Chapter 35 Forced Blind Date

Two days had passed since the last meal with Fang Xiaoyue.

As expected, Fang Xiaoyue had not contacted him again.

The car detailing business was finally on the right track, and it was a monopoly in Qingpu Town.

The other two private car washes were directly sealed after Chen Feng’s report last time.

Even if they were not sealed, and the three of them operated normally, they would not be able to compete with the regular franchise store of Chen Feng’s brothers.

At this time, Chen Feng planned to return to Xiuzhou.

Because staying in his hometown was really a bit boring. His father was now helping out in the shop, so he didn’t need to interfere at all, and he didn’t want to.

His mother’s small shop at home was also very easy to run, and it was not too tiring to take care of his two little nieces with his sister-in-law.

The family was well arranged, so Chen Feng planned to return to Xiuzhou to enjoy the rest of his life.

At noon that day, as soon as Chen Feng proposed to return to Xiuzhou, his mother objected.

“You are not young anymore. It’s better to run this car wash with your brother at home than to go back to the big city to work, or find something else to do, so you can take care of each other. In addition, find another one as soon as possible and get married.”

His father, Chen Dayong, who had always been a man of few words, also echoed, “Yes. Working in a big city is just that. Besides, you have no future in this company now, why go back? It’s better to do some small business here, find a decent and honest wife, and start a family.”

Chen Rui also expressed his opinion, “Xiao Feng, since you are not happy with your work in Xiuzhou, don’t go back. Finding something to do in your own home is definitely more comfortable than being in another place.”

Only his sister-in-law did not express her opinion, but she did not need to.

Chen Feng didn’t want to argue with his family, so he could only find an excuse and say, “I still have some things to deal with over there.”

“What’s the matter? Don’t fool me.” His mother saw through Chen Feng at a glance and scolded, “It’s almost the end of the year. After the new year, you will be thirty. Do you think you are still young? I have already asked a matchmaker to introduce you to someone. There is one tonight. Go and have a look.”

Chen Feng couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

Chen Rui asked very gossipingly, “Mom, how is this woman? Don’t listen to those matchmakers’ nonsense and find someone unreliable.”

Zhao Xiaolan glared and said, “Do you think your mother doesn’t know? This was introduced by my cousin, that is, your aunt. She is very reliable. She is a primary school teacher, 26 years old this year, and still a virgin. She lives not far from your aunt’s house. They all know each other and know the bottom line. I’m just afraid that she won’t like your brother.”

When Chen Rui heard this, he quickly and happily said, “This sounds good. Xiao Feng, you have to seize this opportunity. In fact, your current conditions are not bad. Although you have been married, you have no children, so it doesn’t matter at all. You are only three years older than her, which is very good.”

If he didn’t have a terminal illness, Chen Feng might have agreed.

But now that the other party was someone his (cousin) aunt knew, he certainly couldn’t mess around. Otherwise, it would be difficult for his mother to be a person in the future.

Chen Feng couldn’t refuse directly, so he could only say euphemistically, “Mom, why don’t we add each other on WeChat first, get to know each other, and then meet if we are suitable. It will save everyone’s time.”

“She lives in the next town. It’s only a ten-minute drive for you. What time is wasted? Besides, we have already made an appointment with the other party. You must go tonight. Mom will go with you.”

Zhao Xiaolan’s tone was firm and her attitude was tough, and she would not allow Chen Feng to refuse.

The head of their family had always been his mother, Zhao Xiaolan. Besides, the whole family was on her side in this matter, so Chen Feng really couldn’t resist. He could only smile bitterly with a helpless face.

Chen Rui patted him on the shoulder and teased, “Alright, brother, just be happy.”

Hearing this, his sister-in-law said to Chen Rui angrily, “Why do you seem to be very envious of your brother?”

Chen Rui quickly and flatteringly said, “How is that possible? I’m just happy for my brother. If my sister-in-law is a primary school teacher in the future, won’t our two treasures benefit from it?”

When his sister-in-law heard this, she immediately agreed, “That’s right. Xiao Feng, for the future education of your two nieces, you have to go and have a look this time and try to win her over.”

Alright! The whole family was putting pressure on him.

In the end, Chen Feng still took his mother to the next town for a blind date. Before that, his mother forced him to get a haircut again, wash his face, apply face oil, and change into a decent-looking set of clothes.

They first went to the cousin aunt’s house. The two families had occasional social interactions, so Chen Feng still knew her. After sitting in her house for a few minutes, the cousin aunt called the woman’s side. After getting confirmation, she took the mother and son over.

The distance was indeed very close, only a hundred meters away, and they arrived soon.

Seeing this blind date female teacher, how should I put it, she was a bit thin, and her appearance was average. She was not beautiful, but she could not be said to be ugly.

Even if Chen Feng was not a member of the appearance association, when he saw her ordinary appearance, he was not very passionate in the first place, and now his heart was as calm as still water.

But since he was already at her house, and with the face of his cousin aunt, he had to go through the motions.

First, the two families exchanged pleasantries and talked roughly. Then Chen Feng and she went upstairs to her room to chat alone.

Chen Feng told her frankly that he had just divorced and his monthly salary in Xiuzhou was around 3,000 yuan.

Under normal circumstances, even if a female teacher had an ordinary appearance, she would definitely have eliminated him directly.

But the female teacher knew that he had invested hundreds of thousands to open a car wash, which was obviously revealed by Chen Feng’s mother.

The persona of being penniless and without a career was no longer valid.

As for Chen Feng’s appearance, there was even less of a problem. Even though he was a little fat now, he was still very handsome. Otherwise, Shen Lin would not have fallen for him in the first place.

So, what made Chen Feng a little speechless was that after a perfunctory chat, the female teacher seemed to be more and more interested in him.

In the end, if Chen Feng hadn’t taken the initiative to say goodbye, she would have continued to chat with him.

After saying goodbye to his cousin aunt and getting back in the car, Zhao Xiaolan quickly asked for her son’s opinion.

Chen Feng shook his head directly, “Not my type.”

“Why don’t you like her? Her conditions are so good. Although she is not very beautiful, she is not ugly either. Her parents also seem to be very easy to talk to.”

“If I don’t like her, I don’t like her. This is for a lifetime. Do I have to force myself?”

As soon as Chen Feng said this, Zhao Xiaolan could only sigh with regret.

However, the woman’s side obviously took a fancy to Chen Feng. The next day, the cousin aunt called to confirm this, and also said that the female teacher had sent Chen Feng a WeChat message but he hadn’t replied. What was going on?

Zhao Xiaolan could only awkwardly say her son’s meaning. As a matchmaker, when the cousin aunt saw that Chen Feng had not taken a fancy to the female teacher, her face was obviously a little ugly.

At the beginning, it was Zhao Xiaolan who begged her to help with the matchmaking. The woman’s side also agreed to this blind date because of her face. As a result, now the female teacher did not dislike your son for being divorced, but your son disliked her.

What is this?

Zhao Xiaolan could only apologize repeatedly. But in this way, she could no longer expect this cousin to introduce her son to anyone in the future.

And Chen Feng finally temporarily got rid of the predicament of being forced to go on blind dates at home, and his application to return to Xiuzhou was finally approved by his mother.
