He Jun's hometown is in a commune near Xiangyang County, which is an hour away by oxcart. This led to frequent visits between the two families. Fortunately, He Jun's parents were very understanding and knew that He Jun only had one son, He Dongdong, so they loved him dearly.

Every time they come to the county, they bring either their own farm eggs or dried apricots made from the apricots they picked up from the mountain. They bring whatever they have. If they come across something rare, the old couple will feel bad if they don't send it to their grandson the next day.

Speaking of this, Li Yanran was quite emotional, saying, "You know, if I had to be stuck with in-laws like these, I would feel guilty even if they didn't let me open my heart to them."

Shen Fenghua smiled slightly, "Who says otherwise?"

Some people just don't have strong family ties, and you can't force these things. Shen Fenghua felt that she had to learn to let go. Besides, if her parents weren't good enough, she still had her maternal grandmother.

Grandma gave her so much love that Shen Fenghua became strong-willed. Otherwise, the cold treatment she received upon returning would have made her withdrawn and gloomy, and she would have developed a cheerful personality instead.

Pfft, dreaming.

"By the way, did you tell Qi Ye about bringing the old lady here?"

Speaking of this, Shen Fenghua couldn't hide the smile on her face at all. "Yes, I told him, and he agreed."

Seeing Shen Fenghua's sweet expression, Li Yanran swallowed all her discouraging words. There was no need to shatter her mood. Besides, even if something went wrong in the future, she would be there to support her. What was there to be afraid of?

I'm not afraid at all.

Thinking about the family that would soon be formed, Li Yanran chuckled to herself.

Aside from the fact that the two children share the same surname, this is a complete hodgepodge of surnames put together to live together.

But thinking about it more deeply, Li Yanran felt a pang of sadness.

One is an elderly person whose children are unfilial; another is a pitiful child who has parents but is not loved; and yet another has lost both parents and has only siblings whose relationship is as distant as water, and who may not even communicate once in eight hundred years.

Then there are the two children, who lost their parents at a young age and were neglected from childhood, suffering greatly.

It was more like a group of homeless people coming together, working together to light their own lamp. In the city at night, amidst the heavy shadows, their lamp shone brightly among the myriad lights.

Li Yanran suppressed her heartache, took Shen Fenghua's hand, and said softly, "It's good. They say many hands make light work. From now on, we'll live together, help each other, and live a good life."

Shen Fenghua's eyes crinkled with laughter. "Yes, definitely."

After a good meal, who wouldn't want to live a happy and carefree life?

but……

Shen Fenghua grinned and snuggled up to Li Yanran. "Sister, my dear sister, would you like me to live closer to you?"

Li Yanran's eyelids twitched, and in a few swift movements, Shen Fenghua ripped her off. "What mischief are you up to now?"

"Oh dear!" Shen Fenghua was completely shameless. Even though she was torn off, she put her face back on in the next second. "They're getting married soon and will soon be living the happy life of having elderly parents, young children, and a little partner. With the family complete, shouldn't we start thinking about how to allocate our house?"

Oh, it's a house.

Li Yanran laughed, "Can't you be a little more dignified?"

"I'm so successful, you have no idea who I've set my sights on..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Yanran interrupted him, "How come I didn't know?"

She gave me a look that said, "You underestimate me," and parted her red lips slightly, "Is it the little courtyard at No. 22 Wutong Street?"

Shen Fenghua: "!!!"

Her eyes lit up instantly, like a light bulb exclaiming, "Sis, how did you know?"

"Because that was originally reserved for you."

The steel mill was wealthy and generous, and its benefits were always excellent. Shen Fenghua had ruined her health and become infertile because of the mill's interests. The mill didn't say anything, but the higher-ups remembered it and made sure that Shen Fenghua received the best benefits available to her.

Moreover, Shen Fenghua is a down-to-earth person who has never acted arrogantly or bossy because of his contributions to the factory.

She made such a great contribution and still followed the rules and regulations meticulously. Anyone who oversteps the bounds should consider whether they have the right to do so.

It can be said that as long as Shen Fenghua does not make mistakes, her work can be passed down for generations.

A secure job, but one that's also gilded.

Then there's this little courtyard. Li Yanran sighed, "It was originally a wedding gift prepared for you by the factory leaders."

I just never expected that the things I prepared five years ago would still be useless.

Shen Fenghua couldn't quite describe the feeling in her heart.

"When you go to work tomorrow, go to the factory manager's office and have a good chat with him. Mention, subtly or overtly, that you've been on a blind date and met the right person. The rest is none of your concern!"

"Okay, don't worry, I'll take care of it."

She wasn't proactive about the house, which indicated a problem with her thinking. Her original plan was to have Li Yanran sound out the potential buyers first. If it worked out, she would take the plunge and win the house. If not, she would make other plans as soon as possible.

The cowbells jingled and tinkled, accompanied by the laughter of children, ringing all the way.

.

Fortunately, we set off early, and the sun was only just starting to beat down when we arrived in the countryside.

When Aunt He saw the car carrying three children, she was taken aback at first, but then she became incredibly enthusiastic, "Fenghua came along too!"

The entire He family was incredibly welcoming to Shen Fenghua. Shen Fenghua jumped off the oxcart, beaming, "Auntie, I didn't just come by myself, I brought two little ones with me!"

After saying that, she pulled all the children who were hiding behind her to the front, "Come on, call her Grandma!"

"grandmother!"

Looking at the two skinny children in front of her, and then silently raising her eyes to see her own skinny child, Aunt He was speechless. What's wrong? Can't her He family produce a chubby child?

After the two children finished greeting everyone, they anxiously awaited Aunt He's response. To everyone's surprise, after holding back for a while, Aunt He's first words were, "How about Grandma makes you some egg drop soup?"

Eat more and get more nutrition, so you can at least gain some weight!

Egg drop soup?

Shen Fenghua didn't expect Aunt He to act unpredictably, but Li Yanran agreed, "That's fine, Mom. Add some brown sugar to the egg drop soup later. The child loves to drink a little bit of the sweet soup."

Aunt He beamed, "Hey! Don't worry, how could you not trust your mother to handle things?"

"Well," Li Yanran said, seeing that her mother-in-law had agreed, she quickly turned to He Dongdong and asked, "Xiao Dong, would you like to have a drink too?"
