State-owned hotel.
Jiang Wang held Ye Hanhan with one hand and held the things he had just bought at the supply and marketing cooperative with the other hand and sat down at the table.
He asked Ye Xuanhan to order the food first, and then he went to the guesthouse to bring Grandpa Jiang and others over.
Yun'an County is located in the Central Plains, not far from the capital, so Ye Hanhan was not worried that the food would not suit his grandparents' taste, so he ordered two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, plus a serving of boiled noodles.
The waiter took the money and food coupons, took the menu into the kitchen, and handed the menu to Pei Huaijing.
"Huai Jing, someone outside ordered some food and put it here for you."
"Hey," Pei Huaijing was busy, he looked up and responded softly.
When Jiang Wang brought Grandpa Jiang and the other two over, the food had not yet been served. Ye Han stood up and wanted to greet the two elderly people and his aunt.
Unexpectedly, Grandma Jiang rushed to Ye Yanhan's side as if she had the wind under her feet. "Girl, just sit down and we can entertain ourselves."
...
...
Ye Xuanhan enjoyed the fact that he didn't need any care, but after meeting Grandma Jiang's eyes and seeing the concern in her eyes, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
Jiang Wang's grandparents and aunt are the people who have been the best to her since she came into this world. Apart from Jiang Wang, she couldn't refuse everyone's kindness to her.
Soon, the food was served. Ye Han was afraid that the food was too greasy and would make the two elderly people unable to eat, so he specifically ordered some relatively light dishes in the restaurant.
Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang had good appetites. They took seven or eight bites of food in a row and kept praising the food in Yun'an County for being delicious.
Aunt Jiang Yue smiled and said, "Although Yun'an County is not as good as the capital, the chef's craftsmanship is really good. I have been here for a day and I don't want to leave."
These words seemed to resonate with Grandma Jiang.
"Yeah, this place is pretty good. It would be nice if I could stay here for a while longer."
Others didn't understand, but Grandpa Jiang understood the meaning of the words.
The old lady in the family is reluctant to leave her grandson's wife and wants to stay here for a while longer.
But they are not locals, and the letters of introduction they hold have a time limit. If they do not leave on time, they will be treated as vagrants and arrested and thrown into a shelter.
"Old woman, stop talking nonsense. Where are you going to live if you stay?"
Grandma Jiang smiled awkwardly, "I was just joking, you old man, you have no sense of humor at all."
The two old men had a quarrel, and then made up as before.
The four people were talking and eating.
I only ate half of it after most people around me had left.
When Pei Huaijing finished his work in the kitchen and brought out a bowl of noodles, he saw Ye Hanhan sitting with four strangers.
The man next to her looked to be in his early twenties, and both his appearance and temperament were a good match for Ye Hanhan.
He should be Ye Xuanhan’s husband.
Thinking about the time when Ye Hanhan went to the clinic to see a doctor without anyone accompanying him, Pei Huaijing felt uncomfortable.
He felt a little sorry for the girl Ye Xuanhan.
If Ye Xuanhan's husband was him...
"Huai Jing, what are you thinking about? Hurry up and eat. After eating, go back and rest for a while."
The waiter interrupted Pei Huaijing's thoughts.
At the same time, it also attracted Ye Xuanhan's attention. She looked at Pei Huaijing, whom she hadn't seen for a few days, stretched out her hand and greeted him openly.
Pei Huaijing nodded, then sat down at the innermost table with a somewhat depressed look.
Ye Xuanhan and others did not notice Pei Huaijing's abnormality, but Jiang Wang noticed it.
His eyes darkened, and he put two or three pieces of meat into Ye Hanhan's bowl, "Wife, eat more."
Ye Xuanhan looked at Jiang Wang with a smile, pouting his lips slightly, "No, I will get fat if I eat more."
Jiang Wang did not reply, but glanced at Pei Huaijing. Seeing the other's even stiffer back, Jiang Wang's mouth curled up.
After dinner, Ye Xuanhan and Jiang Wang discussed taking their grandparents around for a walk.
Although their main purpose of coming to Yun'an County was to see her, she still wanted her grandparents to experience the local customs and culture of Yuan'an County and have more fun.
Yuan'an County is a small place the size of a palm, and there is nothing to see, so the group wandered around for two or three hours and then went home.
Grandma Jiang said she didn't want to stay in the guesthouse at all and said she wanted to go back and live with Ye Hanhan.
When Jiang Yue heard this, she also said that she wanted to talk to Ye Xuanhan. After all, they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
But Ye Xuanhan's house only has two rooms, which can't accommodate so many people.
Finally, after some discussion, they decided to let Jiang Wang and Grandpa Jiang stay in the guesthouse, while the three women stayed in Ye Xuanhan's home.
Jiang Wang, who was forced to move to the guesthouse, felt helpless. He never dreamed that his grandmother and aunt would be the ones who took away his wife.
There is no way, my wife is so popular that I can't hide her.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wang thought of Pei Huaijing whom he met in the morning, and his heart felt a little sour.
He had only been away for more than two months, and someone had already set his sights on his wife. It seemed that he would have to work hard and try to be promoted to company commander before his and Ye Hanhan's child was born.
Then I can take my wife to the army.
…
Jiang Wang first sent Grandpa Jiang back to the guesthouse, and then took Ye Hanhan, Grandma Jiang and Jiang Yue back to the Huaihua Brigade.
Along the way, the three of them were talking and laughing.
When passing by the cowshed, Grandma Jiang looked at it from a distance and then her eyes became a little dazed.
Ye Xuanhan was attentive and was the first to notice Grandma Jiang's abnormality, so he asked, "Grandma, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just thought the guy carrying water over there looked like a friend of mine."
When Ye Hanhan looked over, he saw Grandma Meng carrying two wooden barrels on her thin shoulders and staggering towards the cowshed.
Ye Xuanhan's mind moved, as if he thought of something.
But we were outside now, not a good place to talk, so I kept my mouth shut and waited until I got home to ask Grandma Jiang what was going on.
Jiang Wang sent the three people home and went to the kitchen to cook.
He prepared to cook for Ye Xuanhan and the other two, then took two lunch boxes to buy food, and then went to the guesthouse to eat cold rice with his grandfather who had the same illness as him.
Ye Xuanhan entered the house and remembered Grandma Jiang's hesitant and excited expression, so he asked tentatively: "Grandma, do you know Grandma Meng too?"
Grandma Meng and Old Wang both used to live in the capital, so it wouldn't be surprising if they really knew each other.
When Grandma Jiang heard what Ye Hanhan said, she stood up and asked, "Han girl, is her last name Meng?"
"Yes, Grandma, Grandma Meng and Old Wang were all brought to our brigade for reform. They suffered a lot in the first two years."
"What?" Grandma Jiang gritted her teeth, then thought that her action might scare Ye Hanhan, so she reluctantly sat down on the stool and gave a stiff smile.
