Evening.
Hui Tian Village, Luan Family.
A Volkswagen Santana stopped in front of the house, and Dong Xuebing alighted from the car. He took out a few bags from the trunk. There are clothes, ties, toiletries, and food. Xie Huilan also took two bags from him and entered the house with Dong Xuebing. The lights in the north room were on. Outside the door, she could see the shadows of people walking inside, and she could also hear her uncle and aunt talking.
Luan Xiaoping opened the door, and Dong Xuebing saw Luan Xiaoping looking at Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Mum, I had brought her back. This is Xie Huilan. You all had met her before, and I don't need to introduce her."
Xie Huilan smiles and walks over. "Auntie, nice to meet you."
"Hello. Nice to meet you."
"I had gone to the mall on my way and am late." Xie Huilan replied. "Sorry to make you wait."
"It's fine." Luan Xiaoping did not even look at her son and stared at Xie Huilan the moment she opened the door. She smiled and stared at Xie Huilan for a long time.
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Mum, what are you looking at?"
Luan Xiaoping asked. "Oh, why did you buy so many things?"
"I had told her, but Xie Huilan refused to listen and insisted on buying."
"Come in and tell her that the vegetables are ready, and we can start eating soon."
In the north room, Xie Huilan's Uncle, First Aunt, and Second Aunt's family were all there. When they saw Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan entering, they stood up and looked at Xie Huilan. Dong Xuebing looked at them and passed the things in his hands to his Uncle and Aunt. The neckties and toiletries are for his relatives. After that, Dong Xuebing introduced them to Xie Huilan. This is Uncle and Second Uncle. Xie Huilan smiled and followed Dong Xuebing's greetings.
Xie Huilan's Uncle was overjoyed when he heard Mayor Xie addressing him as Uncle. He and his Aunt quickly ask Xie Huilan to sit down.
"Mayor Xie, what tea do you want?"
"Aunt, don't call me that. Just call me Xie Huilan."
"Sigh … Huilan … let me pour you a cup of tea."
At first, everyone felt awkward. After all, Xie Huilan is Yan Tai County's Mayor and is their parent. It's hard for Xie Huilan, Uncle, and Aunts to speak to her normally. But after a while, Xie Huilan did not put on any airs and smiles with everyone. The atmosphere lightens up, and First Aunts and Second Aunts start chatting with Xie Huilan warmly.
Suddenly, Tang Jin entered the office panting. "I'm off work. Is my sister-in-law here?" Tang Jin saw Xie Huilan sitting in the office and stuck out her tongue.
Second Aunt, who was sitting on the sofa, glared at her daughter. "What are you shouting for?
"Are you Xiao Jin?" Xie Huilan smiles and looks at Dong Xuebing. "I keep hearing Xiao Bing praising you. Haha … aren't you working in the County? Why didn't you call your brother? If we knew, we would have come back together. "
Tang Jin looked at her and called out boldly, "Sister-in-law."
"Yes. Haha …" Xie Huilan replied.
Tang Jin also got familiar with Xie Huilan. "Sister-in-law, are you really dating my brother? God, did the two of you get along when my brother was hospitalized? " Tang Jin got the news later and was told by her mother over the phone. When she heard that Mayor Xie had become her cousin's girlfriend, she almost fell to the ground. After she got off work, she rushed back to the village.
Xie Huilan did not reply and smiled.
Tang Jin ignored her parents who were staring at her and continued to ask. "Are you wooing my brother or my brother wooing you?"
Dong Xuebing gave Tang Jin a stare. "Go away. Stop asking!"
"I am very curious about your relationship!" Tang Jin was very curious. Xie Huilan did not hide anything and laughed.
Xie Huilan did not hide anything and laughed. "There's nothing I can't tell you. The first time I met Xiao Bing was two years ago. I was walking past Heping Street and was talking on the phone when a thief stole my wallet. Xiao Bing caught the thief from behind. That was the first time we met, and many things happened after that. Hmmm … I should be the one courting Xiao Bing. Haha …"
You wooed Xiao Bing?
Tang Jin was stunned, and even Luan Xiaoping, Uncle, and the rest looked at Dong Xuebing. Dong Xuebing blushed.
Dong Xuebing blushed. Actually, he and Xie Huilan are not chasing each other. Their relationship started at the Xie Family, and Xie Huilan suddenly asked Dong Xuebing, "Do you want to date me?" Dong Xuebing nodded, and from this angle, Xie Huilan is not wrong. She is the one who suggested this relationship.
Tang Jin was impressed and gave Dong Xuebing a thumbs up secretly.
Luan Xiaoping also felt her son is capable. Xie Huilan is the one who wooed her son. At this moment, Luan Xiaoping felt her son's relationship with Xie Huilan is reliable. Xie Huilan really wants to be her daughter-in-law. Luan Xiaoping couldn't sit still and stopped Tang Jin from asking more questions. "Xiao Jin, your brother is shy. Don't ask too much."
But before Tang Jin could ask, Luan Xiaoping held Xie Huilan's hand and asked.
"Huilan, how many people are there in your family?"
"In my family, there are three of us. Hehe, I am also an only child."
"It's good to be an only child. Oh, I heard you and Xiao Bing are getting married. Have you set the date? "
"No. We don't dare to make the decision." Xie Huilan replied politely and held Luan Xiaoping's arm. "It's up to you and the elders. Haha … I should apologize first. I had been dating Xiao Bing for a few days, and it's rude of me to visit you today."
"It's alright." Luan Xiaoping patted Xie Huilan's hand. "If Xiao Bing can marry you, I will be smiling in my dreams. Our family is not so particular."
"Oh, I had bought a necklace for you. I wonder if it suits you." Xie Huilan took out a long jewelry box from her bag.
Luan Xiaoping frowned. "What are you doing? No, no. "
"Try it on. I had spent a long time looking for this necklace, and I think it suits you." Xie Huilan opened the box, and a thick platinum necklace appeared. This necklace is worth at least 30,000 RMB, and it's inlaid with diamonds. Xie Huilan took out the sparkling gold necklace and insisted on putting it on Luan Xiaoping's neck. Luan Xiaoping tried to stop Xie Huilan, but in the end, she could only let Xie Huilan put the necklace on her neck.
Luan Xiaoping's Aunt and Eldest Aunt looked at Xie Huilan enviously.
"Huilan, then … thank you."
"Don't mention it. Haha …"
Luan Xiaoping was grinning from ear to ear. She doesn't care about the money, but she is happy that Xie Huilan is willing to help her. So, Luan Xiaoping held Xie Huilan's hand tightly and chatted with her for a while. Dong Xuebing's Uncle and Aunts also joined in the conversation.
The atmosphere was good, but Dong Xuebing was the only one left out. Dong Xuebing smoked a few cigarettes and got bored. "Mum, should we eat first? I've been tossing and turning for the whole day. My stomach is growling. "
"That's right. Stop chatting." Luan Xiaoping stood up. "I will go and cook."
Xie Huilan wanted to help Dong Xuebing. "Aunty, let me do it."
Dong Xuebing's Aunt, First Aunt, and Second Aunt do not dare to let Xie Huilan cook. They immediately stopped Luan Xiaoping and Xie Huilan, and the three of them went to the kitchen.
In the past, when Dong Xuebing was still in Beijing, Luan Xiaoping's position in the family is not high. She and Xiao Bing's Second Aunt do most of the cooking. But it is different now. Luan Xiaoping had not entered the kitchen for more than six months, and it is Dong Xuebing's Aunt and the rest who do the chores.
After dinner.
Tang Jin pestered Xie Huilan and kept calling her 'Sister-in-law'. She also asked about Dong Xuebing's relationship with her.
Dong Xuebing made use of this time to signal to his mother and dragged Luan Xiaoping to the courtyard. "Mum, how is it? Are you satisfied now?"
"You are so smug." Luan Xiaoping laughed. "Haha … I am satisfied. I am very satisfied. You are a fool."
Dong Xuebing is pissed. "Fool? Me? How am I a fool?! "
Luan Xiaoping held her son's hand and patted it. "I was worried when I heard you are friends with the Mayor. She is a high-ranking official and is much older than you. She might be one or two years older than you, but she is much older than you … I am afraid she will bully you after you two get married. But now, I am relieved. Huilan is a good girl."
Dong Xuebing rolled his eyes. "You must step on me every day, right? Who is your son? Bully me? Ask her if she dares to bully me. She always listens to me. If I tell her to go east, she will not go west. If I tell her to go north, she will not go south. "Of course, Dong Xuebing does not dare to say this in front of Xie Huilan.
Luan Xiaoping was amused. "You can brag as much as you want."
"I am serious. What are you bragging about?!" Dong Xuebing had drunk some alcohol and did not blush when lying.
"Alright, alright. I am happy today and will not argue with you." Luan Xiaoping smiled and said, "Anyway, I like this daughter-in-law very much. She's beautiful, has a good personality, and is capable. My silly son has really made me proud this time. Haha, live well in the future. Don't let such a good girl go."
Dong Xuebing snorted. "What are you saying? Even if I let her go, she will not let me go."
"You are bragging again?"
"You don't believe me? You can ask Huilan! "
The door opened suddenly, and Xie Huilan walked out. "Huh? Aunty, why are you both here? What are you asking me? "
Dong Xuebing's face changed, and he quickly laughed. "Ah … nothing. I am talking to my mother."
Luan Xiaoping laughed in her heart.
