"Sister-in-law, is it Sister Tiantian who is coming to our house today?" Ye Yao's expectant voice interrupted Su Jiao's memories that made her die.

Su Jiao turned to look at Ye Yao, who was sitting next to her and eating sweets obediently, "Yao Yao misses Sister Tiantian?"

"Yeah," Ye Yao nodded without hesitation.

Su Jiao saw that Ye Yao had finished eating the candy in her mouth, and picked up a piece of apple from the plate and gave it to her, "Sister Tiantian is busy. She will come when she is free."

Ye Yao took the apple and took a bite, then nodded in frustration.

"But my brother's good friend is coming to visit us today. Brother Meng Long, do you still remember?" Su Jiao said.

Ye Yao looked at Su Jiao doubtfully when she heard Meng Long's name, her eyes seemed to say, sister-in-law, I don't know Brother Meng Long.

Su Jiao looked at the little guy's troubled expression and then remembered that Ye Yao probably didn't remember the last time she saw Meng Long. She smiled and pinched her face, "Yao Yao will know when he comes."

Ye Yao stopped worrying and continued eating apples.

After a while, Dabao, Goudan and several other little kids came to Ye Yao to go out and play.

Su Jiao put on Ye Yao's coat, arranged her clothes, and gave each of the little guys a piece of apple.

The little guys thanked me obediently, and then went out cheering together.

Mother Su, who was preparing food in the kitchen, felt extremely distressed at the moment. She felt that Su Jiao and Ye Mingyuan were too prodigal. The young couple even wanted to entertain guests with stewed chicken, ribs, and white rice at noon.

Nowadays, it is very respectable for a family to entertain guests with a little meat and fish. Such big fish and meat are a bit too expensive.

But Mother Su thought that Su Jiao had said that Meng Long had helped Ye Mingyuan a lot since Ye Mingyuan was studying in the county town until now. It was natural for people to treat them well when they came to the house as guests, so she gritted her teeth and said nothing, thinking that the young couple knew what they were doing. That’s it.

Ye Mingyuan packed up the vegetables and dishes, then went out with a bucket and a dustpan. He was going to catch fish in the river and add a sauce to stew the fish at noon.

There are also dried fish at home, but Ye Mingyuan thinks that fresh fish is the most delicious.

A dustpan is a very good tool for catching fish in rural areas. Find a place along the river where there are more fish, place the dustpan downstream of the river, put a stone in the dustpan to hold it down, and then use a wooden stick to muddy the water. Start from the upstream and quickly drive the fish downstream, rush to the dustpan, and quickly lift the dustpan.

If you repeat this several times, you will eventually be able to catch some fish, and if you are lucky, you will also catch a big fish.

The river water was already very cold now, and the river water in the morning was even more bitingly cold. Ye Mingyuan came down several times and his calves were numb from the cold.

Fortunately, the harvest was also gratifying. There was a small half bucket of miscellaneous fish and a grass carp about two pounds.

Su Jiao was really bored on the kang at home. When she got off the kang for a walk, she found that Ye Mingyuan was missing. When she asked Su's mother, she found out that Ye Mingyuan had gone out fishing with a bucket and dustpan.

Su Jiao suddenly felt angry thinking about how Ye Mingyuan insisted on going into the water to catch fish regardless of his body when the river was so cold early in the morning.

Just when Su Jiao was about to go out to look for it, Ye Mingyuan came back with a half bucket of fish and a grin on his face.

Seeing Ye Mingyuan's uncomfortable look, Su Jiao couldn't care less about being angry and quickly pulled Ye Mingyuan back to the west room.

Su Jiao asked Ye Mingyuan to change his wet pants, and then asked him to sit on the kang to warm up.

After cooking in the morning, more firewood was added to the stove, which made the entire kang warm. Su Jiao began to massage Ye Mingyuan's calves again to promote blood circulation.

"Daughter-in-law, my legs are freezing. Don't freeze you. I'll do it myself." Ye Mingyuan said as he pulled his legs back.

Su Jiao didn't say anything. She pulled Ye Mingyuan's calf with a cold face and continued to massage him.

"Daughter-in-law, you are so kind to me." When Ye Mingyuan saw that Su Jiao's expression was wrong, he did not dare to move any more and immediately said with a playful smile.

"Stop smiling with me, don't you know how cold the water in the river is in the morning? There are so many dried fish at home, why do you have to freeze yourself like this just to catch some live fish?" Su Jiao rolled her eyes at Ye Mingyuan.

Some time ago, Ye Mingyuan would go to the river to wash clothes every day when it was warmer at noon. Every time after washing the clothes, he would continue to touch fish there and dry them to be eaten in the late winter, so now there are a lot of them at home. Dried salted fish.

"Didn't I think that fresh fish would taste better? I didn't expect it to be so cold. I promise, it won't happen again in the future." Ye Mingyuan, who knew the current situation, immediately surrendered.

Su Jiao felt that Ye Mingyuan's calves and feet began to warm up, and her expression softened, and she snorted, "Next time, let's see if I ignore you."

"I don't dare anymore," Ye Mingyuan said with a silly smile and shook his head.

Su Jiao waited until Ye Mingyuan was completely warm before letting Ye Mingyuan go to the kitchen to clean the fish.

After all the fish and meat at home were ready, Su Mu started cooking. Spare ribs and chicken were time-consuming dishes, so they had to be cooked in advance so that the meal could be served quickly when the guests arrived.

While Su's mother was cooking, Ye Mingyuan helped light the fire in the kitchen.

Su Jiao was the only one who was bored on the kang. She even started to read Ye Yao's little book out of boredom.

Half the morning passed like this, and Su Jiao suddenly heard a faint sound coming from the courtyard door. Su Jiao immediately sat up and looked out the window.

Now the temperature in the morning and evening is almost four to five degrees. Ye Mingyuan is afraid that Su Jiao will catch the cold. The windows at home have been sealed with plastic sheets by Ye Mingyuan two days ago. Su Jiao can only vaguely see someone pushing a bicycle and pushing open the courtyard door. Then Ye Mingyuan greeted him out of the kitchen.

Su Jiao immediately realized that Meng Long was here, and immediately got off the kang and went out to greet him, without even bothering to put on her coat.

In the kitchen, Zheng Su's mother was cooking with her back to Su Jiao. She didn't see Su Jiao slipping out without her coat.

"Yuanzi, what delicious food is this at home? I can smell the aroma." Meng Long parked his bicycle and gave Ye Mingyuan a bear hug as he came out.

"Isn't that why you are here? I want to entertain you with delicious food and drinks." Ye Mingyuan smiled and patted Meng Long on the shoulder.

"Don't come here..." Meng Long was about to continue teasing Ye Mingyuan when he saw Su Jiao pushing open the door and coming out. He punched Ye Mingyuan with a smile and then pointed at Su Jiao and said with a smile, "Yuanzi, this is sister-in-law. Bar."

Ye Mingyuan followed Meng Long's gaze and turned around to see that Su Jiao had come out without a coat. He didn't bother to reply to Meng Long's words. He turned around and supported Su Jiao and walked into the house, "Why did you come out without a coat?" Oh, it’s so cold outside, go back to the house quickly.”

"Hey, I haven't said hello yet. Besides, let the guests come in." Su Jiao was led into the house by Ye Mingyuan before she could say anything, and she quickly said.

"Don't worry about him, he came in by himself. If you have anything to say, we can go back to the house later." Ye Mingyuan finished speaking to Su Jiao, then turned to Meng Long and shouted: "Longzi, come in by yourself."

When Su Jiao heard Ye Mingyuan call Meng Longlongzi, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Meng Long in the yard raised his hands and was stunned for a moment. After he realized what he was doing, he muttered in a low voice that Ye Mingyuan valued sex over friends. He silently took off the bag from the back seat of his bicycle and followed him into the house.
