Chapter 32 You can have your cake and eat it too
My uncle's house is in Jingtai Community on Nanhe Road. It used to be the city center. Now that Jiangcheng has developed for so many years, the municipal government has moved to the Nanwan area, and Jingtai Community has become an old community.

On the way there, Zhou Ping called his uncle.

Find out in advance.

As a result, my uncle said in a helpless tone, "Xiaoping, do you remember the girl I introduced to you last time?"

"Ah...Uncle, you mean, my aunt asked me to come over for dinner. Yes, to go on a blind date with that girl?"

Zhou Ping's mouth twitched.

He had forgotten about it long ago.

Moreover, he was now almost reaching the spiritual energy level of a formal practitioner, and was fully focused on cultivation, so he had no time to think about blind dates.

My uncle replied, "Yes, I had originally agreed with your aunt to postpone this blind date, but then somehow your aunt started chatting with the girl's mother, and they got along really well. Later, she met the girl again."

"Your aunt thinks he's quite good. He's well-educated, intelligent, and although not particularly pretty, he's attractive. That's why she arranged this for you."

Zhou Ping:......

He really wanted to say that he didn't need a blind date.

But the words didn't come out of my mouth.

After all, everyone is invited.

If I don't go, it will be so embarrassing.

When he went to travel to Mount Tai, he was stood up.

This kind of thing is nothing.

But if you were the person involved, the feeling would be different.

"Uncle, is it only the girl from home who is here, or are her parents here too?"

"Her mother is accompanying us. Just think of it as a chance to have a meal and get to know each other. Don't feel pressured. I've talked to an old friend about this, and he wants you to give him a chance. As a young man, it's good to make more friends."

Zhou Ping was stunned. Not long ago, his aunt had been begging others for a chance, but he never expected that it would be his turn now.

Come to Jingtai Community.

He parked the car in the road next to his aunt's house with ease.

After getting off the car.

He saw his uncle standing not far away and waving at him.

"Why are you still buying things?"

Zhou Ping chuckled and said, "I can't go empty-handed, so I bought some food for Tongtong."

The uncle glared at him and said, "You, just spoil Tongtong."

Carrying things upstairs.

Walk through the door.

He saw a pretty and quiet girl sitting on the sofa teaching Tongtong to read.

"elder brother."

Tongtong glanced at Zhou Ping and went to greet him happily.

My aunt, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard the noise and called out, "Is Xiaoping here?"

My uncle replied.

Then he went to the kitchen to get the dishes.

When Zhou Ping saw the girl's mother, he greeted her, "Hello, Auntie."

The auntie smiled and praised, "Not bad, very energetic, no wonder Xiaoyan praises you every day. If a girl marries him, it must be a blessing from her past life."

People who run companies really know how to talk.

He and his aunt were praised in every way.

My aunt laughed so hard that she couldn't stop. "You, don't praise him... Xiaoping, go to the living room and get some apples to wash."

As he said this, he gave a wink.

Zhou Ping understood.

While delivering the apples, I chatted with the girl for a while.

He could sense the other person's awkwardness. If it were his old self, he would have felt the same way. However, with his cultivation, he had become more and more confident. Facing this sudden blind date again, he actually felt a sense of relief. During the meal.

The aunt asked some questions related to Zhou Ping, but did not involve cultivation. She only asked about his previous work and family situation.

"You young people should talk to each other more. My daughter has rarely interacted with people her own age since she came back from abroad. If you have time, you can take her out for a walk and let her experience the cultural landscape of our country."

"Okay, Auntie."

The meal was quite harmonious.

Although most of the conversation was between the girl's mother and aunt, it would occasionally turn to him and the girl, and he would blurt out some information.

It's almost nine o'clock in the evening.

Zhou Ping and his aunt sent the mother and daughter away.

arrive home.

My aunt smiled and asked, "How is this girl? Is she okay?"

The appearance is really attractive.

It also has the elegance of oriental classics and the charm of Jiangnan.

Compared with Chen Xue.

Less gorgeous.

Before Zhou Ping could even describe his first impression, his uncle couldn't help but say, "We've only met once, how can we tell? Besides, Xiaoping is focusing on cultivation right now, so why would he want to be distracted by a relationship? That's just losing sight of the big picture!"

My aunt glared at my uncle and said, "It's precisely because of cultivation that we need someone to take care of the family. We need to feed, wash clothes, and clean the house. We need to find a virtuous and sensible girl so that Xiaoping can focus on cultivation."

My uncle retorted, "I can take care of you, but if they're not a good match, how are we going to live together in the future? Don't forget, Xiaoping is a cultivator and a member of the Special Security Department. He has a bright future, so he should find someone he can talk to and share his joys and sorrows with..."

"Mr. Chen, what do you mean by that? Are you dissatisfied with me because I have no common topics with you?"

I saw the two of them were about to quarrel.

Zhou Ping hurriedly said, "Aunt, Uncle, both of you have a point, but you can't have your cake and eat it too. You have to make a choice."

My aunt shook her head. "Why can't I have both? You're not an ordinary person."

Zhou Ping was suddenly speechless.

I wondered when my aunt's ideas became so open.

My uncle didn't say anything. Although he didn't agree, he didn't refute it either.

Wait until it's time to leave.

The uncle patted Zhou Ping's shoulder and said meaningfully, "You better take it easy in the future, don't be too sentimental. Remember, cultivation is the foundation."

Zhou Ping was a little confused.

Return to Jiayuan Community.

When Chen Xue sent him a message asking what he was doing, he told her about his blind date.

"Shocked/You still want to go on a blind date?"

"I'm 35, it's normal to go on blind dates."

"No, you are a cultivator-to-be. If you want to get married, there are countless girls lining up to meet you."

The status of practitioners is higher than that of civil servants with iron rice bowls. Even those who are about to practice receive a fixed subsidy every month.

Chen Xue quickly typed again, "What does the girl look like?"

Zhou Ping said, "Not bad. He studied abroad and can play the piano and folk dance..."

See these.

Chen Xue couldn't help but say jealously, "Congratulations, you found a good girl."

Zhou Ping said, "Whether she is a good girl or not, I don't know, but my aunt said that you can have your cake and eat it, but I don't know what that means."

After a while.

Chen Xuecai said seriously, "According to what I've learned, over 80% of prospective practitioners keep mistresses after marriage. This is especially true after becoming formal practitioners, who are more open about it. Although the country still maintains the corresponding system, it has already turned a blind eye to this kind of thing."

"You must have encountered a lot of disputes in this area in the Security Department. Your aunt probably wants you to find a few more."
