Chapter 7 Blind Date
Xu Xiaoshan told his eldest brother that his parents were preparing to call him to come back and they had something important to discuss with him.
Xu Yishan smiled and asked his brother, "Is there anything important to discuss?"
Xu Xiaoshan raised his face and said seriously: "Brother, dad said that you are almost thirty years old and it is time to have a family. No, dad has found a wife for you, who is my sister-in-law. Wait for you to come back.
It’s a blind date.”
Xu Yishan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His parents were worried about his marriage. From the year he graduated, his parents began to arrange marriage arrangements for him.
Xu Yishan was very disgusted with his parents' behavior and rarely came home if nothing happened.
Xu Xiaoshan said mysteriously: "Brother, do you know who my sister-in-law is?"
Xu Yishan scolded: "Xiaoshan, don't talk nonsense about sister-in-law and not sister-in-law. I already have a wife, so why do we have a date?"
Xu Xiaoshan curled his lips and said: "Brother, don't deceive me. Dad said that if you are a farmer's son, people in the city will think highly of you. Otherwise, why are you still coming back alone today?"
Xu Yishan didn't want to argue with his younger brother, who was still young and didn't know much.
His younger brother lived on campus and could not go home with him. Xu Yishan took a motorcycle back alone.
When his father Xu Wu saw him coming back, he smiled happily and said, "Yishan, are you a dog-nose? How do you know that I want you to come back?"
Xu Wu's alias is Xu Chijiao. This number was given to him by his fellow villagers. Grandpa Xu Wu has been a folk doctor since his generation.
By Xu Wu's generation, the country gave their folk doctor a title - Barefoot Doctor. From then on, the villagers called him Xu Barefoot.
Xu Chiji can give injections and prescribe medicine, and is better at traditional Chinese medicine. His grandfather left many prescriptions during his lifetime, many of which are for treating difficult and complicated diseases. Many people's diseases were not cured in big hospitals, but after taking Xu Chiji's medicine
, he actually recovered. Xu’s reputation for barefoot grew bigger and bigger day by day.
At that time, Xu Chijiao wanted to pass on his ancestral traditional Chinese medicine skills to Xu Yishan, but Xu Yishan was not interested. Xu Chijiao had no choice but to call his daughter Xu Xiu back from school and study medicine with him.
Xu Yishan was about to tell them about his invitation to the county when he came back, but Xu Chijiao had already said, "Yishan, it's just the right time for you to come back. Tomorrow, you and your mother will go on a blind date."
Xu Chijie introduced that the other party was a teacher and had just turned 23 this year. The girl was beautiful and had a gentle personality, which was more than enough for him Xu Yishan.
Xu Yishan whispered: "Dad, this is a surprise attack. I didn't want to go on a blind date."
"It's not up to you." Xu barefoot blew his beard and glared: "You don't even think about how old you are. After the New Year, you will be thirty. Fortunately, you are still holding the country's job. If you don't get married at the age of thirty in the country, you will be in this life.
It’s a bachelor’s life.”
Xu Yishan chuckled and said: "There is nothing wrong with being a bachelor. If one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry."
Hearing this, Xu Chijiao was so angry that he was furious and said angrily: "Fart! You are still a scholar, don't you understand the principle of passing on the family line? I'm afraid your book will be read into the stomach of a dog."
Xu Yishan didn't dare to argue anymore. His father, Xu Chiji, had a bad temper. He would always scold others, and sometimes he would get violent when he got angry.
This is different from Xu Yishan's impression of old Chinese medicine practitioners. In Xu Yishan's imagination, old Chinese medicine practitioners are people who have drunk enough Chinese ink, are elegant, solemn, and give people a sense of stability at all times.
As evening approaches, the smoke from the kitchen begins to drift. The smoke is like mist, floating in the mountains, forests and fields, ethereal, like a fairyland on earth.
Xu sat barefoot in front of his medicine cabinet, took out a cigarette and lit it. He said to his son without raising his head: "Yishan, I don't care how you are doing outside. If you don't get married, you will be sorry for the ancestors of my Xu family."
Lie Zong. There is a fair in town tomorrow. It wouldn’t be a bad thing for you and your mother to go and get to know each other. If you are destined, it was my ancestor of the Xu family who opened his eyes and accumulated bad virtues. Don’t think that you are a person who eats the country’s food.
Teacher, my status is no lower than yours."
Xu Yishan wanted to refuse, but was afraid that his father would scold him. After hesitating for a while, he took out a marriage certificate from his body and handed it to his father.
You two went to the county to meet her parents."
Xu Chiji was surprised and glanced at the marriage certificate, but did not reach out to take it.
"When did this happen?"
"Two days ago."
"Why have I never heard of you?"
Xu Yishan smiled and said: "Dad, this matter of love and marriage is very private. Just because I didn't say it doesn't mean I don't have it. Your son is not lame or blind. Isn't it easy to find someone to marry?"
"what is it call?"
"Chen Xiaoqi."
"What do her parents do?"
"Her father is the director of the county party committee office, and her mother is the deputy director of the county people's congress."
Xu Chijiao was stunned and didn't say anything for a long time.
After a while, he asked suspiciously: "My family is so good, why should I fall in love with you?"
Xu Yishan smiled and said: "Dad, do you look down on your son? I, Xu Yishan, am also a state cadre, so what if her family conditions are good? Don't you want to get married?"
Xu Chiji said in deep thought: "This marriage is all about being well-matched. Yishan, I don't know how capable you are as a father. I'm wondering, what does this girl like in you?"
Xu Yishan was a little dissatisfied with his father's suspicion. Although he himself was also doubting whether Chen Xiaoqi's sudden request to register him was a conspiracy, he thought about it but couldn't come up with a result. What was Chen Xiaoqi plotting against him? A small director of the Water Conservancy Bureau.
Clerk, if you stand on the street, you can't even see the top of your head.
To be honest, when Chen Xiaoqi came to the door, Xu Yishan's first feeling was that it was a pie in the sky. He was so excited that he didn't think much about it. Chen Xiaoqi is known as the most beautiful county flower, and it is definitely a deserved reputation. Considering that he has worked in Maoshan County for seven years
In my experience, I have never found a girl who is more beautiful than Chen Xiaoqi.
Xu Yishan himself explained that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It turned out that he had already fallen in love with Chen Xiaoqi deep down in his heart. However, due to the distance between them, he did not dare to express his love or even think about it deeply.
.
What Xu Yishan didn't expect was that Chen Xiaoqi's parents actually accepted him.
In the past, he didn't dare to think about it. You must know that Chen Xiaoqi's family is not something ordinary people dare to covet. After all, his parents are high-ranking officials, and his connections and resources are beyond his imagination.
However, the fact is this. Not only has he registered his marriage with Chen Xiaoqi, but he has also been approved by her parents. What makes Xu Yishan even more excited is that he will become the deputy mayor of Hongshan Town in three days.
"Dad, there is something else I want to tell you. I have been promoted to deputy mayor of Hongshan Town."
When Xu Chiji heard this, he was so shocked that he dropped the cigarette between his fingers. He looked at his son with wide eyes and asked, "What? Deputy mayor? Are you an official?"
Xu Yishan said proudly: "Dad, I am a public servant of the people."
"Don't keep talking to me." Xu Chiji said with a stern face: "How did you become the deputy mayor?"
"Promoted by the organization." Xu Yishan said seriously: "The decision made by the organization during the inspection should be that your son is a talent that can be developed."
"Shit!" Xu Chiji cursed, "Yishan, I still don't know how many pounds you have? Maoshan County is so big, there are more qualified people than you, such a good thing will happen to you.
.Tell me, was it arranged by this person named Chen?"
Xu Yishan said dissatisfied: "Dad, you are thinking too much. He is not an organization and he cannot represent the organization. How can he arrange for me?"
