After wiping her feet, Yue Jiuyue slowly put on her socks and shoes. Then, she leisurely tugged at the hem of her clothes. She had originally wanted to fix her hair, but then remembered that she had just touched her feet, so she put her hands down.
She wasn't dawdling; she was thinking about the original owner's eldest sister's family's purpose in coming here.
Maybe they're here to freeload?
They might also be there to arrange a marriage between the children of the two families.
Yue Jiuyue could only think of these two points.
"San Ya'er".
"Third Aunt!"
As soon as Yue Jiuyue opened the door, the original owner's eldest sister and her family, who were sitting in the main room, immediately stood up to greet her.
—So it turns out they didn't come as a family, just a couple.
This further solidified Yue Jiuyue's guess, since it's not easy to discuss marriage when the child is in front of you.
"Big sister, big brother-in-law, please sit down first. I'm going to wash my hands. We'll have a good chat when I get back."
When Yue Jiuyue went out to wash her hands, she asked the eldest brother, who was helping to wash the vegetables, to ask the third and fourth brothers what they thought.
Although it was just a guess, both boys were of marriageable age. If one of them had feelings for a cousin, she wouldn't stop them. If they had no feelings at all, then they could go and meet other girls; she certainly wouldn't let them remain single.
"mother."
After Lin Chaodong returned, he shook his head at Yue Jiuyue.
Yue Jiuyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she didn't stop her cousins from being together, because that's how it is in this era, people like to marry within families, and she didn't want to be the one to break them up.
But if they don't have any ideas, that would be great! What if she has to watch her cousins get together and their children have problems?
After washing her hands, Yue Jiuyue shook off the water and pushed open the door to go inside.
"Big sister and brother-in-law haven't eaten yet, have they? Man'er's mother, is the food ready?"
Yue Jiuyue looked at the original owner's eldest sister, who seemed hesitant to speak, and really didn't want to bring up the topic. She thought it best to finish eating first, so that they wouldn't lose their appetite later.
"Mother, that's all."
During the Lunar New Year, every household has ready-made meals; they can simply heat them up in a pot and eat them.
"Big sister and brother-in-law, let's eat first. We can talk about it later."
The original owner's eldest sister and her husband exchanged a glance, sighed, then looked at the food on the table, and exchanged another glance. Yue Jiuyue caught a glimpse of the satisfied look in their eyes.
—Is this because you're satisfied with the food at their house? Or are you satisfied with the living conditions of your future daughter's family?
Yue Jiuyue didn't care what they thought. Anyway, if her son was unwilling, even if the original owner's eldest sister pleaded with her until the end, she would not agree.
The couple had something on their minds and were in a hurry to get home, so they quickly finished their meal without worrying about the heat. After they let out a burp, the original owner's eldest sister finally spoke up about why she had come.
"San Ya'er, the reason I came here this time is to bring up your third son's marriage. We are sisters, so I'll be frank with you."
What do you think of my little girl? She's your niece, and you know how capable she is. She's the most diligent and capable woman. Once she marries into the family, she'll be able to take care of everything for you, both inside and outside the household.
Besides, this is a double blessing for our family. You don't need to worry about your future daughter-in-law being unfaithful, nor do you need to worry about your son forgetting his mother after getting married. Isn't that great? Don't you agree?
