Movie King Dad, your daughter came to you from the countryside.

Chapter 248 Brother-in-law
Chapter 248

When he went to Yu Xiaohong's house this time, Jiang Yuchen was in a happy mood even if he knew in advance that the conditions at his girlfriend's house were rough.

At noon, I found a service area and rested briefly for half an hour. I had a video call with my parents while eating, and then set off again.

Jiangping Village is a Linshan village located on the edge of Yu Province. The road leading out of the mountain here has not yet been repaired. When the weather is bad, the road is muddy and full of potholes, leaving almost no room for people and vehicles to step on.

Fortunately, there was no rain or snow during the Spring Festival this year, and everything on the roadside was fine except potholes.

After lunch, Yu Xiaohong finished feeding the chickens and ducks at home, took her mobile phone and wallet, and prepared to go to town to wait for Jiang Yuchen.

Yu Xiaomei and Yu Xiaojian also knew that their future brother-in-law was coming in. One of the siblings cleaned the room, and the other went outside to shovel dirt and repair the yard.

The yard is made of dirt, and only bluestones are used to cover the distance from the door to the house.

In the past two days, young people in the village came to the house to pay New Year greetings to their elders, and the yard was once again trampled into potholes.

Yu Xiaomei looked through the window and saw her eldest sister getting ready to go out, and said, "Sister, come back and bring me two packs of spicy strips."

"understood."

Jiang Yuchen came by car, and Yu Xiaohong didn't borrow any transportation. At the entrance of the village, she met someone who was driving in the village and got a ride.

"Where are Xiaohong going? Back to school so early?" The son-in-law from the village was driving the car. The couple opened a steamed bun shop in the county and bought a house. Today they are visiting the mother-in-law's house.

"I will go back to school after the Lantern Festival. I will go to the county to pick up someone." Yu Xiaohong didn't say it was her boyfriend, but she was a little embarrassed.

Along the way, she chatted with her sister who was the co-pilot. After almost an hour and a half of bumpy driving, she finally arrived at the county.

Knowing that Yu Xiaohong and others were arriving soon, the couple did not delay her and said goodbye.

The winter in Yu Province is very cold, and the cold air swirls around you. Whenever it encounters a crack, it rushes into your body and wants to penetrate into your bones.

She didn't call to urge her. Jiang Yuchen must be driving at this time.

He could only stomp his feet in place and run back and forth to get rid of the cold.

From around three o'clock until it got dark, almost six o'clock, when Yu Xiaohong's cheeks were numb from the cold, several whistles sounded in her ears like sounds of nature.

Then a car stopped on the side of the road, and a man quickly ran out of the driver's seat and ran in front of Yu Xiaohong.

"Xiaohong?"

Through the streetlight, Jiang Yuchen saw his girlfriend with flushed cheeks and reached out to hold her face. The heat in his palms was quickly dissipated by the chill.

"Quick, get in the car." He dragged the person into the passenger seat and turned on the heater in the car.

Back in the car, Jiang Yuchen turned on the car lights and saw his girlfriend who was slightly wilted from the cold. She couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

"How long have you been waiting? Didn't I tell you not to come out too early?"

"It didn't take long, almost half an hour." Yu Xiaohong rubbed her hands and put them to her mouth to breathe, "Let's go, I'll show you the way."

Jiang Yuchen looked at her worriedly, "Is this okay?"

"It's okay. This is where I grew up. As a local, what can I do? It's not as cold as the capital here."

Seeing her boyfriend who was dressed extraordinarily smartly, she smiled and said, "You must be exhausted from the journey. Grandma is making delicious food at home, just waiting for you."

"Let's go." Jiang Yuchen put the gear in gear and stepped on the accelerator. Under Yu Xiaohong's guidance, the two of them drove towards the village.

After leaving the county town, there were no street lights on the road and it was dark everywhere. Fortunately, there were no pedestrians on the road at this time.

In fact, even in the county town, there are only a few street lights.When the car drove onto the dirt road, the two of them swayed left and right along the roadside in the car. When they entered the village road, the frequency of such shaking became higher.

When she was still half an hour away from home, Yu Xiaohong sent a message to her sister, asking her family to prepare meals.

Around 07:30, Jiang Yuchen parked the car in front of a mud house.

Before the two of them could get off the bus and settle down, a young man of average height came out of his house, staring at a big lightbulb in his head.

"Sister!" Yu Xiaojian came out and his eyes fell on Jiang Yuchen, "Brother-in-law?"

Jiang Yuchen's fatigue from the day disappeared at the sound of "brother-in-law".

"Haha, yes, I am your brother-in-law. Happy Chinese New Year, brother-in-law."

"..." Yu Xiaojian was slightly stunned and said hurriedly: "Happy New Year, brother-in-law."

After that, he turned back and shouted into the courtyard: "Mom, Dad, grandparents, and brother-in-law are here."

Then, there were a few rapid footsteps.

A middle-aged man came out first, followed by two old men and a middle-aged woman.

"Grandpa, grandma, uncles and aunts, Happy Chinese New Year." Jiang Yuchen greeted them cheerfully without any restraint, and then greeted Yu Xiaohong, "Xiaohong, these are the New Year gifts prepared by my parents."

When they opened the trunk and saw the stuffed New Year gifts, the four elders felt very happy.

It’s not that he is thinking about other people’s things, it’s mainly because this young man has traveled a day and brought so many new year’s goods to visit their family Xiaohong. This is because he attaches great importance to Xiaohong. For this, they are already satisfied. .

The family hurriedly brought the New Year's gift into the house, and then urged him to get on the hot kang to keep warm.

Jiang Yuchen wanted to stand still, but couldn't resist the enthusiasm of his future grandfather and father-in-law.

Grandma Yu and Mother Yu were busy in the kitchen next door, while Yu Xiaojian came over with a basin of water and a snow-white towel on his arm.

"Brother-in-law, wash your hands. We will eat later. You must be hungry."

"It's okay." Jiang Yuchen has never been "served" like this since he was a child. "Put it down. I'll go downstairs to wash up and go to the bathroom on the way."

"The house is a latrine, not a bathroom." Yu Xiaojian laughed.

There are dry toilets in the countryside, but they are kept very clean inside and are paved with bluestone slabs around them.

Although the Yu family is an earthen house with blue bricks on the floor, it is clean and tidy without any clutter.

Looking at Grandma Yu's neatly combed hair and wrinkle-free clothes, you can tell that she is an old lady who loves to be clean.

When I was washing my hands, I glanced at the east room. There was a bed inside, with quilts stacked on the head of the bed, and the sheets were spread very evenly.

"Peony..." A four-piece set with blooming flowers and wealth.

Jiang Yuchen lamented that it had been many years since he had seen a four-piece suit of this kind. In his memory, it seemed that his grandparents used it when he was very young.

When Yu Xiaojian heard this, he couldn't help laughing, "Grandma chose this. She just bought it a year ago. After washing it, she put it away and said she would use it when her brother-in-law comes."

Grandma Yu put the prepared fish on the plate, looked back at her grandson, and said with a smile, "What, doesn't it look good?"

"It's pretty." Jiang Yuchen said it sincerely. It was indeed pretty.

But if he had a choice, he would choose something plain without any patterns.
