Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s
Chapter 371 Meeting the Parents
Hearing this, Nan Wanwu thought to herself: "Why don't you just set the wedding date on the first or second day of the Lunar New Year?"
Although she felt somewhat helpless and speechless about her son's thoughts, Nan Wanwu still patiently responded, "All up to you. But don't forget, the most important thing right now is to focus all your energy on studying and do well for the college entrance exam. If your grades aren't as good as Xiao Jiang's, it would be quite embarrassing; what if you can't even get into university?"
Chu Tingnan immediately patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, Mom. I won't neglect my studies! I will definitely work hard to get into a good university and won't bring shame to our family!"
Meanwhile, Jiang Yanqiu was in a dilemma. She hadn't figured out how to tell her family about the marriage.
Although Jiang Mingzhu and the others knew that she and Chu Tingnan were in love, and she did not hide it on purpose, but when it came to the topic of marriage, she was a little hesitant to open her mouth.
In her opinion, twenty years old is still very young and she cannot bring herself to talk about marriage.
Chu Tingnan was very proactive and didn't hide anything at all.
He came to Jiang Yanqiu to study almost every day, and every time he came, he either brought flowers or carefully selected gifts, showing his sincerity.
Lian Jiang Mingzhu smiled and joked, "Xiao Chu is really good. He's diligent, perceptive, and even knows how to give gifts. Dad used to be worried about your relationship, saying that you had a scoundrel who was pestering you."
The person Jiang Anhua saw must be Chu Tingnan, and she was too lazy to explain to Jiang Mengmingzhu.
However, Chu Tingnan is quite good at pretending. He doesn't look aloof, but very steady. He rushes to do everything as soon as he arrives. Now he sends flowers and gifts, and they are different every day. He is really likable.
Although they were all worthless things, and some of them were made by her, which girl doesn't like this kind of little surprise?
Where did these flowers come from? It makes people think more!
One day, Jiang Yanqiu finally couldn't help herself and asked Chu Tingnan, "Where did you learn all this? Why do you think about giving gifts every day?"
Chu Tingnan didn't hide it and said generously: "Mr. Murong often went to look at houses and picked up some wine on the way. He always brought gifts back. I learned this from him."
He didn't say that he had specifically asked someone for advice on proposing. He only learned the word "propose" from someone else.
Hearing that he learned it from Mr. Murong, Jiang Yanqiu didn't find it strange. She changed the subject and asked, "Where do you get your flowers from?"
This is what Jiang Yanqiu is concerned about. No one is selling flowers now. What is planted in the Chu family’s yard are vegetables, not flowers, and the flowers Chu Tingnan sent are not wild flowers.
Chu Tingnan answered truthfully: "I asked others for some, and I picked some in the park."
Jiang Yanqiu knew that his flowers came from an unknown source, and said unhappily, "You should focus more on your studies recently. Stop going to the park to steal flowers and climbing over the fence every day. What if something unexpected happens and you miss the college entrance exam?"
Chu Tingnan was unhappy when he heard the word "stealing flowers" and said defensively: "What do you mean by stealing flowers? The park belongs to everyone, and the flowers belong to everyone too."
Jiang Yanqiu glared at him and said, "Just tell me whether you climbed over the wall to pick it. No matter how skilled you are, can you guarantee that nothing will happen? Have you forgotten how many times you've been injured before?"
Chu Tingnan remained silent this time, but he still felt a little aggrieved.
Jiang Yanqiu looked at her, still feeling aggrieved, and said angrily, "If you want to give me flowers, you can pick wildflowers or grow them yourself, but don't take risks. If something happens to you, it won't be a surprise for me, but a shock! If anything happens to you, have you ever thought about how your family and I would feel? Last year, when you were injured, your aunt was so worried about you!"
After Jiang Yanqiu finished speaking, she snorted and left.
Chu Tingnan felt a little uncomfortable after hearing what Jiang Yanqiu said, but he quickly pulled her back and admitted his mistake: "I know I was wrong, I won't do it again next time. Don't be angry, I won't climb over the wall to pick flowers again! Next year I will plant a large field of flowers for you with my own hands."
"You'd better remember this, otherwise I will really ignore you!" Jiang Yanqiu didn't know what to say. This was simply a child who had not grown up yet.
When Jiang Mingzhu told Jiang Yanqiu that she was planning to get married, she didn't know what to say.
Jiang Mingzhu revealed the news that Jiang Yanqiu was going to get married to Jiang Anhua and Jiang Anhua, trying to test their reactions.
These two people probably wished Jiang Yanqiu would get married sooner. Out of sight, out of mind, so they had no objection and asked Jiang Yanqiu to take people back to take a look first.
The day Jiang Yanqiu brought Chu Tingnan to visit, Jiang Anhua was not at home, only Lu Yunxia was there.
Although Lu Yunxia was not particularly enthusiastic, she did not show any displeasure to anyone. She even gave Chu Tingnan a red envelope when Chu Tingnan left.
The next day, Jiang Yanqiu also went to visit the Chu family. She had visited the Chu family many times before when she was single, but this was the first time she went there after she started dating.
When they left, Nan Wanwu also gave Jiang Yanqiu a red envelope, the same as the one Lu Yunxia gave Chu Tingnan, both containing twelve yuan.
Afterwards, Nan Wanwu asked a matchmaker to go to the Jiang family to communicate, saying that when Chu's father came back during the Mid-Autumn Festival, he would first visit the two families, and then come to the Chu family the next day to get acquainted and finalize the marriage.
Jiang Anhua was not very happy when he saw Chu Tingnan on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but since the other party had officially come to his house, he couldn't say anything.
Chu Tingnan also recognized Jiang Anhua, and felt a little uneasy in his heart. If it weren't for him, Jiang Anhua probably wouldn't have gone to the Li family.
After the two sides got to know each other and exchanged greetings!
Jiang Anhua then ran to the kitchen to find Jiang Mingzhu and asked, "Is this the mature, steady and motivated young man you were talking about?"
Jiang Mingzhu replied in confusion: "Yes, is there any problem?"
Jiang Anhua said angrily, "Only a mature and steady person would casually shout at the door of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, 'Jiang Yanqiu, what are you sneaking around doing again?'"
Jiang Mingzhu said in disbelief: "No way, he was fine all along. Did you see the wrong person, or did you recognize the wrong person?"
"I'm not old enough to see clearly yet."
Jiang Anhua went out without saying much. They were almost talking about marriage, so what was the point of saying all this? The key was that Jiang Yanqiu might not listen to them.
At first Jiang Mingzhu thought that Jiang Anhua must have made a mistake. But when she went out and saw Chu Tingnan playing cardboard throwing with five-year-old Liu Huaijing, who was crying because of losing, and Chu Tingnan who refused to give in, she instantly realized that Jiang Anhua must have been right.
Chu's father was a man of few words. After all, he had been at the base for a long time and had little contact with the outside world. He couldn't talk about work, and there was nothing much to say about things outside. He could only chat with Jiang Anhua in a scattered and awkward manner.
But Nan Wanwu was quite talkative. She chatted enthusiastically with Lu Yunxia and Aunt Ma. With the eloquent matchmaker, the atmosphere was not dull at all!
