Chapter 196 Future Sister-in-law Meets

Mother Shen understood that Shen Xiaoxia brought these things back out of filial piety. Although she was touched, she also felt sorry for her, "Forget it this time. You can keep these things for yourself in the future.

How about this, when you go back, take all this with you. You don’t have much luggage anyway, so it won’t be a hassle to carry it!”

She thought that she would buy some other things and give them to Shen Xiaoxia so that she could take them back and eat with her friends!

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiaoxia quickly refused, shaking her head like a rattle, "No need, right? I've already brought it back, why would I take it back? Why don't we just leave it at home and eat it together as a family? How nice!"

Mother Shen still wanted to persuade her, "If you want to eat at home, you can go buy it yourself. You should take these things back when the time comes, right?"

Shen Xiaoxia had to persuade Shen's mother to agree to keep the things!

At noon, Shen Xiaoxia stood by the stove, diligently helping her mother prepare lunch. She expertly chopped the vegetables, each cut crisp and clear, the leaves neatly arranged on the chopping board. Shen Xiaoxia watched her mother busying around, a trace of doubt in her heart. After hesitating for a moment, she softly asked, "Mom, why do you come back to cook for yourself at noon? Wouldn't it be easier to eat directly at the factory with Dad?"

Mother Shen stopped what she was doing, raised her head, and with a gentle smile on her face, she patiently explained, "If we don't eat at the factory, we won't have to deduct food expenses when we get paid. Besides, our home is not far from the factory, so it's convenient to come back and eat by ourselves, and the food will be more palatable!"

After listening to what her mother said, Shen Xiaoxia secretly sighed in her heart. She felt that this was too much trouble. If it were her, she would definitely not even think about cooking during the short break at noon, not to mention that there was still a long way to go. Even if she could get home as soon as she left the factory, she would still think cooking was a very troublesome thing!

After lunch, Shen Xiaoxia looked at her slightly tired mother and said considerately, "Mom, you should go and have a rest first. Leave the cleaning work to me!"

Shen's mother did not refuse. She looked at her daughter with satisfaction, her heart filled with comfort. She felt that compared to before, Shen Xiaoxia who came back this time was much more sensible, as if she had grown up a lot in an instant!

After Shen's father and mother went to work, thinking about meeting her future sister-in-law in the afternoon, Shen Xiaoxia decided to take a nap, recuperate, and appear in her best condition.

Lying on the bed, she soon fell asleep. When it was almost four o'clock, Shen Xiaoxia woke up slowly, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and quickly sat up from the bed.

After getting up, she looked in the mirror and carefully combed her hair. Her hair was black and shiny, hanging softly behind her. She skillfully divided it into two strands and expertly braided them into pigtails. Each braid was neatly braided without a trace of mess.

After braiding her hair, she picked up two light red hairbands and tied them on her braids, adding a touch of youthfulness to her hair.

After getting herself ready, Shen Xiaoxia went out.

I walked out of the house and walked slowly along the alley. The alley was filled with a faint smell of fireworks, and occasionally I could hear the voices of neighbors talking and children playing.

As she walked, Shen Xiaoxia unknowingly came to the street. Perhaps because it was near the end of the year, there were obviously more people on the street.

People were dressed differently. Some were wrapped in thick cotton-padded clothes, wrapping themselves tightly with only their eyes exposed, while others were wearing padded jackets, which looked lighter.

Everyone's face was filled with joy at the upcoming New Year, and they were walking hurriedly on the road. Some of them were carrying large and small bags of New Year's goods, and some were chatting happily with their companions. Almost everyone was immersed in the New Year's atmosphere.

Taking out her watch and looking at it, it was almost half past four. Shen Xiaoxia quickened her pace and walked towards the department store.

The department store was bustling with activity at this time.

There were people coming and going at the door, and the customers coming in and out were carrying large and small bags of things in their hands. Some were carrying bags full of candy, some were holding new clothes, and some were holding various daily necessities.

Shen Xiaoxia stood at the entrance of the shopping mall, her eyes constantly searching for the figures of her elder brother and future sister-in-law in the crowd. She was still a little expectant in her heart. She was looking forward to meeting her future sister-in-law, and was curious about what kind of person she was!

After a while, a slightly worn bicycle slowly drove over. The rider was Shen Weidong, who was wearing a gray jacket that had been washed to a pale color.

Although his clothes were a little old, he still dressed himself neatly, with his hair combed back neatly, every strand of hair in place, and a happy smile on his face. Behind him sat a woman in a red floral cotton jacket.

Without waiting for the bicycle to stop, the woman jumped off first, and then waited for Shen Weidong to park and lock the bicycle. The two of them walked side by side towards Shen Xiaoxia.

Shen Xiaoxia also hurried to meet him.

"Brother," Shen Xiaoxia was the first to shout with a smile, her voice clear and pleasant!

When Shen Weidong saw Shen Xiaoxia, his face showed an even brighter smile, "Xia Xia, you came so early? Are you cold? Why don't you go in and wait?"

His eyes were full of concern and his tone was very gentle.

Shen Xiaoxia smiled, showing a few teeth, "It's okay, I'm dressed warmly, I'm not cold!"

As she spoke, she cast her gaze in the direction of her future sister-in-law. Shen Weidong saw her gaze and immediately turned around to introduce, "Xia Xia, this is my girlfriend, Sun Yufen. Yufen, this is my sister Shen Xiaoxia!"

For the first time, Shen Xiaoxia looked at her future sister-in-law up close. Sun Yufen had a well-proportioned figure and was slightly plump, giving people a very friendly feeling.

Her skin is fair with a faint glow, her eyes are not small and very bright. When she smiles, her eyebrows and eyes are curved, revealing a gentleness.

Her nose bridge is not high, but it is very straight, fitting perfectly on her face, adding a sense of three-dimensionality to her features.

There is always a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, making people feel that she is an optimistic and cheerful person. Her hair is also tied into two braids, but they are thicker than Shen Xiaoxia's. She looks very capable and gives people a very reliable feeling!

"Sister Yufen," Shen Xiaoxia was the first to call out. After all, they weren't married yet, and she was afraid it wouldn't be nice to call her sister-in-law directly.

Sun Yufen looked at Shen Xiaoxia in front of her, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes!

I heard that Shen Xiaoxia has been in the countryside for two years. She has also seen what her friends look like after going to the countryside. Most of them have become dark, thin, and weathered.

In her imagination, Shen Xiaoxia might be like that, but the Shen Xiaoxia in front of her looked quite outstanding!
