Chapter 46 First Meeting with Yu Ge'er
Chu Minglan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, the dumplings made by our aunt are famous in the village for being delicious."
Aunt Chu's face was filled with relief. "As long as you like it, An An will be happy to eat it in the future. If you want to eat it, just let me know and I will pack more for you to take home."
Several people ate dumplings and chatted about family matters, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Lin Anan was not hungry, and after trying a few, he couldn't eat anymore. The rest was taken away by Chu Mingzhou and went into his stomach.
Aunt Chu was very happy to see that the young couple had a good relationship and was not shy about it.
"Aunt, I'll go wash the dishes."
Lin Anan took the initiative to help clean up the dishes, but Aunt Chu quickly stopped her and said, "Anan, you don't have to do anything. Just sit down."
I couldn't persuade her any more, so I just let her do what she wanted.
Just as we finished eating the dumplings, we heard some noise in the room.
Chu Minglan hurried into the house and soon brought out three radish heads.
"Sister-in-law, this is Yu Ge'er, this is Cheng Ge'er, and this is Zhi Ge'er." Chu Minglan introduced them one by one.
The three children looked about the same age, all around eight or nine years old. They looked somewhat alike, with chubby bodies that were very cute, and they were all dressed up neatly.
Lin Anan looked at the three children with a gentle smile on her face. She squatted down and said softly, "Hello, nice to meet you."
The three children were a little shy, but they also responded politely, "Hello, sister-in-law."
Lin Anan touched Chu Mingyu's head and said, "Xiaoyu, is your leg healed?"
"It's fine. It doesn't hurt at all."
"That's good."
Lin Anan hurriedly took out the red envelopes that she had prepared earlier and gave one to each person. She also took out three portions of candy wrapped in paper bags, one for each person.
"Wow, what kind of candy is this? It smells so good."
Children are simple-minded and have no idea about red envelopes. They just put them on the table casually, and their attention is all on the various candies.
Lin Anan spent some time with the three little guys and quickly became friends with them.
"Sister-in-law, let me show you my invention!"
"Ah? Is this something Xiaoyu invented himself? What is it?"
Chu Mingyu puffed out his chest, extremely proud, "It's a train~"
"train?"
Lin Anan was a little confused when she heard this.
When I saw a pile of copper and iron on the ground, I was even more confused...
"Sister-in-law, I'm awesome."
Chu Mingyu picked up an iron lump and shook it in front of Lin Anan, his eyes shining, as if waiting for her praise.
Lin Anan reached out to take it, and carefully looked at the... black lump of iron in front of him.
Is this a locomotive?
"That's amazing, Xiaoyu, do you want to make carriages again?"
"How did sister-in-law know that this was a locomotive?"
"Well, I can tell at a glance."
Lin Anan curled her eyes and didn't care about logic. She just praised him, "Xiao Yu, you are so amazing, right? Will this train run?"
"Yes, yes. Once I have everything ready, the train will be able to run by itself once the electricity is turned on..."
Chu Mingyu was talking with his hands and feet gesticulating, and Lin Anan listened very cooperatively.
He said that she praised him and his emotional value was perfect.
"Well, I believe Xiaoyu can do it."
At this second, Chu Mingyu felt that his sister-in-law was the best person in the family, the only one who understood him, and was extremely nice. He thought he was very great.
After lunch, it was almost time for everyone to say goodbye.
I thought Chu Mingyu would whine and refuse to leave, but unexpectedly he was so decisive this time. He packed up his pile of copper and iron things and asked Chu Mingzhou to put them in the trunk. Then he waved to his aunt and two brothers, indicating that he was leaving.
Lin Anan was still standing, but she didn't expect the little guy to take the initiative to come forward and hold her hand...
"Sister-in-law, let's go."
Chu Mingzhou looked at this scene, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he called Chu Minglan to get in the car as well.
The car started slowly, and Aunt Chu and a few others stood at the gate of the yard, waving goodbye.
Lin Anan rolled down the car window and reached out her hand, "Aunt, we'll see you during the New Year. Take care of yourself."
"Okay, An'an, be careful on the road."
Just before the meal, Chu Mingzhou discussed with Lin Anan and decided to invite his aunt and other two to celebrate the New Year together.
First, she was worried that Lin Anan would be too tired. Her current health really couldn't handle the hard work. There were many trivial matters to deal with during the New Year, and Chu Minglan alone couldn't do it.
The second reason is that the elderly feel lonely, there are few people at home, and the years are lonely.
Of course Lin Anan had no objection. Her aunt was a good person and her two brothers were well-behaved and sensible. What was the big deal?
Along the way, the atmosphere in the car was very relaxed. Chu Mingyu chattered about various interesting things in the village, and Chu Minglan also shared her recent situation with him. Lin Anan listened carefully and expressed her opinions from time to time, making the two little guys laugh.
Chu Mingzhou was concentrating on driving, and occasionally he would glance through the rearview mirror, his eyes full of tenderness.
When passing through the urban area of Beitian County, the car turned in.
"Brother, where are we going?" Chu Minglan was the first to realize that the road was wrong and asked.
"Go buy something for your sister-in-law."
Lin Anan blinked her eyes. She was in this unfamiliar place. Was there anything she wanted to buy?
Chu Mingzhou parked the car in front of a small alley, told several people to stay in the car and not run around, and then got out.
After a while, Lin Anan saw him coming back with a bag.
"Here, it's goat milk soap."
Lin Anan was a little surprised. She took the bag and took a look at the goat milk soap inside.
