Wang Meilan and her mother did not dare to go far. They just wandered around the area and then booked a room in a nearby guesthouse. After leaving the guesthouse, they bought some gifts and went to the door of the first floor of the department store to wait for Tian Xia.

Soon Tian Xia came out from get off work and saw that the mother and daughter had a few more gifts in their hands. She smiled and said to them politely: "What do you think you are doing? This is just extra money!"

"Auntie, this is as it should be. You came to our house with something in your hands, didn't you? This is called reciprocity."

"You are such a good talker, kid. You are so polite." Tian Xia said with a smile.

Tian Xia's home was several stops away from the department store. She took her daughter and her daughter on a bus and arrived at her street a few minutes later.

After getting off the car, Tian Xia went to the farmers' market to buy some vegetables.

Since they have come from so far away, we have to cook some decent dishes.

Seeing this, Wang Meilan said politely, "Xiaoxia, you still have to go to work in the afternoon. If you want to, let's just eat outside for a while."

"That's fine. You guys have finally come here, how can we just mess around? Besides, there are several grandpas at home waiting for dinner. Even if you guys come, I still have to cook. If you cook for a meal, you will be hungry."

Seeing Tian Xia say this, Wang Meilan didn't feel comfortable saying anything more.

Tian Xia bought a fish and a piece of pork, and then some fresh vegetables. When they returned with their things, Tian Xia's daughter-in-law Yuan Yuan was the only one at home, as the other grandfathers had not returned yet.

Wang Meilan asked Qin Li to chat with Tian Xia's daughter-in-law in the living room and get to know each other, while she went into the kitchen to help Tian Xia cook.

Tian Xia lives in a residential building built by the steel factory for its employees. The building looks very new, so it must have been occupied not long ago.

It is a three-bedroom, one-living room suite, but the area is a bit small, estimated to be about 89 square meters.

Although it is smaller than Wang Wenbin's house of more than 100 square meters, this is the provincial capital after all, and it is already very good to have such a house.

The house was in perfect order, and one could tell at a glance that the hostess was very capable.

There is nothing special about the furnishings in the room, just ordinary furniture.

Yuan Yuan didn't know whether she loved to talk too much or she just wanted to talk to Qin Li, but it was usually Qin Li who took the initiative to find topics to talk about.

Once Qin Li stopped talking, the atmosphere between them became awkward.

This feeling made Qin Li feel a little embarrassed. At this moment, there were sudden footsteps and coughing outside the door.

Yuan Yuan hurriedly got up to open the door. As the door creaked open, Xiao Quande and his wife walked in one after another.

Xiao Quande seemed to be going farther than Tian Xia, so he should be farther away from Wu.

Half of her hair was white. She was quite tall, even a little short among the men.

But he looks very solid, giving people a very honest feeling.

The two brothers who came in later couldn't tell who was Xiao Wang just by looking at their faces.

The main reason is that the two brothers are only one year apart in age. One is taller and the other is shorter, and their faces look somewhat alike, the kind that are good-looking but also ugly.

늀 has a very ordinary appearance.

Although she still didn't know which one was the unmarried second child, Qin Li was already a little disappointed.

But then I thought, he is from the provincial capital. If he were in a small county town with this kind of appearance, I am afraid there would be girls competing to marry him.

Seeing that the three of them had already entered the house, Qin Li hurriedly stood up. When she was worried that no one would introduce them, she saw Tian Xia and Wang Meilan coming out of the kitchen smiling.

"Old Xiao, we have a guest at home today. This is my good sister Meilan who I always talk about to you. She brought her daughter to visit the provincial capital today."

After that, he introduced Wang Meilan, "Meilan, this is my old man."

After Tian Xia married Lao Xiao, Lao Xiao also went back to the county town with her twice. Fortunately, Tian Xia did not see him during those two visits, so the two did not know each other.

The two greeted each other, and Tian Xia introduced her two sons to Wang Meilan.

"This is the old Xiao Zhan." Tian Xia pointed at the slightly taller one.

Xiao Zhan hurriedly greeted Wang Meilan, and then Tian Xia pointed to the shorter one next to her and introduced him, "This is the second child, Xiao Sheng."

Xiao Sheng also said hello to Wang Meilan and sat on the sofa at the side.

Tian Xia did not forget Qin Li. After introducing her, she took Qin Li to introduce her to her family. "This is your Aunt Wang's daughter Qin Li. She is very sensible and well-behaved. By the way, your Aunt Wang and her family brought Li Li here to play. I like to go out all day. You two brothers know where to have fun. Introduce Qin Li. It's not easy for her to come to our provincial capital. Don't let her come in vain."

Xiao Zhan thought about it and named several parks and zoos.

Xiao Sheng sat there and looked at Qin Li twice, then glanced away. He remained silent and no one knew what he was thinking.

After everyone was introduced, Tian Xia and Wang Meilan went back to the kitchen to get busy.

After the meal was on the table, the family finished their lively and noisy meal, and it was almost time to go to work.

Xiao Quande and Xiao Zhan left first. Yuan Yuan, who was working in the street, packed up and left too.

Tian Xia had taken a leave of absence in the afternoon. Seeing that her little son had not come out of the room, she called out to him.

"Xiao Sheng, why are you still leaving? If you're any later you'll fall ill."

Xiao Sheng's voice came from inside the room, "I have something to do this afternoon, so I asked the team leader for leave to work overtime."

"What's up with you? You even worked overtime?"

Xiao Sheng didn't say anything else in the room. Tian Xia waited for a while and when she saw no response, she smiled helplessly at Wang Meilan.

"My son, you are my mother! Look, you haven't married yet, but you are so attentive to me. Who knows what it will be like when you marry?"

Wang Meilan knew that Tian Xia was just complaining, so she went along with her words and comforted the two.

"It's the same even if the child is born. How can I obey you in everything? It's wrong for me to argue with you."

Tian Xia smiled and didn't continue talking about this topic. Instead, she glanced at the clock on the wall.

"Meilan, it's early. I don't have work this afternoon either. Do you want me to take you guys for a walk?"

Wang Meilan and her daughter came here just to hang out, but since the host had brought it up, they had no choice but to go. After all, they came here under the pretext of having fun, so they had to pretend.

So Tian Xia took out her bag, put the key in it, and led the mother and daughter out.

Tian Xia suggested taking them to the zoo first. She thought that there was no zoo in the small county town and that they, mother and daughter, would like it.

The zoo is a bit far and takes more than 20 minutes by bus.

After they got there, when the three of them were almost done touring the zoo, they suddenly heard a man and a woman arguing next to the rockery.

The three of them looked in that direction at the same time, but saw a familiar figure.
