Her son's future partner needed to be attractive, but a prominent family background was also important.

Shao Meirou adjusted herself and pretended it was their first meeting, casually asking, "Xiaolin, what do you do for work?"
"I used to work in a factory, but I quit. Now I'm running a small business." Lin Xia didn't explain much, as she understood the pretense of not recognizing her.
"Oh! I see!" Shao Meirou had seen some of her businesses, and although owning a company wasn't looked down upon like it used to be, it still didn't sound as respectable as having a stable job.
Shao Chengzhi had a good impression of Lin Xia. Upon hearing her mention a small business, he curiously asked, "Lin Xia, what kind of small business?"
Lin Xia smiled lightly and answered, "I sell clothes and cosmetics!"
