Wan Xiaomei looked at Chen Qinian, and she became more and more satisfied. How could she give up so easily just because he rejected her several times?
"You've been in the village for almost a month, why are you still so distant with Auntie?" Wan Xiaomei said with displeasure. "It's just a simple meal at my house, and you keep making excuses. Do you look down on Auntie?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Cinian waved his hands repeatedly, "No, Auntie, I just..."
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wan Xiaomei.
"Since it's not, then let's make it a deal. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Remember to come tonight."
After saying this, Wan Xiaomei hurried home.
She had to hurry home to tell her daughter the good news, and ask her to dress up nicely and try to win over Shen Ci Nian in one fell swoop.
After all, it is not easy to find a son-in-law who suits her taste. If she misses this opportunity, she will miss it forever.
Looking at Wan Xiaomei's receding figure, the corners of Shen Cinian's mouth rose slightly.
After nearly a month of observation, he found that the Wan Xiaomei family was the most likely to be involved in tomb robbing and trafficking antiques, so he took this opportunity to visit them and investigate further.
Time flies and it's night.
Shen Cinian simply packed up and came with a bag of fruit.
As soon as I entered the door, Wan Xiaomei came to greet me with an extremely warm attitude.
"Xiao Shen is here, come in and sit down." She looked at her daughter, "Xiao Fang, go pour a cup of tea for Instructor Shen."
Li Xiaofang raised her eyes to look at Shen Qinian, her cheeks slightly red, "I know, mother."
Seeing this, Shen Cinian hurriedly refused and said, "Auntie, don't bother, I'm not thirsty."
Wan Xiaomei glanced at Shen Cinian in a reproachful manner, "Why are you being so polite to Auntie? Come in and sit down. The food will be ready soon."
"Thank you for your hard work, Auntie." Shen Qinian raised his hand, "This is a little gift from me, I hope you don't mind it."
Seeing this, Wan Xiaomei smiled widely, "You are too polite, kid. Don't be like this next time you come to my house."
"Mom, I've made the tea."
"Hurry up and bring it to Xiao Shen." Wan Xiaomei scolded with a smile: "You really have no sense at all."
Although she was blaming him, Wan Xiaomei's eyes were full of doting when she looked at Li Xiaofang.
"Xiao Shen, I'm sorry to have made you laugh. This girl has been spoiled by me and her father since she was a child. She has become so weak that she can't even carry anything. But she has become a good cook. If anyone marries Xiao Fang in the future, they will be in for a treat."
Hearing Wan Xiaomei talking about cooking, Tang Wanning's figure instantly appeared in Shen Cinian's mind.
He didn't know what his little girl was doing at the moment, or whether she was thinking of him.
The corners of Shen Ci Nian's mouth rose, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
He just casually said, "It's fine. Girls should be pampered."
Shen Cinian's words fell into the ears of the mother and daughter, and his gentle eyes instantly caused the two to misunderstand.
"Haha, Xiao Shen is right. After getting married, girls just need to take good care of their husbands and children."
As she spoke, Wan Xiaomei winked at Li Xiaoling and said, "Stay here with Instructor Shen for a while. I'll go see if your father has finished his work."
Li Xiaoling blushed and said "hmm" in a voice as soft as a mosquito.
After watching Wan Xiaomei leave, Li Xiaoling secretly glanced at Shen Cinian and asked, "Comrade Shen, what do you usually like to do?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Cinian looked at the furnishings in the room without leaving any trace and replied:
"I usually like to read books about crops and wander around to see the scenery of nature. What about you?"
Hearing Shen Cinian's words, Li Xiaoling lowered her head in frustration.
"I usually like to cook, make clothes and shoes. I also like reading, but my mother won't let me, saying that reading is useless."
"It's a new era now, and women can hold up half the sky. How can they be useless?" Shen Qinian deliberately tried to be approachable. "If you like reading, I'll bring some books for you later."
Hearing Shen Cinian's deliberately flattering words, Li Xiaoling's eyes burst into a light of surprise.
"Can...can I?"
"Of course you can. If you want to see it, I'll bring it to you next time I come."
Li Xiaoling mustered up her courage and stuttered, "Then... can I come to your house to find you?"
Originally, Li Xiaoling had a good impression of Chen Cinian. After all, he was handsome, cultured, and a city dweller.
Now after this brief conversation, Li Xiaoling has a better impression of him.
Shen Cinian is so gentle and considerate. If you miss him, it will be difficult to find such a good one in the future, so Li Xiaoling is eager to seize this opportunity.
"This...is not good. After all, we are a single man and a single woman. If it gets out, it will be bad for your reputation."
Hearing that Shen Cinian cared so much about her, Li Xiaoling was even more moved.
If it were anyone else in the village, they would have burst into laughter when faced with the temptation she offered to them.
Before Li Xiaoling could answer, Shen Cinian forcibly changed the subject, “By the way, it’s getting dark, why hasn’t your uncle come back yet?”
Li Xiaoling was immersed in the beautiful dream she had woven for herself, so she answered without thinking:
"My dad went to Uncle Zhang's house. They get together every Wednesday, but today my dad knew you were coming and was afraid you might drink too much, so he left early. I guess he'll be back soon."
Hearing Li Xiaoling's words, Shen Cinian looked nervous, "Is the relationship between uncle and this Uncle Zhang so good? Uncle doesn't want to marry you to his son, right?"
Originally, when Li Xiaoling heard Shen Ci asking about the relationship between her father and Uncle Zhang, she was a little nervous.
But after hearing the second half of his words, Li Xiaoling's doubts disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Instead, she felt that Shen Cinian was interested in her more and more. Otherwise, why would he be so nervous when he heard that her father often went to Uncle Zhang's house?
However, before she could answer, Wan Xiaomei and Li Changgui walked in side by side.
This made Shen Cinian very depressed. He almost asked Uncle Zhang about it, but he didn't expect these two guys to come back.
Forget it, I’ll ask next time, I must not alert the enemy.
Li Changgui smiled brightly, "Xiao Shen, I'm so sorry, my second brother had something to talk to me about, so I was delayed for a while."
"It's okay, Uncle Li, I just got here not long ago."
"Then let's eat?" Li Changgui looked at his daughter with a doting smile, "Xiaofang, you and your mother go bring the food over, and bring my bottle of good wine over too. I want to get drunk with Xiao Shen today."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
