Chapter 585: Dismissing
When old Madam Jiang's words came out, the smile on Mother Guo's face slight faltered. She knew old Jiang Family will have ill-intention.
"But Xiao Geng's Second Brother is still in college. I heard that he will continue to study. I'm too embarrassed to introduce my distant niece. What's more, it will take a long time before his graduation. I'll think about it later. Anyway, it won't happen now." Old Madam Jiang spoke.
"How can it not happen now?" Mother Guo casually responded.
"Of course, it won't. After the introduction, how long do she have to wait for him? And even if she wait, what if he goes to university and meets a better girl? I'm thinking of waiting for Xiao Geng's Second Brother to graduate before discussing anything. At that time, he won't meet female classmates of the same level. Better time to date." Old Madam Jiang analyzed.
Have to say, old Madam Jiang's words sounded quite reasonable.
She found out the reason for old Guo Family's change of attitude during this time. It turned out to be such intention. Still, she didn't cut of their thoughts. After all, Lin Qing He got a big belly now. Who knows what kind of moral this old Jiang Family have?
So she didn't give a concrete dead end. She used the delay tactics. Once the baby is born, it didn't matter.
Although Mother Guo felt what old Madam Jiang said was reasonable, she still persisted: "If they got engaged first, then it's not possible to date another, right?"
"Look what you say. We are in a big city, Hai City. It's not uncommon for people to get divorced, let alone split up before marriage." Old Madam Jiang responded.
This was the honest truth.
It wasn't the rural area. Once one get married, it was for a lifetime. Very few divorced as it was considered shameful. While, there are more divorces in big cities in the past few years.
Mother Guo hesitated: "This Zhou Family doesn't seem like that kind of household either."
"Though those words sounds right, but the female party are the one who suffer more in the end." Old Madam Jiang pointed out.
Mother Guo internally agrees. If that come true, wouldn't it be her daughter at the disadvantage? However, old Zhou Family dares to make her daughter suffer, then they see that her family aren't a vegetarian. At that time, give the house to her family as compensation!
So Mother Guo smiled and said, "It's better to get engaged first, Auntie. What do you think of my Miao Jun?"
Old Madam Jiang became impatient with this old Guo Family. She put everything out so clearly and she still didn't know to retreat at roadblock.
At this time, Zhou Xuan just came over. He came to pick cucumbers to eat. When he saw Mother Guo, he greeted with an 'Auntie'. Then he turned to Old Madam Jiang: "Granny Jiang, I'll pick a cucumber to eat."
"Pick it." Old Madam Jiang spoke.
Mother Guo smiled lovingly when she saw him. With a beam, she spoke: "No need to pick it. I have brought a lot of it. Take it and eat it."
"Go to the backyard to pick. Pick more and bring more for your auntie to take back." Before Zhou Xuan could respond, old Madam Jiang stated.
Can let them eat things from old Guo's house.
Zhou Xuan went to pick the cucumbers. Old Madam Jiang said to Mother Guo: "Really you. Your mother-in-law live prudently and you still bring cucumbers over. When she find out, she'll chew you out. Take more back."
Mother Guo's words were all stuffed back. Originally, she thought old Madam Jiang was being nosy. But after hearing this, there was nothing to say.
Zhou Xuan picked four to five out. He washed one to eat. The rest was for Mother Guo.
Mother Guo jollily said, "younglad, I don't even know what your name is."
"Auntie is polite. My name is Zhou Xuan." Second munched on the cucumber as he answered.
"Zhou Xuan, I heard your granny Jiang say that you are still in college?" Mother Guo smiled.
"En." Zhou Xuan nodded.
"Do you have a match?" Mother Guo asked.
"Auntie must be joking. Have what match now? I'm still studying. The soonest have to wait until I graduate and have a job. Otherwise I don't have any money. How can I support my match?" Zhou Xuan responded.
Old Madam Jiang gave a thumbs up in her heart. Well said.
How could Mother Guo give up so easily. It wouldn't be her if she did: "How can you say that? Your family don't lack money."
"Auntie, you're wrong. My family's conditions are average. What's more, dating is my own business. What does it have to do with my family?" Zhou Xuan said while eating cucumber.
Mother Guo internally called him an rash youth. He didn't understand anything. How can one not look at the other's family when dating? The other party's family was mattered.
"Studying is more important." Old Madam Jiang spoke.
"Yeah. A lot of people want to introduce someone to me. But I don't have any thoughts in this aspect now. Wait until later." Zhou Xuan stated.
Although Mother Guo failed to recommend her daughter out, she didn't think it was a failure. After all, it can't be helped since he had to study. For now, the two families interact. If her daughter hasn't found a good one in the future, then it won't be too late to think about it again.
Mother Guo left. Zhou Xuan finished the cucumber and then went on to pick tomato to eat. He spoke to old Madam Jiang, "Granny Jiang, I'm going back first."
"Go back." Old Madam Jiang nodded. She didn't tell him about old Guo Family's intention. After all, she was going back to the capital for study soon.
She waited for Lin Qing He to come back.
Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai went out for a stroll for more than forty minutes before they returned. With such a belly, it wasn't a good idea to do other exercises. However, strolling was excellent.
And after walking around in a circle, her stomach was a little hungry again. She wanted to eat.
It must be pointed out that she ate a sweet potato and a corn on the cob before going out!
"Hungry?" Zhou Qing Bai merrily asked.
Lin Qing He gave him an eye roll. Zhou Qing Bai went in and took out the mung bean soup.
Although the mung bean soup had a cooling affect, pregnant women can still eat a bit without any affect. Just don't freeze it.
The sweet mung bean soup tasted delicious, but it can't sate the hunger. She watched TV for a while after the two bowls of mung bean soup. It was about enough.
But by this time Zhou Qing Bai had already begun to prepare dinner.
A yellow croaker, a winter melon pork rib soup, a stir-fried cabbage, and a potato stew. All served with rice.
Lin Qing He dropped by old Madam Jiang as an after-meal exercise. Because it was next door, Zhou Qing Bai didn't follow her.
He missed out on hearing about old Guo Family's matter from old Madam Jiang.
After listening, Lin Qing He fully understood old Guo family's intention.
She was saying, why had her attitude changed for a while? Turned out to eyeing on her second child.
She had indeed seen Guo Miao Jun. She can't really casually judge the girl. Still, she wasn't suitable for her second child.
And even if she was, have to think twice. That old Guo Family looked like troublemakers at first glance.
"Your stomach is so big now. It's not better to not make matters worse. So just drag it like that. Talk about it later. Maybe her daughter can't wait and marry early." Old Madam Jiang said.
Lin Qing He nodded, but didn't comment too much.
But it was really like what old Madam Jiang said. This Mother Guo just finished mentioning it and a matchmaker came knocking to her house. Saying they want to form a marriage.
