As the Chinese New Year approached, the textile factory finally closed on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Damao's family and Erni's sister all returned to the Dongfeng Brigade, but Dong Sisi, who had agreed to come with Li Mingxi, did not come back.
Therefore, looking at Sister Erni who was talking to her grandmother, Li Mingxi asked directly.
"Sister Erni, I want to ask you something?"
Erni looked at Li Mingxi in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"It's my friend Dong Sisi. She told me before that she would come to our house to celebrate the New Year after your factory closed for the holidays. But now that you're all back, she didn't come. What's going on?"
When Erni heard Li Mingxi's words, Dong Sisi's face appeared in her mind.
To be honest, my cousin's friend is really beautiful.
But she never told me about this!
Therefore, Erni spoke directly.
"No, I don't know!"
Li Mingxi was a little disappointed when he heard Erni's answer.
Dong Sisi had clearly told her before that she would come over during the Chinese New Year!
Erni looked at Li Mingxi's expression and knew that she was in a low mood, so she quickly spoke to comfort her.
"Maybe she was held up by something. Someone in our department didn't go home today and plans to go back tomorrow after finishing her work!"
Hearing this, Li Mingxi's expression looked better.
It’s almost New Year’s Eve, the day for posting Spring Festival couplets.
Because Dong Sisi still didn't come, Li Mingxi's face looked particularly ugly these two days.
As a result, Li Mingde didn't dare to speak loudly in front of her, for fear that he would be beaten by her if he was not careful.
"Xiao Xi!"
Li Mingxi was sitting at the door in a daze, and in a trance he seemed to hear Dong Sisi's voice.
I thought to myself, maybe I was hallucinating? That can’t be possible!
Just when Li Mingxi was doubting again, Dong Sisi's voice rang out again.
"Xiao Xi!"
This time, Li Mingxi was very sure that he had not heard wrong.
After hearing the sound, he immediately raised his head.
Then, he saw Dong Sisi standing at the door of his house, looking at him with a smile.
As soon as she saw Dong Sisi, Li Mingxi immediately smiled, but when she thought about the fact that Dong Sisi had not appeared for the past two days, she became very angry.
Immediately, he put on a sour face and ignored Dong Sisi.
As soon as Dong Sisi saw Li Mingxi's expression, she knew that she was angry with her, so she quickly started to coax her.
"Oh, I've been so busy these past two days. Now that I'm finally done, I rushed over!"
"I rode for almost two hours in the middle of winter, braving the freezing wind, to get here, and someone actually ignored me!"
"Look, I'd better go!"
Dong Sisi said this and was about to walk out!
How could Li Mingxi let her go? She just blamed Dong Sisi for not coming earlier.
As soon as she saw someone about to leave, she quickly stepped forward to stop him.
But he still insisted, "You can't leave. Why can you leave when I'm so angry?"
Dong Sisi didn't say anything, just watched Li Mingxi perform with a smile.
Sure enough, after a while, Li Mingxi spoke again.
"Oh, oh, never mind. Since you're here, I won't be angry anymore!"
Dong Sisi knew that Li Mingxi would be like this, and she smiled at her.
Niu Cuihua stood aside for a while, and when she saw that her granddaughter was no longer angry, she quickly stepped forward and spoke to Li Mingxi.
"Okay, now that we're all here, let's go inside!"
As he spoke, he was about to pull Dong Sisi in.
When Li Mingxi heard this, he was about to take Dong Sisi in.
"OK!"
As Dong Sisi spoke, she pushed the cart inside.
Only then did Li Mingxi and Niu Cuihua realize that there were a lot of things hanging on Dong Sisi's bicycle.
Needless to say, these things are definitely for home.
Sure enough, as soon as the car was parked, Dong Sisi started speaking.
"Grandma, these are some of the things I brought, please don't mind!"
How could Niu Cuihua accept Dong Sisi's things? Besides, it was her granddaughter's idea to have her come over for the New Year, so how could she let her spend money?
Therefore, she directly refused, "You can come by yourself, why bring anything? We have everything at home!"
"You can't say that, grandma. It's Chinese New Year, and it's such a hassle for me to come to your house. I'd feel bad if I didn't bring you something!"
Li Mingxi was listening on the side and was unwilling.
"Hey, no, Dong Sisi, what do you mean? Didn't I say you just need to show up? Who asked you to bring anything?"
Dong Sisi looked at Li Mingxi and spoke slowly.
"Okay, if you don't want it, then I won't bother you anymore. I'll leave now!"
Dong Sisi said this and was about to take her things and leave.
"Okay, we want it!"
When Dong Sisi heard what Li Mingxi said, she burst out laughing.
"That's right. How can you visit someone's home and not take anything?"
"Tell me, if your family doesn't want these things, then if someone else lives in your house all day, how much of your food would they have to eat?"
Li Mingxi knew that what she said made sense, but this was only Dong Sisi. If it were someone else, who would let them come to their house?
Niu Cuihua spoke only after she saw that the two children had resolved the issue.
"Okay, Xiaoxi, stop talking. Since Sisi is here, you have to stay at home for a few more days."
"Okay, go play in Xiaoxi's room. I'll go to the kitchen to see what's cooking. We'll have a good meal at noon!"
After Niu Cuihua finished speaking, she took out some melon seeds and candies from the room and turned into the kitchen.
When Li Mingxi saw his grandmother enter the kitchen, he pulled Dong Sisi back to the room.
"Xiao Xi, how about we go to the kitchen and see if we can help!"
Dong Sisi always felt that she was a guest here, and if she didn't work, she would feel something was wrong.
Therefore, he spoke these words.
Li Mingxi naturally knew what she was thinking, thinking about Dong Sisi's previous experience.
She knew that if she told her not to go, she would definitely feel bad.
So she pulled Dong Sisi to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, Zhang Huilan and Niu Cuihua were cooking, and the twin brothers who had been drafted into the army were cooking in the kitchen.
Li Mingde was holding the meat he had just secretly taken in his mouth.
When he saw Li Mingxi coming in, he was so scared that he almost dropped the meat on the ground.
If Li Mingyi had not been quick enough to catch it with his hands, the meat would have fallen to the ground by now.
Without time to think, Li Mingde spoke first.
"Sister, why are you here?"
He was afraid that Li Mingxi was here to cause trouble for him.
Li Mingxi looked at his younger brother and asked cheerfully.
"Why can't I come? What's the matter? You are allowed to eat here secretly, but I, your sister, am not allowed to come over?"
When Li Mingde heard what Li Mingxi said and looked at her stern face, he quickly started to explain.
"No, no, how could that be? Isn't that weird?"
