classmate engagement

In the past two days, Jiang Muping deliberately took the time to go home.After dinner, the family watched TV in the living room, and Mother Jiang sat down beside Jiang Muping with her mobile phone.

Seeing that the tattoo artist introduced by Jiang Muping and Li Sizhi had nothing to say, Mother Jiang wanted to introduce other people to Jiang Muping.

"Mu Ping, the tattoo artist that Sizhi introduced to you before, did you two fail?" Jiang's mother unlocked the phone screen and opened the photo album, "Yesterday a girl in the design institute introduced someone to me, look look?"

Li Sizhi leaned on the sofa and ate pineapple. Hearing this, he looked at Mother Jiang and joked with a smile: "Auntie, you are prying my corner."

Mother Jiang gave her a gouged look with a smile: "The more you live, the less you can talk."

Jiang's mother raised the mobile phone to Jiang Muping's eyes: "Look, she looks very energetic, a little younger than you, and just returned from studying for a Ph.D. abroad this year."

Li Sizhi leaned over, holding a piece of pineapple in his mouth: "This must be several years younger than Mu Ping."

"29, it's okay. I'm a medical student, and I'm still practicing in a hospital, in your uncle's hospital."

Li Sizhi took another piece of pineapple into his mouth, stared at the person in the photo and sized it up carefully, he looked quite upright, but still a lot worse than Chengyan.

Thinking this way in my heart, I definitely can't say that in my mouth, and I have to give the old man face no matter what.

"It looks quite upright." Li Sizhi said.

"Yeah, I think it's pretty good too." Mother Jiang flicked the screen and continued to turn back, "But it's still a bit worse than the kid you introduced."

Li Sizhi smiled: "You said Chengyan?"

"That's right," Mother Jiang turned her head to look at Li Sizhi, "That child looks pretty, like a star. I think that child's appearance is too outstanding, so Mu Ping doesn't like it."

"Where, Mu Ping likes that kind." Li Sizhi gave Jiang Muping a meaningful look, "Auntie, you don't know your son too well."

Jiang's mother really didn't understand her son's taste. Subconsciously, she always thought that Jiang Muping liked the kind of well-behaved, upright boy; Take care of your beautiful boy.

Jiang Muping hasn't had a chance to intervene in the drama of two women.

Mother Jiang shifted her gaze to Jiang Muping: "Really?"

Jiang Muping nodded: "Well, I like the ones like Chengyan."

Mother Jiang froze holding the phone, glanced at the photos on the screen, and felt a bit in a dilemma: "Then this..."

Jiang's father on the side said, "How do you know if you don't like it if you haven't met him before? I think this kid is pretty good, with a good family background and a high degree—"

"Mom, Dad, I have something to tell you."

Father Jiang nodded and said, "Say it."

"I'm going to marry Chengyan."

There was a sudden silence in the living room, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were both stunned, and a piece of pineapple that Li Sizhi just picked up fell into the fruit plate.

At that moment, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother didn't even have any expression on their faces, and Jiang's father was dumbfounded for a long time before opening his mouth: "What did you say?"

"I plan to marry Chengyan, and Chengyan is the tattoo artist Sizhi introduced to me."

"Jiang Muping, did I hear you right?" Li Sizhi was very surprised, "What happened these days? What did I miss?"

Jiang's mother calmed down a little: "Mu Ping, are you kidding your parents?"

"No, I won't joke about this kind of thing. I'm also here to ask for your opinions today."

"This...it's too sudden." Mother Jiang hadn't recovered yet, "Why so sudden..."

"Jiang Muping," Li Sizhi gave Jiang Muping a thumbs up, "You really impress me, it's an eye-opener."

"Dad, Mom, what do you think?"

Mother Jiang had mixed feelings of joy and sorrow, she was a little happy despite being shocked, she asked Jiang Muping: "Have you really thought about it?"

"Think about it, if you have no objections, you can start planning for the marriage right away."

"I..." Jiang's mother glanced at Jiang's father, "I don't have any objections, as long as you think it over."

Li Sizhi leaned over to Jiang Muping's side, poked his arm, and said with a smile, "Why didn't you get married late, but also married quickly? You are beyond my expectation, Professor Jiang."

Li Sizhi suddenly guessed another possibility, she leaned close to Jiang Muping's ear, and asked in a low voice, "You didn't have sex with him on impulse, did you marry him just to be responsible?"

Li Sizhi's question made Jiang Muping find it funny, as if he was so unbearable and so upright.

"They are all adults. Do we have to get married if we have a relationship?" Jiang Muping also lowered his voice and answered her.

"Mu Ping." Father Jiang shouted, standing up, "Follow me to the study."

"Yes." Jiang Muping also stood up.

In the study, the father and son sat facing each other.

Father Jiang spoke first: "What do you think about this? You know that your mother and I are not in a hurry for you to find a partner, and we don't require you to start a family."

"I know."

"You are not too young now. Your mother is worried about introducing someone to you because she is afraid that there will be no one around you when you get old." Father Jiang said earnestly, "We will all leave in the future, so what if you are left alone? Well, your mother doesn't care at all whether you find someone or not, all she thinks about is your future.

"There's nothing wrong with living alone, anyway, you can afford to support yourself, and your mother and I have no problem with whatever decision you make.

"You don't need to sacrifice your marriage to meet your parents' expectations.

"Dad, I know all about it." Jiang Muping felt a little heavy in his heart. He didn't know that he had relied on his parents' tolerance and self-will for many years.

Most of his classmates of the same age are already married and have children. Although he has his own way of life, he has dealt blows to his parents one after another. When he came out of the closet when he was young, his father was very angry and liked men. Forget it, now that his parents accept the reality and the same-sex marriage policy is passed, he still hasn't started a family at this age.

His father and mother never put pressure on him, and he also hoped that they would understand that he had never been kidnapped by family affection or bound by their love.Because of them, he lives at ease.

But the love for parents always becomes more and more difficult to express with age.

"Dad, in fact, before this, I never thought about getting married."

Jiang's father frowned: "What do you mean, I didn't say that, your mother and I never thought of forcing you."

"I made a future for myself when I was 30 years old, but now I have changed my mind. I want to plan diagenesis into my life."

"What's the reason?"

Jiang Muping didn't speak, but there was no particular reason, he just couldn't forget the lonely blankness in Cheng Yan's eyes when he watched Lin Weijing leave at the venue that day.Cheng Yan seemed to need a home, and he could give him this home.

"Not yet. I should find the answer after I get married." Jiang Muping said.

"You are fooling around."

"Do you not agree to our marriage?"

"We don't interfere with your decision, as long as you don't regret it." Jiang's father pondered for a moment, and said: "People still need to meet, you should make an appointment."

"it is good."

Tian Chengyan was working in the workshop, when he suddenly heard Zhu Yu calling him outside: "Teacher."

Cheng Yan ignored him, Zhu Yu walked into the room and knocked on the door, and whispered, "Teacher, that professor is here."

Cheng Yan turned his head, and Zhu Yu said again: "The surname is Jiang, Professor Jiang, the one who went on a blind date with you."

"Ouch," the client who was lying on the bed turned back, "Boss, you have a date, and I want to introduce my buddies to you."

Zhu Yu laughed: "My teacher hasn't gotten married with him yet, he just had a blind date."

"Really?" The client raised his head, "Then it seems that my buddies still have a chance."

Cheng Yan glanced at Zhu Yu, and said in a deep voice, "Shao Hu Lie Lie. What about others?"

Zhu Yu still smiled: "You mean Professor Jiang? He's waiting outside."

"You ask him to wait for me for another 10 minutes, soon." Cheng Yan ordered, his hands kept moving, and he hooked the lines steadily.

"okay."

After finishing the tattoo, Cheng Yan handed over the follow-up work to the assistant, took off the latex gloves, took off the mask, sorted out the messy hair, and walked out of the workshop.

Jiang Muping sat on the sofa and looked at his mobile phone, Chengyan walked over: "Why are you here?"

Jiang Muping raised his head, there was fine sweat on Chengyan's forehead, the tip of his nose was red, and there was a light mark on his cheek by the edge of the mask.

Jiang Muping got up and walked in front of Chengyan, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped the sweat from Chengyan's forehead, Chengyan's body froze, and he took a step back reflexively.

Jiang Muping stopped in mid-air and said, "After getting married, you may do this kind of thing often, and you need to get used to it in advance."

"A lot of people are watching." Cheng Yan couldn't hold back his old face.

Jiang Muping glanced around, and the people in the shop were indeed looking at them with great interest. Fortunately, their conversations were quiet, otherwise the other tattoo artists in the studio would hear words such as "marriage". I'm afraid I won't be able to clean up today.

"Then you wipe it yourself?" Jiang Muping didn't expect Cheng Yan to be so thin-skinned, and wanted to laugh a little.

It was still the beige handkerchief from before, this time Chengyan saw the word "Ping" embroidered on it, and when he took it, he couldn't help but pursed his lower lip.

"Do you have time recently? My parents want to meet you."

Cheng Yan was taken aback: "Did you tell them?"

"Well, it's time to meet the parents."

Cheng Yan paced back and forth for two steps, showing a bit of anxiety in his steps: "Go to my office and talk."

Cheng Yan closed the door of the office, and the noisy voice was blocked from the door. He asked Jiang Muping, "What did they say?"

"They have no objection, they said they want to meet with you."

Cheng Yan nodded in a daze, and asked again: "What do your parents like?"

"No need to buy anything, they don't lack anything."

"It's a courtesy."

What Cheng Yan said made sense, Jiang Muping smiled: "I don't know what they like."

"Your son is..." Cheng Yan couldn't help laughing, "Does your dad usually like to drink?"

"My dad doesn't drink. He's a doctor and has always been abstaining from alcohol. My mom likes it. She likes to drink before going to bed."

Cheng Yan nodded: "Then I'll buy some tea for your dad? Does he like tea?"

"Okay."

"Are you taking Lin Weijing?" Jiang Muping asked.

Diagene shook his head.

"why."

Cheng Yan said something against his will in a flat tone: "Strictly speaking, he cannot be regarded as my family."

Jiang Muping can probably guess why Chengyan always has a lukewarm attitude towards Lin Weijing. Zhu Yu and Lin Weijing have somewhat similar looks and personalities. more closely.These can be seen on the bright side. As for what Chengyan thinks, only he knows.

"I was the one who abandoned him back then. I'm not qualified to bargain with the Lin family, and I don't want to get involved in their current life."

The Lin family and his wife treated Lin Weijing very well, and they were also very polite to Cheng Yan. Because of this, Cheng Yan was even more reluctant to set foot in Lin Weijing's life.To Lin and his wife, he has always been an outsider, and no one would want an outsider to share their child's love.

"You always do this, it's not fair to him." Jiang Muping said.

Cheng Yan looked up at him.

"I think he knows everything, he's a good boy."

Cheng Yan lowered his head, took a deep breath, and his eyes suddenly became sore: "But I'm not a good brother."

Jiang Muping patted him on the head lightly: "A bad brother will not support him to go to college."

The student's family information, Jiang Muping, has very detailed information. He married Cheng Yan in a flash, so he wouldn't throw himself into the cage of marriage without knowing anything.

He is bad.

As far as Jiang Muping knew, Lin Weijing's adoptive parents were not in a good financial situation. His father was a cook and his mother was an elementary school teacher. They resigned early because of illness and never worked again.From junior high school to high school, Lin Weijing went to well-known local private schools. With the little salary earned by Lin's father as a cook, and the usual medical expenses for Lin's mother, Lin Weijing can afford these things. School is almost impossible.

It is self-evident who has been silently providing funds for him during this period.

Chengyan's hair is very soft, and his eyes looking up at Jiang Muping are also very soft. Jiang Muping's hand relaxed a little, and slowly moved to his ear, gently stroking his hair.

Cheng Yan's ears seemed to be very hot, and the heat was transmitted to Jiang Muping's palm through his slightly curly hair.

Cheng Yan's expression was a little unnatural, but his behavior was obedient and he remained motionless.He asked: "Meet your parents, do I need to change my hairstyle? It feels a bit indecent now."

It's true that Chengyan tends to give people an impression of indecency, mainly because he is so beautiful and likes to groom himself, he looks like the kind of prodigal son who is very seductive and experienced in love; but Jiang Mu Ping knew that he was actually very serious in his bones—for example, now, Cheng Yan was as stiff as a mummy.

"It's okay." Jiang Muping let go of his hand, "My parents are not so rigid."

"Yeah." The mummy finally relaxed, as if she had been pardoned.
