Chen Yuelian happily waved the spatula in her hand, "That's right, good food is never too late."
Wenwen teased Chen Yuelian, "Mom, that's great! It looks like you'll have two more daughters-in-law this year, and maybe next year you'll be a grandmother and take care of two grandchildren."
Chen Yuelian rolled her eyes at her with a smile, "If you marry Xun Ting too, I wouldn't mind having an extra grandson next year."
Wenwen didn't expect her mother to tease her instead, "Mom, what are you talking about? She's still a little girl, how could she get married so early?"
"You're not young anymore, you can get married. Xun Ting is only one year younger than your eldest brother. How long are you going to wait for him?"
Chen Yuelian is a very traditional person. Since the two of them have been engaged since childhood, she also hopes that her daughter will get married and have children as soon as possible.
"Mom, you don't have to worry about our marriage. We have already discussed it and we won't get married so early."
Chen Yuelian sighed softly when she heard this. She was not blind. Probably, except for her own daughter, no one could fail to see the love in Yu Xunting's eyes.
But her precious daughter is not an ordinary person, so she will not force her daughter to get married. No matter what happens, her children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
Before dinner, Wen Lei brought Song Yina back to the Wen family, and everyone introduced themselves to each other again.
Shen Yina looked at the large family in front of her and felt very nervous. She tried hard to calm her nervous mood and greeted everyone in a graceful manner.
Chen Yuelian smiled soothingly, "Don't feel any psychological pressure."
Shen Yina looked at the gentle Chen Yuelian and thought that she should not be a difficult mother-in-law. “Auntie, I brought some snacks from our Qiang ethnic group for you to try.”
Shen Yina handed a bag in her hand to Chen Yuelian, which was bulging with a lot of things.
Chen Yuelian said politely: "Hey, why bring gifts when you come to have a meal?"
Wenwen looked at Shen Yina, whose fingers were trembling with nervousness, but she behaved calmly.
She felt a little sympathetic towards Shen Yina in her heart. Any girl who went to meet the boy's parents with her boyfriend for the first time and was not nervous when seeing a room full of people, Shen Yina's performance was really good.
Wenwen walked to Shen Yina and smiled at her soothingly, “Sister Na, don’t be nervous. Our family is very good. Don’t worry. Over time, you will like this big family.”
Chen Yuelian continued, "Yes, you will soon like this big family. Don't be nervous, just think of it as coming to play with our little sister."
Then she handed the bag to Wenwen, "These are snacks from Yina's hometown. Let's share them with everyone. They're sure to be delicious."
Wenwen opened the cloth bag and found a bottle of wine inside. "Sister Na, is this the wine you brewed yourself?"
Shen Yina picked up the wine and introduced it, "This is Zajiu, a traditional liquor of our Qiang ethnic group. It is brewed from grains such as barley, sorghum, and corn. It has a mellow taste and rich aroma. Zajiu is the wine we drink on important occasions such as festivals, weddings, and funerals."
Wenwen said to the old men, "You are in for a treat tonight! Try some Qiang wine. This is not something you can drink normally. It is the wine that the Qiang people use to entertain distinguished guests."
Yu Baitian said with a smile: "Is it to smash the wine?"
Wenwen asked in surprise: "Grandpa, have you ever drunk it?"
"When we were fighting before, we were stationed near Gan Province for a period of time. Miss Shen, are you near Gan Province?" Yu Baitian asked Shen Yina.
Shen Yina nodded, “Yes, Grandpa Yu, we are Qiang people near Gan Province.”
"The Qiang people are very hospitable. What I like most is your Zhajiu and bacon." Yu Baitian missed it.
Shen Yina took out a piece of bacon, “Grandpa Yu, there is also old bacon.”
Yu Baitian said to He Hongchi, "We are in for a treat tonight, Old He. I remember you were there that time."
He Hongchi stroked his beard and said, "I remember the night before we left the base, the Qiang people held a bonfire farewell party for us. We drank za wine, ate bacon, and many Qiang snacks."
Shen Yina took out a bunch of dumplings, "I also brought stir-fried dumplings, which are dough made from flour or corn flour, which is made after being stirred and cooked. Stir-fried dumplings have a soft and sticky texture and a fragrant aroma. They can be paired with various dishes or eaten directly."
He Hongchi's eyes lit up, "It's this dumpling, it's sticky and fragrant."
Chen Yuelian took the dumplings and said, "I'll heat them up and serve you some wine."
Shen Yina said to Chen Yuelian: “Auntie, I will go to help you.”
Chen Yuelian quickly said, "No, no, you girls can just chat."
Wenwen pulled Shen Yina to sit at the table next to her, and also called Gu Xingyu and Su Anqiao to chat with Shen Yina.
Shen Yina gave Wenwen a grateful smile, “Wenwen, thank you!”
The elders in the family also know that the younger generations will have some psychological pressure when facing them, so after a brief introduction, they will not ask any more questions.
Several girls were chatting on the side, and Shen Yina slowly relaxed.
Wenwen looked at her brothers speechlessly. Wenze and Wenxiao pulled Wenlei aside and patted his shoulders and chest.
Wen Xiao hit Wen Lei's shoulder and said, "Brother, what a guy! He even found a date without saying anything and brought her back to meet his parents."
Wen Ze also gave his elder brother a thumbs up, "Brother, you are amazing. You have done a great job without making any noise."
Wen Lei's face turned red due to the teasing of his two younger brothers. If his face had not been tanned, he would have looked as red as Guan Gong.
Wen Ze was very happy. They both got married this year, and his mother wouldn't always urge him to find a partner. He could finally have some peace and quiet for a while.
Wen Lei patted their shoulders and said earnestly, "You must work hard and strive to let our mother hold her grandson next year."
Wen Lei kicked him and said, "Don't try to be lazy. You are not a child anymore. Find a wife quickly."
Wen Ze glanced at Wen Lei and thought, look, people who have a partner even speak in a very tough tone.
Wen Ze really envied his second brother. He was away from home all year round, so even if someone was urged to get married, it wouldn't happen to him.
Wen Ze deliberately said bitterly, "Brother, I don't know how to pursue girls. You have to teach me a few tricks."
Wen Lei pretended to beat up his younger brother who had made fun of him, but then he heard someone calling him to eat. Wen Lei quickly ran away, otherwise he would be laughed at by his younger brothers if he stayed there.
During the meal, the atmosphere was very relaxed. Everyone talked about some interesting things they had heard. When they learned that Shen Yina was from the Qiang ethnic group, they were very interested in this and asked her what was the difference between her and the Han ethnic group?
Shen Yina also told everyone about the daily living habits of the Qiang people, their national beliefs and so on.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was relaxed and cheerful, and Shen Yina completely relaxed when she saw that no one looked down on her because she was a minority.
