Yun Qiao said, "Now there is such a thing."
"Actually, many people have introduced couples to your brother," Feng Juan said. "Since your brother was in his twenties, over the past ten years or so, there have been quite a few very attractive girls. It's a pity that your brother hasn't had the heart to get married. As time went by, many of the girls who were meant to get married have already gotten married, and he's missed out on all of them."
Yun Qiao said, "Mom, fate is hard to predict. Maybe my brother's true love just came late."
"It doesn't matter if it comes early or late. He's already in his thirties, so how late can it get?" Feng Juan sighed and said, "I just hope he and Comrade Yan Jingwan can get together. Comrade Yan Jingwan may be a bit of a loner, but she's a nice person. Last week, I ran into her at the grocery store. Seeing how much I was buying, she offered to help me carry a bag of potatoes. I don't think your brother is too overly enthusiastic, but I don't know what concerns she has for not agreeing to be with your brother."
"Maybe it's family reasons."
Speaking of Yan Jingwan, Yun Qiao sighed and said, "Based on what her father did, it's hard for her to believe in marriage again, let alone enter into it."
"Ah, your brother's road to family life has been quite bumpy." Feng Juan sighed, "I don't know when she will be able to resolve this knot in her heart."
"That might be a little difficult."
Childhood trauma often takes time to heal.
"Forget it, forget it. Your brother is calm enough on his own. Why should I get so anxious? It's like the emperor is anxious but the eunuch is."
Feng Juan wiped her hands clean and said, "Let me try this mung bean cake Liang Yin gave me."
After saying that, she opened the wax paper outside the pastry box, pinched out a piece of mung bean cake, took a bite, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yun Qiao, try this mung bean cake. It has a strong milky flavor and tastes different from the mung bean cakes we have here."
"Let me try it." Yun Qiao took out a piece and tasted it as he said. It was full of milk flavor.
"Really? This isn't the mung bean cake we buy here."
"It should be bought from Inner Mongolia," Feng Juan said. "There are pastures there, and they produce a lot of milk."
"No wonder."
Yun Qiao smiled and said, "This kind of mung bean cake with milk shouldn't be cheap. Comrade Liang Yin must be marrying into a well-off family."
"It's pretty good." Liang Yin would always visit her home when she passed by the capital to visit her relatives, so Feng Juan also knew something about the situation of her husband's family.
"Liang Yin's father-in-law and her father, Commander Liang, were old comrades who served on the battlefield together. He transitioned from military service to politics a few years ago and initially served as the Public Security Bureau Director in his hometown. He later became a major official for solving a case and was promoted to the city level. He is now a leader among the city's public security officers. Liang Yin's husband is in the Inner Mongolia Air Force and seems to be a battalion commander."
"Air Force, are they pilots?" Yun Qiao asked curiously.
Feng Juan shook her head: "It doesn't seem so. I'm not sure what kind of troops they are."
Yun Qiao said "Oh".
Feng Juan continued, "By the way, isn't it time for Tingjun to come?"
"It should be soon." Yun Qiao said, "He has been out for four days. Normally, a routine inspection mission only takes five or six days at most."
Feng Juan nodded: "Then I'll mix some leavened dough and steam a pot of steamed buns tonight. We don't have many steamed buns at home. If he comes today, there won't be enough steamed buns to eat."
