Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Blind Date

The next day, Ye Lan decided to give it a try first.

Blind dates are not something that can be successful in one go, and it is impossible for Ye Hongjun and his wife to take leave from work and stay with the girl all the time.

So the next morning, Ye Hongjun asked Ye Weiguo to go to the middle school next door from the machinery factory primary school to ask for leave for his brother Ye Baoguo, so that Ye Baoguo and Ye Yu could accompany Ye Lan to the blind date.

In the eyes of Ye Hongjun and his wife, no matter how powerful Ye Yu is, she is still a woman, and Ye Baoguo is more suitable to be the guardian, even though he is only fifteen years old.

Ye Baoguo said “hmm”.

Ye Weiguo also wanted to go, and excitedly volunteered: "I'll go too. If anyone dares to bully my second sister, I'll beat them up."

Rejected.

He was also given a joint lecture.

Ye Weiguo looked at Ye Yu, but Ye Yu did not interfere with Ye's parents' education as he wished. She really didn't think that Ye Weiguo's starting point was wrong, but Ye Weiguo was young and weak, and the weak had no right to provoke a strong enemy. It would be more beneficial for Ye's parents to teach him at this time to understand this society.

In a word:

"Nice fight."

"When you can beat me, then you can swear nonsense again! It's really easy to get beaten if you go out now."

Hint: This sentence is the abyss.

"!!!" But the fool Ye Weiguo fell down without hesitation, clenched his fists, and encouraged himself, "Third sister, just wait, I will definitely beat you."

"oh."

After breakfast, Ye Lan washed her face with soap, went back to her room, changed into a white shirt and blue overalls, and put on a blue work jacket. The old pants were washed to a pale color but very clean, and she braided her hair using the new method she had learned.

As she walked out of the room, she asked nervously, "What do you think of my outfit?"

Ye Yu gave up on all the exaggerated words like "beautiful as a fairy, beautiful as a fairy" and looked her up and down carefully, giving her a thumbs up: "She looks really good, and looks really energetic."

Ye Baoguo nodded and repeated like a repeater: "Looks good, looks energetic."

Ye Lan heaved a sigh of relief, pursed her lips and smiled, looking somewhat dignified and gentle.

When Ye Hongjun went out today, he left behind the only watch in the house, which had been used for many years and was still in perfect condition and looked new. Ye Yu looked at the time.

Xiao Sha waved his hand: "Let's go!"

After all, Yanjing City is the capital, so there were actually a lot of new things and many blind date locations in the past.

There is the legendary luxurious Sufeng Friendship Hotel, which is very expensive and only visited by the children of cadres. Now the hotel has not been demolished, but basically no one dares to go there. There are overseas Chinese shops, which have been closed. There are nationally famous attractions such as the Great Wall, Tiantan, and Yeguo Top University, but now many places here are not accessible due to chaos.

Now the only dating places left are state-owned hotels, cinemas, and parks.

For quick blind dates like Ye Lan's, which are like driving rounds, the venue is basically set in the park.

There is more than one park in Yanjing City. Most of them were built in feudal society and partially opened to the public free of charge after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The ancient city walls, magnificent buildings and beautiful scenery together bear witness to the historical changes of this city.

There are many people going on blind dates during this period, and there are many men and women dressed up every day. Ye Lan and her friends chose to meet in a park that has a beautiful maple forest in this season and is not remote. This is also the place with the most people coming and going.

As soon as the three siblings approached this place, they attracted a lot of people's attention.

Let’s start with Ye Baoguo, who is almost sixteen years old. The baby fat on his face is a little obvious, and he has not yet lost his boyish immaturity. He still receives a lot of stares from young girls. Maybe it’s because they are at a blind date venue, and a lot of the stares are legitimate.

This made Ye Baoguo blush, and he moved his hands and feet. He was very nervous but wanted to show himself well. His back was always very straight. It was rare to see him in such a high spirit at home on weekdays.

Ye Lan and Ye Yu attracted more attention.

The former has long hair, is gentle and charming, and has an infectious smile; the latter has short hair, is bright and confident, and has a casual and natural temperament. The beauty of the two gives people different impressions. Only by carefully comparing their facial features can we find that the sisters' eyes and chins are similar.

People all yearn for beauty. Before they know it, everyone would hope that the person they are going on a blind date with is good-looking. Considering the looks of Ye Yu and her two siblings, the fact that the two sisters have an unfamiliar air and they walk together, it is not surprising that they attract so many eyes.

Ye Lan also started to get nervous and held onto Ye Yu's arm, but because Ye Yu's mood was always stable, peaceful and natural, she was gradually infected by his mood and calmed down.

Narrowing down the agreed address range, using the pen hanging from his chest pocket as a mark, and considering his disabled right hand, Ye Yu quickly locked eyes and gently elbowed Ye Lan.

Ye Lan walked towards the lucky guy, who also received a lot of envious looks.

The first lucky person today is named Fang Qiang, a young man with ordinary looks and an introverted personality. He is not very good at speaking and blushes easily. He was frank when talking about his hand disease, but he revealed some inferiority complex that he was not even aware of.

Ye Yu initially judged that this person's character was okay. Seeing that Ye Lan had taken the initiative, he left with Ye Baoguo and handed the space to them.

Of course, leaving meant that the maple forest ended not far away, and Ye Lan had not completely left her sight.

In fact, at this distance, if Ye Yu wanted to listen, her hearing could barely clear the noise and vaguely hear the conversation between Ye Lan and the others, but she didn't care.

While waiting, someone actually approached Ye Yu to talk to him. No one knew where he came from, but Ye Yu refused him without even looking at him.

The first blind date didn’t take long, from self-introduction to end, it took less than an hour.

Ye Yu, Ye Baoguo and Ye Lan reunited, and Fang Qiang left. It could be seen that he was a little reluctant and looked back several times.

Ye Yu asked: "How?"

"He's a nice person." Ye Lan's words were like giving out a nice guy card. He was a nice person, but she didn't like him.

The result is not difficult to guess.

From the appearance, the two are not a good match. Fang Qiang is average looking, and his hand disease and deformity will affect his daily work and life. Fang Qiang's family background is not very strong either. He comes from an ordinary working-class family. His mother is his stepmother and has been separated from his parents. He now lives in a tube-shaped building assigned to him by the factory due to a work-related injury.

Ye Lan was not very satisfied with Fang Qiang, but Fang Qiang was quite satisfied with her and said that he would wait for her for a week. This touched Ye Lan a little. Realistically speaking, at least she had an alternative partner, but this little touch was not enough to offset those shortcomings.

Elm leaves:

"Next one."

Ye Lan is busy getting herself married, so there must be more than one blind date today.

The next two experiences were even worse, so much so that Ye Yu didn't even pull Ye Zhongguo away, and acted like a third wheel the whole time without any tact.

Both of them have bad character.

One of them was looking around as soon as he arrived. Even after Ye Lan introduced herself, his eyes would occasionally fall on Ye Yu while looking at Ye Lan, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

This point alone made Ye Yu end the blind date in less than five minutes.

The man was not convinced? He thought that the three siblings were mostly girls and young, so Ye Yu sent them flying seven or eight steps away. He was so scared that he almost peed himself, and then he ran away.

Ye Yu cursed: "What a horrible thing."

Ye Lan, Ye Baoguo: "..."

Ye Baoguo thought Ye Yu was being rude, but he didn't dare to say anything to Ye Yu. Ye Lan thought both her sister and brother were right, but they didn't have time to stop it.

Another man was married for the second time. His ex-wife died of illness, leaving behind two daughters. He kept saying that his daughters were not valued by him and that the sons his wife would give birth to in the future would definitely inherit his job, house and money. You could tell how unlucky his daughters were.

This person is not completely without faults. Because he was attracted by Ye Lan's appearance, he spoke very nice compliments to her. It can be seen that he is a lively person, which makes him even more terrifying.

Ye Yu: "Next one."

The fourth man was also the last one this morning. He was quite eye-catching as soon as he appeared.

This man has one of the most popular male looks nowadays, with a handsome face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a slightly dark complexion, which matches the tough aura he exudes very well.

The man's name is Zhao Qinggang. He is much older than Ye Xing. He is 29 years old this year, 10 years older than Ye Xing. He has a mother, a married sister and an unmarried sister (? ).

The main reason why he was still unmarried at the age of 28 was that he was a soldier and had been on a long-term mission.

He has not retired yet and is serving as battalion commander.

The normal retirement age for a battalion commander is 40, and he has no plans to retire. He hopes to make further progress before retirement. The army once introduced him to a girl, and they were together for two months before breaking up due to personality differences.

Zhao Qinggang was even more anxious about the blind date than Ye Xing, because he only had seven days of vacation and his mother wanted him to submit the marriage report application form within seven days, and today was the second day.

Because of the time constraints, Zhao Qing was very straightforward and honest in his initial self-introduction, especially after Ye Lan introduced herself.

Ye Yu initially judged that there should be no problem with his character, so she pulled Ye Baoguo away for the second time and refused to act like a third wheel.

After the blind date, Ye Lan blushed and whispered that it was noon now and Zhao Qinggang invited the three siblings to have lunch, and she agreed.

This also shows that the first impression of both parties is good.

There was food, and Ye Yu was even better, so the four of them went to the state-owned hotel closest to the park.

In this era, working as a waiter in a state-owned hotel is a stable job. No matter what their service attitude is, they will not lose their job, and their salary will not be reduced. This leads to most waiters having the attitude of "serving different people differently" written on their faces at all times.

He refused to take orders, was only reluctant to present the menu, rolled his eyes from time to time, and even bluntly despised the customers for being poor and jealous.

No wonder it has a bad reputation in historical records, but those who spend money and tickets to eat there are all impolite.

Fortunately, the hotel's chef is a very skilled cook. They ordered several dishes from the state-owned hotel. Today's meat dishes are pig's feet stewed with soybeans and sugar-crusted spareribs.

The pig's feet are stewed until they are so soft that the meat comes off as soon as you bite it. The meat is so fragrant, the soup is also fragrant, the soybeans are fragrant, and the meat bones are also fragrant; the sweet and sour spare ribs are just the right amount of sweet and sour, fragrant and crispy.

While others were chewing on the bones, Ye Yu was chewing on them as if they were biscuits, making them crunchy and hard.

Not to mention Ye Lan and Ye Baoguo, even Zhao Qinggang looked at her with surprise, and the guests at the next table were stunned, okay? This girl not only has an amazing appetite, but also an amazing tooth.
