When they were leaving, Cao Yong was still worried about the carefree couple, so he went into the kitchen once more to check if the gas pipeline was leaking, and after confirming everything was fine, he left with Zhu Huicang.
After they left, Li Xiaobing began chatting about gossip with her junior fellow student: "Cao Yong, when you first et him and then get to know him, and after getting along with him for a long ti, your impression of him is completely different."
Senior Cao is handso, with striking features, and dresses fashionably like a star under the spotlight on stage. However, his personality is definitely not what everyone imagines him to be—a decorative figure.
"I also didn’t expect Senior Cao to be such a good cook," Xie Wanying replied to senior fellow student Li. To her, Senior Cao doesn’t seem like a star, but more like a hobody.
Li Xiaobing was amused by her summary of Cao Yong: "Yes, yes, that’s right. He’s better at managing household affairs than my husband. I didn’t know before that he keeps turtles at ho. If you asked my husband to take care of turtles or goldfish, they’d die in a few days. It’s like asking my husband to buy groceries; he never knows how much he’s spent. If I ask him about it, he loses his temper with , saying it’s not that he can’t afford , which really pisses off."
At ho, typically one partner is more concerned with the household budget than the other.
The two n who left could faintly hear the won discussing them due to the poor sound insulation of the old building. As Zhu Huicang walked down the stairs, he sneezed, then, upon hearing his wife’s complaints, said grumpily about Cao Yong: "Alright, everyone knows that Cao Yong is better at keeping accounts than I am."
Cao Yong didn’t respond to him. Each family has its own way of living, and it wasn’t his place to intervene.
After venting, Zhu Huicang shared so married-man advice: "My wife might be a bit silly, but today she was trying to get so information for you. Trust , Yingying discussing this with my wife and complinting you as a hobody ans she’s considering marrying you."
Doctors are just ordinary people, though most doctors are very practical without chasing vanity. With the busy life, study, and work in hospitals, there’s no ti for romantic adventures. The fantasy of romance is unrealistic. Most ordinary people marry just to find a partner to live a serious life together, and doctors are no exception.
For down-to-earth intellectuals, true romance should be found in the ordinary bits of everyday life.
Regarding his old classmate’s bragging, Cao Yong calmly glanced back, "With you saying that, I really don’t know what Li Xiaobing saw in you."
Li Xiaobing just admitted herself that her husband can’t handle daily affairs and can’t even budget for groceries.
Zhu Huicang jumped up in frustration: "Who says I can’t budget? It’s such a small amount of money, why bother keeping it in mind?" He then muttered to himself that his wife said those things just to flatter Cao Yong in front of Xie Wanying and set him up.
Therefore, Cao Yong could never figure out how these clumsy people thought they could be good matchmakers.
Inside the house, Li Xiaobing, grateful to Cao Yong for lending her the house, advised her junior fellow student: "If you’re going to marry, marry soone who knows how to manage a household. Really, this way you won’t have a hard ti."
Senior Cao is enviable in his ability to manage household affairs. Xie Wanying looked at the ceiling deep in thought, feeling inadequate compared to Senior Cao because she wasn’t great at managing daily affairs. She wondered if Senior Cao would look down on soone like her.
