Mei Fang picked up Xia Yuan, who had dressed "simply", and drove to his uncle Mei Lixiong's house for dinner.
Mei Fang called her mother Xiang Xiaoxia in advance to say hello. Xiang Xiaoxia was a little surprised after hearing this, but still welcomed Yuanyuan's arrival.
This kid... really doesn't consider us Ah Fang as outsiders
It seems there is still hope!
In fact, after discussing the topic of borrowing sex to have a child that night, although Xiang Xiaoxia felt that this plan might be feasible, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
After all, in this way, their own child becomes a tool-like existence, as if Yuanyuan and Youxi have no feelings for Mei Fang.
If he thought in this way, it wouldn't be so difficult for him to accept the embrace of others.
At least it's okay not to do such things openly...
After the ancestral home of Uncle Mei Lixiong was demolished, his family moved into a new resettlement house. However, not long after living in this house, Mei Yue had already started to arrange to buy a new large flat. The family's life is getting better and better, which is a far cry from the situation in her previous life when her daughter went crazy.
"I'm coming... Uncle, Auntie, long time no see!"
"Ah, here you are, Mei Fang. Please come in quickly." Mei Fang's aunt, Tan Xiu, hurriedly and enthusiastically invited Mei Fang to come in.
"Would you like to change your shoes?"
"No, just come in."
"Hmm... Hello, uncle and aunt! Do you remember me?"
The beautiful girl Xia Yuan who appeared from behind Mei Fang greeted the two of them with a smile, and uncle Mei Lixiong quickly greeted them.
"Oh my, this is Yuanyuan, right? We met before when we came to Baimei County. I remember you were Mei Fang's girlfriend—"
Tan Xiu, who was standing by, heard Xiang Xiaoxia talk about Mei Fang's love history. After listening to it, she subconsciously pulled Mei Lixiong, frowned and shook her head to remind him. Mei Fang also took Xia Yuan's arm to smooth things over.
"It's okay, it's okay, just treat it as your girlfriend."
Xia Yuan didn't feel awkward when her "ex-boyfriend" Mei Fang held her arm. Instead, she smiled at the uncle and aunt, "Auntie, is Sister Yueyue home now?"
"She's still sleeping. Speaking of your sister, I'm really worried about you."
When the matter of her daughter was mentioned, Aunt Tan Xiu's face was filled with sorrow. She pulled Mei Fang aside and said:
"Mei Fang, Auntie told you... our family is an ordinary family. We finally had two generations of great people like your father and you. We are very proud of it. But when it comes to money, as long as it is enough, it's fine. We need to have a career and a family, don't you think?"
"Yes... yes, Auntie is right!"
"Take your sister Yueyue for example. She only cares about her career and ignores her family. Many people line up to propose marriage to her. Our sister Yueyue is almost 30 years old and still has no partner. Don't you think she is worried... Your company has hundreds of people now, right? Look at your cousin in the company... Isn't there anyone she likes?"
"This..." Mei Fang scratched his head. After he saved Sister Yueyue, he had not paid much attention to her love history. "It's better to rely on fate. Sister Yueyue has to like it herself. She probably won't listen to you."
"We don't listen, but you are the one who speaks the truth. You two had a very good relationship when you were kids, and you are her boss. If you talk to her more, she will definitely—"
"Mom, what are you talking about here? Are you annoying?"
At this time, Mei Yue was putting her hair up and applying a facial mask on her face. She was only wearing a cartoon pajamas and looked very free and undisciplined. Auntie Tan Xiu expressed her strong dissatisfaction with this:
"Look at you, you're almost 30 years old, why don't you care about your image? Go wash your hair. Look at Yuanyuan, she's dressed so beautifully, like a star."
"We are all family, why should we care about our image?"
Mei Yue said as she pulled Xia Yuan's hand over and said, "Then, I want to solemnly remind you, mom, this classmate Xia Yuan is the most popular idol singer and online anchor right now. It's totally fine to call her a star."
"Then what do you look like?"
"Forget it... I'm too lazy to talk to you. Come, Yuanyuan, sit down. I'll pour you two some drinks."
"No trouble, no trouble, I can just pour myself some hot water."
The well-behaved Yuanbao didn't want to cause trouble for his cousin.
"Okay, then I'll go wash my hair. My mom always puts pressure on me. It's so annoying."
"Same, same, everyone in my family is like this."
In fact, Mei Yue is only 5 years older than Mei Fang and she is only about 26 this year, which is the golden time for her to find a partner. However, she is now completely obsessed with her career and has no intention of dating at all. After dating for two years, it is time for her to talk about marriage. How can her family not be anxious
After Mei Yue got up and left, Xia Yuan leaned over and whispered to Mei Fang, "Sister Yue Yue, your family is under a lot of pressure. Would your family push you so hard if you don't have a partner? I don't understand... If you can be happy living alone, I don't think it's a big deal."
"real?"
Mei Fang scratched Xia Yuan's nose and said, "Think carefully about it. How sad were you the year Youxi and I officially announced our relationship?"
"What's so sad about? I'm not sad at all... I'm just pretending in public, but in private I'm still—"
Xia Yuan suddenly recalled the scene in school where she could only watch Youxi and Ah Fang being intimate. She felt a sour feeling and immediately punched Mei Fang's chest with her fist and said, "You are so mean. Why do you want to bring up my painful memories?"
"That's not even close to the pain!"
Mei Fang felt that he had protected Yuanyuan too well, and she couldn't even bear the pain of love and started to feel aggrieved.
After a while, Mei Lijun, Xiang Xiaoxia and Mei Ya also came to visit their uncle's house. Xiang Xiaoxia went to the kitchen to help, while Mei Lijun and his elder brother chatted about the past. As soon as Mei Ya saw her sister Yuanyuan, she threw herself into her arms.
"Sister Yuanyuan!"
After kissing, hugging and cuddle, Mei Ya looked at Xia Yuan with admiration.
"What's wrong?"
Mei Ya leaned over and whispered to Xia Yuan, causing Xia Yuan to cover her face and squirm with shame.
Mei Fang looked at his wife shyly, and curiously asked his sister: "What did you say to Yuanyuan?"
"I say, Sister Yuanyuan now goes to our relatives' house for dinner with us. She really looks like the daughter-in-law of our old Mei family!"
Mei Fang said as she twisted her sister Mei Ya's head fiercely, "What should you call her?"
"Call...sister-in-law? Sister-in-law, yes, Sister Yuanyuan, Sister Yuan?"
"Well... forget it, don't call me that, it makes me feel uncomfortable."
Mei Fang was scolding Mei Ya when Xia Yuan scolded him: "What do you mean by unpleasant? Do you dislike my name or do you not want to hear Xiao Ya call you sister-in-law? What's wrong with you? Are you itching for trouble?"
"Oh no, doesn't that sound really old-"
The two were bickering in a low voice here, and Meilijun came over with a swagger. The two kids immediately became silent and lowered their heads to play their own games.
Then Meilijun sat next to his son, looking at Xia Yuan who was dressed beautifully, and suddenly felt very proud.
"Yuanyuan, you are so beautiful today."
"Hey, thank you Uncle Mei for the compliment!"
"Don't feel embarrassed about eating later. Just think of it as eating at my house."
"OK!"
Mei Yue came out after washing and drying her hair and greeted Mei Lijun, "Hello, Second Uncle."
"Hey, Yueyue."
Mei Lijun nodded and said, "Yueyue, you just woke up? Why are you still wearing pajamas?"
"It's the New Year holiday, so just lie down and rest at home. It doesn't matter."
"But you are not a child anymore, you still need to be careful—"
"Uncle, you don't know how hard I work. I've been working for our cousin for a whole year, working overtime until very late every day. I'm nothing like Xiao Fangzi, who's either picking up girls or going out to play every day, so carefree—"
"Pick up girls?"
"That's not the case. Look how much Yuanyuan Youxi clings to him..."
Meilijun thought to himself, "So your cousin is also one version behind. I don't know what the situation is now—"
"Are you really not going to dress properly? It's not nice to sit down and eat like this."
"What's the big deal? There are no outsiders here."
Mei Yue smiled and said, "Do you think Yuanyuan is an outsider?"
"Well, I didn't say that." Mei Lijun waved his hand quickly and Mei Yue smiled and said, "That's it, isn't it?"
While everyone was talking, Xia Yuan's phone suddenly rang.
Then Xia Yuan picked up the phone, "Hello, Dad?"
"how?"
"Mom went to Teacher Zhang's house for a dinner party. Me? I... I'm having dinner at Uncle Afang's house."
"Why... I can't go?"
Xia Yuan glanced at Mei Fang, then smiled at him, "Don't worry about it, go find a place to eat by yourself."
"Hey, Yuanyuan, it's New Year's Day, what are you talking about?"
Mei Lijun shouted at the side, "If Lao Xia has no place to eat, why not ask him to come over and eat with us? It will be a good addition to the party."
Xia Xun on the other end of the phone obviously heard Mei Lijun's invitation, and Xia Yuan was also hesitant for a moment after answering the phone.
"So, are you coming?"
"Yeah, okay."
After Xia Yuan hung up the phone, Mei Yue immediately asked nervously, "Yuanyuan, is your dad coming over for dinner too?"
"Ah...Is that so? Why?"
"In that case, I, I have to go and get dressed."
Xia Yuan looked at Mei Yue running towards her bedroom, and suddenly said unhappily: "Sister Yue Yue treats my dad as an outsider."
"Isn't this an outsider... who else could it be?"
"It seems so..."
Mei Fang sighed again, "If I were just an outsider, it would be fine..."
"That's fine... What does that mean?"
"I'm just afraid that your sister Yueyue doesn't want to treat your father as an outsider."
"What?"
Xia Yuan was still standing there, confused, while Mei Ya opened her mouth in surprise, revealing a very shocked expression, and tugged at the corner of Mei Fang's clothes repeatedly:
"Brother, is this melon ripe?"
