Reborn since 2005

Chapter 421 Sleepover
Yan Xin and his group did not stay on the embankment for long.

Mainly because of the wind above the embankment.

It's already evening, and the weather is very cold. With the cold wind blowing, no matter how thick the clothes are, it's useless.

Yan Xin pointed Ruan Siyao to his home, and told him which roads to take to get to his home.

If you know the way, you can take the path and break through those ridges.

When he and Bai Xiaoling came over, they took the path.

If you don't know the way, you may take a small road, and you may go for a detour, and you will waste time if you go around.

There are many rice fields here, and some of the lower ones still have water. Even if there is no water, there will be mud. If you are not careful, you will sink into it. You can't just break through the fields.

If you don’t know the road, you should take a straighter and wider road, which is a road that tractors can pass through, also called a machine farming road, so you can’t go wrong, but it’s more roundabout.

If you don't take the mechanical farming road, you have to go back to the road and then go around, and the distance is relatively long.

If you drive there, there is only one way, which is to bypass the road.

Although Feng Chen's car can pass through most of the tractor roads, there are still a few places where the roads are broken and there is no way to pass.

And the road condition is still very bad, there are many potholes.

It is most convenient to drive there, but Ruan Siyao wants to walk there, because the distance is not very far, so it's fine as a walk.

She also wanted to get an immersive experience of what the countryside here is like.

To feel the countryside, of course, you can feel it better by going to the fields.

Although her hometown is also in the countryside, it is the northern countryside, the Great Plains, which is completely different from the scenery here.

Yan Xin didn't have anything to say about this, it was up to them to make their own decisions, anyway they could go to his house anyway.

He just talked for a while, feeling that it was too cold in the wind, and then returned to Feng's house.

Continue to warm up in the main room.

In the kitchen, Feng's parents were busy, and an aunt was helping.

Feng Xi didn't go to the kitchen to help, but sat beside Yan Xin to warm up the fire.

On the other side of Yan Xin was Bai Xiaoling.

The seats were not like this when they went out, but they could choose where to sit again when they came back. Feng Xi and Bai Xiaoling were more resourceful and grabbed the seat next to Yan Xin before Ruan Siyao.

After sitting down, the two of them looked at each other and smiled across Yan Xin, happy that they had sniped Ruan Siyao, they almost raised two fingers and yelled.

Ruan Siyao was one step too late, so she could only sit on the edge, feeling a little depressed in her heart:
"They... don't seem to welcome me very much..."

Both Feng Chen and Ruan Mengyao couldn't help shaking their heads.

What Ruan Mengyao thought in her heart was: "Feng Xi is really interested in Yan Xin. My sister has no chance. The gap between the two is too big. I have to persuade my sister to let her retreat when she is in trouble, so as not to fall into it. Yes, bring shame on yourself."

What Feng Chen thought was: "My sister is good at everything, but her EQ is a bit low. I have told her that I want to introduce Siyao to Yan Xin. If the two of them become successful, then we will be relatives and we will not be related. Is it more stable? If there is no opportunity, you should take the initiative to create opportunities for her, why take away her opportunities? Sigh, EQ is too low!"

I thought to myself, when there is no one else, I have to talk to my sister and ask her to help create opportunities.

Now that there are so many people in the room warming up by the fire, it is too inconvenient to say.

Not long after, dinner was ready, Mother Feng came over and said, everyone got up, moved the chairs away, an Eight Immortals table was covered on top of the still burning coal stove, and served as a dining table.

Feng Xi went to the kitchen, brought another burning coal stove over, and put another Eight Immortals table.

There are quite a lot of guests, fifteen or six together, and there is no room for one table, only two tables can be placed.

Now the weather is frighteningly cold, if there is no coal stove under the table, it will be too cold, and the food will get cold easily.

Everyone also started to move the chairs around the table one by one.

Feng Xi's mother and aunt began to serve food, and Feng Xi also went to the kitchen to scoop up the rice.

Ruan Mengyao is the future daughter-in-law of this family. She has been here twice before, which is the kind of confirmed relationship, so she can't treat herself as a guest.

Here she also played the master's subjective initiative, followed to the kitchen to help serve the food, and even called her sister over.

This is where she is sensible.

Bai Xiaoling originally sat there not wanting to move, but when she saw Ruan Siyao following, she felt that she couldn't be too lazy in front of Yan Xin, so she also followed to help.

Mother Ruan also praised Yan Xin with a smile:
"Your sister is really nice, very hardworking."

After a while, the food was served and everyone sat down one by one.

Young people like Yan Xin and the others sat at the same table, and two younger elders sat down after them. On the table were a bottle of white wine, a few bottles of beer, and a bottle of oranges.

At the other table, Feng's parents and Ruan's parents were there, and the table was all white.

Except for the different drinks, those dishes are the same, in duplicate.

This dinner was quite sumptuous, and the ingredients were already top-notch in rural hospitality here, most of which were hard dishes.

As for the taste, there is nothing special about it. It can only be said that it is delicious to eat with the light of the ingredients, but there is still a lot of room for improvement.

For the rural areas here, the Feng family's preparations today are already of the highest standard.

They still attach great importance to the visit of their in-laws this time.

This is not an ordinary visit to visit relatives. This time the parents of both parties meet, and their marriage has to be finalized.

Feng Chen is already 21 years old, and he will be able to get married in one year.

Feng's parents did not treat Feng Xi very well, but they still attached great importance to this son.

Correspondingly, he also attached great importance to this daughter-in-law.

Therefore, in terms of hospitality, it can be said that we have used everything that can be used.

For this, Master Ruan has repeatedly expressed his gratitude.

The elders at the table drank a little more, at first they drank two bottles of white wine, and they drank them all in a short while.

Later, two more bottles of liquor were added.

It was a bottle of wine that cost hundreds of dollars, and Mother Feng really felt a little pain after drinking it like this.

If the in-laws drank this wine, it wouldn't hurt so much. Originally, the purpose of buying such expensive wine was to entertain the in-laws.

But the in-laws didn't drink much.

Master Ruan drank a little more, but his wife only drank two cups—the kind of small cups that can only be filled once or two.

Those who drank fiercely were the elders of the Feng family who had come to accompany them.

For these people, a bottle of wine that costs hundreds of dollars has never been drunk. Now that they have this opportunity, of course they have to drink it.

Dozens of dollars go into the stomach after a cup.

Of course, the more you drink, the more you earn.

Even if you don't usually drink much, you still drink a lot at this time.

Drink a little more today, and you will have more capital to brag to others in the future.

After today, there may not be such an opportunity in the future.

If you drink it like this, it really looks a little unbearable.

Mother Feng's flesh hurts, which is understandable.

All she can do is drink less herself, and then ask her husband to drink less.

This will reduce losses.

She has no way to persuade others not to drink, and she can only control her husband. The reason is that she can't drink too much because she can't drink too much.

Once people drink alcohol, they talk a lot, and their voices are especially loud.

After a while, the hall became as noisy as a vegetable market.

It's a good thing no one went drunk.

There are only two elders at Yan Xin's table, and none of them are very old. The rest of the young people don't drink white wine. Without that atmosphere, they didn't drink too much, and they didn't finish a bottle of white wine.

Four or five bottles of beer were dry.

Everyone can drink beer, it's just a matter of whether you like it or not.

Yan Xin also drank two glasses of beer.

Although he drinks very little, no matter how small he is, two glasses of beer can't hold him.

The atmosphere is there, everyone drinks, and he is too embarrassed not to drink.

After all, it's the New Year's Eve, and Feng Chen's marriage has to be talked about, it's a festive occasion, it's outrageous not to drink.

After a meal, Yan Xin didn't feel well and left right away. He sat there and chatted with him for more than half an hour. After seeing that the time was past eight o'clock in the evening, it was not suitable for him to stay any longer, so he got up and said goodbye. .

It was pitch black outside, and I couldn't see the way clearly.

Fortunately, Bai Xiaoling had a flashlight in her pocket. When she turned on the flashlight, she could illuminate the road 20 meters ahead. As long as she didn't walk along the fields, it would be fine.

They were only a few dozen steps away from Feng's house when they heard someone shouting from behind:
"Xiao Ling, Yan Xin, wait a minute!"

It was Feng Xi's voice.

The two stopped and shone their flashlights this way, and saw Feng Xi running towards this side.

Bai Xiaoling asked curiously: "Sister Xi, what are you doing here?"

Feng Xi ran closer, glanced at Yan Xin, and then said to Bai Xiaoling:

"There are guests at home, and there is not enough room to live. I want to give up my bed. My mother asked me to live in my uncle's house. I said that there is no spare room in their house. I said that your house has many rooms, and I told you I have a good relationship, I will borrow a night from you, and my mother will not say anything."

When she said this, she couldn't hide the smile on her face, and she looked very happy.

——Finally found an opportunity to go to Yan Xin's house openly, of course she was happy.

In the past few days, she was obviously in a village, but she couldn't meet each other. Even if she met, she couldn't do much, which made her feel quite aggrieved, and sometimes she even wanted to just announce the relationship between the two of them.

Now that we have such an excuse, we can be together, which is of course the best.

At first her mother meant to let Ruan Siyao live with her, but she refused, saying that she was used to sleeping alone, would move around at night, and slept with others for fear of kicking them.

She would rather give up the bed than sleep with someone else.

In fact, she was a little worried.

After all, she spent too much time sleeping with Yan Xin and developed some bad habits. If a monkey suddenly came to pick peaches while sleeping with Ruan Siyao, it would be embarrassing.

She also has a little status in the family now, her mother can't force her too much, so she can only let her stay at someone else's house, and then she took the opportunity to propose to stay at Yan's house for one night.

The reason given is of course not the relationship with Yan Xin, but the relationship with Bai Xiaoling.

Bai Xiaoling works in her company, and it is obviously not an excessive request to go to her place to stay for one night or a few days.

So her mother agreed.

It's going to Yan's house, not to bad people's house, not to poor people's house, there's not that much to worry about.

Bai Xiaoling was unhappy in her heart, but she didn't show it. On the contrary, she looked happy: "Is that so? That's great, we can be together again."

Feng Xi glanced at her and thought to himself: "Is it possible that the point is that I can be with you? The point should be that I can be with your brother, right?"

It's still very close to home, and she didn't say much, just followed them.

They're going to bypass the road.

It is safer to walk like this at night, so as not to accidentally fall off.

Feng Xi walked beside Bai Xiaoling at the beginning, walked more than half a mile, turned her head and looked back, she was already far away from home, there was no one coming behind, and no passers-by in front, so she made a detour to Yan Xin Next to him, took his hand and said:
"It's so cold, I didn't even come out with gloves on."

Yan Xin also came out without gloves, holding a flashlight with one hand, and holding Feng Xi's hand with the other, and said:
"It's really cold, even colder than a snowy day."

"I heard that it will snow again in two days, but I don't know if the snow will be heavy this time." Feng Xi said.

"Whatever, just wear more clothes." Yan Xin disagreed.

The two walked ahead, talking and laughing.

Bai Xiaoling walked behind alone, looked at her own hands, and thought to herself: "I'm not wearing gloves either, and I'm so cold..."

When she first came out, she was still thinking that after walking a long way, she held Yan Xin's hand with the excuse of cold hands and the excuse that she couldn't see the road and was afraid of falling, so that the two of them would have intimate contact.

She even thought that when there was trouble, she would suddenly shout that there was a ghost, so that she could throw herself into Yan Xin's arms.

But now, those ideas are meaningless.

That big demon king Feng Xi came, and generously took her brother's hand, and robbed her of the warmth that belonged to her.

Dare to be angry but dare not speak, she could only follow behind silently, getting colder and colder as she walked.

Finally, he put both hands in his pockets.

Hearing the two people walking together holding hands, talking and laughing, another thought came to my mind:
"Have they forgotten that there is another person behind?"

He wanted to cough to remind him, but felt that it was too sad to remind himself of his existence, so he held back.

Seeing the two people in front showing their affection there, while I was blowing the cold wind all by myself, I felt really sad.

It's still a long way to go around like this, and it's impossible to walk too fast at night. By the time they reached the small villa of the Yan family, it was already past nine o'clock.

They held hands several times along the way.

Because it was too cold at night, Yan Xin's hand with the flashlight was even colder. After a while, he had to change his hand, or he would freeze to death in the middle of the night.

Whenever it was time to change hands, Feng Xi would also switch to his other side and hold the other hand.

At the door of the house, I can finally put away the flashlight.

It is still the Chinese New Year period, and the two red lanterns in front of the gate of Yan's house have not been removed.

Although it is a lantern, what is placed inside is not a candle but a light bulb, which can always be lit.

Feng Xi sized it up and said, "Your house is still beautiful. I should spend hundreds of thousands to build such a small villa in my house."

"It can be bigger, otherwise there will be no place for guests to live." Yan Xin reminded her.

"Why didn't you build it bigger?" Feng Xi asked him with a smile.

Yan Xin shrugged: "When my family built a house, there were only me and my dad in the house. It was inconvenient to build a big house. Besides, there was also a money issue involved. Your family is different. Both brothers and sisters start businesses. Yes, it’s reasonable to spend hundreds of thousands more to build a large villa. Anyway, there is no limit to the area of ​​houses in our rural areas, and it’s better to build bigger.”

Feng Xi nodded: "That makes sense, then I'll spend some more money and let them build it bigger."

After finishing speaking, he laughed again: "When the time comes, you will go to my house for dinner again. If you are late, you won't have to walk such a long way home at night. You can just stay at my house."

Yan Xin: "It's a good idea."

Bai Xiaoling was already behind them, but at this moment she also came in front of them and pushed the door open.

The family knew that they would come back at night, so the door was not bolted, but closed, and opened with a push.

Bai Xiaoling turned on the lights in the main room, and with a smile on her face, she enthusiastically pointed to a room and said to Feng Xi:

"Sister Xi, this bedroom is empty, you can live here."

Feng Xi glanced at her, frowning, thinking:

"She was quite sensible before, why is she suddenly ignorant now?"

Ask Yan Xin in a low voice: "Where do you live?"

Yan Xin stretched out his finger upstairs: "Up."

Feng Xi whispered: "I want to go up there too."

The news of their return alarmed Wu Xiuhong, who lived in the master bedroom on the first floor, and pushed open the door: "Are you guys back?"

There was still a TV in the room, and the old couple hadn't slept and were watching TV.

She heard the movement and came out to take a look - what if the son and daughter came back instead of a thief?
Before he finished speaking, he saw that there was another girl in the family. He was taken aback for a moment, looked carefully, and recognized it:
"Xiaoxi, are you here too?"

"Hello, Auntie!" Feng Xi called out sweetly, and then explained, "I have guests at home, and I have no place to stay, so I'll come here and stay overnight, Auntie, do you have any objection?"

Wu Xiuhong understood, and said with a smile, "Of course I have no objection, you are welcome."

This is her daughter's boss. If she wants to come and borrow, of course she will not refuse.

Walk out of the room: "I'll make your bed."

Feng Xi shook her head quickly, and said with a smile: "Don't bother Auntie, I just live with Xiaoling. Auntie, go back to your room and rest. It's so cold, don't freeze."

After Wu Xiuhong heard what she said, she stopped insisting and retreated into the room.

She was originally lying on the bed watching TV, but now she just went out to watch the movement, she didn't wear much clothes, it was really cold after a long time.

He only told Bai Xiaoling: "Xiaoling, treat your sister Xi well."

"Got it, Mom." Bai Xiaoling replied.

They went up to the second floor.

At this time, Bai Xiaoling was still thinking: "Fortunately, she wants to sleep with me, so it's not a big deal."

On the second floor, Feng Xi smiled and asked Yan Xin in a low voice:
"Which room do you live in?"

Yan Xin pointed to the master bedroom: "This is the one."

Said and opened the door.

The lights inside were also turned on.

Feng Xi went in naturally, stood at the door, and said to the astonished Bai Xiaoling: "Xiaoling, you should rest early, see you tomorrow!"

After saying this, the door was naturally closed, and an anti-lock came.

Bai Xiaoling stood outside the door, her fists clenched.

I thought to myself: "Would you agree to sleep with me?"

It feels like the top of my head is green.

But there is no way, she is Yan Xin's serious girlfriend, and she can live with him.

And she, after all, is just a younger sister.
