Chapter 59: Unfair to Him
After she calmed down, Jiang Yu realized what she had done and let go of her hand as if it was burned.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
Her face was even hotter than before, as red as a tomato.
He Tingyue didn't turn around, but his voice, which was always calm, had a little more ups and downs, which made people hear the joy.
"It's okay."
The road after that was very smooth, and Jiang Yu's mood gradually calmed down.
When they got home, her face was not so red.
He Tingyue didn't forget to hand her the things, "Take it."
Jiang Yu twisted her hands, and she didn't really want to accept the things.
First of all, she had nothing to do with He Tingyue, and it was not right to take his things.
Besides, he already felt that he had material things, and if he took these things, wouldn't he feel that his character was even worse?
He Tingyue frowned, seeing the knot in her heart, and stuffed the things into her hands.
"You helped Feiyan, she should be grateful to you."
Jiang Yu looked a little unnatural, "I didn't do anything."
"But if you hadn't been alert, no one would know what would have happened. That's it, I'll pick you up in the evening."
Without giving Jiang Yu a chance to refuse, He Tingyue had already ridden away on his bicycle.
Back at the compound, He Tingyue was riding his bicycle and bumped into Fu Xiangyang who was about to go out.
Fu Xiangyang instinctively stepped back, making way for He Tingyue to go first.
They were both employees of the second factory, but he was just an ordinary worker, while He Tingyue was a cadre and considered his leader.
It was only because they lived in the same compound that he could call him "Brother Yue".
Thinking of what Jiang Ting had just complained to him, Fu Xiangyang looked up at He Tingyue, hesitating.
"Brother Yue, I heard that you and my aunt..."
He Tingyue parked his bike and gave him a blank look, looking intimidating without anger.
Fu Xiangyang looked timid, but the unwillingness in his heart prompted him to speak:
"Brother Yue, please don't mind if I say a few more words. In addition to Feiyan, you have three younger brothers and sisters who are studying, so you have to be more cautious when choosing a wife. It is said that you should marry a virtuous wife, and I think my aunt is not suitable for you."
"Oh? How do you mean?"
Fu Xiangyang was encouraged. He couldn't tell what he was thinking. He was not happy when he thought that Jiang Yu could marry He Tingyue.
Or, if Jiang Yu found someone better than him, he would not be willing.
"I heard from Jiang Ting that although my eldest aunt is pretty, she is very lazy, doesn't like to work, has a cunning personality, and always pushes the housework to Jiang Ting. Plus how she treated her younger brother and sister-in-law before, you know she is not a good person."
He Tingyue raised his eyelids and sneered, and the sarcasm in his eyes was almost overflowing.
"A grown man, gossiping behind my back, what a shame."
Fu Xiangyang's skin was pale and red like an apple, as if it could drip blood.
"You have been in the factory for two years, but you don't make progress. So you have spent all your energy here? If you do it again, the National Cotton Mill will not support idle people."
Fu Xiangyang felt like he was slapped in the face, his face was burning, and he couldn't say a word to refute.
He just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, but He Tingyue didn't let him go.
"It's none of your business to say anything about her. Don't covet someone you shouldn't touch, you don't deserve it."
...
On the other side, Jiang Yu stood there for a long time before carrying his things back home.
As soon as he went upstairs, he saw Wang Meili and others lurking at the door.
Jiang Yu frowned and showed an unhappy look.
Wang Meili smiled coldly, "Jiang Yu, do you really think you are a city dweller? You don't even recognize your parents?"
There are four families on the first floor of Yao Xiangling's building. The sound insulation is not very good. If something happens in anyone's house, it can be heard by others.
Look, the nosy old lady next door has already poked her head out.
"Xiao Jiang, it turns out that it's your parents. I just called them in for tea, but they refused, saying they were waiting for you to come back."
Jiang Yu responded, "Grandma Zhao, please, I'll take them in now."
Old Mrs. Zhao nodded, "There is no knot in this family that can't be untied. Talk to your parents nicely. It's not easy for them. People like this can't forget their roots. If they are unfilial to their parents, they will be struck by lightning."
Jiang Yu ignored her muttering, opened the door and led them in.
As soon as the door was closed, Wang Meili reached out to take the bag in her hand.
"What's in it? Mom thinks it's heavy. Let me carry it for you."
Jiang Yu hesitated for a moment, took out a bag of peach cakes and peanuts from inside and handed it over, and put the rest away.
"These are gifts for my aunt. I can't give them all to you. Mom, just take these two bags back. Keep your voice down so no one sees you."
Wang Meili was fooled. She thought Jiang Yu was indeed a heartless girl. She knew to give her aunt's things to her family.
Even Jiang Yonghua's expression softened a bit.
Jiang Yonghua said, "Last time you said you had a date in the city. When are you going to bring her home? Jiang Ting is married now. You have to hurry up with your marriage."
Jiang Yu lied calmly, "I was not satisfied with the last date, so we broke up."
Jiang Yonghua and Wang Meili's faces changed drastically.
"You damn girl, why did you break up? It's good enough to marry a city guy, but you're still picky? Why don't you look in the mirror? What qualifications do you have to be dissatisfied with?"
Wang Meili stretched out her hand to hit her, but was dodged by Jiang Yu.
"Mom, I have a friend who works as a salesperson in the supply and marketing cooperative. She contacted her cousin and came back to meet me in the next few days."
Wang Meili paused and asked hurriedly, "What are her cousin's conditions?"
"An officer, a battalion-level cadre, stationed in Heilongjiang Province."
In just a few sentences, Wang Meili was confused.
Officer! She never thought in her life that Jiang Yu could marry an officer!
"Oh my, smoke is coming out of our ancestral tomb! Jiang Yu, you have to seize the moment, do you hear me?"
Jiang Yu felt a little guilty and used Huang Zefang as a shield.
She was actually confused these past two days, always feeling that she was entangled with He Tingyue, and then she turned around and went on a blind date with Huang Zefang. It felt like riding a donkey to look for a horse, which was not very kind.
Originally, I wanted to mention it to Xie Feifei when I went out today, otherwise I would not go on a blind date with Huang Zefang.
But when He Feiyan's matter disturbed me, I forgot to mention it.
"I understand. If you have nothing to do, go back first. Anyway, my letter of introduction is about to expire. If the blind date doesn't work out, I will go back to the countryside and get married."
Wang Meili's eyes sparkled when she heard about the "battalion-level cadre". How could she accept Jiang Yu marrying a countryman?
"How can that be! You must seize this opportunity as a soldier! Whether your brother can benefit from your sister in the future depends on you! Oh, yes, Jiang Hao, come here quickly. Didn't you agree to come here today to apologize to your eldest sister?"
Jiang Hao was stunned and widened his eyes in disbelief.
His eyes are a little small, not like his parents at all. When he tried to open them wide, they looked like a seam.
Clearly, when she was leaving, Wang Meili said that she would coax the money out of Jiang Yu's hand.
How come in the blink of an eye, she asked him to come out and apologize!
He was reluctant, but Jiang Yonghua patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Hao, why don't you apologize to your elder sister quickly? We are all family, there is no overnight hatred!"
Jiang Hao had to grit his teeth and lower his head, "Eldest sister, I'm sorry for what happened last time, I already know I was wrong."
Jiang Yu sneered in his heart, but didn't show it on his face.
"It doesn't matter, anyway, the Du family has been taught a lesson, I don't care anymore. Be careful in the future, if there is a next time, I will not let you go easily."
Jiang Hao's face froze, and he clenched his fists tightly. In fact, he hated Jiang Yu in his heart.
If it weren't for her, Du Juan wouldn't have broken up with him.
Wang Meili was afraid of meeting Yao Xiangling, so she didn't stay for long, and happily took the things back to her hometown.
Jiang Yu thought about it, but couldn't help but go to Xie's house and mentioned the blind date to Xie Feifei.
"You came just in time. Can we set the blind date for the day after tomorrow?"
Jiang Yu apologized, "I just wanted to tell you about this. Otherwise, let's forget it."
Xie Feifei was not unhappy. Instead, she asked, "Do you still like He Feiyan's brother?"
Jiang Yu was stunned and looked confused.
After she pointed it out, it was as if the fog in her heart had been cleared and she got a clear answer.
She nodded, "Yes."
She should like He Tingyue.
"It's not fair to your cousin if I go on a blind date like this."
Xie Feifei covered her mouth and chuckled, "This is the first time I've seen someone as simple as you. Do you think my cousin only went on blind dates with you? He came back ten days ago, and my aunt arranged five blind dates for him! You're just one of them, not the first one. So it's not fair to you."
But blind dates are like this, you meet the most suitable and favorite one, and then get a marriage certificate.
In such a short time, you can only learn very little, nothing more than family and personal conditions.
If you don't look at those external conditions, what else can you look at?
"Relax, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Even if you don't like my cousin, it's okay, just think of it as making another friend. The lesbian my cousin met two days ago really liked him, but he didn't like her. You can't just let it go like this and still hold him responsible, right? Blind dates are supposed to be two-way."
After hearing her say this, Jiang Yu felt better and agreed to have dinner with Huang Zefang the day after tomorrow.
