The Town’s Girl

Aunt Wang sat in her seat, speaking expressively, as if the matter had happened to her personally.

Listening to Aunt Wang's words, Yang Xiulian's expression gradually became anxious.

She really hadn't considered this matter much before; after all, Xiao Mo had only graduated for a little over a year, and it wouldn't be too late to find a partner and get married in another year or two.

But now, after hearing Aunt Wang's words, she couldn't sit still.

Because the few times her son had come back before, she had mentioned finding a partner, but her son seemed completely uninterested in the matter.

If it really dragged on until he was over 30, that would be terrible.

Thinking of this, she looked up at Aunt Wang.

"Aunt Wang, I know about this, but even if I'm anxious, I can't help!"

"How can you not help? I think Xiao Mo is handsome, tall, has a good job, and a decent income. It should be easy for him to find a girlfriend, but Xiao Mo might be too busy with work and doesn't have much of a social circle."

"I've heard that in places like workshops and factories, there aren't many young girls at all. And Xiao Mo is now a company leader, so he definitely wouldn't look down on the employees in his company."

"In that case, we need to help him. See if there are any suitable girls around us and introduce them to him."

Aunt Wang spoke patiently.

"Aunt Wang, I go to work every day and don't come into contact with anyone."

Yang Xiulian showed a bitter smile. She went to work in the town every day, and there were only a few people in her office. Where would she meet any girls?

"Just because you don't, doesn't mean I don't!"

At this point, Aunt Wang finally revealed her purpose for coming here.

"Aunt Wang, do you know any suitable girls?"

Yang Xiulian looked at Aunt Wang with surprise.

"Yes, it's the Wang family's girl from the neighboring town. She's two years older than your Chen Mo, tall, and very pretty. She's currently an office worker at a company, earning over ten thousand a month."

"A while ago, I went to their house to visit and heard them mention this matter, so I casually brought up your Xiao Mo's situation."

"The old Wang family was very satisfied when they heard about Xiao Mo. Look, this is a photo of that Wang family girl."

Aunt Wang said, taking out her phone, finding a photo, and handing it to Yang Xiulian to see.

Yang Xiulian leaned over and looked, nodding slightly.

"She's quite good. Her height and looks are not bad. So, what does that Wang family girl think?"

"You don't need to worry about that. What thoughts? They'll only get a result after they meet each other, right? We'll just provide them with an opportunity. Whether it works out or not is up to them. Isn't Xiao Mo coming back today? That Wang family girl is also coming back in the next few days, so they can meet and see if there's any chemistry. If it works out, they can try dating."

Aunt Wang put her phone back, a smile on her face.

"That's no problem. When Xiao Mo comes back, I'll tell him about this, and then I'll rely on you for the girl's side."

Yang Xiulian nodded, a hint of joy in her eyes.

But listening to Aunt Wang's description and looking at the photo of that Wang family girl, she was very satisfied.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of the girl's side. So, the matter is settled. Once the two children are back, we'll set a time. I should also go home and cook, so I won't bother you anymore."

Aunt Wang said, walking towards the outside.

"Thank you for your trouble, Aunt Wang."

Yang Xiulian got up and saw Aunt Wang to the door.

"No trouble at all. I'll be happy when I can drink your wedding wine someday."

Aunt Wang waved her hand and then walked outside.

"Oh, right, Aunt Wang, please send me that girl's photo later. I'll show it to Xiao Mo then."

Seeing Aunt Wang walking down the stairs, Yang Xiulian suddenly called out.

"Okay, I'll send it to you when I get back."

Listening to Aunt Wang's reply, Yang Xiulian closed the door with relief and walked back to the kitchen.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Jingrui, who had been busy in the kitchen, saw his wife walk back and asked curiously.

"Aunt Wang came over to introduce a partner to Xiao Mo."

"Which family's girl? Do we know her background?"

"From the neighboring town. I listened for a bit, and she's not bad. When Xiao Mo comes back, let them meet. I thought about it, if it works out, they can date for a year or two, and then they can get married. Then we won't have anything to worry about."

Yang Xiulian turned on the faucet and continued preparing the half-finished dishes.

For their generation, seeing their son finally establish a family and have children would be a complete and satisfying conclusion.

"Oh!"

Chen Jingrui nodded and said nothing more.

…………..

Beiming County Expressway Exit.

A commercial vehicle slowly drove out of the expressway exit.

"Let's go to the market first. I need to buy some things."

Chen Mo turned to look at Song Xia, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Okay, I need to buy some things too."

Song Xia nodded. When visiting her older sister, she certainly couldn't go empty-handed. Even if her older sister didn't care, her brother-in-law's family, even if they didn't say anything, would definitely look down on her a bit.

There was also the matter of etiquette.

After reaching an agreement, Chen Mo drove directly to the largest market in Beiming County.

After entering,

He didn't pick much, buying two sets of rice, flour, grains, and oil, plus some gift boxes, and had the market staff load them into the car.

As for why there were two sets, one was for Second Aunt's family, and the other was naturally for his older aunt's family.

As for his own family, he bought other gifts himself, and of course, he also brought back the gift boxes Wang Yang had given him.

The things Song Xia bought were more or less the same. In the villages and towns, giving these rice and flour items was the most practical and useful.

The two got back into the car.

Chen Mo started the vehicle and first dropped Song Xia off at Second Aunt's house.

Just as they arrived downstairs at the apartment building, they saw Second Aunt, Second Uncle, and also his older cousin, and older cousin's wife, all waiting at the unit entrance.

It seemed that

Song Xia had just notified them in advance.

The vehicle slowly parked, and Second Aunt's family gathered around.

"Second Aunt, Second Uncle……."

Chen Mo got out of the car, greeted each of them, then walked to the back of the car, opened the trunk, and took out the newly purchased gifts one by one.

"Little brother, I'll help."

His older cousin, Li Zhengqi, quickly stepped forward to help.

"Those are Song Xia's, a few of them are."

Chen Mo placed the gifts on the ground one by one and pointed out which ones were Song Xia's gifts.

The value of their gifts was similar, so there was no distinction of being more expensive; it was just a simple way to indicate that the gifts were not from one person.

"You two children, it's enough that you came, why buy gifts?"

Second Aunt looked at the two sets of gifts on the ground, already smiling so widely she couldn't close her mouth, and then casually nudged her husband beside her.

"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and carry them! Do you want Xiao Mo to carry them for you? And Song Xia's arms and legs are too small to carry them."

As she spoke, she also picked up two buckets of soybean oil.
