Wen Ye closed the door and looked outside to make sure Zhang Jinfang wasn't paying attention, then she whispered to Xu Erlong: "That Granny Yang just now came to the house to be a matchmaker for my aunt."
"Being a matchmaker for my mother?" Xu Erlong was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
He had never thought about this issue at all, and when he heard it now, he was naturally quite surprised.
"Hey." Wen Ye stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him: "Look at how scared you are."
Xu Erlong rubbed his face and tried to relax: "This is indeed a bit scary."
He never thought that he would have a stepfather.
You know, if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather.
Maybe, if you have a stepfather, you will also have a stepmother.
Although he has grown up now and is no longer afraid of his stepfather, he really is not mentally prepared for this.
While he was thinking about what to do, Xiaoling sneaked over to him and said, "Second brother, please think of a solution quickly. I don't want to have a stepfather."
Her worries were stronger than Xu Erlong's.
Xu Erlong didn't consider this aspect, but Xiaoling simply couldn't accept it.
"Anyway, I never want a stepfather." Xiaoling said, "Second brother, you have to find a way to mess up this matter."
Zhang Jinfang stood at the door, listening to the two brothers and sisters muttering here, walked into the room, and said angrily: "Who said I want to find a stepfather for you? Even if you want a stepfather, I don't want to find one.
.”
"But just now, when Granny Yang came over, didn't she just tell you this?" Xiaoling stammered.
"She came to mention this matter, but I didn't agree." When Zhang Jinfang said this, her face turned as red as a monkey's butt.
Alas, at such a young age, it is really embarrassing for her children to discuss whether she can find a man in front of her.
"Oh, great." Xiaoling breathed a sigh of relief: "It's fine if you don't agree. I'm really afraid that if you agree, a stepfather will come into the house."
"Stop yelling here. Don't mention this matter again. You're already old. It's embarrassing for people to hear you." Zhang Jinfang knocked on her forehead.
"I won't mention it for sure," Xiaoling said.
It seems that this matter has just been revealed.
"Okay, I'm going to cook. This half day has delayed my cooking," Zhang Jinfang said.
Seeing her plump figure disappearing from the door, Xu Erlong suddenly realized that his mother was actually still young.
Before I knew it, half a year had passed since I left the Xu family.
In the past six months, their living standards have obviously improved by several levels. They have a good diet and adequate nutrition. Zhang Jinfang is no longer the dark, thin and old look.
In addition, there is no heavy farm work, and there is no scolding from Mrs. Xu on the side. Zhang Jinfang's mental state is very relaxed.
Her whole person looked much younger, especially her eyes, which were bright and swept away the previous decadence.
Therefore, it is normal for someone to come to propose marriage to her as a matchmaker.
After all, she is only in her thirties.
Xu Erlong suddenly felt a little guilty.
He was busy here and there all day long and cared too little about his mother's personal problems.
As a person who has lived a new life, he is not as simple as Xiaoling in thinking about problems.
Xiaoling's considerations are more from a personal perspective, fearing multiple stepfathers and fearing that her mother will treat her badly.
But deep down, Xu Erlong is an adult, so he naturally takes a much longer-term view when considering things.
He already has Wen Ye and will soon start his own little family.
Xiaoling, on the other hand, will grow up to be a big girl in a few years. She will also fall in love, get married, and form a small family of her own.
What should Zhang Jinfang do at that time?
After all, she is only in her thirties. Should she be left alone to live alone? She will spend her whole life surrounded by her children, worrying about their children's eating, drinking, and diarrhea, and then she will take care of her grandchildren and worry about their grandchildren's eating, drinking, and diarrhea.
?
Xu Erlong cannot be so selfish.
The young couple comes to keep company.
When people grow old, they need a companion.
There are people who care and there are people who accompany you.
Let’s talk, go shopping, and buy groceries together. In the future, if possible, do something you like, dance the baba dance, and travel around. This will make your life worthwhile.
After thinking about it, Xu Erlong took advantage of his past time to help in the kitchen and said to Zhang Jinfang: "Mom, don't take it to heart what Xiaoling said just now. I understand that she and I can't be so selfish, so if there is a suitable
People, you can think about it without worrying about what we think."
When Zhang Jinfang heard this, he was angry and funny. He raised the spatula in his hand and pretended to hit Xu Erlong: "You say it again? Didn't you just say that you are not allowed to mention this matter again? You still mention it? Do you want to be beaten?"
Xu Erlong rushed to the door, turned around, held the door frame, and said to Zhang Jinfang: "Mom, I am serious. If there is a suitable person, you can consider it. We will not hold you back."
"Also." Zhang Jinfang threw a garlic head over.
Xu Erlong reached out to take it and walked away with a smile.
Anyway, he was making his attitude clear first.
As for someone who actually introduces someone to Zhang Jinfang in the future, he will take care of it on behalf of his mother, and it is better to avoid mistakes than to make mistakes.

Xiong Yawei went home.
He has been busy for more than half a month, and now he can finally take a break.
The goods that need to be hauled have basically been finished. In this slow month of February, he can rest at home for a while and spend time with his wife and children.
On this trip home, he carried a lot of things in large and small bags.
There are new spring clothes from Shanghai, ham from Jinhua, and high-end wine-filled chocolates.
Every time he drove through a city, he wanted to prepare a copy for his family if there was something special or good.
I am happy with Bodu Xiaofang.
Just walking downstairs of the family courtyard, I saw Xiong Duoduo playing with a doll in the courtyard.
Xiong Yawei shouted: "Sister Duoduo, daddy is back. Let's see what delicious food daddy brings back for you."
Sister Duoduo looked up and was very happy to see her father.
She ran over with the doll in her arms. The little knots on her head were curled up and down, which was so cute.
Xiong Yawei happily picked her up and spun her around in circles a few times: "Do you miss Dad?"
"I want to." Duoduo replied crisply.
Xiong Yawei kissed her little face, and Duoduo's sister giggled and ran away: "Daddy's beard is irritating."
Xiong Yawei lifted something with one hand and held Duoduo sister firmly with the other hand and went home.
As soon as he came up the stairs of the family courtyard, he saw his good friend Wang Penghai coming out of his home.
"Is Yawei back?" Wang Penghai greeted him: "I just came to your house to wish you New Year greetings, and my sister-in-law said you were not at home. I was still thinking about coming back another day. In the end, you came back. What a coincidence."
Xiong Yawei smiled and said: "Yeah, what a coincidence. Now that you're here, don't leave in a hurry. Stay and have a few drinks. I even bought some Jinhua ham to try."
We have a good relationship with Wang Penghai. We learned to drive together at the beginning, and we feel a bit like brothers in the same discipline.
