Zhao Huanhuan didn't notice Lin Yuan's expression. She smiled and exchanged a few polite words with the old lady before quickly turning around and leaving.
If they continued chatting, she would give herself away. She didn't know anything about her aunt's family, so it wasn't appropriate to have a deep conversation. She also couldn't just keep making awkward conversations and praising Lin Yuan, could she?
That would be so awkward for Lin Yuan to stand there.
Most men probably don't like being praised for their looks or personality. They would prefer to be praised for their abilities, bravery, and competence. But this old woman didn't mention a single word about bravery, ability, or competence. She just kept saying that Lin Yuan was good-looking, tall, and a good match for her.
After turning around, Zhao Huanhuan glanced at Lin Yuan and noticed that his expression was indifferent. When they met her gaze, Lin Yuan managed to force a not-so-happy smile.
Zhao Huanhuan thought to herself, "Sure enough, no man likes to be complimented on his looks."
When they passed by the public restroom, Zhao Huanhuan went to use it, and Lin Yuan obediently waited outside for her, carrying her bag.
"Did your mom make this little bag for you?" Lin Yuan thought the little bag looked like it was made by herself.
It's small and cute, and it's embroidered with lotus flower patterns.
Zhao Huanhuan nodded, "Yes, my mom sewed it. She made it for me after I started working."
The original owner's diary mentions that lotus flowers were the original owner's favorite flower, and the small bag was a gift from her mother to her going to work.
But what she likes is roses.
It has a bright color, a rich aroma, and a beautiful meaning.
When they arrived at Zhang's, there weren't many people eating breakfast. There were several empty tables. While Lin Yuan went to find a table to sit down, Zhao Huanhuan asked the owner for some water to wash her hands, and then ordered two bowls of tofu and three fried dough sticks.
I ordered both bowls of tofu with chili peppers.
Yesterday, while eating, she discovered that Lin Yuan also ate spicy food, so Zhao Huanhuan paid for breakfast without using food coupons.
But this breakfast was really cheap. A bowl of tofu cost eight cents and a fried dough stick cost five cents. Their breakfast only cost 31 cents in total.
When she arrived, breakfast had just been served.
“I saw you eating spicy food yesterday, so I asked you to add a little bit too,” Zhao Huanhuan said to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, either is fine. I'm not picky about food, I can eat spicy or not."
When the two of them focused on their meal, they could really appreciate how delicious the food was from this long-established restaurant. The broth for the tofu pudding was excellent, and the addition of seasonings like chive blossoms, garlic juice, scallions, sesame oil, and chili oil made the tofu pudding absolutely amazing.
Zhao Huanhuan took a bite and sighed contentedly. This was exactly the taste. She never imagined that tofu pudding would taste like this decades ago.
Lin Yuan chuckled softly when she saw her expression. "You like it very much?"
Zhao Huanhuan nodded and said, "I used to eat that often."
Zhao Huanhuan only ate one fried dough stick, and gave the remaining two to Lin Yuan. "Is that enough?"
Lin Yuan nodded, "That's enough. I don't eat much when I'm not training."
As the two were eating, an older woman came in to buy fried dough sticks. When she saw Zhao Huanhuan, she was surprised and walked over to take a closer look. "Hey, aren't you Huanhuan from the Zhao family? Didn't your mother say you went to the countryside to work?"
Zhao Huanhuan quickly wiped her mouth and turned to greet the aunt, "Hello, Auntie, it's me. I came back last night to see my parents. I'll be going back in a few days."
"Oh, this is... your boyfriend?" The aunt looked Lin Yuan up and down and asked with a smile.
Zhao Huanhuan nodded generously, "Yes, I'll bring her back to meet my parents."
Lin Yuan also stood up, greeted her aunt, and invited her to sit down and eat together.
"He must be a soldier. You've always had good taste, kid. Sigh, my Mao Tao is so blind, I can't even describe it!" The aunt waved her hand with a smile, then sighed softly.
"Peach?" Zhao Huanhuan immediately knew which family's aunt this was.
Last night, my parents told my aunt about how my sister from the Li family got married to a male worker at her workplace. Apparently, they slept together beforehand, and it seemed like they had no choice but to get married. As for whether they have children, nobody knows.
Uncle Li was a minor leader in his workplace. The elderly couple originally wanted their daughter to marry a worker with a certain position, but they never expected that their daughter would be so rebellious. She started dating a temporary worker in the workplace and even slept with him.
It is said that he looks quite ordinary, but he is very eloquent and speaks in a very sophisticated way, which captivated the older sister of the Li family.
"Auntie, there's no need to worry. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Sister Maotao chose him herself, so I'm sure her husband has qualities she likes!" Zhao Huanhuan said with a smile, comforting Aunt Li.
Aunt Li looked worried, sighed, shook her head, bought two fried dough sticks, and left.
Outsiders all think this way, just like the Zhao family, but what is the truth?
Only the excrement that goes out knows what each family eats every day.
Her daughter is now reaping the consequences of her willfulness. After getting married, she discovered she was pregnant, but her husband suspected that the child might not be his.
After all, if Li Tao could sleep with him before marriage, who knows if she had slept with other people behind his back?
Aunt Li had just visited her daughter a few days ago, hoping to secretly see how she was doing. However, she overheard her daughter and son-in-law arguing about the matter.
Aunt Li was heartbroken and worried, so she quietly returned home.
Now that Zhao Huanhuan has a boyfriend, she brought him home to meet her parents first. They can tell that this child is sensible. And look at the boyfriend she chose. He is tall, handsome, and most importantly, he has an upright gaze and a strong sense of justice. He is obviously a good young man, especially since he is a soldier. This girl from the Zhao family is truly blessed in this life.
