Chapter 015 Official Blind Date
Wei Dai didn't expect this to be the reason.
Eye contact is a really strange thing.
Even though Wen Jia and I had only met a few times, let alone had a deep understanding of each other, at this moment, I had a vague thought that it would not be bad if Wen Jia was the blind date partner.
He knew clearly that this was not so-called love, and perhaps it did not reach the level of liking, but the heartbeat that came quietly could not be ignored.
Wei Dai suddenly became a little flustered.
He was worried that Wen Jia would think he was too abrupt and was just being attracted to her. He wanted to explain his vague "feeling" and "attraction" but didn't know how to start.
This feeling is terrible.
But when he saw the bright eyes of the person opposite him staring at him, the heart hidden in his chest began to beat faster and faster, and the impulse made him say stupid things again.
"How about, let's try a blind date." Wei Dai spoke very quickly, fearing that he would run out of courage to finish his sentence. "Maybe it will be a good match." After he finished speaking, the energy in his body seemed to drain away a little, and he could feel sweat on his temples.
Wen Jiajia was stunned on the spot. She didn't expect him to be so direct.
After a long while, she asked, "Why?"
In her previous life, she was almost a big internet celebrity, but she was never destined to be like Mary Sue, where a man would fall in love with her after just meeting her twice. In this life, she was reborn as a little orphan who had to struggle to survive with two children, and she actually had this kind of fate.
This is unscientific.
She couldn't figure it out, she really couldn't figure it out.
Wei Dai thought for a moment and said seriously, "I feel very comfortable talking to you."
It wasn't because of her face, although Wen Jia looked very beautiful to him.
"Maybe it's because you are educated." He analyzed his own psychology very sincerely.
He felt that Wen Jiajia was different just standing there, exuding the scholarly air that only cultured people have.
Wen Jiajia, who had spent a lot of money to find a master of etiquette to train for half a year in her previous life: "..."
Wen Jiajia took a deep breath, looked left and right, and waved to Wei Dai: "Come in and talk." She had to explain everything to him.
Wei Dai pushed the cart into the courtyard again.
The two girls who were dividing the candies were very surprised. Wen Xuan's eyes suddenly filled with tears and she tightly clenched the candies in her hands, fearing that the uncle who gave them the candies would go back on his word.
Wen Jiajia walked and said, "Chun'er, Xuanxuan, keep an eye on the door. Let aunt know if anyone comes."
Having said that, he took Wei Dai back to the main room.
Wen Chun and Wen Xuan were very happy. They jumped for joy and shouted, "I know, I know."
I'm not here to ask for the candy back!
In the main room.
"Please sit down." Wen Jiajia said.
She also sat down and cleared her throat: "I want to make it clear first why I refused blind dates. First, because I have no plans to get married at the moment. I haven't dealt with a big mess of my own yet, and entering into marriage with someone without emotional foundation will only make things worse. No matter who Auntie Tian introduced me to, I would have refused."
Wei Dai: "What about the second one?"
two……
Wen Jiajia put her hands in her pockets, looked at Wei Dai and said, "Second, I'm afraid that Auntie Tian is cheating me and using me as a favor. She said you are so outstanding, a platoon leader with a 23rd grade salary, and you can make more than 50 yuan a month. How can someone like you be interested in me if you don't have some serious problems?"
She was thinking at the time that what fell from the sky might not be a pie, but could very well be a trap.
Wei Dai chuckled twice: "I do have a problem."
Wen Jiajia's eyes widened instantly.
She just said, there is a trap!
Wei Dai followed Wen Jiajia's example and cleared his throat, then introduced himself formally: "Hello, Comrade Wen Jia, my name is Wei Dai. I am currently serving in Linhe City, Jiangxi Province. I am currently a platoon leader and receive a salary of 23rd grade, but I actually only receive 39 yuan."
"Why?"
"Because the rest of the money was distributed in the form of various coupons and supplies," Wei Dai explained, "such as cotton coupons, cloth coupons, oil coupons, industrial coupons, and welfare during the New Year holidays."
Wen Jiajia understood. She was quite puzzled at that time. If she really got 52, it would be too much.
Wei Dai added: "Of the 39 yuan, I need to take out 5 yuan every month to send to the orphans of my comrades, so my salary is actually... not that high."
"As for my family, I have an older brother, an older sister, and a younger sister. My older brother had polio and has sequelae. He can't walk well or run fast, and can only get 5 work points. He is married, built a house in the village, and now has a son. My parents often help him. And my sister..." Wei Dai paused, "My sister has been married three times. She has a child with her ex-husband and now lives in the next county. Her eldest daughter is currently being raised by my parents."
Wen Jiajia understood.
She said, how could it be her turn to get such a good deal?
Wen Jiajia was a little curious: "Three sections?"
Wei Dai nodded: "Yes. My eldest niece was born to her and his first partner. She is 12 years old this year."
Wen Jiajia's mouth twitched: "What about your younger sister?" It's impossible that my younger sister did that too.
Wei Daisong said, "My younger sister works at the animal husbandry station of our commune. She is a veterinarian and is married."
Wen Jiajia: "Who are you marrying?"
“…educated youth.”
Wen Jiajia was speechless. Marrying an educated youth was risky, like the original owner's second sister who was badly cheated.
After a few years, when they were able to return to the city, most of those who married educated youth would have conflicts. But it was hard to say, there were educated youth in the world who would not abandon their wives and children.
What if Wei Dai’s brother-in-law is this kind of person?
Wei Dai was silent for a moment, and then continued, "My parents are quite helpful and well-known for being good people. The money they lent out could fill up two account books."
Wen Jiajia: "Borrowing without returning?"
"That's not the case. About 70 to 80 percent of people will pay back, and the rest will wait for me to come back and urge them to pay. Now the accounts have been cleared, and I used part of the money I collected to buy a car, and part of it to pay the tuition for my two nephews and nieces for several years." Wei Dai said.
Wen Jiajia rubbed his forehead and said, "Your family sounds terrible, but it's not that terrible if you think about it carefully." Anyway, food and clothing are not a problem, otherwise you can't buy a bicycle.
The Wei family has actually solved the problem of food and clothing. The main contradiction is some of the ridiculous things that happened after they were well fed and well clothed.
But if someone thinks carefully, they will find that the Wei family's trap is not that big, and is similar to the others.
Other families keep their conflicts hidden at home, but the Wei family puts them out in the open.
After all, three of the four children in the Wei family have a fixed income. Even if Sister Wei doesn't have a job, she still has food and clothing, and a fixed monthly allowance. How difficult can it be?
Only her family! After eating this year's food, they will have to worry about the next year's food at this time next year.
Alas! In fact, she is the one who suffers the most.
She is suffering in the true sense!
Wei Dai: "...Thank you for your comfort."
He added: "Our family split up last year. My parents will live with my eldest brother. They are still getting work points now, 15 points a day. When they are over 60, I will need to pay five yuan a month to support them. The house my parents live in now belongs to me, and the bicycle belongs to my eldest brother."
Wen Jiajia thought that it would be better to have a house.
Hegou Township is along the river and will definitely develop in a few decades, and then river view houses will be the most valuable.
By that time, this generation will have gray hair and it will be of no use whether there is a river view or not.
Finally, Wei Dai said: "I have already stated my personal conditions. If you can accept them, let's try a blind date." He was a little nervous.
"Can you accept mine?" Wen Jiajia asked, "I can't abandon my two nieces."
Wei Dai quickly stated: "I am willing to raise him together with you. I swear."
Wen Jiajia: "When I say raising them, I don't mean bringing them up. I mean sending them to school. I will support them wherever they go. And wherever I go, they go too."
"Of course!"
Wen Jiajia frowned: "Even if we get together, and you go to the army, I can't follow you. I have to live here at home and won't go to Hegou Township." This is her territory. She has finally become familiar with the Fuyang Brigade, and she doesn't want to integrate into the new environment again.
Wei Dai: "I will apply as soon as possible. In fact, the army is already planning a family area, and it can be completed within a year at the earliest. If you can't accompany the army, you can live in Fuyang Brigade."
Wen Jiajia: "I don't have a job yet. I don't even like working in the fields. I can only get 5 work points, which is the limit. My family's situation is shaky and I am not lying to you. We can only live off our savings."
Wei Dai: "I will give you the wage vouchers and try my best to find you a job."
To be honest, Wen Jiajia was really tempted. In this era, military families have an absolute advantage in finding jobs.
She finally asked a question: "Marriage requires an emotional foundation. I can't go on a blind date with you today and get married with you tomorrow. If we are not suitable, can we stop getting involved?"
Wei Dai understood what she meant: "You mean we need to be together for a while?"
"Yes, to be precise, it means spending some time together and adjusting to each other." In fact, the correct process is to go on a blind date first. Only when you are attracted to each other can you continue to spend time together. Only when you are attracted to each other can you develop into a couple. This is the correct process.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that people become partners directly after a blind date in this era.
As for the relationship between men and women before they date, those who keep it a secret are getting along well, while those who keep it secret poorly are just being hooligan.
So Wen Jiajia simply put the two steps in the middle aside. If the time is right, they will continue to be together. If not, they will say goodbye. No one should delay anyone.
Wen Jiajia paused and said, "I heard that you came back specifically for blind dates and marriage, and you are very anxious."
Wei Dai felt quite guilty: "Don't worry, I have to apply for marriage." In fact, it was useless even if he was anxious. Wen Jiajia might not realize that she was not yet of legal age for marriage.
"So, Comrade Wen, are you willing to go on a blind date with me?"
The main room became quiet and Wen Jiajia was thinking.
The sunlight slowly filled the main room from the patio. The water in the water tanks on both sides of the patio sparkled and glittered in the sunlight.
Outside the house, the noises of the quarreling sisters Wen Chun and Wen Xuan could be heard from time to time. They seemed to be chasing sparrows and preventing them from pecking at the persimmon tree at the door.
After an unclear number of minutes, Wen Jiajia extended her hand with a smile on her face: "Hello, I'm Wen Jia, you can call me Jiajia."
Wei Dai raised the corners of his mouth and shook hands with her: "Hello Jia Jia, I am Wei Dai, you can call me Wei Dai."
