"What are you talking about? This is your home, so of course you have your room. I see you two haven't seen each other for a long time, so hurry up and sit down to eat. Father and son, each of you has a more stubborn temper than the other!"

Liu Miaofeng stepped forward to smooth things over, and pushed her second son Jiang Sui to his seat, then rubbed her hands and said, "Alas, I thought you wouldn't be back until tomorrow, so I thought I'd go buy some meat early in the morning and make dumplings for you."

"No need. I'm relieved that you're okay, Mom. I'll take the early bus back tomorrow morning. I have to go to the factory to help people repair things in the morning." Jiang Sui took the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.

Except for him, everyone else at the table looked at Jiang Dejian, who was sitting on the north side, with fear.

Jiang Dejian's expression was horribly ugly: "When are you planning to come back?"

"It depends on the situation. It's hard to say right now," Jiang Sui said nonchalantly. "Anyway, we have an older brother and sister-in-law at home, so they don't need me anymore."

"You are still complaining about what happened in the past!" Jiang Dejian's face turned pale. "Why do we have to be so particular about family matters? When you go back tomorrow, quickly divorce that country girl, and then come back to the city to work. In a few days, your mother and I will help you choose a wife who is worthy of you."

Jiang Sui, who was already in a bad mood, completely lost his appetite. He slammed his chopsticks on the table and said, "Don't bother my parents with my affairs. It's impossible for me to come back! I only have this one wife, and I will not divorce her, let alone marry someone else. You should give up on this idea as soon as possible!"

Jiang Dejian wanted to get angry again, but Liu Miaofeng quickly reached out to stop him: "What are you doing? He finally came home, can you please stop saying those things that annoy him?"

Liu Miaofeng got angry, and Jiang Dejian could only suppress his anger and said sternly: "If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer sooner or later!"

"Okay, shut up!"

Liu Miaofeng patted Jiang Dejian impatiently.

After Jiang Dejian finally shut up, Liu Miaofeng enthusiastically served Jiang Sui dishes and soup: "Don't you miss your mother? You didn't even come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the day for family reunion, and you stayed in the countryside, leaving our whole family behind?"

Since the hard approach didn’t work, Liu Miaofeng tried the soft approach.

Jiang Sui ate quietly and only spoke to her occasionally.

At the end, Liu Miaofeng began to wipe away her tears. Jiang Sui felt annoyed. He used up his remaining patience to watch him not only treat his wife unfairly, but also speak coldly to his own wife and insult his own mother.

"Mom, I know everything. I'll think about it calmly and give you an answer tomorrow."

When Liu Miaofeng heard this, she finally smiled: "Okay, Erbao, think about it carefully. Dad and Mom will not harm you. This opportunity to return to the city is so rare. Besides, I heard that your job pays very well. The family will rely on you in the future."

"Ahem!" Jiang Dejian glared at Liu Miaofeng in dissatisfaction, "What are you talking about! As long as your son comes back, that's enough. Don't force anything else. Now that your son is back, you don't have to cry every day missing him."

"Yes, yes. As long as my Erbao can come back, everything else is meaningless." Liu Miaofeng smiled and stood up to serve the meal. "Erbao, my family baked white flour buns today. You rarely eat white flour in the countryside, right?"

"It's true that I don't eat it often, but I'm full now," Jiang Sui shook his head and didn't take it. "Mom, you eat it. I've been busy all day and I'm a little tired now. I'm going to go back and rest first, and think about what you said by the way."

"Okay, we won't bother you."

Liu Miaofeng nodded repeatedly, "I'll go clean up your room. You're not at home, and the place is small. I'll use the place where you slept before for something else."

"It's okay, I can clean it up myself. Mom, you go back and eat first!" Jiang Sui waved his hand and turned around to clean up the room and rest.

After Jiang Sui disappeared, Jiang Rui couldn't help wanting to speak, but Liu Miaofeng quickly shook her head to stop him, and reminded him in a whisper: "Eat, let him think about it, he's not stupid, the city is so good, there's no need for him to stay in the country."

At night, Jiang Rui closed the door after washing his feet and sat on the bed. Tian Xia, who was cutting her nails, came over and asked, "What do you think about your brother's incident?"

"What can I think? Of course it's good to go back to the city. This way, the family will have another high-income earner," Jiang Rui calculated in his mind, "It won't do any harm to me."

Tian Xia's eyes turned around, and she came over and climbed onto Jiang Rui's arm: "I have a cousin from my mother's side, she's also very pretty and well-educated, she graduated from high school! What do you think about me introducing my cousin to Jiang Sui?"

Jiang Rui smiled: "Didn't you see what my brother looked like? He was bewitched by that vixen in the countryside. He even said that his country wife was very beautiful. Can your cousin compare to her?"

Tian Xia was unhappy when she heard this. She raised her hand and patted Jiang Rui: "My cousin is not bad looking, and she has a city hukou. She is much better than your brother marrying a country girl!"

Seeing that his wife was angry, Jiang Rui quickly changed his tone: "Okay, okay, go talk to mom later. If she agrees, then find a chance for my brother and your cousin to meet."

"good!"

The couple decided on their own initiative to find a wife for Jiang Sui.

On the other side, Jiang Sui tossed and turned in bed.

Will Xiang Baiwei be scared living alone when I'm not at home?

Since mother is fine, let's go back early tomorrow morning.

No, we can’t go back too early.

Later, I'll buy some sugar-roasted chestnuts and bring them back for Xiang Baiwei.

In the past, she loved to eat these snacks the most, and then go to the department store to buy a new coat for Xiang Baiwei. Now that the temple fair is coming soon, she will buy her a new dress so that she can wear it to the temple fair.

The next day at noon.

Xiang Baiwei was sitting in the yard, picking up the chestnuts she had brought from the mountain that morning, when she suddenly heard Jiang Sui talking to someone outside the door.

Just as she was surprised, Jiang Sui pushed the door open and handed her two bags: "Weiwei, these are still warm chestnuts, would you like to try some?"

"It smells sweet, is it sugar-roasted chestnuts?" Xiang Baiwei stood up in surprise. After a moment, she smiled helplessly, "This thing is so expensive to buy. I have chestnuts at home. If you like them, I'll fry them for you later. Don't waste money outside."

"This shop has been here since I was a child. The food is delicious. You should try it first." Jiang Sui handed her the bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts as if he were presenting a treasure.

According to her memories from her previous life, Xiang Baiwei used to love eating the sugar-roasted chestnuts from this store.

“It smells so good!”

After tasting the taste she hadn't tasted for a long time, Xiang Baiwei was upset. She didn't want to show any strangeness in front of Jiang Sui, so she changed the subject: "How is your mother? Why did she come back today?"
