Li Xiaoni was making shoes for the children in the house. When she heard Shi Tou's shout, she put down the shoes in her hand and ran out.
Wang Xiao'e and two other children heard the shouting and ran out quickly after them.
"Auntie, Auntie." Yaya and Dandan shouted happily while running.
"Wanwan, you're finally back. You didn't know that you were alone in the city for a while and there was no news at all. Mom was so worried about you that she couldn't sleep."
As Wang Xiao'e walked out, she smiled and told Su Wan about Li Xiaoni's recent worries.
"Mom, I'm sorry to have made you worry about me." Su Wan said to Li Xiaoni with a hint of apology.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." Li Xiaoni looked at Su Wan's belly with a smile.
Su Wan handed the food in her hand to Shitou, "Here, give it to your brothers and sisters to share."
The three children shouted happily and ran into the house.
"Wanwan, I'm asking you to spend money again. You don't know that these kids have been asking me every day recently, why hasn't Auntie come back yet? I don't know how many times they ask me every day. They know that as long as you come back, there will be delicious food."
Wang Xiao'e said this while smiling and pulling Su Wan's arm affectionately.
She and Li Xiaoni carefully helped Su Wan into the house and talked for a few words. Seeing that it was almost noon, Wang Xiaoe said to Su Wan:
"Wanwan, I'm going to make lunch now. You must eat at home today and you are not allowed to go back to your Su family. Do you hear me?"
Su Wan was planning to do just that. Hearing that, she nodded quickly, "Okay, I won't leave. Let's eat at our house today."
Wang Xiao'e smiled contentedly when she heard this and went out.
Li Xiaoni pulled Su Wan aside and asked her all sorts of questions, wishing she could ask about her recent eating, drinking, and defecation.
At this time, Lu Heping, who had gone out to chop wood, came back and was very happy to see Su Wan.
No matter how life goes on, as long as the family is safe and sound.
Seeing that her parents-in-law were all present, Su Wan said to them, "Dad, Mom, I have something to tell you. Let's find a place."
As she spoke, she glanced at the children who were eating snacks.
Li Xiaoni understood immediately, stood up, took Su Wan's hand and walked towards the room where she lived, and Lu Heping followed behind.
Before matchmaking for Wang Xiao'e, she felt that she should first consult her parents-in-law.
Although her parents-in-law always said that they would not stop Wang Xiao'e from getting married, she still greeted them as the elders of the family, so she showed respect.
"Dad, Mom, I want to introduce someone to my sister-in-law, but I think before I tell my sister-in-law about this, I should first ask you and Dad for your opinions. If you two agree, I will continue to introduce you. If you two disagree, then just treat this matter as something I didn't say."
Li Xiaoni was a little surprised when she heard this. "Who are you introducing? Where is he from?"
"His family is also from the countryside, but they are very close to the county seat, so they can be considered suburban."
Hearing this, Li Xiaoni looked at Lu Heping who was standing beside her, and the smile on her face disappeared.
Everyone is selfish. The three children are still old enough to be taken care of, so of course she hopes that Wang Xiao'e will be there to help her take care of the children.
But she is still young, it is impossible for her to be a widow in their family for the rest of her life.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoni said to Su Wan, "As long as the person is reliable, your father and I will definitely have no objection. I just don't know what kind of person you are talking about is."
"Don't worry about her character, Dad. She is definitely a good-looking girl, but she is a few years older than my sister-in-law."
After listening to this, Li Xiaoni looked at Lu Heping again, and Lu Heping nodded at her.
"Okay, talk to your sister-in-law. If she agrees, you can arrange for them to meet. But your father must be present when they meet. Your sister-in-law has been a fool several times. She doesn't have good judgment. We have to help her keep an eye on things."
"Well, if you're worried, I'll bring you and Dad along when we meet."
Dad, Mom, I just came back to tell you about this matter. I don’t know if they will agree or not, because I asked them to come to their house.”
"Ah, you...you want to let that man come to our house?"
Li Xiaoni looked at Su Wan in surprise, with an unhappy expression on her face.
Lu Heping also looked at Su Wan in surprise, waiting to see what she would say next.
This is her home. Wang Xiao'e is the daughter-in-law that the couple married for their son.
Now that their son is childless, why is it that a man who has nothing to do with them has come to their house?
The thought of living together with my family in the future makes me feel awkward.
"Yes, that's what I told him. But, Mom and Dad, I have some other plans. If you agree with me, we can talk about other things later. If you don't agree, then we haven't discussed this matter yet."
"Then you tell me."
"Dad, Mom, this is what I planned. Let's let the other party come to our house. My sister-in-law and the children will have someone to rely on, so you and Dad don't have to worry about them anymore."
"Then what should I and your dad do? There are so many strange men in the house, I'm afraid... I'm afraid your dad and I won't be used to it." Li Xiaoni asked worriedly.
Su Wan smiled when she heard that, then reached out her hand and gently stroked her belly.
"Look, I'm about to give birth, and someone will need to take care of the baby. My employer in the city has recently given me a pay raise.
If you calculate it, I earn as much as Chengchuan in a month. I definitely won't give up this job.
So, Dad and Mom, you and Dad can come to the city and live with me from now on. You can help me take care of the kids and cook for me every day, and I will support you."
Li Xiaoni was surprised when she heard this, and then asked tentatively: "Wanwan, you said that your salary is not less than Chengchuan? Then...what kind of job is that?"
Su Wan blinked her eyes and said, "Our employer supplies goods to the supply and marketing cooperatives. We earn a lot, so we are paid a high salary."
The couple looked at each other. They were both farmers who seldom went out and had no idea about the city life. They believed what he said immediately.
"Well... if you say so, I think it's okay." Li Xiaoni's face suddenly showed a smile.
After getting their permission, Su Wan was in a good mood. "Since you agree, I will go ask my sister-in-law now."
After saying that, Su Wan opened the door and walked into the kitchen.
Because the meat had just been fried, the kitchen was filled with a strong aroma of meat. Wang Xiao'e was rolling noodles. In order to entertain Su Wan, she specially took out the little white flour in the house.
Seeing Su Wan coming in, she hurriedly said, "Go and have a rest, I'll be well soon."
"Sister-in-law, I have something to tell you."
As Su Wan spoke, she sat down at the door of the stove. The fire in the stove was very strong, and it felt warm against her body.
“Then tell me quickly.” Wang Xiaoe folded the rolled dough, picked up the dough and started cutting it skillfully.
"Sister-in-law, I want to introduce you to someone."
Wang Xiao'e was taking it very seriously. Upon hearing this, she stopped holding the silk with her hand.
"Wanwan, I'm sorry, I don't plan to look for you again."
