Fifty, no electricity (2)

  "Have you ever met a girl like this before?" Lan Qi asked.

  The burlap sack nodded, "In my university days, once while waiting for the bus, I met a girl with long hair flowing over her shoulders, wearing a white princess dress and holding several books. Unfortunately, when I came to my senses and wanted to go up and greet her, she had already gotten on the bus. Then, I never met such a girl who made my heart skip a beat again."

  "Gunny sack, how many times have you fallen in love?" Lan Qi asked.

  "Twice, but both times didn't even last a month before we broke up," said Mai Dai, pouting.

  "Gunny sack, what you're looking for is that kind of girl who's very simple, very kind, very elegant, very quiet, very virtuous, very understanding and considerate, also very refined and cultivated? Like a fairy who doesn't eat human food, light and airy?" I asked.

  "I don't know either, maybe," said Ma Dai, nodding his head.

  "This society is tough," Lan Qi said, "girls like water lilies or lotus flowers, who are untouched by the world, are almost extinct. I think you should stop wasting your time and find someone compatible to spend the rest of your life with."

  "Let me think, I'm 25 this year. If I still can't find someone in three years, I'll just find a down-to-earth girl and live a simple life. It's just that right now, I'm not quite willing to give up yet," said Ma Dai.

  "What if you compromise and get married, but then a year later, you suddenly find your ideal girl? What would you do? Get a divorce?" I asked.

  "I think divorce is unlikely, after all, getting married is a big deal for me, and for girls, it's a crucial part of life. Isn't there a saying that goes 'men fear entering the wrong profession, women fear marrying the wrong man'? So, since this girl has married me, I must take responsibility for it. Even if another girl appears, no matter how good she is, I can only let her go," said Mai Dai.

  "Alright, rice bag, so I'll support you. Use three years' time and wait for a romantic feeling to appear. Previously, I thought that with your good conditions, you would be picky and choosy, looking down on those girls," I said with a smile.

  "To be honest, from an emotional perspective, I've always thought of myself as a very traditional man, so I want to find a traditional girl. I also know that in this society, it's almost impossible, but I still want to try and look for one," said Mai Dai.

  "To be honest, a girl like that can't possibly exist," Lan Qi said. "Because this society doesn't allow for her existence."

  "You mean that these conditions are too demanding, and as the saying goes, 'gold is not perfect, people are not perfect'?" I asked.

  "I also know that there is no one who is absolutely perfect in this world, but I think that this world can have people who are close to perfection. It's with this belief that I've gone on blind dates again and again, been disappointed again and again, and picked up hope once more," Ma Dai said with a smile. "I detest those who deceive and toy with girls' emotions, so if it's not the kind of girl I'm looking for, I'll make it clear to her and absolutely won't leave any room for illusions or entanglements."

  "Ah, we've arrived at the teahouse." As he spoke, a loud screeching sound was heard as the brakes were applied, and the car came to a stop in front of a teahouse.

  I lifted my head and saw a flag flying in the air with the wind, on which was written "Fushunju Tea House" in five big characters.
