Chapter 62 What a Perfect Match
Downstairs, Li Xu did not go to the market, but waited at the door of the unit.
What if Zhang Kun came over and didn't see her, and went to knock on the door, wouldn't he run into Li Yong?
It's still early spring and the weather is very cold.
After waiting for about half an hour, Zhang Kun came over.
Seeing Li Xu waiting downstairs, and the car already full of food, he asked in confusion: "Why didn't you wait for me to come?"
Li Xu smiled and said nothing.
Zhang Kun rode his bike to the vegetable market.
Li Xu sat in the back, looking at Zhang Kun's back, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Upstairs, Li Yong looked at the scene with a thoughtful look on his face. Judging from his master's familiarity, it should not be the first time.
Zhang Kun and Li Xu soon arrived at the entrance of the vegetable market. Zhang Kun reached out, picked up all the vegetables, and was about to carry them all to the stall for Li Xu.
But who knew that Li Xu stopped it.
She held Zhang Kun's arm and whispered, "Don't come here in the morning from now on."
Zhang Kun was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
"I just think it's too much trouble for you. I only work a few hours a day. The rest of the time I stay at home. It's not tiring for me. What's more, I'm a single woman and it's easy for others to misunderstand me when they see me."
As soon as Li Xu finished speaking, Zhang Kun frowned: "What's wrong? Did someone say something to you?"
Seeing that Zhang Kun had misunderstood, Li Xu quickly shook her head: "No, no one said anything, I just think this is not good."
After hesitating for a while, Li Xu lowered her head and whispered, "I have three children and I don't plan to remarry in the future. What others say doesn't matter to me. But you are still young, and I don't want to affect you. I know you feel sorry for the four of us, but our life is really not as hard as you imagine."
Li Xu said everything he wanted to say in a tactful way.
This way, no one would be embarrassed, and Zhang Kun would understand what she meant. This was the statement she came up with after thinking it over for a whole night.
However, I always felt guilty and didn't dare to look at Zhang Kun's eyes.
After Li Xu finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene became a little silent.
Zhang Kun opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but finally nodded: "I understand. Since I'm here today, I'll help you carry it in."
Having said that, without waiting for Li Xu to say anything else, he directly picked up the bamboo basket and put it on Li Xu's stall.
After putting it down, Zhang Kun left.
Li Xu was still very busy, but a little absent-minded. She collected the wrong money several times. It was only when Liang Huimei next to her reminded her that she realized it.
All the dishes were sold out, and Li Xu breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong? You've been distracted all morning. Did you have a fight with your husband?" Liang Huimei asked jokingly.
Li Xu's expression turned serious: "Sister Liang, don't make such jokes again in the future. He is just a friend of my brother. We have no other relationship."
Seeing Li Xu's serious expression, Liang Huimei knew that she was speaking from the heart, so she said, "You are such a good match, you are so stubborn."
Although they had only met a few times, she could tell that the man was interested in Li Xu. He was good-looking and she could tell at a glance that he was better than Li Xu's dead ex-husband.
I heard he was a chef, working in the company cafeteria. Being a chef is so good these days, you don't have to worry about food and clothing.
"She's still young and doesn't have any children. You can't joke like that." Li Xu said as he packed up his things and rushed home.
At the Li family's dining table, Li Yong took a spoon and added a spoonful of tomato and egg soup to Ji Zixuan's bowl before asking, "Has Uncle Zhang Kun come over again recently?"
Ji Zixuan shook his head: "No, I haven't been here for a long time."
Li Yong secretly curled his lips, it seemed that he was hiding it from the children.
"Tell me honestly, you three, what do you think of Uncle Zhang Kun?" Li Yong asked seriously.
Ji Yuanyuan's eyes had already started rolling around since Li Yong asked about Zhang Kun just now.
So, when Li Yong asked them about their opinions on Zhang Kun, Ji Yuanyuan raised her hand very actively and said, "I think Uncle Zhang Kun is very good."
Ji Ziang nodded nonchalantly: "It's pretty good. The snacks given during the Chinese New Year were delicious. I wonder if I can still eat them during the Chinese New Year this year."
Both children expressed their opinions, only Ji Zixuan didn't say anything. Li Yong looked at Ji Zixuan.
Ji Zixuan is already eleven years old this year, and he is more mature than other children of the same age. So when Li Yong asked this question, he seemed to vaguely know something.
So, he lowered his head, slowly ate the noodles in the bowl, and didn't say anything.
Seeing that Ji Zixuan didn't say anything and didn't even look at him, Li Yong couldn't help but ask, "Zixuan, what do you think?"
When the question came to him, Ji Zixuan raised his head, looked at Li Yong seriously and said, "We have only met Uncle Zhang a few times, so I don't know him very well."
After saying that, he put down his chopsticks and said, "Thank you, second uncle. I'm full."
He turned and walked towards his bedroom.
Li Yong looked at Ji Zixuan's back and was speechless for a moment.
After a while, he sighed: Forget it, let it be, he doesn't care anymore.
Li Xu came back very quickly. Li Yong knew that Li Xu didn't want him to know about this, otherwise she wouldn't have run downstairs to wait for Zhang Kun at six o'clock in the morning.
So, he was tactful and didn't ask any more questions.
Li Xu cleaned the house and had lunch before taking the children to the department store.
In the department store, there is a floor dedicated to selling home appliances, including refrigerators, washing machines, televisions, tape recorders, table lamps...
There were all kinds of home appliances, and Li Xu took the children straight to the place where washing machines were sold.
Seeing such a large family coming, the salesperson knew that the family was sincere in wanting to buy something, so he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Do you want to buy a washing machine?"
Li Xu nodded: "I want to buy one, how much is it?"
The salesperson introduced enthusiastically: "We have products of all prices here, including 300 yuan, 500 yuan, 800 yuan, and 1,000 yuan."
Li Xu was secretly shocked. The cheapest one cost three hundred yuan.
"Then let's take a look at the 300 yuan one." Li Xu said quickly.
Although it is expensive, since I have already promised the child, I must do what I say.
This way children will be motivated when studying.
"Ma'am, I don't recommend you to buy the three hundred yuan one. Because this three hundred yuan one is semi-automatic, and you need to change the water and drain the water yourself, which is very troublesome. It's better to buy a better one than to buy it once. This five hundred yuan one is good, it's fully automatic. If you think it's good, I can apply for a discount for you." The salesperson was very eloquent.
Ji Ziang immediately said, "Mom, let's take a look at the 500 yuan one."
