Mingdong survived the crisis and was allocated a two-bedroom house. When Osmanthus went to Anbei to live, Mrs. Li and Wang Sufen packed up a lot of things. Li Muwu helped them get on the train, and even went to the post office in the street to call Mingdong and asked him to pick him up on the train.

    The matter of Mingdong was settled, Mrs. Li finally had a mind, she always had a smile on her face, and she even asked Wang Sufen to cook two good dishes, and decided to drink one in the evening The cup was celebrating, but when the wine was poured, Mrs. Li picked up the wine cup and looked at Ming Nan, who was eating with his head down, and suddenly thought that Ming Nan was not too young, so he didn't have a match yet.

    Mr. Li was worried again, and she lost her mind to drink. Putting the wine cup away, Mrs. Li looked at Ming Nan and asked meaningfully: "Ming Nan, you are all here. It's been two years of classes, right?"

    Mingnan scooped a tablespoon of stewed tofu into the rice and stuffed it into his mouth: "Yeah, it's not just two years since I entered the factory."

    Mr. Li became angry when she saw his lackluster look: "Then why haven't you brought someone from home yet?"

    “…” Ming Nan was so frightened by the sudden words that he didn’t choke to death, Zhen Zhen handed him a glass of water, Ming Nan poured three gulps in a row before he came back, wiped his cough The tears that came out, Ming Nan looked at Mrs. Li aggrievedly: "Dam, you jumped on this topic too fast, can you choose a different time when you talk next time, and almost choked me."

    Old Mrs. Li was laughed at by him, she straightened up and put aside the rice bowl and chopsticks in front of him: "Tell me if there is a girl you like, don't say no to dinner. "

    Ming Nan picked up a green cucumber, dipped it in the miso, and took a bite: "What do you say?"

    "What else to say?" Mrs. Li glanced at him angrily: "If there is something corresponding, it will be good for you, and then we will see what other girls want when we get married, we are good Buy it in advance. If you don't find a suitable one, I will show you all the information quickly, and see who the girl is diligently, so that I can take you to see each other. "

    "Really?" Ming Nan's eyes lit up, he was so excited that he didn't even eat the cucumber, and his eyes stared at Mrs. Li: "Then milk, help me see each other. chant?"

    When Mrs. Li saw his appearance, she was a little worried: "You really haven't found a suitable one in the past two years? With so many girls in the same factory, why haven't you found a suitable one? "

    Ming Nan's face was a little red, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and stumblingly said: "Actually, there is a match, but I am not familiar with others, sorry to say, can you look for it? Let's see if you know that family, then let us see each other."

    Old Mrs. Li was so helpless by her grandson, she handed the chopsticks and bowl behind her to Ming Nan, and said angrily, "If you have this idea, why didn't you say it earlier? Aren't you wasting your time?"

    Ming Nan touched his nose and felt a little embarrassed: "I'm not ashamed to say it."

    Mr. Li sneered: "I usually look quite capable, but I lose the chain at a critical moment. Tell me, which girl is it, I'll go and find out for you."

    Ming Nan smiled: "It's Meng Xiaoxi, a nurse at the hydrolysis plant hospital, who is three years younger than me. Her father's name is Meng Zhiyuan in the hydrolysis plant winery."

    Zhen Zhen laughed beside her, bumped Mingnan with her shoulder, winked at him and said, "Third brother, you have inquired quite clearly."

    Old Mrs. Li took a sip of wine and looked at Li Muwu: "The winery must be getting grain from your grain station. Next time they come, you can inquire from the side." I'm afraid Li Muwu missed it, Mrs. Li taught him sentence by sentence: "When the time comes when they come, you can tell us the situation of Mingnan in our family, and ask them to ask if there are any girls who are about the same age. If you say this old Meng family, Just ask him how his family behaves, our family is not bad-hearted, and we have to find a generous and honest person when looking for in-laws, and we want to live a comfortable life in the future."

    Li Muwu nodded: "Okay, it just happened that a lot of sorghum was newly brought back, and when it came to the winery to order, I turned around and asked." Li Muwu looked at Mingnan and nodded with satisfaction: " Ming Nan has a good eye, and there is an old man in a winery that will make it easier to buy wine in the future."

    Wang Sufen glanced at him immediately: "This is not the point, you can't be confused because you want to buy wine, you can ask more."

    "I know I know." Li Muwu nodded again and again: "Lao Li in my class is familiar with the winery. I'll ask him tomorrow."

    When Ming Nan heard that what he was looking forward to was progressing so fast, Ming Nan was suddenly happy for some reason. He lowered his head and took a few mouthfuls of food, and suddenly looked up at Mrs. Li : "Honey, then quickly find someone to call me the kang qin that I used for marriage. I like the paintings drawn by my sister-in-law and her mother's mother. Can you ask her to help me draw flowers and grasses?"

    Zhen Zhen laughed when she heard it: "Third brother, you are just like my second brother, you just stare at sister-in-law's kangqin, as if you have never seen anything good."

    Ming Nan Hehe Zhile: "These kang pianos in our family are the best-looking ones of my elder brother and sister-in-law. It's festive when I look at it. I want that when I get married."

    Mr. Li looked at Ming Nan in a panic: "Are you getting married to like other girls or to get a kang piano?"

    Ming Nan chuckled: "The two things don't delay anything. Besides, if you don't get married, you have to make the whole house beautiful."

     Is it tight?

    Wang Sufen shook her head: "Her family lives in the forest, the road is difficult to walk and it is far away, our place is not very troublesome, the guards have gone to the official's house, no one Go to the forest office. Osmanthus her father has been very honest and has not done anything wrong all these years. Osmanthus her mother is both very capable and able to show off, and she has a good relationship in the management office. I heard her say that the management office is meaningless every day. After the criticism, in fact, how should I live my life? I watched her house newly renovated, and never built two more rooms not far away. I heard that she wanted to give Brother Osmanthus a daughter-in-law. "

    Mr. Li nodded after hearing this: "Since this is the case, you can send the quilts that were replaced by our house. The cotton inside has only been covered for two years and it is still very warm. The quilts are all used and not eye-catching. You don't know, her family is living a bad life now, so no one is looking for them. If they are a little bit conspicuous, they might cause trouble. "

    "It's not that bad." Wang Sufen said: "Osmanthus her mother also said the same, this mountain is full of wood and dare not build a house, this year, the people of the management office can't see it and help Zhang Luo. , I just cleaned up the house."

    Ms. Li took the last sip of the wine in the wine cup: "Tomorrow you go again, and Osmanthus will go to Anbei and tell them, and then wait for the winter when you don't work, ask Would she like to come home and help draw the kang qin?"

    Wang Sufen's face was a little uncertain: "Last time I asked her to come to the house to see the meat buns and bean buns, but she didn't come, saying that her family's ingredients were not good, and I was afraid of causing trouble for our family. It is estimated that she will be embarrassed even if she comes to paint the kang qin. She is afraid of causing trouble if she comes, and if she does not come, she is afraid that it will save the face of our family, and it will be embarrassing. I think we should not mention it at all. How can a kang qin have flowers? Mother is used to Mingnan."

    Mr. Li nodded thoughtfully: "What you are saying is that I have been confused about this matter, and we can't make Osmanthus' mother unhappy for ourselves. Then you will give her the Send the quilt, chat again, don't mention anything else."

    Wang Sufen responded, Mingnan didn't say anything when he heard that the painted kangqin would cause trouble for others, Zhen Zhen knew that what Mingnan had been thinking about all these years was the kangqin, so she came over and whispered He said to him, "Don't worry, I'll give you a few good paintings later, and then you can just buy some glass and set them up."

    Ming Nan smiled and tugged at her pigtails: "How old is your little girl, you can still draw a picture." Ming Bei finished eating a bowl of rice and went to add another: " I heard from my classmates that those who know how to draw don’t dare to draw anymore, they say it’s the rotten way of life of the capitalist class, and I see that some of our classmates go out to post big ‘character’ newspapers, and some criticize it.”

    Wang Sufen was taken aback when she heard it: "What about the paintings on the kang qin? Isn't it possible to have them?"

    "It's all right, every household has a kang piano, and most of them have paintings of flowers and birds. If the paintings are demolished, they will have to smash the glass on their heads. No one can bear it." Mingbei explained: " Besides, we all know the bottom line, and no one will go to anyone's house to make trouble."

    Wang Sufen pouted: "Other people's homes are okay, but Zhang Defu's family is not a good thing, fortunately last year Zhang Defu went to the hydrolysis factory and was caught stealing alcohol, and was locked up on the charge of digging a socialist corner. , or else Zhen Zhen Zhen would come out and go in all day, I really don't feel relieved, I'm afraid that he will carry our children away and sell them."

    Zhen Zhen almost spit out a mouthful of rice, she looked at Wang Sufen with a black face: "Mom, you've forgotten how old you are, to be honest, we don't know who wins or loses when we meet, He may not be able to carry me, I would have no problem throwing him out."

    Wang Sufen doesn't like to hear this: "You are getting older every day, don't say this everywhere, if people know that you are strong, who will dare to marry you as a wife in the future? You are not allowed to kill men when you are living a war or something."

    Zhen Zhen looked helpless: "Mom, don't worry, I will never get married before twenty-five. Besides, I don't even like people like us. It's just your daughter-in-law. She is so handsome and so cute, who can match me, right?" Seeing Wang Sufen still talking, Zhen Zhen immediately blocked her back: "Mom, don't think about me, I'm still early, Don't you think about my fourth brother? I see that he will graduate in a year, but don't be like my third brother, who has been working for several years before talking to him. "

    The Zhen Zhen brothers and sisters all know that Mingbei liked late autumn two or three years ago, and it was a very romantic love at first sight. He worked hard and was admitted to the No. 1 High School of the Hydrolysis Plant. But he didn't mention it at home, and no one of his siblings revealed to him.

     Mingbei saw Zhen Zhen turn her head towards herself, her face was sweet and worried: "Oh, don't worry about it, I won't be like my third brother, it's stupid, I like it The people still haven't said a word."

    He was happy in the Ming and Southern Dynasties: "It seems that you squeaked."

    Mingbei was speechless in one sentence. Mrs. Li looked at Mingbei for a while and laughed. Mingbei's hair stood up when she laughed, and she rubbed the chicken skin on her body. Pimple, Mingbei hurriedly assured: "When I graduate from high school, I will tell people that I won't let you worry about it."

    Lady Li nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, you can count it yourself."

    Seeing that all four grandchildren have grown up, Mingdong doesn't need to say, Mingxi doesn't know what army he went to for a year or two, except that there is no news, but he will send it home every six months A generous allowance, Mrs. Li was shocked when she heard the amount on the withdrawal slip for the first time. She thought that she had read it wrong. Catch up with the eighth-level worker of the hydrolysis plant.

    Mingxi's marriage now I just want to worry about it, but I can only work **** Mingnan and Mingbei. Mrs. Li weighed her own house and discussed with Li Muwu and his wife: "You said Do we need to build a few more rooms in our family? Although Ming Dong doesn't know when he will be able to transfer it back, since the back room is given to them, don't move it any more. Ming Nan and Ming Bei are getting married just by looking at it. Get up the house, and then buy things up, you can't decide on a marriage and then think about the house, right?"

    Wang Sufen hurried to see Li Muwu when she heard it, Li Muwu was a little unsure: "Mother, this house can get a lot of money, Mingnan and Mingbei get married and have to give dowry, how can our family have that? some money?"

    Mrs. Li crossed her legs and touched the cigarette bag: "In recent years, the food and vegetables eaten at home have basically not been paid for, and your salary has saved a lot. Besides, your elder brother and your younger brother have Send me money on a monthly basis."

    Wang Sufen hurriedly waved her hand: "The money my elder brother and fourth brother gave you is for your retirement. How can you spend it on them, that's not good."

    "Don't you care for me if I don't have the money? You won't pay for it if I'm sick?" Mrs. Li looked at Wang Sufen and Li Muwu, and saw that they shook their heads again and again. He said with a smile: "That doesn't mean that all the money will be used first. Anyway, Mu Wu's salary is in my hands. I'm in charge and I'll do what I say."

    Since Mrs. Li has made a decision, the family has negotiated to build a house after the grain store sells the autumn grains. In the past few days, they have to talk to the street and apply for a plot of land.

    A few days later, when the winery came to the grain station to pull the sorghum rice, Li Muwu hurried over and handed over a message, and the old king who purchased the winery immediately said several corresponding girls, and finally said: " We also have a master brewer surnamed Meng, whose eldest girl is just three years younger than your third child, and works as a nurse in the hydrolysis plant hospital."

    Li Muwu waited for a long time to finally get this sentence, and immediately clapped his chin excitedly: "This is a good nurse and not tired. Would you like to introduce this to us?"

    Old Wang said with a smile: "Okay, I'll set up a word for you. If Master Meng is willing, you can bring the two children to see each other."

    Meng Xiaoxi is beautiful and quick at work. Although she has only been in the hospital for half a year, many people have introduced her to her. Meng Xiaoxi also went to see a family two days ago, but as soon as she entered the house and saw more than a dozen children, she was terrified, and after a while, she followed her mother home.

    During dinner in the evening, Master Meng said with a smile: "The old man who purchased said that there is a third kid named Li in the grain store who is quite young and similar to our Xiaoxi, and he wants to match him."

    "What are the three boys doing? Aunt Meng put the dry food on the table and distributed it to several children, and asked without looking up.

    Pouring a cup of wine, Master Meng took a sip before saying, "It's from our hydrolysis plant. He graduated from high school, and his name is Li Mingnan. He is three years older than our Xiaoxi."

    Meng Xiaoxi was scooping porridge, she might get scalded when she heard this, she groaned, and quickly put down the bowl and ran cold water outside the faucet.

     

    Drying her hands with a towel, Meng Xiaoxi sat on the stool and nodded lightly: "At the end of last year, an old master of the power station was hospitalized, and Li Mingnan took care of him for a period of time."

    Aunt Meng was happy when she heard it: "Is this the right eye? Why didn't I hear you?"

    "What do I say?" Meng Xiaoxi bit her lower lip: "They didn't show that. After the old master was discharged from the hospital, I didn't see him again."

    "I guess it's a silly boy and I'm embarrassed to say it." Aunt Meng laughs: "Otherwise, there are so many people in the grain store, he has to come to the hydrolysis plant, and he specially asks the people in our winery. ."

    Master Meng patted his head, and suddenly realized: "No wonder Lao Wang said that he started talking about several old Li who didn't respond. As soon as he said Xiaoxi, he immediately agreed to look at each other, and he ran From the creek."

    Aunt Meng asked Xiaoxi about Mingnan while drinking porridge. Xiaoxi told everything she knew. Aunt Meng heard that Nanchang was very handsome and a clean and neat child. Also quite pleasant.

    Looking at the girl, she also liked someone very much. Master Meng didn't delay. He replied the next day and made an appointment to go to Lao Li's house on Sunday for a blind date.

    The four sons have grown so big, and this is the first time that a girl has come to see each other, but Wang Sufen is so nervous, she wipes the inside and outside of the house with a rag, and even goes to I bought some candy bars and oranges in the street, and looked even more nervous than Mingnan.

    On Sunday, Mingnan made a dog-like person in the morning, and he saw people halfway on the big bicycle at home. Ming Nan jumped off the bicycle, his ears flushed nervously: "Aunt Meng, Nurse Meng."

    Meng Xiaoxi blushed and nodded, Ming Nan saw Meng Xiaoxi's expression a little shy, and his heart suddenly became a lot more calm. As he walked, he introduced the situation along the road. When he got to the door of the house, before he could call someone, Mrs. Li and Wang Sufen greeted him from the house.

    As she let people into the room, Mrs. Li looked at Meng Xiaoxi, and saw that she was of medium stature, with an egg-shaped face and big eyes, which made people like her: "This is Your girl, she looks really good." Mrs. Li smiled and took Meng Xiaoxi's hand: "I heard that you are a nurse, are you tired from work?"

     

    A table has long been placed on the kang in the east room, and there are sugar cubes, fruits, and biscuits on it. Wang Sufen greeted people to come in, and went to the kitchen to wash a few bowls of honey water and serve it, smiling enthusiastically. : "The wild honey we pick in the woods is very pure. You can try it."

    Aunt Meng looked around at Old Li's house, and she saw that everything was clean and tidy, and it looked like it was often cleaned. I saw Li Mingnan riding the best bike just now. Aunt Meng looked at it. The living conditions of Old Li's family were good. There were chickens and a lot of vegetables in the yard.

    The hydrolysis factory was not near, Wang Sufen accompanied the conversation and went to the kitchen to go to Zhangluo for lunch, just soaked the mushrooms picked from the mountain, Zhen Zhen quietly carried four or five crucian carp, a A pheasant entered the house.

    Zhen Zhen washed her hands and entered the room to say hello, Aunt Meng's eyes lit up when she saw Zhen Zhen, and asked Mrs. Li, "This is your granddaughter? She's really handsome. "

    "This is my little granddaughter, her name is Zhen Zhen." When she saw Zhen Zhen, Mrs. Li immediately closed her mouth: "It's not that I praise my granddaughter, she is not only handsome but also smart, she talks and does things well. Like a little adult, you can save your mind."

    Aunt Meng nodded in agreement and said with a smile: "Aunt Li is blessed, I will wait for the blessing of my children and grandchildren in the future."

    Mr. Li hurriedly said: "If you don't ask for anything else, I'll be satisfied with seeing a few grandchildren marrying wives."

    Aunt Meng smiled knowingly, just at this moment there was the sound of a frying pan from the stove, Aunt Meng smiled and pushed Meng Xiaoxi: "Go and cook for your aunt."

    Mrs. Li was happy when she heard it: There is a door to this.

    I have seen the parents, the old Meng family has no opinion on this marriage, the old Li family attaches great importance to their children at first sight, they saw pheasant and braised crucian carp with sauce that day, all in time for the Chinese New Year It's rich, and when the girl gets married, she will definitely live a good life. After lunch, Mrs. Li didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Actually, my family's Mingnan fell in love with Xiaoxi early in the morning, but this child was too embarrassed to speak, if we hadn't asked about it, we would have been confused. It's in the dark. Two days ago, I discussed with Ming Nan's father. When next spring begins next year, we will buy a house for the Ming Nan and Ming Bei brothers, and then we will buy them new furniture. After we get married, you can come and eat at home. I'm living my own life, we don't interfere, Xiaoxi's mother, do you have any ideas?"

    Meng Auntie Le's mouth couldn't close: "Your family is all over, I have nothing else to say, I'm quite satisfied." After she finished speaking, she looked back at Xiaoxi: "Daughter, what do you think?"

    Xiaoxi lowered his head with a flushed face, and nodded slightly in Ming Nan's expectant eyes.

    The author has something to say: I think blind dates in the past are very interesting, and I also asked my grandma about her blind date. Because my grandfather is very handsome, and my grandma is ordinary and can't be ordinary, I asked her, how did you meet in the first place? My grandmother said that when he came to my house for a blind date, I told him that I would get married directly. I was crying with laughter~~~
