Chapter 593 The blind date introduced by Sister Zhang
The weather in August is no different from a steamer.
After work, Sister Zhang and her colleagues were too lazy to go to the kitchen to cook, so they thought of going to the snack street to buy some ready-made braised dishes and cold dishes. Unexpectedly, they met Su Mingzhe, a subordinate who had just resigned.
She also saw Su Mingzhe and Zhang Pan leaning close to each other, so she greeted them out of habit, and then said:
"Xiao Su, is this your girlfriend? She's so pretty, and you and I can tell she's a perfect match."
"Sister Zhang, this is my new nanny."
After hearing what Sister Zhang said, Su Mingzhe did not respond with a smile as he did in the past. Instead, he laughed back with a hidden needle in his cotton wool (What kind of look is that, you think the nanny is your girlfriend?)
When she was working at the street office, Sister Zhang seemed to be very friendly with her subordinates on the surface, but in fact, she always looked down on them and looked down on them.
The most representative thing was that when the street office distributed welfare, if it was rice, flour, grain and oil, she would behave herself and share it with everyone according to the regulations.
If it was some rotten fish or shrimp, she would pretend to be generous and let a few subordinates take it away.
As for some rare and valuable things on the market, Sister Zhang would quietly take them home.
We were colleagues before, and she was our superior, so we didn't want to say anything too much just for a small thing.
After all, this kind of thing is human nature.
However, just because you don’t say it doesn’t mean you don’t understand it in your heart.
There is another incident that is particularly vivid in my memory.
Su Mingzhe's parents are both dead, and he doesn't even have any decent relatives.
Every time Sister Zhang chatted with Su Mingzhe, she would pretend to be very concerned and would ask about his well-being from time to time, like an intimate older sister.
However, when it comes to real matters, such as Su Mingzhe's single issue, Sister Zhang has always been talking big, saying that she wants to help Su Mingzhe find a partner.
As a result, two years passed, Su Mingzhe resigned from the street office, and he had never seen what the person introduced by Sister Zhang looked like.
This is the relationship between the two of them. Now that Su Mingzhe has resigned, can he still be afraid of her or respect her?
Therefore, Su Mingzhe responded to her and also wanted to tell her:
Today is different from the past, don’t look at people with the old eyes.
Sister Zhang is also a smart person. After being pushed, she looked at Su Mingzhe and the nanny Zhang Pan seriously.
Su Mingzhe went out simply today, wearing just an ordinary floral shirt, shorts, and sneakers.
These are not worth much.
However, when Sister Zhang's eyes fell on Su Mingzhe's wrist, her eyes froze.
Why does this watch look so familiar to me?
At the beginning of this year, in order to move up a level, her husband spent $200,000 to buy a watch and secretly gave it to the director of their office.
The piece Su Mingzhe is wearing on her wrist seems to be the same one her husband bought.
Look at Zhang Pan again. Although she is pretty, her shoes are cheap ones that cost only a dozen yuan, and her skirt is made by herself with fabric she bought.
Apart from that, she didn't have any jewelry on her body.
In comparison, the two really don't look like a couple.
Although Sister Zhang works at the street office and is well-informed, she is, after all, just a middle-aged woman in her forties. In her daily life, she also respects the concept of "respecting the clothes first and then the person".
After knowing that Su Mingzhe was wearing a watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, Sister Zhang immediately put on a sincere smile and apologized to Su Mingzhe:
"Xiao Su, it's Sister Zhang's fault for not seeing clearly. But you can't blame Sister Zhang for this. You've been working here for two years, and I've never seen you get so close to any girl. That's why Sister Zhang got distracted for a moment."
Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.
Seeing Sister Zhang's sincere smile, Su Mingzhe also smiled faintly and replied:
"Sister Zhang, what is our unit? It is a place to serve the people. It is not right for me to flirt with a young girl there."
People carry people in sedan chairs.
Sister Zhang praised him a few more times and took a look at Su Mingzhe. She felt that her subordinate seemed to have a big change in temperament and image compared to before.
Of course, Sister Zhang would never have thought that Su Mingzhe had a new soul in his body.
In her mind, this is the saying "Buddha relies on gold and people rely on clothes".
Su Mingzhe wears a watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, which naturally improves his temperament.
Thinking this in her heart, Sister Zhang suddenly remembered something, and asked Su Mingzhe with a smile:
"Xiao Su, you are not young anymore, and you still have some personal problems. Last time, Sister Zhang told you that she wanted to introduce you to a date. What do you think? Sister Zhang has a little girl who is really pretty and has a smart and clever personality. If you have time, can you take some time to meet her?"
"Sister Zhang, have you found it?"
Su Mingzhe raised his eyebrows and turned up the corners of his mouth.
This Zhang sister is really a snob. When she saw that she was doing well, her attitude changed 180 degrees.
The two of them had worked together for two years, but she had never introduced anyone to him.
Now that I have resigned, she has taken the initiative to come forward.
Sister Zhang said:
"Xiao Su, that girl is a student of Yanjing Fashion Institute. During the summer vacation, she worked part-time to earn money for her studies at the textile factory under our street. Sister Zhang has seen her. She is very pretty, with a good figure and good looks..."
"Then please trouble Sister Zhang to arrange a meeting time."
Although Su Mingzhe didn't believe that Sister Zhang could introduce him to a good girl, he decided to meet her just to kill time.
The two made an agreement.
Everyone said goodbye to each other and left.
Sister Zhang returned home, put the braised and cold dishes she bought on the table, and asked her family to prepare for dinner. She went into the bedroom, took out her cell phone, and called her second brother.
"Hello, brother, it's me."
Zhang's second brother received a call from his sister at noon, and asked in a worried tone:
"Little sister, why are you calling me at this time? What's the matter?" Sister Zhang heard the worry in her second brother's voice and quickly explained to him:
"Brother, didn't my sister-in-law ask me to introduce a local guy to Yan Zi a few days ago? I found one here. She's not bad, but she's a little older."
"Older? How much older?"
The second brother's voice sounded a little angry.
He thought his sister had introduced a rich man to his daughter.
Sister Zhang explained:
"This year I am thirty."
"Thirty? At this age, is this your second marriage?"
When the second brother heard the age, his tone was a little hesitant.
His daughter is only 20 years old and so cute, but she marries a 30-year-old man. It's really a pity.
However, he also knew that his family was from outside the city, a third-tier city, and if he wanted his daughter to marry in Yanjing, he couldn't expect to find a man with too good conditions.
Sister Zhang heard the hesitation in her second brother's words and quickly said:
"This person is not a second marriage. His family background is average. He has a house in the Second Ring Road. He and I used to work in the Street Office. He recently found a job in a foreign company with an annual salary of at least 500,000. I thought his conditions were good, so I planned to introduce him to Yanzi."
The second brother was still moved by his sister's words, but as a father, he still spoke again:
"Little sister, Yan Zi won't be a junior until September, so there's no rush to get married. Why don't you look for someone else for her?"
"Second brother, this condition is really good. Although Yan Zi is good-looking, her education is a bit poor. She is just a college student. She is not popular in the marriage market..."
Sister Zhang was also very tired. She knew that her second brother felt sorry for his daughter, so she was more direct and said:
"Or, you can discuss it with your sister-in-law."
Sister Zhang’s second brother loves his daughter very much, but her second sister-in-law is very patriarchal.
If her second sister-in-law were allowed to speak, she would only ask one question, which is how much the bride price is.
So, when the second brother heard his sister asking him to ask his wife's opinion, he immediately sighed:
"Then let's arrange a meeting and let them get to know each other first."
When Sister Zhang heard that her second brother agreed to her arrangement, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was confident in her own vision and saw that Su Mingzhe was a high-quality potential stock and was absolutely worthy of her niece.
However, she was just an aunt after all, and could not make the decision for her niece.
Now, with the consent of her second brother, Sister Zhang is ready to arrange this blind date.
After lunch, Sister Zhang went to the textile factory staff dormitory and met her niece Zhang Yan.
Just as she introduced her to Su Mingzhe, Zhang Yan was pretty, charming and pretty, and indeed a beauty.
However, there are many beautiful girls who want to marry into Yanjing, but not everyone can marry into a good family.
During the two years that Zhang Yan studied at the Fashion Institute, many boys pursued her, but those boys were either scumbags who pursued her just for fun, or they came from ordinary families and were not good-looking.
Zhang Yan’s academic performance is average, but she has high emotional intelligence and a broad vision.
Faced with such suitors, Zhang Yan naturally rejected them all with a smile.
Sister Zhang came to her niece's dormitory and walked in directly through the door.
"swallow."
"Auntie."
When Zhang Yan saw her aunt coming to see her, she quickly got down from the wooden bed and greeted her with a smile.
She came to Yanjing to study, actually with the intention of seeking refuge with her aunt.
Therefore, she usually behaves very well when dealing with her aunt.
Sister Zhang didn't waste any words and told her the purpose of her visit. She was afraid that her niece would be arrogant and look down on Su Mingzhe's age, so she said to her:
"I've already talked to your parents about this. You should at least get in touch with them."
Zhang Yan naturally disliked the fact that the person she was introducing was thirty years old, but facing the threat from her aunt, she could only force a smile and nodded helplessly:
"Don't worry, aunt, I will go to meet you."
Sister Zhang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her niece agreed.
The textile factory where Zhang Yan works has average performance and has two days off on weekends.
Let’s set the meeting time for tomorrow, Saturday.
The time is easy to arrange.
When arranging the meeting place, the aunt and niece had a slight disagreement.
Sister Zhang originally wanted to arrange for us to stay in a cafe next to the street office.
In this way, it would be convenient for Sister Zhang to skip work and help to calm the situation, so as to prevent Su Mingzhe from bullying her niece, or her niece from bullying her.
However, Zhang Yan said that she doesn't like drinking coffee.
Sister Zhang had no choice but to give options such as cinemas and parks.
In the end, Zhang Yan decided to meet at a gymnasium near the park.
This option is very interesting. Zhang Yan chose this place mainly to see if the 'old man' is in good health.
After all, this kind of thing is related to the "happiness" of the rest of your life.
