Chapter 17: Bowed
Faced with Director Lian who looked like he might get angry at any time, Chu Heng still gave in and succumbed helplessly to his lustful power.
He was not afraid of being beaten, but he was afraid of making the old man angry.
Besides, even the old man is kind-hearted and went to great lengths to tell the girl that we can’t let people’s work go in vain.
I'll just go through the motions, and then I'll say I'm not interested, and no one can find anything wrong with it.
As for old man Lian's kindness, I can just wait and find opportunities to repay him in the future.
Look, this is a joke. Not only is he being forced to go on a blind date, but he also owes a favor. Who can he ask to reason with?
Chu Heng couldn't help but sigh again, saying that he had a bad life.
Actually, he was misled by Old Man Lian.
The person the old man introduced to him really didn’t take much effort.
Sijiucheng is big even if it is said to be big, and small even if it is said to be small.
Many people still know Chu Heng, the handsome man of Sanliang Store.
A handsome man with a lot of money, both parents are dead, and he has such favorable conditions. He is rated very high in the hearts of many aunts. He will be talked about for a long time, talking about his work, and talking about his Family, discuss how high the bridge of his nose is...
The girl from the cotton spinning factory who was introduced to him, her name is Han Yunwen, she is the director of the Propaganda Department, and she is also a very proud boss. Originally, she did not agree. Those who are on a blind date intend to fall in love freely.
But when she heard that it was the handsome guy from Sanliang Store whom she had heard about for a long time, she agreed without even thinking about it.
If not for anything else, the girl just took a liking to Chu Heng’s favorable conditions as he had no father or mother.
The reason is simple.
The girl has an eldest brother who married a very aggressive wife, but her mother is not a light-hearted person either. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would have quarrels from time to time, which would cast a shadow on the girl. I was worried. I will be like a sister-in-law and have trouble getting along with my future mother-in-law.
This time, she finally met a man who didn’t have any old people in his family. His appearance was said to be not bad, so she thought about trying to get to know him. If they succeeded, it would save her worries in the future.
Time passes minute by minute, and it’s time to get off work in a blink of an eye.
Throughout the afternoon, the old man Lian cast cryptic looks at Chu Heng several times, letting him experience it for himself.
But Chu Heng, who was not good at making friends, didn't read anything in his eyes and thought the old man was having trouble with his eyes.
Seeing that it was time to get off work, the old man finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked him angrily: "I said, are you going to go empty-handed?"
"The blind date is over again. Why should I buy something if I'm not looking at my father-in-law?" Chu Heng, who was thinking about how to politely refuse the blind date girl, came back to his senses when he heard this and looked at him with some confusion.
"Why don't you treat me like a human being?" Old Man Lian pointed at his wrinkled old face, blowing his beard and staring: "You are the leader no matter what I say, this is your first time Come to my house, why don’t you bring me something? Where can I put this old face?”
Men, don't fight for this face, especially an old man like him who is about to retire. He loves face very much and is afraid that others will say that he is old and can no longer do it outside.
He originally thought that Chu Heng, who was usually so arrogant, would get some good things to make him look good in the courtyard, but he did not expect that this kid had no awareness at all!
He was so hurt that he could only lick his old face and tell the truth.
"What should I do? I have already prepared it. This old man is really interesting. He even asked me about it himself." Chu Heng had been thinking about blind dates all day long, but he never thought of the door-to-door ceremony. Stubble.
But it doesn’t matter, we have stock in the warehouse.
I saw him pretending to put his hand into his backpack, and took out two bottles of cans, two bottles of Zephyr wine, and a pack of dried mushrooms from the warehouse. He curled his lips and said, "Are you satisfied? I'll pack ten kilograms of noodles for you later. I'll get enough." Four door-to-door gifts, including everything you need."
These are real good things in this era. How can the old man be dissatisfied, but he still has some doubts: " When did you buy it? Why didn't I see it? ""You didn't see much." Chu Heng didn't bother to make excuses, stood up and walked out: "Please pack it up, I'll get the noodles."
"Hurry up, don't wait until we get home, the girls are here." Even the old man didn't mean to refuse at all, his whole face turned into a chrysanthemum smile.
If someone else gives you a gift, he will never accept it.
But if it were Chu Heng, he would not be polite at all.
Let’s not talk about his relationship with Chu Jianshe. Let’s just talk about Chu Heng’s usual coquettishness. The bastard eats rice and white noodles, and the meat is never cut off. The old man feels sorry for taking advantage of him.
It is only natural that younger generations should respect their elders.
Chu Heng walked slowly to the front room and saw that Sun Mei and the others had begun to finish the work. He hurriedly walked over and took out the money: "Aunt Sun, you are tired, please give me ten pounds of white noodles."
“Can you You will really cause trouble for your aunt." Sun Mei was reluctant, but her hands were not idle. She took the money ticket and gave it to Ni Yinghong, then turned to Chu Heng and asked: "Where is the bag? Come quickly, I will fill it up for you and return it. I have to clean up.”
"I don't have one, please find one for me."
Chu Heng swallowed hard and explained with a smile: "I'm going to the director's house for a blind date right now. I can't go empty-handed, right? I'm in a grocery store. I bought three things, but I couldn’t make up four, so I decided to buy some white flour.”
"Xiao Chu is just in trouble, and he does things well." Sun Mei praised with a smile, and then asked with a gossipy face: "Which girl? What unit?"
After hearing the news, several aunties nearby also came over, like a bunch of curious babies.
Chu Heng was helpless at their enthusiasm for eating melon: "The director didn't say, I will report to everyone when I go to work tomorrow."
"Okay, if it works out, I'll get wedding candy tomorrow." Sun Mei was sincerely happy for him, and she even "accidentally" pretended to be a little extra for him when she was pretending.
When she handed the bag to Chu Heng, she winked, meaning: I packed an extra pound for you, so don’t tell anyone.
Chu Heng understood, with a polite smile on his face: I will definitely bring candy tomorrow.
Sun Mei frowned: What do you mean?
Chu Heng smiled with eight teeth, nodded and said: No problem, bring toffee.
Then he returned to the office with the bag, leaving Sun Mei alone who was confused.
After waiting for a while, it was time to get off work.
After Chu Heng completed the final handover, he took a few things and set off with Old Man Lian.
The two chatted and soon arrived at the place.
Even the old man lived in a large courtyard, which was as shabby as Chu Heng’s.
His family lived in the west wing of the central courtyard. There were only three rooms, but there were more than a dozen people, old and young, living there. It was really crowded.
The old man’s wife’s surname is Zhao. She has silver hair and a kind face. She looks much more comfortable than the old man.
When Chu Heng arrived at the old man’s house, there were many people sitting in the house. Except for Grandma Zhao, his son and daughter-in-law were all there. Seven or eight grandchildren stared at the can in his hand with their fingers in their mouths. Chu Heng was under great pressure.
He quickly handed the hot potato to Grandma Zhao: "Grandma, I don't know what you like, so I just brought you something. Don't dislike it."
"You Come here, kid. What else can you bring?" Grandma Zhao took it and put it aside with a smile. She looked at Chu Heng up and down and nodded with satisfaction: "This kid is really handsome."
"I'm just an ordinary person." Chu Heng smiled modestly, turned his head and glanced at the large group of children in the room, thought for a while, put his hand into his bag, and took out a large handful of fruit candies.
