Hearing this, Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "I'll send the letter soon."
Meng Yinyin said "oh", not at all curious about what letter Lu Chen was going to send, or to whom, she just said: "Then I'll wait for you outside the post office!"
Anyway, sending a letter can be done quickly and won’t take much time.
Lu Chen felt relieved when he saw that she didn't seem to intend to dig deeper.
"Yeah, I'm quick."
After saying that, the two went directly to the post office.
The town that Lu Chen brought Meng Yinyin to was not small. There were several state-owned factories in the town, and other infrastructure was also complete. On the way to the post office with Lu Chen, Meng Yinyin couldn't help but look around curiously.
When passing by a textile factory, she suddenly felt familiar.
After walking through the textile factory, she finally remembered where she had heard the word "textile factory". It turned out that Jiang Guihua had told her that day that her mother-in-law worked in the textile factory in the town, and also said that if Meng Yinyin wanted to come to the town to play someday, she should remember to find her at the textile factory.
But she has nothing to do, why should I go to see her
So Meng Yinyin just took a look at the gate of the textile factory and quickly put the matter out of her mind.
Soon, the two arrived at the post office. Meng Yinyin stood outside the post office and let Lu Chen go in to handle his business.
In the post office, Lu Chen took out the letter he had written last night, and then took out the address that had been covered in dust for a long time, and even the captain was not sure whether it was still correct, and mailed the letter.
Seeing the post office staff taking his letter away, Lu Chen stared at the letter for a long time, until he could no longer see the letter, then he withdrew his gaze and turned away.
He had placed too much hope on this letter. If even this letter was useless, he might really have no choice but to resort to tough measures.
Outside the post office, Meng Yinyin found a place to stand under the eaves, hiding from the sun while waiting for Lu Chen.
She has fair skin and outstanding looks. Today, she wore a bright-colored dress for shopping in town. Everyone passing by paid attention to her.
They had never seen such a beauty before.
However, Meng Yinyin was already accustomed to such gazes, so she didn't even look at the others. She just stared at the door of the post office, waiting for Lu Chen to come out.
Just as she watched Lu Chen line up and walk up to the post office staff to say something, a surprised voice suddenly came from behind her.
"Meng Zhiqing, you're in town?"
Hearing this, Meng Yinyin turned around in confusion and saw Mother Wang, whom she had met before.
Mother Wang was looking at Meng Yinyin with a smile, as if she had seen some rare treasure, which made Meng Yinyin look confused and even a little wary.
"Um, Wang..." Auntie
She remembered that Jiang Guihua had told her what Mother Wang's name was, but she had forgotten it.
Because Meng Yinyin never thought that she would meet her again in the future, she didn't bother to remember Mother Wang's name.
Mother Wang was not angry when she saw this. She smiled and told Meng Yinyin her name again.
"Meng Zhiqing, my name is Zhao Shufen, you can just call me Aunt Zhao."
Upon hearing this, Meng Yinyin obediently called her Aunt Zhao.
Zhao Shufen felt comfortable listening to the soft voice.
As expected, this person is good-looking and has a nice voice. If I had such a well-behaved girl by my side, I would probably eat a few more bowls of rice just by looking at her.
Of course, there is another biggest reason why Zhao Shufen is so satisfied with Meng Yinyin. That is, after her two sons came back yesterday, the second son clearly expressed his satisfaction with Meng Yinyin.
This is the first girl her son feels satisfied with after dating so many girls, and he can even say that he likes her. As a mother, she has to take it seriously!
If nothing unexpected happens, Meng Yinyin will be his daughter-in-law in the future!
"Yinyin, what are you doing in town today? Have you finished your work? If you have, why don't you go to your aunt's house for lunch? I'm a good cook. I can cook whatever you want!"
Meng Yinyin once again felt that Zhao Shufen's enthusiasm was too much and she was a little overwhelmed.
Although she knew that she was likable, she still understood that those who showed too much attention for no reason were either treacherous or thieves.
So Meng Yinyin refused without even thinking about it.
"Aunt Zhao, thank you for your kindness, but I don't have much to do. I will go back after I finish my work. I have to go back to work in the afternoon. I don't want my personal affairs to affect the progress of the entire team!"
Meng Yinyin said this in a serious manner, as if she was not the one who was desperately trying to avoid labor every day.
Zhao Shufen really didn't expect Meng Yinyin to use the matter of going to work as an excuse, and she suddenly didn't know how to continue persuading her.
She wanted to say that she could only earn a few work points by working for a day, so it would be better to marry into their family and enjoy a good life, but she didn't dare to say it.
"Just have lunch. After lunch, I'll ride my bike to take you back to the team in the afternoon. It'll be quick and won't delay your other things."
Zhao Shufen was still unwilling to give up the opportunity for Meng Yinyin to be with her son.
However, Meng Yinyin still had that upright expression that said "for the sake of the entire team she cannot abandon everyone".
Zhao Shufen was completely helpless, and she never expected that these educated youth from the city were actually more hardworking than the native rural people.
Seeing that she had no reason to keep Meng Yinyin at home to discuss things, Zhao Shufen could only tell the truth hesitantly.
"Um, Meng Zhiqing, auntie wants to ask you something, can you tell me?"
Here she comes, she knew that this Aunt Zhao must need her help with something!
She was extremely alert, staring at Zhao Shufen with wide eyes, waiting to counter her moves!
What she didn't expect was that Zhao Shufen actually said -
"Meng Zhiqing, do you have any plans to meet someone? Actually, I have a second son who is 23 years old this year. I'm not exaggerating, he is also very handsome. Moreover, my son is a key member of the furniture factory and has a bright future. We also have a house at home. If my second son gets married in the future, it will be no problem for the couple to move out."
"What do you think?"
Zhao Shufen counted on her fingers the conditions of her son and his family. These conditions she mentioned were unique, not to mention in the Nanjiao Brigade, even in this town.
So before, countless girls tried their best to marry her second son. He is handsome and has a wealthy family. If she marries him, she will have everything.
She was not afraid that Meng Yinyin would not be tempted by displaying all these now.
After saying that, Zhao Shufen looked at Meng Yinyin with full anticipation.
Meng Yinyin finally realized that this enthusiastic Aunt Zhao actually had a crush on her and wanted her to marry her second son!
It has to be said that after knowing Zhao Shufen's thoughts, Meng Yinyin was relieved.
There was nothing she could do. It was because Zhao Shufen's enthusiasm had come too suddenly and strangely that she had been on guard and cautious. Now that she knew her intentions, she felt relieved.
As for Zhao Shufen's second son whom she recommended to him, and her family situation.
To be honest, if this condition was placed in front of Meng Yinyin in the past, she probably would not even consider it, but now she has almost become a "phoenix in distress", and this situation is already pretty good for her.
But if Zhao Shufen had told her about this two days earlier, she would probably have considered it seriously.
But now, she has made up her mind to date Lu Chen. She is a determined and single-minded person. Now that she has chosen her partner, she will not give up halfway.
So no matter how well Zhao Shufen spoke, or how outstanding her son was, Meng Yinyin could only refuse with tears.
She doesn't want to be that kind of indecisive woman.
"Aunt Zhao, I'm sorry. Although I'm not married yet, I actually have someone I like."
Meng Yinyin didn't want her to misunderstand again, so she refused straightforwardly.
When Zhao Shufen heard this, she was completely shocked by Meng Yinyin's words.
"Meng, Meng Zhiqing, didn't you say you didn't have a partner?"
Meng Yinyin tilted her head in confusion: "I really don't have a partner, but I have someone I like. Maybe soon he will become my partner, and then my husband!"
Meng Yinyin was very happy when she thought that she might live in Lu Chen's house in the future, have a big house to live in, have meat to eat, and not have to work.
Of course, she had to admit that she felt safe and not nervous when being with Lu Chen.
So at this moment, even if other people had the same conditions as Lu Chen, she probably wouldn't agree so quickly.
Zhao Shufen saw that the joy in her eyes when she spoke did not seem fake, and her heart gradually turned cold.
I didn't expect that after my son finally fell in love with a girl, she already had someone else in her heart.
Although Zhao Shufen really likes Meng Yinyin, she really can't do anything to break up the couple. Besides, there's no guarantee that Meng Yinyin will let them break up the couple.
But she still had a doubt in her heart, that is -
"Meng Zhiqing, may I ask you one more question, is the person you like from your hometown, or did you meet him after you went to the countryside?"
If it was from his hometown, then Zhao Shufen felt that there might really be no hope for her son.
Because even if she didn't know where Meng Yinyin came from, judging from her figure and temperament, she must have been brought up in a pampered environment, and the people around her must also be of very good quality.
Although their family is well off in this small town, it is definitely not as good as those in big cities.
But what if the person Meng Yinyin was talking about was someone she met after going to the countryside
I'm afraid no one in the entire Nanjiao Brigade can compare to her son!
In this way, maybe there is still hope for my son!
Seeing that Zhao Shufen still seemed unwilling to give up, Meng Yinyin could only sigh silently in her heart, thinking that sometimes being too charming was indeed a troublesome thing. You see, this Aunt Zhao just liked her to be her daughter-in-law too much.
However, with Lu Chen around, she felt that she could only disappoint Aunt Zhao.
So the next second, Meng Yinyin said to Zhao Shufen: "I met the person I like after going to the countryside."
Zhao Shufen has asked this much, and she will not give up if she doesn't get the details clearly.
"Is it the educated youth who went with Meng Zhiqing? Although the educated youth may have common topics with Meng Zhiqing and they may develop feelings for each other after spending time together every day, Aunt Zhao is an experienced person. This sudden closeness in an unfamiliar environment may not be the love between husband and wife, but perhaps just because they want to seek..." Just a gathering of companions.
Before she could finish her words, Meng Yinyin immediately shook her head.
“Not an educated youth.”
Not an educated youth!
But after going to the countryside, the only people I met were the educated youth and the local members of the commune!
Could it be that the person Meng Yinyin fell in love with was actually a rural boy who was born and raised in the Nanjiao Brigade!
Zhao Shufen was stunned again.
Meng Yinyin's choice is even more surprising than her choice of educated youth.
"Yes, he's not an educated youth, but he's a very nice person and he treats me very well. I like him, too."
In fact, what Meng Yinyin wanted to say was that she was quite satisfied with him.
But she couldn't just say directly that she wanted to be with Lu Chen because of his various qualities. It would be bad if Lu Chen heard it.
But she didn't need to explain it in such detail. After hearing that Meng Yinyin fell in love with a country boy, Zhao Shufen looked at her with an expression of "hateful iron but not steel".
Meng Yinyin didn't want to care what she thought of her. After all, she was the one who lived her own life, and it was enough for her to be satisfied.
So when Yu Guang saw Lu Chen had finished his work and came out, Meng Yinyin smiled and waved to Zhao Shufen, saying goodbye: "Aunt Zhao, we're leaving first, bye!"
After saying that, Meng Yinyin trotted over to Lu Chen and looked up at him.
"Have you finished your work?"
Lu Chen nodded, and before coming out he noticed Meng Yinyin talking to Zhao Shufen.
When the Wang family went to Lu Dashan’s house to discuss the marriage, he had met Zhao Shufen once and had an impression of her.
However, because Lu Dashan and Jiang Guihua did not introduce him to the Wang family, Lu Chen would not take the initiative to greet Zhao Shufen at this moment, but only lowered his head to ask Meng Yinyin.
"And you?"
"Me?" Meng Yinyin realized what Lu Chen meant after noticing his gaze and shook her head. "Aunt Zhao and I have finished talking. There is nothing else to do. We can go to the next place!"
After hearing her say this, Lu Chen stopped asking questions and prepared to leave with Meng Yinyin.
Zhao Shufen, who was standing by, suddenly frowned and looked at Meng Yinyin in disbelief after seeing how Meng Yinyin and Lu Chen got along.
"Meng Zhiqing, the person you just mentioned, could it be him?"
