After Xiaoqian's family had dinner and left, He Yu's mother took out the things Xiaoqian's family had sent and looked at them one by one.

In addition to a rooster, there is also a bag of rice, two pieces of pork, two cabbage and green vegetables, onions, garlic sprouts, and a bucket of oil.

These are the rules for New Year greetings here. He Yu asked her mother:"Why do they give these things?"

His mother explained to him:"On the 30th night of the rooster, it is used to worship the door god and ask for his blessing. The coming year will be safe and prosperous.

Oil, Rice represents abundant food and clothing in the coming year, and cabbage, green vegetables, onions and garlic sprouts represent a clean and smooth life for the family in the coming year."

"oh! I see!"

He thought: 'I will quickly buy a red rooster, a cabbage, green vegetables, onions and garlic seedlings, and send them to Xiaoqin's family.

He hurried to Dongmen Street and bought these things, because he was afraid that people would find out. So he didn't dare to buy it in front of his own house.

He walked into Xiaoqin's house with the chicken and vegetables in his arms:"Auntie! I'm here to wish you a happy New Year!"

Xiaoqin's mother saw it and said very happily:"You are a student and your family is poor. How can you buy these things for us with the money you have? Put it down quickly"

"Aunt! I went to work a few days ago and earned some money. In order to honor your old man, I bought a chicken to replenish Xiaoqin's health."

"Xiaoqin, listen, He Yu is already working part-time to earn money, he is very capable. He also used the money from his part-time job to buy New Year's goods for us. He is so conscientious. We, Xiaoqin, are so lucky to have found you."

"My mother is the same. He brings something and you praise him like this. How can you not be blessed? They are not the same, so let’s talk about these first."Xiaoqin squinted at his mother

"Didn’t the two families agree to it together?"His mother said

"What did you say? That's for the future, don't express your opinions casually."Xiao Qin glared at his mother."

He Yu felt that his mother's attitude was completely different from the day he sent Xiao Qin on his back.

He asked inspiredly,"Mom! That day when I came back carrying Xiaoqin, did you feel uncomfortable in any way?""

"You mean that day? No! It was Xiaoqin's sister who had a few pieces stolen when she was selling clothes. I was very angry and a little dazed.

So breakfast wasn’t cooked that day, so I didn’t leave you to eat, so don’t worry!"

‘oh! So, I thought it was Xiaoqin who said something to you. That would be great if not! I'm just relieved! Otherwise, it will drive me crazy!’

"Aunt! Thirty nights, no one kills chickens, I will kill them"

"That's great! You give me chickens, and you come to help kill them. It's really rare. Our family is currently short of a man. If you and Xiaoqin get married the next day, we will have someone to rely on."Xiaoqin's mother said happily.

After hearing this, He Yu felt happy.

"My mother is the same. How many times have I told you, if you are still studying now, what kind of family will you have? , don’t make some wishes first."Xiaoqin squinted at her mother.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's up to you what you want to think about, I just like him. There are too few people like him in the world. If you marry him, you will enjoy a lifetime of happiness."The more Xiaoqin's mother talked, the more interested she became.

"Since you like him, I don’t care if you go with him in the future!"

"What do you say? Let me live with him? You don’t want me anymore? Your wings have grown stronger, and you always talk like this to me"

"My mother is the same. How can I say that? What I mean is that we should talk about marriage slowly after graduation and starting work. Don't rush it." Xiaoqin said

"I'm not telling you to get married now. I'm telling you not to marry anyone in the future, but to marry He Yu. I'm not only interested in talent, but also in his abilities. I'm doing this for your own good.

Since your father is not here, I will take care of you by myself. I hope you find a good person and a good family, and I will feel relieved.

If I don't give you an idea and let you find one randomly in the future, if something goes wrong, mom will be furious."Xiaoqin's mother said

"Yes! I know my mother is good to me. I'm not looking down on He Yu. I'm saying that we are still students who have been working for a few years, so we can't just make a marriage decision in a hurry.

We'll see how things develop after a few years of work, and then we'll make a decision."

"Auntie, what Xiaoqin said makes sense. We will make decisions based on our development in the future.

But I made it clear in advance that I just like her and will never do it again. Even in the Year of the Ox and the Moon of the Horse, I will wait for her, stick to it and never change my mind."

It's true:

Xiaoqian's family was inspired to send New Year's goods, and

He Yu followed suit by buying gifts for Xiaoqin's family.

Knowing that there was a reason for his indifference to him,

He Yu's good intentions were not in vain.
