The sun is shining brightly today. Sitting in front of the window, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and drinking a cup of hot honey water, makes people feel particularly comfortable, as if the sun is not falling on the body, but directly into the heart.
Su Nan lazily curled up on the sofa, with his head resting on the soft pillow, and let out a deep breath. At this time, Su Yang, who had gone out to buy egg cake, came back, and he heard his voice before he saw him.
"Why has the price increased? For the same amount of money, I only bought half the amount today." Su Yang cursed as he opened the door with his key, then carefully placed a bag of egg cakes on the table in front of the sofa.
"It's normal to increase prices during holidays." Su Nan put down the honey water in her hand, grabbed a piece of egg cake and stuffed it into Su Yang's mouth. The next second, Su Yang stopped cursing and began to chew the egg cake in his hand slowly.
"Is it delicious?" Su Nan also grabbed a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, closing his eyes in satisfaction. The fragrance was so rich.
"Delicious." Su Yang quickly finished a piece, then took a new piece and put it in his mouth.
The two siblings were eating egg cakes and chatting, and soon Su Qiangguo and Lin Yuemei came back, but there were a few uninvited guests following them.
After seeing who was coming, Su Nan's face suddenly fell.
"Nannan, are you awake? Have you eaten? I put it in the cupboard for you." Lin Yuemei took off the new scarf around her neck and asked when she saw Su Nan.
"I've eaten. Su Yang helped me heat up the food." Su Nan withdrew his eyes from those people and smiled at Lin Yuemei.
Hearing this, Su Yang puffed out his chest, as if waiting for praise from an adult. Lin Yuemei burst out laughing when she saw this, but before she could open her mouth to praise him, she heard a sarcastic laugh coming from behind her.
"She's such a grown-up girl, not only can't cook, but she also sleeps until noon and asks her brother to help heat up the dishes. What kind of girl is so delicate? Sister-in-law, this is unacceptable. If you continue to spoil her, when she gets married, the man will despise her and say she has no manners."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence. No one spoke for a while, until another male voice echoed, "That's right, there's no girl that lazy. No one will want her in the future."
Su Nan snorted in his heart, and looked at the strange man who spoke. He looked somewhat familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen him, so he directly said, "Who are you? What does it have to do with you?"
"You silly girl, how can you talk to your elders like that? This is my younger brother, you should call him uncle." Zeng Guiyun glared at Su Nan unhappily, and that expression seemed to say that Su Nan was really impolite.
"Your brother? He's not my mother's brother. You're really good at trying to find a relationship." Su Nan stood up from the sofa and put the glass of honey water on the table with a loud bang, fully demonstrating her current anger.
It turns out this is the worst uncle that Su Tiantian mentioned, a shameless loser who had to rely on his niece for money to get married. Now he has another label added to him: he is extremely mean and nosy.
"Nannan." Su Qiangguo frowned and called out Su Nan's name as a warning.
How can this father still be so disloyal? Didn't he hear those two outsiders scolding his daughter?
"Dad, you sit with Mom first. Yangyang, go pour them a glass of honey water." Su Nan raised a gentle smile, took Su Qiangguo's hand affectionately, and pulled him to sit on the sofa.
Su Qiangguo didn't want to struggle too hard. Besides, this was a thoughtful gesture from his daughter and he couldn't bear to refuse. So he pursed his lips and said nothing.
After listening to what Zeng Guiyun said, Lin Yuemei's face darkened, but she kept silent. When she heard Su Nan's words, she followed her daughter's instructions and sat down on the sofa, but sat far away from Su Qiangguo.
Old Su is usually nice, but once he meets his relatives, things start to get confusing.
"We heard that you were back, Nan Nan, so we came to your house to see you, but you were so different. As soon as we arrived, you went against us elders and didn't even invite us in. We've been standing outside the door for such a long time."
"What did your parents teach you when you were young? You don't know how to entertain guests at all. Can you at least give me a glass of honey water?"
Zeng Guiyun said a lot of things to accuse Su Nan of being "ignorant", and only at the end did she say something practical from her heart. She sniffed, and then she felt the sweetness of the honey water lingering at the tip of her nose, tempting her taste buds.
Su Nan pulled the corners of her lips speechlessly, glanced at Zeng Guiyun, whose eyes were about to fall into the honey water in Su Yang's hand, and then turned to look at Su Qiangjun and her brother and his wife who were silent behind her.
Such a large family came to her house to see her? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at when you say this? Pah, how can you say this out loud?
Su Nan felt that they were more like they were in the past, a family coming here to have a feast. They would come to other people's homes to take advantage of them the day before the New Year. Their faces were thicker than the city walls.
Let’s not talk about the fact that Zeng Guiyun and his wife have no close relationship with Su Nan, let’s just talk about Zeng Guiyun’s younger brother. She has never seen him since she was a child, let alone his new wife, she doesn’t even know her, okay?
What kind of elder is this? How dare he come to her house to show off his power and speak words that are derogatory and lecturing?
What does it have to do with them whether Su Nan can cook, is lazy, or has good family education?
Besides, who's daughter is like the women in their family, born to do laundry and cook for their future husband's family? What kind of feudal stereotype is that?
Do you live by the sea? Why do you care so much?
Coming to her house under her name, can you be a good husband first? At least come to ask if she is tired from the long journey and whether she is living well in the countryside of Jiangbei Province.
This is how normal relatives should think, right?
He had ignored her before and didn't even write her a letter, but now he came to see her? Who would believe it? Anyway, Su Nan didn't believe it.
"Sorry, no." Su Nan stood in front of the door with his arms folded, showing no intention of moving aside to let them in.
"Isn't there a small jar over there? Do you think I'm blind?" Zeng Guiyun pointed at the jar of honey on the kitchen table. She was so angry that her eyes widened and her face looked a little hideous.
"Oh, I just won't give you any to drink. Who says I'm the girl without upbringing in your eyes?" Su Nan entangled her index finger with the long hair hanging in front of her chest and retorted coldly.
"You." Zeng Guiyun wanted to say something, but when she caught a glimpse of Su Qiangguo's ugly face, she realized that her words had also insulted the couple.
At that moment, she couldn't help but smile awkwardly: "Nannan, you see, we are one family and we shouldn't have different opinions. Auntie, that's not what I meant. You misunderstood."
Su Nan's lips slowly curled up into a smile, and he asked in a long voice, "Misunderstanding?"
"Yes, yes." Zeng Guiyun thought that Su Nan was giving her a way out, so she quickly agreed and grinned.
But the next second, he was stunned by the words that came out of Su Nan's mouth. The smile on his face froze and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
