Xiao Jinchu and Yan Shuhua were holding hands the whole time.

It was snowing in such a cold winter, which was actually very touching. However, when Yan Shuhua held his hand like this, she didn't feel cold at all. On the contrary, she felt particularly warm in her heart.

"Jinchu, I really hope that we can have time to come here and play every six months. Look, it's so lively." Yan Shuhua was not a person who liked traveling, but when that person turned out to be Xiao Jinchu, she fell in love with it. She liked the feeling of traveling to all the beautiful scenery in the world with the man she loved most.

"It will definitely be like this in the future." Xiao Jinchu made a promise that he would devote his entire life to.

After visiting the tourist attractions, the two of them went to Tang's house again. This time, the first person they saw at the door of Tang's house was Tang Lele, who was in a very miserable state because he had been beaten.

When Tang Lele saw the two of them, an expression of extreme hatred appeared on his face.

"This is my home and you are not welcome here." Tang Lele directly ordered them to leave.

Tang Lele really looks like a person who is a bully at home but a coward outside. Just now, so many people bullied him outside, but he didn't dare to fight back at all. As soon as he came back, he acted like a bully again.

"When that group of people beat you just now, why didn't you have the spirit and courage you have now?" Xiao Jinchu said this with a hint of sarcasm. Tang Lele felt embarrassed. "Whatever I want to do, it's none of your business. Don't come into my house!"

The reason why Tang Lele dislikes Shen Hongmei so much is all because his relatives always spread rumors in many ways, saying that if his father finds a stepmother, she will definitely take away all his family's property, and then he will become an orphan.

Besides, he had no contact with his mother since he was a child. His mother died when he was very young, so he had no idea what the concept of a mother was, and he didn't want anyone to come and act as a matchmaker for his father.

When Old Tang saw his son making trouble again, he angrily picked up the broom and told him to get out of the way.

"If mom were still alive, you definitely wouldn't treat me like this."

"Why don't you understand?"

Tang Lele had already been wronged outside, and when he came back he was treated like this by his father. He must be unhappy and ran out of the door directly. Old Tang didn't care about him because this bastard son had indeed done too many bastard things.

Old Tang finally had the opportunity to get along with Shen Hongmei, but his son just wanted to make trouble on purpose.

"It's all my fault that I didn't take good care of my son. Besides, he didn't have a mother to take care of him since he was young, so he became like this." The old man felt really embarrassed. After all, Shen Hongmei was the person he wanted to be with, but he let her see such a bastard son. He didn't know if she would agree.

"Mom, how was your chat with Uncle Tang?"

Shen Hongmei had no expression of happiness or displeasure on her face, neither happy nor angry, which made Yan Shuhua confused. Could it be that the two of them had a bad chat? She just said she wanted to go back.

"I have several bottles of good wine in my room. You can take them back with you." Old Tang took out the things enthusiastically.

In the past, when Old Tang gave gifts to Shen Hongmei, Shen Hongmei would immediately give things to Old Tang after returning, as if she was returning a favor, and there was a feeling of reciprocity. But this time she directly refused, and refused mercilessly.

"Old Tang, you should keep these things for yourself. You have so many relatives, and you people from the north must love to drink. I'll take these things back with me. My mother and I don't drink, and Jinchu doesn't drink either, so they're useless."

Shen Hongmei's tone, not sure if it was because of her unhappy tone, made Old Tang a little panicked.

"Hongmei, did I do something today to make you unhappy?" After all, Old Tang had never spent too much time with women, so he didn't know what women were thinking. Shen Hongmei was someone he felt was particularly important the first time he saw her, so as an honest man, he would take the initiative to ask her out.

He is indeed old now and can't say anything sweet, but he can guarantee that he will be happy all his life and that she will have no worries about food and clothing.

However, Shen Hongmei's ex-husband was the mayor, and this matter was a knot in his heart. After all, the first person he dated was a scholar, and he had not read much and could only butcher pigs. Who knew if he would like him?

When Old Tang thought about this, he felt quite panicked. He used to think that the two of them were a good match, but now he felt more and more that he was not worthy of Shen Hongmei.

"Let's go back today. After all, it's New Year's Day. Your pig slaughtering business would be better. We can't delay your business." Shen Hongmei asked him not to send her back.

"If you are upset because of what those relatives said, don't take it to heart. After all, they are all my relatives. People in our area speak like that. They are open and honest. They say what they think without beating around the bush. I hope you..."

Yan Shuhua watched them leave just now, and the two of them went to wash the dishes together. How did it suddenly become like this? What happened during this period of time? Yan Shuhua was so curious that he wanted to find a chance to ask her, but there was no chance at all because Shen Hongmei pulled her away.

"Mom, what happened between you and Uncle Tang? Weren't you all fine just now?"

Shen Hongmei didn't say a word or sigh along the way, as if she was trapped in her own world. Her silence made Yan Shuhua a little worried and afraid. Would those relatives bully her when they left?

Shen Hongmei suddenly took out a gold ring box from her pocket.

"This is..." Yan Shuhua was surprised when he saw it, "Could Uncle Tang have proposed to you?"

"No, this belongs to his ex-wife." Shen Hongmei smiled bitterly.

"Then why did I give it to you?"

"He didn't give it to me either. Instead, he told me some things about his ex-wife. It really made me sad." Shen Hongmei listened to what he said as if she was deeply touched, which made her feel bad all of a sudden.
