Chapter 184: Worshiping the Spirit
The twenty-something girl stepped forward and introduced herself: "My name is Dancai, and these are my mom and dad. We live on your right side, and we heard you moved into your new home today, so we came to congratulate you."
Dancai was holding a basket in her hand, which contained several kinds of fruits. There were water droplets on the fruits, which looked very fresh.
A middle-aged man with two children nearby also said, "My name is Xue Cun, and I live behind your house. This is my son Xue Yin, and my daughter Xue Jing."
Ye Li had an impression of this person because he could see a corner of Xue Cun's house from the window of their master bedroom.
"Come up quickly." Ye Li invited.
The two families came up and gave gifts to Ye Li.
"Thank you." Ye Li accepted them all without hesitation. Their family was short of everything right now, so they couldn't be polite.
Ye Li took the gifts to the kitchen, put the fruits sent by Dan Cai into a fruit basket woven from bamboo strips, and put the nuts sent by Xue Cun into a small basket, and quickly sent them to the dining table in the living room.
But at least it looks like we are welcoming guests.
"Sister Ye Li, your house is so beautiful, with such a big balcony outside." Dan Cai said with envy without hiding her emotions.
"It's not bad. I chose this one on purpose."
"That's great." Dancai added, "You can choose a house that big. It would be great if my house was as big as yours."
"Well, this tree is a little bigger, so naturally I pruned it a little bigger." Ye Li smiled and really didn't want to continue this topic.
Dancai was tactful and didn't continue talking, so the topic was over.
When Xixi saw that there were new friends, a little girl who was one year younger than her, she immediately pulled the two children from the Xue family to play together.
At the dinner table, everyone chatted and the topic started to change.
Ye Li told everyone about his situation and also learned about the situations of his neighbors.
Jiang Mei has a husband, Wu Liang, and two sons.
Dancai has parents and an older brother who has married and started his own family.
As for Xue Cun, his wife died in an accident two years ago, leaving behind only a son and a daughter.
They all wandered from outside to the forest tribe. The forest tribe took them in, provided them with shelter, and allowed them to integrate into the forest tribe.
"Is anyone here?" Suddenly, a sweet voice sounded, and a fresh-looking girl walked in from the doorway with a sweet smile. She said with a smile: "Everyone is here, we are all late."
As soon as she finished speaking, a young boy came out from behind her, carrying a big bag in his hand.
"Why are you so slow?" The girl glanced at the young boy in disapproval. Then she smiled again and said to Ye Li, "You must be the new Ye Li who moved in here. Hello, my name is Chong Ling. Chong means worship and Ling means agility. You can call me Ling'er, too."
"Hello, my name is Ye Li." Ye Li said with a smile. The smile of the girl in front of him was so sweet that it made people feel very good about her.
"This is my boyfriend Zheng Tianning." The girl said with a smile.
I don’t know if it was Ye Li’s illusion, but Chong Ling’s appearance made some of the guests present a little unhappy. Dancai’s parents and Xue Cun reacted most obviously, while Jiang Mei and her husband didn’t react much.
Chong Ling smiled and said to Ye Li, "Tian Ning and I ran all over the forest and picked up a lot of mushrooms for you. I hope you like them."
When Ye Li heard the word "mushroom", she was very happy. She was a mushroom lover and her favorite thing to eat was mushroom.
Zheng Tianning quickly put down the bag in his hand and opened it to show Ye Li.
Ye Li opened the bag and took a look. Inside were various wild mushrooms that she was familiar with. If she fried these mushrooms in a pan, the taste would be so delicious that it would make people salivate.
"Thank you. I like it very much."
"Haha... I'm glad you like it. It's worth it for my dear and I to look for it for the whole morning." Chong Ling smiled happily, leaning on her boyfriend Zheng Tianning like a flower.
Xue Cun and others shuddered, thinking that they really didn't know how to be affectionate in different situations.
It can be seen that Xue Cun and Dancai's parents cannot stand Chong Ling's behavior.
It was almost time for dinner, and Xiao Xun had not returned yet. However, with a room full of guests, Ye Li didn't feel comfortable letting them wait for Xiao Xun as well, so she went to the kitchen to cook.
