Chapter 105: 105 I’m not without a boyfriend (second update)He Ximei thought the spicy smell from their home had caused neighborly discontent and had come to talk about it, speaking carefully, "Xiaofeng, maybe we should move the kitchen." Although the living room door was closed, the spicy odor lingered. Su Xiaofeng didn’t respond and stood with the courtyard door ajar, staring at Luo Yuzhu and the two others at the gate, her voice as chilling as bone, "Mom, what’s the matter?" Achoo.... Over the years, Luo Yuzhu hadn’t been cooking much herself in order to preserve her skin, so the sudden burst of spicy air caught her a few times. Hearing Xiaofeng’s words, she introduced them with a smile, "Grandma Zhao, this is Grandma Zhao’s grandson. Grandma Zhao lives just across the street, not far from here. Hearing you live alone in this yard, I brought Grandma Zhao over to get acquainted, so she can look after you from time to time." "You’ve always been in Lihua Village and aren’t familiar with the city here—how can you manage without some acquaintances around you?" "Right, I heard from Xiao Luo that you’re living here alone in a rented house. Girl, let me tell you, it’s not very peaceful around here. You must secure your doors well at night." Grandma Zhao had lost several front teeth, which made her speech somewhat unclear, but it didn’t affect her smile. "This is my grandson, Huzi." Grandma Zhao pulled him forward, pushing Zhao Hu into view, "See, this is Xiaofeng. Look carefully, and take good care of her when you see her around." Zhao Hu folded his arms and glanced over nonchalantly, not uttering a word. Luo Yuzhu approached Xiaofeng and whispered, "Xiaofeng, we’re all neighbors here, get to know each other. Shall we go inside to chat?" It’s true what they say: those raised in the village just don’t understand, coming to the doorstep so late in the evening and Xiaofeng doesn’t even invite them in for a chat. "Sorry, I’m not familiar with them," Xiaofeng knew all too well what Luo Yuzhu was up to, "Mom, let me make one thing clear, don’t meddle in my affairs from now on. If you insist on doing so, don’t blame me if we fall out." With that, she didn’t even glance at Luo Yuzhu’s expression but just closed the courtyard door, leaving Luo Yuzhu and the others outside. "Xiaofeng, you—." Look what that swindler has turned her into. Grandma Zhao was utterly confused, "Yuzhu, what does your daughter mean by this?" Such a strong personality; if she’s really brought into the family, would she be the granddaughter-in-law or the ancestor? "Auntie Zhao, Xiaofeng and I have been at odds recently, but it’ll be all right in a few days. Now you know the door, and you’ve seen the person, the rest is up to the kids now. I’ve already told you Xiaofeng’s situation on the way here, you’ll see." Considering the Zhao family’s decent financial situation, despite the oddity that Zhao Hu’s wives kept dying inexplicably, Luo Yuzhu was not wishing for any ill on Xiaofeng, just thinking of letting her get acquainted with him first. This way, Xiaofeng would have a benchmark in her heart and know what to expect for herself. "The child does look acceptable." Grandma Zhao was satisfied with Su Xiaofeng, "Born good-looking and seems capable of childbearing, but in the end, it all depends on the kids’ fate." Still, with such a bad temper, she needed to be interacted with more. "That’s exactly what I’m thinking." Luo Yuzhu put aside Xiaofeng’s earlier attitude, "So from now on, you two please take good care of Xiaofeng for me." ... Having returned home, Xiaofeng calmly proceeded to the living room, where He Ximei had already moved things into the kitchen, "How did it go? Was it the neighbor?" Xiaofeng sat down and started working, "No, it was my mom bringing people over for a visit." "Your mom knows we’re living here?" "I just happened to run into her this afternoon." "Then why didn’t you invite her in?" He Ximei checked outside; the courtyard door was closed. "Why should I let her in?" Xiaofeng’s voice was icy, "It’s not like she came for anything other than to set me up with someone. She really thinks too far ahead." "She’s your mom, after all—worrying about your marriage is normal." Su Xiaofeng chuckled inwardly, normal indeed—too normal. ... In the Sunshine Hotel at Eastern City, Wu Ershun had the kitchen serve a spicy fish head along with several other dishes. He boasted to Ye Cheng, "Bro Cheng, the food at my uncle’s hotel used to be so-so, but ever since they started using Su Xiaofeng’s chili sauce, the quality of their dishes has gone up a notch. Try it and see." After tasting a few bites, Ye Cheng acknowledged the taste was indeed good, "So?" "I’m planning to collaborate with Su Xiaofeng," Wu Ershun was excited, "Our county has a food factory that’s about to go under, and they’re looking for someone to take over. What do you think about me tipping Su Xiaofeng off about this?" It wasn’t just empty boasting, with Su Xiaofeng’s cooking skills, as long as someone helped introduce her to the market, there would definitely be demand. "Brother Cheng, what do you think about letting my eldest brother buy shares?" In this way, wouldn’t there be more possibilities between Eldest Brother and Su Xiaofeng? Ye Cheng glanced at him lightly, "I know about the food factory you mentioned. Such a small factory, are you shameless enough to offer them shares?" "That’s true." Wu Ershun sighed, "Brother Cheng, you don’t know, last time Su Xiaofeng brought that pickled radish for my brother, right? You have no idea, my brother loves it so much, he can finish three bowls of rice in one go, and it made our grandma and mom—" ecstatic. Crack, the chopsticks broke into three pieces. Wu Ershun’s eyelid twitched. Ye Cheng threw the chopsticks into the trash can, "What kind of chopsticks are these at your uncle’s place? Such poor quality." Wu Ershun silently took out another pair of chopsticks, tested them, and they didn’t break. He tested them again, still no break. He handed them to Ye Cheng, "Brother Cheng, use this pair, they’re sturdy." S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. It was truly bizarre, there was nothing wrong with these chopsticks. How did Brother Cheng’s chopsticks just spontaneously break into three pieces? Ye Cheng picked up the chopsticks again and spoke in a low voice, "In the future, don’t give your brother those pickled dishes anymore, especially the ones from Su Xiaofeng. Those things are not good for your brother’s health." "But my brother said they really whet his appetite, and these past few days, he looks a lot more spirited. I’m not sure if it’s the effect of the medicine prescribed by Master Liu, or Su Xiaofeng’s appetizer’s doing." It must be Master Liu’s medicine that’s having an effect. Eldest Brother has an appetite and wants to eat, and when he wants to eat, he would naturally want some side dishes. Yes, that’s it. So, I definitely have to listen to Brother Cheng. Brother Cheng is a doctor and he’s only thinking about Eldest Brother’s health. "Okay, I got it. I’ll make sure to tell Eldest Brother." Ye Cheng thought for a moment. This matter had to be communicated to Su Xiaofeng as well. Wu Yifan was his patient. He should ask her to refrain from preparing those messy foods for his patient in the future, as it could delay their treatment plan. Early morning, He Ximei and Su Peng took fifty bottles of chili sauce to the train station to sell. Xiaofeng prepared to go out and buy some vegetables, planning to bring them back on her way home. Not long after leaving the house and nearing the central city’s vegetable market, Granny Zhao popped out from some side street and naturally greeted Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, right? You’re going to buy vegetables? I’m heading there too, let’s go check it out together." Meanwhile, urging the big man behind her, "Huzi, what are you dawdling for? Show Xiaofeng the way. She’s new to this area, she doesn’t know where the vegetable market is." Zhao Hu, with his muscular build and eyes like a tiger, always looked ferocious. He stepped forward to grab Xiaofeng’s wrist, saying gruffly, "Come this way with me." Su Xiaofeng’s eyelid twitched. Before his shadow closed in, she nimbly retreated a few steps, "You lead the way." Zhao Hu glared at her fiercely. Granny Zhao was still smiling, "Don’t scare Xiaofeng." "Xiaofeng, my grandson might look fierce, but he’s actually a paper tiger—really timid at heart. It’s tough to say about him. His dad was a sent-down youth who later returned to the city. Although he sends money our way each year, it’s pretty clear he doesn’t want Huzi to go looking for him in the city." Xiaofeng knew a little about situations like these. It wasn’t rare for sent-down youths who had returned to the city to have married before, but there were few who would come back to acknowledge their relatives or their sons. "The money his dad sends isn’t insignificant; it’s enough for the three of us, grandmother and grandchild, to live on." Granny Zhao chuckled gently, "Huzi’s mom has her own job too, and I’m still healthy. Once you have your child, I can help you take care of it." From her words, it seemed that Granny Zhao wasn’t Zhao Hu’s biological grandmother but his maternal grandmother. Currently, it was just her living with Zhao Hu, his mother, and himself—a match that seemed downright suitable. The guy was the son of a sent-down youth, and though they didn’t allow him to return to the city, they still sent money. Moreover, it sounded like they didn’t mind that she had a child. Xiaofeng’s mouth twitched slightly, "Granny Zhao, the way you’re talking, it sounds like it should be easy for your grandson to find a wife. Why would he be interested in me?" With such good conditions, surely many girls would want to marry him. Granny Zhao sighed, "Huzi has a tough fate; ordinary women can’t handle him. Your mom told me about your horoscope, it’s exceptionally good." Is that even possible? Standing her ground, she pushed back her hair from her forehead, her voice resolute, "Granny Zhao, you just met me, so you might not understand me well. As for my mom, she hardly ever took care of me growing up, so she knows even less about what I want. Let me put it this way—I’m not without a boyfriend. It’s just that my boyfriend is from the big city. He’s gone back to the big city now, and who knows, he might come back to marry me any day, so—." She refused to believe that Luo Yuzhu would blatantly tell people she had been mistreated or that she had an unlucky son. So, you should understand what I’m saying.
