Even if he had nothing to do with it, he had at least propped up the previous owner of the place, and should have been widowed for a few years.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Uncle Liu said, ”Little Su, you're still young. Your aunt and I both think we should find someone to stay at home. If you don't mind, my distant relative has a nephew who is only twenty-three years old and once married.
”What about Uncle's meaning? If you think it's okay, we can be Red Niece and introduce him to you.” Don't you worry about that child, honest and honest Zhuang Han. The family has some land and has been doing some small business all these years. Even though it's not a big deal, but it's definitely not a problem to have at least some food and drinks. Having a daughter who's frail and sickly, no mother to take care of her, it's just too pitiful. ”
Uncle Liu's intention was to return the favor. He hoped to pair his nephew with Su Zhi so that both of them would be young and fertile.
Su Zhi hesitated. On one hand, she was too embarrassed to refuse the kind intentions of Aunt and Aunt Bai, and on the other hand, she didn't seem ready to accommodate a man to intrude into her life.
If she really had to choose a person, she wanted it to be...
Xiao Qian's figure appeared in her mind. Realizing that she had thought about something she shouldn't have, she quickly shook her head in fear and lowered her head in silence.
Aunt Bai thought she was shy, so she and Uncle Liu looked at each other and smiled. They patted her shoulder, then got up and said their goodbyes.
That night, Su Zhi was unable to sleep. She lay on her bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Considering her future path, she could not help but feel troubled.
To be honest, finding a man to rely on was not a bad thing. She was still young, so she couldn't just peacefully bring up these two children.
The children will leave, and when they are full, they will form their own families.
At that time, Su Zhi would become an old woman, a burden on anyone. She would be alone, a person with three illnesses and two pains with no one else.
She had the ability to raise a child, so what if she found a husband, what would happen to the two children?
If only he could find someone like Xiao Qian, who would spoil these two children.
Why, did he think of that person again?
Su Zhi patted her head and tried not to think about Xiao Qian.
How could she possibly think of a great general, a great figure with roots that were at the height of youth, a great figure that could make one's hands hot?
It was not until the next morning that she fell asleep.
A Jin tactfully helped her mother straighten the quilt and quietly got off the bed.
It didn't take long for Soybean Bun to wake up as well, waking Su Zhi up as well.
Su Zhi rubbed her throbbing temples and got up to help her child dress. When she did not see A Jin, she panicked and immediately got off the bed to find someone.
”Jin!”
A Jin, who was in the kitchen, heard the call. He quickly threw away the charcoal in his hand and headed out the door.
”What smell?”
Something seemed to be burning.
Su put on her shoes and quickly entered the kitchen. Seeing the black faced child, she tiptoed to pour water into the pot on the stove while hurriedly bending over to hand over the firewood.
”A Jin, what are you doing? Hurry, hurry! Go out and wash your face. Look at yourself!”
A Jin let out a sigh of frustration and said dejectedly, ”Mother, you worked hard yesterday. A Jin wanted to make breakfast for mother and sister. I didn't expect …”
Su Zhi was both touched and sad. She took out a handkerchief and wiped Jin's face, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. ”How old are you? You only want to cook.”
”Daddy is not here anymore. A Jin is the man in the family. This is what A Jin should do.”
Su Zhi trembled slightly, and when she thought back to what Aunt Bai had said last night, she could not help but sigh with emotion. Indeed, there should have been a man at home.
”Alright, go wash your face and help your little sister dress. These women will do it.”
”Oh.”
A Jin walked out of the kitchen gloomily. Su Zhi opened the window to let the suffocating smoke dissipate. He then changed the pot and boiled water to cook the noodles for the children to eat.
Su Zhi faced him and thought about it carefully. If she could have a complete family for her child, then she should have a man to work together and support each other.
However, to her, it was still a desire to have a pure love. The two of them didn't live together for the sake of the rice, oil, and salt; it was because the two of them loved each other that they became husband and wife.
Right now, she was too busy at home to find time to talk about relationships. If Uncle Liu's nephew was someone who could be relied on, she wouldn't reject him. She could calm down and try to get along with him. As for whether she could succeed or not, it all depended on fate.
After about an hour, a large bowl of sliced noodles was prepared. Su Zhi cooked some pickled vegetables and minced meat to make a piss before cooking.
She was happy to see the food the two of them were eating.
Because of what had happened yesterday, Su Zhi didn't dare to go out for a long time, fearing that her child would have another accident. He had someone bring a message to Elementary Scholar Li, saying that he would head over to the store later in the evening to make preparations.
When the sun was high in the sky, there was another knock on the door.
