Xie Qingyun is twenty-nine years old. In a small county town, she is quite an older woman.
She is usually so busy and busy that she never cares about her age. But when she saw the number on the birthday cake, she was shocked: "Next year... I will be thirty years old?!"
The whole family nodded in silence.
Feng Yuzhen couldn't help nagging: "You get angry when I talk about it. But how can I not urge you? Your peers and their children are all in elementary school, and you don't even have a partner. In the past few years, you
If you don’t want to be pushed by us, we won’t push you. Now, look, you’re almost thirty, are you anxious yourself?”
Xie Qingyun shook his head upright: "Don't worry. If you can't find the right one, then I'll be alone! I still want to go to a big city to pursue my dream! Don't worry about personal issues."
Feng Yuzhen became even more anxious: "I don't know how people in big cities live, but in a small place like ours, if you are not married after the age of thirty, you will have to be a stepmother for others..."
"Stop it!" Xie Qingyun said: "It's my birthday, just let me have a happy day, okay?"
The whole family hesitated to speak. Finally, Xie Qingshou said, "My little sister is right. When it comes to birthdays, happiness is the most important thing. Let her go today."
"I'm just too indulgent to you." Feng Yuzhen sighed: "It's my fault for delaying your marriage. If you can get married this year, even if it takes ten years off my life..."
Xie Qingyun hurriedly covered his mother's mouth and said: "Your life span has not offended you. Don't always talk about those ten years of life. Today is still my birthday, so don't say unlucky words, okay?"
After eating the birthday cake, Xie Qingyun was indeed a little sad. Before she knew it, she was almost 30 years old. But she still had no idea how she would live in the future. She could only talk big words, but in fact she was at a loss. Going to a big city
It's almost like fantasy.
She has raised Xie Ying for so many years, and has become the backbone of youth business in Donghai. She has completed undergraduate correspondence courses and has become a role model in the hearts of many young teachers. What is even more rare is that she has received the pure and selfless love of many children, which makes her
Her life is busy and fulfilling. But is this really what she wants now?
Xie Qingyun has an upright appearance. If she dresses carefully, she can be regarded as a flower in the East China Sea. In recent years, there have been countless matchmakers for her, but she has never had a serious conversation. Moreover, she does not like blind dates very much. Her brain
She still retains romantic fantasies, and she is more inclined to fall in love at first sight.
She has been reluctant to fall in love and get married, and rumors about her have never stopped. Some people spread rumors that she was in love with a boy when she was in a normal school, and after she was dumped, she was stimulated. The rumors spread quickly and became tainted with stench.
Gradually, Xie Qingyun became a person with bad behavior, and she even had an abortion.
…
Because of these messages, her family members were more angry than she was. Although Xie Qingyun was also very angry, she was open-minded and said to her family: "Let the rumors fly for a while and see what other outrageous things they can make up. The more people spread it,
, the better I can see the character of others. So, I can stay calm."
In recent years, the rumors about Xie Qingyun have gradually disappeared. She behaves and sits upright, and has won the respect of teachers, students and parents. People increasingly believe that the reason why she does not get married is purely a sacrifice for her family.
.She wants to raise her niece before considering personal issues.
On the night of her twenty-ninth birthday, Xie Ying lay in bed and said to her aunt: "Aunt, I am already eleven years old and will go to junior high school in one year. You don't have to stay married for me.
Already."
"You are thinking too much." Xie Qingyun said lightly: "I did have such an idea when you were a child. But the problem now is that I can't find the person I want to marry."
"Gu, Hu Baozhu likes Xu Zhengyang in "The Bodyguard of Zhongnanhai". She dreams of a boy with extraordinary skills and handsome appearance to protect her; as for Sister Yulin, she likes Guaiguai Hu in the Little Tiger Team the most, don't look at herself
She is not good at studying, but she just likes boys who are good at studying. So what do you want? Only when you have goals can you find a boyfriend!"
Xie Qingyun thought for a while and said: "I really haven't thought about it. I think my boyfriend should have a heroic spirit, like your father and your second uncle. It is best to be older than me and have a better personality.
Calm, has read a lot of books, has his own ideas. He is good to me,
We must also be good to our family. As for whether he has money... If I like him, then his family background is not particularly important. If his family is poor, then I will work hard with him; if he is born into a wealthy family, I will also
I won’t feel inferior. For now, I can think of so much.”
Xie Ying yawned and said, "There seems to be no such person around me."
"Well, that's why I have been single until now." Xie Qingyun said tiredly: "Go to sleep, you can have everything in your dreams."
But Xie Ying couldn't sleep. She went to her aunt again and said, "But the classmates all said that Teacher Li is pursuing you."
"Ah?!" Xie Qingyun suddenly woke up and laughed: "Teacher Li? Li Chengde? My relationship with him is just like your relationship with Hua Tianlong and Wang Haochuan. Will you fall in love with them?"
Xie Ying tilted her head and thought for a while. Although she would never fall in love at the moment, she really had not considered this issue.
Xie Qingyun became wary and asked, "Do you have any ideas?"
"How is that possible? I didn't know how to fall in love before I went to college. I just think the example you gave is inappropriate. Why can't childhood sweethearts fall in love?"
Xie Qingyun was asked by a primary school student.
She has indeed never considered Li Chengde. Although he is talented and motivated, and often takes care of her, but falling in love with him? Xie Qingyun smiled bitterly and said: "If people are idle, they can make up anything."
Xie Ying whispered: "I'm talking about him pursuing you, not whether you like him or not."
Ah! It turns out that this is the key to the problem.
Xie Qingyun didn't sleep well one night, and she was not energetic at work the next day. She dozed off while sitting. Seeing this, Li Chengde made her a cup of tea with his own teapot to refresh her.
It happened that they were the only two people in the office. Xie Qingyun was drinking tea and asked abruptly: "Li Chengde, aren't you pursuing me?"
It was so direct that Li Chengde was dumbfounded.
Xie Qingyun said sternly: "You are not allowed to be nice to me, do you hear me?"
"Ah..." Li Chengde was confused and asked stupidly: "Well, why do you suddenly say this?"
"My goal in life is not to get married and have children!" Xie Qingyun said suddenly and proudly: "I also want to study for graduate school, get a doctorate, and become a professor in a university! In short, I have many pursuits in life. I will always leave this small place and go to a university.
City, realize the value of my life!"
The sudden bold words frightened Li Chengde, and he didn't know what to say. Xie Qingyun blinked and returned to normal: "Did I scare you?!"
"That's not true. It's just that I want to realize my dream first, a dream similar to yours."
Xie Qingyun was dumbfounded and didn't know what was going on.
"I'm going to work at Donghai University." Li Chengde lowered his voice and said, "When this semester is over, I will leave Donghai University."
