In the city, He Jianguo and his brothers, as well as his sisters-in-law Luo Chunfeng and Xu Yingchun, got up early in the morning to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.
"Here I come, I'm back."
He Yuxian shouted loudly.
Several people in the yard stood up together, and Luo Chunfeng and Xu Yingchun wiped their hands and went to greet them.
He Yuxian came in from outside carrying two large buckets of water.
Luo Chunfeng, "Ah Xian, where are your aunt and sister-in-law?"
"Huh? I don't know."
He Yuxian looked confused.
"Are they here yet?"
Luo Chunfeng...
Xu Yingchun glared at her son, feeling disappointed. "You said it was coming, it was coming. What did it mean?"
The two sisters-in-law immediately thought that when He Yuxian said "coming", he meant that their sister-in-law and her family had returned.
He Yuxian...
"I'm talking about seafood!"
"Yes, king crab, big lobster, and big fat mandarin fish."
He Yuxian pointed out the seafood in the bucket he was holding to his aunt and mother as if he was showing off a treasure.
I thought I would be praised.
After all, he had gotten it back with great difficulty.
But who knew that Luo Chunfeng and Xu Yingchun were not interested in the seafood brought back by He Yuxian at all.
It’s not that I’m not interested, it’s just that I’m not that interested.
What the two sisters-in-law are looking forward to more now is meeting their younger sister and Wen Jing's family.
They haven't seen their children for a long time and don't know how much they have grown.
Thinking of the children, the two sisters-in-law simultaneously thought of the fruits and snacks prepared at home. They wondered if they had enough. If not, should they go buy some more?
"Mom, Auntie, don't you think it's rare to get such a big piece of seafood?"
He Yuxian was very shocked.
Xu Yingchun glanced at her son and asked, "What's so rare about it?"
He Yuxian...
Of course it’s rare!
This is Beijing, not the coastal city where they are from!
Besides, even if it is a coastal city, if you want to get king crabs and lobsters as big as the ones he has, you have to go to Boston abroad to get them.
"This is seafood that has traveled across the ocean to see us."
"Since ancient times, we Chinese have always valued serving good wine to friends. Why are you so cold when it comes to Auntie and Mom?"
He Yuxian was very puzzled.
Xu Yingchun said, "I didn't stop them from drinking!"
After saying that, she said to He Libang, who was busy stewing chicken under the eaves, "Dad, when you cook the shrimp and crabs later, give them more wine to drink."
He Yuxian...
What the fuck said seems to make sense, doesn't it?
This wine doesn't seem to be the same as the wine for people to drink?
Never mind how they drink, as long as we have good wine to entertain them.
He Yuxian laughed and carried two buckets in.
After a while, He Yucheng also came back from outside.
He also brought back a basket of crabs.
It was not as big as the one He Yuxian brought back, and its legs and feet were still deformed.
Xu Yingchun asked He Yucheng, do crabs nowadays have no meat?
"Second Aunt, although this type of crab isn't very fat, it still has some meat."
The best time to eat crabs is summer.
The meat was very fatty at that time.
For those who specialize in eating the roe, varieties like Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs are also full of roe and oozing with oil.
It's winter now, not the season for eating crabs.
But during the Chinese New Year, we don’t care so much.
Xu Yingchun felt that what He Yucheng said made sense.
She nodded repeatedly and asked He Yucheng to move the things in with a smile.
He Yuxian, who had been watching from the side for a while, became unhappy at this time.
"Why are you so cold to me, but so enthusiastic towards my brother, even though I brought back seafood like him?"
Xu Yingchun glanced at her son and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Why?"
He Yuxian was confused, "I don't know."
Xu Yingchun looked at her son's confused look and felt really disappointed in him.
Luo Chunfeng's voice, tinged with laughter, echoed from the side, "What other reason could there be? Isn't it because your brother finally found a partner?"
In the He family, if someone is in his thirties and still single, he is definitely at the bottom of the contempt chain.
He Yuxian...
So sad.
"But I can't find this person just because I want to!"
"I can't just go out on the street and pick up any lesbian and have sex with her, right? Even if I'm willing, she won't want to date me! And even if she's willing, my mom won't want to date me, right?"
He Yuxian didn't want to date, and he had a lot of rebuttals.
Xu Yingchun sneered at the side.
"Don't put the blame on your mother. I can't bear the responsibility of your mother."
After that, she added, "I'm not very picky. As long as you're willing to find a partner, as long as she's a woman, I'll accept you."
He Yuxian...
Isn't this requirement too low?
The people nearby couldn't help but laugh when they heard the conversation between the mother and son.
He Yucheng was also watching the fun from the side, not minding the trouble. "I think Tian Tian's classmate is pretty good, but you're the only one who's being picky and not giving an accurate opinion."
"Brother, don't talk nonsense!"
He Yuxian stopped He Yucheng in time.
Xu Yingchun, who was standing by, sensed something was wrong.
"Tian Tian's classmate? Ah Cheng, tell Second Auntie if there's really a female lesbian who's interested in this brat?"
The mother now became a spectator, with a look of curiosity on her face.
No matter how He Yuxian tried to stop her, his mother showed no sign of wavering.
He had no choice but to keep signaling to his brother with his eyes, telling him not to mess with him, as he didn't want to find a partner yet!
