AMMIH Chapter 2.1 -- Interrogated by Mom

     Since Shen YanFang had retired, she had become very idle at home. So occasionally when she was in a good mood, she would also come over to Qiao Yin's place to "observe."

    Thus, after she caught Qiao Yin in action, Shen YanFeng carried a big bag of groceries and leisurely made her way to the apartment. Usually, Shen YanFang would watch the news all morning and so she turned on the Television, showing no sign of scolding. She made Qiao Yin go wash the vegetables, it was only when it was time to cook lunch that she started her "interrogation" work.

    "Huang Ling is out on a business trip, you didn't answer your phone, so she called me immediately and told me to come to see you." Since stepping into the kitchen, Shen YanFeng's mouth did not stop, "She didn't say what the reason was, but I guessed that something might have happened between you and little Zheng! I told you many times, the appearance of a man cannot feed you, besides, even though little Zheng doesn't look as handsome as the little Xiao from across the hall, he is pretty honest, stable, and clean; he is also a professor at a college, he is perfect for you. Why is it that you can't figure that out?"

    "Ugh, mom! I already said it's not me who wanted to break up, it's Zheng ZiHao who wanted to break up!" Qiao Yin was helping her mother cut the tomatoes into small pieces, seeing the red tomato, she wanted to have a taste and threw a piece in her mouth, "he and his first love, who is also a teacher met again and their old affection began to ignite again. They've known each other for many years online already, this is called true love, how can my four years of love with him compare?"

    Qiao Yin didn't like to share her emotions, even if it was to her mother Shen YanFang, who had raised. She would rather hide behind her smile. Although she was not pretending, the things that make her depressed only affect her when she was alone. If she were to bring it up in a conversation, she would most likely turn it into something laughable.

    Shen YanFang was not pleased and raised her spatula as if she wanted to strike her, "You think you have a point, huh? Who was it that just experienced a breakup? The emperor is not worried, but his eunuchs are." 

**(note: this is a Chinese idiom, it means the observers are more anxious than the person involved. )**

    A big smile formed on Xiao Yin's lips as she raised her hands to cover her head and pretended to dodge. Her big eyes turned into a pair of crescent moons, as she quickly replied, "Yes, yes yes, seeing the eunuch worry, the emperor has no need to worry. Since mom is worrying for me, why should I worry? As expected, mom is the best~~ " After using sweet words to curry favor with her mom, she didn't forget to coquettishly hug Shen YanFang's arm, while her eyes were staring at the sweet and sour ribs in the pan greedily, "mmm, smells so good, won't you let me taste a piece?"

    Just as her currying of favor was working, she went and mentioned food causing Shen YaoFang to once again raise her spatula, "You only think about food!" 

    This time Qiao Yin did not dodge, she grabbed a pair of chopsticks and quickly picked up a piece of sweet and sour rib and sent it into her mouth and nodded with a smile, "mmm~ yummy! mom, do you want a taste? I will feed you!" She finished, picking up another piece and sending it towards Shen YanFang's mouth. But Shen YanFang jerked back with a look of disdain, "take it away, take it away, I won't eat something so sweet!"

    When the dishes were finally all set on the table, the "interrogation" continued. Shen YanFang took a seat as she sighed, knitting her brows at Qiao Yin, "is it really impossible for you and little Zheng now?" And seeing Qiao Yin look up with a big smile, she felt a bit depressed in her heart. She could only sigh again, "If you weren't already twenty-nine this year, with your conditions, taking your time to find someone would be alright."

    "Twenty-nine isn't considered old." Qiao Yin said as she bit on her chopsticks as her eyes scanned the dishes on the table, thinking about what to eat, "Worse comes to worst, I will just live my life single. It's not like I don't have enough money, what's there to be afraid of?"

    "You're only able to say this because you aren't old yet." Shen YanFeng said looking at her daughter with an odd expression before she placed a piece of Qiao Yin's favorite sweet and sour ribs into her bowl as if helping her decide what to eat, "No matter what, that little Xiao really is a no go. Listen to mom, mom is saying this for your own good." With that said, she went on to slyly ask, "nothing happened between the two of you last night.. right?"

    Qiao Yin excitedly bit down on a rib as she responded, "Really. Nothing happened. Xiao Yang is very proper."

    "Hmph, a single guy and girl, it's hard to say they won't think about something." Shen YanFang condescendingly said, jutting out her chin. Then she continued to nag, "Though what you said is understandable. After all, being a policeman is very tiring, he probably doesn't even have the energy to do those things. See, if you chose him as your husband, in the future you probably won't even have a child."

    Qiao Yin almost choked on her food. After managing to swallow the meat with tears forming in her eyes, she said, "Mom, this logic of yours is very amazing..."
