Chen Dongsheng also put down the newspaper, looked at his daughter jumping up and down, and asked with a smile: "Honghong, why did you come back so late today?"
"Dad, I had a conversation with Zhu Yanli." Chen Hong didn't dare to tell the truth. She didn't know what Han Zhenyu meant, so she didn't dare to tell her family.
Chen Dongsheng winked at Yu Huimin.
Yu Huimin nodded slightly and said to Chen Hong, "Honghong, Zhu Yanli is getting married soon, right?"
Chen Hong ate a dumpling and said vaguely, "It's said that it will be settled at the end of the year."
"It's so fast. You two are both 20 in the blink of an eye." Yu Huimin sighed, stroked her daughter's hair and said, "Honghong, you are the youngest in our family. Your parents wanted to keep you for a few more years, but they were afraid of delaying you."
Chen Hong was stunned when she heard this, put down her chopsticks, hugged her arm and acted coquettishly, "Mom, I'm still young!"
"But Yanli, who is your age, is getting married soon." Yu Huimin joked with her, "If your parents stay, all the good boys will be picked up by others."
"Whoever wants to pick can pick, I don't care."
Although Chen Hong said this, she was thinking of Han Zhenyu in her heart, and she ate the dumplings in the bowl with a blushing face.
"If you don't want it, your parents will be worried. We don't want our precious daughter to be an old maid at home."
Yu Huimin smiled and said, "I met your Aunt Sun today. Her youngest son is 24 years old this year and works in the post office. Your aunt and I went to see him today and both thought he was a good boy. How about arranging a meeting between you two?"
When Chen Hong heard that someone was introducing her to a guy, she immediately got anxious and waved her hands and said, "Mom, I don't want to see him. I..."
Because she was too anxious, she almost revealed Han Zhenyu.
Yu Huimin and Chen Dongsheng are both smart people. Seeing their daughter's intense reaction, they both guessed that the girl might have someone in her heart.
The couple looked at each other and said nothing more.
Chen Hong finished the bowl of dumplings absentmindedly, then stood up and said, "Dad, Mom, I'm full. I'm going back to my room first."
Yu Huimin also put down her chopsticks. Chen Dongsheng said, "Go over and ask?"
Chen Hong had just laid down on the bed when Yu Huimin came in. "Honghong, what's wrong with you? Don't you want to find a partner? Or do you not like Aunt Sun's son?"
Seeing that her daughter still didn't say anything, she sat on the edge of the bed and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't like it. Mom and Dad will find you a better one. After all, this is a lifelong thing. You must like it yourself."
Chen Hong hesitated for a while, then said hesitantly, "Mom, I have someone I like."
Yu Huimin's heart sank when she heard this, but she didn't show it on her face. She smiled and asked, "What a fool you are. When did this happen? Why didn't you tell mom that the boy was from our factory?"
"Mom, we haven't even started dating yet." Chen Hong lowered her head and said shyly, "He is the driver of our factory's transportation team."
When Yu Huimin heard that they were from the factory's transport team, she was relieved. As long as they were not those little hooligans outside, it would be fine.
The transport team is the better department in their factory, and those who can get in there all have some connections in their family.
"What's the boy's name? Who's in his family? What do his parents do?"
"His family seems to be from the countryside." Chen Hong didn't want to say it, but she knew that she couldn't hide it.
When Yu Huimin heard that he was from the countryside, she frowned and asked, "Is he a temporary worker or a regular employee?"
Chen Hong immediately said, "I heard that he will be promoted to a regular employee soon, and his household registration will be transferred to the factory."
Yu Huimin's face looked better, but she was still worried. She smiled and tried to get her daughter to tell her, "What's his name? Your father often deals with people from the transport team, so he might know him."
She plans to go to the transport office tomorrow to find out what the boy is like and whether he is attracted by their family's conditions and deliberately approaches her daughter.
Chen Hong bit her lip and said shyly, "His name is Han Zhenyu."
Yu Huimin saw her daughter's shy face and knew that she was trapped.
She sighed in her heart, it's true that girls can't be kept away when they grow up.
Chen Dongsheng was reading a newspaper in the living room. When he saw her coming out of her daughter's room, he asked in a low voice, "What did Honghong say?"
Yu Huimin sat next to him and told him about her daughter's boyfriend.
"He said he was from the countryside and is now a driver for a transport team. His name is Han Zhenyu. Judging from the girl's appearance, he must be obsessed with her. Go and ask around tomorrow to find out what kind of person he is to have obsessed her like that."
She told her husband about her worries, "I don't know if that boy is attracted by our family's conditions or if he is really attracted by our Honghong."
Chen Dongsheng thought more deeply than Yu Huimin. He shook his head and said, "He is a country boy who can join our factory's transport team. He must have some ability. He probably didn't date Honghong for our family's conditions."
"You mean, that boy really likes our Honghong?" Yu Huimin said.
Chen Dongsheng picked up the newspaper next to him and said as he read it, "It's hard to say now. Don't worry. I'll go to the transport team tomorrow to ask. If it's really like what you said, we'll find a way to separate them."
"Alas, this is the only way."
Both husband and wife felt that their family conditions were good, their daughter was pretty, and she had a decent job.
But no matter how much they guessed, they never expected that it was their daughter's one-sided wish, and the other party was a married man.
Su Xiaqiu returned to the brigade headquarters in the evening. The brigade leader had not left yet and was having a meeting with several team leaders in the office.
When the captain saw her, he took a letter from the table and said, "Su Zhiqing, there is a letter for you, sent from Haicheng."
"Thank you, Captain." Su Xieqiu took the letter with a smile and said goodbye to the team leaders present. "You leaders are still working so late. You are really working hard."
Her words made everyone laugh. The leader of Group 4 asked her, "Su Zhiqing, how is the construction of the house going?"
"It's just the beginning, it's still early." Su Xieqiu waved at them, "I won't disturb the leaders from their meeting. Goodbye."
A few people also smiled kindly.
Han Baoqiang, the leader of Group 2, looked unhappy. He looked at her from behind and whispered, "It's really outrageous for a female comrade to be so smooth-talking. Zhenyu doesn't even care about his wife."
Su Xieqiu had already gone out, so he didn't hear what he said, otherwise he would have definitely scolded him again.
Team leader Chen Hongbing glanced at him and said calmly, "Uncle Baoqiang, this is a new society. You should put away your old ways, otherwise the young people will laugh at us for being old-fashioned."
Han Baoqiang felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the captain not giving him face, but he could only smile and reply, "The captain is right."
Su Xieqiu touched the letter and felt it was quite thick, so she did not open it immediately.
First light the kerosene lamp and close the door before opening the letter.
