Chapter 73: Don’t eat canned food given by wild men!
Lu Chengye learned from Mai Lao San that Mai Sui was going to join the army, so he went up to ask Mai Sui for details.
Although Mai Sui and Lu Chengye had been dating, they didn’t have any deep hatred.
Besides, Lu Chengye was Mai Xiangbei’s guest today, so Mai Sui couldn’t ignore him.
So they chatted casually for a few words.
Unexpectedly, someone got jealous.
At this moment, Lin Shuhua was cooking in the kitchen outside, Mai Lin went to the cafeteria to get food, and the others were sitting in the living room chatting.
Shen Xingchen sat between Mai Sui and Lu Chengye, acting as Mai Sui’s spokesperson, chatting with Lu Chengye enthusiastically.
No matter what Lu Chengye said, Shen Xingchen rushed to answer.
Anyway, he was not allowed to talk to Mai Sui.
Of course, they maintained basic politeness in their words, after all, there were elders around.
Mai Laosan and the others thought that Shen Xingchen didn’t know that Lu Chengye and Mai Sui had a blind date.
After all, Shen Xingchen was not present when they had a blind date.
Seeing Shen Xingchen and Lu Chengye chatting so enthusiastically, everyone thought that they hit it off right away and got along very well.
Mai Xiangbei was sincerely happy for Mai Sui, not only could she go to the army, but her marriage was also settled.
He didn’t know that Mai Sui just wanted to have fun, so she treated Shen Xingchen as her niece’s husband.
Moreover, from the other party’s words and deeds, Mai Xiangbei found that Shen Xingchen was very cultured and should be well educated.
So, he became more and more satisfied.
Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai, who knew the inside story, sighed silently, then picked up the canned fruit and showed it off wildly.
That’s right, it was the canned fruit that Shen Xingchen had just given to Lin Shuhua.
Mai Xiangbei took it out again to entertain Mai Laosan and the others.
He was also worried that Mai Lao San and his friends would have nothing to eat in the countryside, so he kept persuading them:
“Third brother, Hongcai, you guys should eat more, and don’t be restrained here with me.
Chengye, you can eat too, don’t be polite, these were all bought by Xingchen, I’m just borrowing flowers to offer to the Buddha.
Xingchen, you are really something, why do you buy anything from your uncle’s place, don’t do this next time!”
Suddenly, Mai Xiangbei remembered that there seemed to be a cigarette in the bag.
So he went into the bedroom again and turned the cigarettes out.
Then he put them into Mai Laosan’s own burlap bags.
He turned to Shen Xingchen and explained, “Xingchen, don’t get me wrong, my uncle is very satisfied with you, but I have quit smoking recently.
You can come empty-handed next time. My uncle has everything here. I am very happy that you can come.”
Mai Laosan said with a smile, “Xingchen is a polite child.
Not only did he buy it for you, but he also bought one for me, my eldest brother and my second brother.
Now I have two.”
Shen Xingchen smiled and said, “When I went to the countryside, my uncle stuffed me a bunch of tickets and accidentally put a few cigarette tickets in it.
I don’t smoke either, so I just spent them all to avoid expiration.”
The validity period of the cigarette tickets is several years, so it’s not easy to expire.
Shen Xingchen said this deliberately because he didn’t want the person who received the gift to have a psychological burden.
Mai Xiangbei naturally understood, and he felt that his niece was a good match.
When Lu Chengye heard that the canned food was bought by Shen Xingchen, he couldn’t eat it.
So he turned around and gave it to Mai Sui: “I don’t like this kind of sweet food. You female comrades should like it.”
Mai Sui really likes it. Without thinking too much, she accepted it.
Shen Xingchen: !!!
Shen Xingchen was almost mad to death because his chicken was stolen in front of him.
But because of the presence of his elders, he couldn’t get angry.
He could only keep signaling Mai Sui with his eyes, not to eat the canned food given by a wild man!
But Mai Sui didn’t pay attention to Shen Xingchen’s hint at all, and just unscrewed it and ate it.
Shen Xingchen: ..
She worked hard to prepare the meal, and suddenly saw Mai Lao San eating canned food. She felt something was wrong.
Then she quickly ran back to the bedroom and saw that the sky had fallen.
The most expensive cigarettes and canned fruits were gone, leaving only a lonely pack of peach cakes…
No, there were still a few empty cans, which could be used to store pickles after being washed.
Lin Shuhua felt very disappointed.
But Lu Chengye was still outside, so she could only hold it in for the time being.
After Mai Lao San and Lu Chengye finished their meal and left, Lin Shuhua finally couldn’t help but quarrel with her husband Mai Xiangbei.
Mai Xiangbei felt that it was just a few cans and it was really unnecessary.
“Shuhua, you know, my parents passed away early, and it was my brothers who raised me and paid for my education.
Without them, I wouldn’t be who I am today.
The conditions in the countryside are not good, and my third brother is not good at working, and he has to take care of two children alone.
Among the four of us brothers, he has the worst conditions. I felt uncomfortable seeing him, so I gave him two more cans of food.
Are you arguing with me for this?
Besides, the last two times my third brother went to the city, he didn’t ask for the money I gave him, saying that he would leave it for Linlin to buy candy.
My third brother is feeling sorry for me!
And last time, my third brother gave me half a roast goose, and you ate it too.
Have you forgotten so quickly?
Shuhua, you can’t be a conscience!”
Mai Xiangbei wanted to cry when he thought of his third brother raising Mai Sui and Hong Cai alone, and Mai Sui was still a fool.
The third brother has it so hard!
Fortunately, Mai Sui is now promising, and the third brother can be said to have finally reaped the rewards of his hardships.
It was a good day, and he was happy, but his wife quarreled with him over a few cans.
Oh… I am so tired…
From Lin Shuhua’s point of view, she could not empathize with Mai Xiangbei at all. She only knew that her husband always favored Mai Lao San.
So she shouted loudly: “Mai Xiangbei, if you are so distressed about Mai Laosan, then we should divorce. You and Mai Laosan have been there!
Besides, it’s just a few cans, and what about the cigarette?
That was the gift from Mai Sui’s partner when he first came to her house, and we will have to give it back in the future.
If you don’t smoke, you can give it to my dad and my brother!
Why should you give it to Mai Laosan!
Mai Xiangbei, after all, you only have your brothers in your heart, especially Mai Laosan, and you don’t have our old Lin family at all.”
After Lin Shuhua finished speaking, she began to pack her luggage and prepare to go back to her parents’ home.
Seeing this, Mai Xiangbei hurriedly stopped his wife: “Shuhua, what are you doing?
We are an old couple, and we don’t have to go back to our parents’ home after a quarrel.
Otherwise, I will buy a cigarette for your dad and your brother tomorrow.”
Mai Xiangbei obviously didn’t realize the crux of the problem, and Lin Shuhua naturally wouldn’t calm down.
“Get out of here, who wants the stinky cigarettes you bought!”
As a result, Mai Xiangbei did not play by the rules, hugged Lin Shuhua and rolled onto the bed…
(10,000 words omitted here)
An hour later, Lin Shuhua was finally not so angry.
Mai Xiangbei took the initiative to hand over the financial power again, and promised to hand over all his salary without leaving a penny.
Only then did Lin Shuhua completely calm down.
Seeing that his wife was in a good mood, Mai Xiangbei took the opportunity to say:
“Shuhua, it’s really not easy for third brother these years.
Moreover, as soon as he made money, he thought of buying me roast goose. Third brother…”
“Mai Xiangbei!” Lin Shuhua’s anger, which had just been extinguished, rose again.
“Don’t mention roast goose to me, how many years do you want to study to eat half of his roast goose?”
