My second aunt smiled silently, shook her head, and said nothing.
Because of the Chinese New Year, the usually quiet barbershop was bustling with activity. People came and went, and when they went in, there were four or five young men and women sitting on stools waiting for them.
"Sister Xue Li!" He Yulan exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Xue Li.
Su Xueli quickly introduced her, "Yulan, this is my husband's second aunt. I brought her here to get her hair cut."
She whispered to her second aunt, "Second aunt, this is my fiancée, Yulan. You can come to her for haircuts from now on."
"Hello, Second Aunt," He Yulan called out in a clear, cheerful voice.
Her second aunt also greeted her with a smile, and then praised, "What a beautiful girl, you can tell at a glance that she is very skillful."
"Second Aunt is so good at praising people. Come on, sit down and wait a while. Here, let Second Aunt see which hairstyle you want." He Yulan handed the hairstyle book to Second Aunt.
My second aunt sat down and looked through the pages carefully; she had no idea there were so many hairstyles.
Seeing that her second aunt was watching intently, Su Xueli quietly went to the small house in the back and then closed the door.
"Sister Xue Li, you've finally arrived!" Su Yunfeng, who was washing towels, exclaimed in surprise when he saw Su Xue Li.
One of the guys even had red eyes.
Su Xueli quickly hugged him and patted his shoulder to comfort him: "Oh dear, my good little brother, don't cry, don't cry, your sister is late, your sister is late."
"Go to hell." Su Yunfeng laughed.
The siblings sat on the edge of the bed and started talking.
Su Xueli asked him, "What are your plans? Are you planning to spend the New Year here too?"
Su Yunfeng looked troubled: "Of course I want to go home, because Yulan also has to go home for the New Year, but she can't take me to her house for the New Year. What are we supposed to do?"
Su Xueli frowned. "What, are you going to give up?"
Su Yunfeng waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, how could that be, sister? I will never regret taking this step in my life. What I mean is, I want to know how things are going with Grandpa and my parents. If they compromise, I will take Yulan home to discuss the engagement."
Su Xueli was finally relieved; otherwise, all her efforts would have been in vain.
She said, "Anyway, it's almost Chinese New Year, so I'm giving myself a holiday. This afternoon, I'll go back to my hometown to find out what's going on, and then I'll tell you."
Su Yunfeng grinned, then said somewhat aggrievedly, "Sister, you haven't come to see me these past few days. You've been so busy making money that you don't care about your little brother anymore."
Su Xueli said, "Nonsense, how could I abandon my brother? Here he is. Don't rush, now is the time to outwit and outmaneuver your own family, you have to stay calm."
Su Yunfeng chuckled, "No rush, being with Yulan every day is great."
Su Xueli looked at the small bed and asked, "You two aren't sleeping together, are you?"
Su Yunfeng denied it excitedly, "No, no, how could I be such a scoundrel? Yulan isn't a casual person either. We're still young, and our relationship isn't even established yet. We wouldn't do anything reckless."
Her parents run a shop selling soy sauce and vinegar on the street, and they live there at night. She stays there too, goes back to sleep after she's done working, and comes back in the morning. I sleep here by myself.
Su Xueli nodded, "Then I'm relieved. Just don't do anything foolish. She's a girl, her parents run a business in town, and her brother is a teacher. We have to protect her reputation."
"Brother, what brings you here!" He Yulan's voice was deliberately raised outside.
This was undoubtedly for those behind them to hear.
Su Xueli and Su Yunfeng were both startled. Su Xueli said, "You should hide quickly!"
The door has been knocked on.
