Ye Lian wiped her tears and said, "You come to coax me again, I won't talk to you anymore."
She looked at Fu Huaiyi and said, "Son-in-law, you tell me."
Fu Huaiyi was overwhelmed by the favor. Has he passed the hurdle of no acquaintance without fighting?
"Mom, I'm watching. Nothing will happen."
Ye Lian: “…” That’s it?
These two kids have bigger ideas than each other.
"Okay, sit down first. You must have come such a long way. Sit down for a while. We'll have the fish and meat for dinner in the evening. I'll stew the chicken for lunch."
Lin Dawei also went to the kitchen to help.
At this time, Fu Huaiyi asked Lin Yuyao in a low voice, "Do you think I have passed the test of our parents?"
"not yet."
"not yet?"
"Well, didn't I tell you that it only counts if you eat the poached eggs?"
Fu Huaiyi nodded repeatedly, "Okay, eat the poached eggs."
I saw all the vegetables and meat on the table, but I didn't see any fried eggs.
Fu Huaiyi frowned slightly.
Ye Lian saw her son-in-law looking around and frowned.
"Not to your taste?"
"No, it's to my taste."
Ye Lian smiled and handed him a chicken leg. "Eat it quickly."
"Hey, thank you, mom."
I happened to see an egg that had never seen the light of day in the bowl of chicken soup.
He quickly picked up the egg and said with a smile, "I like eating eggs."
Ye Lian and Lin Dawei also understood and grasped his hint instantly.
Lin Dawei: "Where are the eggs?"
Ye Lian smiled and said, "Look at me, I forgot such a big thing. You eat first, our afternoon tea today is eggs."
Lin Yuyao secretly kicked him under the table, thinking that his hint was too obvious.
No one is urging you to eat eggs.
After dinner, Lin Yuyao helped Ye Lian clean up the dishes, and Fu Huaiyi continued to unpack the gifts she had not finished opening.
At that time, I was worried that I might accidentally drop it on the road, so I tied everything to the trailer very tightly.
Originally he wanted to cut it open directly with a knife, but his father-in-law said that the rope was a good one and very strong, and it would be convenient to use it to tie things in the future, so he insisted on untying it slowly.
It took them a while to untie it.
At this time, Ye Lian and Lin Yuyao both came out of the kitchen.
"This rope is good, strong, and can be used to tie food. Xiaofu, you don't want it anymore, right?"
Unexpectedly, the father-in-law was interested in his rope.
"No need, you guys carry the food."
All the things were unloaded. Ye Lian and Lin Dawei did not look at the packages. Instead, they were interested in his ropes and welded trailers.
Lin Dawei asked: "This car is not bad, where did you buy it?"
“I didn’t buy this, I made it myself.”
"You made this yourself?"
"Yes, I went to a junkyard and got two wheels and some discarded steel bars, then welded them together myself."
After hearing this, the two looked at each other and raised their thumbs.
Ye Lian said, "Xiao Fu is a capable guy who knows how to live. This is a good way to recycle waste. Look at how nice this car is."
Lin Dawei took it in his hand and tried it out, praising it, "Good, very sturdy. I think it can carry 200 kilograms of grain."
Hearing what they said, Fu Huaiyi said, "This car is used to carry these luggages. It is of no use now. If parents like, they can use it to carry food."
Lin Dawei was overjoyed. "Okay, then it's mine. You know what, I actually have some stuff to bring back. The dirt road over there is by the chicken coop, and your mother always complains that it's too rotten. I have to go and bring back some bags of cement."
Ye Lian said, "You've been saying this for a few days. Go quickly."
"I was planting rice a few days ago. I've never had time to spare. I'm going now."
When Fu Huaiyi heard this, he thought that he had some strong work to do, so he said very tactfully, "Dad, I'll go with you."
"become."
As soon as they left, Ye Lian took Lin Yuyao aside to talk to her in private.
"Have you decided on this person?"
Lin Yuyao nodded.
"That's good too. Although there were some misunderstandings when we first met, what he said makes sense. It's called fate that comes after fighting. I think he treats you well and is very good at dealing with people. Look at how many things he bought. He's much better than Lu Jiangting in the next village.
Every time Lu Jiangting came to our house, he either brought two bags of fruit candies or two cabbages. You said that his family was poor, but that was enough. I understand. We never let them suffer any loss. Your father and I helped them a lot when he was studying. But what happened later? He made money, but he still brought two bags of fruit candies. It was disgusting just to look at. "
When her daughter wanted to marry him, Ye Lian made excuses for him, saying that he knew how to live and would not waste money.
Now that things have gotten to this point, being stingy is just being stingy, there is no excuse.
Lin Yuyao said, "Let's not talk about him. Anyway, he and Fang Qing are married, and everyone is happy."
Ye Lian was startled, "Did he really marry that widow?"
Lin Yuyao asked in confusion: "Don't you know?"
"No one told me, how would I know?"
Lin Yuyao took a deep breath and said, "I thought his father and his eldest sister had told him about it after they came back."
"That's bullshit. They went to South City to persuade her. Neighbors asked them how their persuasion went, but both father and daughter kept their mouths shut and refused to say a word. I guess their persuasion didn't work, but I didn't expect they're already married."
"It's over. It ended last month."
"Well, that's good, so as not to harm the daughter of a good family."
Lin Yuyao pulled Ye Lian aside and said, "Mom, come and see what I bought for you."
"Okay, let me see what's available."
There were several large packages, and she thought most of them were their clothes and personal belongings.
Unexpectedly, they each brought one set, and the rest were all gifts for them.
"Why buy so many things?"
Lin Yuyao showed them to her one by one, "He bought them all. Look at these."
Ye Lian looked at the pile of things, including cigarettes, wine, cakes and candies. What was the tree root? And what about the piece of floral cloth?
This half elbow looks really delicious.
"Why buy so much?"
"I don't know."
"Don't you know you're all together? You don't even know you're holding on, making others spend money."
She looked carefully at them and said, "It's obviously not cheap. I wonder how much it cost."
"He bought some when I was at work. He said it wasn't much, but it was a traditional way to buy these in his hometown."
"The gifts from their hometown are quite generous, so we should give them a generous return gift."
This... seems to be the case.
"What is this floral fabric for?"
Looking at the floral cloth, Lin Yuyao held her forehead and said, "He said he didn't know what kind of clothes you like, so he bought this floral cloth for you to make it yourself."
Ye Lian: "How can I do this? When I sewed the crotch of your father's pants, he complained that the stitches were too sparse."
"Take it back to town and have it made by a tailor."
"That's OK."
"What about this? Why is there still a root?"
"This is not a tree root, this is ginseng."
This is something from the north. Ye Lian has never seen it, but has heard of it.
