Chapter 72 Xu's Sister-in-law

Xinyi looked very happy, but when her aunt asked her grandfather to bring back some candies last time, her grandfather said they were good things that were not sold in the town, and a bag of them in the county was very expensive, so she was reluctant to share them with her friends.

Forget it. Her aunt had already given her the instructions. If she knew she wouldn’t listen, she would definitely be angry. She decided to go back and get two pieces and let them each take a small bite.

The carriage stopped at the door of Xu's house.

The three sons of the Xu family did not separate the family, and since Xu's father was the head of the village, all major family affairs were decided by his father.

The Xu family has a large courtyard surrounded by blue bricks, so the Xu family is one of the few relatively wealthy families in Xujia Village.

The yard is so big that you can't see the bottom from the outside.

Xinyi jumped off the carriage and explained, "Grandpa and the others have gone to the fields. I guess only Aunt and Sister are at home."

She turned around to help Gu Yunyi get something, and then she saw that the part of the shaft where she sat was stained with mud and water. She was embarrassed for a moment, and then she said to the driver, "I'm sorry, uncle. I will definitely clean it for you later."

The driver was a kind man and lived not far from the Gu family restaurant. It was he who took Gu Yunyi to the provincial capital this time, so they were quite familiar with each other. Of course, he would not care about these things. After all, his little granddaughter was the same, very naughty, like a tomboy, just like her.

He smiled and patted Xinyi's head: "It's okay, it's okay, I can wash it myself later."

Xinyi smiled a little embarrassedly. Although Xinyi was a tomboy, she was a girl after all.

Turning around, a man in brocade robe got off the carriage.

Xinyi was stunned for a moment.

She sat on the shaft of the carriage for a while, focusing on talking to Xu Qingmeng, and didn't notice that there was another person in the carriage.

He was wearing a dark green robe, the hem of which swayed in the wind. He had a handsome face, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a straight nose, and a faint smile at the corners of his lips. He exuded a gentle and yet handsome temperament.

Xinyi couldn't help but stare in amazement. Although everyone in the Xu family was very good-looking, he looked like he had walked out of a painting.

Xu Qingmeng pinched her face amusedly: "This is your uncle, hurry up and call someone."

Xinyi came back to her senses and asked with wide eyes, "Aunt, how did your uncle agree to marry you?"

Gu Yunyi almost laughed out loud.

Xu Qingmeng was so embarrassed that she slapped her on the back, "What a shame! Hurry up and open the door."

Upon hearing this, Xinyi opened the door and ran to the yard, shouting as she ran: "Auntie, sister, my aunt is back, and she brought a little uncle who walked out of a painting with her."

Gu Yunyi's face turned red all of a sudden. If it were Yun Sheng, he would probably catch her and beat her up.

When Xu Qing dreamed of Gu Yunyi being like that, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Gu Yunyi's face turned even redder at this moment, and he quickly went to the carriage to take out the things he had brought.

When the driver saw that everything was unloaded, he led the horses to graze.

After hearing Xinyi's words, the eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family hurried out of the house and saw Xu Qingmeng and Gu Yunyi already standing in the yard.

"Little sister?" Although the eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family had already known from the head of the family that Xu Qingmeng had lost a lot of weight, she did not expect her to lose so much weight.

"Sister-in-law, I'm back." Xu Qingmeng greeted her with a smile and gave Xu's sister-in-law a big hug.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family's eyes suddenly became red, but after all, it was the first time for the new son-in-law to come to her house, so she tried hard not to let the tears fall. She patted Xu Qingmeng on the back and said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. How come you've lost so much weight? You must make up for it when you come back this time."

Not long after Xu Qingmeng was born, her mother passed away. She was almost entirely raised by the eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family who had just married into the Xu family. Loved by the four men of the Xu family and doted on by the eldest sister-in-law, Xu Qingmeng was a very well-behaved child. It was only because of a serious illness that she became what she later became.

"Sister-in-law, it's my fault. I should have come back earlier."

"Okay, okay." The eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family laughed, turned her head and saw Gu Yunyi behind her, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Even though I had heard from the head of the household and my father-in-law that Meng'er had found a good husband and had even ranked first in the exam, I had never met him and didn't know whether he was good for Meng's mother.

Now I just see him standing there quietly, with dreams in his eyes, and I feel satisfied from the bottom of my heart.

She let go of Xu Qingmeng, then took her hand and said, "This is Yun Yi, right? I heard my father-in-law and the head of the family mention you a few days ago. Well, our Meng'er is blessed."

"Thank you for your praise, sister-in-law. I apologize to you for not coming to your house after so many days of marriage." Gu Yunyi bowed.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family said quickly, "No, no, we are all family, there is no need to be so formal. Are you feeling better? Studying is hard work. Come in and sit down. You must be tired from the journey."

Having said that, he invited Gu Yunyi into the house.

Xu Qingmeng stood there, her face full of confusion. Didn't the sister-in-law say she missed her? Why did she miss her for just a moment?

Xinyi laughed out loud, Xinwan covered her mouth and couldn't help laughing. At the end, she didn't forget to say, "Aunt, my mother talks about my uncle almost every day at home. Are you jealous?"

"I haven't seen you for a long time. You've become bolder now. You dare to laugh at your aunt. Don't you want to eat candy?"

The two children immediately became obedient: "Eat!"

"Come over and get to work." Xu Qingmeng directed the two men to pick up the things on the ground.

"Yeah." The two children immediately smiled happily.

The eldest sister-in-law of the Xu family was talking in the room, all about Xu Qingmeng's childhood.

A distinguished guest came to the Xu family, and soon the whole Xujia Village knew about it.

When the Xu family heard the news, they hurried home. The second sister-in-law, who was visiting friends outside, walked even faster when she heard the news.

In the past, my sister-in-law was spoiled by the Xu family and the eldest sister-in-law, and she was greedy and selfish. Who would have thought that she would become a different person after getting married.

No matter who goes to the county town, they will never come back empty-handed.

There were mutton and pork, cakes and pastries, and braised meat.

Everyone in the family was eating their fill, and they were spending more comfortably than during the Chinese New Year.

I was thinking about what gift my sister-in-law would bring this time, and how to get more from it to take to my parents' home, so my steps became faster and faster.

As soon as the second sister-in-law entered the room, her eyes widened and she muttered to herself, this sister-in-law is so lucky.

In the past, when she was a girl, she was pampered by several men in the Xu family. When she was getting married, she had a crazy idea and fell in love with Gu Yunyi from the county town, and he actually made her successful.

"Oh, this is my brother-in-law. He is so handsome and talented!" The second sister-in-law looked at Gu Yunyi with a smile and kept praising him.

Gu Yunyi responded with a smile, polite and decent. Xu Qingmeng looked at the enthusiasm of the second sister-in-law and laughed in her heart. The second sister-in-law was still the same, unable to walk when she saw good things.
