"Oh, look at what you said," Xiao's mother said happily, "You said, uncle and aunt are listening."

"Right, right, right," Xiao's father didn't care about the embarrassment when talking about his son's lifelong event. He quickly agreed, "If you have anything to say, just tell us. Sit down and we can discuss it as a family."

Wen Ran pursed her lips. She felt that her request was a little presumptuous.

At least, it is quite presumptuous now.

"It's like this. I built this house, but it would be a waste if I don't live in it."

indeed.

Xiao's mother agreed with Wen Ran's words.

Although Wen Ran's house was built with yellow mud bricks, they were solidly built and covered with brand new tiles.

The houses that many families buy for their weddings are not as good as this one.

"So, I was thinking, can I let Xiao Chenye live here with me after I get married?"

After hearing these words, Xiao's father and mother were stunned for a moment.

Wen Ran's words were somewhat shocking to people at that moment.

After all, it is a common custom that when getting married, the woman marries into the man's family.

Even in some rare cases where a separate house is built when the couple gets married, the woman will live with the man.

For someone like Wen Ran, who asked Xiao Chenye to live in her house, besides being a son-in-law, she was really a young lady getting married.

That's the first time.

Xiao's mother and father looked at each other, confused, and began to think.

Wen Ran grabbed the hem of her clothes, her heart in her throat.

The reason I can't leave, besides wanting to live in my own home, is...

Red fruit.

Since she chose to bring Hongguo home as her sister, she had to take on this responsibility.

She can't just get married and leave Hongguo here alone without caring about her.

As for Xiao Chenye...

Ah!

These two men have never been in their right minds.

Now I'm starting to miss flowers.

Hehehe, Ranran is going to marry me~

As for those problems, Xiao Chenye didn't take them to heart. He had thought about this problem a long time ago and even had a solution.

Right now, this is a good opportunity to see the attitudes of both sides...

~

"Auntie, I..."

Mother Xiao raised her hand and said, "Wait a moment, I'll think about it."

Her attitude was calm, even thoughtful.

Xiao Chenye, this kid, has not been home much since he joined the county transport team.

Xiao Chenguang comes back once or twice a year, and Xiao Chenye is only slightly better than him. He runs for half a month and comes back for half a month. During this half month, he is away from home for the other half.

He acts mysteriously outside every day and no one knows what he is doing.

So, if you calculate it, this brat is only at home for a few days throughout the year.

It doesn’t make much difference to the old couple whether they live at the Xiao family or at Wen Ran’s place. It’s just about a ten-minute walk away.

However, it is definitely deserted.

I thought the addition of a new member to the family would make it more lively, but...

Forget it.

Xiao's mother is also open-minded. She thinks it's good that her child has grown up and has his own ideas.

After she had thought it over, she asked Father Xiao, "What do you think?"

Father Xiao became calmer and raised his eyelids. "Me? I can do anything."

After saying that, he paused, a little unsure, "You can't come and live with me, right?"

He was marrying off his son, not giving away his own wife.

Mother Xiao: "..."

She raised her hand and punched Father Xiao. "What are you talking about? How can this yard accommodate so many people?"

Seeing that Father Xiao was calm, Mother Xiao turned to Wen Ran and said, "For matters like this, you young people can just discuss it. Your uncle and I have no objection. It would be a waste to leave this nice house unoccupied.

Besides, we're not far away, so it's very convenient to come and go."

After saying that, Xiao's mother waved her hand and said, "I have no objection!"

Wen Ran smiled, "Auntie, don't worry..."

"No," Xiao Chenye interrupted everyone's discussion, confused, "No one came to ask for my opinion?"

Xiao's mother: "...Your opinion is not important. Where can't you sleep? You can even sleep soundly in a doghouse."

Wen Ran chuckled. Xiao Chenye scratched his head, embarrassed, "Mom, that was so many years ago, how can you still remember it?"

"Humph!"

Taking this opportunity, Xiao's mother hurriedly complained to Wen Ran, "This child also has shallow dimples. When he was sixteen or seventeen years old, his father took him to visit relatives and friends during the New Year. He was greedy and drank two glasses of wine.

He fell down as soon as he got home. He refused to sleep in the house and insisted on sleeping in the doghouse.

The Red Army was still young at that time, and they cried out in frustration because of the crowding."

Dark history requires reviewing to gain new insights.

But compared to taking her to the bear's den, sleeping in the doghouse seems a bit insignificant.

"Mom, let's talk about business, don't talk about those things."

Xiao Chenye looked at Wen Ran, "Ranran, if, I mean, if."

"You said."

"If there is a house like this that can accommodate our whole family, do you think you can accept it?"

Wen Ran: “…”

She looked at Xiao Chenye suspiciously and hesitated for a moment.

Xiao's mother thought Wen Ran wanted to live alone, and hurriedly said, "Hey, why are you saying that? There's no place here that can accommodate so many people.

Old Five, you…"

"Auntie, don't worry," Wen Ran said, fearing that Xiao's mother might misunderstand him. "I think I know what Xiao Chenye means."

"what?"

"Are you planning to build a new house?"

Xiao Chenye smiled, his face swollen, and he grinned, his teeth bared due to the wound, "Hiss, hiss, hiss~ Ranran still understands me!

I really want to build a new house.”

Xiao's father and mother still live in the old house that was built nearly thirty years ago.

Made of adobe.

Although it is well maintained, the old feeling cannot be removed.

"I was thinking of discussing this later, but since Ranran mentioned it today, let's just finalize it."

Xiao's mother was the first to disagree, "Ah? I live in that house very well, why would I change it if there is nothing wrong?"

Father Xiao did not express any opinion, but just looked at Xiao Chenye.

"Mom, we should build a new house when we get married. It's not like our family is short of money." Xiao Chenye was still quite confident about the matter of money.

This……

Although this is what they say, the older generation is used to being frugal.

But Father Xiao suddenly asked, "What kind of house are you planning to build?"

Xiao Chenye felt that this was nonsense, "What do you mean?"

Father Xiao said cautiously, "I have to see what kind of house you build before deciding whether to support you."

Xiao Chenye: "..."

What a living dad.

"A brick and tile house."

After hearing this, Xiao's mother was excited and Xiao's father was excited.

Xiao's mother refused outright, "No, how much does a blue brick and tile house cost? Even if we have money, we can't afford to spend money like this!"

You kid, you have no reason to show off just because you made some money!"

Father Xiao changed his previous calm demeanor and supported it with both hands eagerly, "I think it's okay, a blue brick and tile house is good!"
