Miao Liang and Zhai Yaohui, 41
"But I didn't agree to go. It's hard to work every day. I might as well read some books and rest early."
Miao Liang really thought so.
If the factory didn't allow it, she would have to live in the dormitory.
Otherwise, when she had the leisure time to watch movies, Miao Liang would especially like to do some manual work.
The salary is a little less, but a mosquito is still meat.
The Zhai family spent a lot of money on her, so she was thinking about how to make more money and return it to the Zhai family as soon as possible.
Since the factory doesn't allow her to take small private jobs, she would rather read books in the dormitory than go out to watch movies with a bunch of people and make a fuss.
Grandma Zhai grabbed Miao Liang's hand and smiled with relief: "Is that so? That's right. You work so hard every day. Don't run around when you have a break."
She could probably guess whether someone had any feelings for Miao Miao.
But she was quite sure that Miao Miao definitely didn't have that kind of intention towards the other person.
If Miao Miao also thought the other person was good, then it would be over, and Yao Hui would have no chance to perform.
"Miao Miao, since you left, there has been no one to chat with Auntie. Since you all have time to watch a movie tomorrow night, why don't you stay here today and stay with Auntie? How about that?"
Miao Liang shook her head: "No, I still have to go to work tomorrow, but I'll get off work an hour and a half earlier than usual."
In order to get to work on time, it would be much more convenient for Miao Liang to live in the dormitory.
If she lived in Zhai's house, she would be late unless she got up very early in the morning.
"Is that so?" Grandma Zhai didn't want Miao Liang to not have a good rest just to accompany her, and she had to go to work. "Then can you come to see your aunt tomorrow? You can see that in such a big family, your aunt is the only one. Sometimes I think that life is quite boring."
Her son is so old, and he has reached the age of marriage, but he has been putting it off year after year, and even his only partner rejected him a month ago. Grandma
Zhai doesn't know when Zhai Yaohui will be willing to get married, when he will be willing to give her a grandson to take care of.
Being alone at home with nothing to do, this kind of loneliness can easily drive a person crazy.
Miao Liang was a little embarrassed, but she felt that Grandma Zhai was really lonely, so she could only nod in the end: "Okay, I'll come to see you tomorrow. Auntie, it's getting late, I'll go back first."
"Okay, Auntie will wait for you tomorrow."
Grandma Zhai was happy, and she was still smiling until Grandma Zhai came back.
"What's wrong with you today? Why are you in such a good mood?"
"Miao Miao came to see me. Miao Miao said she would come again tomorrow. By the way, Miao Miao brought me a gift, and I haven't opened it yet. Oh, it's a scarf, so beautiful, and it feels warm at first glance. I..."
When Grandma Zhai took out the scarf and put it around her neck, a few banknotes were brought out by the scarf and scattered: "Miao Miao is really a child..."
It turned out that Miao Miao didn't come back to see her today, but to pay her back.
Seeing that in just two months, Miao Liang not only bought gifts for Grandma Zhai, but also returned the hundred yuan, Grandma Zhai was quite appreciative: "Okay, this is Miaomiao's filial piety, just take it. When Miaomiao and Yaohui get married in the future, the money will belong to both of them. It doesn't matter whose pocket it is in now, just think of it as saving for the children."
It's not a big deal.
Grandma Zhai: "I am worried that Miaomiao saves so much money but doesn't eat well and take care of her body. Do you understand?"
"No, Miaomiao knows what it means that the body is the capital of the revolution. You underestimate Miaomiao if you think so."
"I underestimate Miaomiao? Then do you think highly of your son?"
"What do you mean?" Old Zhai stopped what he was doing and walked to sit next to Grandma Zhai.
Grandma Zhai sighed: "Miaomiao told me today that a male co-worker invited her to watch a free movie tomorrow night. What do you think the male co-worker meant by this? He has money but nowhere to spend it, so he invited Miaomiao to watch a movie for free in the middle of the night. It's a pity that Miaomiao didn't agree. Otherwise, it wouldn't work. I feel upset."
"Is this true?" Old Zhai had to take it seriously. "Wait a minute, I'll call Yaohui."
He had guessed that someone would be interested in a girl as good as Miao Miao, but he had not expected that Miao Liang had only been working for two months when his son's rival would appear.
Isn't this speed a bit too fast?
"Hey, Dad, what's the matter?" In order to strive for a good performance in the army and let people know that he is also excellent, not just because he is his father's son, Zhai Yaohui has very little time to rest every day.
Even the holiday a month ago was insisted by the leader, and it was given to both Zhai Yaohui and Shi Peng at the same time.
"Tomorrow night, a male co-worker invited Miaomiao to watch a free movie."
Zhai Yaohui, who was writing with a pen, was stunned. Not only was the perfect word written badly, but the last stroke was dragged out for a long time. Because he wrote too hard, the pen tip wore through several sheets of paper and the pen tip was broken.
Seeing the pen like this, Zhai Yaohui knew that this pen was ruined by his writing.
So, Zhai Yaohui took out a new one from the drawer, uncapped the pen, took out the pen core, and tried to fill the pen core with ink.
But after a long time, the ink did not enter the pen core.
Zhai Yaohui took a deep breath and gave up on continuing to dally with the pen: "Have you decided to go, Miaomiao?"
"Do you think Miaomiao should go?"
"Of course not!" Is there any need to ask this? "It's too unsafe at night, a man and a woman alone, it's not good for Miaomiao's reputation. If the gay man is interested in Miaomiao, he should ask the elders to meet our family. This approach is too frivolous and not suitable for Miaomiao."
Zhai Yaohui almost said it out loud. What if the other party is a beast in human clothing and takes this opportunity to take advantage of Miaomiao and bully Miaomiao?
"You are in the army all day and night, and you can't even see a woman, so what do you know? Now is the era of democracy, and young people value free love. In fact, what's wrong with young people going to the movies together and understanding more? I think Miaomiao can go to see this movie. Miaomiao's biggest wish in this life is to have a home of her own."
"Isn't our home her home? She already has a home!"
Zhai Yaohui raised his voice and became angry.
She already has a home, but she still wants a second home. Isn't it a bit greedy?
