Nan's mother was watching the two's actions with sudden enlightenment. Her son, apart from giving a few words of advice to Qiaoqiao, showed little concern for her as a mother. But now he could say these things to Yingxue. Nan's mother thought of what Yingxue's parents had said to them before, and her mind became active.
"Xue'er, are you dating someone now?" Nan's mother thought about it and asked. Mayor Ying and his wife both said that Ying Xue didn't have a partner, but who could say for sure about young people's affairs? It would be better to ask clearly, so that the elders wouldn't be happy in vain.
As soon as Nan's mother said this, Nan Zhou, who was originally going to help in the kitchen, did not leave. He sat beside her and listened with his ears perked up. Ying Xue's face did turn red. She thought about it and frowned slightly when she thought of Cai Ziqiang, then relaxed. They were not together. Cai Ziqiang wanted to see his family but never thought of telling her publicly. Even if he confessed to her in private, he also made it clear in advance that his work was unstable now. Even if they were together, he still hoped that Ying Xue would keep it a secret from her colleagues for the time being.
This was also the reason why Ying Xue did not agree to his request at that time. In Ying Xue's mind, if she liked someone, she should be open and honest. Even if her job was unstable, it was not a reason to hide it from others. Even if she did not want to bring him home to meet her parents for the time being, she never thought of hiding it from her parents.
After thinking a lot, Ying Xue said, "I had a crush on a male colleague at work before, but later I felt that it was not suitable, so I don't have a partner now."
Ying Xue did not hide anything and spoke frankly.
"That's great, Xue'er. You also know what your parents and Aunt Ji are thinking. Qiaoqiao is getting married now, and my two sons are not young anymore. Do you want to..." Nan's mother was a little disappointed when she heard the first half of Ying Xue's words, but she cheered up again when she heard the second half. She just said halfway, and before the little girl could say no, Nan's mother continued.
"You can try to get along with each other. If it doesn't work out in the end, Auntie won't force it. Our two families know each other well. Any problem can be easily solved in Shanghai. Look at my two sons, they are both good-looking and capable. If you think Nanzhou is too far to work, Nanbo is in Shanghai, you..."
Nan's mother was just halfway through her words when she was interrupted by Nan Zhou's faint voice.
"I'm going to get a promotion, and my job can be transferred..." If Nanzhou had no requirements for the work location before, then this time he has one. Nanzhou is thinking that after returning to the army and waiting for the promotion documents to come down, he will have to apply for a transfer to Shanghai...
Ying Xue's face flushed when she heard this. What did Nanzhou mean? Was it what she understood? Did that mean... Ying Xue pondered in her heart, and a sweet feeling rose in her heart.
"Puff!" Nanqiao couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of water
"Why are you so careless? Be careful not to choke." Sheng Yanchuan, who had been sitting next to Nanqiao, quickly took the cup from Nanqiao's hand and wiped the water off her face with his hands.
Nanqiao did not resist and let Sheng Yanchuan wipe her
"Sorry, I choked a little," Nanqiao said embarrassedly, the smile on his face did not diminish at all. It was the first time he heard his elder brother speak in such a resentful tone.
Nanzhou looked at Nanqiao unhappily, but her sister couldn't say anything, so she turned to Sheng Yanchuan who was wiping Nanqiao's water.
"Wipe her clean, she's so grown up and still sprays water all over her face"
Sheng Yanchuan knew Nanzhou's embarrassment, so he didn't say anything. He smiled at Nanzhou and continued to wipe Nanqiao's
Having hit a snag, Nanzhou felt bored. He lowered his head and poked the floor tiles with the small wooden stick in his hand, with no intention of leaving.
"Didn't you say you would be back at the army this afternoon? Why haven't you packed your things yet?" Nan's mother wanted to ask Ying Xue alone, but Nan Zhou, who was always restless, just sat there quietly without moving.
"I'll go with you guys tomorrow." Nanzhou responded after hearing Nan's mother's words and continued poking the floor tiles.
"That's fine, then go help in the kitchen, don't get in the way here." Nan's mother started to chase people away. Nanzhou was very resentful. He looked around and saw that no one wanted to stay, so he got up and went to the kitchen. But before leaving, he also pulled Sheng Yanchuan away...
Sheng Yanchuan: ....Just go ahead, why are you pulling me along?
When Nan Zhou left, Nan's mother said to Ying Xue earnestly, "Xue'er, you can sense what Nan Zhou is thinking. Over the years, besides him, Qiao Qiao, you are the only person of the opposite sex around him. This boy is very dull and can't express what he is thinking. If you have any thoughts, just nod to your auntie and I will take care of that boy for you. I promise you that this is the only time you take the initiative. I will make sure that boy stays around you in the future."
Ying Xue listened to Nan Zhou's mother's words, feeling a little hesitant but also very excited. She looked towards the kitchen. Nan Zhou had a very superior appearance, and his years of military life had added a bit of wildness to his elegant temperament.
Ying Xue actually liked Nan Zhou. At least she knew that Nan Zhou and Nan Bo had different positions in her heart. It was just that the fight scene of Nan Zhou when she was a child left a deep impression on her young mind....
But this time when I saw him, everything seemed different...
Thinking of this, Nanzhou seemed to notice the girl's gaze. He looked up and happened to meet Yingxue's eyes. Nanzhou raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at Yingxue.
Ying Xue seemed to be burned by that smile. She instantly retracted her gaze and looked at Nan's mother with a firm gaze. She hummed softly.
The voice was very soft, but Nan's mother and the others heard it clearly.
Nanqiao happily held Ying Xue's hand and said, "That's great. You will be my sister-in-law in the future. We will be a real family. Nian Nian, please consider my second brother."
When Nan's mother heard what Nan Qiao said, she looked at Chen Nian. She didn't expect that there was something going on between Chen Nian and her second son...but seeing Chen Nian's shy look, she probably had some clues.
