Ye Beiping took a few steps and, seeing that no one was following him, turned around and looked at the two of them curiously. He found that they were staring at the houses in the neighborhood in front of them, and then he understood what was going on.
She pursed her lips, walked back, and waved her hand in front of the two of them.
"Hey, time to go home."
"Oh, oh, oh." Wu Di and Hou Baolin reacted, nodded blankly, and followed Ye Beiping's footsteps.
Wu Di: "Monkey, when do you think we'll be able to live in a house like this?"
Hou Baolin: "This house must be expensive. My dad said that any house in the city costs tens of thousands of yuan."
Ye Beiping, who was walking ahead, heard the two whispering and shook his head with amusement.
"Alright, if you want to stay here, then stay here. Anyway, we're moving soon, so how about we let you stay here after we move?"
"Really?" Wu Di's eyes lit up with excitement.
Hou Baolin swallowed hard: "Beiping, can we really live here?"
"certainly."
As he spoke, Ye Beiping led the two to his front door.
The apartment I rented was the closest building to the community gate, so it was very convenient to walk there.
Click!
The door opened, and the three of them went inside, immediately smelling the aroma of meat.
Hou Baolin unconsciously swallowed again: "Fatty, this suddenly reminds me of the month we got married in Beiping. We could eat meat every day. After we left Beiping, we ate less meat."
“Yes.” Wu Di was also taken back to the scene a few months ago when he ate meat almost every day by Hou Baolin’s words, and swallowed hard.
Hearing the commotion, Tao Qiuyan came out of the kitchen and saw Hou Baolin and Wu Di. She quickly wiped her hands and went to greet them.
"You've finally arrived. You must be tired. Go and rest for a bit, and you'll be able to have dinner soon."
Seeing his mother's happy expression, Ye Beiping could only manage a wry smile.
Tao Qiuyan was so focused on taking the things from Wu Di and Hou Baolin that she didn't even think about the two large bags her son was carrying.
However, Tao Qiuyan has been in Hangzhou for half a month, and apart from helping with the stall, she has been staying at home with Su Xinyi. She must be bored to death.
Now, Hou Baolin and Wu Di are, after all, children she watched grow up, so she must feel a sense of closeness with them as fellow villagers.
"Auntie."
"Auntie."
"Hey, hey, hey." Hearing Hou Baolin and Wu Di address her as such, Tao Qiuyan's face crinkled with laughter.
After placing their belongings aside, he invited Hou Baolin and Wu Di to sit on the sofa before returning to the kitchen to help Aunt Li with the cooking.
Ye Beiping shook his head helplessly and tossed the two large bags he was carrying aside.
Although I was curious about why these two had brought so much stuff, I didn't think about rummaging through their bags.
It's probably Hou Yongping and Wu Di's father, the village chief, who asked the two of them to bring him some good food.
He liked to go to both of their houses to freeload food and drinks since he was a child. Perhaps knowing that he lost his father at a young age, Hou Yongping and Wu Guangfa took special care of him.
"Sister-in-law, Sister Xiaoxin."
"Sister-in-law, Sister Xiaoxin."
Upon seeing Su Xinyi and Ye Xiaoxin, Hou Baolin and Wu Di greeted them respectfully with smiles.
As the hostess, Su Xinyi naturally fulfilled her duties as a local, getting up to serve the two some melon seeds, peanuts, and other treats.
Ye Xiaoxin also took the initiative to pour two glasses of water.
"Have some water. You must be tired from the journey here."
"OK."
They both nodded at the same time, picked up their water glasses, and drank them down in one gulp.
At this moment, Su Xinyi saw Ye Beiping, got up, pulled him to a corner, and whispered, "I suddenly remembered, you said Jiang Hai and the others are coming today too. Is our house too small? Why don't we eat out?"
After all, Ye Beiping and his mother hadn't told Su Xinyi about these decisions; they considered it an outside matter, not a family affair. Besides, they didn't live together; they might get together occasionally, so they felt Su Xinyi didn't need to worry about it.
"It's alright." Ye Beiping had already thought about it.
Sharing commissions is too conspicuous; it involves tens of thousands of yuan, and it could easily attract unwanted attention.
At home is the perfect place.
As for the small space, it can be divided into two tables. The dining table in the living room can be given to Hou Baolin and Wu Di, while his mother, sister, and wife can eat there.
The other people were all acquaintances, and they ate at the coffee table in the living room in the same way.
Or, if men are drinking together, they won't eat much food. In that case, the women, like their mothers, can sit at the dining table while the men stay in the living room.
"Okay." Seeing that Ye Beiping seemed to have already made arrangements, Su Xinyi didn't say anything more and went back to the living room to chat.
A short while later, there was a knock on the door.
Ye Beiping was checking if the wine he had bought for the night was enough.
There's still more than half a bottle of Moutai left from the last time I drank with my father-in-law, so I'll finish it off today.
He suddenly heard a knock on the door, but without asking, he went to open it while holding the wine.
He was stunned when he saw who it was.
"Mom and Dad? Xinwan, what brings you here?"
Indeed, the visitors were Su Qingwen, Min Yuehua, and Su Xinwan.
Su Qingwen smiled slightly, holding a bottle of wine in his hand: "We've been busy for a while and haven't seen Xinyi in a long time, so we came to visit. We brought a bottle of wine and some dishes to treat ourselves."
He was absolutely right when he said he wanted to improve the food.
Knowing that Ye Beiping is often busy outside and doesn't take care of the family much, Su Xinyi probably can't eat well every day. In addition, the young couple has just arrived in Hangzhou and probably doesn't have much money in their pockets. As parents, they definitely want to help out.
