Chapter 313: Eating New Year's Eve Dinner Together
Bai Mei now also understood the composition of the Gu family, and looked at Yan Shaoli with envy in her eyes.
She said silently: "Yue Huai, you are so kind to Shao Li and the others."
To be honest, no one would do anything like making new clothes for the educated youth living in your home.
Although Yan Shaoli and Yan Shaoyang will be Gu Yuehuai's sister-in-law and brother-in-law in the future, she and Yan Shaoyu are not married yet. She is so dedicated that anyone can't help but say "she is a fool".
What if Yan Shaoyu doesn't come back, or if he has a promising future and no longer looks down on her?
Gu Yuehuai chuckled and moved his eyebrows innocently: "Then you are right, I have always been very good to my family."
Her words were quite suggestive, and Bai Mei's face suddenly turned red.
Wang Meihua naturally heard this, and her eyes rolled around. Thinking of the young men in the Gu family, who were all old, she couldn't help but have an idea. Isn't this a coincidence? She also has two daughters, one is married, but there is still a little one!
We are all from the same team and know each other well. The Gu family's conditions seem to be good now. With a capable sister-in-law like Gu Yuehuai, what will they have to worry about in the future?
The more Wang Meihua thought about it, the happier she felt. She said, "Xiao Gu, your elder brother is old enough now. Has he thought about getting married? How about I introduce him to a beautiful girl?"
After these words were spoken, before Gu Yuehuai could react, Bai Mei was the first to tighten her mouth.
She bit her lip and looked at Wang Meihua. Although she knew that this was just her wishful thinking, she felt uncomfortable when she thought that Gu Tinghuai was about to go on a blind date and was being introduced to someone.
Wang Meihua didn't care what Bai Mei thought. She continued, "Xiao Gu, my aunt's daughter Lili is also very pretty. She's nineteen years old and a good match for your brother. How about letting Lili come to your house tonight to see each other? What do you think?"
Gu Yuehuai didn't even raise his head and said calmly: "Thank you, auntie, but my eldest brother is going to have a girlfriend soon."
Hearing this, Bai Mei felt a little relieved, and she looked at Gu Yuehuai with a hint of shyness.
Of course, she knew who Gu Yuehuai was referring to as Gu Tinghuai's "boyfriend". She was not opposed to this new identity, but as a girl, it was not appropriate for her to respond first to such a question. Gu Tinghuai had to speak first.
She likes the atmosphere of Gu's family very much and it is a blessing to be born in such a family.
"Is that so?" Wang Meihua was a little disappointed, but she quickly cheered up and said, "It's okay. Don't we still have your second and third brothers? I think your third brother, Xihuai, is a good man and handsome. He is a perfect match for my Lili!"
Gu Yuehuai raised his eyebrows, straightened up and looked at Wang Meihua: "I'm sorry, auntie, my third brother is still young. Besides, my eldest brother hasn't married yet. It's not right for him to get married earlier than his eldest brother, right?"
She does have a third sister-in-law. Although her third sister-in-law is currently in the capital and the journey is long, she acknowledges this.
Wang Meihua saw that Yue Huai really had no intention of marrying into her family, so she couldn't help but curl her lips and thought to herself, how could a sister-in-law decide her brother's marriage?
She planned to talk to Gu Zhifeng again. As a grown man, he must be worried about the affairs of his children. She just needed to say more good things about Lili and they would be able to arrange a marriage for her. Then, wouldn't her daughter be the one wearing the new coat?
Thinking of this, Wang Meihua suddenly felt refreshed.
She said cheerfully, "Okay, I won't bother you anymore. You guys try it out quickly. If it's not suitable, give it to me before the New Year and I'll revise it for you. I have something else to do at the cotton mill, so I'll be back first."
After saying that, Wang Meihua left in a hurry without waiting for Gu Yuehuai to speak.
Gu Yuehuai looked at her back, frowned slightly, turned around to look at the new clothes on the kang, and sighed.
It is true that money can move people's hearts.
Not long after Wang Meihua left, Yan Shaoli came out after changing his clothes.
The eighteen-year-old girl was wearing a light pink jacket and had a pair of black eyes on her beautiful face. Her cheeks were flushed, perhaps because she was moved or happy, and she exuded a youthful and lively aura.
"Yue Huai, Sister Bai Mei, do you look good?" Yan Shaoli stood in front of the two of them and turned around.
Bai Mei smiled and gave her a thumbs up: "It's beautiful! Look at how beautiful our Shao Li is."
"Really?" Yan Shaoli blinked and looked at Gu Yuehuai again.
Gu Yuehuai chuckled: "Of course, the size fits me and the color matches me too."
Yan Shaoli's eyes suddenly turned into crescents with a smile. He walked forward and touched the other coats on the kang. He said with joy and some worry: "These are very expensive, right? Yue Huai, you spent all your money on us, this..."
She felt very ashamed, as if she had unknowingly become a leech sucking Yue Huai's blood.
"Who cleans the house when I go to work every day? I brought Shaotang back home and I treat her as my own sister, but since you came, have I been less worried? This is all because of you."
"Shao Li, don't deny yourself. Your contribution is indispensable."
Gu Yuehuai comforted him softly and reached out to touch the top of Yan Shaoli's head.
Yan Shaoli felt a soreness in her throat and her eyes turned red. She was so moved that she couldn't help but pout and said with a smile, "You are obviously the same age as me, and you touched my head, taking advantage of me!"
Bai Mei chuckled: "Shao Li, you are wrong. Yue Huai is your sister-in-law, why can't I touch your head?"
After they chatted and laughed for a while, Gu Xihuai woke up.
He unhappily opened the curtain and came out. Just as he was about to complain about how noisy they were, he saw the coat on the kang. His eyes lit up slightly and he asked in surprise, "Is this a new coat? Yue Huai, did you buy it?"
The family hadn't bought new clothes for many years, so when they saw them for the first time, they were really happy.
Gu Yuehuai smiled and said, "Go and try it on. There are still some who are not in trouble. Please help him try it on to see if it fits."
This is her first New Year after her rebirth. She just hopes that everyone can be happy. Now it seems that the clothes were not made in vain. She wears new clothes to welcome the New Year. She hopes that every year in the future can be like this.
"Okay!" Gu Xihuai took the clothes and walked into the inner room with a smile.
Yan Shaoli touched his coat, raised his eyes to look at Bai Mei, and said expectantly: "Sister Bai Mei, can you come over during the Chinese New Year? Let's have a New Year's Eve dinner together and stay up together?"
The Chinese New Year should be a time for family reunions, and she hopes everyone can be together.
Hearing this, Bai Mei's eyes dimmed. She knew in her heart that her parents would never let her leave home to spend the New Year's Eve at someone else's house, but she didn't want to disappoint Yan Shaoli, so she forced a smile and said, "I'll try my best to come."
After that, she changed the subject: "Where's Yue Huai? Your company shouldn't have a holiday, right?"
Gu Yuehuai shrugged: "No, but it's okay, I have no problem having New Year's Eve dinner with you guys."
The significance of the Spring Festival to the Chinese people is self-evident, but now the situation is tense, and the people have responded to the call to "celebrate a revolutionary Spring Festival", which simply means "grasp the revolution and promote production", and not go home during the Spring Festival, "don't stop fighting on the 30th, and keep working on the first day!"
