When Meng Ying heard Jian Shu agree, she said happily, "Oh, that's right. Apart from anything else, the blind date your Uncle Zhao found for you this time is incredibly outstanding. His character, family background, abilities, and looks are all top-notch. He's much better than the Lu Jianan they recommended."
Meng Ying actually didn't have too many prejudices against Lu Jianan. She had also found out everything about this incident. Lu Jianan hadn't mentioned Jianshu to anyone since the social gathering, and it was obvious that he wasn't going to get entangled.
What happened later was nothing more than some people thinking they had good intentions and were self-righteous.
But he was the root cause of this incident, and Meng Ying couldn't help but vent her anger on him, and would use him as a scapegoat at this time.
But it's not that she has any prejudice against him. Even Li Zhengwei and Huang Shuyun, after she taught them a lesson, she will not continue to care about them.
You hit me with a punch, and I hit you with a knife, and we're even.
When Jianshu heard that she still wanted to mention Lu Jianan at this time, he couldn't help but feel helpless. Aunt Meng was arguing with him.
It seems that if she doesn't find a good partner and let Aunt Meng and the others forget about this, she will definitely hear this name often.
"Okay, Auntie, I understand. Is the time confirmed? Which day? So I can ask for leave in advance." Jian Shu said.
Since she has agreed, she will not continue to be pretentious. She still needs to ask for the time in advance so that she can make arrangements early.
"Don't worry. He is also a soldier and is not in Beijing. He needs to ask for leave to come here, and it will take him a few more days on the road. It will take him many days to get here. After he arrives, we can make an appointment so that you can meet him properly." Meng Ying said.
It turned out that the man was also a soldier. However, Jianshu thought about it and felt that it was normal. After all, Uncle Zhao had been a soldier for so many years, and most of his connections were in the army. The probability that the person he introduced was a soldier was the highest.
Jianshu is quite fond of soldiers and would be willing to marry one. Who among modern people hasn't said online: "The country owes me a soldier, and I'm waiting for the country to give me a partner?"
Besides, weren't her parents and uncles all soldiers in this life? Compared to other identities, her trust and favorability towards soldiers were different.
"Since he is not in Beijing, why would Uncle Zhao think of him?" Jian Shu was a little puzzled.
Logically speaking, there should be many outstanding young people in the Beijing army. Why did Uncle Zhao think of someone far away first?
Meng Ying replied, "His father is an old comrade-in-arms of your father and your Uncle Zhao. They've been in contact over the years. We've also met that kid, and he's an extremely talented person. When your Uncle Zhao mentioned finding a partner for you this time, he was the first person he thought of."
After saying that, Meng Ying suddenly thought of something. She winked at Jian Shu and said with a smile, "Speaking of him, you and he actually have a connection. You should have heard of him too."
An old comrade-in-arms, she had a connection with him. Looking at Meng Ying's teasing eyes, Jian Shu instantly thought of someone.
The man who almost got engaged to her as a child, Uncle Gu’s youngest son.
"You're not going to Uncle Gu's son, are you?" Jian Shu asked in surprise.
Meng Ying guessed it the moment she saw Jianshu, and immediately smiled, "Yes, it's him, your Uncle Gu's youngest son."
"Isn't Brother Gu married yet?" Jian Shu was a little confused.
Although the two families had a good relationship, they lived far away from each other, and because of some deliberate actions of her father, she had basically no impression of Uncle Gu's children and had no understanding of his situation.
In her heart, he was just the son of her father's comrade-in-arms.
"No, the child is 24 years old this year, and all his thoughts are on his work. Your Aunt Gu is gone, and your Uncle Gu also thinks that this matter is not urgent, and no one worries about his life events.
"This time, when your Uncle Zhao wanted to introduce you to someone, he was the first person he thought of, so he immediately called your Uncle Gu. When he heard that he wanted you to go on a blind date with that kid, he immediately agreed." Meng Ying shook her head and said.
As for the real reason why the boy from the Gu family didn't get married, besides the fact that he himself didn't have this idea, it was also because Gu Zhan didn't force him.
Otherwise, at the age of 24, even if you are not married, it is not that you have never had a blind date.
As for Gu Zhan's thoughts, Meng Ying could more or less guess some of them. Isn't it just to wait for Shushu to grow up?
Unless the child has found someone he likes and wants to get married, Gu Zhan would never urge him. He still wants Shushu and Gu Xiaozi to be a couple.
Patience will bring results. Isn't this what he has been waiting for?
Thinking of what Lao Zhao said, and how happy Gu Zhan looked after he explained his purpose, Meng Ying couldn't help laughing.
But she also understood. After all, ever since Gu Zhan met Shushu when he was a child, he had wanted Gu Zhan and Shushu to get engaged.
Although he was rejected by Jian Yucheng, he still didn't give up and would bring it up every now and then. After so many years, it would make people feel uncomfortable if he didn't mention it every time.
It was because they were far apart that Jian Yucheng could still tolerate it. If he was right next to him, Jian Yucheng would have beaten him up long ago.
This time, Lao Zhao suggested that Gu Zhan and Shu Shu go on a blind date. Gu Zhan was unhappy and thought, "It's strange that the wish he had for so many years is about to come true."
Although the two of them might not necessarily be together, Gu Zhan chose to ignore this fact.
Jianshu never expected that after many twists and turns, the person she was going on a blind date with turned out to be the person who almost became her childhood sweetheart. It was such a coincidence.
"Come to think of it, Shushu, you don't know his name yet?" Meng Ying suddenly asked.
She remembered that when Jian Yucheng was around, whenever there was news about the Gu family, he would not tell Jian Shu. Even when Gu came to Beijing twice, he had never met Jian Shu.
With Jian Yucheng's current situation, it is very likely that Jian Shu doesn't know Gu Xiaozi's name.
Jian Shu nodded obediently. Her father had never mentioned it to her, and even if she happened to hear it, she only heard him called "Gu brat" or "that little bastard." She didn't know his real name.
Meng Ying felt helpless when she saw her nod. Jian Yucheng really treated Gu as a thief.
If Shushu gets married in the future, won’t he cry himself to death? However, when he thought about it, Meng Ying felt relieved and depressed again. He would never see her again.
"Then remember this, the child's name is Gu Mingjing, Ming for tomorrow, Jing for scenery." Meng Ying controlled her emotions and said to Jian Shu with a smile.
"Gu, Ming, Jing." Jian Shu slowly pronounced the name. It was a normal name, but it felt different when it came out of her mouth.
The fate of the two began from then on.
