Xiao Hechuan just smiled and gave his father an affirmative look.
Everything was going as he expected, which was good, but there was still one thing he had not completed, which was what he had promised Su Yanqing.
Su Yanqing drank much more than him yesterday. After three rounds of drinks, he said a lot of heartfelt words to him. This guy was really open with him and told him everything.
He said that sometimes he felt very tired. In fact, his family situation was not complicated, but the people in his family were complicated. He had a very bad relationship with his half-brother. The half-brother always wanted to compete with him in everything and liked to trip him up. He almost lost his life because of him.
His mother was also very strong-willed, and she valued family background and reputation more than anything else, but those were not what he wanted.
He also talked about his feelings for Lanlan. He said that when he saw her for the first time, he couldn't let her go. Only then did he realize that there really was such a thing as love at first sight in this world.
He repeatedly begged Xiao Hechuan to help him and convey his message, hoping that he could persuade Xiao Lanlan well, and he promised that he was willing to wait for her forever.
Xiao Hechuan walked to Xiao Lanlan, and Xiao Lanlan also smiled and congratulated him.
"Lanlan, come here, I want to talk to you alone."
Looking at Fourth Brother's serious expression, to be honest, Xiao Lanlan felt inexplicably guilty.
"What can't you say in front of everyone?"
"Just come with me."
After Xiao Hechuan finished speaking, he walked out of the yard directly. Xiao Lanlan had no choice but to follow him. The two of them walked to the end of the alley one after the other. Xiao directly told her what he had talked about with Su Yanqing yesterday.
"He said that he hoped you would give him a chance to talk to you. He said he would always be waiting for you. It was up to you whether you wanted to give him this chance or not.
If you have made up your mind, come and tell me, I will take you and my sister-in-law to visit Mr. Su's residence on a good day. If you have not made up your mind, don't worry or embarrass yourself. I will be there for you. From now on, I will be your support and no one will dare to look down on you!"
Having said this, Xiao Lanlan's tears, which she had been holding back for so long, burst out again.
She bit her lower lip tightly. A girl of sixteen or seventeen, just beginning to fall in love, how could she resist the persistent and sincere love of the person she liked?
Seeing her crying, Xiao Hechuan couldn't help but frowning. He took out a plain handkerchief and handed it to her to wipe her tears. Xiao Lanlan took it in silence.
The Xiao family was very curious about what the brother and sister talked about. They only knew that Lanlan's eyes were red when she came back, but Jiang Sui probably knew what it was about.
Xiao Hechuan did not hide it from Jiang Sui and told her the content of the conversation later.
After hearing this, Jiang Sui didn't know what to feel, but there was one thing: it was difficult for this couple to let go of each other. After all, first love is beautiful and worth looking forward to.
In fact, it’s not bad to wait for a few years. Both parties will become more mature and can stand the test of time. That is called unswerving love.
Anyway, Xiao Hechuan will become the support for all of them. By then, all the concepts of family background will no longer be a problem, and they will be respected by others.
…
That night, Xiao Lanlan tossed and turned in her thoughts, all kinds of ideas occurred to her, and she kept wavering between giving up and persisting.
Finally, her surging emotions overcame her rationality. She thought to herself, her life was only a dozen years long, but she felt like she had experienced a lot. She had heard all kinds of nasty things anyway, so why not give herself a chance?
My fourth sister-in-law once said that compared to failure, regret is the most difficult to let go.
So, she chose to give Su Yanqing a chance.
The next day, she took the initiative to find Jiang Sui and told her that she wanted to go shopping and buy two nice dresses.
"Fourth sister-in-law, let's call mother and second sister-in-law to go to the street. Didn't fourth brother tell us that he wanted you to take us to the clothing store?"
Today, Lanlan had a bright smile on her face. She had been forcing herself to smile for a long time.
"Are you in such a hurry?"
Jiang Sui was just about to work with Xiao's mother to grind sweet potato starch.
"Aren't you going to visit Mr. Su's house? How can you not have a decent dress? It's too simple and not appropriate, right?" Xiao Lanlan said bluntly.
So that's what she meant. After hearing her say that, Jiang Sui immediately knew what she meant. It seemed that she had thought it through and decided to meet Su Yanqing again and have a good talk with him.
Then respect her decision.
"There's no need to rush, right? There's still a lot of work to do at home!" Looking at so many sweet potatoes, Xiao's mother wanted to grind and filter them as soon as possible, waiting to open the business early after the New Year and make a profit sooner.
Xiao Hechuan and the others were all in the yard, so they naturally heard what Xiao Lanlan said, so he took the initiative to say to Xiao's mother:
"Mom, you guys can just go out and hang out. With so many of us at home, are you still worried that there won't be enough work to do? We all know how to do it. It's all hard work anyway, so you don't need to do it."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi also echoed:
"That's right, mother. Don't worry about these little chores at home. I know exactly how to grind the sweet potato starch. With me here, nothing will go wrong!"
Xiao Yi has the most say. When he was doing business in the town, he accompanied the whole process and he knows every step of the process best.
"Oh, just follow the children. It's rare that my daughter seems to be in a good mood today, so don't spoil her mood. Hechuan is also a filial son. He wants to use the money he earned from the poetry meeting to buy clothes for you and your mother. Just be happy, we don't have any yet!"
Father Xiao sat on a low stool, his tone a little sour.
