I send you
People feel happy when happy things happen, and good things come in pairs.
However, for Xiang Qinghao, she herself didn’t know whether it was a good thing or not.
Since I became a boss, my value is different from before, so more people come to me to introduce me to potential partners.
Half a year ago, someone introduced me to the son of the director of a timber mill, who also worked at the mill.
Xiang Qinghao had just opened the store and was not in the mood to think about these things, so he refused.
Three months ago, someone introduced Xiang Qinghao to a small grocery store owner. Xiang Qinghao also knew that person. The person liked to take advantage of small opportunities and would haggle over even a gold coin. Xiang Qinghao didn't like that, so she didn't go to see him.
Last month, someone came to introduce a newly graduated college student who was 8 years younger than Xiang Qing, but her family conditions were not as good.
He said that he has knowledge and cultural understanding, and will definitely be able to help Xiang Qing develop and expand the barbecue business in the future.
Xiang Qing had no objection to finding someone younger than herself, but she felt that the eight-year age difference was a bit too much.
Although she knew that in her original world, there were couples who were even worse off than this one, and their relationship was pretty good, she didn't want to, so she didn't agree.
Now, there is another chess friend of Xiang Weidong named Lao Zhao, who also knows Xiang Qinghao. He tells Xiang Weidong that there is a new researcher in their institute and he voluntarily applies to be transferred from the institute in the provincial capital.
He is now the director of the research institute. The young man has a postgraduate degree and is handsome. His father is also a researcher and his mother is in the tea business.
He has a good family background and is a nice person, so I want to introduce Xiang Qinghao to him.
Xiang Qing felt like she was listening to a fairy tale.
She believed what Lao Zhao said, but could such a man agree to be with her?
Although I don’t know why he came here from the provincial capital on his own initiative, his family is not here, so he usually doesn’t stay here for a long time.
The research institute was such a big name in that era. Not to mention in Fuyuan County, even in the provincial capital, the girls who wanted to see him would have to line up for two blocks.
What's more, she is good-looking and comes from a good family.
Old Zhao told Xiang Weidong about this last night. This morning when Xiang Qing was having breakfast, she heard Xiang Weidong talking to her eloquently.
He spoke as if he had seen that person before.
Xiang Qinghao listened while eating. After finishing breakfast, he nodded and went to the barbecue restaurant.
After becoming the boss, Xiang Qinghao’s daily job is to check whether various tasks are being carried out in an orderly manner.
Today is Sunday, so there will naturally be more people.
There was a strange table on the first floor at noon.
This man and woman don't seem to know each other, they must be on a blind date.
But after the man took the dishes, for some reason the woman left angrily without eating.
Not long after the girl left, the man wanted to leave too after taking a bite.
When each guest finished eating and left, Xiang Qinghao would check to see how much food was left on the table.
Especially the newly developed dishes on the first floor.
If there is little or no food left, it means it is delicious.
If there is too much left, Xiang Qinghao will taste the leftovers to see if there is something wrong with the dish.
If this dish is left over several times, it will not be put on the shelf again.
But today's guest is a bit strange.
There was a table full of fresh dishes, all served ready. The man took a bite and left before the grilled food on the iron plate was cooked.
If two people are walking together, it may be because something happened.
But they walked one after the other. The woman was very angry when she left, but the man wanted to leave after eating a bite. What was the reason?
And it can be seen that these two people are here for a blind date. What does it mean that they can't eat the food in their own restaurant when they come for a blind date?
Xiang Qinghao was looking at the table full of dishes, feeling unhappy.
"Check out." Lu Chaoyang said to the waiter.
The waiter just came up to calculate the price.
"Let me do it." Xiang Qinghao said to the waiter.
"Hello, comrade. I'm the owner of this barbecue restaurant. Could you tell me if there's anything wrong with the food here? We'll do our best to improve it. We grow the food ourselves, and I think the taste is fine. So, I'd like to know why you don't eat it."
Lu Chaoyang's eyes showed a hint of confusion when he saw Xiang Qing's questioning.
He had to leave in a hurry, so he paid the bill. Suddenly, the boss appeared and asked him if there was anything wrong with the dish. He took a bite and didn't feel anything.
"No problem, I had to leave in a hurry, so I paid the bill early."
This seemed like a guest who wasn't willing to tell the truth. Xiang Qinghao picked up a pair of sanitary chopsticks and picked up the chrysanthemum and beef ribs from the plate.
There is no problem, it tastes good, but why doesn’t he eat it? I asked him, but he didn’t say anything.
"I think the food in our restaurant is pretty good, but since you haven't picked up your chopsticks, you must still be dissatisfied with the taste, so I would like to ask for your opinion." When saying this, Xiang Qinghao took another look at the food on the table.
"You haven't eaten any of the food on this table, and we're embarrassed to ask you to pay, so we just wanted to ask for your opinion."
So that’s how it is. This time Lu Chaoyang understood.
"No problem. To be exact, I only took one bite and didn't notice anything. I already said I had something to do and needed to leave, so I had to pay. As for the free meal you mentioned, that's not necessary. I already ordered and ate. Just tell me how much it is in gold coins."
Xiang Qinghao looked at Lu Chaoyang's face carefully again.
He had delicate features and a handsome appearance, and didn't seem like a scoundrel or a liar, not to mention that he offered to pay the bill.
"So that's how it is. You have something urgent to do and need to leave, and I've wasted so much of your time. Again, you don't have to pay for this meal."
The current situation is a bit strange. The guests who come to eat have to pay, but the boss who comes to pay the bill does not want money.
Lu Chaoyang still wanted to persist with this boss, but he didn't have the time.
So, after a hurried nod and thank you, I left.
After Lu Chaoyang rushed back to the research institute, he ran to see the results of an experiment without even having time to change his clothes.
Fortunately, I made it in time. The experiment I did the day before yesterday got the results today at noon.
My eldest brother called the research institute yesterday.
She said there was a daughter of a high-ranking official in the provincial capital, two years younger than herself, who worked in a cultural troupe. After seeing Lu Chaoyang's photo, she was attracted by his appearance and took the initiative to meet him.
Moreover, when the girl came, the eldest brother didn't call to tell him. He only called to tell him when he thought the time was almost up.
So, he was busy picking people up early in the morning and then going to eat, but he didn't get to eat and almost missed the experimental results.
Fortunately, the results are out.
Lu Chaoyang looked at the results and decided that he should find a good piece of land and put it into practice.
Just as Lu Chaoyang was thinking about it, his elder brother called the office.
"Chaoyang, what are you thinking? Is there something wrong with your brain? Linlin is the daughter of a high-ranking official in the provincial capital. Would she agree to your first blind date by asking her to go to a barbecue restaurant?"
Ah, so that’s why you left without even eating.
"You should have taken the initiative to meet the girl first. I see you're so busy all day that you even forget to eat and sleep. So after a lot of persuasion, the girl finally came.
She came here on her own initiative, and you treated her to a barbecue. Aren't you taking her lightly? "
"Do you like barbecue, or you just didn't like it? You couldn't go to all the big restaurants, so you just went to a barbecue restaurant. You're not usually a stingy person, what's wrong with you today?"
Lu Chaoyang felt helpless listening to his elder brother scolding him endlessly.
"I haven't given it much thought. I've just been researching a fertilizer that improves vegetable yield and flavor. People say that not only is the meat at that restaurant delicious, but the vegetables are also better than other places. I saw it as an opportunity today, so I went."
Lu Chaoyang also felt that he was innocent.
After graduating from graduate school, he took the initiative to apply for a job at a research institute in Fuyuan County.
Because the geological features here are suitable for research and vegetable cultivation.
Given his family background, his family was against it when he first came here, but they couldn't help but like it.
So, without stopping, no one came here directly.
Since coming here, he has been introduced to many blind dates by both his family and people working nearby.
Today, 26-year-old Lu Chaoyang’s view on choosing a partner is no different from everyone else’s.
I don't worry about my personal problems, nor do I reject all opportunities in a cold manner.
If you have any introductions, go and take a look to see if you are destined to be together.
If there is no introduction, just concentrate on your work. At least doing research is what he likes.
This person was introduced to him by his elder brother, and he also came here in person, so naturally he couldn't neglect him.
The grilled vegetables at that barbecue restaurant are well-known. Lu Chaoyang has always wanted to go there, but he doesn't have the time.
Today I have the time and the opportunity to entertain that girl and taste the vegetarian dishes of Good Day, the best of both worlds.
Unexpectedly, the woman thought that she was the one who came to see him first, so he didn't take her seriously.
"You can't choose this time to eat, you can eat it at any time. That girl hasn't come back yet. I don't know where she found the phone number, but she called my research institute directly."
The eldest brother was also furious.
After Lu Chaoyang tried to comfort him for a while, his elder brother issued an ultimatum.
"Let me ask you this. You've met the girl, so how is it going? Do you have any intention of continuing the relationship? If you do, come back and apologize to her, or there might still be room for redemption. If not, forget it. I'll go apologize to her directly, and don't contact her."
This was a question that Lu Chaoyang needed to think about carefully, but Lu Chaoyang had no impression of that girl. At that time, he only thought about food.
"I don't have a good or bad impression of her. She left after just three sentences. Brother, don't worry about it. Just reply to her directly. This will save you trouble."
Lu Chaoyang felt that it was not a pity to lose this marriage.
"You're saving yourself the trouble, but how could your parents? They'd be worried if you didn't get married. They were already anxious about your marriage. Now that you've gone to Fuyuan County, they're even more anxious. So, you have no impression of that girl, right?"
"That indirectly shows that you have a good impression of the girl. I'll apologize to you first. Please find some time to come back and meet her again."
Lu Chaoyang got a headache after hearing this.
"No, I can't go back. You can just refuse directly."
"Whatever you want, I'll let you see me. I'm not forcing you to do it. If you don't come back, I'll have the station issue a notice to transfer you back. That's settled. Hang up."
After saying that, the eldest brother was about to hang up the phone.
Lu Chaoyang took the opportunity to add: "No need, just refuse directly, and you can't transfer me back."
Without waiting for his brother to say anything else, Lu Chaoyang hung up the phone first.
Lu Chaoyang rubbed his temples helplessly, feeling like he had spent the whole day in chaos.
Finally able to take a break, Lu Chaoyang went to the laboratory to continue his research and experiments.
In less than half an hour, Lao Zhao from the research institute arrived.
"Xiao Lu, are you doing an experiment?" Old Zhao asked Lu Chaoyang kindly.
Mr. Zhao is 57 years old this year. He has worked in the research institute all his life and is about to retire in a few years.
So, now I have a lot of free time, and I also like to introduce people to potential partners.
When Lu Chaoyang saw him coming, he knew it must be this.
"Yes, there is a project to be done."
"It's a good thing for young people to be busy with their careers, but they should also pay attention to their personal problems."
It’s so lively today. What a lively day! It feels like people all over the world are introducing blind dates to Lu Chaoyang.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhao. But my elder brother has already introduced me to a blind date." Lu Chaoyang wanted to politely reject Mr. Zhao in this way.
"Someone has already introduced it," Lao Zhao said unexpectedly, "How is it, did it work?" Lao Zhao added.
"No, we didn't even have time to say a few words when we met today before she left. My eldest brother asked me to see her again."
"Oh, that means it didn't work out. If you want to meet that person again, go ahead. But the girl I want to introduce to you is very good. Although she's not as educated as you, she's beautiful, about your age, and she owns a barbecue restaurant called Good Day BBQ, so she's very good."
Old Zhao's purpose is to strongly recommend Xiang Qinghao.
The owner of Good Day BBQ.
Lu Chaoyang thought of the person who spoke to him this morning.
You may not know this, but she is really beautiful, but Lu Chaoyang is not interested in either the daughter of the provincial capital or the owner of the barbecue restaurant.
"Thank you, Teacher Zhao. I think we should not meet for now. My eldest brother has already introduced me to someone, and we had dinner at Good Days BBQ today. The boss saw us too. This is not appropriate for the girl."
Lu Chaoyang thought that after saying this, Lao Zhao would no longer insist, but he didn't expect that Lao Zhao would become even more excited after hearing this.
"You two had dinner at the Good Day BBQ restaurant. You and that girl haven't gotten together yet, which proves that you and Xiang Qing are destined to be together."
"I told the girl's dad about this yesterday. You can meet her tomorrow."
"I see you're feeling a bit overwhelmed about blind dates. So, don't worry about it. Take some time tomorrow and we can go together. Don't feel embarrassed. You're both single, and everyone has the right to choose."
"Of course, the girl also has the right to choose. So no matter who you are looking at, it is a two-way choice."
After Lao Zhao finished speaking, he didn't allow Lu Chaoyang to answer, so he just left without giving Lu Chaoyang a chance to refuse.
When Xiang Qing returned home in the evening, she heard Xiang Weidong tell her that Lao Zhao would bring the director of the research institute to the store tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, the person I saw the next day was the man who came for a blind date with a woman yesterday.
"I heard that you met yesterday." This was the opening remark of Old Zhao when he arrived.
"Yes, this comrade came to my place for dinner yesterday, but unfortunately he didn't eat much." Xiang Qing responded generously to Lao Zhao, and she didn't feel embarrassed when she saw Lu Chaoyang.
"What happened yesterday is what happened yesterday. It's all in the past. And there's no possibility of further development from yesterday. Since you're meeting today, it proves that you're destined to meet today. So, let's just talk about today. You two are both young people, you should interact more."
It’s not certain whether what Lao Zhao said was wise or not, but no matter what, let’s put the matter behind us.
"Hello, comrade Xiang Qing." When Lu Chaoyang spoke to Xiang Qing, he was direct and generous, and did not feel uncomfortable because of what happened yesterday.
If the other party had this idea, he would not be so calm.
Xiang Qinghao also understood what Lu Chaoyang meant.
However, I don’t feel disgusted or annoyed. After all, things happened one after another and brought me here.
"Hello, Comrade Lu Chaoyang. I didn't expect to meet you again today." Xiang Qinghao replied gracefully.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that either." Lu Chaoyang smiled softly. "I've wanted to come here for a long time because we have a fertilizer project that aims to increase vegetable yields without sacrificing taste."
"I heard a long time ago that the vegetables in your store are better than those in other places, so I wanted to try them. I didn't expect it to be like this later."
Lu Chaoyang spoke in a generous manner, and Xiang Qinghao was not a petty person.
"You have time to savor it today. Don't worry, this is my shop. I can't leave."
After hearing this, Lu Chaoyang couldn't help but chuckle.
Xiang Qinghao knew the purpose of Lu Chaoyang's visit yesterday, so she generously took out all the vegetables in the store.
Lu Chaoyang tasted them one by one. Xiang Qinghao patiently introduced them one by one because he knew that Lu Chaoyang came here to eat to improve the quality of vegetables.
Originally, when Lu Chaoyang first came, he just wanted to explain to Lao Zhao, and by the way, try some of the dishes here and see the characteristics of the vegetables here.
Xiang Qinghao didn't know this person at all, and didn't expect the two of them to be together.
So he came for a blind date yesterday and came again today, and he didn't feel disgusted. Besides, what Lao Zhao said just now was very clear, they didn't succeed yesterday.
In particular, what he does is to improve the quality of vegetables.
So, after introducing one dish, another, before we knew it, it was already evening.
Neither of them realized how late it was after they finished talking.
It was late and the night was beautiful.
After all the dishes were introduced, Lu Chaoyang suddenly felt like he didn't want to leave, but he couldn't find a reason to stay.
The look he gave Qinghao also began to brighten.
Xiang Qing felt embarrassed to be stared at.
"It's late. If you still have questions, you can always come to me. What you are doing is meaningful, and I am always willing to cooperate. Let's all go home first."
Xiang Qinghao was about to leave after saying this.
"I'll take you there." Lu Chaoyang immediately followed up Xiang Qinghao's words.
Xiang Qing looked at Lu Chaoyang without surprise. They were all young men and women over 25 years old, so how could they be so immature?
There are only multiple-choice questions here, accept or reject.
Xiang Qing thought about it for a while, then said cheerfully, "Okay."
I don’t have to walk alone tonight. It would be a good choice to have someone like this to accompany me on the road ahead.
So, the two of them continued walking in this deep night.
As for the person introduced by Lu Chaoyang's elder brother, Lu Chaoyang couldn't wait to call his elder brother's research institute early the next morning to tell him.
There was no need to see that girl anymore because he had already found the girl he liked the most, her name was Xiang Qinghao.
