Chapter 002: Happiness
"Ah, you still want me to go? Are you bringing outsiders with you when you go back? Is it just me?" I asked in confusion.
"What's the point? New rules and new rules! Wu Yu is pregnant, so I can only take care of him. It's hard to bring him home gifts, so I have to help. You're fine."
Ah Bing answered with a smile, "Go ahead, Qian Cheng, if you don't like the younger sister, then you guys just keep trying to get her (brother-in-law), so we'll just have one more wedding banquet."
"I'm embarrassed. I won't go. Are you going on a blind date or just to catch up? I'm so embarrassed to go." I said it was a refusal, but actually I felt happy.
"We have Jianjun and Wu Yu here, why should we be embarrassed?" Wei Dong said, "Go! If you don't want to go, I will go. We will have food and drink."
When Wu Yu heard my refusal, she also said, "It's okay, don't be embarrassed, we are all here and will be back in the evening."
I nodded, "Okay."
It was hard for me to fall asleep that night. Thinking of seeing Wu Qing again tomorrow, I was so excited that I couldn't express my excitement...
The next day, it was still raining lightly. I tied up the back seat of my bicycle and returned to the door. Jianjun took Wu Yu on the back seat. The three of us arrived at the Wujia intersection in two cars in half an hour. From a distance, we saw Wu Qing holding up
Umbrellas are waiting at the door.
"Sister, brother, morning." When he saw me, he smiled slightly and said nothing.
Wu Yu got out of the car carefully with a big belly. Jianjun parked the bicycle, helped me unload the gifts from the car, and carried it into the house.
"Where's dad and mom?" Wu Yu asked his sister Wu Qing.
"In the kitchen." Wu Qing replied, then pulled her sister into the kitchen.
Jianjun and I were eating melon seeds and drinking tea at the gate. Jianjun told me in a low voice that Wu Qing said yesterday that she thought I was suitable and wanted to bring her sister and me together.
Of course I am very happy. I can imagine that the Wu family must be talking about me in the kitchen.
During lunch, a large table of dishes was placed on the table. Father Wu was very enthusiastic and held up a wine bottle to pour me wine.
I stood up and quickly blocked the bottle, "Uncle, you're welcome, I don't know how to drink."
"Less, don't be polite!" Father Wu insisted.
I smiled and said, "If you really don't drink, I won't come here if you're polite."
Jianjun stood up in a hurry and said, "Dad, Qian Cheng doesn't want to drink, so just drink."
When Wu Qing heard Jianjun's explanation, she picked up the drinks and poured a cup for everyone.
This was the first time for me to be in such a scene. The other party was a family member. It felt so awkward and there was no topic to talk about. I just sat there dryly and had a meal. It was simply a torment.
In a blink of an eye, it was already the end of the New Year, and a group of young brothers gathered at A Bing's house to drink. A Bing and Jianjun were from the same village, and naturally Wu Yu was no exception.
Wu Yu quietly said to me, "Qian Cheng, my aunt has asked someone to inquire. Tell me more about your family's good relationship. My mother agrees with you and the second sister, but you must be prepared. The second sister wants to recruit a son-in-law, but now
It’s fashionable to live on both sides.”
Jianjun took over the topic, "We won't care about it next. It's up to you. A man must take the initiative! You, you won't lie to your wife. You have to do this every three days!"
Wu Yu shouted at Jianjun, "Who looks like you? You are deceiving people."
Jianjun said proudly, "It's better to be honest than to cook."
Wu Yu raised his fist at Jianjun and looked at him, "You are a gangster! Qian Cheng, don't listen to him. I work with him every day and was fooled by him."
I looked at the quarreling couple and said with a smile, "How can I be as good as him?"
That night, I tossed and turned, unable to sleep. The image of Wu Qing's smile was all in my mind. The three meetings really made my heart beat, but I didn't dare to hope for it. Now I agree to date. This is my first love in society. How to date?
?With no experience, everything can only be allowed to happen naturally. I know in my heart that agreeing to date is just the first step in a long journey of thousands of miles...
A few nights later,
I lingered at the window outside Wu Qing's unit for a long time, but never had the courage to go to the window to say hello. I was 2 meters away from the window and silently watched Wu Qing working next to the color printing machine.
Men must take the initiative! Suddenly I remembered the so-called experience of Jiang Jianjun, and I mustered up the courage.
I stood outside the window and shouted to Wu Qing inside, "Hey! Second sister, you go to middle school!"
The mechanical equipment was not very noisy. When Wu Qing heard the sound and looked up, she was a little surprised when she saw me, "Oh, it's you!" Then she pressed the temporary button on the equipment, walked to the window, and asked again, "Are you watching a movie?
you alone?"
"Yes, it seems that your work is quite easy."
"I'm tired no matter what. I stand all the time from work to get off work."
I finally had a topic and calmed down my excitement, "It's automatic, why can't I sit down?"
"To collect paper, we need to add paper and ink."
"Oh, I finished the movie and you happened to get off work. I'll take you home." After I finished speaking, I looked away and didn't dare to look at her again. Although I knew she had agreed to date, I was still embarrassed.
"I'm going back with a colleague from the 18th Village. He's on the way."
"Oh, I will be transferred to your home on Monday. You are welcome!" My heart was pounding and I was afraid of being rejected. I offered to send her off work or watch the love experience of my cousin Si Si next door.
"Okay, welcome, I'm at work." Wu Qing understood what I meant and shyly turned around to operate the machine, embarrassed to look back at me again.
When I heard Wu Qing's answer, I was overjoyed, and it took a long time for my heart to calm down.
When the movie ended, I looked at the time at 10:30. It was still half an hour before Wu Qing got off work. Today was the beginning of dating. Although she said that she had colleagues coming off work with her, I could watch them off from a distance. It was also a happy thing. When I thought about it,
Happiness arises spontaneously...
I finally made it to Monday. After dinner at home, I dressed up deliberately, passed by the street, bought some fruit, and rode to Wu's house.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Wu's mother clearing the table, "Hello, aunt!"
When Wu Ma saw me at the door, she was slightly stunned and said, "Come in and sit down. Have you eaten? My second sister is in the kitchen."
"Eat, Auntie." I replied and walked into the hall.
Wu Ma then rushed to the kitchen and said, "Second sister, Qian Cheng is here."
"Oh." Wu Qing came out in response, saw me, and asked shyly, "Here you are, have you eaten? Sit down, I'll get some water."
"Eat." I replied, picked up the fruit and put it on the table.
I pulled up a stool and sat down, greeting Father Wu at the dining table, "Hello, uncle."
Wu Qing helped her mother clear the table and poured a glass of boiled water for her father and me.
Looking at the fruits on the table, "You're welcome! I even bought some fruits."
I blushed slightly and said, "I don't know what I like to eat? I just bought it."
Wu Qing picked up the bag and said with a smile, "Peach is my mother's favorite."
The family was polite and took the initiative to chat about home affairs, but I still seemed extremely uncomfortable. After sitting for almost an hour, I stood up and said, "It's getting late, uncle, aunt, I'm going back."
Father Wu was polite, "I won't sit here for a while." Father Wu said.
"No, you guys have to take a rest and come back next time."
Wu Ma said, "Come when you have time!"
Wu Qing said nothing and smiled at me, indicating that she accepted or acquiesced.
I went there once and two or three times, and it became more and more natural for me. Before I knew it, I couldn’t remember how many times I went there. Every time I went there, I was never empty-handed. I either bought some fruits or bought some pork, and made dumplings together. It seemed like I had integrated into the Wu family.
