Chapter 649 and 650 Blind Date
Chapter 649 650. Blind Date Scene
Yue Wenxuan's words made Sister Guo very happy. "With your words, my worries about you are not in vain. Xiao Zeng respects me very much, and I still have some face in her eyes, so I was able to convince her.
With this experience, I'm sure you can guess how much Xiao Zeng resists blind dates.
In the past year, many people introduced her to potential partners, but Xiao Zeng rejected them all. She didn't even want to meet them. This time, I had to talk her out of it before she finally agreed. "
At this point, Sister Guo took a sip of hot tea. She thought it was just ordinary tea, but unexpectedly it smelled so fragrant. It was obviously a very good tea.
She has some appreciation of tea, but she started drinking tea after retirement, so her appreciation is not very high. She could only tell that what she was drinking was Maojian.
"Is this Maojian you're brewing for me? I've had it before, but it wasn't as fragrant as this."
"This is the first harvest of Xinyang Maojian, and it was specially sent to me by a local friend. I have always been reluctant to drink it. If it weren't for the distinguished guests coming today, I would not be willing to take it out to show off."
"Well, I came here today. Not only can I eat dumplings, but I can also drink such good tea."
Sister Guo originally wanted to ask for a box, but thinking that this was the top-quality tea sent to Yue Wenxuan by a friend, and that he definitely didn't have much, she didn't dare to ask.
Although she didn't ask for it, Yue Wenxuan took this opportunity to say, "Since Sister Guo thinks it's okay, then take two boxes with you when you leave. I still have a little stock, and I don't have any more, so I can only give you two boxes as a token of my appreciation."
"Then I won't be polite with you. The tea is really delicious and I like it very much." Although tea is rare, it cannot fill the stomach, so Sister Guo did not be polite with Yue Wenxuan.
Sister Guo was very optimistic about Yue Wenxuan and Zeng Danling as a couple. In order to successfully bring them together, she gave a detailed introduction to Zeng Danling's personality and hobbies.
After saying this, he reminded her again: "Xiao Zeng was originally a warm and cheerful child, but after these experiences, he has become less talkative. When you meet, you must take the initiative to find topics to talk about, and don't let things get awkward."
"Don't worry, I'm already old enough, I'm sure the atmosphere won't be dull. Even if Xiao Zeng is not satisfied, that's fine, just think of it as making another friend, there's nothing wrong with that."
After all, there is a big age gap between the two, so Sister Guo is still a little worried, but she has done everything she can. Whether it will succeed or not depends on whether the two are destined to be together.
Sister Guo continued, "I have already made an appointment with Xiao Zeng. You should go to the library to meet her tomorrow morning. If she is not disgusted by you, you can invite her to a restaurant for dinner. You can use this opportunity to communicate with each other and deepen your impression of her.
After meeting, if she has no intention of continuing the relationship, she will not go to the restaurant with you.
After all, she is a girl and has had such unfortunate experiences. You should understand my arrangement, right?"
"I understand. Xiao Zeng is a girl after all. If she doesn't want to continue the relationship, that's her right."
Whenever a man and a woman want to date, appearance is the most important factor. After all, they have never met each other. If they cannot accept each other's appearance after meeting, then there is no need to take the next step.
Yue Wenxuan himself actually thought the same. If Zeng Danling's appearance did not meet his standards, he would not compromise and would definitely refuse her tactfully.
In other words, he believed Sister Guo's introduction and thought she would not exaggerate, so he did not mention his requirements for the woman's appearance in front of Sister Guo.
The two chatted for a while, and the third child pushed the door and walked in. Since Yue Wenxuan came back, the third child still went back to his father's house for lunch at noon as before.
The third brother was a little surprised to see a guest coming to the house, and a stranger at that.
Yue Wenxuan quickly introduced Sister Guo: "Sister Guo, this is the third child in our family. He always comes to my place for lunch."
"He's a very energetic young man. His height and appearance are similar to yours. You can tell at first glance that he's a good guy." Sister Guo praised.
Yue Wenxuan introduced Sister Guo's identity to his son, and the third son quickly spoke up to greet her.
After a brief greeting, Yue Wenxuan said, "Let's have dumplings for lunch today. I've already made them. Go turn on the kerosene stove and make some mashed garlic while you boil the water."
The third child seldom cooks and has basically no cooking skills, but he has no problem cooking dumplings.
After the hot dumplings were served, the three of them sat down at the table. Yue Wenxuan asked, "Sister Guo, it's a rare opportunity to eat dumplings. Would you like to have a drink? We have both white and red wine at home. Which one do you like?"
"I don't like drinking any of that. We've been together for a month, and you've ever seen me drink. I never drink at all. If you want to drink, let the third brother accompany you. I'll just eat dumplings." Sister Guo did not have the habit of drinking.
"Forget it, I'm not addicted to alcohol, let's just eat dumplings."
Sister Guo picked up a dumpling and put it in the vinegar bowl, dipped it in some mashed garlic, tasted it, and praised it:
"It's actually pork and celery stuffing. How much meat did you put in it? It smells so good!"
"I managed to get together two taels of meat. It's not a lot, but the main thing is that the stuffing I made is delicious." Yue Wenxuan was not modest at all.
"You really made a good dumpling stuffing. I'm not exaggerating. It tastes so good." Sister Guo praised repeatedly. "I've eaten dumplings in big restaurants before, and not just once or twice. None of them tasted as good as your dumplings. I'll have to learn more from you in the future. Even if I can learn a little bit of your tricks, I'll be satisfied."
In front of the third brother, Sister Guo didn't mention the blind date at all.
After all, she is over sixty years old and has rich social experience. Even if Yue Wenxuan did not specifically tell her, she would not reveal anything before the blind date is successful.
In this era, when elderly people want to remarry, their children often oppose it rather than support it.
If Yue Wenxuan's marriage is successful, Sister Guo will have to personally persuade Yue Wenxuan's children and do a good job of persuading them. She has experience in this area, so she has the confidence.
But this is something that happens after the blind date is successful. If the blind date fails, she won’t have to worry about it.
Yue Wenxuan made 110 dumplings, and not a single one was left as they were all eaten by the three of them.
He eats and drinks well every day and has enough nutrition, so his appetite is naturally not big. Twenty or so meals are enough for one person.
Although Sister Guo was an old lady and had rested well in the sanatorium for a month, her physical deficiency had not been completely recovered. Her appetite was much larger than Yue Wenxuan's, and she ate more than thirty dumplings by herself.
The remaining fifty dumplings were eaten by the third brother alone. Even though he ate so much, he still felt a little hungry. If there were more dumplings, he felt that he could eat twenty more. Today, Sister Guo was present. There were three people eating together, and they made 110 dumplings, which was already a lot. This was the standard for entertaining guests.
After lunch, Sister Guo drank a cup of tea. Before leaving, Yue Wenxuan forced two boxes of Xinyang Maojian tea into her hands. She went out happily.
The next morning, Yue Wenxuan rode his bicycle to the provincial library.
Yue Wenxuan had a library card, so he casually borrowed a book called "Luancheng Collection of Su Wendigong" and walked to the window seat.
Sure enough, there was a book on the agreed seat. Yue Wenxuan picked up the book and placed it on the table. After sitting down, he opened the "Luancheng Collection of Su Wendigong" that he had just borrowed and began to read it word by word.
Yue Wenxuan was very focused when reading, and before he knew it, more than an hour had passed.
"Excuse me, is this Comrade Yue Wenxuan?" A voice came from the other side, interrupting Yue Wenxuan's thoughts.
Yue Wenxuan looked up and saw a young girl standing outside. Her skin was extremely fair and tender, which was rarely seen in that era. Her facial features were delicate and her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque. No matter what era it was, she was a rare beauty.
The girl was quite tall, even if she was not 1.7 meters tall, she should be close to it. She wore a light blue waist-hugging short-sleeved floral shirt and a dark blue long skirt. She stood there gracefully, as quiet and intoxicating as a blooming blue lotus.
When he saw this girl for the first time, Yue Wenxuan couldn't help but flash a touch of surprise in his eyes. Although he believed Sister Guo's evaluation of the girl, he didn't expect Zeng Danling to be a goddess-level beauty.
Although Sister Guo is already over 60 years old and has met many people in her life, information is not smooth in this era. Even if she is old, how many people can she have met? Yue Wenxuan believes that Zeng Danling will be a beauty, but his expectations are not high. He will be satisfied if her appearance can be above 80 points.
It was not until I saw Zeng Danling in person that I realized that she is actually a goddess-level beauty. If I were to give her a score, it would be at least over 90 points.
Yue Wenxuan was shocked when he saw Zeng Danling for the first time. The same was true for Zeng Danling.
Zeng Danling left work early and came to the reading room to look for her blind date for today.
Seeing Yue Wenxuan studying attentively in the agreed seat, a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes, and she even suspected that today's blind date might have sat in the wrong seat.
She knew that the blind date was already fifty years old, and the man at the agreed position looked to be no more than forty years old. This man had three-dimensional features and a strong appearance, and his appearance was even more outstanding than that of a movie star.
Although he was only wearing a simple short-sleeved white shirt, he looked like a green cypress or pine tree. He really couldn't believe that a fifty-year-old man not only did not look old, but also had the vigor and vitality of a young man. This made her feel more and more that she might have recognized the wrong person.
Zeng Danling stood there hesitating for a moment, but finally mustered up the courage to step forward and ask.
Yue Wenxuan smiled and said, "I am Yue Wenxuan, you are Comrade Zeng Danling, right?"
I didn't recognize the wrong person!
Zeng Danling was originally very resistant to today's blind date and had already made plans to politely refuse, but at this moment she changed her mind.
She said, "I am Zeng Danling."
After saying this, she didn't know how to start again because she suddenly changed her mind.
Yue Wenxuan has always had a positive attitude towards this blind date, so he naturally would not let the situation become awkward, and immediately said:
"I was so absorbed in reading that I didn't realize it was already noon.
On the way to the library, I saw a pretty good restaurant nearby. I heard that the food in this restaurant is pretty good, but I never had the chance to try it. Today is a good opportunity for me to try it. Do you think it's convenient?"
Zeng Danling calmed down and said, "Comrade Yue has come so far, so I'll treat you."
"It's all right. Can you leave work now?"
"I've asked for some time off, so I can go now."
Yue Wenxuan picked up two books and handed the one on the stool to Zeng Danling, saying, "I have read this "Selected Tang Poems" several times. Do you like reading poetry?"
Zeng Danling took the book in her hands and said, "I majored in classical literature in college. This book is a must-read. I like to read it when I have nothing to do."
"When I first entered school, I was still studying in a private school. The teacher who taught me was quite talented and often flipped through this "Selected Tang Poems". At that time, I was very interested in this book in his hand. After I had a basic knowledge of Chinese characters, I often flipped through it secretly."
Zeng Danling had profound attainments in poetry, and Yue Wenxuan's topic was exactly her strong point, so she naturally started a conversation with Yue Wenxuan.
Yue Wenxuan has lived for several lifetimes and has a photographic memory. His attainments in literature and poetry are definitely not comparable to those of ordinary people.
Although poetry is not Yue Wenxuan's specialty, compared with Zeng Danling, Yue Wenxuan's profound accumulation in poetry is very obvious.
No matter how obscure the poems Zeng Danling mentioned, Yue Wenxuan could always pick up on them, and his words were always meaningful, and he could even extend the topic. Listening to his extensive citations, Zeng Danling looked at him with eyes full of brilliance from time to time.
For the first date, of course, you have to choose a good place. Yue Wenxuan led Zeng Danling into Cuihulou. Cuihulou is a local high-end restaurant with a very elegant environment. Yue Wenxuan specifically asked for a private room upstairs so that he would not be disturbed by other guests.
"Danling, this restaurant focuses on local specialties. If you have any dishes you want to eat, don't be polite to me, just order them."
"I already said it's my treat, so I can't let you spend money. You should just order the food."
Yue Wenxuan did not argue with Zeng Danling over this trivial matter. "It's a rare opportunity to have a meal, so I won't be polite. You treat me this time, and I'll treat you back next time."
This time it was Zeng Danling who paid, and as a man, Yue Wenxuan had to treat her back, which gave them a reason for the next date.
Since it was a local specialty, Yue Wenxuan took a quick look at the menu and ordered two dishes, namely: sweet and sour carp and scallion-fried sea cucumber.
These two dishes were enough for two people, and Zeng Danling added her favorite dish, water chestnuts in milk soup.
