"Smoking is similar. If you can't afford good tobacco, you go to the town to buy rough and low-quality tobacco leaves, break them up when you go home, and light them in a cigarette rod."
"My family's life has been getting better and better in the past few years, and he also knows that low-quality tobacco leaves are too harmful to the body. He simply stopped buying tobacco leaves and bought Huangshan for five yuan a pack, the kind with a filter."
"One pack a day, I'm addicted to cigarettes."
I smiled and said, "One hundred yuan a pack like Tieshan's. My dad can't afford it, and my family doesn't have the conditions."
“When it comes to entertaining guests during festivals, the villagers will buy packs of cigarettes worth more than ten yuan and use them to entertain guests.”
"Just because of this, my dad will still feel distressed for a long time."
Lingxi echoed: "Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Ordinary families must live frugally."
I took out my newly bought mobile phone and called home, asking my dad to cook more dishes and clean up the house.
After all, it’s not just me who’s going back this time, but also Lingxi and the others.
I can make do with anything, that's the home I grew up in.
There is a saying that a son does not think his mother is ugly, and a dog does not think his family is poor.
No matter how dirty or messy the house is, no matter how simple the food is, I am used to it.
But Lingxi and the others are different. They are guests, guests who saved my life.
In the future, if nothing unexpected happens, Lingxi will still be the granddaughter-in-law of the old Su family.
Due to both emotions and reasons, I cannot neglect this real first encounter.
My dad thinks I speak too fast. He has a bad memory and has to take notes and write them down.
Especially those dishes that Lingxi likes to eat, let me repeat them.
I held up my phone and couldn't help laughing: "Cold kelp shreds, sweet and sour pork ribs, crucian carp tofu soup..."
After I finished a series of words, my dad solemnly said: "Is it still too late for me to go to town to buy groceries?"
I told him that we wouldn't get home until about four or five in the afternoon, and I could bring back the dishes for dinner from the city.
My dad refused, saying it was too late at that point. He now asked my uncle to take him to town on a motorcycle, and buy some snacks and fruits while buying groceries.
After hanging up the phone, Lingxi looked at me with a reproachful look on her face and said, "Why bother? We can cook by ourselves in the RV."
I explained: "We are guests at the door, so there is no reason to let the guests cook for themselves."
"Even if you have this idea, my dad and grandma won't agree."
"Besides, the situation when you go to my house this time is different from the first time you went to my house."
I whispered in a low voice: "That time you were Master Lingxi, this time it's just Lingxi."
"Oh..." Lingxi drawled, her cheeks inexplicably stained with a layer of blush.
"You, just lie down by yourself. I'll go back to the room and take a rest."
Lingxi, who was shy and uneasy due to my voice-over, stood up in a slight panic and walked straight to her small room.
I also felt short of breath while lying on the sofa, and my heart almost jumped out of my chest.
I have been with Lingxi for almost three months. This is when I plucked up the courage and revealed our destined relationship in front of her.
She is my nominal master and will also be my daughter-in-law.
To be honest, if this is just a dream, I would rather never wake up.
