Qin Zheng shook his head. "Sister-in-law, what you said makes some sense, but I don't think it's right."
Sun Lan's heart tightened, but she still didn't want to give up. She gritted her teeth and continued to persuade him, "Captain Qin, although that's what you said, it never hurts to see more people. Even if you're determined now, there's no guarantee that you won't meet someone more satisfactory in the future. Blind dates are like this. Everyone meets several people at once and then chooses the most suitable one to marry. Don't feel burdened."
"If I meet someone more suitable in the future, that will be a matter for the future. At least for now, I think she is the most suitable candidate." After the voice fell, Qin Zheng stood up resolutely. "Thank you for your concern for my personal life, sister-in-law. It's getting late, you should go back."
Once these words were spoken, it was equivalent to ordering Sun Lan and Chen Ying to leave.
Sun Lan wanted to say something more, but Chen Ying grabbed her arm and pulled her aside. Finally, she could only sigh and leave the Qin family with a heavy heart.
After returning home, Sun Lan felt more and more regretful.
Qin Zheng was a potential stock, who was the one who took action so quickly?
She hadn't even had a chance to make a move, so how come someone had already taken him down?!
"Old Chen, you're always on the move. Have you heard who introduced Qin Zheng to someone?"
Chen Ying shook his head. "You don't even know. How can I know if you ask me? I'm busy with work every day. How can I care about such things?"
"If you ask me, just give up. Our Xiaozhou is tall and strong, and he looks like a good candidate for military service. He doesn't necessarily have to rely on nepotism."
"What do you know? Things are different now. When you joined the army, you fought every day and could climb up the ranks just by relying on military merit. Now the country is stable and there are not so many wars to fight. Even if you don't have any connections, even if you can join the army, you will be a small conscript. If you can't get promoted, you will have to pack up and leave in a few years. You don't pay attention to anything, and I have to think about the children."
Sun Lan was secretly competing in her heart. She would never allow the duck with a mouthful of sugar to fly away like that.
In the next two days, Sun Lan secretly asked around, trying to find out about Qin Zheng's blind date, but there was no progress, which made her doubt the authenticity of the matter.
I suspect that Qin Zheng still doesn't want to get married, so he made up an excuse of "having a crush on someone" out of thin air and deliberately avoided blind dates.
On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, Sun Lan finally found a reason to get close to Feng Juan's family.
In order to let the families of soldiers who came from all over the country to Beidahuang to accompany the army feel the local customs and culture during the New Year in Beidahuang, the cadres of the Women's Federation arranged for the sisters-in-law in the family compound to go to the Great Northern Wilderness to celebrate the New Year.
Because there were so many people, they were divided into three groups, one group each for numbers 27, 28, and 29.
Sun Lan deliberately chose the same day as Feng Juan and her daughter, and took the same military truck.
The roads in the wilderness of the Great Northern Wilderness are mostly bumpy. In order to make the family members accompanying the troops more comfortable, a thick layer of straw is laid on the bottom of the military trucks.
Sun Lan huddled next to Feng Juan, greeted her with a smile, and asked her, "Auntie, why are you and Yun Qiao the only two here? Didn't you bring Yuanyuan?"
Feng Juan smiled and explained, "There aren't many people around during the New Year, and it's a mixed crowd. I'm afraid I'll run into kidnappers again. Yuanyuan is a child at heart, after all, and she's easily fooled."
