpa Liu obediently, and praised Chen Xin and the two children by the way.
With the child as a topic, the atmosphere gradually eased, and Liu Jianmin's tense back was also soothed.
After Grandpa Liu's daughter-in-law made trouble last time, he was very suspicious of Liu Jianmin's vision, and among these people, he has been examining Xiao Sa. However, when it comes to scrutiny, he still agrees with Xiao Sa's courtesy and generosity, at least in this regard, his emotional intelligence is higher than that of his former daughter-in-law.
Regarding Xiao Sa's funeral, they have already learned about the situation from Chen Xin, and they will not hold on to this.
Anyway, Xiao Sa lost her husband, their son divorced, and both of them remarried, so no one should dislike anyone.
Grandma Liu feels very good about Xiao Sa, this child is flexible and speaks decently, which just complements her wooden son, and Chen Xin also thinks that the other party is not bad, so she thinks that it is good for the two to get married early and have a child early.
Chen Xin couldn't help but laugh and pulled Grandma Liu, who was sliding straight in the direction of getting married and having children, and signaled her not to be too anxious, beware of scaring others.
Grandma Liu glanced at Chen Xin and patted her forehead: "Hey, look at my old woman who is dizzy." In this way, Xiao Xiao, you discuss with Jianmin for a while, bring your father back, our two families will meet, and Jianmin's sister Chunyan, you also have to get to know each other, don't meet on the road and don't know who the other party is. ”
Xiao Sa glanced at Liu Jianmin, nodded shyly and promised to discuss the time with her father when she went back.
