The two mothers burst into laughter and said in unison,”What a coincidence!”
“Mom, do you know each other?” Tan Rou asked.
“I met her when I was renovating the house. She gave me a lot of advice. Auntie Shen was the one who picked out the chandelier in your room.”
Shen Jing said, “If I had known that it was a room for Rourou, I would have bought more things for you.”
Tan Rou thanked her. “Thank you, Auntie. The room is already looking gorgeous. There are also many things. There’s no need to add anything else.”
Shen Jing took Tan Rou’s hand and said gently, “If you need anything, just let me know. I’ll help your mother pick out some of the things for you.”
“It’s alright. I can pick them out for my daughter.” Mother Tao said with a smile.
“It’s fine, it’s fine.” Shen Jing said, “We’re good friends. Your daughter is my daughter too!”
The two of them fought to make Tan Rou their daughter. Tan Rou looked embarra.s.sed. There were so many people here, and she felt shy.
“Mom, let’s not disturb Auntie Shen.” Tan Rou held her mother’s hand.”Didn’t you say you wanted to walk around the neighborhood?”
“Arc you guys strolling around the neighborhood?” Shen Jing suddenly asked. “Let’s go together.”
“Madam, you haven’t eaten anything yet.” The nanny came out from behind and reminded Shen Jing softly.
“Auntie, haven’t you eaten yet?” Tan Rou asked. She looked at Zhuang Liu. Zhuang Liu was here at this time, so he was probably here to have dinner too.
Shen Jing wanted to go on a walk with Tan Rou and the others. “It doesn’t matter. We can eat anytime.”
Tan Rou felt that she couldn’t disturb them from eating, so she said, “Auntie, you guys should go and eat first. We’re already neighbors now. We’ll have plenty of opportunities to go out together in the future.”
“Neighbors?” Shen Jing seemed to have suddenly understood something. “That’s right. We’ll be neighbors in the future. We’ll be able to see each other often in the future.”
It has been said it would be easier for those who have a balcony to reach the moon. Since they were neighbors with Tan Rou’s family, they could interact more in the future. Then, would Tan Rou be able to become their daughter-in-law soon?
Thinking of this, Shen Jing decided to visit Tan Rou’s house more often. She would have to help her son!
Zhuang Liu said goodbye to Tan Rou reluctantly. He really wanted to go on a walk with Tan Rou, but now was not the best time. Tan Rou’s mother and grandmother were with her. If he went, he would be ignored by them. Even if he was not ignored, his presence would affect the them.
“I didn’t expect Shen Jing’s son to be Xiao Zhuang.When we were chatting earlier, Shen Jing mentioned her son.” Mrs. Tao said happily.
“She said that her son is outstanding. I said that my daughter is also very outstanding. At that time, I thought that if it weren’t for Xiao Zhuang, I might have become in-laws with her.”
Tan Rou didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Mom, what are you thinking about? I’m still a student. I wouldn’t want to be thinking about these things now.”
“I know. I’m just helping you look for a future partner. You would still be the one to make the final option.”
Grandma Tao had been thinking about the mother and son from just now. She seemed to have seen them in the Capital, but she could not remember who they were. She was old and did not have a good memory.
“Then why is the child in a wheelchair? He’s so young and handsome. Why is he in a wheelchair?” Grandma Tao said regretfully.
“He was poisoned,” Tan Rou explained.
“What a pitiful child.” Grandma Tao pitied the young man.
Tan Rou did not intend to explain clearly. Although she believed that her grandmother would not say anything, it was better for fewer people to know that Zhuang Liu was about to recover.
On the other hand, Zhuang Liu was absent-minded while eating.
Shen Jing tapped on the table, “Are you thinking about Rourou?”
Zhuang Liu came back to his senses. “I shouldn’t be disturbing them now.”
“You child, Xiao Rou has already become your neighbor. Don’t you know how to seize the opportunity?” Shen Jing reminded him.
Zhuang Liu suddenly remembered that Tan Rou also lived here. If he moved here too, wouldn’t he be able to see Tan Rou every day?
He had to go to work in the morning, and Tan Rou had to go to school. When he got off work at night, Tan Rou would also be done with her cla.s.ses. In the past, since they weren’t heading in the same direction, he couldn’t offer to give her a ride home. Now that they were headed to the same place, they would be able to travel back and forth together.
“I understand.” Zhuang Liu smiled. “I’ll give Xiao Rou a ride to school this coming Monday..”
