Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

While Zhao Ying was speaking, Xu Lan and Xu Mei in the back seat also got out of the car.

"Hey, Xu Lan and Xu Mei are here too!"

In Shuitian Village, the Xu family and the Su family have never had much interaction. Previously, the Xu family had caused a lot of trouble because of Xu Yan and Xu En, which suddenly made the Xu family the center of attention in the village. Naturally, other people in the village would intentionally or unintentionally keep their distance from the Xu family.

Although the Su family is the village chief's family, they are inevitably like other people in the village and have unknowingly distanced themselves from the Xu family.

So Zhao Ying was very surprised when Xu Lan and Xu Mei suddenly followed Xu Yan home.

"Mom, it's so cold outside, let's go inside and talk."

Su Wanwan, who got down from the passenger seat, quickly put her hands in her pockets, half of her face buried in her scarf, and her voice was muffled.

Xu Lan and Xu Mei suddenly changed into such bright clothes while they were having dinner, and followed Xu Yan and her to the Su's house. They must have something to say. Although Su Wanwan didn't know what the two were going to do, the conversation she heard while standing outside the Su's door just now seemed to have a hidden meaning. Su Wanwan, who couldn't figure it out in her mind, just wanted these people to come into the house quickly and explain things clearly.

"Oh, look, I forgot. Hurry up, the meal is just ready, come in and eat." Zhao Ying glanced at Su Wanwan, and immediately took Xu Lan's hand with a smile, and took her and Xu Mei beside her, and walked quickly into the house.

"No need, Mom. I just had dinner at Xu Yan's house. I'm very full. You don't need to prepare my own bowl and chopsticks." Su Wanwan walked quickly and was the first to enter the house.

I happened to run into my sister-in-law Jiang Shuzhen, who came out wearing an apron and holding a soup spoon.

"We just had dinner with Wanwan. Auntie, you don't have to be so enthusiastic. It's embarrassing." Xu Lan, who was walking beside Zhao Ying, smiled embarrassedly, and suddenly pinched Xu Mei's waist with the hand hanging by her side.

"Oh, look at me, I was so happy that I forgot to get my things."

Xu Mei, who was pinched on the waist, then remembered an important thing. After complaining, she quickly turned around and ran to Xu Yan's car parked on the side of the road, and took out a brown cloth bag from the trunk.

In the darkness of the night, with snowflakes still floating, people naturally could not see what was in the brown cloth bag.

"Now that you're here, what do you want to do? You are all juniors in my eyes, and I have to get something for you." After Zhao Ying welcomed everyone into the house, he immediately arranged for Su Gao and Su Di to bring stools.

"Actually, we didn't come here for anything. It was mainly for our third child and Wanwan."

As soon as Zhao Ying pulled her to sit down, Xu Lan spoke directly to the point.

Jiang Shuzhen, wearing an apron, was always waiting for Zhao Ying's look, not knowing whether to bring out the prepared meal in the kitchen.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to work in the kitchen for now. We have just eaten." Su Wanwan walked to the somewhat embarrassed sister-in-law Jiang Shuzhen and reminded her in a low voice, while paying attention to every word Xu Lan said.

"Is it about that factory?" Zhao Ying opened his eyes wide.

The last person to walk into the room was Xu Yan. Like Xu Mei, he was also holding a box in his hand.

Seeing this scene, Su Wanwan narrowed her eyes.

How come this looks so much like a gift?

"It's not about the factory, it's... a private matter." Xu Mei at the side answered in a low voice.

"Our third child Xu Yan has always been close to your Wan Wan. I think they are about the same age, and I always hear the third child say that he likes Wan Wan a little bit, so my eldest sister and I decided that since our father is not at home, we, the sisters, should take charge of his affairs."

Unable to hold her temper, Xu Mei told them all the reasons for their visit, and then quickly picked up the brown cloth bag in her hand.

"We came here this time just to explain this matter to you first. Oh, of course...it mainly depends on their attitude. You can take these eggs as a gift. It doesn't matter whether they succeed or not...hahaha."

Ever since Xu Mei opened her mouth, the entire hall fell silent. As she spoke, Xu Mei herself felt a little lacking in confidence. She had clearly rehearsed with Xu Lan countless times before coming here, and had secretly memorized every sentence before speaking, but when it came time to speak, she performed worse and worse due to nervousness.

At the end, she even had to use dry laughter to cover up her embarrassment of lack of confidence.

Hearing that Xu Lan and Xu Mei from the Xu family came over for this purpose, Su Gao and Su Di looked at each other in surprise. Jiang Shuzhen, who was usually calm and emotionless, was also slightly surprised.

"Ah?" It was Su Wanwan herself who finally broke the silence.

Su Wanwan's slightly hoarse questioning voice brought Zhao Ying back to his senses.

"So what you mean is, come over and help the Third Brother clear up this matter?"

Logically speaking, the times are better now and young people can fall in love freely. When the relationship is almost confirmed, they can inform both parents and let the parents meet to negotiate.

But the situation of the Xu family is different after all. After Old Man Xu returned home from the clinic last time, he experienced an extremely serious condition and has been recuperating in the county hospital. It is said that he cannot do without the equipment in the county hospital. If he leaves the hospital and goes home, I am afraid his condition will worsen again, and he will not be able to come and take care of Xu Yan's relationship.

The only people in the Xu family who could advocate for this matter on behalf of Old Man Xu were Xu Yan's two sisters.

That being said...it's quite appropriate.

Eldest sister Xu Lan gave her younger sister a private reproachful look, then smiled and nodded at Zhao Ying with a slightly apologetic look.

"Ah, okay, okay."

This was the first time Zhao Ying had encountered such a situation. Although she remained serious and calm, she was suddenly confused and at a loss. She was holding the bag of eggs that Xu Mei had almost half stuffed into her hand. She should be happy about it, but she didn't know what expression to make. She pinched the opening of the brown cloth bag several times with one hand, and then she suddenly figured out what to do...

"You can't ask me about this matter. You have to ask Wanwan's own attitude."

Ever since she made that surprised sound, Su Wanwan stood there like a bronze pillar, motionless. Her eyes could not see anyone else except Xu Yan who was standing opposite her.

No wonder……

No wonder Xu Yan said that just now... No wonder Xu Lan and Xu Mei suddenly changed their clothes with great interest.

It turned out that he was coming to their house to propose marriage.

Oh, no, to express my feelings on behalf of Xu Yan?

Su Wanwan could never have imagined that the scene where Xu Yan confessed his love to her would be like this...

"Cough cough." Su Wanwan simply coughed twice as a response to Zhao Ying's words.

And then——the air remained silent.

"Wanwan, I'm sorry for not telling you in advance. I have always liked you in my heart. Are you willing to be with me?"

Su Wanwan's brain buzzed a few times, and before her facial muscles could react, her neck quickly bounced a few times like a spring.
