Lu Xiaohe hugged Lu Shiye's neck and struggled to let her go.
As soon as Lu Xiaohe landed, he turned around and ran away on his two short legs, yelling, "Mom, grandma, Sister Cheng promised to be my third aunt! I have a third aunt! Grandma, if you marry a third aunt, do you have to prepare a lot of delicious food? Do you have any delicious candies? Last time, I only ate one piece of the candy that Sister Cheng gave me. My mom secretly hid the rest, so I didn't get to eat any of it."
Lu Xiaohe pouted and complained to her grandmother.
Ma Xiulian immediately rolled her eyes at Li Hongmei and said, "Look at how ignorant you are, yet you even steal your own daughter's things. How can I not hate you to death!"
"Grandma, the candy didn't even go into my mom's stomach. She just snatched my candy away, hid it and took it back to grandma's house to give to Li Jiabao. Humph!"
Ma Xiulian directly hit Li Hongmei with a stick, "You are a thief who wants to use my Lu family's things to fill the holes in the Li family. I tell you, it's impossible."
Li Hongmei could only beg for mercy, "Mom, I, I didn't. Don't listen to Xiao He's nonsense. I, I helped her keep the candy because I was afraid that she would get bad teeth if she ate too much candy. I really didn't move back to my parents' home."
"Hmph!" Ma Xiulian snorted coldly, "It's best like this. The family is busy these days, so don't go back to your parents' house. Stay at home and help me."
"Mom, how can this be possible? My brother will be looking for a partner in a few days. How can I, as his elder sister, not be there?" Li Hongmei retorted.
She is the fourth child in her family, with an older brother, two older sisters, and a younger brother.
"Is it your brother who is looking after the couple or you? If you are not there, your brother will not be able to find a wife? Li Hongmei, who are you? Will the Li family be unable to move forward without you?"
Bah! Whose son is looking for a partner to marry? This is just an excuse made by Mrs. Li to ask for things from the ladies.
Last time, when Granny Li scolded the third child, she didn't go to the house, but it was out of consideration for the old man.
"Li Hongmei, I'm warning you. Today is a good day for the Third Brother. If you dare to make trouble, go back to Old Li's house and never come to my Lu family again. Do you hear me?"
Li Hongmei shuddered with fear and nodded gloomily, "Got it!"
"I'll go check it out. You stir-fry the two remaining dishes!"
Ma Xiulian threw down her clothes and brought Lu Xiaohe to the yard to meet them.
"Cheng Zhiqing, we are not outsiders, why do you bring so many things with you?" Ma Xiu Lian said with a smile.
Cheng Yunan said, "Auntie, didn't I tell you to call me Nannan? Why are you calling me Cheng Zhiqing? I didn't bring anything good, just a little token of my appreciation."
"Yes, yes, yes, we are a family from now on. It's auntie's fault. Third brother, quickly bring Nannan into the house. We will have dinner right away!"
Ma Xiulian enthusiastically took care of the person into the house, and did not forget to shout into the house, "Old man, the third brother is here with his target."
Lu Weimin came to greet them at the door of the main house. Everyone said that Cheng Zhiqing was pretty, and the maids in the family also praised her, but as a grown man, he couldn't just stare at the little girl all the time.
Now that she was about to become his daughter-in-law, Lu Weimin dared not to look into the details.
This one doesn't seem to be a big deal, the more I look at it, the more satisfied I am.
On the contrary, he couldn't find any adjective to describe it. He just thought it was handsome. This kid was as handsome as the people in picture magazines.
The next one is their daughter-in-law. It feels like a dream.
"Hello, village chief!"
"Okay! Let's go into the house first. You must be tired after working all afternoon. The third brother's room is next to you. If you are tired, go and rest in his room." Lu Weimin said, pointing to the room next door.
Cheng Yunan smiled and said, "Brother Ye helped me at noon, so I didn't get tired."
Lu Shiye: “…” This was the first time the little girl called him brother!
After Cheng Yunan finished speaking, she felt a slightly aggressive gaze and turned her head, and their eyes met.
However, Cheng Yunan saw an indescribable emotion in the other person's eyes.
It's fire, yet it's warm and gentle; it's water, yet it's boiling and scalding.
As if her heart was burned, Cheng Yunan quickly withdrew her gaze.
Lu Shiye raised the corners of his lips. Isn't the little girl very brave? Why did her expression just now look like a frightened rabbit?
Although...his heart was indeed boiling with anger.
"Third brother, Cheng Zhiqing!"
The old man went to the yard, and Lu Fengshou walked in. "Third brother, I caught some fish in the river yesterday. I knew that my family was having a party, so I brought it here specially to add to the dishes."
As he spoke, the fish in his hand twitched twice.
Lu Shiye took over, "Then I won't be polite to you!"
"Third brother, look at what you said. We are brothers, there is no need to be polite." Lu Fengshou did not leave, and greeted Cheng Yunan, "Hello, Cheng Zhiqing, I am Lu Fengshou, and my father is Lu Weixue."
"Fengshou is my third uncle's eldest son, one year younger than me. You can just call him Fengshou." Lu Shiye put the fish into the basin and continued.
"Oh, hello Fengshou, I'm Cheng Yunan! Your third brother's...girlfriend!"
Lu Fengshou was a man who could read people's expressions, so he left without staying for long.
As soon as the others left, Lu Shiye squatted down to pick up the fish, gutted it, and cleaned off the scales.
"Last time I saw you like drinking fish soup, I'll make some later. Eat more." When he saw the girl this time, he felt that she had lost some weight, and Lu Shiye wanted to gain back the lost weight.
"How do you know I like fish?"
"Last time at the state-owned hotel, I saw that the dishes you and that lady ordered included fish soup. I wonder if you'll remember it after eating it!"
Cheng Yunan raised his eyebrows.
It seems that she was not the only one who had that thought when she confessed her feelings.
This man is very meticulous, which is good.
While Lu Shiye was cleaning up the fish, Lu Xiaohe came over to find Cheng Yunan.
Looking at Cheng Yunan's smiling face, Lu Xiaohe said unconsciously: "Sister Cheng, you are so beautiful."
"Our Xiao He is pretty too! Here, this is a meeting gift from sister to you." Cheng Yunan appeared in her hand with two red hair bands with little bunnies on them, as if she knew magic.
She had found this in the space storage room. She must have thought it was cute and bought it and thrown it into the storage room.
"Wow! It's so beautiful, sister, is this really for me?"
A few years ago, Xiaohua’s mother bought her a red hair tie, which made her extremely jealous. She never expected that Sister Cheng would give her such a beautiful hair tie.
"You are the only child in the family, so of course this is for you! Come, let me comb your hair for you."
Cheng Yunan did it on a whim. She had seen some hair braiding tutorials online before and she learned it quite well.
The little girl brought a wooden comb from home, and the two of them sat in the yard and combed Xiao He's hair into a particularly beautiful hairstyle, and even tied a little bunny hairband at the end of her hair.
The little girl was so beautiful that she was spinning around in circles in the yard.
"Grandma, Third Uncle, Sister Cheng combed my hair and gave me a very pretty hair tie with a little bunny on it. Does it look pretty?"
Lu Xiaohe went to the kitchen to show off again!
