Chapter 73, Alienation (Please recommend)
"So you bought mooncakes too. I bought some too, but these are new flavors. You can try them." He put the mooncakes he bought from the county town in front of Mei Xue and said.
Mei Xue really doesn't like sweets.
Seeing her frown, He Anze explained, "This is salty." Because he didn't eat sweet things, so when he saw it, he bought some back.
When she heard it was salty, Mei Xue's eyes lit up and she took out one, which was a bit big.
After pushing it apart, she divided it into two halves, gave one half to He Anze, and kept the other half in her hand.
It was her first time eating it and she was afraid it wouldn’t taste good, so she ate a little less. There were still a lot of them inside, and if they tasted good she would just eat another one.
Seeing her give him half, He Anze's lost heart instantly returned, "Try it, they all said it's delicious."
Because of He Anze's persistence, the two of them were no longer alienated as at the beginning, and slowly became familiar with each other.
When Grandma He came back, Mei Xue and He Anze started to cook dinner. It was conceivable how long she had been out.
"This is cut thicker and stewed longer, so it's more fragrant than stir-fried braised pork."
"Leave this here, I'll do it, you help me light the fire, I'll cook."
···
Mei Xue was basically sidelined anyway, but she couldn't leave the kitchen and had to stay here the whole time.
"It smells so good. What are you cooking?" Grandma He listened for a while before speaking.
Mei Xue discovered it when grandma came back, but she didn't say anything to make her grandma happy.
"Grandma, you're back. Go wash your face, you'll be able to eat soon." He Anze smiled happily when he saw his grandma coming back.
For some reason, Mei Xue's nervous heart relaxed when she saw her grandma. "Grandma, why did great-grandmother come to see you today?" It was good that she didn't care about what happened last time.
But she knew her grandmother, and there was no way her grandmother would not remember it.
But seeing how excited they were chatting, I had no idea what they were talking about.
"What else can I say? It's Anhua's business. The couple had a fight last night and Anhua's face was scratched." When asked, Grandma He's face looked very bad.
Mei Xue was speechless. A grown man couldn't beat a woman. However, a man who beats a woman is not a good person either.
He Anze listened to his grandmother's words, "Hasn't my cousin and his wife been married for only two years?" It's only been so short a time and the couple is already quarreling like this. How are they going to live their lives in the future?
"Of course, we don't even have a child yet." Grandma He sighed, "Anhua is a coward himself. He can't stand up for himself and can't control his wife. It's normal for them to quarrel."
Mei Xue didn't want to speak too much.
"Then why did grandma come to see you?" He Anze looked defensive.
Seeing him like this, Mei Xue looked at him more and thought to herself that He Anze seemed to dislike this old lady very much.
"What else can you do? Just come to complain to me. Don't worry, grandma is not stupid. I won't interfere in their family affairs." Grandma He knew what her grandson was worried about.
Mei Xue was a little confused and didn't know what they meant, but she was relieved that her grandma didn't bother her.
Family affairs are the most confusing to outsiders.
It's really a tangled mess that can't be sorted out.
"Grandma, you just have to keep in mind. Aunt Cai is not someone you can easily deal with. Don't let yourself be embarrassed by others." He Anze warned her again with concern.
After talking about grandma, he looked at Mei Xue worriedly, "Xiaoxue, keep an eye on grandma when you're at home and don't let her meddle in other people's business. Other people's family affairs are not that easy to manage."
"Yeah." Mei Xue nodded seriously.
The family was harmonious and had a happy dinner. The food was prepared by He Anze, and Mei Xue thought it tasted very good.
My impression of him also improved.
However, what happened at the dinner table made Mei Xue very upset.
"Xiaoxue, what Anze said is right. You did get the marriage certificate, but everyone in the village has to hold a wedding banquet. You haven't held the wedding banquet yet, so it's time to pick a date. Anze happens to be on vacation, so why not hold it on the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
After hearing what her grandson said, Grandma He agreed.
Mei Xue frowned, feeling that she had more troubles since this man came back.
"Grandma, no need. This is good enough. As long as you approve of me, other people are not important." It costs money to hold a wedding banquet, well, she felt a little reluctant in her heart.
"This is etiquette. Xiaoxue, be good and obedient. Let Anze take care of the matter, and you just need to be a beautiful bride." This time, Grandma He stood on He Anze's side.
Wedding wine is a major event in life, how can it be skipped?
"Don't worry, Xiaoxue, I will definitely give you a grand wedding banquet." He Anze assured again.
Mei Xue really wanted to refuse, but after seeing her grandmother's expectant and nervous eyes, she said she would not refuse.
She could only nod and say, "I'll listen to grandma." What else could she do? Leave here?
No, she was reluctant to leave her grandmother who cared about her, and she didn't want to leave this home that made her feel at home.
Seeing that she agreed, He Anze was so happy, "Hehe, okay, Xiaoxue, I will take you to the county town to buy things tomorrow. You can buy whatever you like."
He was so excited that he didn't know how to express it, and he was so excited that he was a little at a loss.
"No need to buy anything. I have everything I need." Mei Xue didn't want to go out with him. If she had the free time, she might as well go to the vegetable garden.
"How can this be possible?" Grandma He was immediately displeased when she heard this. "Xiaoxue, listen to Anze. Go shopping tomorrow. Don't you like that big iron lump? Anze is back soon, so go buy it tomorrow."
Grandma He still remembers the last time Xiaoxue wanted to buy a fan.
When He Anze heard this, he said, "Grandma, what's that big lump of iron?" He would definitely buy her something she liked.
My wallet is now very full.
"It's a big fan. The wind is very strong and it feels cool. It must be more comfortable to sleep with it blowing at night." Grandma He immediately told the story of the fan.
Mei Xue was speechless. Didn’t she really need it?
With the space, she is not afraid of the heat at all, and her body is hundreds of times stronger than the original master.
Plus, she drank space water on a daily basis, so she really didn't feel hot.
"Grandma, no need, I'm not hot."
He Anze could see clearly that his young wife listened to her grandmother in everything. When he mentioned holding a wedding banquet, she looked obviously reluctant, and even looked repulsive and distant.
But when grandma said that, he saw doting in her eyes.
This really surprised him.
I didn't expect that she gets along so well with her grandma.
"It's okay. Let's go shopping tomorrow. You can buy whatever you like. I have money." He Anze acted like a rich man, with the words "I have money" almost written on his face.
There was no other way, and with Grandma He's help, she could only compromise.
Fortunately, at night, the thing that Mei Xue had been worried about did not happen.
