"Sister-in-law Zhang Yan, this way."

Qiao Lingde saw the two come in and waved at them.

Zhang Yan glanced at Manjing and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Why is he here?" ”

Manjing said with a smile: "Lingde said that he wanted to invite us to dinner, so he booked a seat here in advance and ordered food, and waited for us to come over." ”

After Manjing and Zhang Yan took their seats, Qiao Lingde first said a few dishes he ordered, and then asked the two of them to order a few more according to their preferences.

Manjing ordered a Sixi ball that she wanted to eat, while Zhang Yan ordered a dish of crab roe tofu.

Knowing that it was Qiao Lingde who invited guests to dinner today, Zhang Yan smiled and expressed her gratitude.

Qiao Lingde hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, you have helped me a lot before." However, hearing Zhang Yan's name for himself, Qiao Lingde felt a little awkward, and couldn't help but propose: "In the future, you can call me Lingde directly, it's really weird to hear you call me Mr. Qiao." ”

didn't wait for Zhang Yan to speak.

Qiao Lingde continued: "In the future, I will also call you Ayan directly, and friends should call each other by their names. ”

When Zhang Yan heard this, she looked at Qiao Lingde with a smile and called "Lingde".

Hearing Zhang Yan call herself, Qiao Lingde only felt that her name seemed to be very good, so he exchanged courtesies, and he also called "Ah Yan".

Seeing the two people in front of her, Manjing always felt that she seemed to be superfluous, but some things still had to be confirmed, so she asked casually: "Ah Yan, have you found a partner after going to college, you are still two years older than me, but I am ahead of you." ”

Zhang Yan couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "That's because you were lucky and met the right person early, but I am not as lucky as you, and I haven't met the person I was destined to do until now." ”

"So, you don't have a partner yet."

Zhang Yan nodded directly, then looked at Manjing suspiciously and asked, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" ”

Manjing shook her head with a smile and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly felt it, and I always felt that I seemed to get married too early." ”

When Zhang Yan heard this, she hurriedly glanced at Qiao Lingde and found that he was not unusual, so she was relieved.

Then she glanced at Manjing and said, "You can be content, Brother Qiao is such a good person, not to mention when do you want Brother Qiao to go." "I really didn't expect Manjing to dare to say anything, and said to the Qiao family that it was too early to get married.

"Yes, yes, you're right."

Manjing said with a smile.

And after Qiao Lingde knew that Zhang Yan had no object, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, even he didn't know why he was a little nervous just now.

After eating, Zhang Yan couldn't help but think of the fact that she was going to find another place to live, and it happened that Qiao Lingde was a native of Kyoto, so she asked carefully.

Qiao Lingde heard that Zhang Yan was going to move out, and he thought it was very good, "Why don't I take you around tomorrow when you are free, I know that there are a few good places that are very suitable for you to live in, and they are also close to your school." ”

Zhang Yan smiled and nodded when she heard this.

Manjing glanced at Qiao Lingde, who had an enthusiastic attitude, and only ate silently.

After eating, Manjing and Zhang Yan planned to continue shopping for a while, and Qiao Lingde went back first.

Walking down the street, Manjing couldn't help but look at Zhang Yan and asked, "What do you think of Ling De?" ”

"It's good, very enthusiastic."

Manjing smiled when she heard this.

When the two of them were about to go shopping in the afternoon, Qiao Lingde was already waiting on the side of the horse, and saw the two coming over and hurriedly beckoning the two to get into the car.

Manjing raised her eyebrows and glanced at Qiao Lingde, she really didn't expect him to be so thoughtful, but this thoughtfulness was not for her.

And Zhang Yan was also stunned, just wanted to call Mr. Qiao, and thought of what the two said at noon, so she immediately changed her words: "Lingde, why are you here?" Are you here to pick up the cranberries and take them home? ”

But it's not right to think about it, it should still be his work time.

Qiao Lingde smiled and said, "I just finished my errands, thinking that you should be almost done, so I came over to see you home." With that, he drove to Zhang's house.

After sending Zhang Yan away, Qiao Lingde said: "Why don't I pick you up at noon the day after tomorrow, and I will rest the day after tomorrow, and we can take a look at those residences together." ”

Zhang Yan thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for you then." ”

Qiao Lingde nodded with a smile in his eyes, waved his hand and said goodbye to Zhang Yan.

When the two of them went home, Manjing couldn't help but laugh and said, "Lingde, seeing that you are so enthusiastic about Zhang Yan, you won't be interesting to her." ”

Qiao Lingde's ears were a little red, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, where do you want to go, I just want to help her more." ”

"Oh, so that's the case, that's good, originally I thought that Sister Yan was not young, I knew two very good young people before, and I was planning to introduce them to her."

Hearing this, Qiao Lingde was stunned, only felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and immediately retorted: "Sister-in-law, Ayan is still studying, don't worry." ”

"Sister Yan is not young, and she should be in a hurry, you see that I am already married, and she has no partner yet, so I took advantage of the early introduction to two good ones for her and asked her to pick a suitable one."

Qiao Lingde couldn't tell what he thought, but he had a feeling in his heart that he didn't want his sister-in-law to introduce Zhang Yan to the object, "Sister-in-law, in fact, I really don't need it, and Ayan is not too big." ”

Hearing this, Manjing's expression was a little solemn, "Lingde, if you are really interested in Sister Yan, then make your mind clear, if you are only a friendship between friends with her, then it is not your turn to take care of her affairs." ”

Qiao Lingde fell silent when he heard this.

In fact, he has always known that his character is not very good, and he has always been a little indecisive, and now he is still hesitant to encounter such a thing.

Thinking of the consequences of his indecisiveness last time, Qiao Lingde immediately said: "Sister-in-law, in fact, I think Ayan is very good, I ...... I want to get along with her, so please don't introduce her to someone just yet. ”

Hearing this, Manjing laughed, "Okay, since you said so, then I won't introduce her first, but Sister Yan is really a good girl, if you really like her, you must treat her well." ”

Qiao Lingde immediately nodded, his face firm.

After the two of them arrived home, Xia Yan couldn't wait to grab Manjing and asked, "Manjing, did you ask today?" Zhang Yan: Does she have a partner now? ”

Manjing smiled and said: "Second aunt, don't worry, Sister Yan, she doesn't have a partner yet, and she ......" Saying that, she raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiao Lingde and said: "Someone has clearly explained to me that she is interesting to Sister Yan and wants to work hard." ”

Xia Yan looked at Manjing, and then at Qiao Lingde, with joy on her face.
