It was a smooth day, and it was time to get off work.
What a comfortable life.
Lu De Min left the Hongxing Military Control Station, carrying the books he borrowed from Wang Tong.
…
Union Medical College Hospital.
Wang Tong pushed her bicycle out of the hospital door, habitually looking at the spot where Lu De Min stood yesterday.
Although she knew that Lu De Min was unlikely to be there today, she still had some expectations in her heart.
Wang Tong rode her bicycle home.
As usual.
"Mom! I'm back!"
"My baby is back!"
However, recently, the mother and daughter have had more topics related to Lu De Min.
"Mom! Did you give Lu De Min the textbooks and materials?"
"I did! This young man is really hardworking!"
"What's up?"
"At noon, he didn't even take a break. He was learning Russian in the pavilion in the vegetable garden behind our unit! But to be honest, De Min is a genius. He's learned Russian quite well in such a short time. I'm thinking, should I give him a few months of leave to specifically review for the college entrance exams next year?"
"De Min is quite diligent and studious! I admire boys like that—if it's possible, it would be great!" Wang Tong listened to her mother's words, her eyes filled with admiration.
Qu Lin suddenly looked at her daughter, smiling strangely.
"Mom! Why are you looking at me like that?"
"My dear, do you have a crush on De Min? This De Min is really good, handsome, smart and studious, with a good character. Okay, if he gets into college, no matter which university, as long as it's a university, Mom will allow you to be together!"
Wang Tong's face turned red instantly, and she exclaimed, "Mom! You're playing matchmaker!"
Qu Lin said, "Well, if you don't like him, Mom will introduce him to other girls. Many of my colleagues and friends have daughters of suitable age who are waiting to be matched and married. De Min is so outstanding, Mom can definitely be the matchmaker!"
Wang Tong was in a panic: "Ah! Mom, don't!"
"Haha! See, look at how anxious you are. You still say you don't like him! Old ginger is still spicier. Mom found out right away!" Qu Lin chuckled triumphantly.
"Mom! You're annoying!" Wang Tong threw herself into her mother's arms.
"You're all grown up, there's nothing to be shy about when you meet a boy you like!" Qu Lin touched her daughter's head lovingly. The reason she treated Lu De Min so well, besides admiring his character, was mainly because of her daughter. She was a veteran, and she could tell from her daughter's reaction to talking about Lu De Min that her daughter had a liking for him.
It's also normal. Lu De Min is really handsome, and he has a good character.
If I was younger, I would have liked him too.
Unfortunately, I wasn't lucky enough to have freedom in love.
That's why I especially hope my daughter can have a free love.
"I do have some feelings for him. But I don't know what he thinks! Maybe he doesn't like me!" Wang Tong said in a low voice.
"My precious daughter is so beautiful and so outstanding. Which boy wouldn't like you! Don't worry, Mom will keep an eye on him. As long as you like him, he's my future son-in-law!" Qu Lin said cheerfully.
She only had one daughter, whom she treasured. She was afraid that her daughter would marry the wrong person. It was rare to find a boy that her daughter liked and she also approved of. This opportunity could not be missed.
"I don't want that!" Wang Tong snorted.
Qu Lin laughed again. Her daughter was being stubborn again.
This child, really.
