"There will be opportunities in the future." Xu Manman remembers that in the mid-1980s, after the ID card came out, the letter of introduction system was gradually abolished, and at that time there were not so many restrictions on everyone's travel.
At this time, the man and woman who had walked away also returned. Chen Ming looked at his two sisters squatting under the shade of the tree and felt a little funny in his heart, "Manman, Wenhua, are you hungry? Let's go eat."
Xu Manman and Zhang Wenhua looked at the popsicles they had just finished eating and wanted to say that they were not hungry. However, the two people opposite them had been walking for the whole morning and probably had almost used up the food in their stomachs. Unlike them, they bought snacks as soon as they arrived and sat down to eat without moving at all.
In the end, the three of them went to eat at Lao Mo, thanks to the sponsorship of my aunt. My cousin's wallet is very fat now, so most of the time they eat out when they are on a date, and only occasionally cook at home. However, with the guidance of two locals, they also tasted a lot of authentic Beijing delicacies.
Today is the weekend and Lao Mo's is very crowded. When the four of us arrived, it was dinner time and we had to wait for half an hour before we got a seat.
Xu Manman had just finished placing her order and handed the menu back to the waiter when she heard a familiar voice behind her.
"Oh, youngest, it's really you." Just by hearing the name, Xu Manman knew who it was.
Xu Manman turned her head to look at Yang Yang who was approaching, thinking that this fate was really wonderful. She met her here last time when she was having dinner, and again today.
Obviously, Yang Yang also thought it was a coincidence. "I was thinking of visiting your house later, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Yeah, have you finished eating?" Xu Manman nodded and greeted the junior schoolmate behind her.
"Yeah, I was just about to leave when I saw you." Yang Yang only then noticed the girl sitting across from the brother and sister. "Who is this?"
"This is my eldest cousin's girlfriend, Sister Wenjun, and that is her sister, Zhang Wenhua." Since the relationship has been confirmed and has been made clear to both sides' parents, Xu Manman no longer feels there is any need to hide it.
Yang Yang's gaze shifted between Zhang Wenjun and Chen Ming, his face filled with the excitement of having just found something new. "Oh, well...we won't bother you anymore, Manman. We'll talk about this when we get back to school."
After saying goodbye to Xu Manman, Yang Yang left, looking back every few steps, and kept hinting to Xu Manman with his eyes before leaving.
Zhang Wenjun also saw the look in the eyes of her boyfriend's cousin's classmates, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
It was Zhang Wenhua who finally said, "Your classmate is really lively."
"She's always like this, but she's a nice person." She is straightforward and says whatever she wants. Her thoughts can be seen at a glance on her face.
Zhang Wenjun, on the other hand, was still immersed in the shock of being introduced as Chen Ming's girlfriend in person. She was very quiet during the entire meal. However, when Chen Ming peeled a shrimp and handed it to her, although she was a little embarrassed, she still ate it sweetly.
The interaction between the two made Xu Manman feel a little uncomfortable in her stomach. She hadn't even taken a few bites of the main course before she was filled with dog food. Looking at Zhang Wenhua sitting opposite her, he had the same expression as her. Fortunately, she was not the only one feeling uncomfortable.
The next day when they returned to school, Yang Yang came over and asked her, "Youngest, your cousin...his girlfriend, when did it happen?"
"Only a month or so."
"How do they know each other? Is that girl from our school? Is she a classmate of his?"
It was Wang Zhen who came to her rescue, "Oh, Lao Wu, you asked so many questions at once, how can Lao Liu answer you?"
He reached out and pushed Xu Manman to sit down in the seat, "Come, talk slowly, first tell me how they knew each other." Wang Zhen's face also had a look of interest.
"I, um...an old friend introduced her to me. Sister Wenjun is not from our school. She studies medicine at xx University." She also answered all the questions Yang Yang had asked before.
Wang Zhen was a little puzzled. "There were so many girls in our dormitory before, but your cousin didn't see any of them. How come he agreed this time after the elders introduced him to her?"
Yang Yang was also a little curious about this question. To be honest, she was attracted by Chen Ming's character at first, but he was her roommate's brother and obviously had nothing special to do with her. Yang Yang later gave up the idea. After the pen pal incident, she no longer thought about it in that direction.
"This... I don't know what my eldest cousin thinks, but Sister Wenjun is really good. She is beautiful, gentle, and generous and kind to others."
