[Chapter 2] Forced to go on a date
She buried her head and walked home, walking slowly along the way. She felt annoyed when she thought about how her aunt would look at her when she got home.
Auntie is Wang Xiaohua’s stepmother and has been married to her father for more than 20 years. She no longer remembers her biological mother at all. She heard from her father that her mother died in a car accident. Later, her aunt fled to Chongqing with her daughter, and her father kindly adopted her.
After leaving them, the aunt married her father in order to have a Chongqing household registration and a place to settle down.
The aunt's surname is Xie. She is a smart and capable woman. She is completely different from her father who is honest, kind and careless. She is calculating, quarrelsome and violent, and makes Xiaohua's father obedient. As a stepmother, she is not good to Wang Xiaohua.
Not bad. She has never been beaten or scolded deliberately since she was a child, but she will not get the slightest benefit. As for the fact that Xiaohua refuses to call her mother and calls her aunt, she is very open-minded and doesn't care at all.
Wang Xiaohua is twenty-six years old this year. She is indeed not young anymore. Her aunt originally ignored her marriage. But six months ago, she heard that the house they lived in might be demolished, and each family would be allocated a large amount of demolition money.
There were two good houses in the new district. In order to prevent Wang Xiaohua from getting the money and house, which would affect the interests of her two children, she began to diligently arrange for them.
Although she dislikes these things, for the sake of family harmony and for her father not to be nagged, Wang Xiaohua has no choice but to go on blind dates every time - who told her that she was twenty-six and had no boyfriend and could not get married, and who told her father
I have been an ordinary worker all my life, but my aunt has been despised and incompetent my whole life.
The ten-minute journey took Wang Xiaohua more than half an hour. When she reached the door of her house, she took the key to open the door. Unexpectedly, the key could not be inserted into the keyhole. She had to knock on the door. After a long time, her aunt opened the door.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she walked out and when she saw it was Wang Xiaohua, she said angrily: "I had nothing to do in the afternoon, so I just slept for a while. I didn't expect to sleep too much."
Wang Xiaohua walked in with her head lowered and asked her aunt: "My key can't open the door. Do you want to change the lock?"
"Yes." Auntie answered her casually.
"Hao Duanduan, why did you change the lock?" When Wang Xiaohua asked, Auntie seemed to have remembered something. Her eyes immediately widened and she became energetic. She dragged Wang Xiaohua to the sofa and sat down. Just at this moment, Wang Xiaohua
Wang Laoshi, my father, also walked out of the room. His hair was a little disheveled, obviously because he had to work the night shift and went to bed in the afternoon.
"Xiaohua is back." Wang Laoshi is as honest as his name suggests.
"Yes." Wang Xiaohua nodded.
"Don't interrupt," the aunt glared at Wang Laoshi with dissatisfaction, and said to Xiaohua: "The reason why I changed the lock is because your third aunt said that the person you had a blind date with today is very good, he is a civil servant. Anyway, sooner or later you will
You are about to get married, and if your married daughter throws water away, this home will no longer be your home, and I should change the locks, right?"
Wang Xiaohua was speechless for a moment, because her father's face made her angry.
Seeing her unhappy expression, the aunt was no longer happy either. She turned to Wang Laoshi and asked Wang Laoshi: "Do you think what I said is right?"
"Uh...that's right, but Xiaohua is always our daughter, and this is her home." Wang Laoshi answered cautiously.
"What you say sounds nice, but I don't want to think about how our lives have been over the years. A family of five squeezed into three rooms. Now that Axiu and Mingwei have grown up, they both have their own rooms. Just rely on
With your dead wages of two to three thousand a month, the whole family has long since starved to death. Who is to blame for this? It should also be your incompetence..." Auntie began to scold Dad like a monk chanting sutras.
Dad didn't dare to reply a word, he looked guilty, and Wang Xiaohua's face didn't look good either.
After scolding her for a long time, the aunt remembered Xiaohua's blind date and asked her, "Did everything go well today?"
"It's okay." Wang Xiaohua answered with much reluctance.
"Xiaohua, it's not that Auntie is talking about you. You are not young anymore. You are already twenty-six or seventeen years old. Your education is not high. You just graduated from a technical secondary school. You are not as good-looking as Axiu. What qualifications do you have to pick and choose?"
It would be good to find someone similar to marry her, not to mention she is a civil servant..." The aunt's face turned ugly and she began to scold Wang Xiaohua.
For the sake of her father, Wang Xiaohua had no choice but to listen.
At this time, Xiaohua's cell phone buzzed with a text message. She opened it and saw an unfamiliar number. It read: "Comrade Wang Xiaohua, my name is Song Qingyang. Although I am a civil servant and work in a government department,
I am much better than you in every aspect, but you are not very good in every aspect, but I am willing to try to date you, otherwise I will not bear to break your heart. I have no other shortcomings, this is my only shortcoming.
I'm just too soft-hearted. I'll invite you to dinner tonight, and you can wait for me downstairs at my house." Song Qingyang's address is attached below.
Your sister is too soft-hearted!
Wang Xiaohua secretly cursed, but her aunt had already snatched the phone away. After looking at it, her face burst into smiles and she said to Wang Xiaohua: "Xiaohua, no one else despises you for giving you a chance. Why don't you go quickly?"
?Honestly, why don't you urge your daughter to meet someone? It's rare that someone doesn't dislike her."
When Wang Xiaohua heard this, she felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten ten flies. She looked at her father again and saw that he was in a difficult situation, so she had to stand up, like a hero who had sacrificed his life generously. He closed his eyes and said, "I'll just go. Give it to me tonight."
Leave the door open." After saying that, he walked out. After walking a few steps, Wang Laoshi stopped her and quietly handed her his key, which made Wang Xiaohua feel wet and touched.
Wang Xiaohua took a taxi and went to the downstairs of Song Qingyang's house according to the address given by Song Qingyang. After arriving, she sighed that there was a mountain as high as the mountain, and this was actually a run-down urban village. As a woman who claimed that her family was in good condition,
Wang Xiaohua really couldn't understand that Song Qingyang, who was a civil servant in a government department, lived in a dilapidated and dirty urban village.
She sent a text message to Song Qingyang and waited for her downstairs for more than 20 minutes before he came belatedly. He walked downstairs, coughed and said seriously: "Originally, I was supposed to take you to my house to sit, but you
The way I am dressed today is really rude to my parents, so let’s wait for another day. Let’s go to dinner.”
Wang Xiaohua lowered her head and looked at what she was wearing. She was wearing a plain plaid dress and a pair of flat white sneakers. It was indeed not formal enough, not to mention that the two of them had not developed to that extent.
She was indeed a little hungry, so she asked: "Where to eat?"
"Women should not talk too much about men." Song Qingyang said very chauvinistically and walked in front. Wang Xiaohua had no choice but to follow him. He said sternly: "Comrade Wang Xiaohua, why did you choose such a tacky name?"
What? Vulgar, you know? After we get married, you have to change my name to prevent me from being laughed at when I go out."
Wang Xiaohua lowered her head and kicked the pebbles, not bothering to pay attention to him. He talked about it all the way like the leader's speech, and took Wang Xiaohua to a restaurant two kilometers away.
For a whole two kilometers, the two people walked one behind the other. What was even more terrible was that Song Qingyang kept talking all the way, picking on Wang Xiaohua and making demands on her after they got married.
