Rebirth: My Mother is a Virgin Mary

Since her rebirth, there are rarely so many people dining at home, so Ms. Lin had to buy a new set of tableware to make up for the shortage.

I took a glass of water and sat at the table, rarely picking up my chopsticks.

Aunt Wei He advised me: "Lin Lin, why don't you eat? It takes a lot of energy to cook such a large table of dishes. How can you not eat? Come on!" As she said that, she picked up a large portion of mixed vegetables for me with chopsticks, "Look how thin you are!"

I still didn't move and took a sip of water: "Aunt Wei He rarely cooks at home, right?"

"Well, his dad and I are so busy that we don't have time to cook. Usually, it's our aunt who cooks. But our Lin Lin's cooking skills are beyond the reach of our aunt! How can Lin Lin, such a small person, know so much! Whoever marries Lin Lin in the future will be blessed!" As she said this, she elbowed Chen Jingxing who was eating heartily next to her. Chen Jingxing raised his head while biting a prawn and said, "Huh?"

Aunt Wei He gave him a look, and he finally realized, "Cheng Lin's dishes are the best I've ever eaten! I really want to eat them every day in the future!"

"Do you think my sister is a nanny? And you eat it every day? You're dreaming!" Cheng Xinyuan didn't look happy at all.

"That's not what I meant..." Chen Jingxing explained hurriedly.

"Tsk..." Cheng Xinyuan didn't want to listen at all.

Wei He could clearly feel that the boys across from them did not welcome and did not like them. Cheng Lin, as a sister, was able to teach these brothers to be so loyal to her. She was really capable. She thought so, and then looked at her son, imagining how she would be "henpecked" after they got married. She became more satisfied with Cheng Lin. Well, their Chen family needed such a daughter-in-law to keep things in order.

I did not stop Cheng Xinyuan from showing a somewhat impolite attitude, and neither did Ms. Lin. If it were in the past, she would have scolded Cheng Xinyuan long ago. It seems that she knew what was going on.

"Aunt Wei He rarely cooks, so she naturally doesn't know that people who cook will lose their appetite after inhaling so much fumes. I cook for my own happiness and for the happiness of the people I care about..."

Before I could finish my words, Aunt Wei He interrupted me with a look of surprise: "Oh! Someone you care about? Did Lin Lin know we were coming?"

I frowned in displeasure. I hate interruptions. "I haven't finished talking yet. What is Aunt Wei He thinking about?"

"First of all, I didn't know you were coming, so don't drag you into this; secondly, the protagonist of this meal was originally my younger brother, and this meal was also for him. We started preparing early in the morning, and you have stolen his limelight by coming uninvited. To be honest, I am not happy. Finally, I am a good cook, but I don't cook easily because my mom and brother are reluctant to let me. You are just lucky to have come, so don't think you are so important. I won't cook specially for you." These words were a bit heavy, but if they didn't say it more seriously, who knows what this mother and son would be thinking.

Aunt Wei He was stunned when she heard this. Chen Jingxing also put down his chopsticks and looked at me with guilt on his face.

Aunt Wei He smiled awkwardly: "Lin Lin, are you... not welcoming us?"

"You're not unwelcome, but you have to be careful about the situation. I don't like being ordered around." I still had a calm expression and no emotion could be seen.

Seeing that the atmosphere was very tense, Ms. Lin tried to persuade them, "Talking is fine, but don't interrupt the meal. Come on, Jingxing, pick up your chopsticks."

"Wei He, Lin Lin is a straightforward person with no ill intentions. Don't take it to heart." Ms. Lin picked up a lotus root and put it into Aunt Wei He's bowl. "As for children's affairs, just let them take their own course. Don't worry so much about them, ah~"

“But…” Aunt Wei He felt a little aggrieved.

"I know what you're thinking, and I believe you really like Lin Lin, but some things can't be done just by thinking about them. I can also see that Jing Xing likes Lin Lin, but emotional matters are always two-way. As long as Lin Lin disagrees, no one can do anything to her. My daughter is a person, not an object. She has her own thoughts and her own judgments. This is not our time, when most people rely on blind dates and get married just for the sake of getting married after having met a few times, let alone the era of 'parents' orders and matchmaker's words'. I won't say a word about what she wants to do and who she wants to be with. Even if it's pursuit, it's not like that. We've all been through it, and you understand these principles even if I don't say them... Wei He, you're too impatient."

"Out of courtesy, I brought Lin Lin to meet you. Actually, Lin Lin had refused before, but she was sensible and didn't want to offend Sister Re. She thought it was okay to meet you, but she didn't want to cause misunderstandings. This is my fault. Lin Lin expressed her refusal from the beginning. It was because I cared too much about face and didn't know how to refuse. I was afraid of hurting the relationship, so you had further thoughts. Wei He, I recognize you as a person, and I also like to make friends with you. It doesn't matter what friends say. But... from the time you came to our house until now, you can't stop talking about Lin Lin. You look like you won't stop until today... Today is only the second time the two children have met. Do you think I, as a mother, can my heart not be beating fast? I also like Jing Xing, this child, he is excellent and sensible, but I only like him from the perspective of an elder for a younger generation, without mixing in other things. Whether he has the fate to be my son-in-law depends on his attitude in the future."

"Besides, the two children are still young. Their combined ages are still a long way from ours. It's really a bit too hasty to rush into it now. Linlin hasn't graduated from college yet, and I don't want her to be held back by love and marriage. The same goes for Jingxing. She's so young, and her bright future doesn't need to be hindered by love affairs. Although a good relationship will promote mutual progress, that's also based on mutual understanding. How long have these two children known each other? How close can they be?"

Ms. Lin put another piece of braised pork into Chen Jingxing's bowl and said, "I welcome you to my home, but if you have other purposes, please forget it. We should say these after dinner, but I'm afraid that if I don't say them, my daughter will be taken away by you after dinner, haha..." Ms. Lin said the last sentence half-jokingly. To us, she seemed very domineering, but to Aunt Wei He and Chen Jingxing, it was a warning.

Wei He had heard from Rejie earlier that Qingmei seemed gentle and weak, and was a very easy-going person, but if she was really pissed off, she would not be polite. The words Qingmei said just now really made her feel like she had been enlightened. She had a good family background. She and her husband both graduated from a famous medical university, and both had stable jobs, a good income, and were quite respected. She had only one son, who was good-looking and had excellent grades. He was recommended to a school since he was a child, and she had never had to worry about anything. Although she was not from a wealthy family, she had the capital to show off. Jingxing had been constantly being watched since he was in junior high school, and many people wanted to become her relatives, so her mentality gradually became more and more arrogant. She believed that the person who could be worthy of her son and her family, even if he did not have to be of a noble family background, at least had a good family background, good education, and valuable spiritual connection. It's not that she hasn't come into contact with high-ranking officials before. There was once a girl from a wealthy family who pursued Jingxing for a long time. Jingxing didn't like her, even more. She was so spoiled and arrogant. It would be disastrous if she really married Jingxing.

When her sister-in-law said this, she was a little resistant. How could her son, who was so outstanding, also go on the road of blind dating? Her sister-in-law praised the girl to the sky, but she just listened and didn't take it to heart. After all, she had heard too many such words over the years. What's the use of praising her? Meeting the person is completely another matter. Her sister-in-law said that this time it was really different. The child was only twenty years old and was still in college, not to mention the tutoring. After her sister-in-law reminded her, she remembered that she had gone to the clothing store with her sister-in-law to buy clothes before. Thinking of the boss, Wei He also agreed that the boss's temperament and upbringing made her feel that it was a waste of talent to only do clothing business in a small county town. Judging from the boss's appearance and temperament, his daughter must be good-looking. She also heard the legend about the girl's college entrance examination from her sister-in-law. She suddenly became curious about this family and wanted to meet them.

Jingxing was reluctant at first, and she finally persuaded him to agree. Although he had been in the provincial capital for many years, he did go back to his hometown. It happened that she was on vacation recently and Jingxing was also on summer vacation, so he just went home to visit his family.
