Let's start with my old friend Lao Zhang. Lao Zhang, he is fifty-six years old this year, and he is very energetic, but he has been single all these years and has not found a companion. No, a few days ago, he heard that there was a blind date, so he thought about going to see it, maybe he could meet a suitable wife.
On the day of the blind date, Lao Zhang specially dressed up, put on his best clothes, and combed his oily and slippery back. As soon as he walked into the venue, he saw a woman in a red dress, who was the protagonist of the later story - Aunt Li.
Aunt Li is fifty-four, but she looks quite young and knows how to dress up. As soon as she saw Lao Zhang, she took the initiative to come over and said with a smile: "You are Mr. Zhang, right? ”
Lao Zhang was a little surprised, but he was also very happy, after all, after so many years, it was the first time that a woman took the initiative to talk to him. The two of them chatted like this, from the weather to hobbies, from work to family, quite speculative.
But chatting and chatting, Lao Zhang felt that something was wrong. Although Aunt Li looks quite young, her makeup is too thick. Eyeshadow, lipstick, blush, nothing less. Lao Zhang muttered in his heart: Why does this woman wear such heavy makeup? At this age, is it necessary to toss so much?
Lao Zhang is a real person, he thought about it, and decided to tell Aunt Li the truth. He cleared his throat and said, "Aunt Li, you're very nice, but I think we may not be a good fit." ”
Aunt Li was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why? Didn't we have a good chat?"
Lao Zhang scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "That, I just think that your makeup is a little too thick, I don't like it very much." ”
As soon as she said this, Aunt Li's face changed. She stared at Lao Zhang with wide eyes, as if she couldn't believe her ears. After a while, she said, "There's nothing wrong with makeup, right? I'm wearing makeup to make myself look more energetic, what's wrong?"
Lao Zhang was taken aback by Aunt Li's reaction, he didn't expect his words to make the other party so excited. He quickly explained: "Oh, Aunt Li, don't get me wrong, I didn't say that makeup is bad, it's just ...... Personally, I don't like too much makeup. ”
But Aunt Li obviously didn't accept this explanation, she snorted coldly and said, "If you don't like it, you don't like it, but you can't say that there is something wrong with makeup, right? Besides, I don't put on makeup to show you, I just like it." ”
Lao Zhang was speechless, so he could only nod his head again and again in agreement. He thought to himself: This woman is so powerful, I'd better stay away.
In this way, Lao Zhang's first blind date ended in failure. He originally thought that he could find a suitable wife to spend the rest of his life with, but he didn't expect to offend the other party because of a word. He sighed and thought to himself: This matter of finding a wife is really not so easy.
After returning home, Lao Zhang told his old friend Lao Li about the blind date, Lao Li laughed and said, "Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, you really don't know women." Make-up is as important to them as a man's face. You'll have to be careful in the future and stop talking nonsense. ”
Lao Zhang sighed, nodded and said, "Yes, I can be regarded as a teacher this time." Looks like I'm going to have to learn how to get along with women. ”
After this incident, Lao Zhang did not stop on the blind date. He participated in several blind date activities one after another, but he didn't meet anyone particularly suitable. He began to reflect on himself, was he too demanding, or was there something wrong with his own way?
Just when he was a little depressed, he met another woman. This time, the woman did not wear heavy makeup and looked very simple, but she left a deep impression on Lao Zhang. Her name is Xiaofang, she is a few years younger than Lao Zhang, but she has experienced a lot of hardships in life, and now she lives alone with two children.
Lao Zhang and Xiao Fang chatted very speculatively, and they found that they shared a lot of experiences and ideas with each other. Lao Zhang didn't care about Xiaofang's past, he just felt that this woman was very real, very strong, and the kind of person he was looking for.
After a period of getting along, Lao Zhang and Xiaofang's relationship became deeper and deeper. They cook, watch movies, and go to the park together, just like a normal couple. Lao Zhang felt that he had really found the right person this time.
However, just when Lao Zhang thought that everything was going in a good direction, an unexpected news broke the silence. It turned out that Xiaofang's ex-husband suddenly came back to her, hoping to remarry. When Lao Zhang heard the news, he had mixed feelings, and he didn't know how to face this sudden change.
Xiaofang was also entangled, and she said to Lao Zhang: "I don't know what to do anymore, my heart is very messy." ”
Lao Zhang looked at Xiaofang's eyes and knew that she was really embarrassed. He took a deep breath, took Xiao Fang's hand and said, "Xiao Fang, no matter what decision you make, I will respect you and support you." ”
After hearing this, tears rolled in Xiaofang's eyes. She knew that Lao Zhang was a good man, and she didn't want to lose him. But how does she choose?
A few days later, Xiaofang made a decision. She rejected her ex-husband's request to remarry and chose to be with Lao Zhang. She said to Lao Zhang: "I feel very relieved and happy to be with you." I don't want to lose that feeling. ”
After Lao Zhang heard this, he was so excited that he hugged Xiaofang tightly. He knew that he had really found happiness this time.
Since then, Lao Zhang and Xiaofang have lived happily ever after. They face the bits and pieces of life together, whether it is happy or difficult, and they are all closely attached to each other. Lao Zhang often said with emotion: "It turns out that true happiness is all around us." ”
