Jiang Mengxue had already thought that the three of them would have a lot of appetite, so she prepared a lot of rice, a full bowl.
It’s enough even if three people eat as much as they want.
"Eat as much as you want, I'm going back tomorrow, and I can't handle this huge bowl of rice if I can't finish it."
The two of them had no time to talk. They just soaked the rice in the braised pork broth and ate it with relish.
In a short while, a bowl of rice and three dishes were finished.
Jiang Mengran went to clean the table and wash the dishes, and Tian Xinghe volunteered to help.
The days are getting shorter and shorter lately. It’s dark not long after I finish my meal.
Jiang Mengxue coaxed Mo Bao to sleep and put him on the kang.
Go to the yard and pick up the dishes to be washed.
"You should go back early. It's getting a bit cold in the morning and evening, and it's not safe to ride a bike in the dark. It's better to leave early."
Aunt Liu from next door came out carrying a basin.
I also saw three people washing dishes at the sink.
She had never met Tian Xinghe, but she knew Jiang Mengran.
Li Dahua, the matchmaker nearby, is still thinking of introducing a partner to Jiang Mengran.
As a result, I came several times but never saw Jiang Mengxue, and never found a chance to talk to her.
"Xiao Jiang, your sister is here too. Who is this man? Is he your brother?"
In fact, she heard it when Jiang Mengran first came.
The two families lived next door to each other, separated by a wall.
If you speak a little louder, people next door can hear you.
So how could he not know what's going on here?
It's just a topic of conversation.
Jiang Mengxue didn't care and replied while washing the dishes: "My sister helped me take care of the child in the afternoon and brought it back to me after work.
And this isn't my brother, this is my future brother-in-law, and they're getting married this year."
Speaking of this, Jiang Mengxue had wanted to ask her sister before, but neither of them had set a specific date.
I forgot about it while eating, and now it’s not easy to ask with outsiders around.
Aunt Liu was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Jiang Mengran had already found a partner.
Li Qijun from the Li family next door is still looking for a partner.
His mother saw Jiang Mengxue coming back today and planned to go to her house and talk to her in person.
Since we all live in the same compound, we should know each other more or less.
Besides, it would be great if my younger sister could marry and live in the same courtyard with me.
Besides, it seems that Jiang Mengxue may not come back in the future, so maybe I can borrow her two rooms to live in.
They're all relatives, so they won't refuse. After a while, the house will become yours! What a wonderful thing!
Fortunately, Jiang Mengxue didn’t know what the Li family was thinking, otherwise if she dared to come to their house, she would definitely be beaten out with a broom.
Jiang Mengran saw her sister talking with the neighbors and prepared to go back.
Jiang Mengxue said something to Aunt Liu, wiped her hands briefly, and sent the two of them out of the yard.
"Ride slowly. When you're going home, tell me the date. I'll go back that day too."
Jiang Mengran nodded obediently, waved to her sister, and let Tian Xinghe ride away.
"Second sister, we'll go back first. Tell Xiaoran when you're coming next time. My parents said they want to invite you to dinner at their home."
Jiang Mengxue smiled and asked them to go back quickly.
Forget about having dinner with my younger sister’s future in-laws. They are not married yet and the two families have never met.
As her elder sister, she should stay out of it.
I watched them leave, but I didn't expect Aunt Liu was still by the pool and hadn't gone home.
Jiang Mengxue just wanted to finish washing the dishes quickly and go home to sleep.
I slept so late yesterday and got up early this morning and have been busy until now. I am exhausted both physically and mentally.
But it was obvious that Aunt Liu had something else to say.
"Xiao Jiang, your Aunt Li next door said she wants to tell you something. Are you free later?"
Jiang Mengxue knew what it was about without having to explain, and immediately refused: "Aunt Liu, you are not talking about my little sister again, are you?
As you just saw, my younger sister already has a boyfriend. I estimate that they will get married before the end of the year at the latest. If that's the case, let's not talk about it.
We all live in the same courtyard, and it would be awkward if things got too entangled."
Although the Li family members didn't have much contact, they had a general understanding of it.
Li Qijun has a formal job and his personality is pretty good.
But his mother is not easy to get along with.
After getting married, you must live with your in-laws. It is absolutely not okay to do so for a long time.
It’s fine when the couple is newly married, and the man is willing to side with his wife.
But after a year or two, it's no longer the same.
So in Jiang Mengxue's opinion, even if the Li family's economic conditions are quite good, this one point alone is enough to dissuade them from buying.
The situation at the Tian family was much better. It would be fine even if they lived together at the beginning.
Jiang Mengran and Tian Xinghe are both workers at the Railway Bureau, and Tian Xinghe wants to separate from his family.
As both of them are workers in the same unit, they can be given priority in housing allocation.
Of course, housing conditions are difficult now, and many people have been waiting in line for years without getting a place.
But at any time, we should pay attention to social etiquette, whether it is looking for someone to give gifts or anything else.
As long as things can be done, it's not a big deal.
So no matter how you look at it, Tian Xinghe is more suitable.
What's more, it's what my younger sister likes.
Aunt Liu was also a little embarrassed. She naturally knew what Li Qijun's mother was going to say.
The two had a good relationship, and the Li family would help the Liu family from time to time.
So it was just a matter of asking a question, and Aunt Liu was still willing to do it.
But I didn't expect that I would be rejected before I even said anything.
Jiang Mengxue saw Aunt Liu's embarrassed face and knew the relationship between their two families.
Aunt Liu helped her a lot when she first moved into the hospital, and she didn't want to make things too difficult for Aunt Liu.
I had no choice but to say, "Aunt Liu, you can just tell Aunt Li about this. My sister is already engaged, so there's no need to mention it. There's nothing we can do if two young people are not destined to be together.
"With only two workers in the Li family, are you afraid that you can't find a daughter-in-law? Don't you think so?"
Aunt Liu was right to think so. It was not like the Li family couldn't find the girl, so why were they always keeping an eye on Dr. Xiao Jiang's sister?
The Li family has both a house and money, so why are they in such a hurry?
After putting down the heavy burden in her heart, Aunt Liu's expression became relaxed.
Seeing that nothing was wrong, Jiang Mengxue said goodbye to Aunt Liu and took the basin back to the house.
It's dark now, and there's not much entertainment to do, so there's nothing to do except find someone to chat with.
Jiang Mengxue walked around the room, intending to put all the inconspicuous things into the space.
She was a bit troubled about the furniture, as she had bought second-hand furniture from a trust store after the house was renovated.
Although it's not very good furniture, it still cost a lot of money.
If you rent out a house with a whole set of furniture, the rent will definitely not be cheap.
By then, no one may be willing to do it.
After all, it’s not like other people can’t use any of the wooden furniture they buy, so there’s no need to spend extra money to use yours.
If it breaks during use, you will have to argue with me.
I was packing up my things when there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Mengxue wondered who would come back to see her so late at night.
Could it be the Li family next door? Or maybe Aunt Liu wanted to tell me something?
