Chapter 192 Qin Jingru Comes to 49 Cities
Jia Zhang was sitting on a chair in the main hall, sewing a shoe sole with her hands, her brows furrowed, and her eyes occasionally cast towards the busy Qin Huairu. After a long while, she finally couldn't help but ask:
"Huai Ru, what's going on with the matter I told you to write a letter to Jing Ru and ask her to come to Siheyuan? Why hasn't she come yet?"
Qin Huairu paused, and she looked back at Jia Zhang, with a hint of hesitation in her eyes. Although she had agreed to this matter before, she had never taken it seriously, after all, she had her own little thoughts in mind.
She was afraid that after introducing Qin Jingru to Xu Damao, her relationship with him would be severed, and she would no longer be able to take advantage of him as before.
Seeing that Qin Huairu did not answer immediately, Jia Zhang narrowed her eyes slightly and began to look at Qin Huairu carefully. She seemed to see Qin Huairu's hesitation, so she said: "Huairu, what's wrong with you? Are you reluctant to introduce your sister to Xu Damao and want to remarry yourself?"
When Qin Huairu heard this, her face immediately turned red. She quickly denied it, "Mom, what are you thinking? How could I be that kind of person? Why would I think that?"
Seeing Qin Huairu's panic, Jia Zhang became more certain of her guess. She squinted her eyes at Qin Huairu and said coldly, "If that's not what you mean, then hurry up and bring your sister here and introduce her to Xu Damao. If it's too late, we won't get any benefit."
Qin Huairu was somewhat helpless after hearing what Jia Zhang said. She knew that Jia Zhang was doing this for the good of the family, but she also had her own plans. However, since Jia Zhang had said so, she could only agree.
So she nodded and said, "Okay, Mom, I will go back to the countryside tomorrow and bring my sister with me."
......
The next morning, Qin Huairu got up early, packed up, and set out on the road back to the countryside. She picked up Qin Jingru and headed to Sijiu City.
Along the way, Qin Huairu solemnly warned Qin Jingru: "Jingru, although Xu Damao is a projectionist and has a good job, he is a second marriage. Otherwise, you would have no chance. You must seize this opportunity, do you hear me?"
Qin Jingru listened to her sister's words, and a little dissatisfaction appeared on her face. She pouted and muttered softly: "That's also a second marriage. I'm a first marriage. I have to find a better one anyway."
Qin Huairu frowned when she heard Qin Jingru's muttering, glared at her, and said unhappily: "What are you talking about? Now that such a good opportunity is in front of you, don't be picky. Besides, Xu Damao's conditions are not bad. If you marry him, your life will definitely be better in the future."
Seeing that her sister was a little angry, Qin Jingru quickly restrained her dissatisfied expression, put on a well-behaved look, and said: "Sister, I know, I will seize this opportunity. Let's go quickly, I'm a little hungry." As she said that, she pulled Qin Huairu's hand, urging her to walk quickly, for fear of missing the bus and waiting to walk back.
After several hours of bumpy ride, the two finally arrived at Sijiu City. Qin Huairu took Qin Jingru into the gate of Jia's house.
As soon as Qin Jingru saw Jia Zhang, she shouted enthusiastically, "Auntie, I'm here! These are the dishes my father asked you to bring, please don't reject them." As she spoke, she handed over the basket in her hand.
Seeing Qin Jingru so sensible, Jia Zhang smiled with satisfaction. She took the basket, narrowed her eyes, raised the corners of her mouth, showing a few teeth, and greeted her warmly:
"Jingru, you're here. Come and sit down. We'll have dinner soon. You look so tired after the journey. Come and drink some water and take a rest." As she said that, she turned and walked to the table, picked up the kettle and cup, quickly poured a glass of water, and handed it to Qin Jingru.
Qin Huairu stood aside, watching Jia Zhangshi's enthusiasm for Qin Jingru, and felt relieved, with a gratified smile on her face. She knew that it was the right decision to bring Qin Jingru here this time, at least now, Jia Zhangshi had a good impression of Qin Jingru.
Qin Jingru drank some water and felt much better. She remembered the purpose of her visit and asked, "Auntie, what kind of person is Xu Damao? Can you tell me about him?"
Jia Zhang put down the kettle and sat opposite Qin Jingru with a serious expression on her face. She objectively told Qin Jingru about Xu Damao's situation, including his work, personality, and the reason for his divorce.
Speaking of divorce, Jia Zhang sighed softly and pushed all the responsibility onto Lou Xiao'e, saying, "Actually, Damao is a good kid, but he's unlucky to marry a wife who doesn't know how to cherish her. Now that they're divorced, it's not easy for him to raise the child alone. If you can get along with him, you can just wait to enjoy your life."
Qin Jingru listened to Jia Zhang's words and gradually had a better impression of Xu Damao. She felt that although this man was divorced, it was not a big problem. So she asked, "Then, madam, when can I meet someone?"
Jia Zhang looked at Qin Jingru's expectant eyes and had already made a plan in mind. She smiled and said, "You stay here first. We can't rush this matter. Let your sister talk to Xu Damao first to see how to make the best arrangements."
When Qin Jingru heard this, she immediately looked at Qin Huairu, her eyes full of expectation. She said directly: "Sister, then please arrange it for me as soon as possible."
Qin Huairu looked at Qin Jingru's anxious expression and understood her thoughts. She nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I'll ask for you when Xu Damao gets off work tonight. Don't worry."
