"Hey, Xiao Chen, where is Jingyi? Isn't she with you?" Wang Hui asked.
"I was a little hungry, so Jingyi cooked noodles for me in the kitchen," Xiao Chen said with a chuckle.
"So that's it. Then you sit here for a while. I'll go see Jingyi and Sister Zhang first. Please help me greet Xiao Chen," Wang Hui said. The two of them seemed to have reached an agreement and cooperated well. Pretty good.
"Xiao Chen, thank you for what happened today, otherwise we wouldn't know where to live," Aunt Zhang said with a smile.
"Haha, this is my duty. Jingyi and I are good friends. I can't just sit idly by when she is in trouble, so Aunt Zhang doesn't need to say anything like thank you to me. That would be too intrusive." Xiao Chen smiled, since he really didn't want the other party to say too many such things.
"You're right. If you say too many polite words, you'll be outspoken. Xiao Chen, Aunt Zhang wants to ask you something. Of course, if you don't want to answer, you don't have to answer. Aunt Zhang won't force you," Aunt Zhang I asked, ready to get to the point.
"Okay, as long as I know, I will answer truthfully," Xiao Chen nodded.
"Wang Hui's husband passed away for some reasons a few years ago, leaving behind a mother and daughter. Wang Hui was not in good health before, and the cost of hospitalization was quite high. Jingyi, the child, did not know how to eat in order to allow her mother to receive treatment. She has suffered so much, but she didn't say it. Every time she saw us, she greeted us with a smile, but I know she was suffering in her heart," Aunt Zhang said, her voice becoming deeper.
Xiao Chen did not speak, but listened attentively. After getting along for a period of time, he knew that Shen Jingyi had a very difficult life in the past.
"In order to raise enough money, Jingyi worked several jobs alone. Sometimes she was so tired that she didn't even have the energy to eat. This child is suffering so much that we can't stand it any longer. We want to help her, but she doesn't want to. She looks gentle on the outside, but is very strong on the inside," Aunt Zhang said seriously.
"I know this. Although the two of us haven't been together for long, I can feel her strength. Now the situation has improved, Aunt Wang's health has also improved, and Jingyi has also found a good job. Work, I believe the days will get better and better in the future," Xiao Chen said softly.
"Yeah, it's getting better and better now, and Wang Hui's body has basically recovered. It's all because of you. If Jingyi hadn't met you, I really don't know what the consequences would have been. Maybe Jingyi is still here Struggling in misery," Aunt Zhang said with emotion.
"Aunt Zhang, what do you want to say to me?"
Xiao Chen's expression gradually became serious. He knew that Aunt Zhang had said so much and there must be something she wanted to say to him sometime.
"Xiao Chen, what do you think of Jingyi/," Aunt Zhang asked.
"Jingyi is a very nice person, with a gentle and approachable personality. It's fun to be with her, and she is also very beautiful," Xiao Chen said truthfully.
"Then have you ever thought about being with Jingyi, or do you like Jingyi at all?"
Aunt Zhang's words made Xiao Chen fall into deep thought. He already understood what Aunt Zhang meant. She wanted to bring him and Shen Jingyi together. Xiao Chen really hadn't thought about this question seriously, so he couldn't answer it immediately.
"Haha, if you don't want to say it, Aunt Zhang won't ask. Just pretend it never happened." Aunt Zhang smiled. Looking at Xiao Chen's thoughtful look, she thought it would be better not to be too forceful.
"Aunt Zhang, I haven't thought about this matter carefully, so I couldn't answer you immediately just now," Xiao Chen said truthfully, "But since you asked about it today, I will tell you based on my true feelings."
Aunt Zhang was overjoyed. She hoped Xiao Chen would tell her what she wanted to hear, that she liked Shen Jingyi and wanted to be with Shen Jingyi.
"Jingyi is a good person. This is obvious to everyone. We have not been together for a long time, but we both have a certain understanding of each other. You asked me whether I like Jingyi and whether I like to be with Jingyi. My answer That's for sure," Xiao Chen said seriously.
"Whether I chat with her or do other things together, she makes me feel peaceful. I enjoy the process of being with her. But if you ask me if I have fallen in love with Jingyi and whether I want to marry Jingyi "It's hard for me to answer this, because the relationship between us has not developed to that point yet, maybe we will in the future," Xiao Chen said, speaking his true feelings.
Although Xiao Chen didn't definitely say that he fell in love or got married, he at least liked being with Shen Jingyi. Aunt Zhang was very satisfied with Xiao Chen's answer. From the bottom of her heart, she hoped that Xiao Chen and Shen Jingyi could get together in the end, but this requires It takes a certain amount of time to combine.
"Aunt Zhang understands. I'm just asking. I don't mean anything else. Aunt Zhang is a veteran and understands the thoughts of you young people, so neither Aunt Zhang nor your Aunt Wang will force you and let you develop freely." Aunt Zhang smiled and looked very happy.
"Well, free development is really good," Xiao Chen nodded.
He has not forgotten his identity. He likes this warm and ordinary life very much and enjoys the time with Shen Jingyi and his family. But this does not mean that he can let go of some things. There are some things that he must do. , and will also leave Dongyang City.
"Mom, try this to see how it tastes. Is it a little salty?" Shen Jingyi scooped some soup into a bowl and asked Wang Hui to taste it.
Wang Hui drank the soup and said: "It's not salty, it tastes pretty good. This noodle is already cooked. Turn off the heat, otherwise it will rot."
"Yes," Shen Jingyi responded softly, then poured the noodles in the pot into a large bowl and sprinkled some chopped green onion on top.
At this time, the chat between Aunt Zhang and Xiao Chen had just ended. Xiao Chen clearly expressed his thoughts, which immediately reassured Aunt Zhang. She knew that she had done everything she should do, and the rest was left to the two young people. Already.
"Xiao Chen, try it and see how it goes. If it doesn't taste good, don't force it," Shen Jingyi said softly, bringing the noodles to Xiao Chen.
"Haha, the taste is very good, and I can smell the aroma even before I eat it. I believe in your craftsmanship," Xiao Chen chuckled, and then started eating slowly.
Wang Hui and Aunt Zhang watched quietly from the side, with a smile on their faces. At this time, Shen Jingyi and Xiao Chen were like husband and wife. The wife made noodles for her husband to eat, and then the husband praised his wife for her good craftsmanship. The scene was very Warm.
"Wang Hui, I just asked Xiao Chen, and he told me his thoughts," Aunt Zhang said in a low voice.
"What did Xiao Chen say, right?" Wang Hui asked immediately, but was stopped by Aunt Zhang.
"Let's go outside and talk. Don't be a light bulb here, otherwise it will ruin this warm scene," Aunt Zhang said with a smile.
