Qin Ye was furious that his sister had used all her cunning on him, but he couldn't say it out loud. He was incredibly frustrated!
Seeing Qin Xiaoxiao anxiously giving Su Lu meaningful glances, Qin Ye sighed inwardly, "Since we've already run into each other, let's eat together."
Finally, Qin Xiaoxiao got Qin Ye's approval and was secretly delighted. She gave Su Lu a wink.
Su Lu accepted the order smoothly, and quickly poured Qin Ye another glass of water, saying in a serious tone, "Xiao Xiao and I aren't hungry, you and your wife can eat, brother."
Qin Ye chuckled, "Oh, really? Okay then. We won't stand on ceremony when the food is ready. After all, we're all family, no need to be so polite."
"Su Yun, eat more later. If you can't finish, take it home. You and Su Yu will have dinner ready for dinner tonight."
When Qin Xiaoxiao heard that Qin Ye wouldn't let them sit with him, she panicked and quickly said, "How can that be? Such a joyous occasion, and there's not even anyone to say anything celebratory. People will laugh at us later."
Brother, sister-in-law, don't worry. You should have everything others have. We'll definitely make sure you eat and drink well.
Damn! I'm not pretending anymore, I confess, I'm here to rip off the big spenders.
Seeing that Qin Xiaoxiao had finally revealed her purpose, Qin Ye couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, but he still maintained a solemn expression and said somewhat reluctantly, "That's right, then... I'll have to trouble you."
Sigh, his sister, she gets the benefits but still acts innocent.
But what can he do? He can only pamper and spoil him; he's used to it anyway.
Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Lu both breathed a sigh of relief and stopped saying any more polite words, for fear that Qin Ye would change his mind.
A short while later, Qin Hai finished cooking and had the waiter bring the dishes up. He then continued cooking for other customers in the kitchen.
After the food was served, the four of them buried themselves in their food, especially Su Lu and Qin Xiaoxiao, whose chopsticks were practically dancing in the air.
After eating and drinking their fill, the four headed straight to the supply and marketing cooperative. Qin Xiaoxiao bought two bottles of malted milk powder, a bag of milk powder, two bottles of honey, two bottles of canned fruit, two boxes of face cream, and two kilograms of bright red yarn.
Qin Xiaoxiao stuffed all the things into Qin Ye's arms and looked at him with a smile.
"Brother, when you go to my sister-in-law's family home in a few days, please bring these things with you as a token of our family's appreciation. Also, a few days ago, Su Lu hunted some pheasants and rabbits, and we'll make them into cured meat and bring them over as well."
Also, I still have quite a few mushrooms that I picked from the mountain in the fall. I'll take them back with me later, and you can take them with you too.
"There's still something missing. Go home and discuss it with Grandma. If you need anything and can't buy it, I'll find a way to get it for you."
She might be freeloading, but the main point is to have fun and be lively. However, Qin Xiaoxiao isn't the kind of person who only knows how to take advantage of others; she's quite generous.
Qin Ye looked at the thing in his arms in surprise, then looked up at Qin Xiaoxiao with emotion.
"Weren't these bought for yourself?"
Qin Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at Qin Ye, "It's not like I'm not living a normal life. Why would I buy so much stuff for no reason?"
You're going to the Su family soon, so you can't embarrass the Qin family or my sister-in-law.
Our Qin family is a well-known family in the city. Although we are from the countryside, we never neglect etiquette.
Not to brag, but our Qin family isn't short of these things, and I, Qin Xiaoxiao, am not short of money either.
We need to save face for my sister-in-law. I don't expect her parents to think highly of us, but we need to show them our attitude and let them know their daughter hasn't married the wrong person, that the Qin family can support my sister-in-law, and that they can rest assured.
Not only were Qin Ye and Su Yun moved, but even Su Lu looked at Qin Xiaoxiao with sparkling eyes.
His wife is so generous! She never skimps on appearances.
Qin Ye accepted Qin Xiaoxiao's kindness. He didn't want to cause trouble for his sister in public and become a laughing stock. At the same time, he secretly resolved to become strong and be a support for his sister. Even if his sister and brother-in-law did nothing in the future, he could still support them.
The four of them went to see Sun Zhirou again, and unsurprisingly, Sun Zhirou bought them a lot of nice things. Although Qin Ye paid for them, some things cannot be bought with money.
Su Yun was moved again. He held Sun Zhirou's hand and said many nice things to her, which made Sun Zhirou very happy. She exclaimed that her nephew had found a good match, and they would feel more at ease entrusting Qin Ye to Su Yun in the future.
The four of them left the supply and marketing cooperative and headed straight to the movie theater. With no other choice, they watched "The Red Detachment of Women," which thrilled Qin Xiaoxiao.
This was Qin Xiaoxiao's first time entering a movie theater from the 1970s. The theater was pitch black and there were no rows of fixed seats, but rather rows of long benches.
After waiting quite a while, the movie finally started. Qin Xiaoxiao sat next to Su Lu, happily eating sunflower seeds in one hand and soda in the other.
Seeing this, Qin Ye, who was sitting on the other side, wanted to sigh again.
She never forgets to eat, no matter where she goes; I don't know where she gets so many sunflower seeds.
Qin Ye's thoughts were racing, and he soon thought of his own private plot of land.
Or, how about we plant some more sunflower seeds in our private plot in a few days? Otherwise, what will his little one eat when he's watching the fun in the fall?
Even the most abundant sunflower seeds will eventually run out. I'll plant more tomorrow and send them all to my sister when autumn comes.
It was already 2:30 pm when the four of them came out of the movie theater.
The four of them looked around and decided to go to the state-run restaurant again to bring back dinner so they wouldn't have to cook it again.
Furthermore, Qin Ye also wanted Su Yun to bring Su Yu to his home for a meal today, firstly to formally recognize them as relatives and to celebrate.
After getting the food, the four of them hurried back.
Qin Ye rode his bicycle with Su Yun beside the oxcart. The four of them talked as they traveled and soon entered the village.
As soon as I entered the village, I saw a group of people gathered around from a distance, making a lot of noise. I had no idea what had happened.
Old Huang shooed Old Huang to the side of the road and looked up.
"What happened?"
Turning back to Qin Xiaoxiao and the others, he said, "Xiaoxiao, you and Su Lu stay here for now, I'll go over and see..."
As they were talking, Old Huang looked up and saw that Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Lu were nowhere to be seen; the two had long since disappeared.
Old Huang turned around, wanting to complain to Qin Ye that his sister and brother-in-law were moving too fast, but Qin Ye was nowhere to be seen.
Old Huang twitched his lips, shook his head, and drove the oxcart back to the village.
Qin Xiaoxiao and Su Lu had jumped off the oxcart long before Old Huang spoke. When he turned around, the two of them ran past him on the other side, heading straight for the source of the gossip.
When the two arrived, the crowd had already begun to disperse, indicating that they were clearly late.
Disappointment appeared on Qin Xiaoxiao's and Su Lu's faces at the same time, but when they saw Aunt Song, their eyes lit up and they pushed through the crowd to rush towards her.
Aunt Song was walking home listlessly with her head down when she was stopped halfway.
She was already in a bad mood when someone blocked her way home. Aunt Song was immediately furious and was about to curse when she saw Qin Xiaoxiao looking at her with a worried expression.
I took my child to the hospital for a shot last night, so I didn't write it down. I'll be back to normal in a couple more days. I'm so sorry, ladies!
