Chapter 1051: Why don't you play by the rules?
Tang Jingyue went to Gao Zheng's house today to give him a mobile phone. She got a phone number for Gao Zheng and prepared to give him the phone after everything was ready.
Ever since Gao Zheng had said before that Tang Jingyue was not allowed to wait for him at the door of his unit, Tang Jingyue had been very obedient and had never been to the door of the Narcotics Enforcement Bureau again.
She called Gao Zheng's workplace and, thinking she would get off work at the same time as Gao Zheng, she took a bus directly to Gao's house.
She basically never drove when she went to Gao's house, so this gave her a reason to ask Gao Zheng to take her there.
The two of them have more legitimate time to be alone.
After getting off the bus, Tang Jingyue went to the vegetable market near the military compound to buy some fresh greenhouse vegetables, a fish, and a chicken.
Through her observations during this period, she discovered a problem: every time she went to the Gao family, Old Mrs. Gao would always ask the nanny to buy more vegetables.
Normally, there are almost no vegetables or meat with nutritional value in their refrigerator.
There were a few times when she dropped by without saying hello and saw the old couple and the nanny sitting at the dining table, eating only porridge, steamed buns and shredded potatoes.
Tang Jingyue was deeply moved and at the same time, felt sorry for the old man.
People of their generation who had worked hard were always thrifty. After retirement, Mr. Gao retired all the guards assigned to him by the army. I heard that he didn't need a nanny at home, and the couple lived alone.
In the past two years, the old lady’s physical strength was limited and she could not cook, so the army arranged a nanny to come.
Even though they were so frugal, they never treated her badly. During the time when she was recuperating, they served her bone soup or fish soup in different ways every day.
The old man must have tasted it himself.
From now on, everyone is a family, and Tang Jingyue really wants to honor them in time.
Tang Jingyue walked into the military compound carrying heavy bags of vegetables in both hands.
At this time, some middle-aged women who were out buying groceries in the compound happened to see Tang Jingyue and stopped to greet her enthusiastically.
All the neighbors in the compound knew the news that Gao Zheng was getting engaged to Tang Jingyue, and they were all very happy for Gao Zheng.
The only older male youth in the compound finally solved his personal problems.
He deserves everyone's happiness.
"Jingyue is here?"
Aunt Liu looked at her and greeted her warmly.
Tang Jingyue asked politely, "Auntie, haven't you cooked yet?"
Aunt Liu smiled and replied, "No, aren't we going to buy groceries?"
Aunt Liu said as she glanced at the bag of vegetables in Tang Jingyue's hand. Her eyes were full of envy. "Jingyue, you bought so many vegetables, fresh peppers, garlic sprouts, chicken and fish."
All are hard dishes.
Aunt Wang next to her asked, "Jingyue, what day are you having today?
So rich? "
Tang Jingyue smiled and said, "It's not a special day. I just passed by the market and bought it."
"Yeah?"
The auntie groaned twice, her tone full of envy, "You are worthy of being a boss. You are so open when buying vegetables. In this season, you are the only ones who can eat greenhouse vegetables."
Aunt Wang said with a smile, "Usually, the aunt in Gao's family would go out to buy two scallions and a few leaves of green vegetables, and even steamed the buns herself. She is a model of thrift and diligence in our compound, and she even married a generous boss' daughter-in-law. In the future, the old man will enjoy a happy life."
Tang Jingyue was not good at dealing with these enthusiastic aunties and grandmas. The two of them joked and talked with each other. Although they had no ill intentions, Tang Jingyue still felt very uncomfortable.
She wanted to say goodbye to them, but these two enthusiastic middle-aged women stood in front of her and had no intention of giving way. They started asking about their engagement.
In line with the principle of simplicity and low-key, no invitations were sent to the neighbors in the military area, except for a former subordinate of Mr. Gao.
Aunt Liu asked curiously, "Jingyue, where are you holding the banquet?"
Tang Jingyue smiled awkwardly, "I don't know either. I'll just listen to the arrangements made by the elders."
"Oh, then it must be held in a hotel. It's impossible to hold it in the compound. There's no movement. I wonder how many people they invited. Are our neighbors honored to attend?"
"this………"
Tang Jingyue really didn't know whether invitations had been sent to the neighbors in the compound.
Gao Zheng's jeep drove into the compound. He saw his girl from a distance in the car. She was standing there with bags in her hands. Aunt Liu and Aunt Wang from the compound were facing her, saying something enthusiastically. The girl had an awkward smile on her face.
Gao Zheng frowned slightly. He drove forward for a while and then stopped.
He got out of the car, strode up to Tang Jingyue, and without saying anything, took over the bags in Tang Jingyue's hands.
"Xiao Zheng is off work?"
Aunt Wang saw Gao Zheng and greeted him with a smile.
"Yeah, just got off work."
Gao Zheng looked at his watch and said politely, "Aunt Liu, Aunt Wang, we have to go back to cook. We can talk again when we have time."
Aunt Liu explained awkwardly, "Go back quickly. We were so happy to see your partner that we forgot the time. We also have to go buy groceries."
Gao Zheng was carrying a bag of vegetables and Tang Jingyue followed beside him.
After the two aunts walked away, Gao Zheng glanced at the cold and indifferent girl in black next to him. He said lightly, "Why are you standing there like an idiot?
Not cold?
Not heavy? "
Tang Jingyue met his gaze and quickly looked away, "I'm chatting with them."
"Did you enjoy the chat?"
Gao Zheng asked in a calm voice.
Tang Jingyue reached out and tucked the hair that fell by her ear, saying, "Stand tall."
Gao Zheng saw her insincere expression and sighed softly, "Jingyue, although these uncles and aunts in the compound are very enthusiastic, you can also choose not to respond."
Hearing this, Tang Jingyue looked at him again and asked cautiously, "Is it okay?"
"Of course, if you see them, just say hello politely, but don't stop."
Don't even think about leaving until you stop.
His little boy has a paralyzed face and is not good at speaking. Even though he is lively, he can't stand the questioning from those aunties.
Tang Jingyue was worried and asked, "Wouldn't that be a bit rude?"
Gao Zheng looked at her lovingly and replied, "It's okay. You don't have to put yourself in a difficult position just to please others."
Tang Jingyue smiled at him, "I know."
“Why did you buy so many vegetables?”
Gao Zheng raised the heavy bag in his hand.
Looking at the expressionless face of the little guy, I felt quite helpless.
Tang Jingyue replied, "I bought it when I passed by the vegetable market."
"Want to cook for me?"
Gao Zheng laughed and teased.
"I……"
When it comes to cooking, Tang Jingyue seemed to be in trouble and spoke very unconfidently, "I only know how to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes."
Gao Zheng was just joking at first, but when he saw the little face paralysis answering seriously, he suddenly became interested, "Okay, fry one for me to try."
Tang Jingyue, "..."
She complained in a muffled voice, "Why don't you play by the rules?"
