Obviously, Xu Yan's family had always been polite and distant towards her before, so wasn't this too abnormal today?

Especially the second sister Xu Mei. When she just came in, Su Wanwan could see something out of character on her face.

Xu Mei has never been good at disguising herself, and this feeling is even more obvious now.

After the meal, Su Wanwan tasted many flavors that she had only imagined in her dreams before.

It seems that the times are developing very fast...

The taste of these duck necks was almost the same as those she often ate decades later.

"I'm stuffed."

Putting down the bowl of fish soup, Su Wanwan noticed that the fish Xu Yan used to make tomato fish soup actually had no bones. After drinking the whole bowl of soup, the corner of the table in front of her was still clean.

Nowadays, no one would sell things like hairtail and dragonfish...

I don't know where Xu Yan got it from...

"Well, then you warm up on the kang first, and I'll take you home after I finish cleaning up."

As Xu Yan spoke, he quickened his eating speed. The eldest sister Xu Lan and the second sister Xu Mei looked at each other, and suddenly stood up from their seats at the same time and walked to the next room.

Suddenly, Xu Yan and Su Wanwan were the only ones left on the kang.

"Tell me the truth, are you hiding something from me?"

After seeing the secretive and even weird expression on Xu Mei's face just now, Su Wanwan felt a little uneasy.

Why did Xu Yan let her come to his house for dinner for no reason? And why did he let her eat such a sumptuous meal?

No... this meal can no longer be described as sumptuous. Even the mayor would not be able to eat so many delicious things on the table at the same time.

Moreover, the expression on second sister Xu Mei's face couldn't deceive anyone. These people were hiding something from her.

Could it be that I want to ask her for something?

As soon as this thought came to Su Wanwan's mind, she dismissed it. Is there anything that Xu Yan can't do on his own that requires him to come to her?

Besides, even if you want to ask her to do something, you just need to say it. There's no need to keep it as a mystery, right?

After thinking about it, Su Wanwan just couldn't think of any reason.

"Nothing serious. I just went to the county and bought some delicious food. I wanted to share it with Wanwan."

The nicer Xu Yan's words sounded, the less Su Wanwan believed them.

But she chose not to ask further.

After all, Xu Yan said he would take her home later. Maybe after they go out, Xu Yan will be willing to tell her.

Just when Xu Yan quickly finished his meal and was about to get off the kang to clear the table, his eldest sister Xu Lan and second sister Xu Mei, who had just left, walked in side by side.

What made Su Wanwan's eyes widen was that the two people who had just gone out did not go to the toilet or to work, but went to the next room to change into new clothes!

"Big sister, second sister, what are you doing..."

This isn't a festival, why did these two people change into new clothes at the same time? Could it be because they had a good meal?

Su Wanwan blinked and quickly followed Xu Yan off the kang.

Everything seems so weird today.

"Do you think my clothes look good? Will they embarrass our Xu Yan when I go out?"

Eldest sister Xu Lan did not answer Su Wanwan's surprised question, but just patted the rose-red short jacket on her body, looking forward to Su Wanwan's evaluation.

"Ah... I think the color of this cotton jacket suits your skin tone very well. You are fair to begin with." Su Wanwan said perfunctorily and put on her shoes quickly.

"Um... I'm full, I'm going to go to the bathroom first."

Having found an excuse that would definitely not be stopped, Su Wanwan immediately ran out, without even putting on the white scarf with yellow flowers that Xu Yan had just put on her.

It was not until she pushed the door open and walked into the snow that Su Wanwan stopped and thought carefully.

Things started to get strange ever since she had borrowed the cafeteria's bicycle to move the chairs parked on the road - Xu Yan suddenly appeared from nowhere, and she didn't even hear the sound of a car engine. Xu Yan drove back again and took her all the way back to the village.

According to previous practice, Xu Yan should have taken her to the factory or sent her directly home, but this time, unusually, he took her directly back to his home.

He also suddenly took out so many delicious foods that he bought in the county town.

Judging from the expressions of the eldest sister Xu Lan and the second sister Xu Mei, I'm afraid the Xu family has never eaten such a sumptuous meal before.

That's where the suspicious part comes in.

Just because he went to the county town, Xu Yan bought so many delicious foods?

But Xu Yan would go to the county town every few days, why did he buy so much this time?

Although Su Wanwan believed in Xu Yan's character in her heart, she couldn't help but think of some other issues.

Could it be that Xu Yan really had something to ask her?

Just as Su Wanwan was standing under the eaves of the Xu family, stamping her feet to keep warm and daydreaming, she suddenly heard a conversation in the house.

Judging from the voices, the people speaking should be Xu Yan and elder sister Xu Lan.

"Are you really going to send her home later? You'd better think about it carefully." From the tone of her voice, it seemed like the eldest sister Xu Lan was talking about something important with Xu Yan.

"Of course I've thought about it. Not only did I think about it today, I thought about it long before today." Xu Yan's answer was so clear and straightforward that it didn't even sound like he had thought about it.

This also shocked Su Wanwan, who was standing outside and eavesdropping, a little.

In her impression, Xu Yan has always been cautious in his words and actions. Sometimes he would rather not say anything than speak nonsense.

How come talking to my eldest sister turned out like this?

"Since you have made up your mind, your second sister and I will go with you. Don't worry, even though your second sister's words may sound unpleasant, she is also thinking about your own good. Besides, you have grown up, and you are the most promising one in our family. We all support your decision."

The conversation ended here. Su Wanwan at the door did not hear any other words. Then the sound of washing dishes was heard quickly.

After standing under the eaves at the entrance of Xu's house for nearly ten minutes, Su Wanwan was shivering from the cold. Just when she decided to go into Xu's house to warm up, the door of the house was suddenly pushed open from the inside, and Xu Yan and the other two came out one after another.

"Let's go, let's take you home."

Seeing Su Wanwan standing under the eaves, Xu Yan wrapped the white scarf in his hand around her without hesitation, grabbed Su Wanwan's wrist, and led her to the car.

"Why don't you come inside? Why are you still freezing outside like this?"

Su Wanwan hummed softly twice and did not answer.

Following Su Wanwan and the others into the car were her eldest sister Xu Lan and second sister Xu Mei, who sat in the back seat.

The car soon arrived at the door of the Su family. Hearing the sound of the engine outside, Zhao Ying, the mother, lifted the door curtain and looked out. Seeing that it was Xu Yan's car, she immediately dropped the rice spoon in her hand and took off her apron as she walked.

"Oh, why is Xu Yan here? He didn't even tell me in advance."
