Mrs. Xu was surprised to see the harvest of the farmers: "We picked so many mushrooms, and there are also pheasants and rabbits?"

Xu Xiaoyao was more talkative than Hehua. She chattered away telling Old Lady Xu about what happened in the mountains.

"Your luck lies in this." Old Mrs. Xu raised her thumb.

Xu Xiaoyao scratched her hair and smiled foolishly: "All the luck I had in the past ten days was used up today."

Lotus thought this was wrong, and suddenly said, "No, from today on, I will have good luck every day."

Xu Xiaoyao also responded quickly. She nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, from today on, I will have good luck every day."

The four of them cleaned the mushrooms they had collected.

I saved some for today's meal, and used the rest for sun drying.

Old Lady Zhang came to chat with Old Lady Xu. Seeing a lot of mushrooms drying outside, she was surprised and said, "Old sister, you went up the mountain to pick mushrooms today. My god, the harvest is not bad. Next time you go up the mountain, remember to call me."

Old Mrs. Xu pointed at Xu Jiajia and her family and said, "I didn't go up the mountain. They went alone."

Old Mrs. Zhang looked in the direction of Old Mrs. Xu's hand, her eyes lit up: "Whose relative is this? She's so good-looking!"

Although Xu Xiaoyao and He Hua are not as pretty as Xu Jiajia, they each have their own merits.

Mrs. Xu: "Relatives from my hometown are just like my granddaughters."

Mrs. Zhang looked at Lotus and whispered to Mrs. Xu, "Does she have a date?"

Mrs. Xu noticed that Mrs. Zhang had a good impression of He Hua, but she didn't know if He Hua had recovered from what she had gone through. "No."

Old Lady Zhang spoke loudly, and He Hua heard it clearly. She was very opposed to marriage, and her voice was excited when she spoke: "Grandma Xu, I won't find a partner or get married, and I will live alone in the future."

Old Mrs. Zhang didn't know what Lotus had been through, she just thought this person was weird. With this kind of attitude, which woman wouldn't get married? "If you don't get married, you won't even have a place to bury your body when you die."

Lotus bit her lip and said, "I'm not afraid."

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Mrs. Xu immediately followed her words and said, "Don't worry, I won't introduce you to anyone without your consent."

With tears in her eyes, He Hua spoke word by word, "I won't get married in the future. When Jia Jia and Xiao Yao have a child, I will adopt them as godparents and treat their child as my own, too."

She was very emotional, and Xu Jiajia was afraid that she would collapse, so she nodded immediately: "Of course, no problem. In fact, in this world, there is no rule that women must get married. Just follow your own ideas and don't care about other people's opinions."

With Xu Jiajia's comfort, He Hua felt a little better. She tried hard to hold back her tears and choked up, "Hmm..."

Old Mrs. Zhang was stunned, not knowing what was going on. Was this man mentally ill? How could a woman cry when she was talking about marriage?

She looked at Old Mrs. Xu, wanting her to help her solve her doubts.

Old Mrs. Xu shook her head at her.

Old Lady Zhang: “…”

Lotus is not willing to find a partner.

Old Lady Zhang looked at Xu Xiaoyao again: "Old sister, does this person have a date?"

Without waiting for Mrs. Xu to answer, Xu Xiaoyao rushed to say, "No, no, grandma, do you want to introduce me to someone?"

Old Lady Zhang does have a good candidate here: "Yes, but the young man's position is not enough to accompany the army."

With Xu Jiajia's help, Xu Xiaoyao is very confident about her future. She grinned and smiled softly: "It's okay, as long as the young man is motivated and treats me well."

At this point, Xu Xiaoyao remembered something, and the smile on her face turned serious in an instant: "My parents-in-law have to be well at home. My time is precious, and I don't want to waste it dealing with my parents-in-law."

Old Mrs. Zhang thought this girl was really insightful. The more she saw this, the more she wanted to bring the couple together: "The boy's mother is related to me, and they are both honest people."

Xu Xiaoyao was very straightforward: "Okay, then you arrange it and let us meet."

Mrs. Zhang is very efficient in her work.

The next day, he brought Captain Zhang and Xu Xiaoyao to have an encounter.

Company Captain Zhang is 1.8 meters tall.

Dark skin.

The teeth are very white.

Grin.

Only the teeth are visible.

When Xu Xiaoyao almost fell, Captain Zhang reached out and helped her up.

Set the person straight.

And immediately let go of Xu Xiaoyao.

Xu Xiaoyao thanked her and looked at Mrs. Zhang: "Good morning, Grandma Zhang. Where are you going now?"

Old Lady Zhang glanced at Captain Zhang next to her and said with a smile, "Let's go to the grocery store."

Xu Xiaoyao nodded: "Then I'll go find Jiajia first. Come to Jiajia's house when you have time."

Old Lady Zhang responded, "Okay, next time you go up the mountain, remember to take me with you."

"no problem."

Wait until the others leave.

Old Mrs. Zhang wanted to ask the boy next to her if he liked it.

The eyes of the envious person wanted to stick to Xu Xiaoyao.

Without asking, she knew what I thought of you.

However, this requires not only men but also women to like it.

"I'll go to the Xu family this afternoon to ask Xiaoyao. If she's interested, you two can spend a few days together and see how it goes."

Captain Zhang asked back: "If she likes him, shouldn't they get engaged first? Why do they have to date for a few days?"

Mrs. Zhang was stunned: "No need to be so anxious?"

Captain Zhang was of course anxious. He had finally found her, and if he didn't marry her, he would feel uneasy doing his mission: "It only took Deputy Battalion Commander Shen 1 day from the time we met to the time we got married. Compared to him, I was slow."

Old Lady Zhang: “…”

Mrs. Zhang, who had originally planned to go to Xu's house in the afternoon, arrived at Xu's house at ten o'clock in the morning under the urging of Company Commander Zhang.

This point.

Xu Xiaoyao rented a house to read books, not the Xu family.

"Old sister, did Xiaoyao tell you what happened this morning?"

Old Mrs. Xu showed a meaningful expression: "Your speed is pretty good, is that company commander interested?"

Old Mrs. Zhang nodded: "Well, it seems that he likes Xiaoyao very much. I have introduced some girls to Xiaoyou before, but Xiaoyou didn't like any of them."

Mrs. Xu: "It's not the right time yet."

When Mrs. Zhang saw that Mrs. Xu didn't respond, she became anxious and asked, "What did Xiaoyao say?"

Mrs. Xu didn't tease her: "My first impression is that she's OK, but as for her personality, I'd need to get to know her for a while before I can know her."

Old Mrs. Zhang was delighted. She also likes this guy?

"Since you like both of them, why don't I choose 꿂떚 and get engaged."

Mrs. Xu shook her head: "Xiao Yao said she wanted to get to know me first, but she didn't want to get engaged."

"Ah——" Old Mrs. Zhang couldn't understand what the young people were thinking. They had to get to know each other first and then get engaged. If they didn't get engaged and stay together, would they still have this reputation? "Why not get engaged? Do you have any concerns?"

Old Mrs. Xu didn't understand what Xiaoyao was thinking, but since that girl had her own opinions, she couldn't say anything: "In today's new society, people are encouraged to love themselves. I think she also wants to try what it feels like to be in love!"

This is Old Lady Xu's guess, but why is it so? Perhaps only Xu Xiaoyao knows.

Old Mrs. Zhang told Captain Zhang all this.

놛After listening.

After a moment of silence, he finally spoke, "She might be afraid that I'm unreliable. Once we get engaged, if she finds out that I'm not the one she wants, she'll want to cancel the engagement. Her reputation will also be affected. It's better not to get engaged!"
