Chapter 229: Random Matchmaking

Shen Qingqing slept until dinner time.

Strictly speaking, this was the first day of her vacation, so it was normal for her to sleep a little longer.

The elders didn't say anything, but Shen Qingqing still felt a little embarrassed.

They set the table, serve food to the elders, and rush to do all the work.

She used to be like this.

Now, the elders don’t treat her as a guest.

If she is not allowed to do anything, it would seem awkward.

This time when they returned home, Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun finally sat together openly.

It’s not like before, when they sat on each side.

It's not like before, when I deliberately kept my distance.

"Have a meal!"

The old man was in a good mood and looked energetic, and he looked a few years younger.

Shen Qingqing picked up the tender stewed meat and handed it to the old man. "Today's food smells so good. Please eat more."

The meal was cooked by Jiang's mother. With just one word and one action, she made the two of them happy.

Jiang's mother: "Your job is so hard. You are either in meetings or dealing with various things. Now that you have a day off, you should eat more to replenish your body."

Jiang Zhixun tilted his head to look at Shen Qingqing, "No wonder you've become so tired and thin."

"How can it be so exaggerated?"

"I'm telling the truth."

The weather was cold and the clothes she wore were thick, but she still looked so slim and not bloated at all.

Isn't it just that you have lost weight?

Shen Qingqing didn't believe Jiang Zhixun's judgment.

She feels that she is neither fat nor thin, and does not need to lose weight or gain weight.

If you accidentally gain weight, many of your clothes won't fit when the weather gets warmer.

Don’t be fooled by Jiang Zhixun!

Shen Qingqing thought so.

There were a few pieces of ribs in the bowl. Jiang Zhixun ate while picking up some food for Shen Qingqing.

With a faint smile on his face, he seemed to be enjoying the feeding.

Shen Qingqing sighed helplessly, "No need to clip it for me."

"Um."

He agreed quickly but didn't hold back.

Jiang's mother thought to herself, the brat is actually caring and thick-skinned, but it's a pity that he didn't realize it back then and had to make trouble.

Otherwise, the children at home would have been able to help with cooking by now!

If they had a child at that time, she would have taken care of it, and it wouldn't affect the couple's work now.

How nice.

Jiang's mother was in a state of confusion, but Shen Qingqing and Jiang Zhixun were unaware of it.

Shen Qingqing stretched her legs out and touched Jiang Zhixun, signaling him to stop and not pick up any more food for her.

As a result, the man climbed up the pole and his strong and powerful long legs pressed tightly against her.

Even through the fabric, you can feel the strong and firm muscles.

Shen Qingqing dodged, but he came close again.

He appears calm on the surface, but he is busy beneath the table.

Jiang Zhixun eats very quickly, a habit he has developed over the years.

Not rude, giving the feeling of eating deliciously.

Seeing the faint smile on his lips, Shen Qingqing wanted to pinch him.

This person did it on purpose.

He is shameless and not afraid of being discovered by his elders, but he still wants to drag her into it!

Jiang Zhixun was the first to put down his bowl and chopsticks, and the elders were used to it.

I ignored him and just told Shen Qingqing to eat more.

"Your father and I bought some more dry goods. Go check them out after dinner. If there's anything missing, you and Zhixun can go out and buy some tomorrow."

Shen Qingqing nodded, "Okay."

Jiang's mother added, "On New Year's Day, relatives will come to visit. If you want to have some quiet time, go out and play. Come back and say hello to them when it's time for dinner."

Shen Qingqing couldn't help laughing, "Wouldn't that be impolite?"

Jiang's mother: "Although we are relatives, not everyone can get along with us. We just need to deal with it during the holidays. If someone finds it impolite, they can choose not to associate with us."

Shen Qingqing came to the compound very early and had met all the relatives of the Jiang family.

She also knows everyone, including those from Jiang's mother's family.

It was just an illness, and I have no recollection of it anymore.

Jiang's mother told her everything, and finally joked, "There is a nephew on my mother's side. He was stunned when he saw you for the first time. At that time, everyone joked about pairing you two up."

"Mom!" Jiang Zhixun said in a dissatisfied tone.

It turns out that they had brought together Qingqing and her cousin, Qingqing and Qin Wenqiang... so many people, but they never thought of letting him have such a good thing.

Fortunately, Qingqing had her own ideas and didn't listen to them. Otherwise, if she had married someone else, what would he have to do with her?

Jiang's mother glared at him and said, "What are you doing? If you don't want to listen, just leave and don't disturb our conversation."

Jiang Zhixun said dryly, "Let's talk about something else. They are all married. If you continue to talk about this, it will affect other people's marital relationships, which will be bad."

A smile flashed across Jiang's mother's eyes. "You know that she's married, so why are you still so petty?"

Jiang Zhixun is just narrow-minded.

I don't want any other man to have anything to do with Shen Qingqing.

His possessiveness exploded, and he wished he could go back to the past and marry Shen Qingqing home before his elders made random arrangements for them.

"Qingqing doesn't like them, and you keep talking about them. Do you want to make her waver?"

Shen Qingqing was embarrassed, "Why am I wavering?"

"They like you." This was said sourly.

Shen Qingqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "That's all in the past, don't make trouble for no reason."

"That's right." Jiang's mother agreed, "Others have eyes and know that Qingqing is a good girl. They like her. That's because they have good vision. They are not like some people who are so stupid that they almost lost their good wives."

Jiang Zhixun felt a chill on his back after being looked at meaningfully by Shen Qingqing.

"That's all in the past. Hasn't it been changed now?"

"That won't erase your dark history."

Jiang Zhixun couldn't answer.

The hand under the table was secretly placed on Shen Qingqing's leg.

Carefully stroking it, there is a kind of flattering feeling.

He couldn't change what happened in the past, but he would definitely not make the same mistake again in the future.

Shen Qingqing put her left hand under the table, trying to move Jiang Zhixun's hand away, but he held her hand instead.

Their palms touched, their body temperatures as hot as ever.

Shen Qingqing hadn't finished her meal yet, and was afraid that the elders would notice something unusual, so she pulled away and Jiang Zhixun let go.

He didn't cause any more trouble.

Sit in your seat properly and wait for them to finish their meal.

As we chatted and ate at the same time, the meal took half an hour longer than usual.

After dinner, Shen Qingqing had to wash the dishes and clean the house.

Jiang's mother didn't stop him, "Zhixun, you two go together."

In the past, Shen Qingqing often rushed to do housework, and when Jiang Zhixun was on vacation at home, he would divide the work with her.

Jiang's mother had the illusion that time was going backwards.

The difference is that this time Zhixun didn't treat Qingqing with a cold face.

The two of them squeezed in the kitchen, and Shen Qingqing was almost speechless.

"Go wipe the table and sweep the floor."

Jiang Zhixun said calmly: "Wash first and then dry."

Shen Qingqing threw the dishcloth to him and said, "Wash it yourself."

Jiang Zhixun didn't want Shen Qingqing to work, he just wanted to stay with her for a while longer.

After the New Year, he will return to the team.

Qingqing's vacation only lasted a few days, and since everyone had started working, they had fewer opportunities to meet.

"Leave it to me."

Shen Qingqing: "Then what should I do?"

Jiang Zhixun: "Accompany me."

The man rolled up his sleeves, revealing his wheat-colored arms. His muscles were smooth and powerful, but not exaggerated to the point of being scary.

He raised his right hand and said, "Wife, help me take off my watch."

Shen Qingqing suddenly recalled some confusing images.

Afraid of hurting her, he coaxed her to help him get his watch in this way several times.

And the belt...

"Why is your face so red?"

The man looked at her teasingly, "Shen Qingqing, are you thinking the wrong thing?"

"No." The answer came quickly.

There was even more mockery in Jiang Zhixun's eyes. He didn't say anything, but Shen Qingqing was the first to give in.

She rudely took the watch off his wrist and left the kitchen without looking back.
