Love lasts a lifetime

Xiaoqin's mother was busy cooking, so He Yu spread the fresh pine feathers he bought on the floor of his main room.

There is a custom here that during the Chinese New Year, fresh pine feathers are spread on the ground, vegetables and rice are placed on the pine feathers, and the whole family sits around the pine feathers to eat. In this way, there is a New Year atmosphere.

Xiaoqin's sister brought the dishes one after another and laid them out.

He Yu lifted a stool and placed it on Songmao, then helped Xiaoqin sit on the stool.

It’s time to have New Year’s dinner.

He Yu lit two long incense sticks and placed them on both sides of the door of his house.

Xiaoqin's mother lit three sticks of incense, kowtowed three times, and then placed them on the altar table at his house.

At this time, it was just getting dark, and He Yu and Xiaoqin’s mother and sister were sitting around Song Mao and started to eat the New Year’s dinner.

"In previous years, our New Year's Eve dinner was deserted and casual. This year, with Xiaoyu here, it was very lively and had a New Year's atmosphere."Xiaoqin's mother said with a smile.

"yes! The atmosphere is really different, it really feels like a Chinese New Year.

After I get married next year, I won't be able to go back to my parents' home to celebrate the New Year. I can only go back on the third day of the first lunar month.

It would be terrible if Xiaoyu didn't come! Only Xiaoqin and my mother lived together."Xiaoqin's sister said

"If that's the case, what other cutscenes are there? The two of them could only hold the bowl and shed tears."Xiaoqin's mother said.

Xiaoqin didn't say a word and was silent.

"Aunt! Don't worry, old man. When the time comes, if you still think highly of me, I will definitely come and spend time with you, and I won't let you be as miserable as you said."He Yu said

"How come I look down on you? I wish you could come and stay with us every year."Xiaoqin's mother said

"but? That's okay……"He Yu said while looking at Xiaoqin.

Xiaoqin's mother heard what He Yu said and knew what he was going to say, so she said,"I know you are worried that Xiaoqin won't be welcomed? Do you want her to express her position? Say, Xiaoqin! Do you like He Yu coming?""

"My mother is the same. He comes whenever he wants. Why not welcome him? but?……."Xiaoqin is also talking half of the words

"But what? Why are you so vague and hesitant?"Xiaoqin's mother said

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Since He Yu agreed to come, let's eat quickly. He

Yu scooped up a bowl of rice, picked up some vegetables, handed it to Xiaoqin and said,"Eat it!" My foot is injured this year, and next year I can sit on the pine feathers with us and eat together.

Xiaoqin took the bowl and said,"Thank you!" You are really tired! Let’s talk about next year next year."

Everyone talked happily while eating, how harmonious and natural it was.

He Yu finished the meal quickly, got up and said:"Aunt, sister, Xiaoqin, please take your time to invite me. I'm going home, so as not to have any trouble at home. hanging on me"

"All right! As long as you go, your father and mother will be happy to know that you are celebrating the New Year with us. By the way, I wish you and your whole family a happy New Year!"Xiaoqin's sister stood up and sent He Yu out.

He Yu didn't tell his family because he went to Xiaoqin's house.

He thought he would come soon, but as soon as he arrived, he ate the New Year dinner at her house. Then he turned back. As soon as he walked in, he saw everyone in his family sitting, waiting for him to come back and have New Year's dinner together.

"where you go? He left without saying hello. The whole family is waiting for you to have the New Year dinner, and the rice and vegetables are cold."His father said a little angry

"I go……，"

"Did you go to Xiaoqin's house? Why haven't you come back until now?"His father asked again

"yes! Originally, I went to his house to say hello and would come back, but there were no men in his house, and no one killed the chickens. I helped them kill the chickens and prepared to go home, but his mother and her sister were not allowed to leave, leaving me alone. Have New Year dinner at their house. I had no choice but to eat a bowl with them and then came back quickly. He Yu was busy explaining, and his father said:"It would be better for you to go less often to this family in the future, especially that Xiaoqin, who is a heartless and unfaithful girl." We helped her family so much in the past, but you risked your life to save her, and her foot was injured when she fell, and you carried her back from Jiulong Temple in heavy snow.

But when her mother said she was willing to marry us, she just said humbly that she would consider it later. This does not mean he looks down on our family and despises our family for being poor.

What would you do with such a girl? He looks like a cold-blooded animal.

That Zhao Qianqian was beautiful, and she even came to visit us. She also asked her brother to bring so many New Year gifts to our family, so they didn't dislike our family being poor. Such a girl can be found even with a lantern and a torch, and she will be filial to us in the next day. Ten times better than Li Yuqin"

"Your father is right, if someone looks down on you, why should you try to curry favor with her? Zhao Qianqian fell in love with you, but you treated her coldly."He Yu's mother said

"My father and mother also worry too much. Who does my brother like? It's his business. But that’s it! This sister Xiaoqian is really diligent and quick. Yesterday she was busy helping us cook."He Yu's eldest sister said

"yes! The whole family is interested in Xiaoqian, so don't be half-hearted. You must get along well with her and don't let down their good intentions."His father reminded him.

It was really like being a one-time son-in-law and living at his mother-in-law's house.

But his parents were very opposed to it, but He Yu remained silent.
