Chapter 240 Zhang Xinxin comes to visit
Seeing that it was early, she started making cookies. Her parents couldn't eat anything too sweet at their age, so Ai Xiaoxia planned to make more cookies and snacks for her parents in the future.
Thinking that I would bring some for An Ning, I made two kinds, one with normal sweetness and one with less sugar.
After it was done, I put it in the cardboard box I made and packed it.
After having lunch with Lu Jingshen at noon, she went back to her parents' home to wait for her second brother Lin Rui. It was already 1:20 when she got home, so she put her things down and sat in the living room to read the newspaper.
Before half past one, Lin Rui came back. Before he even entered the door, he started shouting, "Xiaoxia, your second brother bought you something delicious. Come and pick it up."
Ai Xiaoxia quickly ran to the door and saw Lin Rui coming in with a bag of snacks. He gave them all to Ai Xiaoxia and then started to change his shoes.
Ai Xiaoxia took the bag and took a look. Wow, it was full of snacks. "Second brother, you are so kind."
Lin Rui changed his shoes and walked into the house, saying, "You're better. I have to wear the clothes you made for me today." He clenched his fists to encourage himself, "Now An Ning asks me everything and trusts me very much."
Ai Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Then you should quickly settle the relationship, otherwise how can you be at ease?"
Lin Rui said: "I'm preparing. I'll confess my feelings in a few days when I'm ready, so that you can have a second sister-in-law sooner."
Ai Xiaoxia was about to say that she would help Lin Rui prepare when the door of the master bedroom opened: "What did you two just say?" Huang Wanxia came out and looked at the two of them with surprise and asked.
She had a slight headache today, so she took a leave and came back early to sleep for a while. Just now, she heard her son and daughter talking in a daze, so she came out. Unexpectedly, she heard Lin Rui say that he wanted to confess his love, and she suddenly lost all sleepiness.
Ai Xiaoxia and Lin Rui stood awkwardly opposite Huang Wanxia, scratching their heads in sync, which was very harmonious.
Huang Wanxia looked at the two and knew they were hiding something, so she quickly turned to Ai Xiaoxia and asked, "Xiaoxia, listen up and tell me what's going on. Is your brother in love? It's not something to be ashamed of, it's a good thing. Tell Mom about it."
Ai Xiaoxia looked at Lin Rui: "Brother, I can't lie."
Lin Rui knew he couldn't hide it anymore, so he confessed directly to Huang Wanxia, "Mom, there's a girl I've always liked, but we had a misunderstanding and missed each other. We've been in touch again recently and the misunderstanding has been resolved. I plan to confess my feelings to her, but Mom, can you please not get excited yet? I have to take this matter slowly."
Huang Wanxia is impatient: "Why take it slow? You're not young anymore. If it's interesting, just decide on it."
Ai Xiaoxia knew that Lin Rui would not stop until his family knew about it. She quickly helped Lin Rui and said to Huang Wanxia, "Mom, there was a deep misunderstanding between my second brother and Sister An Ning, so you need to give them some time alone. That girl is quite quiet, so it's not appropriate to rush her."
Huang Wanxia looked at Ai Xiaoxia with a face full of grievance: "Your second brother hid it from me, and you hid it from me too. You two are going too far. You didn't let your father and I know about this good thing."
Ai Xiaoxia held Huang Wanxia's arm and said, "Mom, if you had known this earlier, you would have forced me to take you with you to secretly see other girls. If we messed up again, wouldn't our second brother cry in front of us?"
Huang Wanxia smiled and said, "That's right. Actually, I'm curious now. Why don't you take Mom to take a sneak peek."
Ai Xiaoxia quickly refused: "Mom, wait a few days, my second brother and his friends have confirmed their relationship, then I'll let him bring Sister An Ning back directly."
Huang Wanxia looked at Lin Rui and said, "We agreed. Hurry up." Then she added, "Wait for me." Then she ran into the house.
Huang Wanxia came out again soon and gave Lin Rui two hundred yuan: "Be generous when pursuing girls."
Lin Rui took the money and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mom. I will definitely bring the person back to you as soon as possible."
Ai Xiaoxia was afraid that Huang Wanxia would miss them and follow them again, so she quickly brought the cookies over: "Mom, I made some cookies for you and Dad with less sugar and oil. You can eat them healthily. If you like the taste, I will make them for you often in the future."
As she spoke, she winked at Lin Rui, asking him to change his clothes.
Lin Rui quickly took the opportunity to go into the house to change clothes.
Huang Wanxia was very happy to hear her daughter say: "My daughter is the best, a caring little cotton-padded jacket." After that, she opened a box of cookies and ate a piece: "Well, my daughter is very skillful and makes delicious cookies."
Ai Xiaoxia quickly took another dessert for Huang Wanxia: "Mom, try this, Margarita. It's made with egg yolks, starch, butter, and sugar. See if it tastes like boiled egg yolks."
Huang Wanxia ate one and said: "It melts in your mouth and you can't taste the egg yolk at all."
While they were talking about snacks, Lin Rui came out after changing his clothes.
Ai Xiaoxia stood up and said to Huang Wanxia, "Mom, my second brother and I are going to visit a friend. We'll be back for dinner tonight."
Before Huang Wanxia could react, Ai Xiaoxia and Lin Rui had already hurried out.
Seeing how well the two children were getting along, Huang Wanxia smiled while sitting on the sofa. Xiaoxia and Aizhu were really different. It was so nice to have her own daughters.
Huang Wanxia was so happy that she felt her headache was gone, she felt refreshed, and could even sing a few lines of a song.
Ai Xiaoxia and Lin Rui left the residential complex. Just as they reached the door, a girl called out to Lin Rui, "Lin Rui, I finally saw you."
Lin Rui looked over in the direction of the voice, his eyes widening in shock: "Zhang Xinxin, you still dare to come to me?"
Ai Xiaoxia was completely bewildered. Is this the legendary Zhang Xinxin? How shameless! And most importantly, how could she have the nerve to come to Lin Rui? What was she trying to do? We hadn't even bothered to settle accounts with her yet, and she'd come here on her own? Ai Xiaoxia really wanted to see what this woman was up to.
Zhang Xinxin looks like a pretty girl next door, quite delicate and pretty, but she gives people a somewhat artificial feeling.
Zhang Xinxin looked at Lin Rui with a pitiful expression: "Lin Rui, I know there is a misunderstanding between us. I came to you today to explain this matter."
Lin Rui laughed: "Is that a misunderstanding? You are dirty, filthy and shameless."
Zhang Xinxin looked at Lin Rui, tears streaming down her face. "Lin Rui, it's okay for others to say anything about me, but you can't say this to me. I really like you. I did all those things because I wanted to be with you. What did I do wrong?"
Ai Xiaoxia frowned at Zhang Xinxin. She felt that she looked familiar, but it seemed she had never seen her before. She said to Zhang Xinxin, "It's okay if you like her. Even fair competition is fine, but you can't use despicable means. An Ning is your friend. Aren't you disgusted by what you did? Do you still think you are a good person?"
Zhang Xinxin was furious after hearing what Ai Xiaoxia said, but she had always pretended to be weak and innocent, as if she had really been like this for many years.
She suppressed her anger and said to Ai Xiaoxia, "I don't know why you are so hostile to me, but I really don't think the way you say. I have always regarded An Ning as a friend."
