Chapter 74: Blind date? (Two chapters in one)

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is late but arrives!

Shen Ci flipped the camera and filmed the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that her mother had stewed for two days and two nights for her sister on the other side.

The color is golden, the texture is thick, and the ingredients are rich and exquisite. It can be described as having both color, fragrance, and taste.

"Oh my god, I want to eat it too!" Shen Li's envious tears flowed from the corners of her mouth, and she couldn't help but recall: "I remember the last time I ate the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall made by Mom was when I was in elementary school."

Shen Xing squeezed into the screen, looked at his sister, and said: "Second Sister, it still has to be our sister. If it were me, Mom wouldn't make it for me even if I screamed until my throat broke."

Shen Ci slapped her younger brother's head: "Go to the side, Mom has time because she was laid off, and besides, she didn't give you less to eat on weekdays."

As she spoke, Shen Ci smiled at her sister again: "Xingxing is like a dog's nose, he has to go to the internet cafe after school recently, but today he came back on time, the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall just turned off the fire."

Shen Xing hummed triumphantly: "Don't even think about eating alone behind my back."

Shen Li pursed her lips and smiled upon hearing this, and then picked up a document and shook it at her sister on the screen: "Sis, this is the signing contract of Teacher Yu Hong's company, I took the time to read it carefully these past few days."

Speaking of business, Shen Ci couldn't help but straighten her expression: "How is it, did you see any problems?"

Shen Li shook her head: "It looks like there is no problem, but I haven't been in contact with contracts after all, and I don't study law, so I can only understand a general idea. Teacher Yu Hong said she would come to the crew the day after tomorrow, saying she wanted to talk to me in detail, and it would be best to give her an answer that day."

"Isn't there an actor under her who is also in your crew?" Shen Ci asked.

"Yes, his name is Song Song Song Anyu. Teacher Yu Hong said the contract signed with him is the same as the one given to me."

"Are you familiar with him? If it's the same, you might as well ask Song Song Song Anyu first to see if there are any minefields or unreasonable clauses in this contract."

Shen Li shook her head with a difficult expression upon hearing this: "Although I've been on set for several days, I haven't filmed any scenes with him yet. He is well protected by the team, and we newcomers don't have much chance to contact him."

"Besides, he must be closer to Teacher Yu Hong, so he might not help me."

Her sister was quite clear about this matter. Shen Ci thought for a moment and said: "The day after tomorrow, right? Then I'll take the early flight the day after tomorrow. By then, I will bring a professional lawyer to help you check it."

"Ah?" Shen Li was shocked and quickly said: "No need, Sis, you just went home for a few days."

Shen Ci insisted with a serious face: "This is business, and it's a big deal. Sis will accompany you!"

Shen Li was moved again. If her sister was there, she would indeed feel more at ease.

After hanging up the video, Shen Xing leaned over and whispered: "Sis, are you leaving?"

"Hmm."

Shen Xing put down the spoon, looked at the door of his mother's room, and sighed: "Then you tell Mom yourself, she must think you are staying until the end of National Day."

"In the few days you've been back, Mom is visibly happy, her complexion is much better, and she looks several years younger."

Shen Ci nodded in understanding: "I originally planned to do so, but your Second Sister's matter is very important, Mom will understand."

As she spoke, Shen Ci stood up and walked to her mother's door. Just as she was about to knock, she heard her mother's voice coming from inside.

Inside the room, Shen Jingjing stood by the window holding her phone and said helplessly: "Mom, can you stop worrying about my affairs? I'm almost 50, what kind of marriage am I getting into!"

It was Shen's old lady on the other end of the phone: "You aren't 50, aren't you only 45? You aren't old yet, why don't you hurry up and find one, what will you do when you get old?"

"My three children are all successful, am I afraid that no one will take care of me when I get old? I really don't want to find one, please don't let Aunt Wang bring anyone over. Last time you didn't say hello to me, Aunt Wang brought someone directly to the door, which caught me off guard. Don't you think you are just tossing me?"

Shen's old lady said stubbornly upon hearing this: "Then the children are big, don't they work? Won't they get married in the future? If you have a man, don't you have a guarantee? Won't someone pay for Xingxing's bride price in the future?"

"I don't need anyone else to help me pay, I am responsible for my own children. I didn't say to find someone to help me raise children when they were small, now they are all big, I won't find one even more!" Shen Jingjing said firmly.

In fact, she didn't know how many times she had said these words to the old lady. Over the years, the old lady had been living in Funan with her eldest brother, but her hand had always been stretched long, wanting to intervene in her private affairs and wanting her to find a man and remarry.

But she herself had made up her mind from the beginning to rely on herself to raise her children, and she had never thought about starting a new relationship.

Countless people had chased her over the years, and there had been more than a dozen people introduced by her mother, but she had never nodded.

Now she was 44 years old, and this kind of thought was even lighter, or it could be said that she almost didn't have these thoughts at all, so she didn't even want to deal with it now.

"You are really stubborn, exactly the same as your dead father!" The old lady said anxiously and angrily: "This one is a big boss, Aunt Wang said this person earns more than a thousand yuan a year, and his business has shops all over the country. If he can really take a fancy to you, it's your blessing, do you know!"

"Whoever wants this blessing can have it, I don't look down on his money!"

Thinking of her daughter, Shen Jingjing was full of confidence.

The old lady snorted coldly: "Suit yourself, you must meet this person for me. People are usually very busy, and he just happened to be on a business trip in Shengang today, and he has time tonight. Aunt Wang has already brought people on the way to your place, hurry up and tidy up and prepare."

Shen Jingjing was shocked upon hearing this: "Mom! How can you act first and report later? Besides, it's already 8 o'clock in the evening, who goes on a blind date at 8 o'clock in the evening? Can you stop adding chaos to me!"

"How can this be called adding chaos? I'm doing this for your own good! I'm hanging up, hurry up and tidy up!"

Shen's old lady hung up after speaking, not giving Shen Jingjing a chance to speak again.

Shen Jingjing lowered her arm helplessly, only feeling upset and confused.

A-Ci and Xingxing were both at home, but she, as a mother, had to go on a blind date at home. Is this appropriate?

She stood up and opened the door, only to find her daughter standing at the door. Shen Jingjing's expression changed, and she forced a smile: "Finished eating? Is it delicious?"

"Mom, I heard it all, is Grandma arranging a blind date for you again?" Shen Ci asked directly.

She was no longer a child, and her mother could confide some of her worries and troubles to her, instead of carrying everything by herself.

"Mom, if there is a suitable one, it's fine to try, my brother, sister, and I don't object."

"Mom doesn't want to find one!" Shen Jingjing sighed: "Someone will be here in a while, I'll deal with it and send the person away, you go into the room first."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a knock on the door, and Aunt Wang's voice came in: "Jingjing, it's Aunt Wang, open the door!"

When the door opened, Jiang Yuanliang stood outside the door with a tall and straight suit, holding an exquisitely packaged gift in his hand.

"Hello, I am Jiang Yuanliang!"

Jiang Yuanliang recognized at a glance that the person who opened the door was Shen Jingjing. She looked as young as in the photo, not like a 44-year-old woman at all.

And when Shen Jingjing saw Jiang Yuanliang, she was slightly stunned, only feeling that this person looked a bit familiar, but she was upset at this time, so she didn't think much about it.

Just a glance denied the man in front of her.

The reason was nothing else, this man looked only in his thirties, which was too young for her.

Originally, she wanted to deal with it for Aunt Wang's face. At this time, Aunt Wang was not there, so Shen Jingjing simply didn't intend to let the other party into the door and said directly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, you are too young, we are not suitable. Thank you for your trouble, I'm really sorry."

Jiang Yuanliang, who came to thank her, blinked inexplicably.

He was too young?

Where was he small?

"Ms. Shen, I..."

He was about to speak when he was interrupted by Shen Jingjing. Only to see Shen Jingjing speak politely but distantly: "It's getting late, I won't keep you at the door, there's no need to waste each other's time."

After speaking, Shen Jingjing was about to give Jiang Yuanliang a closed door.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuanliang quickly stretched out a foot to block the door frame, and before Shen Jingjing could speak, he grabbed the words: "Ms. Shen, I made an appointment with you to come to the door to thank you at five o'clock this evening. My flight was delayed, so I had to be late. I can understand you being angry, but look, I'm here..."

Jiang Yuanliang said, revealing a pleading expression.

And when Shen Jingjing heard Jiang Yuanliang's words, she suddenly reacted, stepped back like an electric shock, and covered her mouth in shock.

At this moment, she not only knew that she had misunderstood the situation and recognized the wrong person, but also recognized that the man in front of her was the gentleman she had saved in the restaurant a few days ago.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person."

Shen Jingjing came to her senses and couldn't laugh or cry, and said apologetically: "Mr. Jiang, I'm really sorry, I mistook you for the blind date arranged by my mother."

"You say you came by coincidence, didn't we make an appointment for the 30th?"

Jiang Yuanliang was originally confused by Shen Jingjing's words and actions, but now he understood.

He smiled: "Today is the 30th!"

"Ah?" Shen Jingjing was stunned again, picked up her phone and looked at the date, and found that it was really the 30th, and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

This is not going to work, and the days are mixed up.

She opened the door and turned sideways: "Mr. Jiang, please come in."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded and said gentlemanly: "Sorry to bother you."

"Just wear your shoes in, I happen to be cleaning in a while."

After entering the house, Jiang Yuanliang instinctively scanned the environment in the house.

The small space was clean and bright, full of family warmth everywhere.

Shen Jingjing poured a glass of water and placed it on the table, and then said apologetically: "I made Mr. Jiang laugh just now, please sit down and drink some water."

"It's okay, Ms. Shen, are you going on a blind date in a while? Will I be coming at a bad time?"

"Oh no, it was just my mother messing around, I thought I would just deal with it and send the person away. You ran all the way from Longcheng, I feel embarrassed."

Jiang Yuanliang smiled upon hearing this, looked at Shen Jingjing, and said gratefully: "You saved my life, I definitely have to come to the door to thank you in person."

As he spoke, Jiang Yuanliang placed the gift he had prepared gently on the table and said solemnly to Shen Jingjing: "Thank you for everything you did to save me, if there is anything you need my help with in the future, just speak up."

"No, no." Shen Jingjing felt a little terrified when she saw this. She had worked in a five-star hotel for so many years and had seen many successful people. The first impression Mr. Jiang gave her was that he was a successful superior.

What surprised Shen Jingjing was that a big boss like Mr. Jiang also had such a sincere side.

She was used to those superior feelings of superiority, so Jiang Yuanliang's sincerity seemed precious to her.

"I accept this gift, and I accept your gratitude. Let's end this matter here. You should pay more attention in the future, be careful with your diet, and don't let yourself be in the same danger again."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded with a smile: "You are right, if there is a next time, I might not be so lucky to meet you, I will pay attention."

Shen Ci and Shen Xing, the sister and brother, leaned on the door and listened for a long time, feeling that something was wrong.

"Sis, it doesn't seem like a blind date."

Shen Ci nodded and walked out directly.

As if not expecting anyone to be at home, Jiang Yuanliang looked over in surprise.

"Mr. Jiang, this is my daughter and younger son."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded in surprise: "You have two such big children."

Shen Jingjing smiled slightly: "Three, two daughters are in university in Longcheng, and my son will take the college entrance examination next year."

"Hello, Uncle." Shen Ci and Shen Xing called out in unison.

Shen Xing followed closely and blurted out: "Uncle, you are the person my mom saved with artificial respiration that day, right?"

One sentence made Shen Jingjing's eyes widen.

She didn't feel anything when she saved people at the time, but at this moment, hearing it from her son's mouth, and saying it in front of the other party, Shen Jingjing's face turned red.

Jiang Yuanliang didn't care and nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's me."

Just at this time, there was another knock on the door, and Aunt Wang's voice came in: "Jingjing, it's Aunt Wang, open the door!"

Hearing the sound, Shen Jingjing sighed silently, but turned to open the door.

Outside the door, Aunt Wang had a smile on her face, followed by a thin man.

That man looked only 1.7 meters tall, with no two taels of meat on his body, like a shrunken mouse.

And because he was too thin, the flesh on his face couldn't hold his skin, making his face look wrinkled and very old, visually at least fifty years old.

Although Shen Jingjing didn't intend for anything to come of this, she still felt dark in front of her eyes when she saw the other party.

Especially since she had just opened the door once, and the Mr. Jiang standing outside the door was tall and handsome, and the person in front of her was like a cloud and mud compared to him.

"Aunt Wang, look how late it is, why are you still tossing, living so far away."

Shen Jingjing could only pretend to be enthusiastic and let the person in. The man's eyes kept staring at Shen Jingjing, making her feel very uncomfortable.

"It's not troublesome, didn't your mom tell you? This Mr. Wang just happened to be on a business trip in Shengang today, and he usually doesn't have time."

Aunt Wang said as she entered the house, looked up, and found a man sitting in the living room.

Stunned, she said: "Jingjing, there are guests at home?" ===== CHAPTER 75 =====
