"How long can you stay this time?" Old Tan looked at Gu Mingjing and asked.

"About a week." Gu Mingjing didn't look up and concentrated on eating.

Ah, the braised pork is delicious, the Kung Pao chicken is delicious, and the Beijing-style shredded pork is also good. Gu Mingjing, who had been eating boxed lunches on the train for a few days, couldn't stop eating delicious meals again.

Old Tan poured a glass of wine for each of the three people, then asked curiously, "You always refused to go on blind dates before, why did you change your mind this time?"

"The past is the past, and the present is the present. How can they be the same? Besides, this time my old man has given me an order. If I don't agree, he might kick me out of the house. How can I not agree?" Gu Mingjing was still being stubborn.

After hearing this, Old Tan thought to himself, if you really don't agree, even if the king comes, it will be useless. When has your father ever forced you to do something you didn't want to do?

However, Old Tan was considerate enough not to say what was in his mind, so as to avoid making Gu Mingjing angry and embarrassed.

It seems like it's time to prepare the gift money. The wedding banquet might be coming soon. Old Tan thought silently in his mind.

"Brother Gu, you clearly used to... wuwu." Before Ding Ming could finish his words, Old Tan covered his mouth.

Gu Mingjing raised his eyebrows, looked at Ding Ming with a half-smile and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Ding Ming quickly reacted after receiving Old Tan's signal. Oh no, Brother Gu holds a grudge. If he embarrasses me, I'll be in big trouble. It's been so long since we last met, how could he even forget about this? He can't control his mouth.

He motioned for Lao Tan to let him go, and then said flatteringly: "I mean, you used to like the wine brewed by Lao Tan. Drink more today, drink more."

"Yeah?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Ding Ming said with a smile.

Seeing Ding Ming smooth things over, Old Tan quickly changed the subject and asked, "Who's your blind date? Why did your dad suddenly ask you to go on a blind date?"

"Yeah, why did Uncle Gu suddenly think of this?" Ding Ming also quickly joined in.

Seeing that Ding Ming was sensible, Gu Mingjing stopped staring at him, took a sip of wine and said, "She's the daughter of my dad's good brother, you should know."

"Uncle Gu's good brother's daughter? I know?" Ding Ming began to recall in his mind.

Gu Zhan has so many comrades and brothers, and Ding Ming doesn't know all of them. Among them, there are probably not many who have daughters and Gu Zhan can arrange blind dates for them.

Suddenly, Ding Ming's eyes lit up and he said, "Could it be your Uncle Jian's daughter, the one you almost had a child marriage with?"

He had some knowledge that Gu Zhan had always wanted to arrange a marriage between Gu Mingjing and Jianshu, so she was probably the only one who could ask Gu Zhan to arrange a blind date.

"Yes, it's her." Gu Mingjing said.

"Brother Gu, you two are really destined to be together. Although your childhood engagement didn't work out, so many years have passed, and after all, she's still the one for you." Ding Ming sighed.

Gu Mingjing didn't say anything. Fate? That was clearly his father's plan for many years. But seriously, it was also fate. After all, neither of them had been dating for many years, which led to today's blind date.

"What's the story behind child marriage?" Old Tan asked curiously.

Gu Mingjing remained silent. Ding Ming, his younger brother, told Old Tan about Gu Mingjing's past. "Let me tell you, back then..."

Gu Mingjing did not stop him. After all, they were going to have a blind date. The fact that he and Jianshu almost had a child marriage would definitely be remembered by people who knew about it. Those who should know would eventually know.

"When will you go on a blind date?" asked Old Tan after listening to the popular science lecture.

"The time hasn't been decided yet. I'm going to visit Uncle Zhao and the others tomorrow," said Gu Mingjing.

"If it works out, don't forget to bring your sister-in-law to meet us. I'll make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall for you then." Old Tan said.

"Brother Gu and I, I also want to meet my sister-in-law."

Gu Mingjing was a little amused, "We haven't even started dating yet, and you're already calling your brothers and sisters-in-law."

"It will definitely work." Old Tan laughed.

At least there was definitely no problem with Gu Mingjing. If he hadn't been a little interested in the girl, would he have agreed to the blind date? After so many years of friendship, didn't he understand him?

"Yes, yes, Brother Gu, you will definitely be able to bring my sister-in-law to see us. We will have Buddha Jumps Over the Wall." Ding Ming on the side laughed foolishly.

"Go eat your meal. After all this time, I went on a blind date just to get you to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall." Gu Mingjing laughed out of anger after hearing what Ding Ming said, and slapped him on the back of the head.

"No, the main reason is definitely to have a sister-in-law. Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is just a by-product." Ding Ming said with some grievance.

Is he that kind of person? Of course, Brother Gu's happiness is the most important thing. As for Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, that's just by the way. It took a lot of effort for Old Tan to agree.

Gu Mingjing continued to argue with him. As for the sister-in-law thing, let it go. If it worked out, he would definitely bring Jianshu to meet them. After all, they were all in Beijing and could look after each other. If it didn't work out, it would be useless to talk more now.

The three of them hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about. They ate, drank, laughed and chatted, and the meal lasted for three hours.

After returning home, Gu Mingjing called Zhao Mingze and arranged a time for the visit tomorrow.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Mingjing began to look for clothes to wear tomorrow from the luggage he brought.

The next morning, Gu Mingjing dressed neatly and rode the bicycle he borrowed from Lao Tan to the military compound.
