Because of the rich ingredients, dinner was also much more sumptuous.
A dish of braised pork with potatoes and a dish of stewed chicken with mushrooms almost made Chen Ruxue cry.
At night, lying in bed, Ye's mother couldn't help but sigh repeatedly, "Old man, you said that the second son and his wife are too wasteful, how can they spend money so much.
You don’t know, when I looked at that pile of stuff today, my heart was beating so fast.”
"Humph! Who said it wasn't? It wasn't just one pile, it was two, two piles as big as a hill. What a spendthrift!
Tell me, why didn’t we realize before that the second child has such a temper?
This guy is really spoiling his wife too much!"
"Humph! You haven't noticed much!
Look at our three sons. The eldest, Haosong, is honest and simple-minded, but he has no brains and is controlled by his wife.
The second son, Haonan, is cunning and dotes on his wife too much, ruining the family.
"Old Third, please stop talking. He's not a good person. Do you think there's something wrong with our ancestral tomb? Otherwise, let's write a letter to Zhongyi tomorrow and ask him to go take a look."
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Our Ye family's ancestral tomb was specially inspected by someone. It's a rare Feng Shui treasure land within a hundred miles.
If you really can’t stay idle, I can help you…”
"You old man, you're becoming more and more dishonest, and Dabao is still here..."
While Ye's father and mother were chattering away, Chen Ruxue and Ye Haonan were still awake.
After feeding Tuantuan and Qiuqiu milk powder and coaxing them to sleep, Chen Ruxue quietly approached Ye Haonan and said, "Brother Nan, I think my parents don't look right. Are they angry?"
Ye Haonan looked at her pretending to be innocent and wanted to laugh, "It's okay, don't worry, Mom and Dad are just used to being frugal and they haven't adapted to it yet.
However, we should just pretend and wait for a while before you bring out the stuff!"
"Brother Nan, you're so kind! Actually, I took these things out just to make our family eat better. It's not like we don't have the conditions. Before, there were too many people in the brigade and the conditions didn't allow it. Now we don't know anyone, and we live behind closed doors, so no one else can know."
"I understand! Well, we've been tired all day, let's go to bed early!"
"Hehehe! Good!"
After a dreamless night, Chen Ruxue was awakened the next morning by the noise in the yard.
"Brother Nan, what's going on outside?"
"It seems to be snowing!"
"It's snowing? No wonder I slept so soundly. But luckily we bought some coal yesterday, otherwise we would have been freezing in the middle of the night!"
"You sleep a little longer, I'll go out and sweep the snow."
"Pile them all together so I can build a snowman for Dabao later!"
"Then Dabao will definitely be jumping for joy."
When Ye Haonan put on his thick cotton-padded clothes and went out, his mother was cooking in the kitchen and his father was already shoveling snow with a shovel.
"Dad, take a break. I'll do the shoveling."
"No, you go and sweep the snow outside the gate, and leave the yard to me. It's a good opportunity for me to get some exercise.
I'm used to working, so it's hard to do nothing all of a sudden."
Hearing what his father said, Ye Haonan naturally did not object. He picked up another shovel and walked out the door.
The snow was not too heavy, only about seven or eight centimeters thick, which was nothing compared to the knee-deep snow in their Donglin Brigade.
Soon, all the snow at the gate and in the outer courtyard was cleared away by Ye Haonan.
The courtyard house they live in now is some distance away from the main road. In order to make it easier to go out, Ye Haonan directly cleared the snow on the road from his front door to the main intersection.
While sweeping the snow, he met three or five neighbors who were also out sweeping the snow, and Ye Haonan greeted them.
"Hey guys, you guys are new here, right? Which district did you live in originally?"
An elderly lady with a yellow headscarf on her head asked curiously.
Out of politeness, Ye Haonan simply replied, "Auntie, we moved here from another place. Let's visit each other more often in the future."
Ye Haonan, who had just said hello and was about to go home, was suddenly stopped by the old lady. "Young man, why are you in such a hurry? I still have something to ask."
"Auntie, if you have anything to say, please ask quickly. I still need to go home for dinner!"
"Well, it's not a big deal. You're young and good-looking. Are you married? Do you have a formal job? If so, how about I introduce you to a partner?
I have a niece from my mother's side, she's very pretty, and she has high standards, she wants to find someone with a formal job..."
"Auntie, I'm already married, and I don't have a job. I'm supported by my wife. If you're alright, I'll go home for dinner."
Ye Haonan was really impatient at this moment. How could a simple greeting cause such trouble?
come out!
Without waiting for the old lady to say anything, Ye Haonan picked up the shovel and walked quickly into the yard, locking the gate from the inside.
However, when he turned around, he saw Chen Ruxue looking at him with a smile.
"Well, you heard it all! I don't even know that lady."
"Of course I know that, but, Brother Nan, you're really lucky. You've just arrived in Beijing and you've already attracted two beautiful women.
It seems that I need to have a sense of crisis."
"What peach blossoms? There are no peach blossoms, not even two. Also, you're very good, better than anyone else. Wife, don't worry, I will only have you in my heart and eyes for the rest of my life." Ye Haonan tapped Chen Ruxue's forehead with his finger, directly expressing his feelings. He then reached out his big hand and took Chen Ruxue's small hand. Noticing that her hand was very cold, he quickly bent down and blew a few breaths of warm air on it. "Go back to the house quickly. It's too cold. Your hands are icy."
After returning to the house, Chen Ruxue warmed her hands by the stove for a long time before they gradually warmed up.
At this time, Ye's mother's voice came from the yard again, "It's time for dinner!"
After breakfast, Chen Ruxue helped clean up the kitchen and then returned to her bedroom.
She is about to do one thing, which is to make herself more beautiful.
My God, these two people really don’t take her seriously!
These women are all confident that they are prettier than her, right? Any one of them wants to compete with her. If that's the case, then just wait for her. She must become prettier and more beautiful than everyone else, and it would be best if she could blind those people's eyes.
Of course, she wanted to become more beautiful not just for Ye Haonan. He was only part of the reason. The most important reason was for herself.
Perhaps it is because of the inferiority complex she has developed in modern times, she is always somewhat dissatisfied with her appearance.
It was fine when she lived in the countryside after traveling through the book, but especially after coming to the big city and seeing all kinds of beauties, her unwillingness was suddenly aroused again.
There was no way before, but it is different now. A great opportunity is right in front of her. If she doesn't take advantage of it, it would be a waste of the convenient conditions provided by the system mall.
