Jiang Mingli's worry that Shen Yijun would cause trouble did not happen, because Shen Yijun never returned to Hualing Brigade, but took over his father's job and stayed in the provincial capital.
Shen Yijun is a ruthless man. He saw that his father did not agree to transfer the job to him even though he was seriously injured. He was secretly resentful. As soon as Shen Yijun's injury healed, he immediately asked his father to break both legs so that he had to give up his job.
As a result, the Shen family's life became more difficult, and the quarrels became more intense. It was either Li Zhu and Lin Ping arguing, or Lin Ping and Shen Yiyao's wife arguing...
Time passed day by day, and soon it was time for the end of the year holiday.
What major events have happened to Jiang Shushu recently? First, her niece, Jiang Jiaxiu, married her high school classmate and first love just two months after graduating from high school. It was incredibly fast, and now Jiang Jiaxiu is two months pregnant. Because of this, Jiang Shushu has been teased less about when she's getting married, and people say she's behind the times as an aunt.
Second, after Jiang Jiaxiu got married, Jiang Xiaocheng took Zhang Meihua with him to join the army, and Zhang Meihua is now pregnant.
Third, Jiang Xiaoan went on a blind date and found a partner. The partner was a second-grade teacher at Xingling Primary School, who was Jiang Xiaoan’s former junior high school classmate.
Everyone has their own good development.
Jiang Shushu returned to Jiangjia Village with the newly distributed New Year's goods. Xu Hehua took the things and asked, "Shushu, where's Xiaobei? When will he have his holiday? He's alone. Will he come to our place to celebrate the New Year?"
"He's going to work. He won't have a holiday until the 29th. I asked him about it. He'll come over as soon as they have a holiday on the afternoon of the 29th. He'll celebrate the New Year with us, but he has to go back to work on the third day of the New Year."
"Haha... I'm glad you can come. I'll make more rice dumplings and meatballs. Xiaobei likes them."
Jiang Shushu: "..." Open your mouth, shut up, Xiaobei, Xiaobei, if you don't know, you might think he is your biological son and I am your daughter-in-law. Oh, okay, I found this person myself, so if I like her, I like her. It's better than quarreling. Jiang Shushu felt happy again when he thought about it.
"Thank you, Mom. I like it too. Make more."
"I can't do without you."
"Did brother say he would come back for the New Year?" It would be better if he didn't come back. Although she didn't hate Jiang Mingli now, she didn't like him either.
"He's not going back. He said he's busy at the factory and has to work overtime during the New Year. He'll be back with the kids on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." Xu Hehua still felt a little disappointed. The family was supposed to have a reunion dinner together, but they couldn't get together because of one problem or another.
Jiang Shushu: "..." It's better not to reply. We don't have to live under the same roof for a few days. I will come back on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and I will just see you for the sake of greeting.
"Mom, don't be sad. Work? There's nothing we can do. We have to understand him. Anyway, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is not far away. You will be able to see them soon."
"I just want my family to have a reunion dinner together."
"There's no separation on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, so we can still have a reunion dinner. I'll be back then."
"Okay, okay, then you can bring Xiaobei with you. He's one of our family members too."
"I'll tell him to try to make time. After all, the police don't always have the final say on their time."
"Okay, just do your best."
On the afternoon of the 29th, Yang Xiaobei came to Jiang's house carrying a lot of bags.
Xu Hehua smiled and said, "You kid, you're here, why are you bringing so many things? We're a family, so don't be so formal. We already have everything at home. Isn't this a waste of money?"
"Auntie, don't be shy. This is the New Year's goods we distributed (half are New Year's goods, half are purchased). I brought it here to celebrate the New Year together. Don't worry, I didn't spend money carelessly."
"Oh my god! The benefits are really good. They are worthy of being the people's police. The benefits are really good."
Jiang Shushu saw so many good things and said: "..." If I don't buy anything in there, I will wash my hair upside down.
The New Year's Eve dinner was very rich, with eight dishes and one soup. Jiang He and Yang Xiaobei drank some wine at the table, and the four of them happily ate and chatted.
As the four of them chatted, they somehow ended up talking about marriage.
Jiang He took a sip of his wine before speaking. "Shushu! Xiaobei! You young people have your own ideas. I didn't intend to interfere, but you've been engaged for over six months. Have you considered when to get married? Before the New Year, your mom and I looked at dates. We have three good dates next year. Do you want to hear them? I'll tell you, okay? March 16th, August 2nd, October 1st."
Jiang Shushu: "..." Are you asking? You're informing me.
Jiang Shushu looked at Yang Xiaobei, and Yang Xiaobei also looked at Jiang Shushu. The two looked at each other, asking each other with their eyes what the other was thinking.
"Uncle, I'll listen to Shushu. I'll discuss it with Shushu later and get back to you."
"Dad, let's eat first. I'll discuss it with Xiaobei later and tell you the result."
"Okay, you guys take your time to discuss it, and let me and your mom know when you have a result."
After dinner, Jiang Shushu and Yang Xiaobei came to the yard.
"What do you think?"
"What do you think?"
Yang Xiaobei: "Shushu, of course I want to get married, but I respect your opinion. What do you think?"
Whether dating or engaged, Jiang Shushu was very satisfied with Yang Xiaobei and saw no reason not to get married. After all, even her 18-year-old niece was married, so as a 21-year-old aunt, she should get married.
"I think it's time to get married." Anyway, we have to get married sooner or later.
Yang Xiaobei immediately responded, fearing that Jiang Shushu would regret it if he was a second late, "Then we will get married next year."
"Okay, let's get married next year. Which date do you plan to pick?"
"August 2nd, is that okay?" There's a chance to get a house next May. As long as I work hard and make one more contribution, I'm sure I'll get one. Regardless of whether Shushu lives there or not, since we're getting married, we need our own place. Even if I don't get one, I'll have saved enough to buy one by then. If I don't get one, I'll just buy one.
Jiang Shushu was a little surprised: "Haha...you answered so quickly just now, I thought you would choose March 16th?"
"I also wanted to choose March 16, but time is too tight. I want to give you the best, so August 2 is the best. If the date can be earlier, I will definitely choose the earlier one."
"Actually, there's no need to prepare anything. Let's just have a simple event. You and I are sincere to each other."
"I wanted to give you a surprise, but this is taking a bit long to prepare."
"A surprise? Okay, then, let's set it for August 2nd." Jiang Shushu was afraid that Yang Xiaobei's surprise would be too big, so he quickly turned around and added, "As long as it's from you, it will be a surprise."
"Okay, I'll let you know when my surprise is ready."
Jiang Shushu and his friend went back to the house and told Jiang He and his wife the results of their discussion.
"Dad, Mom, Xiaobei and I just discussed it, and we've set the wedding date as August 2nd."
When Jiang He and his wife heard the date was set, they smiled from ear to ear: "Okay, okay, okay."
