While chatting and laughing, Yiyami had already prepared the meal.
When everyone sat down to eat, they couldn't help but sigh at Yi Yami's excellent cooking skills, and praised Old Lady Yi and Second Brother Yi for being so lucky.
Yi Yami was a little shy and changed the subject, "Grandpa, Grandma, you said that my eldest cousin is getting engaged. Can I know which girl he is getting engaged to?"
"Of course you can. You are his sister, so there is nothing you cannot know. He is 20 years old and still undecided. The kids next door are already several years older than him." He Heihu said while eating.
"Does my cousin have someone he likes, which is why he's getting married so late?" Yiyami's gossipy heart was burning.
"I don't know if he has someone he likes, but he keeps putting it off. Until now, he still isn't willing to look at other girls!" He Heihu sighed.
"Then you can ask him. What if my cousin has another girl he likes and has been delaying marriage? Maybe he is waiting for someone?" Yi Yami reminded.
He Shoushan and Du Hongying looked at each other and seemed to have decided on the candidate.
"If you have to say who this kid likes, I probably know who it is!" He Shoushan said.
"Who is it?" Yiyami asked curiously.
"She should be Du Yinye, the granddaughter of the wealthy Mr. Du in our village." He Shoushan took a mouthful of rice, picked up a piece of meat, and then said.
"Then if you know, why don't you propose marriage?" Yiyami was even more puzzled.
"You don't know, Xiaomi, that Mr. Du's family is one of the richest in the village. He is very particular about marrying off his daughters and granddaughters. He thinks that his daughters or granddaughters must marry into a good family. If it is not a good family, no one will marry. Moreover, every marriage of the Du family's daughters can bring rich rewards to the Du family. For example, the eldest daughter, Du Zhiqian, married the richest man in Huainan, the Geng family, and revived the Du family's dying business! The second daughter, Du Zhilan, married a sixth-rank official and now lives in Kyoto. All of a sudden, the Du family is rich and powerful! The youngest daughter, Du Zhifu, married a martial artist. Now the Du family has both the underworld and the white world. You don't know that in our village, the Du family can be said to be all-powerful, and no one dares to test its edge!" He Shoushan ate a large piece of meat and said while chewing.
"Look at our family. We are generations of peasants. Our family is as poor as can be. How can we give any wealth to the Du family?" He Shoushan sighed helplessly.
"Dad, don't talk about yourself like that. Although we are poor, we are poor with dignity. We don't rely on anyone. We make a living with our own hands. No matter how good the Du family is, I won't marry her. My son He Tuyuan is also handsome, and that guy is tall and strong. He will make a name for himself in his studies next year. Who knows, who will choose whom, don't you think?" He Heihu was not happy to hear He Shoushan slandering his own son, and couldn't help but argue.
"Oh, wait until you finish your studies. You are old now. If you don't hurry up and find a good girl to marry, you will be a bachelor in the end. Let's see which good girl will want you?" He Shoushan muttered.
"Brother Tuyuan, when are we going to take the exam?" Yiyami asked in confusion.
"It will be soon, next spring." Zhao Hongying said.
"There's no rush, grandpa and grandma. My suggestion is that you don't urge your cousin to look at other girls. Let him prepare for the exam with peace of mind first. Nothing else matters. Let's talk about it after the exam. As for Du Yinye, do you know what she means to your cousin?" Yi Yami gave advice seriously.
"I don't know. We rarely see this girl. The Du family built a very tall building in the village. Their doors are higher than those of other people's houses. The thresholds are up to people's knees. Every time you enter the house, you have to step in first." Zhao Hongying thought for a while and answered.
"I see..." Yimei scratched her head.
"It's not a big problem. Let's wait until my cousin finishes the exam. There's no rush!" Yiyami comforted the two old people.
After dinner, He Huaizhu and He Huaixiu washed the dishes.
"Sister, Xiaomi is really different now," He Huaixiu said as she approached He Huaizhu.
"What's the difference?" He Huaizhu asked puzzledly.
"There is no difference. I still feel like she is my daughter!" He Huaizhu continued.
"It's really different. The Xiaomi before would never talk so much with Dad, Mom and Big Brother, and argue with them and make logical analyses." He Huaixiu expressed his opinion.
"Then Xiaomi has been reborn, right? This time, thanks to the blessing of our ancestors, our Xiaomi has been completely renewed and his brain is working better!" He Huaizhu said with a smile.
He Huaixiu followed with a smile, "That's true, we should thank our ancestors!"
In the yard, Yiyami was arranging the accommodation for tonight. "Gu Beijian, you and Brother Yang can squeeze into one room, and then grandpa and grandma can sleep in another. Shengsheng and Gangan, you two go sleep with Xiaomai, and your uncle can sleep in your room. My aunt and I will sleep. Okay, perfect, let's do it this way, everyone go get some water, wash up, and have a rest!" Yiyami sighed that her arrangement was simply perfect, but she also realized that if a few more people came, the house would not be big enough to accommodate them. She thought about it and decided to buy land nearby and tear it down and rebuild.
Several people washed up and went back to their rooms.
Originally, Gu Beijian was a little reluctant, but when he saw so many guests at the Yi family, he felt reluctant in his heart but didn't say anything.
When He Huaixiu learned that he was going to sleep with Yi Yami, he jumped up with joy.
"That's great!" He Huaixiu said excitedly.
"Girl, are you so excited because you don't want to sleep with me?" He Huaizhu teased her.
"No, I didn't. I just don't want to break up you and your brother-in-law~" He Huaixiu responded with a joking look.
