Chapter 231 The Inquiry Guy Has Arrived

"Auntie, have you eaten?" Yao Shula looked at the empty rice bowl with a little embarrassment.

Aunt Yao nodded quickly.

"You've already eaten! Auntie will help you clean up. Shuxin and Shuli, go read your books!" Aunt Yao said, and started clearing the table for Yao Shula.

Yao Shuxin and Yao Shuli both looked at Yao Shula...

“Go ahead! My aunt and I can handle things ourselves! Shuli, get my aunt a glass of water!” Yao Shula quickly said.

Soon, Yao Shuli brought over a cup of hot water.

Aunt Yao was quick and efficient, and soon helped Yao Shula clean up the kitchen.

After drying her hands, Yao Shula placed the cup of hot water into Aunt Yao's hands.

"Auntie, warm your hands!" Yao Shula said with a smile.

Aunt Yao quickly smiled and brought the glass of water over.

Little Tiantian was playing with a Luban lock that Uncle Shu had just made, just like before, next to Yao Shula.

"Auntie, is something the matter?" Yao Shula asked with a smile.

Aunt Yao nodded, took a sip of hot water, and then moved closer to Yao Shula.

"Shura, your aunt has something to ask you!" Aunt Yao lowered her voice.

Yao Shula quickly sat up straight.

"Auntie, please ask! I'll tell you everything I know!"

Little Tiantian, who was still diligently fiddling with the Luban lock, had already perked up his ears.

Aunt Yao took another sip of hot water before quietly asking Yao Shula.

"Shura, what do you think of Zhou Ping'an, the guy next door...?"

Yao Shula thought that Aunt Yao had something very important to say...

"Aunt, what do you want to do by asking this?" Yao Shula was startled.

Aunt Yao wouldn't be trying to be a matchmaker for someone's daughter, would she?

Aunt Yao put down her water glass and moved her small chair closer to Yao Shula.

"Well... I saw your cousin chatting and laughing with that Zhou Ping'an, so I came over to ask you. You're their neighbor, so you must know Zhou Ping'an better, right?" Aunt Yao asked in a low voice.

Yao Shula was stunned for a moment; her cousin Yamin and Zhou Pingan were chatting and laughing...

Oh, actually, my cousin Yamin is always cheerful and talkative with everyone, including Zhou Ping'an.

Both of them had a smiling face, no matter who they were...

"Auntie, are you talking about Cousin Yamin and Zhou Pingan? When Cousin was with me, she talked to Zhou Pingan, but it was just normal conversation!" Yao Shula asked again in a low voice.

Not only was Yao Shula a little surprised, but Xiao Tiantian, who was playing with the Luban lock next to her, also slowed down his movements.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Yao quickly explained what had happened to Yao Shula.

...

Aunt Yao bought pork ribs and cooked them for lunch today. Miao Yamin's class was the last one in the morning, and the first class in the afternoon was also hers.

She was thinking of just having a simple lunch at the school cafeteria.

It's getting cold, and she doesn't want to travel back and forth. Anyway, she has a single dormitory at school, so she can just eat something simple and go back to rest for a while.

As for the pork ribs cooked at home, she can eat them when she gets back tonight; her parents will save some for her anyway.

But Aunt Yao didn't think so!

The fragrant pork ribs are cooked, but it's no fun for her and the man to eat them alone!

Even if some could be saved for Miao Yamin to eat in the evening, it certainly wouldn't taste as good as what she ate at noon.

Without saying a word, Aunt Yao took a lunchbox, packed some food, wrapped it in several layers of cotton cloth, and delivered it to Miao Yamin.

When she arrived at the school, it was just as the students were getting out of school, so Aunt Yao quickly ran to the school cafeteria.

She spotted Miao Yamin holding the lunchbox at a glance, but at the same time she also noticed Zhou Ping'an standing next to Miao Yamin...

Afterwards, Aunt Yao watched as Miao Yamin took Zhou Ping'an to the school cafeteria for lunch, and the two of them chatted and laughed as they ate...

...

"Aunt, didn't you go up and ask?" Yao Shula quickly asked.

Aunt Yao slapped her thigh.

"No! How could I dare to ask! Ever since your cousin broke up with her ex, she's become... seemingly indifferent to everything."

Now that things are finally starting to look promising, I certainly wouldn't dare ask too many questions!

What if she goes on a tantrum again?

"I quickly hid to the side," Aunt Yao said hastily.

Yao Shula felt it was a bit of a pity.

"Where are the ribs? Didn't you send them either? What a great opportunity! Just think of it as delivering vegetables to your cousin. The more you do that, the more guilty you seem," Yao Shula said softly.

Aunt Yao is quite regretful now.

Why was I so cowardly back then!

I am Miao Yamin's mother, and I even came here specifically to bring her ribs. If I had brought the ribs over back then, I might have known even more!

Ugh, why was I such a coward back then?

She even secretly took the ribs home, and then couldn't eat or sleep. She thought about it and realized that Yao Shula and Miao Yamin were close, so Yao Shula must know something…

Who knew, Yao Shula didn't seem to know much about what had just happened either.

"Shula, you and Yamin are close, Yamin tells you everything, but hasn't she told you anything?" Aunt Yao looked at Yao Shula expectantly.

Yao Shula shook her head.

"Aunt, as you know, when my cousin comes to ask me, it's always about Shuli's studies or studying every day."

That's what she was talking about, but she didn't mention any of that to me at all.

However, I had heard before that Zhou Ping'an had visited his cousin Ya Min twice.

Zhou Ping'an's great-uncle's family has a distant cousin who is a sophomore at No. 1 High School. It seems that her cousin Ya Min helped her with her accommodation arrangements.

"Maybe it's just normal interaction!" Yao Shula laughed.

Aunt Yao was a little disappointed when she heard that.

I see...

Sigh, Zhou Ping'an thinks Biamin's previous boyfriend is much better. It would be great if something really happened between them!

"Shura, you and your cousin are close. Next time she comes, try to subtly ask her about it."

I won't rush her; it's good to get to know each other slowly.

And then there's..." Aunt Yao glanced at Xiao Tiantian, who was no longer assembling the Luban lock and was staring at her with big, black, grape-like eyes.

"Tian Tian, ​​it's time for school!" Yao Shula glanced at little Tian Tian.

Xiao Tiantian then packed up the Luban lock and reluctantly walked towards the main room.

"Brother Shuli, time for school!" Xiao Tiantian called out towards the main room.

...

Only Aunt Yao and Yao Shula remained in the kitchen, and Aunt Yao finally felt relieved and continued talking.

"Shura, what do you think of Zhou Ping'an? He seems like a good person! You're neighbors, so you must know him a bit more, right?"

Yao Shula nodded.

"Brother Zhou Ping'an is a really good person!"
