She had a better background than Sun Yuegui, and married a better wife than Sun Yuegui. Even after the natural disaster, she was one of the few people who could eat apples because of Xia Guokang's work in the public sector. She didn't expect that when she came here today, she found that Sun Yuegui was living a better life than her!
Wu Min lowered her head, trying her best to hide the jealousy and hatred in her eyes.
Wu Jianing had been looking at the peaches and pineapples in the fruit bowl since she entered the room. She hadn't eaten peaches and pineapples for a long time! She wanted to eat a peach, but she was afraid that Xia Shige would look down on her, so she could only grit her teeth, struggling internally.
After Xia Guokang finished two glasses of orange juice, he suddenly felt that the biscuits and noodles he brought were not presentable enough, and he felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
Xia Guokang had also been in the officialdom before, so he quickly adjusted his mood and changed his usual cold attitude. He greeted Sun Yuegui politely, "Sister-in-law is getting younger and younger. By the way, aren't brother and sister home?"
"Your elder brother and Huiyin are busy. I have already told them and they said they will come at noon." Sun Yuegui replied.
"It's okay, it's okay. Let them finish their work and come back!" Xia Guokang said with a smile. Then he started talking to Xia Shige again and asked him carefully about his recent situation, including whether he had found a job and whether he had a boyfriend.
Xia Shige felt that the way the couple looked at her was strange, but she didn't say anything and just answered perfunctorily. She wanted to see what the couple was up to.
Soon it was noon and Xia Huiyin and Xia Guocheng arrived.
"Brother and sister are here." Xia Guokang hurried over to greet them.
Xia Guocheng didn't have a good impression of his younger brother. When he was a child, he was often cheated by Xia Guokang.
Xia Guokang was playful. One time, he poisoned the sheep in his family with herbicides and framed Xia Guocheng, who was severely beaten.
Xia Guocheng forced a smile at Xia Guokang and nodded.
Xia Huiyin also didn't like this second brother. Xia Guokang didn't like to belittle her. When he learned that she was divorced, he called her and scolded her, saying that she was an abandoned woman and that she was embarrassing him. He also asked her why she didn't commit suicide to prove her innocence.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Seeing Xia Guokang's smiling face, Xia Huiyin also greeted him reluctantly.
"Now that you're here, let's eat first!" Sun Yuegui greeted everyone.
Today's lunch included roasted pork belly, stewed chicken with lettuce, stir-fried lamb, eight-treasure duck, cola chicken wings, and a few stir-fried vegetables, filling the table.
Xia Guokang's family of three was stunned. After the natural disaster, they had never eaten such a decent meal again. Although Xia Guokang had a welfare from his company, he could eat some vegetables from time to time, but the quantity was very small, so he had to live frugally and ate rice, noodles and canned food most of the time.
I didn’t expect that my older brother and older sister could have so many dishes in one meal!
After everyone was seated, Wu Jianing had lost the reserved attitude she had when she first arrived. She picked up several chicken wings in one breath and started eating them in big mouthfuls.
Wu Min also kept putting food into her mouth. It had been a long time since she had eaten so many vegetables and fresh meat in one go. She didn't even care about biting her tongue in her haste.
Xia Guokang even ate four bowls of rice in one go, and he even secretly added a few buckles to his belt so that he could eat more.
Almost all the food on the table was eaten up by Xia Guokang's family of three. Xia Shige and the others were shocked by the way they ate. Xia Shige had only eaten half a bowl of rice when there was no more food on the table.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Xia Guokang's family of three sat on the sofa and rubbed their stomachs contentedly, because they hadn't eaten such a sumptuous meal for a long time, and they felt dizzy from eating so much.
Wu Min tugged at Xia Guokang's sleeve and winked at him. Xia Guokang was stunned. His mind was full of the meal he had just eaten and he almost forgot why he came here.
Xia Guokang coughed and prepared to get to the point. He looked at Xia Shige and the others and said, "Shige is old enough now. It's time for her to have a boyfriend. We came here today to find a marriage for Shige."
Xia Huiyin and the others were stunned: "Marriage?"
