Seeing that the two of them were about to lose their spirits, Zhou Cuifen quickly changed the subject and said, "My mother even brought us some pickled mustard greens she made."
As she spoke, Zhou Cuifen took out a glass jar from the bag, which was filled with pickled mustard greens prepared by Zhang Xiu.
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "We all benefit from your help. We are grateful for your kindness."
Although these things are sold outside, they don’t taste as good as those made at home, and she, Lin Feng, and Lin Rui don’t know how to make them.
All the pickled vegetables that Zhang Xiurang brought last time were also eaten.
There are so many of them, and these things won’t last for more than a few meals.
"If you like to eat them, I will ask my mother to make more. These things are not expensive. You can pickle a lot by buying one or two dollars." Zhou Cuifen said.
"Let's do this." Lin Rui suggested, "I'll buy some more and ask Qinghua to take them back. I'll ask Aunt Zhang to help pickle them. This way, Aunt Zhang will have to work hard."
"That's fine." Zhou Cuifen nodded. "My mom is fine at home, so it's not too hard."
The family's current conditions are not very good. If Zhang Xiu spends too much money on pickling these things all the time, she will definitely feel bad.
It would be best if Lin Rui bought the groceries and brought them back. Anyway, Lin Rui's family is rich and doesn't care about these things. His family does the work and Lin Rui pays, so everyone is happy.
If her family tries to act rich, her mother will definitely feel bad.
"It's settled then." Lin Xiaoxiao made the final decision.
Zhou Cuifen nodded.
Lin Xiaoxiao thought of something and asked casually, "Cui Fen, when you go back this time, did anyone introduce you to someone?"
Zhou Cuifen didn't expect Lin Xiaoxiao to ask this, and her face suddenly turned red. Seeing this, Lin Rui was afraid that it would be inconvenient for him to chat with them, so he took a twist and went to sit aside.
Zhou Cuifen then said, "I recommended one. I saw it yesterday, but I didn't like it very much."
A person's insights are different, and their perspective on others will also change. If it was before entering the city, Zhou Cuifen might have agreed, but when she looks at that person now, she feels that he is not suitable for her.
"So it didn't work out!" Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, "How about I introduce someone to you?"
"ah?"
Zhou Cuifen didn't expect that Lin Xiaoxiao wanted to introduce her to someone. She felt that Lin Xiaoxiao was not the kind of person who loved gossip and would act as a matchmaker for others. For a moment, she was a little surprised.
"What?" Lin Xiaoxiao smiled. "You know him too, but I don't know if he's to your taste."
"I know him too?"
Zhou Cuifen thought carefully about all the people they knew in common, but couldn't think of anyone.
Finally, he guessed, "Could it be Lin Qinghua?"
She knew him, and Lin Xiaoxiao also knew him. He was of the right age, and Zhou Cuifen couldn't think of anyone else except Lin Qinghua.
Lin Xiaoxiao chuckled.
Zhou Cuifen thought she had guessed right, and suddenly panicked and said quickly.
"Xiaoxiao, you haven't mentioned this to Lin Qinghua yet, right? You absolutely mustn't mention this to him. You don't know how much he hates me. If he knew, he'd definitely think I'm attracted to him, and he wouldn't let me ride in his car when we go back."
Zhou Cuifen knew a little about Lin Qinghua's character.
Besides, even if Lin Qinghua didn't hate her, she didn't want to marry Lin Qinghua. She didn't want to marry someone from the same village. She wanted to find a partner from another village.
Being too close to my mother's family is not good at all. Any small or trivial matter at home will be reported back to me.
