That night, Xue Heng took Xue's father and Xue's mother back to the community and stayed at the Xue family for the night.

Cheng Tianyuan made millet porridge for them to make midnight snacks, and served them one bowl after another on the table.

After running around for two days, Xue’s father and mother Xue were very tired, so they went to bed after eating millet porridge.

Xue Heng pulled Xue Ling to look at the photos, and even took a photo of them when they were young, saying that Xue Ling had not changed at all, and was exactly the same as when they were young.

"Look at you, your little face is chubby, just like a big bun!"

Xue Ling had long forgotten what happened when she was a child. Looking at the pictures, blurred memories came up and she was fascinated by the moment.

"...So I looked like this when I was a kid!"

Xue Heng pinched her cheek intimately and said with a smile: "Yes! At that time, you always liked to pinch my face, and you also pinched my brother's face, and took us a few of us to play together. Every time I went back to my hometown in the imperial capital, I would yell to come to find you first."

Xue Ling also laughed and sighed.

"Time flies, we are all in our early twenties in a blink of an eye!"

Xue Heng glanced at Cheng Tianyuan who was washing dishes in the kitchen with an unhappy tone.

"After the Chinese New Year, you are only twenty-one years old and have a lot of great time. Life is very long, but unfortunately you are single but not long, why did you get married early!"

Xue Ling shrugged and replied with a smile: "Not everyone can say this is true. When the marriage comes, just marry!"

The handsome man sitting beside him flashed slightly and he lowered his voice: "Do you regret it? Are you?"

Xue Ling was stunned and shook her head quickly: "No! Brother Yuan is very kind to me, and I like him too. We had an engagement when we were young, so it will take sooner or later to get married."

Xue Heng glanced at her, and the look of anger could not be hidden in his eyes.

"You are a woman in the new era and have received high education. How can you be influenced by traditional backward concepts? We young people should pursue freedom of love and freedom of marriage. Like the words of matchmakers and the orders of parents, they are left over from feudal society to poison people! No way!"

Xue Ling disagreed and laughed: "We are different. We truly love each other and love each other more after marriage. For us, the orders of our parents and matchmakers are just icing on the cake."

Xue Heng felt very uncomfortable and whispered: "In my opinion... you deserve something better."

Apart from a good face, Cheng Tianyuan is worthy of her lifelong delivery?

The Xue family is a big family in the imperial capital. The nobles from hundreds of years ago are still flourishing, with a transcendent status and prosperity.

If it weren't for Cheng's father who saved Uncle Xue, he wouldn't have had such a marriage.

The Xue family is also well-known in the imperial capital. If a poor rural boy like Cheng Tianyuan doesn’t have this old engagement, he would not be able to afford it!

Uncle Xue is very wealthy, and the factory will be better and richer in the future. These are the foundations created by Uncle Xue’s struggle for most of his life, and they are not something that poor boy Cheng Tianyuan could covet!

Thinking that he had just arrived in the imperial capital, he went to the factory to drill the next morning - he looked down on him!

A poor boy is a poor boy. Not only did he take such a good wife, he was still thinking about the family business of his uncle and aunt!

After hearing his words, Xue Ling felt unhappy.

"Where! Brother Yuan is very good, he is all taking care of me."

She glanced at the clock in the living room and said, "It's past ten o'clock, so you should take a break early! I'll go back to the room first."

Xue Heng stuffed the album in his hand to her and said warmly: "This is specially brought to you, you have to read it!"

"Okay, okay!" Xue Ling replied casually, carrying the album back to the room.

Cheng Tianyuan had also cleaned the kitchen and walked out with his hands wiped.

Xue Heng stood up lazily and smiled unsalt and said, "Good night!"

Cheng Tianyuan nodded lightly, turned around and walked to the balcony to collect his clothes.

...

The next morning, Cheng Tianyuan got up and made steamed buns and white porridge.

The window was covered with snow. Although there were rays of sunlight, the temperature was still very low and the snow had not melted.

He saw ice flowers on both balconies, so he put on his outside and gloves to clean it up.

After getting up, Xue's mother looked at the well-organized home, with fragrant steamed buns and porridge spots, and smiled happily.

"Dad, look at Ayuan, everywhere is spotless. In the past, when we went out and went home, the house must be a mess. Fortunately, Ayuan was so clean."

While washing his face, Dad Xue smiled softly as he smelled the scent of steamed buns floating in the kitchen.

"I feel relieved to live with him. With her little lazy appearance, the family must be messy."

He still knows his daughter very well. Although she is not lazy, she is only limited to study and work. To put it nicely, she is not very particular about life, but she is too lazy to take care of and doesn't like to do housework.

Xue's mother looked into Xue Ling's room and laughed and scolded: "She is still asleep! Little lazy guy!"

The two of them were really satisfied with their son-in-law and walked to the living room with laughter.

When Cheng Tianyuan saw them, he opened a small door on the balcony.

"Dad, mom, it's early! The thermos kettle has been replaced with hot water, you can pour some drinks."

"Hey!" Dad Xue replied.

Xue's mother reminded in a gentle voice: "Don't catch a cold, get in quickly."

Cheng Tianyuan smiled and nodded, closed the door and continued to work hard.

Dad Xue looked into the guest room and whispered to his wife: "Xiaoheng must have not woken up yet, let him fall asleep, don't call him."

After Cheng Tianyuan finished his work, he poured hot water into the house.

"Wife, it's time to get up. You made an appointment with your old classmate Xiao Jiaxue in the morning, so don't be too late and let others wait."

Xue Ling said "Oh!" and quickly got up to get dressed and wash.

Cheng Tianyuan went to the kitchen, took out the steamed buns, and spooned a few bowls of rice porridge.

"Dad, mom, I've had breakfast."

The family gathered around the dining table, eating and chatting.

Xue's mother smiled and praised: "Ayuan, your skills are really good, and the steamed buns are fragrant and tender!"

Cheng Tianyuan smiled: "If you like, eat more. I used to make steamed buns, but Ling Ling liked to eat softer ones, but later she only made soft ones."

"It tastes delicious! It's very delicious!" Dad Xue gave him a thumbs up.

Xue Ling buried her head in a big way, while anxiously looking at the clock on the wall.

Cheng Tianyuan was afraid that she would choke and whispered: "Don't eat too fast, they are all friends, and they won't care about the bad things for a while."

"That's right!" Xue Ling slowed down and asked with a smile: "Are you going with me? She asked me to meet in the cafe opposite People's Square, and there was a direct bus."

Dad Xue hurriedly said, "Ayuan, People's Square is very lively, you have to go and have a walk."

"Yes!" Xue's mother agreed with the suggestion: "You can't always stay at home, go out for more shopping, buy some things to bring back to your in-laws and friends. It's rare to come here, you have to bring more gifts back."

Cheng Tianyuan was not relieved that Xue Ling went out alone, it was too cold outside.

"Okay, I'll go with her. I'll take her to the station to buy tickets in the afternoon, because I'm afraid the tickets will be too difficult to buy in a few days."

"Oh! When it comes to this, I almost forgot!" Dad Xue put down his chopsticks and smiled, "I'll book two air tickets for you in advance."
