A Blind Date Guide

???? Grandma is in good spirits today. Although she doesn't talk much, Meng Yi feeds her and she eats it all. Meng Yi is very happy.

????As soon as I was happy, I told my grandma everything about a Chinese teacher I met on the Internet today.

???? After hearing this, grandma squinted and smiled: "Just like it one by one."

???? Meng Yi blushed and said, "I haven't seen a real person yet." I hope this time I won't die.

???? Grandma said slowly: "I heard that Lao Zhou next door often mentioned his grandson. His grandson seems to like boys too. Would you like him to introduce you next time?"

???? Meng Yi hurriedly said, "No need."

???? Meng Yi stayed until eight o'clock, watching grandma fall asleep before leaving the nursing home.

???? He took the bus home, and when he got off from the station at the gate of the community, he saw a familiar figure in the nearby supermarket.

????The man paid the bill at the cashier, came out of the supermarket with a dozen beers in his hand, and greeted Meng Yi first: "Teacher Meng is back."

???? Looking at the beer in his hand, Meng Yi couldn't help but frowned: "You drink so much a day?"

????Zhou Lin reacted for two seconds, remembering that he was seen when he went out to buy beer in the morning, so he explained: "Oh no, I'm a duck."

???? Meng Yi asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

???? "Beer duck." Zhou Lin said, "I boasted to Haikou that I would make it for my old man to eat, but I haven't made it until now. Will you do it?"

????Meng Yi breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and said, "I won't."

???? The two walked side by side into the community in silence. Zhou Lin lowered his head and fiddled with his mobile phone, trying to find a quick way to make a duck from it. At this time, Aunt Shen from 601 walked up to him.

???? Aunt Shen was carrying two bags of sorted garbage in her hand. When she saw the two walking together, she smiled instantly and asked loudly, "Going out on a date?"

???? The two said in unison: "No!"

???? Aunt Shen smiled very connotatively, and said with the expression of someone who has been here: "Okay, I understand, I understand."

???? After speaking, before the two of them could argue, they trotted after the garbage truck.

???? The two went up the stairs one after the other, and when they reached the fifth floor, Meng Yi said "bye" and slipped into the house.

????When you enter the door, you can smell a strong spicy aroma. It is the young couple next door cooking a small self-heating hot pot in the living room.

???? "Mr. Meng, would you like to have something to eat together?" the girl asked.

???? Meng Yi shook his head and said, "Thank you, no need."

???? Meng Yi didn't eat much for dinner, and he was actually a little hungry now, but he thought the other party should just be polite, so he politely refused.

???? Meng Yi returned to the room, sat in front of the computer, found a bag of biscuits, and colored the picture he drew last night while eating.

???? Halfway up, there was another sound of "dong dong" running upstairs.

???? Meng Yi glanced at the phone, but there was no news on it. Zhou Lin didn't ask him if he could run away today. It seems that his skin is thick enough.

???? But anyway, it was still early, so Meng Yi ignored him.

???? At this moment, the phone vibrated, and a message came in.

???? "Are you asleep?" It was from the Chinese teacher.

???? Meng Yi put down the drawing board in his hand, typed and said, "Not yet."

????"What are you doing?"

????"draw."

???? "What is the painting, can you show me?"

????"it is good."

???? Meng Yi looked down at the two cute fox dumplings on his drawing board, and suddenly felt a little bit out of place.

???? From the chat this morning, he can feel that the other party is a relatively mature and stable person, and he probably doesn't like these things.

???? Meng Yi rummaged through some previous sketches on the shelf, and finally picked out an ordinary still life picture, took a photo and sent it over.

???? The other party said: "It looks good."

???? Meng Yi felt elated after receiving the compliment.

???? The other party offered to propose, "Shall we meet?"

???? Meng Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Okay, when are you free?"

???? "How about tomorrow? What time do you leave school?"

???? Meng Yi said, "Five o'clock."

???? "We are similar, but I am the head teacher, and it will be later, about 05:30."

???? "Then I'll find you near your school."

????"it is good."

???? After agreeing on the location with the Chinese teacher, the two said good night to each other.

???? Meng Yi checked that it was not early, put down his phone, and planned to go to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for bed.

???? At this time, the phone vibrated again. Meng Yi thought that the Chinese teacher had something to say, so he quickly picked it up and looked at it.

???? It turned out that it was from Zhou Lin upstairs.

???? "My duck is ready, can you taste it for me?"

???? "I tasted it all day and my mouth was numb and I lost my sense of taste."

???? Meng Yi's first reaction when he saw this sentence was to refuse again, but at this moment, the aroma of the small hot pot in the living room outside was continuously wafting in through the crack of the door, making Meng Yi more and more hungry.

???? Meng Yi swallowed his saliva and replied "Yes".

???? Less than a minute later, Zhou Lin came down with a bowl.

???? As soon as Meng opened the door, Zhou Lin squeezed in. He couldn't wait to grab a piece of boneless duck meat and stuffed it into Meng Yi's mouth.

???? Meng Yi frowned, opened his mouth and ate with his chopsticks.

???? The girl in the living room was holding chopsticks in her mouth, and everyone looked dumbfounded: "Oh, Mr. Meng, you treat me specially. If you don't want to be treated to hot pot, you have to send it from upstairs to be delicious!"

???? Meng Yi explained while chewing the duck: "No, he is learning to cook. Let me try it for you."

???? The girl laughed and said, "Okay, I understand, I understand."

???? Meng Yi chewed and suddenly felt that this sentence seemed familiar.

????Zhou Lin asked anxiously: "How is it? Is it salty or not?"

???? Meng swallowed the meat and said, "The saltiness is just right, but the taste of alcohol is too strong. How much beer did you put?"

????Zhou Lin said: "Four listening."

???? Meng Yi: "..."

???? "It's okay, it's okay, it's fine if it's not salty. My grandpa likes to drink, so it's not a big problem. I'll send it to him tomorrow morning."

???? After Zhou Lin finished speaking, he whistled happily and went back upstairs.

???? Meng closed the door, and slammed his mouth with some unfinished thoughts. Except for the key point of the wine, the taste is really good, similar to his grandma's.

???? In the past, when his grandma was still able to see, he would often make delicious food for him. Later, his grandma lived in a nursing home, and he was too lazy to start a fire by himself. .

???? It's been a long time since anyone cooked for him, Meng Yi thought, although this person didn't cook for him specially.

???? Before going out the next day, Meng Yi specially picked out a more formal solid-colored shirt, wanting to leave a good impression on tonight's blind date.

???? He had a good feeling that today would be different from the previous blind dates.

???? Meng Yi was a little nervous. He sat in the office during the day when he was not in class, imagining many scenarios in his mind.The other party asked how to say what his parents said, and how to not be cold when there is no topic.

???? Feeling uneasy like a college graduate who is about to interview for a job.

???? After school, Meng Yi took the bus directly to the vicinity of No. [-] Middle School, and they met in an ordinary home-cooked restaurant.

???? Before Meng Yi went in, he received a message from the Chinese teacher, saying, "I've arrived. I'm wearing a light yellow polo shirt today. I'm sitting inside by the window. It's easy to recognize."

???? Meng Yihui: "Okay, I'm here too." After returning, he took a deep breath and pushed the door open.

???? As soon as Meng Yi stepped through the door, a pale yellow figure stood up by the window.

???? The distance was a bit far, but Meng Yi still caught the flash of surprise on the other party's face.
