"Mom, are you in a hurry to marry me off?" Song Jinxiu asked Xia's mother when she returned home in the evening.
"Why, do you have someone you like?" Xia's mother asked back.
"Not really, it's just that I'm in my twenties and I'm afraid you'll worry about my marriage." Song Jinxiu said, resting her head on Xia's mother's legs.
"You just came back, if possible, I really don't want to marry you off.
But you also said that you are already in your twenties, so if you find someone suitable, you should consider it carefully." Mother Xia said as she helped Song Jinxiu remove the hair from her face.
"Okay, I get it. Just go with the flow. If there's someone suitable, get married. If not, keep playing around."
Anyway, you can support me, so I can just stay at home and do nothing but eat." Song Jinxiu said happily.
"Well, I want to find someone with a simple family and a good relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If you like someone, please tell me.
I'll go back and ask about the man's family situation." Xia's mother said.
"I'm not in a hurry, there's nothing worth looking at, it's just those older women at work who like to introduce me to some.
I was thinking, let's just meet her, maybe there will be someone suitable." Song Jinxiu said while playing with Xia's mother's hand.
Xia Mu's hands are very beautiful, slender and straight, but now there are some thin calluses.
"Mom, you must have been very beautiful when you were young." Song Jinxiu suddenly said.
"Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to give birth to children as good-looking as mine and my brother."
"Why are you so shameless? Are you praising me or yourself?" Mother Xia pinched Song Jinxiu's face with a smile.
"Hehehe, all praises are given." Song Jinxiu said with a smile.
Soon, Sister Niu gave Song Jinxiu a movie ticket, and the two parties agreed to meet directly at the cinema after get off work tomorrow.
Song Jinxiu gave Sister Niu a handful of candy.
"Sister, I'll treat you to some candy. Thank you for your hard work, no matter whether you succeed or not!" Song Jinxiu said with a smile.
"Kid, I don't like candy, so keep it for yourself.
It's not that hard, I just like seeing you single young people become couples." Sister Niu said cheerfully.
Her hobby is to help people around her to be matchmakers.
"Then take it back to your little grandson. Children love sweet things the most." Song Jinxiu peeled a candy and put it in her mouth. "I'm still a child too."
This made everyone in the office laugh.
It was soon time to get off work, and Song Jinxiu went back to say hello to Xia's mother before heading to the cinema.
She didn't bring the bicycle from Yang City, so Xia Xingchen bought her a new women's bicycle in Jing City.
When I arrived at the cinema and parked the car, I saw a man in military uniform at the door, looking around.
Song Jinxiu was located just diagonally behind him.
After parking the car, Song Jinxiu walked forward and asked, "Excuse me, is this Chow Sang Sang?"
The other person just turned around, revealing his handsome face. He was of suitable height, had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a square face, which is the most popular appearance among people nowadays.
The man showed his white teeth and said, "Hello, Comrade Song, I am Chow Sang Sang."
After greeting each other, they walked into the cinema together.
The other person was quite talkative and spoke in a humorous way, which was totally inconsistent with his serious appearance.
Moreover, his family conditions should be good, and his words revealed full confidence and composure.
He has a bit of the vibe of a successful person, which should be very attractive to young girls.
While watching the movie, Song Jinxiu stole several glances at Zhou Shengsheng, all of which were caught by his sparkling eyes.
Song Jinxiu was not embarrassed. She smiled at him friendly and then focused on watching the movie.
Zhou Shengsheng smiled confidently, no one could resist his damn charm.
He's still worried that no one wants him, when it's obvious that there's nothing he likes.
As for Song Jinxiu, she seems pretty good to me so far.
She has a sweet smile, and it makes you feel good.
After the two of them finished watching the movie, Song Jinxiu declined the suggestion of having dinner together and rode her bike home.
Although there is no shortage of food in Beijing, the price is not cheap.
Song Jinxiu has never liked taking advantage of others, and it's not like she can't afford to eat.
When he got home, Mr. and Mrs. Xia were sitting in the hall waiting for Song Jinxiu.
"Why did you come back so soon? Didn't you eat?" Mother Xia asked a question.
But he walked towards the kitchen and prepared to make a bowl of noodles for Song Jinxiu.
"Yeah, it was our first meeting, and having dinner together seemed like I was taking advantage of the other person, so I refused.
Besides, I don’t feel comfortable eating with people I don’t know well.” Song Jinxiu said.
"That's right. Girls should be careful when they are outside. You have food to eat at home, so there is no need to eat other people's food." Father Xia nodded and said.
In just a few words, Xia's mother had cooked the noodles. "Go wash your hands and eat noodles."
Song Jinxiu washed her hands, added green vegetables to the noodles, and Xia's mother made her an egg.
"Home-cooked food is still delicious. The food outside doesn't taste like my mom's." Song Jinxiu took a deep breath and praised.
"You are the only one who keeps talking nonsense. Eat quickly." Mother Xia scolded with a smile.
"How was the person you saw today? Did you like him? Do you know whose family he belongs to?" asked Xia's mother as she sat next to them.
"It's just like that. I don't know who it belongs to, I just know it's called Chow Sang Sang." Song Jinxiu said.
"Don't you like it?" asked Xia's mother.
"Well, he's tall, with striking features, and he's quite humorous and witty, but..." Song Jinxiu paused and said, "He's a little dark."
"Oh, I thought it was something else, isn't it normal for soldiers to be a little dark?
"You train all day, outside in the sun, wind and rain, it would be strange if you weren't tanned," said Father Xia.
"There are different levels of tan. Some people's tans are just wheat-colored, or even burnt wheat-colored. But this Zhou Shengsheng, he..."
Song Jinxiu thought about her words and said, "I was secretly watching him in the cinema, and I almost lost sight of him.
Only two sparkling eyes and a row of white teeth are left.
"Well, this is indeed a bit dark." Mother Xia said with a frown.
"So dark? His surname is Zhou, and everyone in his family is a soldier. Wife, I think I know who he is." Father Xia said.
"It's the Zhou Dahei family. It seems like there aren't any white men in their family.
"But I saw Zhou Xiaohei a few months ago, and he wasn't as exaggerated as my daughter said. At most, he was a little darker than the average person," said Father Xia.
"By the way, Sister Niu seemed to say that he just came back from a mission." Song Jinxiu said.
"That's possible, maybe there's another outdoor mission.
But this week Xiao Hei, apart from being a little dark, is actually a pretty good person.
But my daughter, you see, our family members are all quite fair. If something happens suddenly, there will be a genetic mutation.
Come to think of it, it's a bit scary," said Father Xia.
