"Also, some things have been put off for too long, and the nights have been full of dreams, and I'm always afraid of things going wrong."

"This marriage will definitely be consummated in the second half of next year. Only when you are firmly married can your parents rest assured."

The big crucian carp in the pot is fried until golden brown on both sides and sizzling.

Following Cao Bamei's heart-wrenching analysis, Xiuxiu didn't utter a rebuttal and stared at the fire in the stove in a daze.

There were some words that she didn't dare to say to her parents, but there were some feelings that always existed in her heart.

She didn't study much, so she went to the village school with Baobao and the others for a year or two, and learned a few words so that she wouldn't become blind.

She couldn't express the intangible but lingering feeling in her heart, and that feeling was related to Li Wei.

Let's put it this way, Li Wei is good to her and her whole family.

Give gifts during festivals and festivals, and when farming is busy, he can take the initiative to come over and help with the work without asking.

Even during the last autumn harvest, his family's rice was left to dry first and he had to come over to help her family harvest the rice.

When picking cotton, Li Wei helped her family's cotton field day and night.

He respects her parents and treats her younger brothers and sisters well. When he holds his younger brother on his shoulders and plays with her, he doesn't act like an elder brother-in-law, but like a real brother.

People around him praised him and said Li Wei was kind, saying that Li Wei cared about her and was so kind to every plant and tree in her family, even the cat.

She herself couldn't find fault with Li Wei. He was such a tall man, and he always smiled in front of her. He had a good temper and patience. Even if she wanted to be angry or act coquettishly, she couldn't find an excuse.

She always felt that the two of them were too good to be true, not like a real couple.

Couples who are truly in love look at each other in different ways. No matter how good their relationship is, they will quarrel and fight. After reconciliation, the tacit understanding becomes even greater.

She and Li Wei...were so respectful to each other that she couldn't figure out whether they really liked each other? Or was she just unaware of her blessings?

"...Daughter, do you remember everything my mother told you?"

The chaotic thoughts were interrupted by Cao Bamei's sudden question.

"Mom, let's talk about these things later, I'm so confused!"

"What are you doing, girl? Li Wei is so good, you can just have fun marrying him!"

Cao Bamei came over with a bowl of tea in her hand.

"Go and give this bowl of tea to Li Wei. He must be thirsty after working for a while."

Xiu Xiu stood up, took the tea, and left the kitchen.

Cao Bamei ran to the small window and looked out.

Seeing Li Wei put down the shovel and thanking Xiu Xiu when he took the tea from Xiu Xiu, Xiu Xiu lowered her head in embarrassment and lightly kicked the snow on the ground with her toes.

"This girl is really worthless. She even raises her head and says a few nice words. There is no gold on the ground. It's really..."

Cao Bamei, the enthusiastic mother-in-law, looked at the two young men and was so anxious that she wanted to run out and raise Xiuxiu's head to let them look at each other affectionately.

After a while, Xiuxiu came back and put the empty bowl on the pot table.

"Why did you come back so soon? Why didn't you say a few words to him?" Cao Bamei asked in surprise.

Sending tea is only secondary, the main purpose is to create an opportunity for the two of you to be alone together. You can't seize this?

Xiuxiu saw through Cao Bamei's thoughts at a glance. She curled her lips and sat back at the stove, "It's freezing outside in the snow and ice. I asked him to come in when he was tired. He said he wasn't, so I didn't have anything to say."

"You girl...hey!" Cao Bamei was so angry that she was speechless.

When the food was almost cooked, Yang Yong came into the kitchen.

"Is it almost ready to set the dishes and chopsticks?" Yang Yongjin asked.

"I'll stir-fry a bowl of spinach and it'll be ready," Cao Bamei said.

Yang Yongjin looked around and said, "No rush, take your time. I want to discuss it with you. I want to call my mother over to have dinner together."

Although the Jin family has been widowed for a long time, several sons take turns to support her. Even Yang Yongxian has to bring some money back during the Chinese New Year.

But during the Chinese New Year, she did not rotate at her sons' homes like Tan, she always spent the Chinese New Year with Yang Yongqing.

Perhaps it was because Yang Yongqing was not as good as his brothers and he had a little girl with him, so Jin followed him to help him out.

Since Yang Yongxian and Liao Meiying had a falling out, Jin sometimes had to find time to help Liao Meiying take care of her children. They are all her own grandchildren, and the palms and backs of her hands are full of flesh.

"You go and ask mother to come over for dinner, I have no objection." Cao Bamei said.

"Even if mother comes over and brings the little girl from the Yongqing family, I will still like it."

That girl has been with the Jin family since she was born. Wherever the Jin family goes, she has never been separated.

"But the problem is, both their grandparents and grandchildren have come over, and no one cooks for Yongqing at noon, so Yongqing has to come over too? I'm annoyed that he loses control every time he drinks, and drinks too much

You’re still talking nonsense, my family is here to pay New Year’s greetings to my in-laws.”

Hearing Cao Bamei's concerns, Yang Yongjin was also a little embarrassed.

My mind couldn't help but recall the previous times when my in-laws came over for dinner, and Yang Yongqing was there too. He was bragging even before he even drank. After three glasses of wine, there was no one else to talk to at the dinner table. It was all his own.

Not only that, he also loves to persuade others to drink. Even if others don't want to drink or can't drink, he will always use words to retaliate. If you don't give me face, you won't give face to my second brother. If you don't give face to my second brother, you won't give me face.

The Yang family wants to save face by waiting for these harsh words to put pressure on the other party and put pressure on the other party.

"Forget it, let's not call him." After weighing it for a while, Yang Yongjin gave up the idea.

Cao Bamei knew that he was a filial son, so he felt uncomfortable because his mother-in-law Jin didn't get to eat this meal.

So she added, "How about this? Later you bring a bowl of vegetables to my mother. I've simmered the chicken. You can bring a bowl to my mother as an extra dish for lunch!"

Yang Yongjin's face was obviously happy, but he still had to hesitate to ask: "Is there enough food for the guests at home?"

Cao Bamei smiled confidently, "You can absolutely rest assured, there are plenty of them!"

Now that our family is here, we really don’t have to worry about food, drink, clothing or anything else.

There is no shortage of chicken, duck, fish, meat and shrimp for the Chinese New Year. It is also appropriate to send a bowl of simmered chicken nuggets to my mother-in-law.

"Then shall I send it off?" Yang Yongjin asked again.

Cao Bamei shook her head: "Just don't go. How can you leave when there are guests at home?"

"Could it be you? You can't leave this kitchen!" Yang Yongjin asked again.

Cao Bamei smiled, and smacked her lips towards Xiuxiu at the mouth of the stove, "Xiuxiu, go and ask Li Wei to accompany her, and also ask Li Wei to wish our mother a happy new year."

Yang Yongjin thought this was a good idea, so he turned around and went to the yard to talk to Li Wei about it.
