First Marriage Then Love (Mr. Mayor Please Be Kind)

The third update is here.

----------------

Hearing what Jin Lan said, he met Lin Yanqiu when he came here. Guo Caiping, who was putting food into her mouth, froze there for a while. After a while, she raised her head and looked at her daughter with bright eyes: "Have you said hello to her?"

"Yes." Jin Lan nodded, "A lot of people came from the Zhou family, including Zhou Xikang. I thought about it and didn't say hello to Zhou Xikang. I said hello to Aunt Lin."

"Okay, daughter, you did a good job." Guo Caiping gave her daughter a thumbs up happily, "You know your Aunt Lin's temper. She hates girls who destroy other people's families. So, you must stay away from Zhou Xikang in the future. Son, only in this way can she like you more."

"Mom, I know..." Jin Lan smiled forcefully, "So, even if I wanted to have a word with him, I didn't step forward."

"Hey..." Sighing, Guo Caiping put down her chopsticks, "It's all my mother's fault. If my mother had married a man with better conditions, you wouldn't have to suffer this."

Jin Lan looked at her mother helplessly: "Mom, look at what you said, if you hadn't married dad, how would you still have me now?"

"That's true..." Guo Caiping smiled sheepishly, "Mom didn't settle the matter for a while. Lan Lan, please don't let your dad know what I think. Otherwise, he will stop cooking for me. ."

"Mom..." After hesitating, Jin Lan looked at Guo Caiping seriously, "Do you think now that you are marrying your father right or wrong?"

Guo Caiping shook her head: "To be honest, I don't know. Sometimes I think it's a loss to marry someone who takes a job, but sometimes when I see others working hard all day and having to go home to cook and clean up the housework, I feel that it's worth marrying me." of.

However, the premise is not to be with Aunt Lin and the others. Like them, there is no need to think about these issues at all. What does housework mean when you have a maid at home and a driver when you go out? What’s cooking? "

Jin Lan frowned tightly: "Mom, I used to think your idea was right. That's why I deliberately pretended to be good in front of Aunt Lin, but after repeated failures, I was really confused.

What if I never find the right one? Compared with the two situations you mentioned before, is it more terrifying to be alone for the rest of your life without a man to hurt you? "

"No, my daughter is not bad in appearance and has good abilities. How can she not be loved by men? As long as my daughter is willing to lower her conditions, there will be groups of men vying to marry my daughter. But, my daughter wants to The person I want to marry is not just an ordinary person like that..."

Jin Lan interrupted her impatiently: "Mom,

I don’t want to hear this kind of thing anymore. I’ve been saying it for several years, but everything is still the same. If I keep waiting like this, my life will really be ruined. "

Yes, my daughter is already twenty-seven years old, how much longer can she wait? Why did she beg her daughter to find an in-law when she met a friend with better conditions? She was so anxious! It was just to comfort her daughter that she showed no urgency.

However, if it is now, let your daughter get married. How many people have to laugh at it?

"Are you willing?" Guo Caiping looked at her daughter, "Are you really willing to wait until today and then marry into an ordinary family?"

"I'm not willing to give in, but what can I do? When you went back that day, you told me that you met the third son of the Zhou family and that he had a good attitude toward you. You said that he invited you to his house as a guest.

To be honest, seeing that you were so happy at the time, and that you were really talking down to him like this because of me, I didn't expose you, based on my understanding of Zhou Mikang. He would never say those words or do those things.

After meeting Aunt Lin today, I became even more sure of my guess. I said deliberately that everyone you see now is eager to help me. Her answer was very official. She said she would introduce someone suitable to me. .

The appropriate time for this can be this year, next year, or many years. For such a sentence, mom, do you think I dare to wait? But the problem is, except for her, you have already asked for all the other friends, right?

I have always thought that in order to live a good life, I should be laughed at. If others say that I want to get married or am crazy, I just say it. I don't care. Anyway, I won't lose any weight if others say it.

But today, seeing Aunt Lin treating me like the plague, I really have doubts about my previous persistence. Mom, I want to give it up to Liu Zhenqiang. "

"You..." Guo Caiping looked at her daughter with some disbelief, "Do you really think that short winter melon is suitable? Yes, he is now the deputy county magistrate, but compared with people like the Zhou family, the deputy What is a county magistrate?

As long as your Aunt Lin is willing to help, you will definitely be able to marry a man who is a hundred times better than him. Moreover, if Liu Zhenqiang is just ugly, his life style is not very good.

Mom heard someone say that he found a rural girl before, and she got pregnant. She moved away without knowing why, and now he found another rural girl and got her to work in the county.

If you marry such a man, won't you feel aggrieved for the rest of your life? My mother said that instead of marrying him, it would be better to marry an ordinary worker. At any rate, I would not make any mistakes in my style. "

Jin Lan said unconvinced: "Mom, do you believe this rumor? If it is true as others say, how can he still firmly sit in the position of deputy county magistrate?"

"Did you get in touch with him?" Guo Caiping frowned, "Lan Lan, Mom is definitely more accurate than you when it comes to men. Listen to Mom, he is really not suitable for you."

"Let me think about it again." Jin Lan sighed, "Mom, if there is hope, I am not willing to marry him. However, I have calculated the people around me and he is the most promising.

Besides, didn't Mom also say that if you look good, you won't be able to earn a living? No one will be good-looking when you get old. So, why should you mind if he is ugly?

And Mom, he is different now. If you agree, I will let him treat us to dinner tonight. At that time, you and Dad can also observe him to see if he is still the same as you remember him. "

"Lan Lan..." Guo Caiping looked at her daughter in shock, "Don't scare mom. When did you two develop to this level? Did you and him... did you do anything excessive with him? Lan Lan , you can’t be confused about this, and you can’t hide it from mom, tell mom the truth!”

Jin Lan's face turned red: "Mom, where are you thinking? I only met him a few times because of work. He said that he would always wait for me. I met Aunt Lin today, which made me feel a little bit sad." I just wanted to stop procrastinating, so as not to end up in vain."

Guo Caiping breathed a long sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good. Mom is afraid that you will make a big mistake at a young age because you don't know the depth. Children, men care about this matter. Until the wedding day, you must not entrust yourself to Which man, otherwise, you will definitely regret it in the future."

"Mom, you have told me this truth countless times, and I will never forget it." Looking at the time, Jin Lan began to pack her lunch box, "I also made an appointment with my friends to play in the park in the afternoon, let's go."

"Who are you dating?" Guo Caiping asked worriedly.

"Mom, I am twenty-seven this year, not seventeen."

"Okay, okay, I won't ask. Just put on more clothes and don't freeze."

After sending her daughter away, Guo Caiping sat there in a daze. Intuitively, she felt that the person her daughter was dating should be Liu Zhenqiang.

…

As Guo Caiping expected, the person Jin Lan made an appointment with was indeed Liu Zhenqiang, but it was Liu Zhenqiang who sent the invitation and Jin Lan who went to the appointment.

Jin Lan and Liu Zhenqiang were classmates in elementary school. Later, Liu Zhenqiang's family moved, and they never saw each other again until junior high school.

Later, the two became classmates in junior high school.

Liu Zhenqiang went to school late. Although he was in the same class, he was two years older than her. Therefore, unlike the other boys in the class who were naughty, he took good care of Jin Lan.

For example, when Jin Lan was sick, he would help her copy her notes. Occasionally, he would also give Jin Lan an egg. Jin Lan knew that his family's conditions were not good, and the egg might be his birthday or a reward for getting good grades in the exam. , which moved Jinlan very much.

But being moved does not mean liking. In addition, Liu Zhenqiang dropped out of high school when he came to high school, and the contact between the two gradually broke off.

It wasn't until Jinlan was working that they met again, but at that time, he was a soldier under the director of the Revolutionary Committee. He was very enthusiastic about her, but she was indifferent to him.

They were in intermittent contact, and it seemed that he knew that she had no intention of him, and never tried to lead her in that direction. The occasional meeting between the two was just a chat between old classmates.

It wasn't until Liu Zhenqiang became the deputy county magistrate that his attitude towards Jin Lan became more enthusiastic. It seemed that he suddenly gained confidence and his whole person was different from before.

In addition, Jin Lan could never meet the right person, so she took a resigned attitude towards this relationship. In other words, she regarded the other person as a safer spare tire.

Yes, he is shorter and uglier. His family used to put a lot of effort into finding a wife for him, but when others heard that his family only had a mother, no father, and a younger sister, they started to shy away from him.

Later, she also knew that he had found a rural girl. Moreover, he specifically explained to her that at that time, he really wanted to marry the rural girl and even went to the rural girl's hometown.

However, the father and mother of the rural girl were too greedy, and the rural girl also wanted his material things, which made him very hurt. He felt that he would rather be single than marry such a girl, so they separated again.

She didn't dare to admit it to her mother because she was afraid that she would object. No matter what, it was a disgraceful past.

After thinking wildly, she walked to the agreed park, and he stood at the main entrance of the park. A blue khaki Chinese tunic suit made him look more handsome.

Actually, it's not ugly...Jin Lan couldn't help but comfort herself.

"Lan Lan..." Liu Zhenqiang came over quickly, took her hand and held it tightly, "I don't know how to wear more clothes, your hands are cold from the cold."

The caring words made Jin Lan, who was a little bored with his actions, feel much better in an instant.
