Bao Suyun nodded, "Okay, I won't go out. I'll send Mianmian to clear the table when the food is ready."

After Yang Huazhou left, Mianmian poked her head out of the stove, glanced at Xiao Hei who was shoveling snow in the yard, pursed her lips and snickered.

"Stop looking, come back and stuff me with firewood." Bao Suyun reminded in a low voice.

Mianmian sat back at the mouth of the stove again.

The depression caused by the broken snack box suddenly disappeared.

"Mom, this result is really satisfying. I see Xiao Hei shoveling the snow there, and the boss is not happy!"

"Your aunt is very spoiled by children. Regardless of whether it is Da Bai or Xiao Hei, she has never done any physical work. She is probably pissed off by him this time."

If you weren't so angry, how could you ask Xiao Hei to shovel the snow when it was so cold?

This is the first day of the Lunar New Year. You have to work when you go out to pay New Year greetings on the first day of the New Year. Don’t you feel bad?

"Mom, having said that, I think Xiao Hei's place..." Mianmian pointed to her head and said in a low voice: "There seems to be something wrong."

Bao Suyun frowned and said, "Don't say this nonsense."

As she asked Mianmian, she turned to look at the door and window of the kitchen. Fortunately, no one came over.

"Mom, I'm not lying. I used to chat with Sister Xiangxiang, Xiuxiu and Baobao, and they all thought Xiao Hei was a bit silly, but I didn't feel that way alone."

Do so many girls feel that way?

Bao Suyun smiled awkwardly.

When she was chatting privately with Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Liu, the fourth sister-in-law, Mrs. Liu, also directly said that Xiao Hei was not smart. He was fifteen or sixteen years old and could not speak or act as well as Hong'er and Tiedan.

"Let's stop talking about people behind their backs, and hurry up and cook."

Bao Suyun reminded her again. Mei'er would come over later, or her mother-in-law would come over. Hearing this would inevitably cause displeasure.

Mianmian didn't refute. She just wanted to cook the food as soon as possible, and then greet them for lunch quickly. After lunch, they would go back early, and the errand would be successfully completed.

Separated by a wall, Yang Yong entered his home.

The hall was very lively. Yang Yongjin chatted and laughed with brothers Li Jia and Li Yi.

Li Wei didn't need anyone to greet him. He saw a shovel placed in the corner, rolled up his sleeves, picked up the shovel and went to the yard to shovel the snow.

Yang Yongjin rushed over to stop him: "You are here as a guest, how can I ask you to do that kind of thing? Come on and rest, I will shovel it later."

Li Wei smiled and said: "Father-in-law, I don't feel comfortable being idle, so you'd better let me do something to keep my hands and feet warm."

"If you're cold, come over and warm yourself by the fire." Yang Yongjin added.

Li Wei shook his head, "If you don't want to warm yourself up by the fire, I don't have the habit of warming myself up by the fire. It's better for me to stretch my muscles and keep myself warm, haha..."

Yang Yongjin couldn't stop him, so he could only turn around and ask Li Jia and Li B for help.

Li Jia waved his hand, "It's no big deal, just let him shovel if he likes!"

Li Yi said with a smile: "My son-in-law is the son-in-law. He doesn't regard himself as an outsider. Yongjin, don't be restrained. Just do whatever you need to do. That kid is too weak to be idle."

These words were so casual and intimate that Yang Yongjin was filled with emotion, feeling that the Li family was really paired up.

The elders are open-minded and easy to talk to, and the son-in-law has no choice. Xiuxiu is really a lucky girl.

In this case, Yang Yongjin was not restrained, and gave Li A and Li B more tea, and put the snack box in front of Li Wei's sister, and everyone continued to make their own meals.

In the kitchen.

Accompanied by the rhythmic sound of shovels shoveling into the snow, Cao Bamei also stood by the small window and looked at the activities in the yard. While looking at her, she pursed her lips and smiled, with indescribable joy and affection in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.

"Mom, stop looking at this and come over quickly to cook!"

Xiuxiu stood beside the pot, tapping her feet lightly.

Cao Bamei turned around reluctantly and came back with a smile on her face.

"Mom, the way you look at your eldest brother-in-law is so scary. People who don't know this would think they are looking at your own husband, hahaha..."

Xiuhong sat at the stove, laughing and joking.

Xiu Xiu also covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this.

Cao Bamei walked up to her second daughter-in-law and poked her on the forehead gently: "You girl, you are only a little older in the movie, and you are teasing your mother? Is there something you haven't heard? The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she watches her, the more she likes her."

Xiuhong blinked, this was the first time she heard this sentence, but everyone could see her mother's satisfaction with her eldest brother-in-law.

"If you can be as lucky as your eldest sister in the future, you will also find a husband who looks like your eldest brother-in-law, has a good build, temperament, and a good family. Your mother and I think so too. The more I look at him, the more I like him."

Her embroidered little face suddenly turned red.

"Mom, you're talking nonsense. How old am I and you're talking about this to me? I won't help you stuff the firewood."

Xiu Hong put down the fire stick and walked toward the door with her two braids swinging around.

Cao Bamei shouted from behind: "You are a small-tempered person but you have a very big temper. I have a visitor in my house today. You have to be more obedient and don't be really stubborn, you know?"

"I'm not a cow, why should I be so stubborn!"

"You girl are more stubborn than an ox!"

"Where are you going? Find your brother, keep an eye on him and don't let him go to the pond, do you hear me?"

"I heard it, I heard it. It's so verbose."

"This girl!"

After Xiuhong ran away, Xiuxiu came to the mouth of the stove and took over her sister's errand.

Cao Bamei also returned to the pot table and picked up the spatula again.

Naturally, the topics the two of them talked about revolved around Li Wei, and Cao Bamei praised him both in and out of her words.

"Mom is someone who has been here before. I can see that Li Wei, this younger generation, is really good. He is diligent, has a good temper, and is polite to his elders. He also listens to your arrangements when we are with you. He is very easy-going."

"You will be fifteen after the new year. Your father and I have discussed that we will start preparing your dowry in the twelfth lunar month of this year, and we will get you two married by the end of next year. That's almost it..."

Xiuxiu buried her head in adding firewood to the stove. After hearing Cao Bamei's calculations, she also made them in her mind.

"Mom, according to what you said, I can only stay at home for two years after all my calculations have been done? I won't do it. I can't bear to leave you and my father."

Cao Bamei was happy, "You kid, men should get married when they are young, and girls should get married when they get married. You can't let Li Wei wait for you for three years since the engagement, right?"

"Mom, didn't you say that he was nice before? Do you want to do whatever you want with me? What if you wait for me for another three years?"

Seeing Xiu Xiu raise her head with a bright red face, although her daughter looked ordinary, her air of dignity made Cao Bamei very happy.

"You, you are just talking like a child, Li Wei will be over 20 in two years,"

"Even if he is willing to wait, your future parents-in-law can't wait. Who doesn't look forward to having grandchildren when they marry a daughter-in-law?"

The word "grandson" is too powerful for Xiuxiu now, and she can't resist it.

So he spat and buried his head, his face burning with shame.
