When the third sister and her future brother-in-law came back in the heavy rain, pink bubbles were all over their bodies.
As someone who had experienced this, Tian Mi could tell at a glance that the two of them had taken a big step forward.
This is really cause for celebration.
However, knowing that Xinxin was sensitive, she did not tease her too much. Instead, she pretended that she did not notice anything and asked the two of them to bring hot water to the room to wash up so as not to catch a cold.
Especially Wang Linkun, he was completely wet.
After the two of them left with the water, Tian Mi asked her husband curiously, "Why did I feel that Wang Linkun looked at me with a rather... resentful look just now?"
Lou Luhui was slicing fish fillets according to his wife's instructions. Hearing this, he didn't even raise his head and asked, "Are you happy and stupid?"
"Hey, it's possible! Third sister is such a good girl."
"My wife is the best." The man is very good at speaking.
Tian Mi's lips curled slightly, but she rolled her eyes at her husband. Just as she was about to say something, a strange female voice came from behind her:
"Cousin? Busy?"
"Are you Chunxiu?" Upon hearing the voice, Tian Mi turned around and stared at the woman at the kitchen door for a long time before he was sure that the middle-aged woman with dark skin, thin figure, square face, was the cousin from his aunt's family who was a dozen days younger than him and insisted on marrying an educated youth.
It's been less than three years, and the changes are so great that Tian Mi almost couldn't recognize him.
Chunxiu couldn't help but be stunned when she saw her cousin's increasingly beautiful face.
Especially when she saw the tall and handsome soldier next to her, she was already feeling a little uneasy, and now she was so embarrassed that she didn't know where to put her legs.
Seeing this, Tian Mi winked at her husband and quickly walked forward, enthusiastically pulling the man in: "Come in quickly, it's raining heavily outside."
Here, Lou Luhui quickly processed the last bit of fish meat, nodded at the uncomfortable woman, and went to the main room.
Chunxiu's tense expression relaxed a lot in an instant.
Seeing her like this, Tian Mi didn't rush to ask her what she was doing here in such a heavy rain. After asking her to sit down, he made her a cup of malted milk and then teased her, "You weren't like this before. When did you see me without saying something?"
Hearing this, the alienation that had lasted for several years was instantly broken. Chunxiu also smiled, and obviously felt that she was too childish before: "You like me to tickle you, and I can tickle you now, do you want to listen?"
Tian Mi hummed twice, poured himself a glass of water, dragged a stool and sat next to her, and asked: "Why did you come here in the heavy rain? Is there something wrong?"
"Nothing. I just thought that on a nice day, there would be a lot of people here, so I won't join in the fun."
Who believes this
Tian Mi was not stupid, but since the other party was unwilling to talk, she had no intention of digging into the matter.
So we picked some insensitive topics to talk about.
For example, their own children.
Chunxiu, who has been married for three years, is also a mother of two children.
But unlike Tian Mi’s twins, Chunxiu had two babies in three years, both boys.
However, they were not very familiar with each other, so they only chatted for about ten minutes before Chunxiu stood up and said goodbye. She pointed at the vegetables in the basket and said embarrassedly, "It's nothing special. They are all grown in our own garden. Don't despise them."
How could she dislike it? Tian Mi sighed in her heart, but smiled and said, "I just happened to be in need of these. You sent them at the right time. Otherwise, I would have to spend money to buy them."
Regardless of whether this was true or not, the attitude was indeed soothing, so Chunxiu smiled again and helped bring all the dishes to the table.
Just then, Tian Xin, who had changed into clean clothes, walked in.
Just like her second sister, the little girl was stunned for a moment before recognizing the person: "Sister Chunxiu?"
Chunxiu has heard a lot of news about her two cousins these days, especially cousin Tian Xin, because she has changed so much.
Unlike Tian Mi, she has been beautiful since childhood and is famous in the surrounding villages.
But Tian Xin is not like that. When she was young, she was skinny and thin. At most, she was not ugly, but she was not pretty at all.
But now, three years have passed, and she has become so beautiful that it is dazzling.
very nice
Chunxiu stared at the little girl for a long time with complicated eyes, and then she said with emotion: "The third girl has grown up."
Tian Xin didn't say anything else. She just smiled at everyone and then walked aside to prepare lunch.
Tian Mi sent Chunxiu out.
Chunxiu walked out several steps holding an umbrella, turned around and looked at her cousin who seemed to be from two different worlds. She suddenly said with some shame: "If someone introduces a date to the third girl, or asks you, my cousin, to help find a job in my name, don't pay attention to it."
She took a few steps forward, frowned and asked, "Did the educated youth surnamed Sun ask you to come?"
Chunxiu choked for a few seconds, but in the end she said nothing, only showing a smile that was not really a smile: "I'm just reminding you, don't promise anyone easily, if you open a door, more people will come to you."
After saying this, she turned and left. But after taking two steps, she stopped and looked back again, her eyes red as if she regretted and sighed, "Cousin, I should have listened to you back then."
"Then study. I remember your grades were not worse than mine. Didn't you say that you regretted not listening to me? It's not too late to listen to me now." After saying this, Tian Mi didn't look at her expression again and turned back to the kitchen.
Chunxiu was left alone standing in the rain holding an umbrella, stunned for a long time.
Then his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Chunxiu is here? Why didn't she stay at home for lunch?" It was during lunch time that Tian Hongxing realized that her niece was here.
Tian Mi: "I kept it. She was worried about the children at home, so I gave her a can of malted milk and some snacks to sweeten the mouths of my nephews."
"Give it to me. The child is suffering too."
Tian Mi didn't ask how hard it was, but considering that educated youth Sun was lazy and gluttonous, and still thought of himself as a high-handed city dweller, she could imagine what kind of life Chunxiu was leading.
But this was someone else's business, and Tian Mi didn't want to get involved too much. Instead, she asked about another thing on her mind: "Dad, I got a place for the fourth girl to join the army, but she's not interested in it. So I was thinking, should I give this place to a relative?"
Chunxiu is right. Helping one person is like opening a door, and there will be endless trouble later.
But if one person doesn't help, wasting the spot in his hand, and he is not willing to help others, it seems a bit unreasonable.
To put it bluntly, this quota is dispensable to her, but for those in need, it is a life-saving straw.
Tian Mi hadn't thought about this at first, but Chunxiu's arrival reminded her.
But who to help is a difficult problem.
Tian Hongxing didn't expect her daughter to be so capable, and subconsciously smiled happily.
Then he quickly felt a headache again: "With so many relatives, it wouldn't be appropriate to give it to anyone, right?"
"Then you won't give it to me?"
Tian Hongxing shook his head: "I still have to give it. During the past few days since you came back, people have come to our house every day. I will go to discuss it with my uncle later."
Then he looked at his third daughter and future third son-in-law and asked, "When are you two going to get married?"
"Puff, cough, cough." Tian Mi was choked by her father's sudden turn of events.
While patting his wife's back, Lou Luhui glared at Wang Linkun several times with a sour look. After all, it was not so easy when he wanted to marry her.
The father-in-law spoke himself!
I’m so envious.
Tian Hongxing glared at her second daughter: "It's not your wedding, why are you so excited? You can even choke while eating."
Tian Mi took the handkerchief handed over by her husband and wiped the corners of her mouth, saying speechlessly: "Dad, what are you thinking about? Xinxin and Linkun just confirmed their relationship more than an hour ago. Isn't it too hasty to get married?"
"We're already dating, what else can we talk about if not marriage?" Tian Hongxing then turned her anger to her future third son-in-law: "Lin Kun, you say!"
Wang Linkun. He can't wait to get married in the afternoon, but does he dare
In fact, he didn't dare.
But it would be perfect if the uncle could make the little girl change her mind.
So he smiled warmly, and in front of his father-in-law, he made his family status clear: "Uncle Ke, I'll listen to Xinxin about this matter. She said she would consider getting married after she turns 20."
Hearing this, Tian Hongxing understood. The young people had already discussed this matter, so he looked at the blushing third daughter and reminded her, "That's fine. If you're over 20, then you're over 20. But don't delay it for too long, okay? Lin Kun is already old."
Wang Linkun's smile gradually froze.
At their age, Tian Mi looked at her husband and tried to hold back her laughter.
Although Tian Xin was a little embarrassed, she still nodded, and said softly, "I know, Dad. It won't...it won't take long."
The third daughter has been well-behaved and obedient since she was young. Tian Hongxing was very pleased and smiled as he gave his honest daughter a limit: "It's better to get engaged first, so that you can have a clear path on both sides. As for the age of marriage, Dad also has a limit. Anyway, we can't wait until Xiao Wang is 30 years old to get married, because that would be too old."
Now it was Lou Luhui's turn to have his gloating smile frozen on his face.
