Chapter 1409 Breaking off the Engagement 58
Yuanchun felt sorry for him because she loved him so much.
When eating, seeing that he was too embarrassed to pick up food, she used the serving chopsticks to pick up a few pieces of braised meat and put them in his bowl, "Wen Zhong, don't just eat the food, pick up some food too. This braised meat tastes good, try it."
"Thank...thank you Sister Yuanchun."
"You're welcome. You and Yuandong are best friends, so you're also my brother. Here, this big blue crab is marinated and very tasty. Try it."
He also picked up a few large blue crabs for Guo Wenzhong.
Huo Min stared at her with sour eyes.
Yuanchun's lips curved slightly, and she picked up a few more dishes for the man beside her with her chopsticks, "Boss, you eat too. The raw pickled blue crabs are the most flavorful this time, and the spiciness is just right."
Huo Min then grinned and ate the food his wife picked for him with relish.
After dinner, Shen Yuandong and Guo Wenzhong went to work. Huo Min took Yuanchun and Taohua to the street office, moved Yuanchun's household registration into his household registration book, and also got her a grain book.
After that, Yuanchun also became a city dweller who could eat commercial grain.
Huo Min still had two days of vacation, so the couple did not stay in the county town. The three of them returned to Xiangqian Village in the afternoon.
Zhang Erniu didn't go to work today. She had just come back from the sea with a wooden bucket when she saw the three people at the entrance of the village. Seeing her daughter carrying large and small bags, Yuanchun and Huo Min also carrying a lot of things, she said distressedly, "Oh my, you guys don't know how to live. Why buy so many things? If you have that money, why don't you save it to live on."
Taohua smiled awkwardly and whispered, "Mom, don't complain. This is Yuan...my eldest sister-in-law bought it for our family. She also bought two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes."
When Zhang Erniu heard that it was the agreed betrothal gift of clothes and shoes, she shut up.
When she got home and saw Yuanchun taking out a piece of blue cloth from the basket on Huo Min's back, she became upset again, "How can you be so willing to spend money? We country people can wear anything. It's a waste to give us such good blue cloth."
Although he said this, he had a happy smile on his face.
Zhang Erniu did not take the squid weighing more than four pounds that she had originally planned to exchange for food at the brigade headquarters, and instead left Yuanchun and Huo Min to have dinner at Wang's house.
I made a big pot of seafood, a pot of spicy squid, a pot of pan-fried eel, and a pot of stir-fried vermicelli with sauerkraut. All four dishes were served in a big soup pot.
He also called Wang Jianguo, Zhang Erya and Wang Hongwei to join him.
After the meal, Yuanchun wanted to help clear the table, but Zhang Erniu stopped her, "Yuanchun girl, you are now my eldest sister-in-law from the Wang family, you can't stretch out your hands. There is no rule that the new relatives should do the work when they are eating."
Yuanchun burst out laughing, "Aunt Erniu, I am not someone else. We have been getting along like real mother and daughter for these years. What new relationship? We have been family for a long time."
"Ah, it's still Yuanchun who knows how to talk." Zhang Erya said happily, "Erniu, don't bother with those rules. If she wants to help, just let her help."
Having said that, there are many women in the Wang family, so this job was done before Yuanchun could even ask for help.
Huo Min chatted with the men of Lao Wang's family and did not leave until midnight.
The next day, Yuanchun brought Taohua a set of junior high and high school textbooks and revealed a piece of news to her: "I heard that the national policy seems to be changing, and the college entrance examination should be resumed soon. Taohua, do you want to take the college entrance examination?"
Taohua was confused, "I... I only studied in the first grade of junior high school. I don't understand high school knowledge."
