Chapter 55: The Widow and the Bachelor
"Yes." Shangguan touched Liang Huanhuan's forehead and said with a smile: "That day, I will go to the grave with your sister Qiuyun, and I will leave after going to the grave, and I can catch up for a reunion dinner in North China." ”
"That'...... Then I'll prepare my luggage now. Liang Huanhuan said.
"No need to prepare." Shangguan shook his head and said, "When you get there, Master will buy you a new one." By the way, if you want to cultivate in the future, you have to be single-minded, and you may not be able to go home for a long time, so you have to be mentally prepared. ”
Liang Huanhuan nodded: "Master, I'm ready." ”
Shangguan smiled slightly, rubbed Liang Huanhuan's little head, and turned his head to look at Liang Mengmeng: "Mengmeng, you don't have to rush back, just go back to North China after spending the Lantern Festival with your mother at home." ”
"Hmm." Liang Mengmeng nodded lightly and pursed her lips with a hesitant expression.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Liang Mengmeng's face, Shangguan Nengren said strangely: "Is there anything you want to say?" ”
"Brother Capable Man, I'm ...... My sister and I are gone, and my mother is the only one in the house, and I ......."
Shangguan Nengren understood, and sighed lightly: "Then what do you want to do?" If you want to take your mother to live in North China, you can also do it, I have a set of economic suitable houses over there that are still empty, and your mother and daughter can live enough. ”
Liang Mengmeng showed a smile on his face: "Thank you, brother Nengren, I'll discuss it with my mother when she comes back." ”
If you only leave Liang Mengmeng's mother here, it is indeed a little lonely, but thinking about it deeply, Liang Mengmeng's mother has lived here for so many years, at least there are many familiar neighbors, as well as parents and younger brothers here, but if she goes to North China with Liang Mengmeng, then she will only have Liang Mengmeng in North China, and she will have to refamiliarize herself with the environment, it is really hard to say which is better or worse, and if Liang Mengmeng's mother goes to North China, who will clean up the house that Lin Qiuyun stayed here?
It's more than three o'clock in the afternoon. Liang Huanhuan's mother came back, and when she heard the sensual person mention this matter, Liang Huanhuan's mother hesitated for a moment, and finally shook her head: "The children are all older, and they will have their own careers and families in the future, so I won't follow them, and Mengmeng and Huanhuan have someone to take care of them, and I don't need them, I have lived here for half my life, and now I want to finish the rest of my life." I won't go to North China, and when the children come back, there will always be someone in the family. ”
Hearing this, Shangguan Nengren smiled: "Auntie, you are only in your thirties this year, and you still have a lot of days to go!" If you are at your age in a big city, you have only just entered the maturity period, and some people are pursuing, so don't say that you are old. You'll live at least another fifty or sixty years in the future, and for such a long time, you'll have to find another partner, and now your family has money. It's not difficult to find a good one, and there is a companion who can accompany you when Mengmeng and Huanhuan are away, hehe, do you have a suitable one now? ”
Since Liang Huanhuan's mother didn't want to leave. Shangguan was relieved, and by the way, he teased, there is no way. Liang Huanhuan's mother is thirty-six or seventeen years old this year, although the pressure of life for more than two years has made her look a little weathered, but she is still a mature beauty when she dresses up a little, after all, she can give birth to such a lovely daughter as Liang Huanhuan and Liang Mengmeng, and she is also very good, she can score seventy, and the mother of two children can have seventy points, which is already a very high score.
So if Liang Huanhuan's mother wants to find a partner, it is not very difficult, and the two daughters have also begun to become independent, and there will be no family pressure in the future, and there will be 10 million settlement expenses, what man can't find this kind of condition? But because the conditions are good, if you want to find a partner in the future, you also need to choose well, and you must not find the kind of man who is lazy and smelly.
Liang Huanhuan's mother couldn't help but blush when she heard this, and Liang Huanhuan nodded approvingly: "Mom, my sister and I will be gone in the future, and we don't worry about you being home alone, if you can find a suitable man, you can marry him!" Don't worry about us, after all, you need happiness too. ”
Hearing her little daughter's words, her mother was very moved, and her daughter finally grew up and didn't have to worry about it herself.
Shangguan Nengren suddenly asked, "Auntie, I never knew what your name was?" Also, what year were you born? ”
Hearing this question, Liang Huanhuan's mother said: "I was born in 79, hehe, my name is very ordinary, my surname is Zhang, my name is Lilan, and almost all girls in that era have this kind of name." ”
Shangguan Nengren nodded, indeed, the name of the woman of that era is almost 'Li', 'Lan', 'Cui', 'Red', 'Lotus', 'Ying' and the like, the same, you can almost guess what era of people are when you hear the name, of course, today's children, the name is very strange, some parents also like to give their children a rare word, such as 'Yao', '惢', 'Yan', 'Miao', 'Kui' and the like, you don't know what to read, such as the word Yao, you know to read yao, don't know just say ' If this child goes to school in the future, the teacher will say when he is named: "Who is that ...... named Li Santu"
How do you let your child get it?
So an era has the characteristics of an era, and the name is also, Zhang Lilan is very in line with the characteristics of the seventies.
Shangguan Nengren smiled slightly: "Auntie, if you are not suitable, how about I help you go to the intermediary to make a marriage advertisement?" ”
Zhang Lilan hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, really no." ”
"Do you have the right one?" Shangguan asked.
"I ......" Zhang Lilan suddenly became stunned, seeing this reaction, Shangguan was stunned, and laughed: "It's really there!" Auntie, who is it? What's going on at home? ”
Liang Mengmeng and Liang Huanhuan didn't expect their mother to find a suitable partner behind their backs, and immediately asked: "Mom, who are you looking for?" Do we know each other? ”
"Yes! Is it Uncle Li from the alley ahead? But Uncle Lee is very ugly, and I don't like him. ”
Zhang Lilan blushed and shook her head repeatedly: "No, you don't know each other, it's an uncle in my mother's factory." ”
"Oh?" Liang Huanhuan asked, "Mom, what kind of person is he?" Is it reliable? ”
Zhang Lilan never thought that she would behave so shy in front of her daughter, and she had no mother's majesty at all.
He ...... The person is very good, very honest, and works hard, but the family has no money, and he has not found a partner in his thirties. ”
"Oh?" Shangguan Nengren smiled: "That's good!" People are honest and willing to work, although the family is poor. But we don't care about this, just be good, by the way, who else is in his family? ”
"There's no one anymore." Zhang Lilan shook her head: "He was abducted and trafficked by traffickers when he was a child, and then he escaped, and he asked for food until he went to Bocheng, and then he lived in Bocheng, and now he has been in Bocheng for 20 years, and he also has a house in Bocheng, which is a little smaller." It's a little old, but I think this person is very good, he doesn't smoke, drink, or gamble, and he loves to be clean, it's just ......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Lilan suddenly couldn't speak, and her face turned even redder.
"What's it?" The competent person asked.
"That's ......" Zhang Lilan blushed and said: "It's that he is also in his thirties, there is no woman in the family, and he will go to the hair salon every once in a while......"
"Uh......" Shangshang's capable person is a little embarrassed. Liang Mengmeng and Liang Huanhuan were a little puzzled, Liang Mengmeng asked, "Mom, what's wrong with going to the hair salon?" Don't men often go to cut their hair! ”
Shangguan Nengren coughed dryly and said, "My lord's business." Don't ask too much for children. ”
"......" Liang Mengmeng didn't understand yet, but Liang Huanhuan was thoughtful, and his face was a little red.
Shangguan turned his head to Zhang Lilan and said, "Auntie, there is no way to do it!" After all, he is also a normal man. It's over thirty again, and it's strange if you don't go to that kind of place, as long as you're not sick, you'll be fine. When the time comes, he won't go to that kind of place again, you say! ”
Zhang Lilan hummed lightly: "I think so too, and he has always been a little interesting to me, but you also know that I had to support Mengmeng and Huanhuan in the past, and I really didn't have the heart to think about those things, but now that Mengmeng and Huanhuan can be independent, I ......"
Shangguan Nengren smiled and said: "Auntie, while I was still there a year ago, you brought him home, and I will help you check it, not to mention anything else, I still see people very accurately, and I can understand at a glance whether they are good or bad." ”
"This ......" Zhang Lilan hesitated.
Shangguan smiled and said: "Auntie, after the New Year's Dream and Huanhuan are gone, how can you be alone when the time comes?" What if he's just a brute who knows people and doesn't know his heart? When the time comes, it will be too late to regret it. ”
"Then ......" Zhang Lilan hesitated for a moment again, and finally nodded: "Okay!" I...... Call him tomorrow. ”
Shangguan nodded with a smile: "Tomorrow at noon!" I'll come over at noon. ”
"Hmm." Zhang Lilan nodded shyly, and Liang Mengmeng cheered: "Great, mom finally doesn't have to be lonely." ”
"This silly girl." Zhang Lilan scolded with a smile, and Liang Mengmeng was a little confused: Why are you scolding me?
In a blink of an eye, at ten o'clock in the morning, Shangguan and Lin Qiuyun and Zhou Haina went to Liang Mengmeng's house together.
At this time, Zhang Lilan, Liang Mengmeng, and Liang Huanhuan were washing vegetables, and planned to eat hot pot and steamed buns at noon.
The steamed buns are hot pot, and this way of eating is really distinctive.
Shangguan can not be idle when he comes, and the mother and daughter are busy, Lin Qiuyun and Zhou Haina are also embarrassed to do nothing, and they are busy all the time, just after 11 o'clock, a man in his thirties wearing a suit and down jacket and riding a motorcycle, arrived, with two boxes of drinks tied to the back of the motorcycle, and two white chickens hanging on the handlebar in front of the motorcycle, plus a bag of fruit.
"Huzi, you're here!" When Zhang Lilan saw this man, she blushed a little and went up to greet her, and then said a little coquettishly: "Come on!" What are you buying so much for? ”
This man named Huzi shaved his flat head, looked quite energetic, but he looked silly, laughed silly, and touched the back of his head: "The first time I came, I didn't know what to buy, so I bought some casually." ”
"You, you, you won't be allowed in the future! Come on in! Zhang Lilan said with fruit and white chicken.
"Hey!" Huzi walked in behind Zhang Lilan with a drink, and saw two youthful girls in the room, as well as two thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, and an ordinary-looking man, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Shangguan and the four girls looked at the man in front of him, less than 1.8 meters tall, his body was quite strong, and his length was okay, not ugly or handsome, and a little honest, giving people a very down-to-earth feeling.
The competent person found that this man was very clean only through his sense of smell, and there were no bad signs of smoking and drinking, but there was still a little smell of inferior perfume on his body, and he must have gone to the hair salon two days ago. Other than that, there's nothing to fault with.
Especially Shangguan Nengren feels that this person's heart is very positive, and there is no bad breath on his body, but his IQ looks a little low, as if he is at the same level as Liang Mengmeng, no wonder he hasn't found a partner in his thirties, this kind of foolish man, family conditions are not good, ordinary women don't dare to follow him, and only Zhang Lilan has sufficient settling-in expenses. The widow, who has nothing else to worry about, can take a fancy to him, and this man looks very good in physique, which can satisfy Zhang Lilan.
A woman is thirty like a wolf and forty like a tiger, if she doesn't have a good physique, she can't bear it, Shangguan can feel that this man's vitality is very sufficient, the capital is sufficient, and there is no problem to satisfy Zhang Lilan.
Seeing this, Shangguan can probably see that this man is indeed a good match for Zhang Lilan. And in the future, the situation of the family will also be seen clearly by the competent people, and it will definitely be Zhang Lilan's housekeeper in the future, the man goes out to work to earn money, and the money is handed over to Zhang Lilan. And the man's task is to let Zhang Lilan command, and then the two of them will snap in bed at night.
A simple family, but very harmonious, and very suitable for two people. A widow who has no husband and a daughter who is independent, and an old bachelor who has not been married for more than 30 years. The two are indeed a perfect fit.
Shangguan Nengren smiled and said, "Auntie, who is this?" We don't have an introduction yet. ”
Hearing Shangguan Nengren's somewhat ridiculous tone, Zhang Lilan's face turned red and said: "This is the tiger of our factory, his name is Wang Hu, it's Chinese New Year's Eve seven today, you ...... Just call your name Uncle Wang. ”
"Oh? Hehe, hello Uncle Wang. The competent man took two steps forward and stretched out his hand.
"Huh? You...... Hello. Wang Hu hurriedly put the drink aside, and then rubbed his hand on his clothes, and then shook it with Shangguan.
Seeing this small detail, Shangguan knew that this was an honest man, and smiled: "Uncle Wang, don't be nervous, we are all aunts' juniors, and we are likely to be a family in the future, don't be polite." ”
Zhang Lilan's face turned red: "You kid, what are you talking about?" ”
"Uh...... Hehe...... Hehehe......" Wang Hu touched the back of his head with a hint of surprise on his face and smirked.
Lin Qiuyun and Zhou Haina looked at Wang Hu, and finally bowed their heads and asked Liang Mengmeng and Liang Huanhuan, "What do you think?" ”
Liang Huanhuan didn't say anything, Liang Mengmeng tilted his head and thought about it, and said, "Stupid." ”
"Are you qualified to call others stupid?" ×3
Liang Mengmeng stopped talking.
"Huanhuan, what do you think?" Lin Qiuyun asked.
Liang Huanhuan thought for a long time and said, "It's more suitable for my mother." ”
Lin Qiuyun smiled slightly: "I also think it's quite suitable, now Auntie needs a man who has no heart and is willing to be obedient, Henna, what do you think?" ”
Zhou Haina hummed lightly and said, "I also think it's quite suitable, a bachelor and a widow, just like dry firewood...... Ouch! ”
Shangguan Nengren withdrew his fist and pulled her aside: "Go, make tea." ”
Zhou Haina glared at him hatefully: "Dare to hit me, you wait." "Saying that, I still made tea honestly.
Shangguan people followed Zhang Lilan and Wang Hu into the back room, Wang Hu sat on the chair with some restraint, and Shangguan people smiled: "Uncle Wang and Aunt are working in the same factory now, is the efficiency of the factory okay?" ”
"Okay." Wang Hu nodded: "The factory is relatively formal, the funds are quite healthy, and there is no wage arrears." ”
Seeing that Wang Hu talked about the things of the factory, and his language was very clear and fluent, it can be seen that he is very familiar with everything in the factory, Shangguan Nengren nodded secretly and smiled: "How many years has Uncle Wang been working in the factory?" What is the current position? ”
"I've been doing it for sixteen years." Wang Hu suddenly said with some embarrassment: "I entered the factory at the age of twenty-one, and I have come all the way through ups and downs, and now I am also a workshop director in the factory." ”
"Oh, workshop director! That's good. Shangguan Nengren smiled: "The monthly salary is okay, right?" ”
"It's okay." Wang Hu touched the back of his head and said, "Now three thousand yuan a month is relatively high in the factory." ”
The per capita salary in Bocheng is only about 1,000 yuan, and Wang Hu's salary is 3,000 yuan, which is not bad in Bocheng, and the competent people are also more satisfied with this amount, after all, Wang Hu wants to make money to support his family in the future, if he only has more than 1,000 yuan a month, what kind of family will he raise? Let Zhang Lilan raise idlers?
Shangguan Nengren smiled: "That's really good." After a pause: "Uncle Wang, you are in your thirties this year, and you are good in all aspects, why haven't you found a partner yet?" ”
Speaking of this, Wang Hu's face darkened, and he said a little bitterly: "I only have a broken house now, and there is nothing at home, I am so old, I am still a fatherless and motherless outsider, and the local people refuse to marry their daughters to me, and I didn't even have a house a few years ago, and now the broken house is still saved for more than 20 years, I just bought it two years ago, the house is small and broken, and it still leaks on rainy days, and I have to pick up the roof from time to time, I am now looking forward to the house being demolished as soon as possible, and I can also return a new house. Even if it's small, it's nothing, just have a home to live in. ”
After listening to Wang Hu, even though she already knew his situation, Zhang Lilan couldn't help but redden, and comforted: "Huzi, don't be sad, life will always get better and better." (To be continued......)
