Cheng Jianyong quickly pushed it towards her, "This is Binbin's living expenses at your house these days. Why are you returning it?"
Jiang Manyue twitched her hands and dodged, "This money is not used. He usually eats with us. How much can a child of his age eat? I even took out two yuan, which is enough."
There was no way Cheng Jianyong could take the money back. Seeing that she refused to accept it, he threw it on the table and ran away with Binbin.
He was afraid that Jiang Manyue would catch up with him, so he held the luggage in one hand and carried Binbin in the other, and walked into the opposite corridor in two or three steps.
Jiang Manyue didn't pursue him anymore and put the envelope away, thinking that she would find an opportunity to return the money to him next time.
Lu Jun'an stood at the door feeling quite lost. "I hadn't finished telling Brother Binbin a story last night, and he went home."
Jiang Manyue patted his head and said, "Maybe next time your uncle goes on a mission, Binbin will come to live with us. Then you can tell him about it."
Lu Junan looked up at her and said, "But Brother Binbin and I heard it. Aunt Ma said she would find a new mother for Binbin. If Uncle Cheng goes on a mission again, he won't come to live with us."
Jiang Manyue didn't know how to say this, so she touched Lu Jun'an's head and asked him, "So, do you think it's better for Binbin to have a new mother or live in our house?"
Lu Jun'an thought for a moment and took Jiang Manyue's hand. "If the new mother is like Auntie, then it's good to have a new mother. Brother Binbin actually wants to have a mother. He secretly told me that Auntie, you are just like the mother he imagined, and he likes you very much."
"Brother Binbin also said that he envied me very much. It would be great if Uncle Cheng could find him a mother as good as Auntie."
Jiang Manyue sighed. After all, children want their mother to be with them. If Sister Ma can really introduce a good partner to Brother Cheng this time, it will be a good thing for Binbin.
Two days later, Sister Ma came to see Jiang Manyue and said that everything had been contacted. The person she introduced to Cheng Jianyong would come to her house as a guest in the afternoon, and asked Jiang Manyue to come over and visit as well.
Jiang Manyue agreed, and Sister Ma went back happily.
In the afternoon, Jiang Manyue went to Sister Ma's house with some snacks.
Sister Ma scolded her for a long time and told her not to bring anything next time.
Jiang Manyue agreed, and Sister Ma put the snacks she brought on a plate and waited for someone to come.
After a while, the girl came first, and Sister Ma introduced the two to each other.
"This is Liu Xuemei, you and Manyue are probably about the same age. This is Jiang Manyue, the wife of Deputy Headmaster Lu next door. We just happened to come over to chat."
Jiang Manyue and Liu Xuemei nodded to each other, but Jiang Manyue couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Liu Xuemei did look young, at most about the same age as her, with a pair of pigtails, looking quite youthful, and not likely to be married.
Brother Cheng is already in his thirties and has been married twice. Although he holds a relatively high position, people of Liu Xuemei's age are usually getting married for the first time and rarely choose someone like Brother Cheng.
Jiang Manyue thought, could it be that Sister Ma didn’t explain Brother Cheng’s situation clearly to others?
While she was thinking about it, there was a knock on Sister Ma's door.
"It must be Jianyong. I'll go open the door."
Sister Ma quickly opened the door and led Cheng Jianyong in, who was dressed in a neat military uniform.
"Xuemei, this is the Cheng Jianyong I was talking about, Deputy Headmaster Cheng."
Sister Ma introduced herself to Cheng Jianyong again, and then asked him to sit down quickly.
Cheng Jianyong greeted Liu Xuemei, but his heart was pounding.
Why did Sister Ma introduce such a little girl to him?
She looks like she just graduated from high school and doesn't look like she's married.
Cheng Jianyong has been married twice, so he never thought that others would introduce him to unmarried young women.
When Sister Ma said she wanted to introduce him to a girl, he only wanted a lesbian who was like him, divorced or widowed.
But I didn't expect that when we met, she turned out to be a young girl with pigtails and a youthful face.
This made Cheng Jianyong a little at a loss, and he didn't know what to say.
Jiang Manyue didn't say anything either. She thought that the more she said, the more mistakes she would make. It would be better for her to just be a background board here.
Seeing that no one was talking, Sister Ma had to stand up and liven up the atmosphere.
"Jianyong, let me tell you, Xuemei is a good girl. She takes care of the housework in an orderly manner. She also raised my younger brother. She is very good at taking care of children."
Cheng Jianyong smiled awkwardly, "Um, Comrade Xuemei, I see you're not very old. Are you, are you not married yet?"
Liu Xuemei lowered her head and said "hmm", seeming quite embarrassed.
Cheng Jianyong couldn't help but glance at Sister Ma. Why did she introduce an unmarried young woman to him? He was already married for the third time and had a child. It wasn't appropriate!
Jiang Manyue also looked at Sister Ma. She just wanted to know whether Comrade Xuemei knew about Brother Cheng's family situation.
Sister Ma seemed not to notice Cheng Jianyong winking at her. She said she was going to pour him some water and went into the kitchen.
Cheng Jianyong had no choice but to speak awkwardly, "Um, Comrade Xuemei, I don't know if Sister Ma didn't explain it to you clearly, but I've been married twice and have a child, and you're still an unmarried comrade. This, this isn't quite appropriate."
Liu Xuemei shook her head. "Comrade Jianyong, Sister Ma explained it clearly to me. You've had two wives before, and you have a son who just started elementary school. I know all of this."
Jiang Manyue's eyes moved back and forth between Cheng Jianyong and Liu Xuemei, and she still felt a little surprised.
Comrade Xuemei agreed to come for a blind date even though she knew that she was a stepmother who had been married for the third time. Does that mean she really doesn't mind this?
"I don't mind if you're married and have children. As long as you're a good person and can live a good life with me, I'll be satisfied."
Liu Xuemei seemed to be very open-minded and didn't care at all about Cheng Jianyong's condition of getting married for the third time and having a child, which made others want to leave.
Sister Ma also came back with water. "Look, Jianyong, Sister Ma is not kidding you. Comrade Xuemei knows your situation. She just wants to be practical. As long as you can live a good life, it doesn't matter if you're married or older. You'll be caring!"
Cheng Jianyong didn't know what to say now. This blind date was completely beyond his expectations.
Who would have thought that Sister Ma would introduce him to an unmarried lesbian and not care about his family situation at all.
"Jianyong, Comrade Xuemei is a rare and good girl. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again."
Sister Ma tried her best to bring the two together, and even winked at Jiang Manyue, indicating that she should go out with her, leaving space for Cheng Jianyong and Liu Xuemei to talk alone.
Jiang Manyue understood, stood up, found an excuse and went out with Sister Ma.
