Meanwhile, Sheng Yunfei, who was tidying up the worktable, accidentally dropped the bowl of noodles onto the worktable, spilling the flour.
Sheng Yunfei was in a flurry of activity. She quickly shoved the noodles back into the bowl, then put the bowl in a basin, picked up a stack of basins, and hurried to the kitchen.
Wu Yucheng glanced at Sheng Yunfei's back, then angrily sat down on a chair.
"You want me to go on a blind date? Are you kidding me? With my current net worth, you want me to go on a blind date? Don't I have any dignity?"
If Mom really makes me go on blind dates, I won't stay home. Either I'll go back to Shenzhen, or I'll go with Xiping to his house for the New Year.
"Uncle, how about I go back to Northeast China with you for the New Year?" Wu Yucheng turned to ask Sheng Liancheng.
Sheng Liancheng was stunned. How was he supposed to answer that?
"Ahem, well, Yucheng, you should go home and talk to your parents first."
Your family is concerned about you; after all, you're not young anymore, and it's understandable that they're worried.
Well, there's nothing wrong with blind dates. I met your aunt through a blind date, and look at us, we're doing just fine, aren't we?"
As an elder, Sheng Liancheng naturally couldn't follow Wu Yucheng's lead and could only try to persuade him.
Upon hearing Sheng Liancheng's words, Wu Yucheng was completely disoriented, like a wilted eggplant.
"So what if I'm single? Being single doesn't bother anyone, it's not like I'm committing murder or arson." He sat there, muttering to himself.
Just then, someone in the kitchen called out that the dumplings were cooked. They went over to get the dumplings, and Sheng Xiping and the others quickly went to help, thus changing the subject.
Steaming hot dumplings were served, filling the entire table. Once the last plate of dumplings was scooped out of the pot and brought out, everyone quickly sat down to eat.
"Mmm, these dumplings are delicious, so fresh! I knew Auntie's cooking skills must be excellent. Today's dumplings are so good."
While eating, Wu Yucheng praised Zhang Shuzhen's dumplings as being delicious.
Zhang Shuzhen was so happy that she quickly pushed another plate of three-delicacy dumplings over.
"Yucheng, come and try this. It's chives, shrimp, and egg. It's delicious."
These chives are hard to find; there are only a few small bunches available, and they're quite expensive. Why don't you try some and see if you like them?
The capital city is naturally much better off than other parts of Northeast China. There are many vegetable farmers in the suburbs of Beijing who build greenhouses in winter.
Plant some fresh vegetables like chives and garlic sprouts, harvest them, and sell them. Of course, the price won't be low.
Zhang Shuzhen didn't know her daughter-in-law's taste, so she bought some and specially made dumplings with a three-ingredient filling.
"Oh, thank you, Auntie, let me try it." Wu Yucheng said, picking up a dumpling and putting it in his mouth.
The dumplings were fresh out of the pot and still quite hot, burning him so much that he grimaced, but he nodded repeatedly. "Mmm, mmm, delicious, these dumplings are so good."
Everyone ate a good meal. After finishing the dumplings and drinking the hot dumpling soup, they felt warm all over and were incredibly comfortable.
Wu Yucheng sat there for a while longer, took out the things he had bought for his sister and gave them to Wu Yuhua, then picked up his bag, said goodbye and left.
"Yu Cheng is a strange kid. He's almost thirty, but he's not in a hurry to get married."
That evening, Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen lay in bed, and Sheng Liancheng couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"If this happened to my own child, I would be so worried that I wouldn't be able to sleep at night."
"Look at you, that kid isn't getting married, it must be because the right person isn't meant to be."
Nowadays, people value free love and affection. A wife isn't some wild dandelion that you can just pick and choose from.
Do you think it's like back in our day, where two people didn't even know each other, met once, thought it looked good, and then got married and started living together?
Zhang Shuzhen was tired from working all day and felt drowsy as soon as she lay down. Hearing her husband's words, she couldn't not respond, so she just closed her eyes and said a few words.
"You don't need to worry about others; we still have three children in our family who are still unemployed."
The sixth brother is easy to deal with, but those two girls, who knows what kind of men they'll end up marrying. You'll have plenty of sleepless nights to come.”
