095 Blind Date
The national finals of "Voice of China" have not yet begun. Zhang Chen has been planning in the past few days whether to go south to Zhuang City to meet his elder sister Zhang Ling.
As mentioned earlier, in addition to the two old men, there is actually an older sister in his family. The older sister’s name is Zhang Ling, who is only three or four years older than Zhang Chen.
However, Zhang Ling has had the "demeanor" of being an elder sister since she was a child. Because she has been spoiled by Zhang Chen since she was a child and also takes good care of him.
For example, in the same year, the two siblings were admitted to key high schools in H County, a second-tier university in the province, but the family conditions were indeed difficult, so it was quite difficult to support two children to go to school at once.
Zhang Ling didn't say a word at that time, but on the day Zhang Chen received the admission notice for key high schools in the county, she packed up her bags and planned to secretly leave her hometown the next day and go to the south to work and make money for her younger brother who is better at studying to go to school.
Fortunately, when he went out the next day, he was discovered by his two old men who had woken up early, but was driven back by their father Zhang Dezheng with a wooden stick. Zhang Dezheng scolded at that time, "What do you want to do? The man is not dead yet! What's the matter with you little girl?"
"Get back! Get back to me immediately! Go to school well! I dare to run around again next time, I will discount your legs!"
After scolding, he turned around and hid in his room, crying like tears.
He felt both ashamed and distressed!
I feel sorry for my eldest daughter being so well-behaved and sensible. She has obviously been admitted to college, but because her family is limited, she actually wants to study to work to support her younger brother's schooling?
Her idea was very good, but Zhang Dezheng could not agree no matter what.
After all, in his life dictionary, there is no such thing as favoring boys over girls. Although Zhang Ling is three years older than Zhang Chen, no one stipulates that older people must sacrifice for the younger people! In his opinion, both are his good children, and both are his close relatives. It is wrong to treat anyone badly and spoil anyone too much. Therefore, he naturally cannot agree to Zhang Ling drop out of school and work to support Zhang Chen in school.
What's more, in his opinion, the responsibility of earning money to support their studies and schooling and supporting this family is all his father, so when is it her turn to take on a film like a young girl who has just grown up? Isn't this a joke?
So, from that day on, Zhang Dezheng began to work harder.
In the end, both of them did successfully finish college after several years before graduating from college to find a job.
Although Zhang Chen was not very successful, and after graduation, he could not even find a formal job within the system in order to stay in Yanjing, Zhang Ling was quite capable. After graduation, he went to work in a state-owned enterprise in Zhuang City.
Later, Zhang Chen's tuition and living expenses at the university, including the much expenses he had to open a clinic city later, was actually partially supported by Zhang Ling. Otherwise, relying solely on the little income of their father Zhang Dezheng and the acres of land at home, Zhang Chen would have to open such a small clinic in Yanjing City, where every inch of land is valuable, but he would probably have to think about it.
The reason why Zhang Chen wanted to visit Zhang Ling in Zhuang City in the past few days is actually because he has already prepared his mood and is ready to face this family that does not belong to him.
Of course, he was not mentally prepared for him to meet the two elders who were far away in the countryside.
However, it is different to meet Zhang Ling, an older sister who is in Zhuang City.
After all, they are peers, so there will not be so many difficulties when getting along. Moreover, Zhang Ling has always taken good care of him. He believes that even if he committed a "serious crime", Zhang Ling should still forgive him.
It turned out that he was ready to tell his family the fact that Xiao Xinyue existed. Because, after all, this is the closest relative of their Zhang family. If he insisted on hiding it and not letting them recognize each other, Zhang Chen felt that he was a bit too cruel!
However, the problem that Xiao Xinyue's mother Su Mi's identity is too special must always be taken seriously. Zhang Chen's plan is to only let them recognize Xiao Xinyue, but he insists on not revealing the information about the child's mother.
If they had to ask about the cause and effect, he planned to tell the story of his original experience, but he still wanted to hide Su Mi's identity, because this was also Su Mi's private affairs.
Whether to tell his family about her must be decided by Su Mi himself.
Zhang Chen’s plan is to first go to Zhuang City to meet his elder sister Zhang Ling, ask for her support and forgiveness, and then go back to the countryside to tell the two old men that it is better. At that time, the elder sister Zhang Ling will mediate and adjust, and maybe he will be spared the pain of a stick.
However, before his plan began to be implemented, an unexpected call temporarily interrupted his itinerary.
"Baby, I have asked Sister Zhao from my neighbor's house to introduce you to a girl, who also works in Yanjing."
"The girl has agreed to meet, so she made an appointment in a cafe tomorrow. I have sent the address to your phone by text message. Remember to go!"
"Then, if the conditions are almost the same, then prepare to get married! You are almost thirty, and it's time to get married!"
...
Zhang Dezheng's call came at a time, both sudden and short. Zhang Chen actually wanted to explain that he didn't want to go on a blind date, but he was helpless. The old man didn't give him a chance to speak.
Perhaps, they just knew that once they were given the opportunity to speak, they would definitely make excuses to swear. So, they simply booked the time and location of the meeting for him, and finally sent him the specific information in text messages.
"It's just a meeting, I just want to get married? I'm thinking too much."
When Zhang Chen put down the phone number in his hand, he thought helplessly. Of course, he could understand the idea of the two old men wanting to see him start a family and start a career, but he was really a little resistant to blind dates from the bottom of his heart.
Moreover, let’s talk about it, can it be achieved by looking at it? This is definitely a naive idea. Many people, even if they meet for ten or dozens of times, still have no mutual success in the end.
However, since the time and place have been decided, the two old men are so eagerly looking forward to his son's blind date, and he is not good enough to really not go there, which disappoints them and is untrustworthy! So, what else can I do? He can only calm down and wait for the blind date the next day.
