It is already late autumn, and there is not much activity in the fields, but the villagers still gather in groups of three or four to chat.
"Oh! Who is this? Isn't this Chen Lei from Jianhua's family?" A voice came, but Chen Lei saw that the person who spoke was Aunt Gu.
She was the first to see Chen Lei, and she shouted with a shrill voice and a look of joy. When everyone heard the voice, they looked up and rushed over.
Chen Lei is now very different from the past. Although his clothes still look a bit plain, his clothing taste has improved. He is wearing a suit and carrying a lot of things in his hands. He is accompanied by a graceful and beautiful girl.
"Chen Lei, are you bringing your wife back?" Some people started to make a noise.
"Yes!" Chen Lei did not hide it, took out some candies from his pocket and began to share them with everyone. These candies were bought in the city, and they could not get such good candies in their village.
This candy can also be regarded as shutting their mouths! For a while, they stopped talking about Chen Lei's wife and started talking about candy. After Chen Lei and his friends left, they could still hear this group of people saying: "Chen Lei is really promising now, and he is a decent person."
In a short while, we arrived home.
Chen Lei's house was renovated in recent years, just to find a wife for him. In the past, people looked down on his house because it was shabby, and no woman wanted to be with him. So Chen Jianhua was so angry that he renovated the house.
Standing at the gate, Xiaofang felt a mixture of emotions. If she followed Chen Lei from now on, then this house would also be her home.
Home! For her, it was a luxury and a demanding thing.
Now, Xiaofang is very satisfied to have such a warm home.
When I entered the yard, Li Ping was sitting on a small stool, washing clothes in a large iron basin.
"Mom!" Chen Lei greeted.
Li Ping heard the voice and looked up, only to see that it was Chen Lei who had returned. She quickly put down the clothes in her hands and ran over excitedly.
"Leilei, why are you back? Look at what he's wearing... My son has become successful."
Li Ping hadn't seen Chen Lei for a long time, and she naturally missed him very much. For a moment, she didn't notice Xiaofang following her.
"Hello, Auntie!" Xiaofang suppressed her inner anxiety and greeted her gracefully.
At this moment, Li Ping noticed Xiaofang and turned her gaze towards her, examining her for a long time with a look of surprise. After a while, she finally came to her senses and turned to look at Chen Lei and asked:
"Who is this?"
"Xiaofang." Chen Lei introduced.
In reality, Li Ping already knew the truth. Chen Lei had mentioned it in his letter, but he had always felt that it would be difficult for his son to find a wife. In the village, who among the average-sized families hadn't rejected her son for various reasons?
People always said her son was stupid, but now it seems that her son is a fool with good fortune.
The girl in front of her was not only beautiful, but also well-dressed, a city girl. Seeing Xiaofang, Li Ping was extremely satisfied.
"Oh! It's Xiaofang! Leilei mentioned her in the letter. Come in quickly."
Li Ping said, and quickly reached out to take the things in Xiaofang's hand: "Look, you're here, why are you bringing so many things?"
"Where's my dad?"
Li Ping enthusiastically pulled Chen Lei and Xiaofang into the house. Chen Lei looked around, but didn't see Chen Jianhua. Li Ping quickly brewed a pot of tea, poured a cup for Xiaofang, and said, "Your father has gone to play cards with your uncle. I'll go get him back."
After Li Ping finished speaking, she hurried out.
I went straight to Chen Jianguo's house, but saw six people sitting around a table, playing Gou Ji.
"Okay, stop fighting. Leilei is back." Li Ping started shouting as soon as she entered the door.
Chen Jianhua looked up at Li Ping and saw that she was in a hurry. After playing a hand of cards, he responded, "I'm back, so what? Why are you so excited?"
"He's back with his wife." Li Ping's eyes lit up when she said this: "He's so handsome! Hurry up, Xixi Yudu is here, and as a father-in-law, you can't not show up."
When Chen Jianhua heard that he had brought his wife back, he was very happy. He quickly put down the cards in his hand and said cheerfully: "Hey, no more playing, no more playing."
"Jianhua, wait a minute, I'll go with you." Chen Jianguo also put down the cards in his hand. He was very curious about what the wife Chen Lei was looking for would look like.
Ever since Chen Lei wrote to her last time, Li Ping has been telling everyone that Chen Lei has found a wife from the city and that he has become successful.
This publicity made everyone in the village very curious.
After Chen Jianguo said this, Chen Jianguang also became interested and quickly stood up and said, "I'll go too, I'll go too."
"Come back!" Zhao Ling yelled. Chen Jianguo stopped and turned around and said with some dissatisfaction: "What are you doing!"
"Really? This is the first time the new bride comes to visit. There's no reason for you grown men to gather around and watch. If anyone wants to go, I'll go!" Zhao Ling pulled Chen Jianguo back and went with Li Ping.
Coincidentally, I met Liu Ying halfway.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing so excitedly?" Liu Ying asked Li Ping, who looked very happy.
But Zhao Ling spoke first: "Leilei brought his wife back."
When Liu Ying heard this, she wanted to join in the fun. The three sisters-in-law were all very busy and energetic.
If there were no interests involved, the three brothers would get along very well, and the sisters-in-law would be quite united, and they would help out whenever there was a big or small matter at home.
If you say that in the village, such a relationship is already considered good. Chen Wanglong is actually quite satisfied with this, but he is somewhat regretful about Zhuang Sheng's matter.
The group rushed to Chen Jianhua's house and saw Xiaofang as soon as they entered the door.
But the girl was fair and clean, and very pretty. Zhao Ling and Liu Ying instantly felt that Li Ping hadn't boasted at the time. Looking at this niece-in-law, they believed that she was a rare sight.
The family sat together and started chatting. During the conversation, they asked when they were going to get married.
Chen Lei said, "Why don't I come back to visit and let my parents set a date."
"That's great! Leilei, you're the second marriage in our family!" Zhao Ling said happily, "Now that you've made it, we must hold a grand wedding."
Chen Lei looked at Zhao Ling and said, "Auntie, which one is the second one? Big brother is the first one, Zhuang Sheng is the second one, and I am the third one."
These words left Zhao Ling speechless for a moment. The meaning of these words undoubtedly showed that Zhao Ling did not regard Zhuang Sheng as a family member. In fact, Chen Lei was a sincere man and did not think much about it. It was just that the speaker did not mean it, but the listener took it seriously.
