"Let me tell you what's good about you. You can even fall asleep after getting a haircut. Now you're better. You were given a bald head for nothing. It's so ugly..." Zhang Chunfang complained.
"Xiaoyao, have your bureau leaders seen your bald head?" What Ma Dahai cares most about is what the health bureau leaders think of Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I saw it."
"What did the leader say? Did he reprimand you?" Ma Dahai asked hurriedly.
"No, our leader is very open-minded. I told him the cause and effect, and he just told me not to sleep when I get a haircut in the future. He didn't say much else." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"That's good, that's good." Hearing that the bureau leader did not reprimand Ma Xiaoyao, Ma Dahai breathed a sigh of relief: "Xiaoyao, you finally became a civil servant, but you must cherish the job in front of you and stop being idle.
Already."
Zhang Chunfang also said beside him: "Xiaoyao, your dad is right, you must rein in your lazy temper and work hard in the future."
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I know, Dad, Mom, I'm not young anymore. I do things in a measured way. Don't worry. Come, eat fish, eat fish." Ma Xiaoyao picked up the chopsticks and gave them to Ma Dahai and Zhang Chunfang.
Got several pieces of fish.
"By the way." Zhang Chunfang suddenly remembered something: "Xiaoyao, the sister-in-law Wang next door is here today."
"What is she doing here?" Ma Xiaoyao asked doubtfully.
"Let's talk about matchmaking." Zhang Chunfang laughed.
"Talk about matchmaking? What do you mean matchmaking?" Ma Xiaoyao didn't understand.
Zhang Chunfang rolled her eyes at Ma Xiaoyao: "Do you really don't understand, or are you just pretending to be confused? Of course I'm here to act as a matchmaker for you."
"Pfft..." Ma Xiaoyao spat out the rice he had just put into his mouth. Fortunately, Ma Xiaoyao turned his head to the side the moment he spat out the rice, otherwise Zhang Chunfang would have been in bad luck when he was facing her.
"Xiaoyao, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Chunfang was stunned for a moment.
"It's okay, I'm just...Mom, are you telling the truth? Is the sister-in-law Wang next door really here to mediate with me?" Ma Xiaoyao took a breath and asked.
Zhang Chunfang nodded: "Of course it's true. Sister-in-law Wang said that she has a relative's child who is 23 years old and has just graduated from college. He looks so pretty..."
"Have you seen that girl?" Ma Xiaoyao interrupted and asked.
"I haven't seen it yet..." Zhang Chunfang shook her head.
"Since you haven't seen her before, how do you know that girl is very pretty?" Ma Xiaoyao said with a crooked mouth.
"I heard what Sister-in-law Wang said..." Zhang Chunfang was stunned.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Mom, do you believe what Sister-in-law Wang says? Let me tell you, the matchmaker's words are the most unbelievable. Their mouths can turn square things into round ones and black things.
Cheng Bai, you can’t even believe a cent of what they say!”
"How can you talk like a kid?" Zhang Chunfang said with a straight face: "Sister-in-law Wang is kind enough to come to you as a matchmaker. It's okay if you don't thank her, but you actually say bad things about her!"
"I didn't say anything bad about Sister-in-law Wang, I just told the truth..." Ma Xiaoyao defended.
"Okay, you clean up well tomorrow, and I will go to Sister-in-law Wang's house for a blind date at noon." Zhang Chunfang made the decision directly.
"What?" Ma Xiaoyao's eyes suddenly widened: "Mom, what did you say? You asked me to go on a blind date?"
"Xiaoyao, you're not young anymore, it's time to find a wife..." Before Zhang Chunfang could finish her words, she was interrupted by Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head like a rattle: "I don't want to go on a blind date, please help me reject Sister-in-law Wang."
Zhang Chunfang frowned: "Why don't you go on a blind date?"
"Mom, what age are we in now? What's more important is free love and no arranged marriages..." Ma Xiaoyao said with a bitter face.
"Who said I'm going to arrange a marriage for you? I asked you to go on a blind date. If it's not suitable, forget it. If it's suitable, try to get along. It would be best if we could get married..." Zhang Chunfang sighed: "Xiaoyao, I
You and your father are both older and want to have a grandson as soon as possible. Can't you even satisfy our small wish?"
"No...I'm still young and don't plan to get married..." Ma Xiaoyao explained.
"You're still young? You're already twenty-seven and you're about to turn thirty. You're still young? Liu Gang downstairs is the same age as you and now he has two children." Zhang Chunfang said angrily.
"They are other people, I am me..." Ma Xiaoyao muttered: "Mom, my job has just stabilized and I don't plan to get married yet."
"Then when do you plan to get married?" Zhang Chunfang asked.
"Well... let's wait another two years..." Ma Xiaoyao hesitated and said.
"What? You have to wait two years? No!" Zhang Chunfang became anxious when she heard this: "I can't wait so long, you have to go on a blind date for me tomorrow!"
Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched twice: "I won't go."
"You... your wings are so strong that you dare not even listen to my words." Zhang Chunfang was trembling with anger.
Ma Dahai hurriedly stood up and smoothed things over: "Xiaoyao, you look like you've made your mother angry, why don't you come and admit your mistake to your mother quickly." As he spoke, Ma Dahai winked at Ma Xiaoyao.
"Mom, I'm sorry, what I said was a little too hasty, please don't be angry." Ma Xiaoyao took the initiative to admit his mistake.
"Hmph!" Zhang Chunfang snorted coldly: "Ma Xiaoyao, let me ask you one question: Are you still my son?"
"Of course I am. Not only will I be your son in this life, I will also be reincarnated as your son in the next life." Ma Xiaoyao said hurriedly.
"Stop being so glib." Zhang Chunfang glared at Ma Xiaoyao: "Since you admit that you are my son, let me ask you again, should your son obey his mother?"
Ma Xiaoyao hesitated for a moment and nodded.
"Then I'll ask you to go on a blind date tomorrow, will you go?" Zhang Chunfang stared at Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer. To be honest, he was very reluctant to go on a blind date, but Ma Xiaoyao couldn't bear to make Zhang Chunfang angry again. For a moment, Ma Xiaoyao was stumped.
"Xiaoyao, just agree, don't make your mother anxious." Ma Dahai said from the side: "Isn't it just a blind date? It's not marriage, it's not a big deal. If you think the woman is not suitable, then don't talk about it.
chant."
Ma Dahai's words reminded Ma Xiaoyao, yes, isn't it just to go on a blind date and meet in person? When the time comes, I will deliberately behave carelessly, and the woman will definitely not be willing. By then, my mother will have nothing to say, right? Think about it.
After that, Ma Xiaoyao immediately had a bright smile on his face: "Mom, I'll go, I'll go on a blind date tomorrow."
"That's pretty much it." Zhang Chunfang's face softened a little: "Go up and buy a hat tomorrow to cover your bald head, so as not to make the woman picky." Zhang Chunfang was quite considerate.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I understand, Mom, can I eat now? I'm so hungry."
"You know how to eat." Zhang Chunfang rolled her eyes at Ma Xiaoyao: "Eat, eat, go to bed immediately after eating, and go home after get off work at noon tomorrow, and I will take you on a blind date."
"Oh, I won't go to work tomorrow, my employer gave me three days off." Ma Xiaoyao said casually while eating.
"Holiday? This is neither Sunday nor a holiday. Why should the company give you a holiday?" Ma Dahai suddenly became alert: "Xiaoyao, tell me the truth. Did you make a mistake at the company?"
Zhang Chunfang also looked at Ma Xiaoyao nervously.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Dad, Mom, where are you thinking? I was on a business trip a few days ago. This time, the bureau leader saw that I had a hard time on the business trip, so he gave me three days off. Not only for myself, but also for me.
Several staff members who traveled with me also took leave."
After listening to Ma Xiaoyao's explanation, Ma Dahai and Zhang Chunfang finally felt relieved. It was not that Ma Dahai and Zhang Chunfang did not trust Ma Xiaoyao, but that Ma Xiaoyao had been in trouble since he was a child and could no longer be trusted by Ma Dahai and Zhang Chunfang.
After eating, Ma Xiaoyao went to take a hot bath and then went back to the room to rest.
Lying on the soft and comfortable bed, Ma Xiaoyao tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. Finally, he simply turned on the lamp, leaned on the bedside, took out a cigarette from the cabinet next to him, lit it and started smoking.
"Blind date, blind date... I didn't expect that the plot on TV would happen to me in real life." Ma Xiaoyao sighed softly. To be honest, Ma Xiaoyao went on a blind date out of conflict in his heart. What he admired more was freedom.
Love... In fact, there is another reason why Ma Xiaoyao is unwilling to go on a blind date, and that is Gu Li. I don’t know since when, Ma Xiaoyao has been deeply in love with Gu Li. Because of the identity gap, Ma Xiaoyao has never dared to reveal it.
However, Ma Xiaoyao has not given up. He is now working hard and trying to look like a good person so that he can confess his feelings to Gu Li without any scruples.
What Ma Xiaoyao lacks most now is time. Ma Xiaoyao firmly believes that as long as he is given enough time, he will definitely get ahead. Unfortunately, his parents do not intend to give him too much time. In fact, put it away, Ma Dahai and Zhang Chunfang
His point of view is correct. Ma Xiaoyao is already 27 years old. He is considered an older man. He has indeed reached the age of marriage. Which parent in the world does not want his son to have a happy family?
Ma Xiaoyao can also understand his parents' painstaking efforts, but he is very resistant to the traditional method of blind date. What makes Ma Xiaoyao most distressed is that he can't tell his parents about Gu Li, otherwise his parents will definitely say that Ma Xiaoyao is whimsical.
To be realistic, this is indeed the case. Gu Li is the dignified deputy mayor and is about to become the mayor, while Ma Xiaoyao is just a small deputy section chief of the bureau committee. The gap between the two is really too big.
No matter who it is, they will think that it is impossible for Ma Xiaoyao and Gu Li to be together.
"Damn status..." Ma Xiaoyao exhaled a puff of smoke, with a look of distress on his face: "It would be great if Sister Gu was not the deputy mayor... Then I can pursue it openly now..." Ma Xiaoyao
When he said this, he didn't think about it. If Gu Li was not the deputy mayor, he would not have met Gu Li.
