Chapter 58: Maybe I’ll have to be a grandfather instead of a father
Looking at his mother nagging, Huo Jingrui rarely smiled. His mother likes to cook, but she really has no talent in that area. Everyone in the compound knows that.
When he was a child, Liu Cheng, the boy who followed him, was often tortured, and there was a shadow in his heart.
Jiang Jingya filled a bowl for her son and said, "Son, drink it while it's hot. It should smell fishy when it's cold."
Seeing her son take it, Jiang Jingya sat aside and said, "Son, I asked the doctor that after you are discharged from the hospital this time, you will have to rest for a while before returning to the army."
Before she finished speaking, Huo Jingrui interrupted: "Mom, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Jiang Jingya had a smile in her eyes: "My son is still smart."
Cough lightly: "In the courtyard, the children of those who are about your age can run all over the floor. Mom is not forcing you, but if you don't hurry, all the good girls will be picked out."
While speaking, he kept looking at his son's reaction: "Why don't you take this time to go on a blind date? Maybe you can meet someone who catches your eye, what do you think?"
Huo Jingrui remained silent, but when his mother mentioned the blind date, he couldn't help but think of the girl who saved her that day. He felt like he had seen her somewhere, but he just couldn't remember.
In the past few days, he has been asking Liu Cheng to inquire about her news, but several people who were with her at that time were killed by those desperadoes, and the identities of those people are still under investigation.
Looking at the situation at that time, she was probably not on the same page as those people. I hope everything is fine for her.
After finishing the last sip of fish soup in the bowl, he handed the bowl over: "Mom, this is not urgent. Besides, my marriage will never be compromised. I told you before."
Jiang Jingya didn’t want to force her son, but he was already twenty-five years old. If she continued to delay, when would she be able to hold her grandson in her arms: “Son, I agree to this, but if you don’t agree, where did you get your wife?
Now your eldest nephew Xiaodong is in a relationship, and they may be discussing marriage in a few days. If you don't hurry up, you may have to become a grandfather instead of a father. Huo Jingrui's face turned dark as soon as these words came out: "Okay, I know this." "
Jiang Jingya is also a sensible person. Seeing her son's change of expression, she stopped continuing.

Yunyi woke up early, packed her bedding, cleared the table, and then took the washbasin out of the room.
The feeling of sleeping on the table is really bad, plus there are people snoring in the room. If I hadn't been dressed, I wouldn't have been able to sleep.
We must ask the party secretary to find more people to tidy up the house today. If she comes here one night later, she may collapse.
After she had washed and tidied up, the educated youth started to get up one after another.
Wang Jianhui, the commander of the meeting, came out and said, "Commander, the branch secretary will arrange for someone to help me clean up the house today. Anyway, it will only take a day or two. I brought some food with me when I came. It won't be a problem to make a few meals together." I’m going to set up a stove here with the educated youth.”
She has to go to the commune to buy kitchen supplies today, and she may not be able to come back at noon. If everything goes well, maybe the house will be repaired today, and there will be no need to mess with the educated youth.
Wang Jianhui understood what Yun Yi meant as soon as he heard it. After all, last night he also said that if he wanted to get together, he would have to count vegetables, oil and salt. I guess Chu Zhiqing was afraid of trouble.
Yun Yi went to the kitchen and asked for a bowl of hot water, made herself a bowl of malted milk, and had breakfast with the buns she bought at the state-owned restaurant yesterday.
He greeted Geng Erhong who had just washed up and said, "Geng Zhiqing, I want to go to the house to have a look, so I will leave first."
