"I'm sorry, Auntie, I already have a boyfriend."
Wang Fuxiang was praising the groom's family when Zhou Cailian interrupted her.
She was taken aback. "What? You have a boyfriend?"
"Yes, it was discussed in Dongguan Province."
Wang Fuxiang looked at Yu Qiuying, "Qiuying, Cailian really has a boyfriend? Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Zhou Cailian feigned shyness and said, "Auntie, my mom doesn't know yet. My boyfriend and I just started dating, and I'm too embarrassed to tell my mom about it. I was thinking of waiting until after the New Year to go there and talk about it."
Yu Qiuying: "..."
She twitched the corners of her mouth and played along with Zhou Cailian, saying, "So that's why you've been going out to play so much lately. Turns out you've been dating someone. You silly girl, I'm your own mother. What's there to be embarrassed about telling me you're dating someone?"
The mother and daughter sang in unison, looking quite serious.
Wang Fuxiang had no choice but to give up.
Yu Qiuying and Zhou Cailian both breathed a sigh of relief.
The next morning, however, he found that he had breathed a sigh of relief too soon.
Wang Fuxiang came over early in the morning again.
Yu Qiuying and Zhou Cailian both thought she hadn't given up, but Wang Fuxiang said with a smile, "I didn't come here today to see Cailian, I came to see you."
Yu Qiuying was taken aback. "Looking for me? What do you want?"
"Hehe... what else could it be? I'm here to play matchmaker for you."
Yu Qiuying: "..."
Zhou Cailian: "..."
"Qiuying, let me tell you, you're only in your forties, you're still young. Your husband has been gone for so many years, and you've raised several children all by yourself. Now it's time to think about yourself!"
"Here's the thing, my cousin is three years older than you. He's very handsome, hardworking, capable, and family-oriented. His wife was unlucky; she died of illness five years ago. My cousin is now living alone and feels a bit lonely, so he's looking for someone to share his life with. That's when I thought of you. I think you and my cousin are a good match. How about I arrange for you two to meet?"
Yu Qiuying: "..."
He says he wants to find a soulmate to live with, but he clearly just wants a free housekeeper to take care of him.
Her attitude immediately turned cold. "I'm too old for that. Go find someone else."
"Oh dear, you're not that old at all. You'll only be forty-six after the New Year, right? You're still young. Why don't you meet my cousin first? He's a really nice guy, very caring. All his sons are married with children, so he doesn't have to worry about them. He can just live his own life from now on. Let me tell you..."
Seeing that Wang Fuxiang was going on and on, Yu Qiuying quickly interrupted her, "Go find someone else, I really don't have the mind for that."
"Alright then." Wang Fuxiang's expression stiffened, noticing Yu Qiuying's impatience, and she gave an awkward smile.
After she left, Yu Qiuying rubbed her forehead, feeling a bit of a headache, and said, "What kind of mess is this?"
Zhou Cailian was also a little speechless, "I still prefer to stay in Dongguan Province, it's quiet and comfortable."
The two originally thought that since they had refused so decisively, Wang Fuxiang would not come again.
To everyone's surprise, Wang Fuxiang never came back, but her cousin actually came to their house.
