Chapter 583. Handsome Second
Old Madam Jiang went in with the vegetable basket. Mother Guo came out of the house and saw her daughter alone. She couldn't help but said, "Didn't you see him come out? He must be walking around. Why didn't you follow and go together?"
Guo Miao Jun pursed her mouth and responded, "He didn't invite me."
Mother Guo said: "What age is it now? Why are you still holding back like this? If he didn't invite you, take the initiative. Say you'll take him around, right?"
She felt that her daughter was really a wooden block and continued: "He just came here and isn't familiar with this side. This is a good opportunity. Why didn't you know to grasp it?"
"Mom, why do you say that? You had even said that I'm good. He would like me. Chasing after him would make my value drop, right?" Guo Miao Jun uttered.
Mother Guo rolled her eyes and said, "Forget it. You know what kind of household is Zhou Family. What's more, I can tell that they must have had a child by accident. They came here to nurture the pregnancy. They will definitely return to the capital. Don't you want to go to Beijing with them?"
Lin Qing He's belly was getting bigger and bigger now. Who didn't know? However, their household registration wasn't here. So reporting was useless. People don't care, especially since they were close with old Jiang Family. No one will do this thankless thing.
This was perfectly in line with Mother Guo's wishes. If her daughter and Zhou Family's son matched up, then this property will be reserved for her family!
"You have to be more promising, understand? Don't be reserved? The young lad is good-looking and have money at home. What's more, they got the capital's household registration. Don’t use the tricks you used with others or he might return to the capital someday. See if you won't cry then!" Mother Guo said in displeasure.
When these words came out, Guo Miao Jun became a little nervous. She spoke: "Mom, how about you drop by Granny Jiang's and inquire?"
"Not inquiring now. When you date him, it's not too late to talk about it. Inquire what now?" Mother Guo replied.
This old Jiang Family only know to ruin things. Last time was the house. Maybe they'll find a distant niece to come and stir it up if they knew they wanted to match with old Zhou.
Because Mother Guo's careful planning, Lin Qing He, Zhou Qing Bai, and old Jiang Family didn't know what was going on.
Old Madam Jiang had encountered Guo Miao Jun being dressed up a few times. She mentioned it to Lin Qing He during their small talks.
Lin Qing He said: "Don't know if this old Guo Family had made a fortune recently. Their mentality is different."
Wasn't it different? Even old Madam Guo, who rolled her eyes when she saw her and her Qing Bai in the past, seemed to be sweet and lighthearted.
When passing by yesterday, she had asked her if she wanted to eat tomatoes?
It made Lin Qing He shocked. She liked to eat sweet and sour tomatoes, but she only picked them from next door, old Madam Jiang's yard. She will never eat from this side.
But this matter made people's mind boggled.
One can't wrap their head around. Lin Qing He said, "Qing Bai bought a lot of sea fish this morning. Later, you can take a few back, Aunt."
"Keep it for yourself. I bought one on the street this morning. It's enough for both of us." Old Madam Jiang replied.
Lin Qing He watched her do her crafts and wondered, "Auntie, do you make money by doing this kind of craft?"
Old Madam Jiang was working on knitted hats. It can't be regarded as knitting. It was crocheting. One hook after another. Old Madam Jiang was very fast.
Old Madam Jiang was only in her early 50s this year. She can crochet almost one hat a day.
Old Madam Jiang jollily answered, "I'm idle, so I brought some back home to work on. It doesn't make much money. About ten or so yuan in a month. It's enough for expenses."
Of course, her son was filial. He gave them living expenses every month. They had very little spending. They have a vegetable garden in their backyard, so they occasionally buy some eggs and fish.
The main thing was that she can’t stay idle. It was good to have something to do. Keep the income as pocket money.
Lin Qing He nodded and grabbed a book to read.
"I heard from Xiao Geng that he is going to take exams for the capital's university in the future. This brat must have liked it last time. If he really go over, please don't spoil him, Qing He. You should lecture when you should." Old Madam Jiang said.
"Xiao Geng is open-minded. He will definitely be successful in the future. Auntie, you don't have to worry about him." Lin Qing He stated.
Old Madam Jiang grinned: "I don't hope for anything else. As long as he can be like his second and third brothers, then I won't worry about him."
As they spoke, Zhou Xuan came back from outside. He brought Jiang Geng with him. He had just went to play basketball. The sweat was almost dry when he came back.
As they spoke, Zhou Xuan came back from outside. He brought Jiang Geng with him. He had just went to play basketball. The sweat was almost dry when he came back.
"Don't come here. Smell so sweaty. Go take a bath quickly." Lin Qing He sent him as soon as she saw Second heading over.
Helpless, Zhou Xuan looked at Jiang Geng, "You wash up in a bit too."
"Second Brother, you go first." Jiang Geng nodded.
"How is your second brother's skills?" Lin Qing He smiled.
"Godly powerful." Jiang Geng was convinced whether it was Zhou Xuan or Zhou Gui Lai. Put aside Zhou Gui Lai, since he was a sporty type at first glance. However, he didn't expect his gentle scholarly second brother to be so skillful at basketball too.
"There were just a lot of girls around in the park. They were all watching at Second Brother. Also the grandpas and grannies were inquiring about Second Brother's family." Jiang Geng wanted to laugh when he said this.
Last time, some people wanted to ask about his third brother. His third brother replied: "Grandpa, you can save your thoughts, I'm only seventeen years old. Still in school!"
It made the grandpa delighted, saying attending school wasn't a problem. How about meeting his granddaughter first? First get engaged, then date after graduation?
This time it was his second elder brother's turn. His second elder brother didn't care about this. He just played basketball and left when he finished playing. It was very cold.
Lin Qing He smiled: "They look highly of him."
"Such a young man. Which family with a girl around the same age won't consider it. If our family does, I want to see if there is that fate to connect them." Old Madam Jiang merrily said.
"Auntie, don't tease." Lin Qing He was amused.
After a while, Zhou Xuan came back from his wash up. He felt refreshed. And looked really handsome. That figure and that face. It wasn't worse than the stars on the TV.
The three Zhou brothers got the figure and the good looks.
When Jiang Geng saw that he was done washing, he also went to wash up. He had clothes here. He was studying hard recently and he specially brought it here.
Because he came here to eat and study, Xue Mei Li often got him to bring some fruits over, even when they were godparents and godchild.
Although Zhou Family didn't mind. she can't take it into consideration.
When old Madam Jiang and Jiang Geng were present, Zhou Xuan didn't say much about it. Once the grandparents and grandchild went back, Zhou Xuan asked his mom, "Mom, where is my dad? Why do I felt he is busy?"
Everyday, he drove out.

ReplyDeleteSo the sentence Zhou Xian asked I think it should be 'Mom where is my dad? Why do I feel he is busy?'

ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter 🥰❤️
Thanks for the chapter.
ReplyDeleteWith all the huge emphasis on how handsome and scholarly Zhou Xuan is I won't find it surprising if he took a sharp turn and actually become an actor/idol considering how many artistic talents he already has stacked up under his belt.
ReplyDeleteCringey story with no plot at all.
ReplyDelete'However, their household registration wasn't here. So reporting was useless.'
ReplyDeleteThis isn't really useless in reality.
