Chapter 88 Don’t hesitate [Tonight at 20:00…
After a while, as Teacher Yu said "Come on!", plates of exquisite dishes were served one after another!
To be honest, Teacher Wu and his wife's cooking skills are quite good. Every dish is full of Ningcheng flavor, which makes people appetizing.
There was also a plate of salted duck from Ningcheng and a bottle of Yanghe Daqu, making it feel like a festival.
"This saltwater duck was brought back to Ningcheng this time. It has been our favorite for decades, and our two daughters also like it.
I never had the chance to go back in the past few years, but my relatives in my hometown send them to me every year."
The couple was at the dinner table, picking up food for Zhou Haiyang and chatting about home cooking.
Most of the household topics revolve around our two daughters, from their elementary school days until they go to college.
At the beginning, Zhou Haiyang felt very good and everyone had a great time chatting.
After a while, I felt that the atmosphere was a little different.
He accidentally discovered that the eyes of Mr. Wu and his wife kept wandering back and forth between him and their two daughters, as if they were hinting something to their daughters.
Zhou Haiyang wanted to change the topic several times and took the opportunity to ask Teacher Wu and his wife some philosophical questions.
But every time the topic started, Teacher Wu always interrupted her again and again on the grounds that "Today is a family gathering, we won't talk about study and work."
After a while, Zhou Haiyang noticed that the atmosphere and wind direction at the dinner table had changed significantly.
Suddenly, his whole body began to feel uncomfortable! He began to feel constrained, he didn't dare to raise his eyes, couldn't speak, and didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
I have to admit that it is impossible for the two girls in front of me not to be tempted by any boy.
What's more, given his family background and personal conditions, if he doesn't want to be tempted, he is definitely not a man.
But Zhou Haiyang knew very well that over the years, he had always liked another girl, and both parties knew it, but they never made it clear.
At the dinner table, at first, he was talking happily and didn't eat anything. But now, when he couldn't think of what to say, he was not in the mood to eat anymore. His mind was in chaos.
Next, he didn't listen to anything Teacher Wu and his family said at the dinner table.
Zhou Haiyang felt that if he stayed like this any longer, he would completely collapse!
Zhou Haiyang couldn't help but look at his watch and said, "Teacher Wu, Teacher Yu, I'm sorry, I have to study by myself in the evening, you can eat slowly." After saying that, he nodded to the two sisters to express his apology.
"Look, Haiyang studies so hard, but you two are not as good as him in this regard." After hearing this, Teacher Wu immediately said to his two daughters.
Then he said to Zhou Haiyang: "It is good to study hard, but you must also pay attention to rest and balance work with rest. Today I have accepted the door, and I will come often when I have time."
Yu Ping, Yu Yan, you two will send us to the ocean."
"Ah! No! You're welcome, you really don't have to." Zhou Haiyang stood up quickly, stretched out his two big open palms and waved them vigorously, turned around and quickly fled from Teacher Wu's house.
When I walked out of the teachers' dormitory, I breathed a sigh of relief, but I felt really uncomfortable.
The three young people were having a pleasant chat. Why did the two adults have to do something fancy?
This sudden intrusion made everyone a little embarrassed.
For the rest of the meal, those who stayed were probably not in the mood either.
"All fools know in their hearts that this is clearly a matter between me and my two daughters." Zhou Haiyang finished speaking in one breath, then shook his head with a wry smile.
"It's not surprising! Nowadays, 77-level college students are a hot commodity in the society." Liu Yan chuckled, and then said: "On the train that day, I felt that Mr. Wu and his wife were a little interested in you, and their eyes kept moving.
He looked you up and down, and the two of them kept whispering to each other.
And when you get off at Yanjing Station, Teacher Wu wants to drag you to go with them. They are both at Qinhua University, why don't you invite Pei Xiaohong to come with you? This will make Xiaohong feel embarrassed and do nothing.
It’s so obvious.”
"Fortunately, I didn't go with them that day, otherwise I might have dragged me into their home that night." Zhou Haiyang suddenly realized.
"Oh, by the way, which daughter is Teacher Wu going to introduce to you?" Liu Yan had a wicked smile on his face.
"It's not clear. It seems to let me choose one of the two."
"Haha, it seems like you are pretty lucky! Which one do you have your eye on? The eldest or the second?" Liu Yan had another visible evil smile on his face.
"Go, go, I'm upset, don't make fun of me!"
"Hayang, what do you think about this matter?" Fan Lili asked at the side.
"What else can I think? It's simply impossible."
"Why is it impossible? Aren't you satisfied with either of these two girls?"
"It's not that I'm dissatisfied! Because, because..."
"Why? You already have someone in your heart, right? I didn't tell you, Haiyang, why don't you just admit it earlier? Why do you have to be secretive and evasive?" Fan Lili continued.
"You, what do you mean? How am I covering up?" Zhou Haiyang asked.
"How can you hide it? You know in your heart that a grown man clearly likes Lin Nan, but he doesn't dare to confess it boldly.
Do you think those in the Genpei Brigade have become blind over the years? Can’t you even see it?”
"Hey, why didn't I notice it?" Liu Yan asked.
"Of course you don't understand. You only think about returning to the city all day long. Have you ever cared about the ocean? Even my expressions to you are indifferent. Yuanyuan told me these. And Yuanyuan also said that in Sister Xiaohong's heart
I also like the ocean.”
"Hey! I didn't expect that Haiyang would be so popular when you were in the educated youth spot?!"
"What a grabby! If a man doesn't take the initiative, it's useless no matter how popular he is! Do you have to wait for a girl to take the initiative and say it first?
Haiyang, do you think that all the girls in this world are as shameless as me, Fan Lili, who clings to Liu Yan? Go ahead and dream!"
"Hai Yang, what Lili said makes sense. Since you like Lin Nan in your heart, and Xiaohong also likes you, you should make up your mind quickly and cut through the mess quickly!
This matter is not as complicated as you think, so don’t be nervous! Didn’t Teacher Wu make it clear yet? Just pretend to be stupid! Once Teacher Wu makes it clear, you can tell her that you have a girlfriend."
"But if you ask me where my girlfriend is, what will I say?"
"Why are you still pretending to be stupid now?! Just tell her that she is in the army, or at Qinhua University! Isn't that all?
If she doesn’t believe it, show her Lin Nan’s correspondence over the years, or bring Xiaohong in for a confrontation.”
"The problem is..."
"What's the problem? We're already at war, why are you still hesitant? Are you worried that Lin Nan or Xiaohong won't agree? You don't understand them very well.
The key to this matter depends on you. One is your middle school classmate and later an educated youth comrade. The other is your educated youth comrade. Who should you go with? You have to make up your own mind! You can no longer stand in two different places!
Yuanyuan once told me that since Lin Nan joined the army, Xiaohong washed the clothes, pants and shoes you put under the bed in the dormitory every time."
"Didn't we agree a long time ago that the female educated youth will help the male educated youth wash clothes, and the male educated youth will help the female educated youth do more work? This is our common practice at Yuanping Educated Youth! You are not just helping me!" Zhou Haiyang
Sophistry said.
"Are you still reasonable? It's right for female educated youths to help male educated youths, but every time Xiaohong helps you wash alone.
At that time, your father was still in the study class and the problem had not yet been solved. Why should the daughter of a county party secretary help you wash those smelly underwear and socks?
Don’t you understand what it means? If you don’t behave well after receiving the sweetness, why don’t you pretend to be stupid?!”
"Actually, Teacher Wu's mood is understandable. When I meet a boy like you, people see you as their own freedom. What a pity for parents in the world! Both sides are right. If you want to blame her, it's her fault for not understanding it clearly beforehand.
I guess she has learned about you from the teachers in your department. Seeing that your registration form did not fill in the relationship, she thought you didn't have a partner yet." Liu Yan said from the side.
"Well, that's what I say, but at the end of the day, give Teacher Wu some face and a step down.
If you wait until she makes it clear before telling her that she has a girlfriend, she will feel very embarrassed!
Even if she thinks it's okay, we still have to consider her two daughters.
This matter must be made clear as early as possible, otherwise there will be long nights and dreams, but it must not be too deliberate." Fan Lili continued.
"I figured it out! I'll go back and write a letter to Lin Nan and tell her what's on my mind! Tell her that I will go to the army to find her this summer..."
"That's right!"
