"There is no thin one, Mom and Dad, let me introduce you, this is Sheng Yanchuan, and these are my parents"
"Hello, uncle and aunt, I am Sheng Yanchuan." Sheng Yanchuan stepped forward and introduced himself to Nan's father and mother.
When Nan's father saw him, he snorted coldly as if he had agreed. Nan's mother looked normal.
"Sit down, sit down, don't be so restrained." Nan's mother was a typical southern woman, with a gentle appearance and a gentle personality. She had never been angry with anyone in her life. Even if she was unwilling at this moment, her upbringing since childhood could not make her treat others coldly.
"Thank you, Auntie," Sheng Yanchuan said, and took the largest of the three packages that had just been placed at the door, took out the contents and placed them on the coffee table.
"Uncle and aunt, this is the gift I brought to you. I wonder if it suits your taste."
"You are so polite. You are here, so what else do you want to bring?" Nan's mother was not curious about the contents of the package. She had never lacked anything since she was a child. Naturally, she was not curious about these things now.
Another reason is... It's not that she looks down on Sheng Yanchuan, but after all, he is a villager. Nan's mother doesn't think he will bring anything that she would like. But Nan's mother still respects Sheng Yanchuan.
"It's okay, Auntie, this is what I should do"
"Yanchuan brought you something good, you're really not curious?" Nanqiao said to his mother while sitting on the sofa. Nanqiao could guess what his mother was thinking.
"Oh? Qiaoqiao, now that you mention that, I am a little curious. What good stuff is it? Can you show it to me?"
"Sure, I'll give it to you," Sheng Yanchuan said as he took out a very simple wooden box from the package.
"Auntie, this is for you. I know you like Chinese medicine. Here is a set of ancient acupuncture books and a set of gold needles that I asked someone to find in my hometown. I hope you like them."
When Nan's mother heard Sheng Yanchuan say that it was a set of needlework books and gold needles, she was slightly surprised. When she opened the box, she found a yellowed thread-like book and a set of rolled-up leather packages.
Nan's mother opened it and took a look. The book was an ancient book, the golden needle was a rare pure gold needle, and even the box was not an ordinary item. Nan's mother's eyes flashed with doubt. These did not seem to be things that Sheng Yanchuan's family could afford.
"Is this... too expensive?" Nan's mother liked the gift very much, but it was a bit expensive. With Sheng Yanchuan's family background, it wouldn't be easy to come up with these things. Nan's mother said as she looked at Nan Qiao.
"It's okay, Mom. As long as you like it."
"I like it very much, thank you." Nan's mother accepted it very frankly when she heard Nan Qiao say that, but she had some doubts in her heart... Could these things be bought by Nan Qiao for Sheng Yanchuan?
But this thought only flashed through her mind. Before she could think about it carefully, she was interrupted by Nan's father's cough.
"What's wrong? Is your throat uncomfortable again? I cooked pear soup for you but you refused to drink it." Nan's mother said as she prepared to go to the kitchen to get the pear soup.
"Dad, are you sick?"
"Yeah, I had a little cough," Father Nan said with an unnatural look. He did have a little cough some time ago, but it's gone now. He just coughed because he saw his wife being too nice to that man.
"Uncle, if you have a cough, it's better to drink some of this. It's autumn pear paste, which can clear the heart and moisten the lungs. It's made by my mother herself." Sheng Yanchuan said as he took out a few bottles of autumn pear paste from the package and placed them on the table.
"Yeah," Nan's father responded, and said nothing more.
Nan's mother heard it, glanced at Nan's father, took a bottle and asked, "How do you drink this?"
"Auntie, just put two spoons of this in warm water and dissolve it," Sheng Yanchuan explained.
"Then I'll try. Your uncle is prone to coughing during the summer-autumn season, and it's very hard to get better. If this works, it will be a great help."
"Auntie, please try it first. If it works, I will send it to you later."
"Why send it? I'm fine now. No need." Father Nan interrupted the two.
Nan's mother glared at Nan's father and went straight to the kitchen. After a while, she brought out a cup of
At first, Nan's father refused to take it. In the end, Nan's mother secretly kicked him. Then Nan's father reluctantly took it. After taking a bite, he found that it tasted good and he was not very resistant.
When Nan's mother saw him drinking, she sat down next to Nan Qiao and held his hand tightly, refusing to let go.
"I heard that your mother is the village women's director? What about the rest of your family?" Father Nan sighed but still asked. He would have to face it sooner or later.
"I have an older brother and a younger sister. My parents, my older brother and my older sister-in-law are all ordinary villagers, and my younger sister is still in school."
"Does your eldest brother's family live with your parents?"
"My eldest brother's family has separated from my parents and lives in the old house."
"Divide the family?" Nan's father frowned and asked, as if he had not expected the family to be divided. The villagers were more particular about these things. They would not divide the family while the elderly were still alive, but they divided the family while both parents were alive. Was there any contradiction?
"Well, we separated because my parents didn't agree with some of my sister-in-law's ideas. They didn't want the two families to have more disputes and hurt feelings, so they separated. Now the two families don't live far from each other," Sheng Yanchuan said very frankly.
"So do you do farm work at home too?"
"I work as a truck driver in a transport factory in town. If I don't have work on weekdays, I will go back to the village to help out."
"Hmm," Nan's father responded, which was considered as his approval of the answer.
"Well, let's get straight to the point. Nanqiao is our little daughter. She is the apple of my eye. For her, I would give up everything, including my job, reputation, and even my life."
"Dad" Nanqiao also heard his father say this for the first time, and his eyes were sore.
