0007 Urging Marriage
"Young Master, you're back!"
Lin Rong was overjoyed to see the tall, upright man step through the door and hurriedly greeted him with a smile.
"Aunt Lin." The kind and amiable middle-aged woman in front of her was their family's maid, but she had watched her grow up since she was a child, and in Tantai Qing's heart, she had long regarded her as part of the family.
Lin Rong stepped forward and hung up his suit jacket, then asked, "Have you eaten yet?"
Tantai Qing nodded and said she had already eaten, so she didn't need to cook anymore.
"Aunt Lin, where's my mom?" He asked, puzzled, not seeing his mother.
"Oh, Madam is watering the flowers in the garden. She probably doesn't know that you're back, young master..." She's good in every way, except she talks too much. As soon as she saw Tantai Qing, she couldn't stop talking.
Seeing that she was about to talk about it forever, Tantai Qing smiled gently and stopped her in time, "Aunt Lin, you go ahead with your work, I'm going to check on my mother."
Meanwhile, Dong Lijun was learning how to care for flowers and plants from the gardener when she saw her son coming over. She immediately put down the scissors in her hand.
"Taiqing, when did you get back? You didn't even send a message to tell your mother..." She quickly washed her hands, ordered the maid to serve tea, and then asked him to sit down.
Tantai Qing sat down opposite her, took a sip of her favorite flower tea, and frowned almost imperceptibly.
The flower tea was a bit too sweet for him, but his mother was a health enthusiast and spent her leisure time at home researching how to maintain her health. This flower tea was something she had spent time researching and developing herself.
"Didn't you tell me to come back?" he said helplessly, remembering that she had told him that day to find some time to go home, as she had something to discuss with him in person.
Dong Lijun also remembered the important matter, cleared her throat, and said with a smile, "Taiqing, it's like this, Mom has a friend's daughter, who is also single, and happens to be about your age..."
"How about we meet her? It's okay if it doesn't work out."
"..."
Tantai Qing hadn't expected that her calling him home was just to arrange a blind date for him. He raised an eyebrow helplessly and said, "Mom, I'm not in a hurry."
"You're not worried, but I'm worried for you!" Dong Lijun said anxiously, abandoning her usual elegance in front of others.
Thinking about how her other friends' sons and daughters all had grandchildren, while her own son, who was almost thirty, didn't even have a girlfriend, she became even more anxious.
Unwittingly recalling his previous relationship, she immediately warned him with a stern face: "Let me tell you, our Tan family will not allow you to marry an actress."
Tantai Qing frowned upon hearing this, finding her words somewhat unpleasant. However, the person in front of him was his own mother who had given birth to him, and he had always respected the elderly, so he couldn't afford to argue with her too much. He then said, "There is no distinction between high and low status in any job in this world."
Seeing that she was about to speak about herself again, he quickly added, "Please don't rush me, I know what I'm doing."
Dong Lijun was actually afraid of bothering him, and knowing that he had always been a sensible and sensible child, she stopped there, only saying that if he had any ideas one day, he must tell her.
"knew."
Later, she asked him if he had anyone he cared about. Tantai Qing was silent for a moment, and the image of the woman in the green dress appeared in his mind again. But when faced with her questioning, he still gave a vague answer.
"Have you visited your grandmother?"
Tantai Qing said he had been there.
The day I first met Jiang Jifan, he had just returned from sweeping his grandmother's grave. Every year on the anniversary of her death, his family would go to sweep her grave, but he happened to be away on a business trip and couldn't make it back. He could only make up for it later.
"Your grandmother is a very good person..." Seeing that she was about to bring up her marriage again, Tantai Qing became a little impatient, made an excuse to go see her grandfather, and then left the garden.
