Chapter 182 Taking Ran Qiuye for a Walk
"Since your mother has taken over the job, you two will have to rely on her salary to live from now on. Try not to get too upset with her."
"If she gives money to the Sun family, you two should just ignore it. Your main task now is to study, and just make sure you have enough food and clothes to eat and wear."
"Talk to your mother more often and provide her with old-age care. The Sun family won't be able to provide for her in her old age. If you talk too much, your mother will figure it out herself."
When Chen Jianye was selecting vegetables, he casually shared his experience with the Wang siblings.
Wang Mingcai and Wang Xuegui listened quietly.
After picking the vegetables, Chen Jianye cooked at home.
There are three more people at home today, so Chen Jianye cooked three more dishes.
Four dishes and one soup are placed on the table, with a rich aroma.
"Your craftsmanship is pretty good."
Zhou Hongwei took a few bites of the food and said with some surprise.
"I am the only one in my family, and I have acquired my skills through daily practice."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
"Not bad, not bad. Whoever marries you will be blessed."
Zhou Hongwei joked.
"You two should eat more and finish all the food. Don't waste it."
Chen Jianye was too lazy to discuss this topic with Zhou Hongwei, so he talked to the two children of the Wang family.
The two children were growing up and swallowed their food in big mouthfuls.
He looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.
In less than half an hour, the four dishes and one soup on the table were eaten up.
Chen Jianye took out a Daqianmen cigarette and prepared to give some cigarettes to others. Zhou Hongwei took out a Daqianmen cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Chen Jianye.
Chen Jianye took it and clamped it on his ear.
He doesn't smoke.
He had tried to smoke Daqianmen before, but it was too damn choking and there was no way he could smoke it.
After the meal, the Wang siblings took the initiative to clean up the tableware and prepare to wash the dishes.
"You two can sit down and take a rest. You don't have to wash the dishes. I have someone to help with the washing."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
The Wang siblings touched their bellies comfortably, with looks of satisfaction on their faces.
After finishing his cigarette, Zhou Hongwei asked the Wang siblings to leave.
He had a bicycle and took the siblings back.
"Brother Jianye, let's go."
Wang Mingcai waved his hand.
"Come on, whenever you want to eat something good, come to my house."
Chen Jianye smiled, raised his hand and waved goodbye.
Wang Mingcai and Wang Xuegui's eyes were obviously shining.
The two followed Zhou Hongwei away.
Chen Jianye put the dishes and chopsticks into an enamel basin and took them to the front yard.
Seeing that it was still early, he rode his bike out and headed straight for the Ran family.
Arriving at the Ran family, Chen Jianye knocked on the door.
"Who?"
Ran's mother's voice came from the room.
"Aunt, it's me, Chen Jianye."
Chen Jianye replied.
"Hey, Jianye is here."
Ran's mother's voice suddenly became enthusiastic. She opened the door and asked with a smile, "Have you eaten?"
"I ate it. I came here to play with Qiu Ye."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
"Qiuye is studying materials for the exam. Wait a minute, I'll call her over."
Ran's mother explained and went to knock on Ran Qiuye's door.
Upon learning that Chen Jianye was coming, Ran Qiuye hurried out of the house and rushed to the gate.
"How did you come?"
Ran Qiuye asked.
"I missed you, so I wanted to come see you."
Chen Jianye smiled slightly.
"You're such a jerk. Why didn't you come the past two days? You probably didn't miss me the past two days."
Ran Qiuye felt a little embarrassed and tried to make things difficult for him.
"I didn't think about it that much the past two days, but today I thought about it so much that I couldn't control myself."
Chen Jianye looked sincere.
It doesn’t matter if the love words are corny, as long as the other person is willing to listen, any corny love words will be appropriate.
Ran Qiuye raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Now that you have seen me, what do you want to do?"
"Let's take a walk."
Chen Jianye proposed.
"Ah."
Ran Qiuye nodded.
Chen Jianye got on the bicycle, and Ran Qiuye sat on the back seat with her legs in the same direction.
"Just walk around your neighborhood and tell me where it is and what you did there."
Chen Jianye said casually.
"Okay, look over there. I remember when I was a kid, it was a candy shop. After the public-private partnership, it moved to..."
Ran Qiuye pointed to a dilapidated hut in front and talked about her childhood.
A few old ladies gathered next to the cottage to chat after finishing their meal.
When they saw Ran Qiuye coming over by car, they all asked him questions.
"Hey, Qiuye, are you dating?"
"This young man looks very energetic. Where is he from?"
"Young man, bring Qiu Ye out. Does Lao Ran agree?"
Ran Qiuye's neighbors and elders were around, asking questions one after another.
"Aunt Liu, his name is Chen Jianye, and he's the guy I just started dating."
Ran Qiuye blushed slightly and responded positively.
"I live in the courtyard at No. 95 Nanguluo Lane. I picked up Qiuye and took her out for a walk. I told my aunt about it."
Chen Jianye also replied.
"Where does the boy work?"
An aunt asked.
"I work in a steel rolling mill and am now a level 4 fitter."
Chen Jianye raised his level by three without blushing or breathing heavily.
Anyway, these people don’t know either.
Even if someone really went to inquire about him, they would naturally know that his level was only that of a level 4 worker.
It's not really bragging.
"You're already a level 4 fitter at such a young age, that's great."
"No wonder Lao Ran asked you to bring her daughter out."
"Qiuye found a good family."
When several old ladies heard this, they all praised it.
Ran Qiuye's face was full of smiles: "You guys chat, Comrade Jianye and I will continue to stroll around."
Chen Jianye waved and continued to circle on his bike.
After he left, several old ladies continued to talk.
"That kid must be from a wealthy family. His bicycle is a Phoenix brand and his watch is a Shanghai brand."
"You looked really carefully. All I saw was that his bicycle was quite new."
"Qiu Ye is a lucky girl. She will never have to suffer in her life."
Several old ladies were very envious.
Next, Chen Jianye and Ran Qiuye met several more waves of acquaintances.
Or rather, he is an acquaintance of Ran Qiuye.
I also met a colleague of Ran's father.
Ran Qiuye introduced Chen Jianye generously, saying that his identity as a fourth-level fitter in the steel rolling mill was impressive enough.
In this era, the working class is a top-notch profession.
Such a young level 4 fitter is the epitome of a promising future.
No one dares to look down upon it.
When the walk was almost over, Ran Qiuye came to her senses and pinched the soft flesh on Chen Jianye's waist: "I was wondering why you missed me so much that you took me for a walk. Now everyone knows that I'm dating someone."
"You've made our story public today. Are you afraid that I'll run away?"
"That's not good. I finally found someone. If you run away, wouldn't all my efforts be in vain?"
Chen Jianye said with a smile and stopped his bicycle.
"My dad signed me up to teach at Red Star Primary School, and I have to prepare for the exam during this time."
"I have to take the test next week. I am so anxious. What if I fail? I will have to wait another half a year."
"If I can't find a job, you'll have to support me when I go to your house."
Ran Qiuye explained, and then asked, "Why don't you leave?"
"I want to kiss you."
Chen Jianye turned around, hugged Ran Qiuye, and put his mouth close to hers.
"Ugh."
Ran Qiuye was speechless and couldn't push Chen Jianye away.
Soon I got lost.
