Rebirth of a Female State-Owned Factory Manager in the 1980s

Chapter 220 Chapter 220

···
Most of what Meng Jie told were anecdotes, which she had never heard of, but she liked to hear them very much.

After Meng Jie heard her words, he seemed to be inspired, and continued to talk about some things he had heard.

"I like to find these stories and listen to them on weekdays, and I also like to run around. If you like to listen to them, I will tell you later!" There was a trace of expectation in Meng Jie's words.

Du Lingling didn't hear the deep meaning in his words, she just nodded slightly.

Meng Jie got her affirmative answer, reached out and touched his head, and the smile on his face was even brighter.

Soon it was evening, and Huo Xianchen came to knock on the door.

Jiang Yuanyuan hurriedly put away the wool and needles in his hand, then got up to open the door.

"What do you want for dinner tonight?"

As soon as they met, Huo Xianchen asked like this.

Jiang Yuanyuan thought for a while, and then pondered for a while: "I don't have a good appetite, why don't we just have a bowl of beef noodles at the noodle shop next door?"

Huo Xianchen glanced at her, frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something uncomfortable?"

As he spoke, he reached out and touched her forehead.

Jiang Yuanyuan shook his head: "No, I just don't really want to eat, I want to go to bed early. We finished eating, and I want to come back early to rest."

Huo Xianchen didn't think too much about it, he just thought that in the past two days, he got up early in the morning, passed the exam, and couldn't sleep well at night, that's why this happened.

He nodded slightly: "In that case, then go eat beef noodles."

Jiang Yuanyuan returned to the room, took the hat and scarf, and the two went out together.

After walking two steps, she remembered something again, turned her head and glanced at Huo Xianchen: "Why didn't you wear the scarf I bought for you?"

Huo Xianchen reached out and rubbed her furry hat twice, and said with a smile, "Isn't that a birthday present? I'll put it on on my birthday."

Jiang Yuanyuan shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything else.

When passing downstairs, I saw Du Lingling and Meng Jie coming back talking and laughing.

Jiang Yuanyuan raised his eyebrows, and looked around the two of them.

Looking at the application in Meng Jie's eyes, how could he not understand.

"Lingling, do you want to eat beef noodles together?" Jiang Yuanyuan asked aloud.

Du Lingling shook her head: "Meng Jie and I have already eaten outside, you go and eat!"

Jiang Yuanyuan laughed knowingly twice, causing Du Lingling's inexplicable expression: "Why are you laughing at me like this? I'm a little scared in my heart."

Jiang Yuanyuan didn't speak, but his eyes fell on Meng Jie.

Obviously, Meng Jie had thoughts for Du Lingling, but Du Lingling didn't seem to have that kind of intention for him.

At most, just treat him as a friend.

Jiang Yuanyuan didn't say much, said goodbye to them, and continued to walk outside.

When he just went out, he had already asked Wan Zhixin if he wanted to go out for dinner together, but he had already made an appointment with the other two fathers, and he wanted to go out for a drink later, so he only asked them to go out for dinner by themselves.

Jiang Yuanyuan and Huo Xianchen ate two bowls of beef noodles at the noodle shop next to the hotel.

Before Huo Xianchen said to go for a walk in the nearby park, Jiang Yuanyuan hurriedly dragged him back to the hotel.

Huo Xianchen saw her in a hurry, he could only sigh softly, and went back with her.

Jiang Yuanyuan, who returned to the room, picked up the needle and wool again and got busy.

"You really take it seriously." Du Lingling teased.

Jiang Yuanyuan glanced at her, didn't care about her teasing, but asked, "What's the matter with you and Meng Jie?"

Du Lingling was taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "What's going on?"

Jiang Yuanyuan told her Meng Jie's thoughts to her, and then she restrained the smile on her face, and asked in a low voice: "Really?"

"A boy suddenly showed interest in a girl, what do you think is the reason?" Jiang Yuanyuan dropped such a sentence to her.

Du Lingling stopped talking.

If Meng Jie really had this intention, she seemed to want to keep a little distance from him.

"What's your impression of him?" Jiang Yuanyuan asked again.

Du Lingling thought for a while, and then said: "I didn't have much impression before, but this time it's just the four of us taking the exam. We've had a lot of contact, so we still have a good impression, but..."

Jiang Yuanyuan intercepted her words: "But, you don't have feelings for him other than friends, right?"

Du Lingling felt that there was nothing wrong with what she said, so she nodded slightly.

"Understood." Jiang Yuanyuan put down the needle in his hand and said to her, "If you think you feel good about him, you two should try to get along. If you don't feel that way, express your attitude as soon as possible."

Du Lingling nodded: "I see."

Jiang Yuanyuan continued to knit a sweater with his head bowed: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with falling in love. Don't everyone advocate free love now? Just protect yourself."

"Also, even if the two love each other, it's a matter of course, and something happens, that's a normal thing. Life is alive, but it's just a picture of 'I am willing', a picture of comfort, and it's good if you think it's good."

It's better than dying and thinking about my muddleheaded life and regretting it.

Du Lingling looked at Jiang Yuanyuan in surprise.

No one has ever said Jiang Yuanyuan's words to her before.

Since she was born, people around her have told her that girls should look like girls, that girls should do housework, that it is useless for girls to study, and that they have to marry when they are old. People, women should take care of their husbands and children, and spend their whole lives around the boiler...

The secular world puts too many shackles on women, but it is too tolerant of men.

Although her mother is mediocre and cowardly, she insists on letting her go to high school, and people around her always point and point, thinking that her mother spends money for nothing.

After all, who would spend so much money to train "people from other people's families"?

As for self-respect and self-love, it has been talked about since childhood, and before marriage, it is absolutely not allowed to violate the rules.

She had also seen a girl in the village being raped by hooligans. She was obviously the victim, but was pointed out by the villagers, and finally she was forced to marry the hooligans after throwing herself into the river to no avail.

Just because, apart from marrying him, no one "wanted" her anymore.

Now, Jiang Yuanyuan told her that life is just for "happy".

"Of course, I'm not advocating your so-and-so! Don't think too much!" Jiang Yuanyuan added, "The most important thing for girls is to protect themselves when they are outside."

Du Lingling pursed her lips and smiled lightly, indicating that she understood.

"The most important thing in a relationship is to be happy with each other. If you can't meet the person you want to marry, why not be single?"

Du Lingling didn't speak any more.

Jiang Yuanyuan didn't know how much her words had affected Du Lingling.
