Lin Yu's mouth opened slightly: "You know me?"
She hasn't used this name in a long time, but her friends in Haicheng probably only know that her surname is Qiao.
Tao's mother nodded and said, "I know you. Xin Xin used to talk about you often. She even regretted that you couldn't come to her wedding."
Tao Xinxin knew about Lin Yu's background, so she understood why Lin Yu hadn't contacted her.
True friends don't need explanations.
She was just disappointed that none of her friends attended her wedding.
After hearing this, Lin Yu said with some regret, "Yes, I didn't expect her to get married so soon."
Tao's mother disapproved, saying, "What do you mean 'fast'? You're both over twenty. Aren't you married yet? Do you have a boyfriend?"
Seeing her eager expression, Lin Yu knew what she wanted to do.
She quickly replied, "I have a boyfriend, we're just not married yet."
Tao's mother said "Oh" in disappointment, "I can't be a matchmaker anymore."
She started gossiping about Lin Yu's boyfriend again.
Lin Yu made excuses for a long time before finally managing to leave the Tao family.
She arrived as a pure and beautiful fairy, but left as if her life force had been drained away.
Believe it or not, these women love to play matchmaker wherever they go.
They then persuade people to get married and have children.
Lin Yu was someone he couldn't afford to offend, so he had no choice but to avoid her.
Fortunately, Tao's mother didn't lose her mind and wrote down Tao Xinxin's current address.
Tao Xinxin married someone from Haicheng, which isn't far away.
Lin Yu took the bus for two stops, got off, and walked forward until she arrived at the address.
Tao Xinxin's home is no longer a tenement building, but a small courtyard, which shows that her husband's family is well-off.
Lin Yu knocked on the door, but after a while, no one answered.
Looking at the time, today is Sunday, which should be a day off.
She frowned, thinking that she probably wouldn't see him today.
"May I ask who you are...?"
The knocking on this door wouldn't get anyone to answer, but it did draw the attention of the neighbor next door.
Lin Yu turned her head and saw a woman wearing glasses who looked very gentle standing at the door.
She quickly replied, "I'm here to see Tao Xinxin; I'm her friend."
The woman nodded: "Are you looking for Xiao Tao? She and her husband went to visit her in-laws today and aren't home. Why don't you come again next time?"
Lin Yu then realized that she and her husband did not live with her in-laws.
I occasionally visit my parents on weekends.
"Okay, then if you happen to run into her, please let her know, and I'll come again next time."
Before the man could answer, a man came out from inside.
"Honey, who's outside?"
Lin Yu felt the voice sounded strangely familiar, so she stopped and looked over.
The other person reacted even faster than she did: "Hey girl, it's you! You've come to see us?"
What a coincidence! I ran into Luo Ping again.
Since she had no intention of trying to build a relationship, Lin Yu didn't look closely at the address he gave her.
Who would have thought that he actually lived next door to Tao Xinxin?
Over there, Luo Ping was already happily introducing Lin Yu to his wife.
"Honey, this is the woman I met on the train. She helped me get my wallet back."
Before his wife could react, he said to Lin Yu, "This is your sister-in-law, her name is Jiang Qing."
It was fate that they met, so Lin Yu didn't hesitate and went straight up to shake hands with Jiang Qing.
"Hello, sister-in-law, I'm Lin Yu. What a coincidence!"
Jiang Qing had naturally heard her husband talk about the thief, so she was very grateful to Lin Yu.
"Hello, Lin Yu, please come in and sit down. I really need to thank you."
Lin Yu followed the couple inside and saw that their small courtyard was well-maintained and looked clean.
There were several potted plants in the yard, and a watering can on the ground.
Luo Ping walked over and picked up the things: "I was just watering the plants when I heard you talking."
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Brother Luo really loves life."
Jiang Qing: "He just likes to grow flowers and plants at home."
Luo Ping shook his head and said, "I also like to cook, girl. Why don't you stay for dinner? I'll make you my specialty, sweet and sour pork ribs."
Lin Yu quickly waved her hand: "I can't accept this, no need, no need."
It's like they're just trying to freeload off someone.
Luo Ping reassured him, "Don't be shy. Usually it's just the two of us eating, but with you here today, it'll be even more lively."
Jiang Qing chimed in, saying, "That's right, sis, we should thank you for helping us catch the thief, otherwise I would feel terrible."
Jiang Qing frowned and made a wronged expression.
Lin Yu was struck dumb. The gentle and kind woman suddenly made such a tearful expression, and she felt like she was committing a crime.
He quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'll stay for dinner."
Jiang Qing then composed herself and winked at Luo Ping.
Luo Ping smiled indulgently, thinking to himself how adorable his wife was.
Lin Yu felt like she had been force-fed a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection
From what Luo Ping said, Lin Yu knew he loved his wife. Seeing the atmosphere between the two of them, Lin Yu felt that the couple truly loved each other.
It really showed her what love looks like.
Lin Yu looked left and right, her eyes crinkling with a smile.
Jiang Qing noticed her expression and her face immediately turned red.
Her skin was as beautiful as peach blossoms and plums; even Lin Yu was tempted by her beauty, let alone Luo Ping.
Luo Ping said he can cook, so he wasn't just making things up.
He went to the kitchen to cook, and didn't need Jiang Qing or Lin Yu's help at all; he could do everything by himself.
"Brother Luo looks like someone who cooks often."
Jiang Qing said shyly, "Because I'm really not good at cooking, he had to do it."
Her situation is relatively rare; in most families, it's the woman who does the cooking.
So I felt a little embarrassed.
But Lin Yu showed no surprise or disdain on her face after hearing this.
Seeing her embarrassed, I assumed she was afraid I would think her cooking was bad.
He said, "It's okay, if you can't cook, you can't cook, so what?"
Jiang Qing hadn't expected her to say that: "Don't you think it's too..."
Lin Yu understood her unspoken words and waved her hand, saying, "What's the difference? Does it matter whether a man or a woman cooks?"
"No, there are differences."
Jiang Qing was stunned. Just as she was about to ask a question, she heard her continue, "Aren't all the chefs in restaurants men? That means men are better suited to cooking than women."
Jiang Qing had never really thought of this viewpoint.
But thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Cooking requires knife skills, as well as wielding a spatula and tossing the wok. These tasks require strength.
Women are naturally not as strong as men.
That's because men are indeed better suited to cooking.
Just look at Luo Ping; he's a man who regularly exercises and has muscles.
They are very strong when they work.
He seemed to be handling it with ease.
If it were Jiang Qing herself, she would find it very tiring, and her hands would probably ache from working so hard.
