Chapter 21: Acquaintance

The acquaintance of Bai Ling and Fang Ming is a kind of fate, a chance encounter, and a coincidence. It seems that there is really a fate to meet thousands of miles away, but there is no chance to meet on the other side. Yue Lao had already tied the red rope for the two of them. So they're all waiting, waiting for this opportunity to meet.

For Bai Ling's marriage, Bai Ling's aunt Bai Yuzhen was also heartbroken. She treats this niece like a daughter. All the fellows who can be contacted, she gives entrustment and asks for help for her niece Bai Ling's marriage. And Bai Ling is not in a hurry about her life's major events, it seems to be dispensable.

Bai Ling was 28 years old at the time, and her best friends and roommates of the same age had already been married, and she enjoyed the joy of family as a mother, and she was the only one who was still waiting for her to be written. Bai Ling's dormitory is like a training base, the girls who walked out of this base quickly changed their identities and upgraded to mothers, and the roommates changed batch after batch, Bai Ling almost reached the age of being an aunt, and still adhered to the territory of the single dormitory.

At work, Bai Ling's technical level and ingenuity are as beautiful as her nickname "White Peony". Therefore, the leader of the unit named her to be a maintenance worker. At that time, due to the constraints of production equipment and technical conditions, there was a shortage of spare parts for production machines and transportation vehicles. Maintenance workers must have the ability to "repair, modify, and replace", so as to ensure the normal operation of the machine and the normal operation of the vehicle. Bai Ling has this potential. This makes many big men admire the five-body throw.

On the issue of personal marriage, Bai Ling is not only a little sluggish, but simply ignorant. Not having the slightest interest in marriage seems to be a dispensable thing. Colleagues looked for a partner for her, but she often politely declined. She said that she had to think about the two brothers' starting a family first. There are also many handsome guys who wave an olive branch of courtship to her, but she doesn't even reach out to pick it up. Invite her to watch a movie, invite her to dinner, invite her to the park, she refuses to do anything. She thinks that eating other people's mouths is soft, and taking other people's hands is short. If you don't have merit, you can't owe favors at will.

At night, she never walked out of the door of the women's dormitory. On Sundays, she would never go shopping without a few female companions to accompany her.

One of Bai Ling's fellow villagers sent an invitation to Bai Ling to thread the needle for her and be a matchmaker. I want to introduce her to a person named Fang Ming.

Bai Ling did not refuse this time. One is that her two twin brothers are already married and have children. Promoted to aunt by herself. She now had time to think about her own problems; The second is to give this fellow face. Because I still have some pros with this fellow, I have some history. This is entrusted by the little aunt; Moreover, if you don't get married, it will make your two younger brothers look bad.

She went to the appointment with the mentality of trying it out. She didn't take this meeting seriously in her heart. She acts when she sees the opportunity, is at peace with the situation, and cannot be forced in everything. Therefore, there is neither deliberate makeup nor dressing up, it is completely casual and natural.

The introducer quietly told Bai Ling: "Fang Ming is very smart and an all-rounder. Especially if he writes well, he writes Chinese characters that everyone loves, but he is really a great talent. ”

Bai Ling thought to herself at the time, what's the good of being able to write articles? The article can't be eaten as a meal.

At that time, the so-called meeting was not one-on-one, but several people sitting together to chat and introduce each other to each other. On the surface, there are many ways to meet more friends, and behind it is the first impression of two people. If both parties are sincere and the road continues to move forward, then there will be an opportunity to meet and talk alone. If one of the parties disagrees, the matter ends there. They knew each other, but no one pierced this layer of window paper. This avoids the embarrassment of future meetings. And other people present may not know that there is a blind date in this.

In our traditional marriage country of "parents' orders, matchmakers' words", free love is still greatly restricted and restricted, especially for girls like Bai Ling, who came out of the countryside, and are even more conservative in marriage issues. So, despite being a thin veil, as long as it is not lifted, everything is business as usual, and nothing will be affected.

It was a Saturday night in early June. At the villager's house, Bai Ling and Fang Ming met for the first time. Of course, there were several people present. There are fellow villagers, friends with friends. Since everyone is fortunate to sit together, it is fate. Everyone introduces themselves to each other, and this is like building a bridge of friends.

Fang Ming only sat for ten minutes, then got up and clasped his fists with both hands and said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I still have an article to write overtime, so I'll leave first."

Bai Ling's fellow villagers hurriedly got up to send them off. Ask for Fang Ming's opinions and views downstairs. Fang Ming said: "If the woman is willing to talk, things will continue to move forward." The woman doesn't want to, so let's end the matter. ”

"What if the woman completely agrees?"

The introducer asked with a tentative hypothesis. Fang Ming is even more cheerful and accurate: "If the woman agrees, the wedding can be held tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." As long as she doesn't think I'm poor. ”

Fang Ming's cheerfulness surprised the introducer. According to the introducer's feelings, Fang Ming's mate selection conditions must be very harsh, but he didn't expect it to be so calm.

The introducer---- Bailing's fellow countryman, fully revealed his true feelings.

"Bai Ling, how do you think about this person? What is your attitude towards this? ”

Bai Ling's face flushed slightly: "Since people can be so happy, then I will be happy and promise others." ”

"You haven't spoken to each other yet. Want to know more? ”

Bai Ling's happy consent made the introducer cautious. The introducer had to ask further suggestively.

"You gave me all the details of the people. I'm sure you've already told people about my situation. Isn't it all like that when you talk about it or not? ”

Bai Ling said very earnestly.

"So that's the end of the matter?" The introducer had to ask Bai Ling again.

"It's set". Bai Ling replied in the affirmative. She didn't seem to be talking about her marriage, but like she was doing someone a favor and dealing with a trivial matter.

That night, in just ten minutes, a lifelong event that determined the fate of the two people's lives was solved.

The next day, Bai Ling was nervously doing her job as usual. Suddenly, she received a call from the introducer: "Bai Ling?" That thing is already dead. Fang Ming has been very busy at work recently, and whenever he has time, he will go to the unit to find you and discuss the specific time of the wedding by the way......"

The two of them only knew each other for ten minutes, and they decided for life without talking a word. As soon as they meet again, they will have to get married at a specific time, which is simply incredible in the eyes of others.

Bai Ling said to the introducer on the other end of the microphone, "I see." ”

None of the colleagues next to her knew that this ordinary phone call was only a few words that decided her life.

She did not get carried away with joy, and desperately hoped that this man would come soon; I didn't think about it repeatedly, and I regretted being sloppy. It's as if she's settled an old account, and now she can work without worry.

This blooming white peony instantly became famous, but the people around her didn't know it.
