Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

Xu Wanning pretended to cough twice awkwardly and changed the subject. Fortunately, the children did not continue to discuss this issue in depth.

In the evening, Lin's mother came back with some incense in her hand.

"Tomorrow morning, let's go and pay our respects. When we get back at noon, I'll go hang out with the people I know. The day after tomorrow morning, we'll set off back to Beijing."

Xu Wanning was a little surprised when she heard this: "Mom, didn't we say that we would stay in the village for about five days and just return to Beijing before New Year's Eve?"

If yesterday is counted as part of the journey, today and tomorrow will only be two days. Isn’t it a bit too hasty to travel for such a long time?

"There's nothing to do in the village anyway, so you should go back to Beijing as soon as possible so you can spend more time with your parents. Do you want to eat something?"

Xu Wanning and Lin Quan both shook their heads: "We ate too much at noon, so we're not hungry now."

"Okay, let's talk about it when we're hungry."

That night, Xu Wanning was sleeping in a daze and felt Lin's mother tossing and turning in bed.

Her movement was not loud, but it still made Xu Wanning a little worried.

Xu Wanning glanced at Lin Quan and the children, and saw that they were all sleeping soundly and showed no signs of waking up for the time being. Then she asked Lin's mother in a low voice, "Mom, are you worried about something? When you came back from Aunt Zhang's house in the evening, I felt that you were not in a good mood. What happened?"

Mother Lin smiled bitterly: "Otherwise it would be you, always so perceptive."

She sighed softly, "It's not a big deal, but it's just too annoying. I was planning to give red envelopes to your Jianjun's children this afternoon, but when I was on my way, I ran into a few old sisters I knew, so we made an appointment to go to Zhang's house together."

"After I got there, I didn't mention giving red envelopes. I just sat down and chatted for a while. In just a short while, several people wanted to introduce a date to Quan Quan."

"Introduce a girl to Quanquan? An aunt from our village?"

Mother Lin made a "hmm" sound from her nose.

"Aning, it's not that mom is a snob and looks down on the young men in our village, it's really...ah!"

Lin's mother didn't say it explicitly, but Xu Wanning could understand what she meant.

The Lin family has now settled in Beijing.

Let’s not talk about how much Xu Wanning and Lin An have achieved so far, and just talk about Lin Quan.

Although Lin Quan's school is not as good as Huaqing University, it is also one of the best universities in Beijing.

She was also a candidate for the first college entrance examination after its resumption. Needless to say, the value of this identity is very high.

When she graduated, the school originally arranged a job for Lin Quan as a teacher in a primary school.

But Lin Quan refused.

Firstly, the Good Samaritans charity cannot do without her now, and Lin Quan does not want to leave the charity.

Secondly, Lin Quan thought that her personality was not suitable for teaching children. If she were asked to teach and educate, she would be worried about misleading the students.

So Lin Quan refused the job arranged by the school and continued to stay at the Good Samaritans Charity.

But this does not mean that Lin Quan’s career limit is the Good Samaritan Charity. With her education and work experience, it would be no problem for her to change to a better job.

Of course, the premise is that given the current national conditions, there is a job available that is better than a charity organization.

Many of the young people in the village have not even finished elementary school.

Although they were not completely illiterate, they were certainly not very well educated. Asking Lin Quan to communicate with them was like playing the lute to a cow.

Sometimes, two people’s souls are not on the same wavelength, and it is extremely difficult for them to get along with each other.

Another thing is the economic aspect on a practical level.

No matter how wealthy a family is in the village, they can only save about 1,800 yuan a year at most.

Lin Quan currently earns more than 200 yuan a month, not to mention that she owns two houses.

Those are two houses in Beijing!

Almost every household in the village has several children, so no matter which one Lin Quan chooses, she will be marrying down.

Therefore, Lin's mother certainly did not look favorably upon this so-called "marriage".

Since Dai Wei's accident, Lin Quan has also visited several families. The one who impressed Lin's mother the most was Ma Likai.

Although she had never met Ma Likai in person, the harm that Ma Likai brought to Lin Quan was indeed indelible.

So much so that when Lin Quan mentions finding a partner now, she firmly refuses.

As a mother, Lin's mother only hopes that Lin Quan lives a good life. As for whether she is married or not, it is not important.

The purpose of getting married is to have children and then find someone to spend the rest of your life with.

Lin Quan already has children, a boy and a girl.

As for finding someone to spend your life with?

Lin Quan has her own job. Even in Beijing, she is a high-income earner. In a sense, she doesn't need anyone to take care of her.

Maybe, if she meets someone like Ma Likai again, she will need to use her own money to subsidize him or even his family.

If getting married is just to live a life like this, Lin's mother would rather Lin Quan remain single so that at least she doesn't have to suffer from anyone's bullying.

"I have clearly rejected them and told them that Lin Quan is not looking for a partner at the moment. But they seemed not to understand my rejection and kept talking to themselves about how good the partner they found for Lin Quan is."

"Aning, you know my personality. I'm not good at arguing with people. I'm also afraid that if we really start a quarrel, I won't have a peaceful life when I want to go back to the village. But I can't push Quanquan into the fire pit. So we might as well go back to Beijing the day after tomorrow morning, so that out of sight, out of mind."

It's impossible to know that after they return to Beijing, those people will rush to Beijing to find a partner for Lin Quan, right?

"Then listen to mom. After we finish worshipping tomorrow, we will return to Beijing the day after tomorrow. However, it's not easy to buy train tickets now that the New Year is approaching. I will call my third brother tomorrow and ask him to buy some train tickets for me. We will leave when he buys them."

"As for your worries, it doesn't matter. I'm here to support you. If they really want to introduce someone to Quanquan, they have to get past me first."

"This is the only way." Mother Lin sighed heavily.

She began to regret her decision to bring Lin Quan back with her.

Xu Wanning reached under the quilt and gently squeezed Lin's mother's hand, "Mom, don't worry about these things. Go to bed early. We still have to go up the mountain early tomorrow morning."

The next day, Lin's mother got up at daybreak.

There are still some leftovers from the dinner we hosted for everyone yesterday. Heilongjiang Province has a natural refrigerator in winter, so we don’t have to worry about the food going bad.

Mother Lin took three large and four small portions, heated them on the stove, and then called everyone to get up one by one.
