Fang Suzhen was stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously asked, "What marriage?"
Seeing her son's condition, she didn't expect him to get married in his lifetime.
Over the years, so many people have introduced him to potential partners, but he just hasn't liked any of them. Who knows when he'll finally get a wife?
"Don't lie to us. Your son brought his girlfriend home. How could you not know?"
"That's right, you kept it a secret from us?"
"Many people in our family compound saw it. Jiang Ling brought a girl into your house this afternoon. If that's not his girlfriend, who could it be?"
After hearing this, everyone else started talking at once, but Fang Suzhen was completely confused.
Her son, Jiang Ling? Did he bring his partner back?
How is this possible?
She didn't believe it at first, but after hearing so many people say it, she had to take it to heart.
Could it be that Jiang Ling really has a partner?
When she thought of this, Fang Suzhen suddenly became excited.
She must ask her son about it when he comes back in the evening.
Here, Ma Xiaoe took Jiang Ling to the school cafeteria.
Today Jiang Ling was wearing casual clothes instead of military uniform, and was much more low-key.
After entering the cafeteria, Jiang Ling originally said that he wanted Ma Xiao'e to treat him, but later he bought a bowl of the most delicious braised pork noodles in Beijing for himself and Ma Xiao'e.
This braised pork noodle is a specialty of Jing City, but it is a little expensive. He guessed that Ma Xiao'e would not order it normally, so he simply treated her to a good meal today.
Seeing Jiang Ling pay, Ma Xiao'e took out the money from her pocket and handed it to him, "It's my treat, how can I let you pay?"
"Okay, I was just kidding. Your living expenses are not much to begin with, and you have to buy books for study, which makes even less. Consider this as my treat for you. Cheng Cheng is very important to me, and you helping her with her treatment is a huge help to me."
"That won't do. The books you gave me are priceless. I can't take advantage of you." Ma Xiao'e said and pushed the money back.
Jiang Ling knew that this girl was stubborn, and if they continued pushing and shoving like this, more people would definitely look in their direction.
She is so thin-skinned that she won't even be able to eat by then.
So he had to keep the money first, thinking of finding a chance to return it to her later.
Jiang Ling guessed correctly. Although Ma Xiao'e's family conditions were pretty good, she was not a spendthrift person. A meal of braised pork noodles cost 80 cents, and she couldn't bear to eat it.
"This noodle smells so good." After the noodles were served, Ma Xiao'e smelled it and couldn't help but sigh.
Jiang Ling stirred it for her with chopsticks and handed it to her. "This is a specialty of Jing City. It tastes more fragrant. Try it."
Ma Xiao'e was also hungry, so she took a bite and found that it tasted even better.
Seeing that she was eating happily, Jiang Ling lowered his head and started eating too.
He eats fast, a habit he developed in the army.
While Ma Xiao'e was still eating in small bites, Jiang Ling had already finished a bowl of noodles.
Ma Xiao'e looked up and saw that Jiang Ling had finished the noodles in his bowl. She said in shock, "How did you finish all of it? Eating too fast can damage your spleen and stomach."
"This is a habit I developed in the army. I will pay attention to it next time." Since Ma Xiao'e said so, Jiang Yue had no choice but to respond.
Seeing this, Ma Xiao'e had no choice but to lower her head and start eating her noodles.
She ate with great relish, and the sauce got all over her face. Seeing this, Jiang Ling subconsciously stretched out his fingers to wipe it off for her.
Ma Xiao'e looked up at Jiang Ling and was stunned. For a moment, there was an awkward moment between the two. Jiang Ling realized that he had just crossed the line and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
"No...it's okay." Ma Xiao'e lowered her head and continued eating noodles.
Since she lost weight, her appetite has become much smaller than before.
There was so much noodles in this bowl that she couldn't finish it.
Seeing that she was already a little full, Jiang Ling took the remaining noodles from her hand and said, "If you can't finish it, forget it. Don't force yourself."
Ma Xiao'e also felt it was a pity. She really couldn't bear to waste such expensive noodles.
Just then, she saw Jiang Ling eating up all the remaining noodles.
Ma Xiao'e widened her eyes in shock. Jiang Ling actually ate all the food she had left?
Jiang Ling didn't think anything of it. Wasting food is not a good thing.
After he finished eating, he raised his head and looked at Ma Xiao'e. Seeing this, Ma Xiao'e immediately lowered her head, her ears turning red with shame.
After dinner, Jiang Ling sent Ma Xiaoe to the girls' dormitory.
Only after seeing her go in did he turn around and leave.
However, he had already made an appointment with Ma Xiao'e to take her to look for books tomorrow.
He has to go back to the army the day after tomorrow, and I don’t know when we will meet again.
After Ma Xiao'e returned home, her heart was pounding and her face was extremely red.
She walked to the window and saw Jiang Ling riding away on his bicycle, then turned and went into the dormitory.
After Jiang Ling returned, he was blocked in the living room by Fang Suzhen.
"Son, tell me honestly, are you dating someone?" Fang Suzhen pulled Jiang Ling to sit down and asked anxiously.
When Jiang Ling heard Fang Suzhen say this, he knew that he could not hide the fact that he brought Ma Xiaoe here today from his parents.
So he nodded and said, "We're not dating yet. I'm interested in her and I'm in the pursuit stage. I was planning to tell you after things are settled."
Fang Suzhen was extremely excited when she heard that Jiang Ling actually had someone he liked.
Many people were introduced to him before, but he didn't like any of them.
She had even prepared herself for the possibility of never having a grandchild in this life, but unexpectedly, such a pleasant surprise came to her?
"Whose family is this girl from? Mom will propose marriage to you."
"She is thin-skinned, so just ignore her and don't scare her. When things are done, I will bring her back to see you and Dad." Jiang Ling was also afraid that Fang Suzhen would scare Ma Xiaoe, so he had to speak.
"Okay, then I won't go for now. Good luck, son. It depends on you whether I can hold my grandson. This way, when you get married and have children, little Youyou will have a companion." Fang Suzhen patted Jiang Ling's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I will bring your daughter-in-law back to you soon." Jiang Ling also knew that Fang Suzhen had worried a lot about her marriage over the years, so he coaxed her.
After Fang Suzhen learned about this, she was happy every time she went out.
She finally let go of a big thing in her heart, how could she not be happy?
So she couldn't wait to share this matter with Su Ying the next day, but she didn't expect that Su Ying knew it earlier than her.
"You girl, why didn't you tell me earlier when you knew this?"
Su Ying took her arm and said with a smile, "I want to wait until this matter is finalized before telling you. Although I can't tell you who that person is, I am sure that she will definitely be a good daughter-in-law. You will definitely like her when you meet her."
