In the early morning, the sun rose in the east, and the two of them got up early.
Leiyin started her daily cleaning work as always, sweeping the floor, wiping the furniture, and tidying up the living room.
After Xu Fei completed his regular daily exercises, he felt that his physical fitness was better than before. He swung a sword weighing tens of kilograms a thousand times without breaking a sweat.
So Pi Dian Dian went to buy something and came back early, preparing to improve someone's favorability towards her.
Unexpectedly, Leiyin ordered her to take a shower as soon as she got home, because she had to go out to meet her elders later.
After coming out of the bathroom, Xu Fei randomly found a hoodie to put on, but Leiyin was dissatisfied again and asked him to go back to the house to change into more decent clothes.
After changing it four or five times and not being satisfied with it, Leiyin simply took matters into her own hands and rummaged through his closet.
Not long after, Xu Fei walked out embarrassedly wearing a black and blue patterned jacket and pure black slim-fitting jeans.
His sister Xu Yun bought this dress for him. He thought it was a bit slutty, so he kept throwing it away in the cupboard to collect dust.
After Leiyin looked at it, she nodded slightly and turned to eat.
In Sigurd's empire, if bad habits did not change after a man married a wife, the elders would not only blame the husband but also question the wife's ability to run the household.
Looking at the girl's slender figure walking away silently, Xu Fei was confused.
Why does it feel like I'm going to meet her parents?
…
On the 1.8-meter-wide elm wood round table, there are fried dough sticks, pancakes and tofu puffs for two people, as well as a small plate of pickles.
Leiyin held the pancake with both hands and took small bites with a happy smile on her lips.
In the past, it was really hard to maintain an elegant sitting posture when dining on a low coffee table.
After switching to a serious dining table, she was finally able to straighten her back and enjoy the good time of eating.
Plus, the food in this world is really delicious, so I’m in a good mood now.
Xu Fei lowered his head and put a spoonful of tofu puffs into his mouth, his eyelids occasionally raised to peek at the other person's expression.
"...?"
It feels a bit strange, but it’s hard to ask.
Didn't the ancients say, 'An ugly daughter-in-law will feel uneasy when she sees her parents-in-law'?
Why did Leiyin turn around? I don't see any worry at all, but instead look very happy.
"When we go to my parents' house later, we still follow the old rules and don't mention things about the other world." Xu Fei put down the bowls and chopsticks, wiped his mouth and ordered.
"Um……"
Leiyin nodded slightly, then picked up a few pickles and put them into her mouth together with the golden fried dough sticks.
The soft and fragrant fried dough sticks, combined with the sour and salty taste of the pickles, make the overall taste oily but not greasy and chewy.
Leiyin opened her small mouth and narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, surprised by the unique taste produced by the combination of the food.
"Hey, my sister's name is Xu Yun. I told you before that she has a tomboy-like personality. Don't be fooled by her appearance."
"That girl is a monkey, be careful of being talked into, so just try not to talk to her." Xu Fei emphasized with a special wave of his hand.
"good……"
After a simple response, Leiyin took a spoonful of crystal-white tofu curd in her mouth.
It melted in her mouth and left an endless aftertaste, making her cover her mouth with little stars twinkling in her beautiful eyes.
"..."
Xu Fei stared blankly at the silly girl who regarded ordinary breakfast as a delicacy. She suddenly didn't want to talk and couldn't figure out the situation after thinking about it.
Of course he, a straight man who thought he was a normal person, couldn't think of the reason.
Yesterday's seemingly absurd but heart-opening words relieved Leiyin's sadness a lot.
And over the years, if it didn't involve political intrigue or interests, Xu Fei should be the first person to sincerely confess to her.
Although she didn't show any emotion last night, her girlish heart was actually trembling for a long time. After all, it was the first time someone of the opposite sex truly said she liked her.
In addition, Chu Huixin said that she would cook a lot of delicious meals for her today, causing Leiyin's little head to be filled with expectations for delicious food.
Uncle and aunt...are very kind people...the food they cook must be delicious...
…
In Nancheng District, Wanping City, in an ordinary tower community.
Xu Dahai parked the car in a hurry and walked home carrying two large bags full of fresh ingredients and fruits.
When he came to the door of the building, he paused and suddenly remembered that his wife had told him not to smoke at home today!
So he walked out angrily, put the ingredients on the ground, and started smoking.
"Old Xu, why are you shopping for groceries alone?"
A passing elderly scooter suddenly stopped beside him, and a gray-bearded head poked out of the window.
"Isn't my eldest son coming back today? The old lady is at home re-arranging the house, so I had to come out by myself."
Xu Dahai threw a cigarette to the other party as he spoke, and asked doubtfully: "Isn't your shabby car impounded by the traffic team? Is it coming back?"
The old man caught the cigarette, held it in his mouth deftly, took out a lighter and lit it, then frowned and took a deep breath and said:
"Oh, don't mention it! I was fined a thousand and seven dollars, so this month's work will be in vain!"
"I told you several times not to do it, but you just didn't listen." Xu Dahai said helplessly.
This man is a coworker who lives in the same community. He has worked with Xu Dahai and Chu Huixin for many years. Because he is older than them, he just retired a year ago.
I had nothing to do during this period of time, so I bought a mobility scooter and squatted at the gate of the community all day to pick up personal chores and send people to the subway.
"Okay, just bury me. Why did you buy so many vegetables? Xiaofei is not an outsider." The old worker squinted his eyes and took a puff of smoke, slowly blowing it out from his nose.
"Why don't my daughter-in-law come over too?" Xu Dahai said casually.
"Then the boy has a wife?" The old coworker said, thinking it was a pity.
Xiao Fei is a good-looking child, works hard, and has no bad habits.
The main reason is that he has a good temper, but he will probably become henpecked after marriage, and the woman will definitely be in charge of the accounts then.
This is simply the perfect working-class son-in-law! I really regret not introducing my second daughter to the old Xu family earlier.
"Nonsense! We're already twenty-four, can we do without?" Xu Dahai puffed out smoke, feeling finally relieved.
He and his three children have nothing to worry about. All his friends in his hometown have grandsons in their arms, but he is still eagerly looking forward to their children getting married.
Beep beep, the phone rings.
Xu Dahai shivered instinctively, without even looking at who the person was, and quickly answered the call.
"Hello……"
However, as soon as he said a word, a roar came from the other side.
"What an old man, he smokes and talks all day long!"
"I knew the girl would be here soon, so I didn't hurry up and bring the things up! I don't know how to cook all day long, and I don't care about housework! Come on, I'm waiting to start the fire!"
Beep beep...the phone hangs up.
The two of them looked up at the same time. From the window on the third floor, Chu Huixin was staring at them with an angry face.
Xu Dahai: "..."
Old coworker: "..."
"Ahem, if she doesn't get her bed fixed for three days, I'll take care of her when I get home. I'll go up first."
Xu Dahai's face turned red, and after saying something casual, he quickly picked up his things and ran into the corridor.
