Tang Xun's family has an indoor kitchen and a kitchen in the backyard.
The indoor kitchen is a liquefied gas stove, the backyard kitchen is an old wood stove.
"Lin Xiaomian." After washing the snails, Ye Mo shouted in the living room: "Lin Xiaomian..."
"What are you doing?" Lin Xiaomian replied.
"What are you doing upstairs? Come down quickly."
After a while, Lin Xiaomian and several women went downstairs: "Why are you yelling so loudly?"
"We're not very good at making these snails. Please help with it." Ye Mo said, "What are you doing upstairs? You haven't come down yet."
Ye Ran glanced at Chen Chen and quickly looked away.
Chen Chen was hiding behind Ye Mo, not daring to come out...
"You're a grown man, so don't worry about the topic between women." Wang Yue said with a smile: "Go to the kitchen and light the fire."
"I'll light the fire." Tang Xun and Chen Chen spoke almost at the same time.
The backyard of Tang Xun's house was very beautiful. They built a light steel pavilion. Grapevines were planted beside the pavilion, but now the grapevines have no leaves...
There is a swimming pool and three gardens in the backyard. Several fig trees are planted in one garden. The mango trees planted in one garden are trees dug out by the village for road construction. There is also a garden where flowers and plants are planted.
Metasequoia trees are planted around the yard. Outside the metasequoia trees is a ridge several meters high. On the ridge, there is a pomegranate orchard...
The backyard is quite large and has a cement floor.
Wang Yue and the others brought out a mahjong table: "Xiao Mian, I'm waiting for you to play mahjong."
"I can't play mahjong." Lin Xiaomian was busy in the kitchen.
"We teach you."
Ye Mo couldn't stand them anymore and said, "You guys are so embarrassed that you don't want to go to the kitchen to help, but you still want to lead my little sheep into trouble."
"What, let's play mahjong, and you have to take care of it."
"My Xiaomian is so good, but you guys are ruining it."
"Our eldest sister-in-law is the most well-behaved and the best, and she can't lead anyone bad." Zhang Xia said with a smile.
Tang Xun had already lit the firewood.
Zhang Xia looked at Chen Chen and said, "Come here and play with us."
"I can't play mahjong." Chen Chen said.
"Brother, what about you?"
"I do not know either……"
"I don't even know how to play mahjong." Wang Yue said: "As expected, birds of a feather flock together."
"Tang Xun, come out and teach your mother-in-law a lesson."
"He dares."
Ye Mo ignored them and went into the kitchen to help Lin Xiaomian: "What were you doing upstairs for so long?"
"Nothing to do." Lin Xiaomian said, "I went to the kitchen inside to stir-fry spices..."
"I look at you, you look weird."
Lin Xiaomian whispered: "We are meeting Ye Ran and Chen Chen upstairs."
"How's it going?"
"Ye Ran said Chen Chen was too familiar and couldn't do anything to him." Lin Xiaomian said with a smile.
Ye Mo had a black line on his head and glanced at Chen Chen. Chen Chen and Tang Xun were at the stove pit, lighting a fire and hunching their necks.
Chen Chen saw Ye Mo looking over, his face full of embarrassment, and turned his head.
"How to stir-fry the spices?"
"A little oil, dried chili peppers, star anise, peppercorns, cinnamon, garlic slices... saute until fragrant." Lin Xiaomian said.
"Okay." Ye Mo went over and took Chen Chen to the kitchen inside.
Chen Chen's whole body was stiff and his face was full of nervousness...
"Your grandma, are you okay?" Ye Mo asked.
"Grandma fell down and stayed in the hospital for a while. She is fine," Chen Chen said.
"I asked you to go to Beihai with me before, and then I found out that your grandma was hospitalized."
"If you ask me to go, I will go there." Chen Chen said softly.
Ye Mo smiled, gathered the ingredients, and looked at Chen Chen for a long time...
Chen Chen felt guilty and shouted softly: "Brother..."
Ye Mo said 'hmm': "When did you fall in love with Ye Ran?"
"Junior high school." Chen Chen whispered.
"What?" Ye Mo narrowed his eyes: "When?"
"Junior high school." Chen Chen's voice became even softer.
"You... are affectionate enough." Ye Mo rolled his eyes: "I've really liked my Ye Ran since I was in junior high school."
Chen Chen said "hmm" in a low voice.
"Have you ever confessed to Ye Ran?"
"No." Chen Chen shook his head: "I...I...just a few days ago, my eldest lady asked her to introduce me to a girlfriend, but I didn't agree. My mother told me...then, then I told me
Mom said, I like Sister Ye Ran." Chen Chen's neck turned red.
Ye Mo looked at him...
"I just like Sister Ye Ran, there is no other meaning. It doesn't matter whether she likes me or not..."
"Okay." Ye Mo poured oil into the pot, smiled and said, "I like you quite a bit too. It would be great if you could be my brother-in-law."
Chen Chen's legs were shaking nervously, and his heart was beating very fast.
Ye Mo had long known that Chen Chen liked Ye Ran. There was always something wrong with the way he looked at Ye Ran... and he would peek at Ye Ran from time to time.
When you like someone, you can't hide your eyes, especially for those young people who have never been in love.
Ye Ran is 24 years old, just turned up.
Chen Chen seems to be 23 next month...
They went to the same elementary school, junior high school, and high school together.
Ye Ran is one grade older than Chen Chen...
After graduating from high school, Ye Ran was admitted to college. The next year, Chen Chen was also admitted to college. It seemed that he and Ye Ran were in the same school. But that year, Chen Chen's father had a car accident...a serious car accident. In these years, Chen Chen
I have been farming at home and taking care of fruit trees...
In order to save the life of Chen Chen's father, Chen Chen's mother borrowed money everywhere. After this incident, Chen Chen became much more introverted. When he was a child, every time Ye Mo saw Chen Chen, he would smile all over his face.
Ye Mo's family was not rich back then, so he lent them more than 10,000 yuan.
That year, the relationship between Ye Mo's family and Chen Chen's family was average.
Although Chen Chen is the godson of his parents, he is not in the same production team and rarely moves around. During the Chinese New Year, Chen Chen will visit Ye Mo and his family to pay New Year greetings...
In rural areas, it is very normal to find a godfather and godmother for your children.
Ye Mo and Ye Ran have two godfathers and godmothers, but they only moved around when they were studying. In other words, like Chen Chen, they went over to pay their respects during the Chinese New Year. Normally, they didn't move around.
When Chen Chen's father was in a car accident, Ye Mo's family loaned them more than 10,000 yuan, which was very interesting.
Ye Mo started laughing thinking about this.
He always thought that Chen Chen liked Ye Ran because of what happened last year.
Last year, Ye Ran went to clear up land for Chen Chen. When they see each other every day, they inevitably have different emotions.
Unexpectedly, Chen Chen has liked Ye Ran for so long.
"Ye Ran knew you liked her for so long?" Ye Mo asked.
"I don't know." Chen Chen shook his head: "That day, my mother said that I was such an adult and forced me to go on a blind date, so I...Brother Ye Mo, I really have no other thoughts."
While chatting, Ye Mo fried the spices and said, "If you like my sister, take the initiative. But you have to be careful and don't make her unhappy, otherwise... I won't let you go."
Chen Chen shrank his neck, his face was dark and red, almost turning purple.
"I don't object to you pursuing my sister, but you have to be careful. Your family and ours live close to each other now, so don't cause any unpleasantness..." Ye Mo said.
Chen Chen really wanted to find a crack in the ground and burrow down into it, but he didn't know what to say.
Ye Mo is not good at expressing himself. What he means is that the two families are close and live close to each other... Ye Mo does not object to Chen Chen pursuing Ye Ran, but it depends on Ye Ran's own attitude.
Ye Ran, after all, is Ye Mo's biological sister, so she must be more like her biological sister.
Seeing Chen Chen's appearance, Ye Mo smiled, handed the fried ingredients to Chen Chen, and said, "It's just my observation. Ye Ran doesn't hate you, but you have known each other since you were young... I'll find some time
Ask Ye Ran alone. If Ye Ran is really not interested in you, it's probably not the case at all. Just go on a blind date as soon as possible. What a handsome young man, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to find a girlfriend."
"Brother..." Chen Chen said submissively.
"What?"
"You have no objection, I want to pursue Sister Ye Ran." Chen Chen whispered, he was afraid of being beaten by Ye Mo.
"You..."
"Brother Ye Mo." Chen Chen, who looked like a handsome young man with a black face, turned into a minor sufferer.
"Did I just tell you that I don't object to you pursuing Ye Ran. But it depends on whether Ye Ran is willing... I can't explain it to you." Ye Mo said: "It's very troublesome for neighbors to fall in love.
Yes, maybe the two families will never interact with each other."
"No." Chen Chen said, "If Sister Ye Ran doesn't like her, I won't pester her."
"Then how do you chase him?"
"I don't know." Chen Chen shrank his neck: "Sister-in-law Xiaomian is so beautiful, how did you... catch her?"
"I'm handsome." Ye Mo said angrily.
Chen Chen looked at Ye Mo, his face twitching slightly: "I'm not ugly either."
Ye Mo looked at him, okay, admit it... Chen Chen is a handsome guy, but he is too tanned.
