Chapter 79 Uncle’s Family
Grandpa's body is very strong and his smile is very kind, which makes people feel very kind.The uncle and aunt are also very enthusiastic, very simple and kind, which makes people feel very close to each other, and they are not so awkward when getting along with them.

In Bai Meixi's memory, her grandma had already passed away.The uncle's family has a total of three children, three sons and three daughters.Two of the sons are Bai Meixi's cousins, both of whom are married, and one is a cousin who has not yet married.The three daughters are all Bai Meixi's cousins ​​and are already married.

The eldest aunt is a standard housewife and does some farm work at home.The uncle often goes to the mountains to collect some medicinal materials. Anyway, he lives in the mountains and has this innate condition.

The eldest aunt warmly entertained them by making tea and pouring water. The mountain village was poor and there was nothing good to entertain them, so the only thing she could afford was this pot of hot tea.But their sincerity made Bai Meixi feel warmer.

While they were talking, the room was filled with people, and my cousin and two cousins ​​came over with their cousins ​​​​and children.Uncle Xu and aunt Xu are simple and kind, and the children they educate are also very simple, and they are also enthusiastic towards Bai Meixi and Cheng Haiyi.

Grandpa took the upper seat, and Cheng Haiyi, as a guest, was invited to the lower seat. The rest of the people moved chairs and sat at the square table nearby.

Grandpa looked at Cheng Haiyi with very satisfied eyes. He couldn't hold back the smile on his lips, looked at Cheng Haiyi and asked: "Comrade Cheng, is it okay if I call you this?"

"Grandpa, you should call me by my name!" After all, this is his future father-in-law, grandfather, so calling him that way always feels a little embarrassing.

Grandpa nodded: "Okay, what is it called...?"

"Cheng Haiyi." Cheng Haiyi reminded quickly.

"Haha! Okay, then I'll call you Hai Yi. I'm old and my memory is bad." Grandpa said awkwardly, and pointed to his head.

"No, grandpa is in good health." Cheng Haiyi sat upright on the chair. It was his first time to meet his future wife's family, and he was a little nervous.When he saw his grandfather and He Shaoying, they had two completely different emotions. He had already seen it when He Shaoying was in the hospital. As a soldier, the last thing he fears is that the other party will fight with you.But grandpa was different, he was very kind and kind, but the more he was like this, the more Cheng Haiyi really felt the feeling of meeting his parents, so he felt a little nervous.

Grandpa nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Are you a comrade of the People's Liberation Army?"

Cheng Haiyi nodded: "Yes, serving as deputy company commander in X force."

"Oh! He's still an officer!" Grandpa nodded frequently: "That's great, that's great!"

As he said that, he gave Bai Meixi a thumbs up: "My child! You are lucky! You have found a good partner."

Bai Meixi just sat in her seat and smiled shyly.She knew she had found a good partner, but would Grandpa say it out so unceremoniously?
"When are you getting married?" Grandpa asked.

"There are still seven or eight days." Cheng Haiyi responded.

"That's coming soon. When the time comes to get married, the young couple must live a good life together." Grandpa warned: "Our little girl has no other good qualities, but she is kind-hearted and responsible for the family."

Grandpa seemed to praise his granddaughter in front of Cheng Haiyi, as if to warn him, you are a good boy, but my granddaughter is also very good, you must not treat her badly.

Cheng Haiyi was also a sensible person and naturally understood the meaning of his grandfather's words, so he said firmly to his grandfather: "I will love Xiaomei all my life!" Grandpa nodded with satisfaction, and his uncle sat beside him happily. The aunt also responded with a smile: "Xiao Mei is so lucky! Look at Comrade Xiao Cheng, how decent he is."

"Yes! You will be an adult after you get married, but don't forget to walk around the house often." The uncle also looked at Bai Meixi and warned.He knew that He Shaoying, a mother, had given Bai Meixi too much unfairness. Now that Bai Meixi had finally come out on top, he was actually telling Bai Meixi not to forget her family ties no matter what.

Bai Meixi also understood what her uncle meant, but she didn't even mention her mother. She only said to her uncle, "I will often visit my grandpa and my uncle and aunt in the future."

What he meant was that he would often travel with his grandfather's family.But despite this, the uncle felt very relieved.

Cheng Haiyi also won praise from his family. As he spoke, the eldest aunt told the cousin: "Stop standing here stupidly? Go catch a chicken and kill it."

The cousin has been sitting aside listening to the chat between grandpa and Cheng Haiyi, and he is fascinated!After hearing what his mother said, he quickly got up and went out obediently. When the children on the side heard that the chicken was about to be slaughtered, they jumped up and down with excitement: "Oh! You can eat chicken! You can eat chicken!"

The family is indeed poor and has nothing to entertain. They raise chickens at home. Usually, they don't even see any chickens when eating.My niece came with her son-in-law to recognize her, so naturally I had to give her a good reception.

And Bai Meixi also deeply understands a truth. Whether a person is sincere and good enough for you does not depend on how much she gives you, but on whether she has a dollar in her hand and is willing to spend it on you. .From this simple thing, Bai Meixi could tell that the uncle's family was sincere. The family was already poor, and this could be seen in the child's behavior. Even if the family raised chickens, they usually couldn't get enough to eat. of.And when they first recognized each other, they entertained her so warmly, making tea and killing chickens.

This is sincerity.

The family began to get busy, boiling water, killing chickens, and picking vegetables.

After being so busy with work, at noon, we managed to get a table full of food.Apart from the stewed chicken, there was no other meat in the dishes on this table. The other stir-fried dishes at least included a few eggs, but to Bai Meixi, they already felt very rich.What she eats is not the food, but the sincerity of this family.

This kind of warmth is something she can't feel at home. She likes this feeling of "home" very much.

Children can't eat meat easily, and get greedy when they see delicious food. There are three children in the family, and they all want to eat, but their cousin knocks them away with chopsticks. This is the way of hospitality, when people come to the house to be guests. , and you have to eat first while staying close to the guests.

But how could Cheng Haiyi and Bai Meixi be so embarrassed to compete with the children for food?What's more, the uncle's family is in a mountain village and is so poor, so it is understandable that the children are greedy.Glancing away from the child, I saw the grandfather and elders in front of me. According to etiquette, I couldn't eat with them first!

Bai Meixi didn't hesitate, so she picked up a piece of chicken with chopsticks and put it into the bowls for the children one by one.Although he is a child from a mountain village, he is quite well-educated. Although he was happy when he saw the chicken brought by Bai Meixi, he knew to look up and ask his parents if he could eat it.

Cheng Haiyi also brought chicken to Grandpa. In the end, no one bothered Bai Meixi and Cheng Haiyi. The guests didn't even get a few bites of the chicken, and the children ate it all.

Although the meal was not too sumptuous, the food was harmonious and the atmosphere was good.Bai Meixi was at least very happy and satisfied.
