Chapter 224

Chapter 224

The next day, after Xu Di finished his breakfast, changed his clothes, talked to his grandmother, and hurried out.

Xu Qiang’s unit is not far from the compound where they lived before, but it is not close to where they live now.

Because she was accompanying Xu Qiang to look for a date, Xu Di dressed up a little to make herself look steady and generous.

At around 8:40, Xu Di got off the bus.

"Sister, here."

Xu Qiang was waiting for her at the station. It was such a cold day and he was wearing a woolen coat. I wonder if he was cold?

"Aren't you cold?"

"Alas, at first I wanted to dress up a bit smarter. This dress was bought in the south before. It was a clearance sale and only cost fifty yuan.

After a while, I regretted coming out because it was too cold. ”

Xu Qiang laughed out loud, thinking that this silly brother was so funny.

"Okay, it's too late to go back and change now. I hope the girl won't think you're stupid."

"Oh, let's leave it to fate!"

Xu Qiang felt that God didn't like him either, because it wasn't so cold yesterday.

"Let's go. The cans I'm carrying are going to freeze."

Xu Qiang led the way in front and Xu Di followed behind. It was really cold today and his teeth felt frozen when he opened his mouth to talk.

"Sister, we're here. Brother Meng's house is on the third floor.

Our transport team has very good benefits, especially the housing, which is quite spacious. ”

Xu Qiang thought that since he had already been converted to a regular employee, if he got married, he would also be able to get his own room next time when the housing system was allocated.

When they arrived at the door, Xu Qiang knocked. Xu Di looked at his watch. It was still ten minutes to nine, so there was still enough time.

"Brother Meng, excuse me for disturbing you. I'm a little embarrassed, so I asked my sister to accompany me here."

Xu Di hurried over to say hello. She had also met Captain Meng.

"Brother Meng, long time no see, sorry to bother you."

"Sister-in-law, you are welcome. Come in, come in."

Captain Meng has been demobilized for several years and is now the captain of the transport team.

"Yingzi, Chaoyang's wife is here, you two should get to know each other."

"Here it comes. Here it comes."

A sister-in-law in her thirties came out of the kitchen with a smile on her face.

"This is Chaoyang's wife. She looks like a student."

"Hello, sister-in-law. I'm Xu Di. It's our first meeting. Sorry to bother you."

Xu Di quickly greeted him. She was actually not very good at chatting with strangers.

"Come and sit down. You're welcome. We are familiar with Chaoyang. Don't be shy when you come to my sister-in-law's place."

Mrs. Meng was very talkative and quick-witted, so Xu Di also relaxed a little.

"Chaoyang hasn't come back. I haven't seen him for a long time."

Captain Meng and Zhang Chaoyang had been on missions together and got along well with each other. They could be considered friends for life and death.

"Well, Chaoyang is busy with work."

Xu Di didn't know what to say. She really didn't understand Zhang Chaoyang's work.

"Most of the work in the army is confidential. When I was with the army before, I was also subject to confidentiality regulations.

We have no idea what they are busy with.

Xu Di, I heard that you are in college, you are really awesome. Everyone says that getting into university is difficult. Many people take the exam, but not many can pass.

If my two children can get into college in the future, I will wake up with a smile even when I am asleep. ”

"Teaching conditions will get better and better in the future, and there is hope for all the children."

Listening to Mrs. Meng chatting, I felt very cordial.

"Yingzi, Qiuwen and Qiuxia are here."

Captain Meng heard a knock on the door and his cousin and cousin came in together.

"Qiu Wen isn't on duty today?"

"Cousin, I was on duty last week."

Xu Di and Xu Qiang also stood up. Today's protagonists had arrived.

“Let me introduce you, Qiuwen and Qiuxia. This is my colleague Xu Qiang, and his cousin Xu Di, who is also the lover of my comrade-in-arms.

Sister-in-law, Xu Qiang, this is my cousin Qiuwen and my cousin Qiuxia. ”

Captain Meng introduced both parties. Xu Di skipped the male comrade and glanced at the female comrade.

She is about 1.6 meters tall, with two pigtails, an oval face, almond eyes, and is really good-looking.

"Hello, Comrade Wang. I am Xu Qiang."

"Hello, Comrade Xu. I am Wang Qiuxia."

The two people introduced themselves briefly, and both felt a little reserved.

Six people, all find a place to sit.

"Xu Qiang, Qiu Xia, I know both of you well, so I arranged for us to meet today. Let's talk about whatever we want to say and get to know each other. If both sides feel it's okay, we can get along well."

Captain Meng has a military style and doesn't like to procrastinate in doing things.

"Cousin, we believe you. Xiaoxia met an unreliable person before, and we have a trauma in our hearts.

Comrade Xu, we have the good fortune to be sitting here today, and we are all moving in a good direction. ”

"What Brother Meng said makes sense. We are all adults, and we are at the age of starting a family and building a career. We all want to live a good life."

Xu Qiang was not nervous at all. He was the strongest in the Xu family in terms of interpersonal relationships.

"Qiuxia, if you have anything to ask, please be frank and say whatever you want to say."

"Comrade Xu, I heard from my cousin that you have three brothers. Will you live with your parents after you get married?"

Wang Qiuxia was also afraid. She knew her previous boyfriend well, but she never expected that such a bad thing would happen just before getting married.

“Comrade Wang, my eldest brother is studying in a military academy, and my younger brother is in junior high school.

I still have grandparents at home. If nothing unexpected happens, my parents will stay in the village for another ten or twenty years.

When they get old and need care from their children, my brothers and I will discuss how to support our parents. As for whether I will live with my parents at that time, I can’t give you an answer now.

However, as children, it is our duty to be filial to our parents. ”

Xu Qiang never felt that his parents were a stumbling block on his road to marriage. If the woman felt that his parents were a burden, then so be it.

"Comrade Xu, I am not against respecting the elderly. I just think that respecting the elderly is the right thing to do, but we cannot always obey them."

Wang Qiuxia also wanted to confirm whether Comrade Xu was obedient to his parents.

"Xu Qiang, Qiuxia's last boyfriend's parents asked her to give up her job, and her boyfriend listened to them and thought they were right.

So, she wants to know whether you will obey your parents' arrangements unconditionally. ”

Captain Meng explained that his cousin was a very reasonable person.

"Brother Meng, normal people won't just listen to what their parents say. We all have the ability to judge right from wrong. We should consider and discuss reasonable suggestions. Of course, we should explain unreasonable ones to our parents and reject them."

Xu Qiang didn’t quite understand that kind of man, nor did he understand the parents who made that kind of request.

Maybe his family is very harmonious and there are no conflicts between his grandmother and his mother.

"Comrade Wang, my second uncle and second aunt are very sensible people. They are in their early forties and less than fifty, and they are in good health.

If nothing unexpected happens, they will continue to live in the village. My second uncle is the accountant of the brigade and he will have to work there for more than ten years.

My second aunt is easy-going. She has lived with my grandmother for more than 20 years and they have a harmonious relationship.

It is not difficult for you to find out about this, and we cannot embellish facts that do not exist.

Brother Meng knows Xu Qiang better. He doesn't have the ability to buy a house for the time being and can only wait for his company to allocate housing. ”

Xu Di felt that her grandmother and second aunt were a rare mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who got along well with each other. Besides, there was really little chance that Xu Qiang and his family would live with their parents in the future.

Both sides raised some questions, and Comrade Wang also said that she and her previous partner had completely broken up and there was no inseparable relationship between them.

This is also what Xu Qiang wanted to know. He didn't want his wife to be involved with her ex after getting married.

We had a good impression of each other during this blind date.

Xu Qiang invited Comrade Wang to go out to see a movie so that the two of them could be alone together.

Comrade Wang agreed, and the two of them left. Xu Di sat in Meng's house for a while and talked with Mrs. Meng.

Before noon, Xu Di returned home.

After I got home, I told Grandma Qian what happened. Grandma said that the girl had good conditions and if she had a nice personality as well, she would be a good match.

However, it is better for the two to spend more time together and understand each other's personalities. Don't wait until after marriage to feel that they are not suitable for each other, which will be very troublesome.

Xu Di also felt that they should spend more time together and not be too anxious.

However, this matter depends on Xu Qiang and his second uncle and aunt. Grandpa and grandma will probably give their opinions, but they will not help make the decision.

No matter what, I hope Xu Qiang's marriage will be successful.
