Sigh!
Why aren't you going back? Stay here for the New Year!
Just looking at these people makes me feel terrible!
I was really looking forward to it before I arrived, but once I got here, all I wanted to do was leave as soon as possible!
It's best to avoid contact with them unless it's absolutely necessary. There are quite a few of these strange and troublesome relatives; it's better to just let them go!
The second and third wives were naturally unwilling for them to leave like this, and they tried their best to persuade them to stay. They hadn't even gotten the ideas they wanted yet, how could they just let them go back like this? If they went back, when would they ever have such an opportunity again?
However, the eldest branch of the family respected the Mo family's wishes and decided that if they wanted to go back, then they should go back. They immediately packed their things and sent them back to the Mo family!
There's no reason to go back empty-handed, nor is there any reason to accept all the gifts!
The Mo family brought a lot of things, so the return gifts naturally couldn't be too meager either. Sure enough, after sorting through them, a whole bunch of them still came up.
Since the Mo family brought it all, did they really intend to take it back? Isn't that just a joke? Isn't it tiring to bring it back and forth? Why bother?
They originally intended to bring it as a gift to the Zhou family to supplement their living conditions and make their lives a little better. Even if it's not a long-term solution, it can at least improve their meals!
Therefore, the Mo family was unwilling to take the gifts back. If they wanted to give something in return, it should be something within the Zhou family's means, something they could afford to send. That would be fine!
The Mo family was unwilling to accept the gifts, but the second and third branches of the Zhou family were very happy to accept them. While they seemed to complain about why so many gifts were brought, they still left the gifts behind!
Hmm! It's just like during Chinese New Year, when you give someone a red envelope and say "no, no" while opening your pocket as wide as possible so they can stuff the red envelope into it!
It's so funny to look at!
Su Nanxi didn't want to watch these actors put on a show; it was really annoying. "Alright! Just accept everything we brought! We won't interfere with how you divide it! If you want a return gift according to custom, then give us a basket of bean sprouts!"
The room fell silent for a moment, and after a while, Mrs. Li asked uncertainly, "Just... just a basket of bean sprouts?"
"Hmm! Just one basket of bean sprouts! That's enough! No more."
The second and third wives' faces instantly lit up with bright smiles. "Great!"
That way they can get more good stuff!
Besides, these bean sprouts don't belong to them. If anyone should be giving them away, it should be the eldest son's family. They don't need to give anything; they only profit and don't lose!
This couldn't be better!
"Sister-in-law, Yuzhu, hurry up and get a basket of bean sprouts ready! So Yuqing and the others can take them back later!"
Li said happily, "These bean sprouts are really delicious. We don't usually get to eat them! Yuzhu keeps a close eye on them and sells them all!"
Su Nanxi showed no reaction; she didn't like hearing these words and automatically filtered them out.
Seeing that Wang and Zhou Yuzhu were still standing there without getting on the bean sprouts, he urged them, "Go ahead! We love bean sprouts, they're so tender and delicious! We don't need much, just enough for one meal, otherwise they'll be too tender to handle!"
When Wang and Zhou Yuzhu went to the dark room this time, they were not willing to return with only such a small amount of things. This was too little and really looked bad!
How could they possibly give it to them?
It's not that they're unwilling to give, it's just that the amount is too small to be worthwhile!
But Su Nanxi insisted, sigh! I guess I'll just have to bite the bullet and do it anyway!
The Mo family probably doesn't lack anything. If they could go back empty-handed, they probably would have just gotten in their car and left!
Su Nanxi had indeed thought about it, but given the nature of their folk culture, she couldn't go too far and give others something to talk about or cause trouble!
Grandpa and Grandma Zhou were very reluctant to part with their daughter, their faces full of sadness. They didn't know when they would see each other again after this meeting!
Su Nanxi shook her head. The journey wasn't far, and it would be easy to see each other again!
Perhaps it was because of their old age and kind hearts that they were easily saddened, but the two old people had tears in their eyes, which really made Old Mrs. Mo feel very sad and she was so choked up that she couldn't speak!
Ah! I dread parting the most!
So many words to say, so much sadness welling up inside!
But in the end, we still have to leave!
Perhaps because they were worried that the Mo family would take the things back, and were too focused on it, the second and third branches of the Zhou family did not bring up any money-making ideas later.
In the end, the Zhou family's eldest branch couldn't save face, so they simply gave them some pastries and fruits in return. They couldn't be too stingy or look bad!
"Third cousin-in-law! Come visit again when you have time! You're welcome to come anytime! Hey! I guess I'll be busy going around for a while!"
Zhou Yuzhu followed for a short distance, feeling very reluctant to part, but she knew that they would eventually go far away.
Su Nanxi, sitting on the donkey cart, urged her to go back, "Okay! Go back! The sun is blazing, you'll get all dark soon! If you keep going, you'll end up at the Mo family's house! Go back!"
"Okay!" Zhou Yuzhu reluctantly stopped, took a few more steps forward, waved her hand, and shouted, "Be careful on the road!"
The Mo family all looked at her. "Alright! Let's go back!"
Zhou Yuzhu only left after she could no longer see him.
"Sigh! This girl is good; let's try our best to get out of this mountain village!"
Looking at the blurred distant view, Su Nanxi muttered to herself.
Mo Qinghe didn't want his wife to be sad, "Yes! Honey, you have to trust your own judgment!"
Su Nanxi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled. Oh right, this is the person she chose!
You have to believe!
Her judgment is probably quite good!
That girl is someone who refuses to admit defeat and can endure hardship without fear of fatigue!
Given time, they will surely be able to carve out their own niche!
Thinking of this, Su Nanxi secretly rejoiced. She had good taste; look, she had chosen a handsome husband and a family that treated her very well!
Mmm! I'm so happy!
This is a wonderful thing that so many people can only dream of!
Even in modern society, things might not be so smooth. After all, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the conflicts between sisters-in-law, are age-old and difficult problems to solve!
It seems Su Nanxi hasn't encountered any of these things. Is she lucky? Is she happy?
Wow! Thinking about it like that instantly cheered me up!
What else is there to be sad about!
She can't take her good fortune for granted!
Contentment brings happiness!
The more you think, the more worries you have, the more you want, and the less happy you become!
What is the purpose of life?
Anyway, we all have to go through those decades of life. We can't control material possessions, but we can control our mindset and emotions!
Hmm! If you broaden your perspective, it seems like many things aren't worth worrying about!
"Wife, what are you thinking about? You look so happy! Can you tell me and make your husband happy too?"
When Mo Qinghe saw Su Nanxi smiling happily, he was also happy, but he also wanted to share his wife's happiness!
He wanted to be a part of the happy things his wife wanted to do; after all, he was her right-hand man, how could she be without him!
Su Nanxi had no idea what Mo Qinghe was thinking. She winked at him playfully, "Guess!"
Unbelievable! My wife is flirting with me!
