Achoo!
Achoo!
"Big brother, brother-in-law, what's wrong with you two? Did you catch a cold?"
In a state-run restaurant, two men and three women were eating when two of the men suddenly sneezed.
The bright-eyed, white-toothed girl was chatting with her sister-in-law and cousin about decorating the house when she was interrupted by two loud sneezes.
"It's nothing, I just choked on the soup."
"Me too, hurry up and eat. We still need to get the bicycle stamped later, so your cousin won't have to rush to catch the military procurement vehicle to work tomorrow."
"Okay, sure."
Xie Lin came in carrying the baby.
"Mommy." A sweet little voice rang out, and the first reaction wasn't to the mother, but to the two who were sneezing.
Why does that sweet, childlike voice sound so familiar?
Look up.
When their eyes met, Shen Yijin and Liu Guodong were both stunned.
It turns out he really is my sister-in-law's friend.
"Old Xie, you just got back? Your wife is back too?" Shen Yijin had a feeling that the sneeze just now was related to his sister-in-law.
Xie Lin raised an eyebrow. "Otherwise what?"
Shen Yijin felt flustered and tentatively asked, "Did my sister-in-law come back to do something important?"
It was a major event, and both those who asked and those who heard it knew perfectly well what it was.
Thinking of the scene at the entrance of the training ground, Xie Lin twitched the corner of his mouth.
"When I came out, she was registering for the exam. I guess you guys are the only ones left. Be proactive, otherwise I can't guarantee you won't lose money."
Even 2 yuan is money.
Shen Yijin and Liu Guodong exchanged a glance, their faces turning pale.
Losing money is a small matter, but losing face is a big deal.
Last time Li Pan was singled out, everyone laughed at him for a long time, and they didn't want to become the laughing stock among their brothers.
"Liu Guodong, stop eating and go get the stamp. I'll pack it up and take it back for you."
"Okay, sure, right away."
"Brother, you guys go straight back after you finish eating. I'll just ride my bike, it'll be super fast."
"Go."
Liu Guodong ran incredibly fast, as if a ghost was chasing him.
"Brother, what's the matter that's so urgent?"
Shen Yimei was puzzled. Why rush when you've only eaten half of your meal?
"Don't ask, just eat."
Shen Yijin quickly finished her own portion and went to buy a lunchbox to pack Liu Guodong's rice and dishes.
Qian Yuanyuan and Shen Nian had already heard of Shishi's reputation in the family compound, so they dared not delay.
After spending some time together, the relationships between the two couples progressed very well.
Two days ago, Grandma Shen called to say that Shen Yijin and Qian Yuanyuan are definitely getting married.
Chen Nian had not yet met Liu Guodong's family, and originally planned to discuss marriage after meeting them.
As a result, Grandma Shen waved her hand and allowed them to participate in the group wedding as well. She personally went to meet the Liu family.
They appreciated the elders' good intentions and agreed.
Both families will be coming on the wedding day. Shen Yimei happened to have a break from her job and came early.
When Deng Yuehong finished her work, her eyes lit up when she saw her beautiful daughter.
"My dear, I miss you so much."
"Mommy, meat."
The chubby girl held the lunchbox tightly until Deng Yuehong reached out to take it from her.
"Comrade Xie, what's this?"
Another guest came in to eat, and she quickly put it aside.
After she finished taking the customers' orders, Xie Lin said:
"Shishi brought back some sweet and sour pork from Mishi. Sister Deng, you're busy, we'll be going now."
"Go, bye-bye." The chubby little girl showed no reluctance towards her mother, waving her little hand resolutely.
Deng Yuehong was both amused and exasperated. "Alright, Mom will come to see you in a couple of days."
That brat, she's given birth to someone else's daughter.
"Comrade Xie, are you in a hurry? If not, come to my house to get some clothes for your daughter. It's getting cold."
“I have clothes. My mother-in-law made some for the children. You can bring them with you when you go.”
Guagua made a whole bunch of clothes, far too many to wear, so she got too lazy to run around and had to rush home for dinner.
The daughter is gone, and the mother has become a stone statue waiting for her daughter.
Chen Nian joked, "Sister Deng, Nannan is doing very well in the family compound, she's even forgotten about her mother."
"That's right, that brat only has eyes for her older brother and sister. Every time we visit her, she hides when we leave, as if we're afraid she'll be taken away with us."
Helpless, Deng Yuehong opened the lunchbox, and the aroma of meat wafted out. She peeled off a few pieces and gave some to Chen Nian.
"You should also try the local delicacies of Haishi."
Shen Yijin had no more rice, so he glanced at the tempting-looking meat, picked up a piece, and put it in his mouth.
The food my sister-in-law brought back tastes just different.
"Thank you, sister. Your daughter is so cute. I thought that guy was your husband. Turns out he's the one who kidnapped your daughter," Shen Yimei teased as she ate.
The person looked somewhat familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen him before.
Deng Yuehong laughed and said, "When you get back and meet the other people, you'll know who kidnapped my daughter."
Those little faces were so pretty, they had her little one completely under their thumb.
Xie Lin brought the kids home, just in time for dinner.
A table of adults, a table of children and chickens—a very harmonious scene.
After eating and drinking my fill, I took a shower and went home.
Zhou Yan stayed in the west room of the Xiao family's house. The west room of the Xie family's house contained Han Shuyun's clothes, so it was not appropriate for him to stay there.
Um?
This person looks familiar.
"Shen Bingshan, what are you doing here? I was thinking of arresting you tomorrow."
The gate to the courtyard opposite Zhang Dong's house was wide open. Shen Yijin was fetching water when he heard a familiar voice. He turned around and saw the person perched on the wall. He quickly raised one hand.
"Sister-in-law, I'm participating, and Guodong is participating too."
I went to find my sister-in-law as soon as I got back, but she was eating, so I had to wait.
Luckily I ran into them, otherwise I would have really embarrassed myself tomorrow.
Really on the road.
Shishi grinned, "Since you want to hug your wife so much, I'll give you a 2 yuan discount. You can pay the fee tomorrow."
