Blind-date (2)

The next day, Lisa was escorted to the blind-date appointment.

This day, Lisa and her Mother both controlled their temper. Although they didn't talk much, Lisa actively finished all the chores at home. Her Mother quietly bought food that Lisa likes to eat and at the dinner table, both of them had also picked up food* for each other.

(Picked up food is the act of using chopsticks to pick food from the main dish and putting it into a person's bowl or plate. This gesture during mealtimes happens when a friend or family member shows his concern or love for the other person. If it is an act of courtesy like at a business dinner or dinner with acquaintances, the food can be served using a common serving spoon or picked up using a pair of common chopsticks.)

When her Mother saw Lisa's attitude was good, she did not scold her again. She only mentioned that there would be a dinner in the evening and she was taking her there to meet the young man to see whether she will be pleasing to his eye.

Her Father instantly shot a wink at her Mother and in his heart, he did not agree that her words be said in such a way. It should be said they want to see whether their daughter would take a liking for the other person. How can they be so passive and let their own family be looked down?

Lisa sighed. Her mother's style had always been the same. Why should her father take her mother's words to heart?

In short, her Mother took her daughter to the dinner that night.

When they arrived at the restaurant, she met a woman who looked around her mother's age. her Mother poked at her and said. "Call her Auntie."

"Hello, Auntie." She greeted politely.

The woman smiled, swept her eyes around Lisa and looked at her from top to bottom. Then she praised her. "Lili looks very pretty with fine facial features, stylish and proper. Your mother is really fortunate to have you."

"Oh, she is just lucky. She managed to pick up all the good traits from me and her Dad." Her Mother was obviously very happy and quickly replied.

She sat at the side and smiled, thinking there was something wrong with her Mom's words. What did she say?

The three of them sat down. Lisa's Elders phobia had started and her movements were somewhat rigid.

The woman ordered some dishes and said. "My son is busy and only came back this afternoon. He had not even sat down for a few minutes and he was called away by his friends to do some work. He wants to start a driving school here and there are some connections he had to handle. He will be coming late, I hope you don't mind."

"It's alright, it's alright." Lisa Mother's attitude was exceptionally good which was completely different from her usual self at home.

Lisa sitting beside her was unable to interrupt and listened to the two mothers talking about the recent weather, the market's prevailing vegetable prices, the shop that was selling the middle-aged fashionable clothes at cheap prices, skin-care products that were cheap and good, the various type of health products and their effects.........
