While Xu Sanniang was preparing New Year's goods, Jiang Cheng had nothing to do, so he remembered that Song Tingzhi had asked him to ask He Xiaomi before. Jiang Cheng thought about going to take a look today and ask He Xiaomi what she thought.
Xu Sanniang was afraid that it would be unsafe for Jiang Cheng to go out alone, so she asked Song Yu to accompany him and take Xiao Hui with them.
Song Yu was very happy when he heard his mother's arrangement, and quickly took Xiao Hui to accompany Jiang Cheng out.
When Jiang Cheng arrived at He's house, He's mother was pickling fish. Seeing Jiang Cheng coming, she couldn't free her hands, so she invited him into the house to find He Xiaomi.
Song Yu sent Jiang Cheng to He's house and told him that he was taking Xiao Hui to play with other children in the village and would be back soon.
Jiang Cheng didn't hold him back and just let him go.
Before entering He Xiaomi's room, Jiang Cheng knocked on the door and then pushed it open.
"Why are you knocking on the door today?" He Xiaomi originally thought that it was his father looking for him, but when he turned around, he saw it was Jiang Cheng.
You know, Jiang Cheng didn’t even knock on the door when he came to see him before!
"Look at what you said! Can't I just knock on the door before coming in?" Jiang Cheng teased.
"Who knows you! Maybe you have some bad intentions!" He Xiaomi poured him a glass of water to warm his hands. Seeing his big belly, she thought he came alone and asked, "Are you here alone?"
"Xiaoyu came with me! He accompanied me here and then went out to play!" Jiang Cheng blew on the tea, took a sip of tea and said, "Tingzhi is frying meatballs at home!"
"Oh~ My mom also said she wanted to make some fried meatballs! Last time you asked Song Tingzhi to send over a lot of pork, my mom didn't know what to do with it, and she wanted to make some fried meatballs too!"
He Xiaomi shared this with Jiang Cheng.
"By the way, let's not talk about this anymore. I have something to tell you!" Jiang Cheng saw He Xiaomi talking nonstop, remembered why he came, and quickly interrupted him.
"What's the matter?" He Xiaomi paused and looked at Jiang Cheng.
"Well... Tingzhi has a friend named Qi Yu, who is the young master of Yunshang Casino. Do you have any impression of him?" Jiang Cheng said cautiously, fearing that he would cause He Xiaomi's sadness!
"I've heard of it, what's the matter?" He Xiaomi was stunned.
"He asked Tingzhi to let me come here and ask if you are engaged. He might..." fall in love with you.
Jiang Cheng didn't finish his words, but he felt that He Xiaomi should understand what he meant.
"The New Year is coming soon, please don't try to make fun of me! How could a young master like you, the young master of a gambling house, fall for me?" He Xiaomi was stunned for a moment, then he felt that Jiang Cheng was coaxing him.
"What you said is true. You are so beautiful and have a pair of skillful hands that can carve wood. Why would he look down on you?" Jiang Cheng felt that He Xiaomi thought too little of himself. He was obviously very outstanding, but he always felt that he was useless.
"He told Tingzhi that he saw you at Qianqian's coming-of-age ceremony and couldn't stop thinking about you. Although I think this is a bit false, since Tingzhi said that someone is good, he shouldn't be that bad!"
"I've seen him before. He's good-looking and doesn't have the bad habits of rich kids. You can give him a try!"
Jiang Cheng expressed his impression of Qi Yu and wanted He Xiaomi to get to know him better before making a decision.
"It's not a matter of looking down on others. How can someone with such a huge social status have a good ending?" He Xiaomi said with a wry smile.
Even if I was really attracted by his beauty, how long could it last? I am not a handsome guy, so how can I have the confidence that a rich boy will treat me well all his life?
"You..." Jiang Cheng sighed, "Why do you have to belittle yourself like this!"
Seeing that He Xiaomi kept her head down and didn't say anything, Jiang Cheng knew what he meant.
Seeing that he had made up his mind, he didn't try to persuade him any further. After all, this was a matter of his life and it wasn't appropriate to ask others to decide for him.
"Since you've made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you!" Jiang Cheng said, "It's okay. Xiaomi is such a talented girl, she'll definitely marry into a good family!"
"I will be satisfied as long as I can marry someone like your Song Tingzhi!" He Xiaomi did not have particularly high expectations for her future husband. She just hoped that he would be loving and ordinary!
"You really are..." Jiang Cheng didn't expect that He Xiaomi was thinking this way, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Seeing Jiang Cheng happy, He Xiaomi started laughing too.
Seeing that the question he wanted to ask today had been answered, Jiang Cheng didn't stay any longer. It was the New Year and every household was very busy!
Not long after Jiang Cheng left, Xiao Hui came running over, followed by Song Yu, who was panting.
"Brother Chengcheng! Let's go home!" Song Yu said, holding Jiang Cheng's hand.
"Okay! Where did you go crazy? Look, you're sweating in this cold weather!" Jiang Cheng touched Song Yu's head and found his hand full of sweat.
Jiang Cheng asked as he walked with Song Yu.
"I didn't go anywhere, I just strolled around with Xiao Hui!" Song Yu smiled foolishly and wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve.
"I really don't know what to say to you!" Jiang Cheng didn't say anything when he saw that Song Yu was having fun.
After Song Yu and Jiang Cheng arrived home, Xu Sanniang let them each drink a bowl of ginger soup before leaving.
After drinking the ginger soup, Jiang Cheng went back to the house to rest. He felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach after walking outside in such a cold weather, but he didn't say anything for fear that Xu Sanniang and the others would worry.
Xu Sanniang seemed to notice that Jiang Cheng was feeling unwell, so she asked Song Tingzhi to put a hot water bottle in to check.
Song Tingzhi went after receiving the order.
"Why did you come in? Why aren't you outside helping your mother?" Jiang Cheng heard the sound of the door being pushed open and saw that it was Song Tingzhi, so he asked curiously.
"Come in and check on you! Mom's fine now!" Song Tingzhi took a hot water bottle and placed it in Jiang Cheng's hand, then sat down next to him. "Are you feeling unwell?"
"It's okay, maybe he got cold outside!" Jiang Cheng smiled, afraid that Song Tingzhi would worry.
"Lie down and rest for a while!" Seeing that Jiang Cheng's face was a little pale, Song Tingzhi quickly let him lie down on the bed to rest.
Jiang Cheng knew that he was worried, so he lay down under Song Tingzhi's force.
Jiang Cheng told Song Tingzhi about his visit to He Xiaomi, and also told him He Xiaomi's response, so that Song Tingzhi and Qi Yu could make things clear.
"Forget it, since he said so, I will tell that kid Qi Yu when I get back and let him give up this idea!" Song Tingzhi was not surprised to hear this result.
Although Qi Yu has a crush on He Xiaomi, he doesn't take the initiative and just wants outsiders like them to ask, which probably won't work.
"That's good!" Jiang Cheng said, "Actually, I think Xiaomi and Qi Yu are a good match."
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but feel sorry for Xiaomi.
"Marriage is predestined. If they are destined to be together, even gods can't separate them." Song Tingzhi covered him with the quilt. "Go get some sleep! Don't think too much!"
"Yeah." Jiang Cheng nodded and then fell asleep.
Seeing that he was asleep, Song Tingzhi quietly left.
