Su Yun wasn’t sure why Jin Lan Hua had suddenly said that, but she was happy to hear her daughter being praised.

She said, "Sister Jin, you’re amazing too. Look at Little Fatty—so sturdy and strong. He’s so healthy and cute."

Jin Lan Hua also loved hearing people say good things about her child.

Hearing the two moms trade compliments about their children, Qin Jiao breathed a sigh of relief.

’Looks like using the space to sell vegetables is risky, and the profits aren’t very high either. I’ve only made a few hundred yuan so far. At most, I’ll only be able to save up enough money to buy a computer and a cell phone for myself before the college entrance exams are over.’

’Of course, I don’t want to use one of those popular brick phones that are on the market now. I want to wait a bit, until the PHS network is approved, and then buy a proper cell phone.’

’But that’s all for later.’

’Selling vegetables might be slow, but it’s the only thing I can really do for now.’

’Because once the college entrance exams are over, the world will be my oyster. A wide sea for the fish to leap, a high sky for the birds to fly!’ 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

’Besides, I have to guard the secret of this space carefully, just like my rebirth. So, for the most part, the most important thing is to keep a low profile.’

Meanwhile, Qin Zhonghui and Su Yun were helping Qin Na size up her potential partner, chatting with Sun Jianhua in the living room. Sun Jianhua was thirty-two, a suitable age for Qin Na. Since they were both divorced, that wasn’t an issue. Their main goal was to gauge Sun Jianhua’s character.

Sun Jianhua was indeed a handsome man with sharp features. Because he was always on the road for his business, his skin was a bit tanned, which made his teeth look very white when he smiled.

He said with sincerity, "I lost money on a business venture before, so my financial situation is just so-so. My parents weren’t in good health and passed away young. I have an older sister who married and moved to the provincial capital, but we don’t have much contact since she’s so far away. I met Qin Na at night school, and I feel that she’s a good woman—very gentle, hardworking, and ambitious. I was hoping she would become a mother to my child, and my wife."

Su Yun said, "So you’re just saying that because our Xiao Na is good-tempered, you want to find a stepmother for your son who will take care of him for you?"

"No, no, no, Sister-in-law," he said. "I’m being completely upfront and not hiding a thing. I’ve told you everything—that I’ve been married, have a child, and that my business failed. I genuinely like Xiao Na and want to marry her. She respects you both very much, so I wouldn’t dare conceal anything from you."

That did sound sincere. After all, he had brought his son with him on the very first meeting.

The boy was rather quiet and withdrawn. After all, his mother had run off, his father didn’t have much money and was busy trying to make a living every day. The boy usually just hung around by the vegetable stall.

When it comes to divorce, regardless of who was at fault, the children are always the ones who suffer the most.

Qin Zhonghui and Su Yun had children of their own, and their hearts ached a little seeing the boy watch Little Fatty and Xiao Shi play with building blocks with such longing eyes.

Objectively speaking, Sun Jianhua’s character seemed decent. Plus, he had no family left in his hometown aside from a cousin like Jin Lan Hua. He already had a son, so they wouldn’t have to worry about whether or not Xiao Na could give birth to a boy.

Qin Zhonghui and his wife also understood that Qin Na herself was willing.

The fact that Sun Jianhua was laying out his entire situation—flaws and strengths included—without hiding anything was a good thing.

Qin Zhonghui thought for a moment, then asked, "You lost money in business before, and now you’re selling vegetables at the market. What are your plans for the future?"

Sun Jianhua said earnestly, "I plan to sell vegetables, save up some money, and then go back into business."

Qin Zhonghui: "Then aren’t you worried you’ll lose everything all over again?"

Sun Jianhua said, "Business always has its ups and downs. Of course, I’ll be more cautious than last time and won’t let myself fail so miserably. No matter what, I have to think about my wife and child."
