"Wang Sheng is not a bad person. He is more suitable to be a friend and a partner."
Feng Yanhong's eyes widened. He actually described his love rival like this?!
Is this considered a compliment?
Li Boshan smiled, reached out and gently rubbed Feng Yanhong's head.
"Don't think too much, we are just friends, the kind who can nod and say hello when we meet."
"As for what happened today, I just said it casually while drinking that day. I didn't expect him to really remember it."
Two sleeper berth tickets were given to Grandpa Er and Bo Qing. The two sat in the hard-seat carriage all night. At dawn, Feng Yanhong was still in Li Boshan's arms.
Feng Yanhong's neck was sore from sleeping. She pushed herself up and stood up in the limited space. Only then did Li Boshan rub his shoulders, which had been pressed to the point of being unconscious.
It was really hard to sit on a hard seat. During the Chinese New Year period, there was no possibility of getting a sleeper berth. Their car was so crowded that there was no room to put their feet down.
She didn't even dare to leave her seat. If she wanted to go to the toilet, the distance in this carriage would take at least half an hour. Now she didn't even dare to drink more water for fear of trouble.
When she was so tired that she didn't want to move in the store, she wasn't in such pain. After finally getting to the station, Feng Yanhong felt that her legs were so swollen that she couldn't walk very well.
The four of them rented a rickshaw and finally returned to the Siheyuan.
"Boqing, after you've finished washing, go out and buy breakfast from Mr. Zhang." Second Grandpa put five yuan on the table.
"Okay!"
"You two have worked hard on this journey. You should go take a shower and eat later."
"good."
Feng Yanhong saw that Li Boshan had moved everything to the west wing, so she followed him in.
The room has obviously been renovated. Unlike the east wing, the west wing has a one-bedroom and one-living room, with the kitchen and bathroom next to it.
The walls in the house are white and the windows have been repainted. The red and green colors give it a very retro feel.
"You have tidied up the house so early, aren't you afraid that I won't come?"
No need for him to explain, he knew that he packed it up before leaving.
"It doesn't matter if you don't come. You will always come anyway. As long as you come and have a place to live, all my efforts will be in vain."
"You sit down first while I get the other things in."
"Look back and see if there's anything missing. We'll buy more in the afternoon."
Feng Yanhong walked around the two rooms, feeling that all the fatigue on her body disappeared instantly.
I am very happy with what Li Boshan has done. Although the house is rented, as long as the two of them are together, this is home.
"I have put all the food in the kitchen. There is a fire wall in our house, which is connected to the kitchen. I will light the coal stove right away."
Li Boshan moved the remaining things in, rubbed his hands and took a breath of heat.
"Let's light the fire for Grandpa Second first, we're not in a hurry."
Li Boshan grinned and pecked her on the cheek, "Okay, listen to my wife."
Li Boshan fired the coal stove faster than Feng Yanhong thought, and both sides were lit before breakfast.
Bo Qing now lives in the main house with his second grandfather, so there is no need to light a fire in the east wing for the time being.
After breakfast, many neighbors came to pay New Year greetings to the old man. Their hands were all empty, and there were no big gifts. Most of them brought snacks, or roasted chicken or something, and the last time it was a pack of rock candy.
The old man was not polite to them. After receiving the gifts, he stayed for a while to drink tea and received them politely in the main room.
Every time someone came, the old man would ask Feng Yanhong to boil water and make tea, and he would introduce her to the old neighbors along the way.
"My grandson-in-law will live here from now on. We are all neighbors and we all know each other."
"Second Master, this grandson's daughter-in-law is really handsome, like a southern girl, fair and tender."
Feng Yanhong heard a lot of compliments like this today, and she just smiled and passed them by without answering much.
The second grandfather is obviously also very satisfied. There is always a smile on his face today.
There were people in the main room today except during lunch time. At most, there were about ten people, men, women, old and young, sitting in the room.
The second grandfather seemed to have been prepared for it. When the children left, each of them had a small red envelope in his hand.
This was the first time Feng Yanhong had seen this kind of scene. His parents were both migrant workers on the farm. They had no relatives and few people with whom they had close contact.
Everyone has children during the Chinese New Year, and no one gives them red envelopes. That is to say, starting from a few years ago, when the family was richer, their parents only gave each of their siblings a small red envelope during the Chinese New Year.
I have never seen so many people come to pay New Year greetings. It seems that the second grandfather is really prestigious in this area.
"Yan Hong, go and close the door."
After sending away the last wave of guests, the old man stood in front of the door and let out a long sigh, letting Feng Yanhong close the door to thank the guests.
Second Grandpa rarely drank today and went back to the house after dinner.
The other three were also very tired, and after packing up, they all went to rest early.
Feng Yanhong was really tired from the past two days. She nestled in Li Boshan's arms at night and fell into a deep sleep without even saying a complete sentence.
When I woke up again, it was already dawn, no one was around, and there seemed to be movement in the yard.
She thought it was the Li brothers who had gone to cook, so she quickly put on some clothes and left the house.
In an instant, all three people in the yard turned their eyes to her.
The scene before me was really unexpected...
The old man stood in front of the door with his hands behind his back, wearing a majestic and elegant robe. The two brothers were in the open space under the steps, tied up in horseback and wearing thin clothes. Judging from the number of people, it seemed that this was not the first day they had practiced like this.
No wonder he is so strong and has such good physical strength...
"Well, well, I'll cook later."
Feng Yanhong's ears felt hot and she returned to the house again.
After breakfast, before she even collected the bowls, someone came to visit her again.
The clothes of these people today are obviously better than those of yesterday, most of them are carrying four kinds of gifts, and their speech is more polite and less casual than those of yesterday.
Today, the second grandfather did not ask Feng Yanhong to go in to make tea, but instead asked the two brothers to come in.
Grandpa Er gave her fifty yuan when she got up early and prepared food and wine. It seemed that the people who came today would definitely stay for lunch.
After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Feng Yanhong relied on her memory and asked someone for directions to the farmer's market to buy fish and meat.
She didn't know how many people would stay for dinner, so she simply bought more. Anyway, in this weather, things couldn't go bad. She also bought a lot of ready-made braised food, just because she was afraid that no one would help and she wouldn't be able to make it out at noon.
More meals.
Feng Yanhong carried two baskets and entered the alley. It was very difficult to walk.
"Hey, this is the granddaughter-in-law of Second Master's family, right? Why did you buy so many things? Second Master has to entertain guests? Come here and let me help you get it."
Feng Yanhong raised her eyes and saw that this person came to the house yesterday.
"Uncle Li Guo, thank you."
Her memory is not bad. There were so many people yesterday, so she was able to cope with the number.
"Hey, this girl has a good memory. There were so many people yesterday, but you still remember your uncle Li Guo?"
"I'll ask my guy to help you later."
"Where can I go..."
"Don't be polite to your Uncle Liguo. We are all neighbors, and it is the second master's family's business. No one can ignore it."
