Mrs. Guan then began to ask Jiang Ye some questions: "Young man, how old are you, what do you do, and who else is in your family?"
Xu Nuannuan felt that she was checking her household registration, but she did not feel disgusted. Instead, she felt as if her own elders were screening her and choosing a son-in-law, which made her feel inexplicably warm.
Jiang Ye answered obediently, "I'm 22 years old. I farm at home and sometimes make furniture for others. I have a mom, a younger brother, and a younger sister at home. My dad disappeared when we were very young and we haven't heard from him since. We all think he's gone. So, there are four people in our family now, and with Nuannuan in the future, we'll have five."
Only then did Mrs. Guan realize that she had asked too many questions and was too abrupt.
She apologized to Xu Nuannuan and Jiang Ye: "Look at me, a visitor, but I'm meddling in too many things. Nuannuan, Xiao Jiang, please don't mind."
"Grandma Guan, I don't mind. You just care about me." Xu Nuannuan said.
Jiang Ye said: "Grandma, I can see that Nuannuan respects you very much. You are her elder, and also my elder. It is normal for an elder to ask these questions."
What they said made Old Mrs. Guan feel warm in her heart, as if she had really become their elder. She liked this feeling very much.
"Nuannuan is smart and kind, and Comrade Xiaojiang is also a sensible and good child. The two of you are a perfect match. Grandma is very optimistic about you."
"Thank you, grandma." Jiang Ye said to Mrs. Guan, but his eyes were looking at Xu Nuannuan: "Meeting Nuannuan is the greatest luck of my life. The fact that Nuannuan agreed to be with me is the greatest blessing of my life."
Xu Nuannuan pursed her lips and smiled. Fortunately, Jiang Ye was a person of this era, otherwise she felt that he would say something like "I saved the galaxy in my previous life."
"Woof woof woof."
A burst of barking and squeaking sounds came, and the three of them looked towards the source of the sound. They saw Tuanzi had caught a big rat and was pressing it with his claws. The rat made a squeaking sound in his mouth, as if scolding Tuanzi: "A dog is catching a rat, why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Seeing this scene, Xu Nuannuan, Jiang Ye and Old Lady Guan all laughed.
Jiang Ye walked over and put the shovel against the mouse's head. After Tuanzi let go, he hit the mouse to death with the shovel, picked it up and threw it over the wall.
Tuanzi ran to Xu Nuannuan with its tail wagging. Xu Nuannuan picked it up and subconsciously kissed it on the face.
"Tuanzi is great, he even helps me clean up the rats."
Jiang Ye, who had just thrown the mouse away and turned around, saw this scene and couldn't help feeling jealous.
His wife hasn't kissed him yet, but he kissed a dog first.
Suddenly I thought, am I not even as good as that dog?
What's wrong with wanting to compete with a dog for affection?
Xu Nuannuan's attention was all on Tuanzi, and she didn't notice his expression that was about to turn sour.
After Jiang Ye sat down, he couldn't help but look at Xu Nuannuan's charming lips like petals, with resentment in his eyes. When would his wife kiss him?
Xu Nuannuan picked up a piece of rabbit meat for Tuanzi and put it in Tuanzi's dog bowl. Tuanzi sniffed it and thought it didn't taste very good. Without any hesitation, it ran away without eating half a bite.
Xu Nuannuan shook her head helplessly. Since the dog was so disrespectful, there was nothing she could do.
She looked at Jiang Ye, and Jiang Ye said, "This time it was Jiang Yang who cooked the meat." He would never admit that he cooked it.
Even the dog despises him, so I'm afraid my wife will also despise him because of the dog.
He bent down and stretched out his hand to hug Tuanzi: "Little dog, can you hold me for a while?"
There is no other way. In order to please his wife, he must gain her favor in front of her dog and make her dog like him as well.
Tuanzi looked at him in confusion, and for Xu Nuannuan's sake, rubbed its head against his palm. Then Jiang Ye picked it up, gently stroked its back with one hand, and carefully smoothed its fur.
Xu Nuannuan couldn't help but laugh at the way Jiang Ye tried to please her dog.
Jiang Ye had some things to do at home, so he left after a while.
Mrs. Guan asked Xu Nuannuan what kind of work she usually did. Xu Nuannuan said, "I've been herding sheep these days."
"Grazing sheep? Is there much grass here?"
"There is grass at the foot of the mountain, and sometimes we go up there to graze sheep."
"That must be fun." Mrs. Guan suddenly remembered the beautiful mountains and rivers, the white sheep, and the green land. She couldn't help but want to go and take a look: "Nuannuan, do you think I am a burden? I want to go herding sheep with you."
Xu Nuannuan didn't expect that Mrs. Guan, such an elegant and dignified old lady, actually liked to play so much. Perhaps everyone has a playful nature, no matter how old they are or what their identity or status is. The older they get, the more like a child they become.
"Grandma, we are herding sheep at the foot of the mountain today. Let's go there together later."
"well."
Before they set off, Guan Yurong arrived.
The moment Guan Yurong saw Xu Nuannuan, she was stunned by her beauty.
This girl is so pretty, what does her mother look like? I hope she doesn't have the appearance characteristics of Mrs. Guan and Mr. Guan.
Xu Nuannuan saw a strange woman coming in. The woman looked about the same age as her mother, and was dressed very capablely, like a government official.
It should be Mrs. Guan’s daughter, Guan Yurong.
Sure enough, she heard Old Lady Guan ask, "Yurong, why are you here?"
"Mom, you haven't been home yet. I thought you might be having dinner here with the educated youth Xu, but I was a little worried that you might get lost, so I came to check on you."
