Su Li smiled and continued: "Well, I won't say this anymore. We are one family and we shouldn't talk behind each other's backs. It would be hypocritical if I say it again. Brother, sister-in-law, brother and sister-in-law, let's take a seat first. You have worked hard all the way here. Let's eat first!"
Even at his age, Xie Zhengyang still can't change his gluttony. He gets happy when he sees delicious food.
"Yes, let's eat first. We are in for a treat today. I haven't tasted my brother and sister-in-law's cooking for a long time. I only had some porridge this morning and I'm starving now!"
Xia Xiuzhi wanted to cover her face.
The brothers hadn't gathered for a long time. The three of them drank and ate.
The juice that Pan Yumei and the other two drank,
"The college entrance examination is coming soon. How are the kids preparing? Are you confident?" Xia Xiuzhi said.
Su Li stood up and poured them some more juice. "They said they are sure. Baoya wants to apply to a film and television school, Huzi hasn't thought about it yet, and Shitou wants to study business. That kid has ideas about doing business and is calm and steady. I support him very much."
"Yes, Shitou has had his own ideas since he was young. It's unusual for someone to choke when speaking at such a young age. In the future, when it comes to business, who can beat him?"
"Hahaha..." Xie Zhengyang laughed.
Shitou is indeed a man who has never spoken since childhood. But once he speaks, it is impossible to respond to him.
After one round of drinking, Su Li stopped drinking.
"Didn't my second brother want to take my second sister-in-law out for a walk this afternoon? How can we go shopping when we are drunk?"
Xia Xiuzhi waved her hand and said, "It's okay. We plan to stay for one night. It's the same if we go out tomorrow. This time we come to the provincial capital, in addition to visiting Zhengchuan, we also have to go to the hotel. Your second brother Su said that the renovation period is almost over. He is busy these days, so he asked your second brother to come and take a look."
Su Li smiled and said, "That's right. It's been a while since the three of us sisters have had a chat together. We'll stay at home today. Tiedan and Lidan's rooms are still empty. After dinner, I'll go and clean up."
"No, let's go to the hotel across the street. It's quite nice there, so we won't stay at home." Xie Zhenghe said.
Pan Yumei also nodded. Su Li had already tried to persuade her to stay, so Xie Zhengchuan had to speak next.
"I'm staying at home. My brother and sister-in-law came to treat me, but they still wanted to stay outside. What nonsense! My spine will be broken if I look back."
"Look at what you are saying, third brother. We said we were going to the night market in the evening. We heard that there are a lot of snacks in the night market in the provincial capital, and your sister-in-law has never seen them, so we wanted to go and take a look. We will definitely be back late this time, and we are afraid of disturbing you. Besides, the children have to do homework at night, so it is not appropriate, not appropriate." Xie Zhenghe said.
Pan Yumei was still a little unhappy, but she also listened to him. It was not easy for her to come to the provincial capital, so she wanted to go and take a look. She had only mentioned it to Xie Zhenghe at home before, but she didn't expect that he still remembered it.
Pan Yumei was a little embarrassed, so she quickly took a few sips of the juice in front of her and tried to cover it up.
"What's inappropriate? Big brother, big sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law, don't worry, they all have good grades, and doing homework is not difficult for them. Besides, they haven't seen you for a long time, and they miss you too."
Xie Zhengchuan tried to persuade him to stay again. He said, "You have to rest at home! Otherwise, it would be really unfair if people ask about it. Besides, we are brothers, so there is nothing wrong with that."
Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan said together, and Xie Zhenghe and the others didn't say anything.
Su Li also called Lu Song and asked Li Ming to come to her house in the evening and take Xie Zhenghe and a few others to the famous night market in the provincial capital.
After dinner, Pan Yumei and Xia Xiuzhi helped wash the dishes.
Then the six of them sat on the sofa and chatted. At this time, Pan Yumei picked up the bag next to the sofa, opened it and said, "This is something someone from my hometown asked me to bring. This bag contains wild ginseng that my uncle picked when he was free. It's not worth much, but it's really good for your health. There are also mushrooms and old hens sent by Aunt Xie's family. They said you can make soup with them. It's the most nourishing..."
Pan Yumei said this as she took things out of her bag.
Su Li could tell that these were gifts from the people in Shanghe Village where she lived.
The goods are genuine and of their own.
Although she didn't have the space to drink the spiritual spring water, her sincerity was the most precious.
"This...what does this mean? Thank you, fellow villagers."
Xie Zhengchuan was jealous, as nothing was as delicious as the food from his hometown.
He looked at these things, which were what he ate when he was a child. When he ate them back then, he felt that life was really hard, and his heart ached while eating them.
Every time I take a bite of it now, it’s filled with memories, and these memories are bitter yet sweet.
Although some things seemed unpalatable at that time, now when I take a bite from time to time, I find them so delicious.
In addition to these things, there are also some dried vegetables that Xie's mother dried.
Some things sent by Su’s sister-in-law.
Su Li and Xie Zhengchuan looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.
Xie Zhenghe smiled and said, "Many people in the village are thinking about you. They asked me to send a message to my family after seeing Zhengchuan. Also, my brother and sister-in-law, the brick kiln factory has been struggling in recent years, but everyone remembers your kindness. They also asked me to tell you to go back often to visit."
"Of course I will go back to my family. When I get back to the village, I will definitely visit each family. I hope they don't find me annoying."
"That's impossible."
The few of them chatted for a while. Su Li was afraid that they were too tired, as they were driving and drinking.
She went back to the room and took out her bedding. Pan Yumei and Xia Xiuzhi made the bed for themselves, and then started to rest.
In the evening, Hu Zi, Shi Tou and others returned home from school. They were very happy to see their uncle and second uncle were there.
I heard that they wanted to go to the night market and skip dinner. Huzi volunteered to be the tour guide, but was rejected by Zhenghe.
They are now in the final sprint. Every minute and every second is precious.
Su Li also took the opportunity to say that Li Ming would come and take people away, and Hu Zi gave up.
When Shitou was chatting with Xie Zhenghe, he pretended to ask about Xiangzhi casually.
He and Li Dan both knew that Tiedan liked Xiangzhi. Tiedan had been home once before.
It was a farewell, but after joining the army, I had no freedom of time, and it was not easy to get news about my beloved.
Today, his uncle came to the house. If he didn't ask, he would be sorry to have called him brother for so many years. He would be unkind.
"Uncle, you guys are so busy, why did you think of coming over? You can also make a phone call to ask about my dad's condition."
"Hahaha, seeing your dad is one thing, and on the other hand your aunt has always wanted to come to the provincial capital for a visit. Isn't this a ready-made opportunity?"
"Why does it sound to me that accompanying my aunt to visit the provincial capital is the top priority?" Shi Tou said this jokingly.
"You little brat, you dare to tease me." Xie Zhenghe said with a smile.
"How dare I! Uncle, I just feel that you are so busy. If you come to the provincial capital, will my eldest sister be the one to take care of the family?" Shitou said while looking at Xie Zhenghe.
"Your eldest sister is not at home. She went to Hai City a few days ago and hasn't come back yet."
"ah?"
