Ye Chenming~
When have I ever bullied Nan Nan? But I still obediently ran out, not forgetting to take Yan Xiao Nan's big scarf, so that Nan Nan wouldn't get cold.
Yan Xiaonan wasn't really angry, she was just annoyed by their self-talk. Did they really think she was invisible? Of course they wouldn't pay any attention to her.
Ye Chenming caught up from behind and wrapped a large scarf around Yan Xiaonan's face: "Nannan, it's cold outside, don't get cold. I apologize, it's my fault, I didn't consider your feelings, but I was too happy, I forgot everything because of Chen'er's words, and my mind was only thinking about Chen'er's true love."
Yan Xiaonan looked at Ye Chenming, who was rushing out and forgot to wear a hat and gloves, but did not forget to put on a scarf, and laughed at him for being stupid: "Aren't you afraid of the cold? You don't even wear a hat and gloves. You don't care about your face or your hands."
"What's the point of all this without you by my side?" Ye Chenming started to talk a good game, but that was really what he was thinking.
Yan Xiaonan looked at Ye Chenming strangely. How did this person suddenly change like this? Where did the polite and slightly aloof person from before go? She glared at him and said, "Stop being so glib and speak properly."
“I’m speaking nicely, Yan Xiaonan. I’ve always liked you. When you were little, I thought of you as a little sister. Now that you’re grown up, I really want to be your friend, the kind of close friend who can stay with you for a lifetime.”
I finally waited for you to grow up, but I was labeled a bad element. All my waiting and expectations turned into nothing. During that time, I felt lost and helpless.
I've thought about giving up, but the more I think about giving up, the more I miss you. So I try to hide whenever I see you, and I try to avoid you whenever I hear your voice. I'm afraid of a future without you, and I'm even more afraid that being with you will hurt you.
Today, Ai Dang gave me hope, and I am very grateful to him. I feel that Ai Dang is the guardian angel of our Ye family, always protecting us when Chen'er and I lose faith or are in danger. Now, Ai Dang is my future brother-in-law, and I hope you will be my future wife.
Yan Xiaonan felt a pang of sadness upon hearing this. No wonder he had avoided her for a while, and she had wondered if she had offended him somehow, which had made her feel uneasy. So that's how it was. Alas, fate is cruel.
Ye Chenming straightened his chest and said seriously, "Yan Xiaonan, my name is Ye Chenming, I am twenty-four years old and from Shanghai. I have liked you for a long time and I have wanted to date you for a long time. If I can really get rid of this identity next year and can take the college entrance examination, I ask you to consider me first."
“My grandma said I’m taking a son-in-law, not getting married. I want to support my grandma and my parents.” Yan Xiaonan presented a difficult problem.
Ye Chenming smiled, a very happy smile: "Nannan, as long as you are happy, as long as your family is happy, I am willing. Whether you take a son-in-law or get married, I will listen to you. As for your grandmother and parents who raised you, count me in, no, count me in a lot."
Yan Xiaonan was somewhat moved. Ye Chenming was the only son of the Ye family. If, as Yan Aidang said, the Ye family was so powerful and wealthy, how could they possibly tolerate Ye Chenming becoming a live-in son-in-law?
Ye Chenming seemed to know what Yan Xiaonan was thinking: "Nannan, you don't need to worry about anything. Your mother is my grandmother's apprentice. Everything my grandmother owns will belong to her apprentice in the future. If I can become your future husband, everything I own will be yours too. Don't overthink it."
"What if we have a child in the future? Whose surname will it take?" As soon as these words left her mouth, Yan Xiaonan regretted them. They were too avant-garde.
"Whether he has your surname or mine doesn't matter. What matters is that he is our child, and everything we have belongs to him. Does it matter what his surname is?" Ye Chenming really liked Yan Xiaonan's frankness and innocence. He really didn't care whose surname he had.
"Are you going to tell my parents?" Yan Xiaonan asked.
Ye Chenming shook his head: "Nannan, please wait for me a little longer, okay? Didn't your brother just say that it's estimated that we won't be able to get rid of the hat until next year? No matter how anxious I am, I can't let you down. Please wait for me, just one year, okay?"
Yan Xiaonan nodded. By this time next year, everyone should have already been admitted to university and boarded the train. By the way, which university should you apply to? Yan Xiaonan pondered.
Seeing that Yan Xiaonan didn't speak, Ye Chenming assumed she disagreed and became very anxious: "Nannan, Nannan, say something, give me a reply!"
Hearing Ye Chenming's trembling voice, Yan Xiaonan blamed herself for being distracted at this moment. She grabbed Ye Chenming and ran towards the cowshed, knowing that if they stayed any longer, they would turn into popsicles.
But Ye Chenming simply refused to go back, even if it meant freezing to death. Nan Nan hadn't given him an answer yet, so Yan Xiaonan had no choice but to quickly say, "I agree."
Ye Chenming's lips curled up in a smile. He had already made up his mind: I am Yan Xiaonan's true love. I will work hard to create a beautiful world for my beloved.
Everyone in the room looked towards the door. Upon hearing the door open, Ye Huixian quickly brought out the prepared hot tea. As soon as the two entered the warm room, they relaxed completely. My goodness, even falling in love requires choosing the right time and place!
Ye Chen'er glanced at Ye Chenming and saw him blink. She felt relieved. She really liked Yan Xiaonan. If she became her sister-in-law, then family harmony would be guaranteed.
Fu Qingping was a wise and experienced woman. She was more than happy for her grandchildren to become in-laws with the Yan family. Putting aside the fact that Cuihua was her apprentice, the two Yan family children were both very well-mannered and kind-hearted.
Looking at Grandma Yan's kind and wise appearance, one can tell what kind of family tradition the Yan family has. Children from such families, even if there are bad ones, are extremely rare.
Ye Chen'er and Yan Xiaonan accompanied Ye Huixian to the kitchen. Today was truly a joyous day. Life is full of anticipation; that's what life is all about.
Ye Chenming threw a few pieces of firewood into the kang (heated brick bed), making it burn brightly. He then took out a few bowls. Apart from teacups, there were no cups at home. He couldn't very well drink baijiu (Chinese liquor) from teacups. Even if there was enough liquor, drinking from teacups would make him a wine connoisseur.
There weren't many dishes, but they were incredibly delicious. Yan Aidang wasn't used to the salty-sweet Shanghai cuisine, but since his future wife was from Shanghai, he would have to get used to it.
The dumplings were steamed, not many, just thirty. Ye Chenming and the others didn't really like dumplings; they preferred wontons. But Yan Aidang was a guest, so of course they had to follow the host's lead.
The meal was a pleasant one for both host and guests. Yan Aidang reluctantly bid farewell to Ye Chen'er, indicating that he would come again the next day. Ye Chen'er nodded, wondering if she should prepare some good food for Yan Aidang to take on his journey.
