Mao Xiaolu looked at Zhou Xiang enviously, "Zhou Xiang! Tell me, can I really find a man like Ling Ran who is willing to marry and is gentle and obedient?"

"The first condition is love. It depends on whether he loves you deeply enough. If he loves you deeply enough, then anything is possible. If it's the other way around, and you love him more deeply, then I advise you not to look for a son-in-law, but to get married directly."

"But my parents."

"We've agreed to the terms. I won't marry into your family, but I'll be responsible for your parents' retirement."

Mao Xiaolu nodded, "Okay! If you don't even agree to this condition, then you might as well continue to be single."

Zhou Xiang nodded and said nothing more. Once a woman starts to fall in love, who can still be so clear-headed? Unless, she doesn't love.

No, she did love him, but without the impulse of young people, she and Ling Ran both had the mentality of old people.

When they arrived at the warehouse building, Mao Xiaolu said with a smile: "I have to speed up and try to get a wedding house as soon as possible."

"As a grown-up girl, even if she could say this, she would keep her voice down."

Mao Xiaolu nodded, "Okay, okay! I'll be more reserved."

After calling out to open the courtyard door for Sister Guo, Lv Jing and Lv Ying wanted to stay outside, but Zhou Xiang pulled them into the house. "Silly! Standing outside in such a cold weather? It's warm inside.

From now on, you must listen to me and not imitate what you see on TV."

"yes."

"yes."

Seeing Zhou Xiang bringing people over, Guo Xuehua was about to make tea for them, but was stopped by Zhou Xiang, "Sister Guo, don't bother. Let me introduce you. This is Mao Xiaolu, my eldest brother's senior sister. She's an older, left-over woman who came to the market town to pick up some handsome guys and is looking for a job with me."

Mao Xiaolu didn't care about Zhou Xiang's introduction at all. She extended her hand to Guo Xuehua, "Hello, Sister Guo! I admire you very much. You can endure in that house for your daughter, and you can also stand up for your daughter. You are so brave.

Especially since you are willing to live with your four daughters, even if you have to beg for money in the later stage, you still want to keep them by your side. That is really amazing."

Guo Xuehua rubbed his hands on his clothes before reaching out to shake hands with Mao Xiaolu.

"Hello, Miss Mao! I'm really embarrassed by what you said. I'm not that great. If it weren't for Miss Zhou taking pity on us mothers and giving us work and food, we wouldn't know where we'd be now!"

Mao Xiaolu nodded. "Yes, you should thank her. However, not everyone is willing to take care of her. You still have your own unique personality charm."

"Miss Mao, you're too kind."

Zhou wanted to change the subject, not wanting to be flattered by the two anymore. "Mao Xiaolu, wait downstairs. Sister Guo and I will go upstairs to get some things."

Mao Xiaolu waved her hand and said, "Go ahead!"

Lu Jing wanted to follow, but Zhou wanted to keep her. "I have something private to say to Sister Guo, and we're indoors, so there's no need to follow."

"yes."

Lu Jing retreated obediently.

In the room upstairs, Guo Xuehua took out three fake quilts she had made and placed them on the bed. Inside the quilts were the dolls she had sewn.

The doll was sewn based on the drawing that Guo Jia brought back. It looked at least six or seven times like Haohao and the others. It wore a cotton hat of a different color on its forehead, and the quilt was wrapped up to its neck, leaving only its small face exposed.

Standing by the bed and looking at them, it really looks like the three babies are sleeping. When I pick them up, how heavy are they?

"Sister Guo, what did you add? This weight is about the same."

“I sewed wooden strips inside to support the doll’s body and give it weight.”

"Sister Guo is really thoughtful. Very good. I'll take it away now."

Having said that, he 'took' away the three blankets.

Guo Xuehua picked up three more blankets that were the same as the one he had just used to wrap the dolls. On the day of the hundred-day banquet, the three treasures would be wrapped in these three blankets.

After Zhou Xiang had also 'collected' it, she took out the remaining money. Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "This is your bonus. You've worked hard these past few days. Are Lv Jing and Lv Ying's clothes ready?"

"It's all done. I plan to go back to work this afternoon!"

"We'll take the clothes away now. You can go back to work anytime."

"Um!"

After the two went downstairs, Mao Xiaolu planned to go back.

"Wait, Lv Jing and Lv Ying, try the clothes on. If anything doesn't fit, ask Sister Guo to modify it."

Zhou wanted to find an excuse to keep him, but who knew whether Lu Zhaochong had finished his confession?

At Zhou's house, as soon as Mao Xiaolu left, Lu Zhaochong found an excuse to drag Zhou Nian away. Zhou Nian, who couldn't break free, was forcibly dragged into the alley by him.

"What are you doing?"

As soon as Lu Zhaochong let go, Zhou Nian angrily questioned him.

"Zhou Nian, from the first time I saw you, when you teased Tongtong in the car, I fell in love with your smile. Later, when I investigated your affairs, the more I got to know you, the more I felt sorry for you. I want to ask you to be my girlfriend. Are you willing?"

Zhou Nian raised his head in surprise, "My, my face."

"I don't mind."

"I do mind. Although Zhou Xiang said that this scar can be used to test people's hearts, with this scar, I can't go on a movie date with my boyfriend as if nothing happened. People will point fingers at me, and it will ruin an originally beautiful date. At the moment, I won't consider dating. I just want a stable job and a stable future."

"So, do you have feelings for me?"

"No!"

Zhou Nian threw down these two words, turned around and ran out of the alley.

But Lu Zhaochong smiled. This rabbit was shy even in front of Mao Xiaolu. He just spoke to him for a long time, and he didn't reply too quickly, which made him look even more obvious.

After exiting the alley, Zhou Nian ran back to his room upstairs, closed the door, and then pressed his pounding chest.

When Lu Zhaochong confessed his love to her, she was happy, but also sad, because she definitely couldn't have a normal relationship with her face.

Whenever they go out, they receive a lot of strange looks. If they are together, others will inevitably judge whether the man and woman are a good match. Everything from height, appearance, age to work and family are topics that the gossipy women discuss.

She has always known that falling in love is not only a matter between two people, but also a matter of everyone around them. How can a relationship last long without the blessing of a man and a woman?

Just now, Lu Zhaochong's confession really made her happy. It's not that she has no feelings for Lu Zhaochong. In recent times, he has always been hanging around in front of her. She has noticed it, but she just didn't dare to hope for it.

Now that her wish has come true, she doesn't have the courage to agree. If it's just for the sake of companionship and warmth, she will accept it, just like even if she was passively engaged, she had already imagined with great anticipation the small family she would have after marriage.

However, since she had feelings for Lu Zhaochong, she had to care about her face.

Since I rejected him and refused to admit that I had feelings for him, he should back off, right?

Throw yourself into the quilt, calm down the regret and irritability in your heart, forget it, just follow the goal, get a job first, and let things take their course in the future!

Mao Xiaolu came back and didn't see Zhou Nian. She asked others, and Yuanyuan pointed at the stairs and said, "He ran upstairs."

"Thank you, beautiful Yuanyuan." Mao Xiaolu squatted beside her and thanked her.

Yuanyuan smiled, "You're welcome."
