Thinking of that scene, Ren Jianing didn’t even dare to imagine it.
"Cousin, do you have someone you like? If they’re still single, you can express your feelings, don’t keep dragging it out."
The longer you drag it out, the more likely something will change.
If she had expressed her feelings when they first met, would they be together now?
Instead of it becoming a regret.
A one-sided crush turning into a one-sided heartbreak.
Ren Jianing was suddenly stunned, she didn’t dare to go.
"Come on, let’s go shopping, the weather is starting to warm up."
At least it’s not like winter, when everyone wraps themselves into a ball, and yet doesn’t feel warm.
In the afternoon, Yun Xiaoxiao took the two children to Elder Wu’s place, and bought some things for him too.
"Haven’t seen your Zhao Boy in a long time?"
Yun Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "He’s been a bit busy lately. Once he’s free, he’ll come to accompany you for tea and chess."
Elder Wu knows that young people not only have to work but also earn money to support their families.
There’s bound to be pressure on them.
"The Capital City is going to hold a youth calligraphy competition. I plan to let Da Bao try it out."
"Elder Wu, isn’t Da Bao a bit young?"
"Not at all, he is very talented. I’m just letting you know, so you can take Da Bao to register and participate. It’s also a good chance for him to gain experience, as the more experience he gains, the calmer he will remain."
"Since you said so, if I disagree, it would be like me, as a mother, holding him back."
This matter was tentatively settled.
Letting Da Bao participate in the calligraphy competition is indeed an opportunity for him to gain experience.
This way, when facing a crowd, he won’t be so nervous that he can’t speak or ends up stammering.
After taking his leave, Yun Xiaoxiao went back on her own.
"Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law Yuemei has been touching her belly a lot recently, is she worried about getting pregnant?"
Getting pregnant really depends on luck.
Previously, Wang Yuemei had some malnutrition issues, which is one of the reasons she hadn’t conceived yet.
"These things with children should go with the flow."
Yun Xiaoxiao whispered to Fang Meiyun, "Have there been any men shopping at the store recently?"
Yun Xiaoxiao noticed Fang Meiyun had grown up suddenly into a young lady and looked quite attractive too, so she was worried she might get deceived.
"Yes, I heard they were buying for their significant other."
Yun Xiaoxiao couldn’t quite explain that some men have been coming to the shop frequently, buying small things, or asking for help in choosing and introducing items.
As soon as enlightenment comes, it can make one sensitive.
"Xiao Yun, how’s your study going?"
Fang Meiyun chattered away, saying there was a lot she didn’t understand since she just started school and hadn’t attended before. It was only after coming to the Capital City that she began learning to read with Da Bao and her sister-in-law.
"If you don’t understand, you can ask me, my mom is an accountant, and I know a bit."
It turned out Fang Meiyun really did have something to ask, so she asked Yun Xiaoxiao.
Although Yun Xiaoxiao hadn’t studied accounting, she had strong comprehension skills, had looked at financial reports, and understood a bit.
So she began explaining to Fang Meiyun.
Over in the kitchen, the off-duty Fang Chaoyang was helping out.
"Xiao Yun, if you don’t understand, you can ask the teacher, or you can ask me, too. Don’t pretend to understand when you don’t, as it will harm you, especially in studies. You can’t be careless in this."
Fang Meiyun nodded and agreed to this.
The weather was gradually getting warmer day by day.
Ding Aiguo finally encountered Yun Xiaoxiao again by chance.
"Yun Xiaoxiao, long time no see."
