"Oh, Aunt Tian, I haven't seen those children for a long time. They are chatting together in the inner room. Wait, I'll go in and call them." Without inviting the two into the house, Li Cuiying just shook the water off her hands and went in to call people.
The people in the room had already heard the voices outside, but after hearing what Li Cuiying said, they did not go out directly.
Li Cuiying didn't beat around the bush and looked directly at An Xin: "What's the matter? Did you meet the old lady this morning?"
An Xin nodded: "Does the old lady want to introduce Liu Liu to her grandson? I know a little about their family situation, and they are quite well-off. After all, young people are just meeting each other, not settling down or anything, so there is no harm in meeting a few more people."
An Xin thought it would be better for her daughter to meet more blind dates. Only with more experience can she know what kind of person she wants to find, so that she won't be fooled by a man with just sweet words because she has no experience at all.
After getting married, you find that the two are very different before and after marriage. Where can you go to regret it then?
If An Xin thought it was fine, what could Li Cuiying, the second wife, say? After all, it wasn't her own child, so she couldn't say anything.
Several people planned to go out together recently to avoid Gu Liuliu feeling embarrassed alone. Besides, they were just meeting as neighbors, not a real blind date.
As soon as Jiang Mengxue walked out of the main hall, she saw the tall figure standing next to Old Mrs. Tian in the yard.
Well, apart from being a bit dark and a bit strong, there's nothing else wrong with him. As for his appearance, he's quite handsome.
Jiang Mengxue couldn't describe it in detail. She could only say that he was okay and a little handsome.
When they came out, the man's eyes went straight to Jiang Mengxue's face, and he frowned slightly as if he was thinking about something.
An Xin was very satisfied with the young man at first sight. He was tall and strong and looked reliable.
"Old lady, this is your little grandson, right? He's really good-looking, a very handsome man."
Old Mrs. Tian usually likes people praising her grandson the most. At this moment, she is so happy that she can't stop smiling.
"No, no, it's your Liu Liu who is beautiful. People like her at first sight." He turned around and pulled his grandson over to introduce her to everyone.
"This is my youngest son's family, the youngest grandson Tian Xinghe. Xinghe, this is your Aunt Cuiying's eldest niece-in-law, and this is her daughter Liuliu. Xiaoxue next to her is also your Aunt Cuiying's niece-in-law, and Cuiying's niece, you call her Aunt Huaicai."
Jiang Mengxue then realized something was wrong. Why did Tian Xinghe's name sound familiar?
The man my sister Jiang Mengran mentioned last time seemed to be called Tian Xinghe, and I heard the old lady say before that her youngest son’s family works in the railway department, so they are the same person?
Tian Xinghe was also a little confused. He just felt that Jiang Mengxue looked a little familiar. Although she was not 100% similar to Jiang Mengran, she was about 60% similar. At the beginning, he suspected that they had some relationship.
"Sister Xiaoxue? Do you know Jiang Mengran?" He really couldn't hold back his words. What if the two were really sisters and they had a bad impression of him?
Jiang Mengxue didn't expect the other party to be so direct, and she didn't know how he could tell that she had some relationship with Jiang Mengran.
"Jiang Mengran is my sister, and you also work in the railway department, so you may know each other." Jiang Mengxue did not show that she had heard of his name.
After all, if Jiang Mengxue knew his name, it must mean that Jiang Mengran had mentioned it in front of her sister.
When an ordinary female colleague mentioned the name of a male colleague to her sister when she got home, she felt something was wrong.
No one else expected that Tian Xinghe actually knew Jiang Mengxue's sister, and that the two of them actually worked in the same unit. They had never heard that Jiang Mengxue had other brothers and sisters working in the city.
"Sister-in-law, when did your sister go to the city to work? I haven't heard about it before." An Xin's face was stiff. She knew in her heart that there was no hope.
It was obvious that when Tian Xinghe mentioned Jiang Mengran, he didn't act like an ordinary colleague. Even if he wasn't interested now, he must have had a good impression of her.
"An old comrade from Peking University and Tsinghua University works in the railway department. He happened to have a vacancy and recommended my sister to work there. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that he knew Xinghe."
Jiang Mengxue has nothing to hide. Anyone who asks around will know the truth.
Tian Xinghe's ears turned red, and he lowered his head and scratched it, feeling a little embarrassed.
He didn't expect to meet Jiang Mengran's family, nor did he know what impression Jiang Mengxue had of him?
"That's not bad, what a coincidence, Xinghe, my sister Xiaoxue just came to the city to work and doesn't know anything. You colleagues can help her out and lend a hand if there is anything you need."
Li Cuiying was trying to smooth things over. She had originally thought she could help Gu Liuliu get together, but now this is the situation.
"Don't worry, Aunt Gu, we are all colleagues and we help each other."
Li Cuiying had a smile on her face, but she glanced at An Xin calmly, and only felt relieved after making sure that the other person's expression did not change.
In fact, An Xin was only calm on the surface, but she was complaining about her best friend in her heart.
What a useless thing. Every time he comes across a good one, it is snatched away by others. He doesn't take it seriously and can only pick the ones left in the future.
What a nice guy, it's a pity that he has fallen in love with someone else.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party being attracted to Jiang Mengxue's sister. After all, they knew each other as colleagues, and today's event wasn't a blind date. It was just a meeting between neighbors, so it wasn't a big deal.
For example, the old lady is standing nearby and doesn’t know what’s going on. What’s the topic?
She also wanted to introduce her grandson to Gu Liuliu. Could she still speak now? And who was Jiang Mengran? Cuiying's niece's sister?
That's okay, we're all family anyway.
"It's all fate. I finally get to come here once, and I'm having dinner at their house tonight."
Li Cuiying's invitation was also sincere. Although no one said it explicitly, it could be seen that Tian Xinghe was indeed interested in Jiang Mengxue's sister.
Maybe in the future we will all be real relatives, and there will be nothing wrong with having a meal together.
Tian Xinghe waved his hand and said, "No need, Aunt Gu. I'll be back soon. I have to go out tonight."
Knowing that the other party had work to do in the evening, Li Cuiying did not force him. Seeing that it was almost time and An Xin and others had nothing to do, she said goodbye.
It just so happened that Tian Xinghe was also preparing to go back, so the few of them decided to go together.
Li Cuiying also packed some dried sweet potatoes that had been dried outside for them. It would take at least some time before Gu Huaicai's family could eat them.
I sent them to the intersection outside, watched them walk away, and then we all returned home together.
It was okay for Old Mrs. Tian to go home, so she followed them home.
"Xiaoying, come and give me a hand. I'll go down to the cellar and get some pears."
