Even the shoes I am wearing now were made by my sister-in-law Xiu Xiu.

My brother was originally very happy about this marriage, but more than a month ago, he suddenly seemed not as happy as before.

Many times she would spy on her brother, who was in a daze and worried, and would not say anything when she asked him.

He often ran to Changping Village, but he didn't go to his father-in-law's house every time. He just wandered by the river behind Changping Village and down the mountain.

She followed him secretly.

Today, the way he looked at Miss Mianmian made her, a younger sister, suddenly panic.

There seemed to be a guess about something that had been bothering her for a long time, and that guess made her panic.

Five rooms.

When she heard that the people outside were Xiuxiu's future husband's family coming to pay Yang Yongjin and Cao Bamei New Year greetings, Mrs. Tan immediately lost interest in asking any more questions.

She held the small heater and turned around and walked into the main room again.

After a while, Tan came out again.

"Lao Wu, go take a look at Lao Wang's house and ask them why they haven't come over yet?"

Yang Huazhou was happy when he heard this.

"Mom, why would you go to someone else's house to urge me to pay my New Year greetings?"

"I'm not asking you to urge me, I'm just going to take a look and see what's going on, but I haven't come over yet."

"Mom, you will definitely come over when it's time to come over. Don't be in a hurry!"

Mrs. Tan was very unhappy, muttered something and went back to the main room.

Yang Huazhou glanced at the pair of children beside him and said, "Let's work more quickly. We might arrive soon and have to dig out the road."

Dabao and Mianmian nodded together, and the father and son continued shoveling the snow, not daring to slack off for a moment.

When there was not much road left, Lao Wang's family finally came over.

Little Black ran at the front, wearing a brand new set of clothes.

Followed by Wang Shuanzi, Wang Shuanzi was carrying a bundle roll in one hand, containing things for New Year greetings, and holding Yang Huamei in the other hand.

Yang Huamei was fully armed, wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket, a thick velvet hat covering her ears, gloves on her hands, and a handkerchief covering her mouth.

Rather than being held by Wang Shuanzi, it is better to say that the couple was supporting each other in the snow.

"Granny, fifth uncle, we are here to celebrate the New Year!"

Xiao Hei stepped on the snow crunching, and as soon as he reached the entrance of the courtyard, he started shouting loudly, and puffs of white air came out of his mouth.

Yang Huazhou put down his shovel and came over with a smile. Dabao and Mianmian also followed behind Yang Huazhou.

Bao Suyun poked his head out of the kitchen, with a warm smile on his face.

Mrs. Tan rushed out of the main room again... again, "Is Mei'er here?"

"Mom, I'm here!"

Yang Huamei and Wang Shuanzi had already arrived at the courtyard gate. Mrs. Tan only saw a person wrapped like a silkworm chrysalis moving towards this side with difficulty, with a pair of eyes exposed all over his body.

"Xiaohei, you are a bastard, you don't know how to support your mother?"

Mrs. Tan scolded Xiao Hei as she walked toward the entrance of the courtyard.

"My mother is supported by my father," Xiao Hei said.

"Then you should help your father carry the bundle. You are such a big man and you are running around empty-handed. Why don't you help your father and mother share the burden?"

Xiao Hei bared his teeth and grinned strangely, "Granny, I'm your eldest grandson, why are you scolding me before you even give me the New Year's money?"

Mrs. Tan glared at Xiao Hei. Although the red seal was in her pocket, she was in no hurry to take it out.

"Meier, mother is here to help you."

"Mom, don't come over here, the road is slippery..."

Before Yang Huamei's voice could reach Tan, Tan actually slipped and leaned back.

Fortunately, Dabao and Mianmian were not far away, and the brother and sister worked together to support Tan.

"Nai, please slow down." Mianmian said softly.

"If these shoes don't work, prepare a pair of clogs for me later."

Before Mianmian could respond, Tan rushed towards Yang Huamei without hesitation again.

He squeezed Wang Shuanzi away and supported Yang Huamei.

"Mei'er, you haven't recovered from your illness yet. Why are you here when it's so cold?"

"Mom, this New Year's Day, I must come over to give you a happy New Year!"

"You are too filial to be a daughter. You have to put your own body first."

"Mei'er, Shuanzi, hurry up and sit down in the main room."

Bao Suyun also came over and helped Yang Huamei from the other side.

Yang Huazhou took the bundle roll from Wang Shuanzi's hand, talked and laughed and entered the main room together.

It's very warm inside the main room, and it's like a completely different world from the outside.

There is a charcoal brazier under the table, and two large heating buckets are placed beside the table.

The single-person hot tub that looks like a stool is Tan's exclusive throne. Next to it is a large warm tub that is thigh-deep and can seat three adults in a circle. On top of it is an old piece of Yang Huazhou's clothes.

Mrs. Tan directly pushed Yang Huamei into the big heating bucket, "Hurry up and sit down, don't get cold."

Yang Huazhou also pulled out a charcoal brazier for Wang Shuanzi to warm up. As soon as Bao Suyun took out the snack box, Xiao Hei snatched it away, opened the lid of the snack box and threw it on the table.

Because of too much haste and too much force, the snack box fell to the ground, cracking with a crisp sound.

This made Mianmian, who was bringing tea, very distressed.

"This snack box was newly bought in the twelfth lunar month. I have been picking out the colors for a long time..."

Mianmian put the tea on the table, knelt down and picked up the lid, touching the cracks on it and muttering softly.

"Mianmian..."

Bao Suyun came over to help clean up, and quietly pulled Mianmian's sleeves to signal her not to say anything.

Mianmian bit her lip and could only hold the cracked snack box and put it on the table.

Yang Huamei had just taken off the thick hat on her head and the gloves on her hands. Seeing Xiao Hei's behavior, Yang Huamei was a little annoyed.

"You broke the snack box and you didn't say anything?" she asked.

Xiao Hei had already held the snack box in his arms and ate it wildly. When he heard this, he said without raising his head: "I didn't mean it. Besides, I didn't use any strength!"

"If you didn't use any force, how could the box have such a long crack?" Yang Huamei asked again.

"I told you, it's none of my business." Xiao Hei puffed out his cheeks and said vaguely.

Yang Huamei picked up the hat in her hand and threw it towards Xiao Hei.

The hat is relatively thick. Although it won't hurt much if it hits Xiao Hei's face, it will startle Xiao Hei.

The little black hand shook, and the snack box fell to the ground with a bang. All kinds of dried fruits, snacks, melon seeds, and candy cakes were scattered on the floor.

Yang Huamei was so angry that she almost rolled her eyes. She grabbed the gloves she had just taken off from the heating bucket and tried to hit Xiao Hei, but was stopped by Bao Suyun and Yang Huazhou.

"Mei'er, forget it, what's the big deal if it's just a snack lid? Don't scare Xiao Hei." Yang Huazhou said.

Bao Suyun also nodded repeatedly, "It's okay, it's okay."

Mianmian was so shocked by this turn of events that her pretty face turned pale.

Wang Shuanzi couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and scolded Xiao Hei, "You are no longer a child. Why are you so reckless when you come to your uncle's house as a guest? What does it look like!"
