"You'll know when the time comes." Xu Manman was secretly satisfied. This is what should be done. Why should a little brat pretend to be an adult?
Chen Meiyu came out of the kitchen with a bowl in her hand. "Alright, stop bothering your sister. Manman, come here quickly. Mom made chicken noodle soup for you. Eat it and go to bed early."
However, Chen Ming's side was not so calm. After all, he was the first among the younger generation to find a partner. Not only did he have to endure the teasing of his brothers, but his parents also did not let him go when he returned home.
Ye Rong said to her eldest son, who was eating at the table, "I was prepared for you to be single for the rest of your life, but I didn't expect your old house to catch fire."
Chen Ming felt a lump in his chest with a mouthful of food stuck in his throat. He drank a large glass of water before swallowing it. "Mom, how old am I? Why do you say the old house is on fire?"
"When your dad was your age, you could run all over the place. Aren't you old enough?"
Knowing that he couldn't win the argument with his own mother, Chen Ming chose to keep quiet.
"Luckily, Manman is with you and is willing to help you. Otherwise, if you rely on yourselves, you will really be single for the rest of your lives."
Chen Feng, who was watching his brother's show on the side, had a smile on his face, but when he heard his mother say that, he immediately stopped laughing. It was okay to watch the fun, but it would be bad if he got himself into trouble.
Fortunately, his mother didn't have time to pay attention to her at the moment. "Didn't I ask you to bring back the photos? Did you bring them? Take them out and let me see them."
Ye Rong urged about this matter every time she wrote back. How could Chen Ming not know about it? He took out a photo from his wallet and handed it to her. This photo was taken specially when he went to the park before.
Ye Rong took the photo and looked at it carefully. "Manman really didn't say that this girl is very smart."
Chen Feng poked his head out from behind and asked, "What does sister-in-law look like? Let me see too."
Ye Rong slapped him and said, "What are you looking at? If you want a wife, go find one yourself." The eldest son's personal problem was solved, and now he was not very fond of the second son in the family.
"Your elder brother at least knows that he should get married when he's older. But you, on the other hand, don't do any serious work all day long. You're just messing around with cats and dogs all day long. What kind of girl would be interested in you?"
When it comes to this, Chen Feng becomes dissatisfied, "How can I tease cats and dogs? I am busy in classes all day long and not serious enough. Besides, wasn't my brother also single when he was my age?" Why does he have to be scolded?
"Your brother? When your brother was your age, he suffered in the countryside. How could he find a wife? Besides, how can you compare with your brother? Putting aside other things, just looking at your brother's face, he is streets ahead of you. With your face like Black Diamond, who can be expected to look at you?"
"Humph, even if that pretty boy looks like that, I wouldn't want him even if I gave him to you."
Ye Rong took a feather duster and hit his butt. "Who are you calling a gigolo? You're ugly yourself and you can't say it."
In fact, to be fair, Chen Feng is not ugly. His facial features are similar to Chen Ming's, and his bone structure is very good. It's just that he doesn't have Xu Manman, his cousin, to help him dress up and keep an eye on his image management all day long.
Ye Rong mainly adopted a laissez-faire approach when raising her son, which resulted in Chen Feng living a rough life. He was not fair to begin with, and he had been preparing for the final exams a few days ago, so he had no time to shave. His beard was untidy, and when he stood next to Chen Ming, not only did his appearance look inferior to his, he also looked several years older.
When Chen Feng heard his mother say this, he stiffened his neck and said, "You gave birth to me, too. If I'm not good-looking, it's because of you and my father."
Now, Chen Zhibin, who was sitting next to him reading a newspaper, was also brought in. In the next half hour, Chen Feng successfully won the mixed doubles.
Chen Ming ate the food in the bowl. His mother's cooking skills have improved. Today's food is really delicious and goes well with rice.
In fact, this summer vacation is not much different from last year. My eldest cousin is back. Although his vacation is shorter than theirs, at least he has some time off. But my second cousin is not so lucky. It is said that he received a mission to go to the front line.
They didn't have it so easy in the military district either, because the situation on the border was tense and my uncle was always on standby. He didn't go to the front line, but a team was sent there from the military district. Although my uncle didn't go there now, it was because he had already returned from his rotation.
It was only when they arrived on the island that their aunt told them the news.
"The mission is confidential. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry."
Xu Manman asked, "Is my uncle injured?"
"No, I checked it out right after I got back, and there's nothing wrong."
"Then second brother..."
