The happy little days of the Ye family

Today is the day when Yang Yufang returns home. Mrs. Li packed a large basket of homecoming gifts for her daughter-in-law, and the young couple happily went to Yang's house early in the morning.

With Li Feng missing from the family and the Chinese New Year coming soon, Yang did not let Li Orion and the remaining two children go into the mountains.

In the morning, Li Orion took Li Guo'er and Li He to hunt in the nearby hills. The three of them came back with a half-grown wild boar, several hares and pheasants.

The wild boar is not big, weighing only about 150 kilograms at full weight, but it is just right to kill the old pig.

Li Orion sent a big pig leg to his eldest daughter Li Xiang'er. Yang kept one-third of the remaining pork for the New Year and made the rest into bacon.

When Ye Xilin came over, Li Guoer and Yang were marinating bacon.

Li Orion and Li He couldn't sit still, so they took a group of half-year-old children in the village to hunt on the nearby hills.

At this time, the Li family was quiet. Before Ye Xilin came in, Laifu and Laicai rushed out, grinning at him and yelling.

Laifu and Laicai were hounds that were more ferocious than Rhubarb and Xiaohuang. Not to mention the donkey in front, even Ye Xilin on the donkey cart did not dare to act rashly.

Laifu and Laicai stared at Ye Xilin fiercely. He did not dare to get off the donkey cart, so he could only shout loudly at the door:

"Aunt Yang, Guo'er, is anyone home?"

Yang and Li Guoer were in the backyard, and Laifu and Laicai were making too much noise, covering up Ye Xilin's voice.

Mother and daughter didn't hear Ye Xilin's voice, but they heard Laifu and Laicai yelling non-stop, so Li Guoer went out to see what was going on.

When Li Guoer came to the door, she saw the donkey trembling with fear and Ye Xilin who was too scared to get off the donkey cart behind. He quickly called Laifu and Laicai back.

"Lai Fu, Lai Cai, come back soon."

The last few times Ye Xilin came over, Laifu and Laicai had gone hunting with the Li family and his son, or they had gone out to play with Li He, and they rarely met head-on.

The Li family's hounds go hunting in the mountains every day. They are much more ferocious than the sweet potatoes and snowballs raised at home. Ye Xilin is still a little scared.

Ye Xilin followed Li Guoer and wanted to lead the donkey cart into the Li house, but Laifu and Laicai were too fierce. The donkey kept trembling and shivering, unwilling to go into the Li house.

After seeing this, Ye Xilin tied the donkey to the tree at the door, away from the Li family's hounds. The donkey's legs were no longer weak, and it ate the tender grass under the tree in high spirits.

Ye Xilin saw that there were still some grass around that was not dry, and he was not afraid of starving it, so he left it alone and went in with Li Guoer.

As soon as the two entered the yard, they happened to see Yang coming out of the backyard.

Yang is now the mother-in-law looking after her son-in-law, and the more she looks at him, the more satisfied she becomes. Seeing Ye Xilin coming, he immediately came forward cheerfully. "Why are Xilin here? It's almost Chinese New Year. Is your family busy now?"

Ye Xilin replied obediently: "My father and my eldest brother are busy at the end of the year when they are doing business. I am doing better raising pigs at home."

"The New Year pig was killed at home this morning. I brought some for you, aunt, and some bean sprouts that were grown at home. There are less vegetables in winter, so it's good to change the taste."

Ye Xilin handed Yang a basket full of meat and a basket full of bean sprouts.

Yang happily accepted the filial piety from her future son-in-law, and asked Li Guoer to take Ye Xilin to the house quickly, and then took the things to the kitchen to put them away.

There was honey collected in the mountains a few days ago at home, and Li Guoer made a cup of honey water for Ye Xilin.

Worried that it wasn't sweet enough, Li Guo'er specially put two tablespoons of honey in it.

Ye Xilin took the honey water and stopped as soon as he took a sip, with a strange look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Ye Xilin's face looking a little strange, Li Guoer looked at him with concern.

"No, it's nothing." Ye Xilin drank the sweet honey water without changing his expression.

"The honey water soaked in Guo'er is very sweet." Ye Xilin looked at his sweetheart with a smile.

Li Guoer felt sweet in her heart, "Smooth talk."

When Mrs. Yang came to the hall, she saw Ye Xilin's eyes kept looking at Li Guoer, and her daughter was sitting obediently, looking shy.

Yang looked at her daughter with a smile, "Guo'er, take Xilin out for a walk. There isn't much meat left. I can just get it myself."

The two of them had almost finished processing the meat just now. Seeing that Yang didn't need her help, Li Guoer took Ye Xilin out to play openly.

Although people in the village did not dare to speak ill of Li Guoer, they would inevitably be teased when they walked together.

Li Guoer didn't want to be looked at as a monkey, so she took Ye Xilin to a hillside not far from Li's house. Except for people from their own family, few other people came here.

The hillside was very quiet, and there were only two of them in this place. Ye Xilin became a little nervous when he came over.

"Is the new sister-in-law easy to get along with?" Ye Xilin asked in a low voice, following Guo'er.

Li Guoer turned around and said with a hearty smile: "My sister-in-law is only one year older than me. We often played together when we were children, and we have a good relationship. My sister-in-law has a good temper, and she is not a jealous person."

"That's good."

"Idiot, I can still be bullied in my own home." Li Guoer stopped and looked at Ye Xilin with a smile.

After the appointment, the two of them basically settled down. Ye Xilin looked at Li Guoer's bright smiling face and couldn't move his eyes away.

Seeing that Li Guoer didn't have any jewelry on her head, Ye Xilin quickly took out the newly made wooden hairpin.

"Isn't the previous hairpin broken? I made a new one for Guo'er. See if you like it."

Li Guoer took the hairpin and saw that the wooden hairpin was polished very smooth and had several beautiful flowers carved on it. It was much prettier than the previous hairpin.

"If you like it, please help me put it on." Li Guoer put the hairpin back into Ye Xilin's hand, lowered her head, and asked him to put it on her quickly.

Ye Xilin gently inserted the hairpin into her small bun, "It looks good. Guo'er looks good, and she looks good in anything she wears."

Because they were helping Li Guoer put on her hairpin, the two of them were relatively close. Li Guoer was a little shy for a moment and didn't dare to look at Ye Xilin.

Ye Xilin looked down at his sweetheart's shy look and was stunned for a moment.

Li Guoer was still a little shy at first, but when everyone in front of her was stunned, she chuckled. Xu took his hand and the two sat down side by side.

Li Guoer originally just gently held Ye Xilin's two fingers. After the two came down, Ye Xilin's big hand directly grabbed the soft little hand and held it tightly.

After holding his sweetheart's hand, Ye Xilin felt that his heartbeat was extremely fast. He did not dare to look at Li Guoer and lowered his head nervously.

Li Guoer was also a little shy. She felt that Ye Xilin's hand was so hot, and he was holding it tighter and tighter, which made her hand hurt.

Li Guoer was a little confused. Should I remind him? Will it ruin the atmosphere a bit? But my hand hurts a little.

Ye Xilin was very nervous at this time. He had no idea that he had hurt someone, so he quietly moved closer to Li Guoer.
