Mother Lu unhurriedly put the things in the kitchen into the pot and placed it on the stove. Then, she washed her hands and walked out of the kitchen. Moe also jumped off the stove behind Mother Lu and walked out of the kitchen with elegant steps.
Jiang Yao went upstairs after Mother Lu came out of the kitchen. Aunt Li felt that Jiang Yao didn't know how to treat guests well. "How can the younger generation hide in the room when the elders come?"
"She hasn't been well recently. The doctor told her to rest in bed more and not to tire herself out." Mother Lu explained, then looked at the woman behind Aunt Li and asked, "Sister-in-law, why are you here today? Why did Second Sister-in-law come again today? If you want to talk to me about work, then I can't help you. I can't help you with the matchmaking either. "
It wasn't that Mother Lu didn't want her niece to do well, but she had to be worthy of her concern.
She knew what her family was like. If she did a good matchmaking, she might not be remembered well. If she did a bad matchmaking, they would definitely blame her for it. They would blame her for not being serious about matchmaking for Li Qing, so she introduced a bad man to Li Qing and ruined Li Qing's life.
Older people in other families might like to be matchmakers. When they saw young men and women of marriageable age, they would ask them a few questions and help introduce them. However, Mother Lu was different. She had never been a matchmaker.
"I'm not here to matchmake or work." Aunt Li smiled. "The jobs in my family are not bad. It's easy and secure. They're all married. My granddaughters and grandsons are still young."
"Then why are you here?" Mother Lu blurted out.
"Aren't we here to borrow your sewing machine for a while? The children at home are naughty. We need to make new bedsheets and quilt covers at home. We also need to make some clothes for the older children. Unfortunately, our sewing machine is broken, so we want to borrow it from your family, "Eldest Sister-in-law Li said.
"Aunt, I also want to borrow your bicycle. My father uses my bicycle. My work is far from home. It's inconvenient if I don't have a car. Don't you have a bicycle that no one rides? Since no one is riding it, it's not a waste to leave it there. Can you lend it to me? "Li Qing quickly followed up when Sister Li spoke.
"I don't know how to use a sewing machine. Why would I have one at home? Your uncle and I both use bicycles, where can we get a new one? "Mother Lu responded with a fake smile.
"Auntie, how can you not have it? Didn't Jiang Yao bring a sewing machine and a bicycle with her when she married into the family? I don't see her using it. Did she put it in the storage room in the courtyard? " Li Qing pointed to the storeroom outside the courtyard and said matter-of-factly, "It's such a waste to leave it unused. Lending it to us will make the best use of it!"
"That's your cousin-in-law. You sure know how to call her by her name." Mother Lu didn't give Li Qing any face at all. "How old are you? How can you still be so impudent!"
Yesterday, she even said that her daughter-in-law was impudent. Why didn't she take a look at the Li family's daughter?
"Also, you know that it's your cousin-in-law's dowry. Since it's her dowry, it belongs to her. What does it have to do with me? Even if I want to use it, I have to ask her if she agrees. How can I make the decision to lend it to you? "
