Seeing her smile, Auntie Song thought she had agreed, so she said seriously, "Auntie is serious. There are many good young men. I have really known quite a few in the past few years since I came here." She looked at Niu Huihui and said, "Right?"
Niu Huihui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She held Song Nanting's hand and said, "Yes, your Auntie Song is very proactive. My wife came back and before she had even had two bites of food, the old lady started asking around. She was so thorough in her inquiries. She has been looking around the compound these days, hoping to find a suitable one to introduce to you."
"You better hurry up." Aunt Song said sincerely, "I heard that there will be a group blind date here in the next few days, so I have to find the right one and introduce it to you before then. Otherwise, what if the good one is picked up after the blind date?"
Hearing this, Song Nanting also laughed, "Auntie, I came here to tell you about this. I signed up for a group blind date. I'll go on the second day of next month."
"What?" Aunt Song clapped her hands and laughed when she heard it. "That's great. It's also good for us to meet each other on that day. Ever since you went to the countryside, I have been feeling uneasy, always worried that you would suffer. Now that the blind date is successful, we can get married quickly. Then we will be in the same compound and can take care of each other."
The expression on Aunt Song's face was sincere, and Song Nanting really found it difficult to refuse.
She can't say that she came to the countryside with a purpose, right?
No, I can't tell you. If I really tell you, people might even suspect she's an enemy spy.
Niu Huihui also nodded and said, "What the old lady said is right. The guy she introduced is indeed very good. He is a deputy battalion commander, a high position, 25 years old this year, young and promising. He is also very handsome. The only bad thing is that he was engaged before, but before he got married, his wife was not happy and married someone else. Later, he went on blind dates several times but was not happy. Anyway, he is still single now. He is suitable for you. But if you really go on a blind date, there will be many people, you can get in touch with them. If it works out, you can get to know him better. If not, forget it. Do you think it's okay?"
Song Nanting couldn't say no after all. She just said, "We'll talk about it when the time comes. Maybe when that day comes, she'll find someone she likes and won't like me anymore."
"That's impossible." Niu Huihui smiled, "He said he wanted to find a pretty one."
As for wanting to find someone who is educated, Niu Huihui didn't say anything. She felt that this was a small matter. If one really couldn't read, one could just take literacy classes.
For this matter, Niu Huihui also gave her a note, "Here are the other party's basic conditions and photos, take a look."
Song Nanting took a quick look and saw that he indeed looked young and good-looking. His hometown was not far from the Northeast.
He is indeed a good blind date candidate.
But Song Nanting has someone she loves and is not interested.
So I just took a look and nodded, "Okay, I understand."
After talking for a while, Aunt Song started to prepare the meal. Niu Huihui called out from inside the house, "Mom, don't we have half a chicken? Let's make a pot roast for Nan Ting to try."
Just as Song Nanting said no, Auntie Song's voice came over, "Just wait, I'll let you taste my cooking skills. I just learned this skill from you."
Niu Huihui said with a smile, "Just treat it as your own home." Then she whispered, "My wife knows that you helped the old lady and she wants to thank you."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were so enthusiastic that Song Nanting felt a little embarrassed.
After lunch was ready, there was an iron pot stew with not only chicken pieces, but also potatoes and dried beans, and a layer of cornmeal pancakes on top. The aroma was so fragrant that it made people's appetite grow.
In addition, Aunt Song also stir-fried cabbage with vinegar.
The food was served and Aunt Song's son came back, but unexpectedly there was someone following him.
Song Nanting was surprised. These two people actually knew each other?
Aunt Song was also startled when she saw Lu Jianan, and she quickly looked at her son, "Gao Shu, do you know Captain Lu?"
"Ah, I know him. Of course I know him. Even if he's not my direct supervisor, he's still my supervisor." Song Gaoshu laughed awkwardly. "Didn't you guys come here in Captain Lu's car last time? We just happened to meet today, so we came back together for a quick meal."
God knows how shocked he was when Lu Jianan took the initiative to talk to him.
Lu Jianan's name is known to everyone in the military district. Everyone knows Lu Jianan's reputation.
Song Gaoshu and Lu Jianan were not in the same group. That day he happened to learn that Lu Jianan was in the provincial capital on business and happened to have a car coming back, so he shamelessly called him.
Unexpectedly, Lu Jianan is quite easy to talk to.
Someone helped him, so he had to say hello and be polite when he met them.
Then, Lu Jianan followed him back.
Not to mention the family members were embarrassed, even Song Gaoshu was embarrassed.
He looked at Aunt Song and said, "Mom, is the food ready? If it's ready, let's eat. Everyone knows each other now."
Song Nanting pursed her lips and smiled, "I know you."
She looked up at Lu Jianan, but found that Lu Jianan was not looking at her, as if he didn't know her at all.
The smile on Song Nanting's lips faded, and she thought to herself: What a bastard.
Lu Jianan politely greeted Auntie Song and Niu Huihui, and followed Song Gaoshu into the house. Auntie Song held Song Nanting's arm and chatted outside, "Let me tell you, this Captain Lu doesn't look easy to mess with, and there are many legends about him in the military compound."
Song Nanting was curious, "What legend?"
Just as Aunt Song was about to speak, Niu Huihui called them in. Aunt Song sighed and said, "Forget it, forget it. I may not be able to see him again in the future."
Then he pulled Song Nanting in.
The originally lively dinner table suddenly became silent after two more people appeared.
Lu Jianan was not a lively person to begin with. He sat there like a door god, not saying a word.
Now that the person has been brought back, Song Gaoshu can only bite the bullet and greet him.
If there is no topic to talk about, just find one. If there is no common language, just talk about things in the army.
Song Gaoshu asked, and Lu Jianan answered. For some questions that did not require an answer, Lu Jianan just said, "Yeah."
Song Nanting felt embarrassed for Song Gaoshu.
Aunt Song and Niu Huihui seemed to be quite afraid of Lu Jianan. They hardly spoke a word since they sat down at the table and just let Song Gaoshu greet them.
Auntie Song's cooking skills were very good, and Song Nanting ate two potstickers in a row. After all, she was in someone else's house, so she didn't dare to reach out for the third piece.
When she looked up, she saw Lu Jianan seemed to be staring at her chopsticks.
Song Nanting smiled and said, "Captain Lu, thank you for bringing Aunt Song and me back."
Lu Jianan said calmly, "It's my duty to serve the people."
His voice was a little deep, and he was calm and steady everywhere.
He is completely different from when he was in his forties.
Song Nanting sighed in her heart, but didn't want to miss the opportunity.
She asked, "Captain Lu, do you know about the group blind date on February 2?"
Lu Jianan paused with his hand holding the chopsticks and looked straight at Song Nanting.
