Chapter 191 Zhao Meili's blind date

Shen Qingyang heard from Shen Jiale that Gu Siyuan had a girlfriend, and said that if he couldn't bear to leave her, he could bring her along.

Gu Siyuan shook his head: "Bao'er is young and simple-minded. She is the apple of my eye. When I arrive in Hong Kong, I have to study and work. I'm afraid I won't have much time to take care of her." "

Don't worry about that. There are servants at home." Gu Siyuan still felt it was inappropriate. Shen Jiale asked him to go and talk to Song Bao'er and not to hurt the little girl's feelings. Song Bao'er was tutoring Song Tianci at home and was very happy to see Gu Siyuan. "Why are you here?" They usually meet on weekends. Song Tianci left with a book in his arms to make room for the two. Gu Siyuan took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to Song Baoer. Song Baoer opened it and found a pair of finely crafted gold bracelets inside. "This is the dowry my grandmother prepared for my mother, but my mother didn't use it." Song Baoer asked puzzledly: "Since it is my aunt's dowry, you should keep it well, why give it to me?" Gu Siyuan bowed his head and said nothing. Song Baoer thought he was missing his mother and poured him a glass of water. After a long while, Gu Siyuan said, "I am leaving. The place I am going is far away, so I won't be able to visit you often in the future. Time is tight, and I have nothing else to prepare. If you are willing to wait for me, this will be my betrothal gift. This is my most precious thing. If you meet someone you like during this period, just return my mother's bracelet to me." Song Baoer hid the bracelet behind her: "I won't return it to you." Gu Siyuan smiled and touched Song Baoer's head: "If you accept my things, you are mine. When you get there, I will write to you." Song Baoer hesitated for a moment, mustered up her courage, and hugged Gu Siyuan's waist. Gu Siyuan also hugged his beloved girl tightly. "When are you leaving? I'll see you off." "We're leaving tomorrow morning. You still have to go to work. Don't go see you off." ... When Shen Qingyang and Gu Siyuan left, the Shen family, Lu Mingfeng, and Song Baoer all came to see them off. Parting is always sad. After living together for so many years, the Shen and Lu families had already regarded Gu Siyuan as a member of the family. They were reluctant to see him leave suddenly. Shen Qingshan found a car to take the two to the airport and told his brother: "Siyuan is a good child. You have to treat him well." Shen Qingyang agreed obediently. ... There was a store selling maltose on the street, and Shen Jiale agreed to buy some for the children. When they arrived at the store, they saw acquaintances. It was Zhao Meili and her mother, and there was a middle-aged man next to them. Zhao Meili was a little embarrassed when she saw Shen Jiale. Zhao Meili's mother came over to greet Shen Jiale. "It's Jiale, you are the same age as Meili, how come you haven't changed at all?" Shen Jiale said, "What a coincidence, Auntie, you are here to buy candy too?" Zhao's mother wanted to pull Shen Jiale aside to talk, but Zhao Meili stopped her, "Mom, Jiale is busy, don't bother her." Zhao's mother winked at her daughter and said, "It's okay, Jiale and I are old acquaintances, we have a lot to talk about, you buy first. things." Shen Jiale saw that Zhao's mother didn't look very good, and asked: "Auntie, how are you recently?" Zhao's mother pulled Shen Jiale out of the store and said: "My body is still the same, and I can't live without medicine. Jiale, Auntie asks you a favor. Meili wants to start a new life. Don't tell others that she was married." Shen Jiale glanced at Zhao Meili inside. Zhao Meili also happened to look over, with a complicated look in her eyes. Shen Jiale said: "I don't care about other people's business." With Shen Jiale's words, Zhao's mother was relieved, and she went into the store and nodded to Zhao Meili. The man next to her bought some candies and handed them to Zhao Meili, asking, "Is that your friend? She doesn't look very old." Zhao Meili said, "We used to live in the same family compound, and she is about my age." The man said, "She probably hasn't been to the countryside and suffered, so she looks young." Zhao Meili didn't answer. After buying the things and going out, Zhao Meili said she still had to prepare for tomorrow's class. The man was very satisfied with Zhao Meili and made an appointment to see her next time. Shen Jiale bought some candies and went out to ride his bike back home. Zhao Meili walked up to her and said, "Jia Le, thank you." Shen Jiale stopped and said, "I didn't do anything, there's no need to thank me." "You didn't expose me in front of him, so you helped me." Shen Jiale asked, "Have you divorced Teacher Fang?" "We haven't got a marriage certificate." "So, you do nothing and start a new family in Beijing, while Teacher Fang waits for you in your hometown with the children?" "Jia Le, I don't want to do this, but my mother wants me to do this, and I have no choice." Shen Jiale just looked at Zhao Meili quietly without saying a word. Zhao Meili continued, "My father passed away, my mother is in poor health, and my brother has no future. My mother can only rely on me now, but I have no ability to change the status quo." Shen Jiale smiled and said, "You don't have to explain to me, just think about how to explain to Teacher Fang. It is your decision to change the status quo through marriage, and there is no need to put the responsibility on your aunt." Zhao Meili lowered her head guiltily. Shen Jiale didn't want to say anything more to Zhao Meili, and pushed the bicycle to leave. But the bicycle was grabbed by Zhao Meili. Shen Jiale frowned unhappily: "Do you have anything else to do?"

"Can you call home and tell Chuanshui to find another one."

Shen Jiale laughed: "You are really easygoing. You have already done everything, but you dare not face it. That man looks older than you, so he should be married, right?"

"Well, his wife passed away last year, leaving behind two children."

"In other words, you abandon your own children and take care of other people's children."

"He is the director of the factory. He can arrange a job for my brother and find a famous doctor for my mother."

Shen Jiale didn't want to say more: "Just think it through."

"Then can you help me make a phone call back?"

Shen Jiale simply refused: "I can't help. I can't tell a child that his mother doesn't want him anymore."

...

After returning home, Shen Jiale distributed the maltose to the children and told Lu Mingfeng about Zhao Meili.

Lu Mingfeng said: "Zhao Meili has always been very purposeful. I don't think it's strange that she did this. I expected it."

Shen Jiale asked about buying a car.

Lu Mingfeng said that the car could be picked up the day after tomorrow.

"Wife, Siyuan is gone. If I go to the south, you will be the only one left at home."

"It's okay. The children go to school and I go to school. If there is anything, ask my mother to come and help."

"Mom also has to take care of the two children of my eldest brother. She

can't handle it alone." "Or we can find a live-in nanny."

Lu Mingfeng thought for a while and said: "I don't feel comfortable leaving the children to outsiders. Otherwise, why don't you bring my parents over?"
