Chapter 370 You just keep talking, I'll come
As soon as Mrs. Qiu entered the yard, she took off the straw hat on her head.
When the Fu family heard the noise outside, they all stood up.
Xia Qiu smiled and said, "It's my mother-in-law. Someone must have gone to the field to call for help."
After saying that, he smiled, opened the bamboo curtain and walked out: "Mom, this is my sister's boyfriend and his family. They came to our house today to propose marriage. It just so happened that Yancheng's younger sister was an educated youth in our farm, so they stopped by on the way."
As soon as Mrs. Qiu saw how the Qiu family were dressed, she realized that this family was not simple, after all, everyone had four pockets.
She greeted him with a smile: "Did you pour me some water?"
Xia Qiu smiled and said, "I haven't had time to pour it yet."
Mother Qiu put down her straw hat, washed her hands in the water drying nearby and said, "You stay with me and talk. I'll do it."
While wiping his hands, he said, "There is a thermos in your sister-in-law's room, which was just filled with hot water at noon."
After that, he smiled at the Qiu family and said, "Please sit inside. I'll go get you some water."
Mother Fu said hurriedly, "We are not thirsty, don't bother."
Mother Qiu threw the towel she used to dry her hands onto the clothesline and said, "That won't do. You are guests when you come in, let alone honored guests. You should at least have a bowl of water."
He turned to look at his daughter-in-law and said, "Old man, go back to the house and sit down to talk. I'll be right there."
Afterwards, he hurried into the kitchen and took out the sugar jar, then went into his youngest son's room to get the thermos and teacups, and then went to Xia Qiu's room.
A spoonful of sugar was placed in the cup in a very generous manner: "Chuxue girl is a good girl, she is very kind to my sister Xia Qiu."
Mother Fu smiled and continued, "Sisters should take care of each other."
Mother Qiu poured a glass of water, and Xia Qiu took it and handed it to the Fu family: "Uncle, drink some water/Aunt, drink some water"
Mother Fu was now even more satisfied with Chu Xue. If she was a bad person, her sister's mother-in-law would never praise her so much, let alone receive them with such high standards.
After all, brown sugar requires sugar coupons, which are precious things these days, not only in the countryside but also in the city.
Seeing that Mother Qiu was about to pour water into the next cup, Mother Fu quickly stopped her and said, "We are really not thirsty. Stop it."
After learning that the daughter of the Fu family was an educated youth at home, she said, "Wan girl, we are formal relatives. Feel free to come over if you have any problems in the future."
After a brief greeting, the Fu family did not stay here for long.
After seeing off the Chuan family, Mother Qiu saw the things in her eldest daughter-in-law's room and smacked her lips: "Wow, this is really generous. It seems that the Fu family likes your sister very much, otherwise they wouldn't have brought you these precious things."
Xia Qiu smiled faintly and said, "Of course I value you, but I'm afraid it's probably because of Yan Wan. I can't get carried away."
When Mother Qiu heard what her daughter-in-law said, she laughed and said, "That's right."
After saying that, he couldn't help but look up at his eldest daughter-in-law. He was very satisfied and glanced out the window: "Put things away quickly. Everyone should be back from work soon."
Xia Qiu knew exactly what her mother-in-law meant.
Although the two families have separated now, it is impossible not to work together as long as grandma is around.
The eldest wife is very anxious about the second cousin's health. If she knew that she got so many good things today, you can imagine what will happen.
So the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law got busy. They put away all the malted milk and peach cakes given by the Fu family, leaving only two cans. In addition, they only put away a small part of the fruits and vegetables from the Liu family, and left most of them outside. After all, when the Fu family came, there were so many people watching outside.
