Qin Xueqiong smiled and said, "Then you can take a good look later, but I believe in Bingcheng's vision, he must be a good match."
The mother and daughter walked around the yard with their children in their arms for a few laps, with the sun shining warmly on their bodies. Tang Xiaorou also kept playing with the two children, but after a while, Qin Xueqiong urged her daughter to hurry over.
"Since Bingcheng and his girlfriend are inviting you to dinner, you should go over and see if there's anything you can do to help." Qin Xueqiong thought that they were Yao Bingcheng's last relatives and would definitely make Bingcheng proud. "Don't go empty-handed when you go later. Prepare some gifts."
Seeing her mother's nervous look, Tang Xiaorou couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, Mom. I'm ready. I'll go out early and buy gifts on the street first, and then go over. I've even prepared a red envelope for the first meeting, and I'll give it to Bingcheng's partner when the time comes."
Qin Xueqiong was no longer worried when she saw that her daughter was well prepared, but she couldn't let her daughter pay for it.
"Xiao Rou, all the expenses today are on me. You and Bing Cheng are peers, and I am Bing Cheng's elder. There is no reason for you to pay for this." He said and went to get the money.
Tang Xiaorou was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when she saw this.
"Mom, why are we still so clear about what we are doing?"
Qin Xueqiong was very persistent. After giving the money to her daughter, she also told her to go out early.
Tang Xiaorou couldn't persuade her mother, so she had to accept the money. She didn't stay any longer and went directly to buy gifts, and then went to Yao Bingcheng's house.
After entering the door, Yao Bingcheng came out to greet them warmly. Next to him was a pretty girl with two pigtails. At this moment, she was looking at Tang Xiaorou curiously.
Tang Xiaorou also took a closer look at that girl, but she just smiled and didn't say anything. It was Yao Bingcheng who called her happily and introduced her to Tang Xiaorou, "Sister, this is my girlfriend Guo Xintong." Then he looked at Guo Xintong and said, "Xintong, this is Tang Xiaorou's sister whom I have talked about."
"Hello."
Guo Xintong walked forward and greeted Tang Xiaorou somewhat embarrassedly.
Tang Xiaorou responded generously, "Hello, Xintong." While speaking, she handed all the things in her hand to Yao Bingcheng.
Guo Xintong glanced at those things calmly and found that they were all high-end gifts with beautiful packaging, so when she looked at Tang Xiaorou, there was a little more smile on her face.
After a few days of entering the house, Yao Bingcheng poured Tang Xiaorou a cup of tea, and then asked her to rest first while she and Guo Xintong went to prepare lunch.
"Bingcheng, I'll go to the kitchen to help too."
Yao Bingcheng hurriedly said: "Sister, you take a rest, Xintong and I can do it alone."
Guo Xintong also smiled and echoed: "Yes, Sister Xiaorou, you are a guest, how can I ask you for help? Just sit down and relax."
After hearing this, Tang Xiaorou no longer insisted and sat in the living room drinking tea slowly.
In the kitchen, Yao Bingcheng and Guo Xintong began to prepare the meal. Guo Xintong asked in a low voice: "Bingcheng, Sister Xiaorou's last name is Tang, and your last name is Yao. You two are cousins, right?"
Yao Bingcheng shook his head and said, "No, we are not even cousins. In fact, my sister and I have no blood relationship. We can be considered neighbors at most. But my sister is my grandmother and I's relative. When she left Qingshan Village, she took my grandmother and me with her. Unfortunately, my grandmother is no longer with us. My sister and her mother are my only relatives in the world."
Hearing this, Guo Xintong frowned. It turned out that Yao Bingcheng came from the local rural area. Tang Xiaorou who came today was not a formal sister at all, but she still had to cook for him here. Moreover, Tang Xiaorou looked very young, about the same age as Yao Bingcheng. The two were siblings who had no blood relationship at all. Could they really be simple siblings?
Thinking of this, Guo Xintong's face became even uglier.
Yao Bingcheng had no idea what Guo Xintong was thinking. When he saw her standing there after washing the vegetables, he kindly asked her to go out and have a rest. "Xintong, go and talk to me. I'll do the rest."
Guo Xintong didn't say anything polite, just nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go out first."
After Guo Xintong entered the living room, she saw Tang Xiaorou sitting there leisurely drinking tea. She was more relaxed than them when meeting guests. Guo Xintong's smile froze, but she still tried to force a smile and walked over, saying, "Sister, Bingcheng asked me to come over and talk to you."
"OK."
In fact, she also wanted to know more about Bingcheng's partner, so the two of them quickly started chatting. However, before they had talked for a while, Tang Xiaorou discovered that there was something wrong with Guo Xintong's attitude towards her. Even though the pretty girl opposite her had been smiling appropriately, there was a hint of annoyance in her eyes when she looked at her.
Tang Xiaorou couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw this.
"By the way, Xintong, I forgot to ask you, how did you and Bingcheng know each other?"
Guo Xintong raised her chin slightly and said, "I was born and raised in Beijing. My family lives here. Bingcheng and I are neighbors, so we naturally got to know each other."
Even though Guo Xintong tried her best to hold back, Tang Xiaorou still looked superior in her eyes. She had an even worse impression of Guo Xintong. She had originally come here today to have a good meal with Yao Bingcheng and his girlfriend, but Bingcheng's girlfriend was completely different from what she had imagined.
"I see. No wonder Bingcheng used to live on campus, but now he doesn't live on campus anymore and goes home every night."
Guo Xintong smiled and said, "There's nothing I can do. Bingcheng misses me so much when he doesn't see me for a day, so he goes home every day now."
Hearing this, Tang Xiaorou glanced at Guo Xintong for a second and continued to ask, "You look about the same age as Bingcheng, so you should still be in college. Which university are you in?"
Guo Xintong's face froze, and she said awkwardly, "I'm not in school anymore."
"So you graduated a long time ago. Where do you work now?"
Guo Xintong's face became uglier and uglier when she heard this. "I'm not working at the moment. I'm staying at home to help with the chores."
At the end, Guo Xintong stood up and said, "I'd better go to the kitchen to help. I don't want Bingcheng to be busy alone. I don't know what time we can have dinner."
Watching Guo Xintong walking away, Tang Xiaorou took out the red envelope she had prepared early in the morning and rewrapped it.
After a while, Yao Bingcheng brought out the dishes from the kitchen, looked at Tang Xiaorou and said with a smile: "Sister, the food will be ready soon, just wait a little longer."
Tang Xiaorou responded without saying anything more.
After the food was served, Guo Xintong brought out the last bowl of soup with a proper smile on her face, "Sister, come and try my and Bingcheng's cooking."
After the three of them sat down, they started to eat. Yao Bingcheng enthusiastically introduced Tang Xiaorou, "Sister, this braised fish is made by Xintong, you try it."
Tang Xiaorou tasted it and found it tasted ordinary, even unpalatable. The fishy smell was not even removed. But she still nodded and said, "It tastes okay."
Yao Bingcheng also tasted it and naturally tasted the fishy smell, so he quickly introduced other dishes to Tang Xiaorou.
Tang Xiaorou didn't come here to eat, so she put down her chopsticks after eating a little, handed over the rewrapped red envelope, and said, "This is a meeting gift."
Guo Xintong was totally surprised that she actually received a red envelope. She wanted to take it quickly, but she still glanced at Yao Bingcheng. When she saw him nod, she took the red envelope. When she faced Tang Xiaorou, her expression also improved a lot. "Thank you, sister."
