Synopsis:
The biggest fun for the overworked employee Xia Wenxi every day is ...
Xia Wensheng was still stuck in traffic when he received his sister's message.
He thought it was a really good idea, so he simply called Minghuan and told her to pack her things if she was willing to go, and he would come over and pick her up.
With this heavy snowfall and the weather forecast predicting more snow for the next few days, everyone is staying home, and no one is going to go to a concert, so the orchestra has simply given itself a holiday.
As Aunt Li said, Xia Wensheng usually only has a few cans of drinks in his refrigerator, not even eggs, and he never cooks for himself.
Minghuan's situation is slightly better; she still makes some occasionally, but her inventory is definitely not high.
When Xia Wensheng called, Minghuan was taking stock of the food at home. She was thinking that if Wensheng came to stay, the two of them would have to hurry to the supermarket to stock up on some food.
"There's a bit of traffic on the road right now, but it should be soon. Why don't you pack your things first? Just bring some clothes, and also bring Dengdeng. Don't worry about Dengdeng's food; we've bought plenty for Xiaoyuer at home."
Xia Wensheng was afraid that his girlfriend would feel embarrassed, so he added, "My parents won't be home for the next few days, so it'll be more lively if we go over."
Minghuan thought for a moment and agreed. After hanging up the phone, she went to pack her things and waited for Xia Wensheng to pick her up.
"Aunt Li, my brother said he'll bring Minghuan back with him, and Minghuan's cat too!"
"Okay! Then when I cook for Xiaoyuer, I'll make an extra portion too."
Aunt Li was eager to get started; the more people there were, the more room she had to perform!
"Miss……"
Seeing that Aunt Li seemed hesitant to speak, Xia Wenxi asked, "Aunt Li, is there anything else?"
Aunt Li suddenly realized that since Wen Sheng and Miss Ming had both returned, perhaps Miss Ming's boyfriend was also...
"Miss, why don't you invite Mr. Lin to come along too? It'll be more lively with more people at home."
Xia Wenxi swallowed the strawberry in her mouth and hesitated, "Isn't that a bad idea? He just got home from my house not long ago, and now he's bringing people back here?"
Lin Shen is different from Xia Wensheng. He is a good cook and has plenty of ingredients at home, so there is no need to worry about him not having enough to eat while staying at home.
When Aunt Li heard Xia Wenxi say this, she spoke in a knowing tone, and said mysteriously, "Miss, regardless of whether he comes or not, just asking him will make him happy!"
"ah--"
Xia Wenxi pretended to suddenly realize something, "Okay, I'll ask her later. I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable, Aunt Li."
"That's right, Old Li, I didn't read those novels and watched those idol dramas for nothing."
Knowing that Xia Wensheng and Sister Minghuan were coming, Xia Wenxi didn't go upstairs again, but sat down in the living room with the fruit.
After sitting down, she called Lin Shen again to check on her boyfriend.
"Are you coming? Xia Wensheng and Sister Minghuan will be coming too. If you come, the four of us can make a table and play cards."
"I won't be going to Wenxi. I plan to pack my things and go back to the old house. My mother lives there alone now."
His two older brothers and sister are all married and have their own families. If he were to go, he would have to bring his family along. He usually only goes back occasionally for a meal and doesn't stay overnight. So he decided to take advantage of this free time and go over to stay for two days.
"Oh, okay, then drive carefully and let me know when you arrive."
The last time Xia Wenxi saw Lin Shen's mother was at the hospital. The old lady lived alone, and she seemed very lonely.
"Okay, I checked, it snows for a maximum of three days. How about coming to my place next weekend? I'll cook for you."
Xia Wenxi laughed at him, "Oh, so you really enjoy cooking?"
"Yes, I like watching Wenxi eat the food I cook."
The two chatted for a while, but Lin Shen had to go out, so he didn't say much more. The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and he had to hurry before he went out.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Wenxi realized how quiet it was now. Apart from the occasional sound of burning firewood coming from the fireplace, there was almost nothing else.
The main reason is that she's been very busy recently, and now that she has some free time, she really feels a bit empty.
I got up, turned on the TV, slumped back onto the sofa, listened to the background noise, and started playing on my phone out of sheer boredom.
More than an hour later, Xia Wenxi was drinking Aunt Li's loving soup while waiting for Sister Minghuan to come over.
She had almost finished her bowl of soup when she heard a car horn in the yard. She quickly got up and ran to open the door.
"Minghuan! I miss you so much! And Dengdeng, I miss it too!"
Minghuan was carrying a cat carrier, while Xia Wensheng was carrying luggage in one hand and Dengdeng's things in the other.
Xia Wensheng watched as his sister enthusiastically welcomed his girlfriend into the house, not even sparing him a glance...
"Minghuan, is Dengdeng brave enough? Why don't we find a room for it to stay in for a while to get used to it? We happen to have the cat bed I bought for Xiaoyuer before, it's brand new!"
She had previously bought two different colored Christmas tree cat beds to match the occasion. She had trouble choosing at the time, and since they both looked nice, she simply bought them both. Now, they can be used by Dengdeng.
"Thank you, Wenxi. Dengdeng isn't exactly timid, but it's still fine for it to stay in the same room as me."
"Okay! Minghuan, your room has already been cleaned by the auntie. I'll take you upstairs."
...
"Hey! Doesn't anyone in this family care about me?"
Xia Wensheng, carrying her luggage, stepped forward and stood on the other side of Minghuan. "Xia Wenxi, I'll take Huanhuan. You stay over there."
"Minghuan hasn't said anything, so who gave you the right to say it?"
The three of them bickered and made a ruckus as they went upstairs. Only then did Aunt Li come out and say to the housekeeper beside her, "It would be so nice if they got married and lived at home, and had two more kids. That would be so lively!"
...
The Lin family's old house was quite far away, and with traffic jams on the road, even on roads without traffic jams, visibility was too low due to the heavy snow, so Lin Shen didn't dare to drive fast. It took him more than two hours to get there from his apartment.
When the maid opened the door, she saw him and said, "Fourth Young Master, you're back too? Madam must be overjoyed today."
Lin Shen sensed that someone else had returned.
Then he heard laughter and cheerful voices coming from the living room.
"Mom... Second brother, sister, brother-in-law."
Lin Shen was surprised to see them, and they were surprised to see Lin Shen.
"Xiao Shen, why are you back at this time? Didn't you say you were going to play with Xiao Xi? Why did you rush back in this heavy snow?"
Lin Shen sat down and explained that he had come back, and then asked his second brother and sister why they had come.
Lin Zhan pursed his lips and said, "Your second sister-in-law went to Hokkaido to see the snow. I was bored at home alone, and since Mom was also home alone, I came over. Your second sister-in-law is just too idle. There's so much snow at home, she had to go to Japan to see it!"
