Chapter 6: The Power of Speech
Yu's mother looked at her daughter who was sulking alone, and she also felt very incomprehensible, and she couldn't figure out how to think about an older young man like Zhou Ming, who was useless, where was it worth Yu Li's memory?
"Yu Li, just now the matchmaker Aunt Liu came again and asked if you would like to continue the blind date with Yan Jiecheng?"
"Mom, do you think it won't be embarrassing for me to continue to go on a blind date with Yan Jiecheng? In the future, He Yuzhu and I will live in a courtyard house, thinking about his good every day, don't you worry about me doing something wrong? Yu Li looked at her mother with red eyes, and said something that her mother couldn't refute at all.
"Huh? Yu Li, you're right, it's your mother and I owe it to you. ”
"Mom, will you let me be quiet for a while?"
"Hey! Silly Zhu is an older youth, what is there to be nostalgic for? ”
"Mom, have you seen He Yuzhu himself? Wouldn't others maliciously spread rumors? Yu Lisheng looked at her mother without love.
"Huh? His neighbors have said that, and there must be some truth to it. Yu's mother also knew that it was wrong to listen and believe, but she still said strongly.
"Mom, the same sentence, if you change it to a different statement, it may present a completely different result." Yu Li looked at her mother helplessly, "This is a kind of rhetoric, I think you should have learned it." ”
"Huh? Come on! Don't be cranky. Yu's mother knew that she couldn't talk about her daughter, after all, she had a high school graduate, and then she could only change the topic with a smile, "Yu Li, in a few days, your cousin's child will get married, and I will take you to the banquet, and there will be many good young people at the banquet." ”
"I'm not going!"
"Yu Li, you are not too young." Looking at her daughter who was still sulking, Yu Mother said earnestly and persuasively, "Don't be angry with your marriage, maybe there is a better one waiting for you." ”
No matter how unwilling Yu Li was, she had to admit that a marriage without the blessing of her relatives was destined to be unhappy, so she compromised.
……
Zhou Ming is a temperament that can afford to let go, it was originally a dispensable chance encounter, there is no need to be earth-shattering like Liang Zhu, in that case, it would be extremely ridiculous.
The next morning, Zhou Ming went to work again in good spirits, and met his sister when he went out, after all, it was difficult for the two siblings to sit together.
"Rain, are you resting today?" Zhou was obviously a little surprised.
"Well, brother, did you make breakfast?"
"Nope! I want to eat and make it myself. ”
"Humph! I'm too lazy to cook. He Yushui also wanted to continue to gather wool, "You still give me five yuan, and I'll go out and buy some breakfast by myself." ”
"He Yushui, you will ask me for five yuan for breakfast, and eating breakfast seven times is my salary for a month, do you think I can still support you?"
"Huh? A dollar will do the trick! He Yushui also realized that he had gone too far, and then smiled and took the initiative to lower the breakfast standard.
"Nope! I've already pulled the famine myself! ”
After Zhou Ming finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to his stupid sister, walked out of the courtyard and went to work, all the way to the Red Star Rolling Mill leisurely, Zhou Ming found that he was used to this kind of slow-paced life, and felt that he was now short of a beautiful wife, otherwise he would be a proper winner in life.
Zhou Ming came to the second canteen of his place of work and found that his colleagues had already arrived, Liu Lan was pleasantly surprised when she saw Zhou Ming, and she didn't know when she felt that Zhou Ming felt very secure.
"Silly pillar, you've come here." Liu Lan said with a complaining face, "Yesterday, I was almost scolded by Deputy Director Li for you." ”
Looking at Liu Lan with a smile on her face, not like she said, Zhou Ming said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work!" The matter has been settled. ”
"Hehe, that's good!"
Soon everyone was once again engaged in boring work, and under Zhou Ming's constant strict requirements, the kitchen and windows of the second canteen were clean, tidy and bright.
The workers also particularly like the window of the second canteen, not only because of the good taste of the second canteen, but also because they feel very comfortable every time they come, and they always feel that eating in the second canteen is the most hygienic.
Deputy Director Li looked at the busy crowd, and saw Zhou Ming standing in the C position at first glance, and then unconsciously showed a relaxed expression.
Hearing Director Ren's words last night, he realized that the treatment given to Zhou Ming by the rolling mill was too low, which was not in line with Zhou Ming's current cooking skills at all, and Deputy Director Li was suddenly very worried that Zhou Ming would be poached by others.
"Master He, come over here."
"Director Li, do you have something wrong?" Zhou Ming put down the work in his hand with a smile, and then walked straight forward.
"Master He, I heard Liu Lan say last night that your father was hospitalized for a sudden illness." Deputy Director Li looked at Zhou Ming with a concerned expression, "There is no big problem, right?" ”
"Huh?" Zhou Ming immediately thought that it was Liu Lan who was hospitalized because He Daqing was sick and covered for himself, "Thank you Director Li for your concern, my dad is just a common little cold, and now he is much better." ”
"Well, that's good." Deputy Director Li nodded first, and then explained in a low voice, "Master He, I have prepared ten catties of eggs and five catties of pork, and you will take them back to make up for your father when you get off work later!" ”
"Huh? It's embarrassing, my dad was just a common cold. Zhou Ming was a little surprised, and what immediately came to mind was to excuse himself.
"That's it! Don't shirk it, the impact is not good. Deputy Director Li smiled disapprerovingly and said, "I have already said hello to the security team, you can go to the logistics director after work." ”
"Then thank you Director Li."
"Master He, in a few days, Director Ren of the Planning Bureau has a relative who needs to hold a wedding banquet, and I want you to go over and take a spoon."
"Yes! Just go back and tell me the address. ”
"Don't be so troublesome, Director Ren will send a car to pick you up at that time, you just go with you."
"Well, good! I know. ”
……
At this time, Yan Bugui had already been informed by the matchmaker Aunt Liu that the girl was unwilling to meet Yan Jiecheng, so she could only continue to look for a new blind date for Yan Jiecheng.
Although the matchmaker Aunt Liu repeatedly assured that she had many candidates, Yan Bugui always felt unhappy, and had a strange feeling of losing what should have belonged to their family.
"Old Yan, this girl is so temperamental, I still don't agree!" The three mothers said sourly.
"Alright! The girl has a big temperament, which proves that the conditions are excellent enough, and there is no shortage of blind dates at all. ”
"Humph! My son Yan Jiecheng is not bad. The three mothers continued to refute, but they seemed more and more powerless.
"A temporary worker, only eighteen yuan a month, can even be late for a blind date, I don't see anything wrong."
"Surnamed Yan, are you still finished? Isn't Yan Jiecheng your son? The three mothers were completely blown up by Yan Bugui's "poisonous tongue".
"Humph! Mothers are so defeated! ”
Yan Bugui did not continue to "poison the tongue", but turned around and picked up his fishing rod to fish, some people drink to relieve their worries when they are upset, but Yan Bugui prefers to rely on fishing to relieve pressure, because he thinks this is the most cost-effective way.
Seeing that Yan Bugui went fishing again, the three mothers didn't say anything more, she also knew that this incident was Yan Jiecheng's fault, and then she didn't continue to entangle.
There is no so-called secret in the courtyard, and the whispers spoken by the husband and wife may be passed out, not to mention that the news of Yan Jiecheng's blind date failure was used by the neighbors as a talking point for the first time.
In this era, there is a lack of entertainment programs, and it is a great thing to be able to listen to a radio, so they all like to talk about the short things of the East and the West.
"Lao Liu, I heard that Yan Xie in the front yard failed on a blind date."
"Humph! It must be Yan Bugui slamming the door again, right? "Bangs have always thought they know people well.
"It's not! It is said that Yan Jiecheng was late for the blind date, but the girl was so angry that she didn't give her face. The second aunt shook her head, and then explained.
"Oh? The girl is so temperamental? Bangs couldn't help but be surprised, "In other words, Yan Jiecheng hasn't even seen this girl's face?" ”
"Well, it seems so."
"Huh! Yan Bugui has been smart all his life, and he actually gave birth to Yan Xie to become such a waste, if it were my son, I would have to beat him to cry and call his mother. ”
"That's it! Yan Jie's achievement is to be beaten! "The second aunt is also used to the violence in the bangs to solve everything.
Qin Huairu's house.
Jia Zhang suddenly looked at Qin Huairu, who was folding clothes, and then showed an excited expression, "Huairu, I heard that Yan Xie Cheng failed on a blind date in the front yard. ”
"Oh? It shouldn't be! Qin Huairu looked a little surprised, after all, Yanbu's noble family was very wealthy, "The life of the three great masters' family is so good, how could the girl not be in love?" ”
"Haha, it's not that I didn't meet each other, it's that I haven't met at all!"
"Huh? Mom, what's going on? Qin Huairu was really curious now.
"Yan Jiecheng was late for the blind date, but the girl was too angry, so she turned around and left directly, and didn't pay attention to Yan Jiecheng anymore."
"Huh? How could there be such a big temperament? ”
"Yes! It's incredible. Jia Zhang also felt a little incredible, and then looked at Qin Huairu on a whim, "Huairu, what if you tell Jingru to Yan Jiecheng?" ”
"Impossible! Didn't the three masters always look down on rural hukou? He wouldn't agree! Qin Huairu directly shook his head with a wry smile.
"This is not necessarily, now that Yan Jiecheng's matter has spread, if Yan Bugui doesn't want his son to be unable to marry a daughter-in-law like a stupid pillar, he will definitely agree."
When Qin Huairu heard Jia Zhang's point of view, she also showed a heartfelt expression, "Mom, you're right, why don't I go to the house of the three masters in the front yard and ask?" ”
"Well, it's not a shame to ask, it's up to them to make their own decisions if they don't agree."
That night, Qin Huairu came to the front yard, and then walked straight into Yan Bugui's house, "Third master, are you at home?" ”
"Qin Huairu, are you in trouble?" Yan Bugui's family was a little surprised.
"Hehe, it's a bit of a problem."
"Huh? Then come in and sit! Yan Bugui let Qin Huairu into the house with a puzzled face.
As soon as Qin Huairu sat down, he said the purpose of his trip, "Third master, you have met my sister Qin Jingru as a brother in reconciliation, right?" ”
"I've seen it! Just the last time she came to our courtyard. "The Yan family is very confused.
"Hehe, then if I want Qin Jingru to reconcile into a brotherly blind date, are you willing to do the three masters?"
"Huh?"
Yan Bugui's family did not answer Qin Huairu directly, but said that they needed to think about it, of course, this seemed rude, but Yan Bugui's family had this strength.
There are a lot of families living in the courtyard, but the three uncles are among the best, which is one of the reasons why the big guy chose them to be the housekeeper, so Yan Jiecheng has the ability to pick and choose when he goes on a blind date.
Many people may think this is incredible, but as soon as you connect with real life, you understand that this phenomenon is normal.
Yan Bugui is not a fool, of course he knows that the failure of this blind date is fatal to Yan Jiecheng's reputation, and it is almost impossible to continue to pick and choose.
And now Qin Jingru mentioned by Qin Huairu just made up for their difficulties, and then Yan Bugui looked at Yan Jiecheng, "Jiecheng, this is your own marriage, what do you think?" ”
"Dad, Qin Jingru is quite beautiful." Yan Jiecheng was a little moved.
"Huh! We didn't say that Qin Jingru was not beautiful. Yan Bugui was almost laughed at by his son, and said with a hatred of iron and steel, "The problem is that she has a rural household registration and it is impossible to find a job in the city, are you sure you have the ability to support her all the time?" ”
"Huh? Probably can, right? Yan Jiecheng also said with some uncertainties, "I can turn regular next month, and my salary can grow to twenty or thirty yuan, I should be able to support two people, right?" ”
"Since you think you have the ability, then it's better to agree." Yan Bugui said helplessly, "But our ugly words are ahead, and you can't give any less to your family." ”
"Dad, I see." Yan Xie Cheng was pleasantly surprised.
"Lao Yan, did you really let our son marry a rural girl?"
"So what else can I do? Can he still marry in the city? Yan Bugui was also very unwilling in his heart, but now he was also a little scared, "Don't become a stupid pillar in the end, then our family will have no face to see people." ”
"Huh? Probably not, right? ”
In this way, Yan Jiecheng and Qin Jingru first started on a blind date, and then it didn't take long for them to get married and get a license, which can be said to be very fast.
"Silly Zhu, the day after tomorrow is a good day, Xie Cheng and Qin Jingru are married, how about you come to help the spoon?" As soon as Yan Bugui saw Zhou Ming, he showed his signature smile.
"Huh? Three masters, what a coincidence! Zhou was obviously a little speechless, and things all collided together, "I happened to promise someone else that day to make a wedding banquet for their family." ”
"Huh? Such a coincidence? Yan Bugui's face was full of doubts.
"Three masters, if you don't believe it, you can go to the rolling mill to inquire!" Zhou Ming saw Yan Bugui's questioning, and then explained with a wry smile, "This is something that Deputy Director Li personally arranged. ”
