Chapter 342 First Meeting Su Xuemei
Chapter 342 First Meeting Su Xuemei
Early the next morning, Wenxiu drove to Nangou Village.
Xiaolan's grandmother, her son and daughter-in-law had been waiting for Wenxiu at the entrance of the village.
They were followed by some enthusiastic villagers.
Everyone knew that Wenxiu was coming to the village. They were talking and laughing at the entrance of the village. The scene was very lively, as if they were waiting for the upcoming big happy event.
"Look, isn't that Wenxiu's van?" A sharp-eyed member of the public pointed at the wobbly van in the distance.
Wenxiu parked her car in the wheat field at the entrance of the village and went to the village committee surrounded by villagers.
The village secretary and village director warmly welcomed Wenxiu.
“Ms. Wenxiu, you have helped our village a lot. Our village in the mountains is extremely poor. If it weren’t for you, all of us in the village would still be struggling on the poverty line…” The village secretary grinned.
The village director continued, "You mentioned the matter of renting the sloping land. After the village cadres studied it and consulted the villagers, they decided to rent the land to you."
Ye Wenxiu smiled slightly, looked at the secretary and the director with great gratitude, and nodded to them continuously to express her thanks.
"As for the lease term! You can rent it for as long as you want. Anyway, the slope over there has become the village's cemetery now, so just give a symbolic rent, and the land will just stay idle."
The village secretary said with a smile as he pushed the contract that had been prepared long ago onto the table in front of Wenxiu.
"That won't do. We have to pay more rent. We can't let you suffer any loss. Just name a number." Wenxiu declined.
"What's wrong with that? That piece of land has been left uncultivated for decades. In my opinion, it would be a loss for you if I gave it to you for free," said a villager.
"Yes, Niu Wa is right. Miss Wenxiu has made us rich and has never let us down. We must not forget our roots!"
"Yes, I support Bai Ge Wenxiu."
……
There was a lot of noise in the village committee office, and everyone was talking to Wenxiu.
Wenxiu was deeply moved, but in the end she still couldn't convince the villagers and village cadres.
The village collective only collected a symbolic amount of money, and after both parties signed the contract, Wenxiu finally felt relieved.
At first, she was afraid that Grandma Su would send someone to stop her and make things difficult for her.
Even if Grandma Su came, it would be of no use because the villagers would not tolerate her unreasonable behavior.
At the same time, Wenxiu entrusted the construction of the ancestral hall to Xiaolan's family, and hoped to complete it within this month.
After Wenxiu arranged everything, she hurriedly left Nangou Village.
On the way back to the city, Su Haoxuan called.
He told Wenxiu that his cousin had graduated from graduate school and had already come home, and asked her to put aside all her affairs and rush back to the Su family.
After hearing this, Wenxiu felt both happy and expectant.
She often heard Haoxuan mention her cousin whom she had never met, saying that she was not only beautiful but also smart. Haoxuan often treated her as his own sister.
Wenxiu returned to the Su family, and before she even entered the door, she heard joyful laughter coming from the house.
As soon as Wenxiu entered the door, Su Haoxuan hurried over, took Wenxiu's hand and introduced her to his cousin.
"Su Xuemei is your sister-in-law who hasn't married yet..."
Wenxiu happily stretched out her hand. Su Xuemei looked at Wenxiu's hand with a smile, nodded, but did not cooperate by stretching out her hand.
Wenxiu pursed her lips awkwardly and slowly retracted her hand: "Hello, my name is Ye Wenxiu."
Su Haoxuan glared at Su Xuemei and tried to smooth things over: "After all, you two are strangers. It will be fine once you get to know each other better."
"Brother Haoxuan, look, grandma is watching over there. How dare I disobey her?" Su Xuemei nodded to Su Haoxuan.
At this time, Ye Wenxiu suddenly realized and a smile appeared on her face again.
It turned out that she had wrongly blamed her cousin Su. It was all because of the vinegar that Grandma Su had made in advance, and there was nothing she could do about it.
"Wenxiu, your cooking skills are comparable to those of top chefs. Today, cousin Haoxuan comes to our house and meets you for the first time. Show off your cooking skills."
Grandma Su came over, took Su Xuemei's hand, and talked with a smile.
Wenxiu glanced at Su Haoxuan, and Su Haoxuan looked at her helplessly and nodded.
Su Haoxuan felt a little regretful. Wasn't it obvious that he was looking for trouble by calling Wenxiu back?
He didn't understand why it was completely different from what he thought.
Wenxiu did not refuse and went straight to the kitchen.
Wenxiu only took one look at Su Xuemei today and she could tell that she was very simple, had almost never experienced the trials and tribulations of social life, and lived a completely beautiful and happy life.
When Su Xuemei saw Wenxiu go to the kitchen, she followed Wenxiu to the kitchen.
"Xuemei, where are you going?" Grandma Su asked loudly.
"I'm helping my sister."
"She doesn't need you. She can do it by herself. Come and talk to grandma. Grandma hasn't seen you for a long time."
Su Xuemei stood there and looked at Su Haoxuan, then looked at her grandmother hesitantly.
Wenxiu had already walked to the kitchen door and turned back to take a look at the situation in the living room.
She laughed and said, "Sister, I can do it by myself, very quickly. Just wait and see."
Grandma Su glared at Wenxiu's smug look.
Su Haoxuan faced his grandmother, and because of Amelia Su's face, he opened his mouth and swallowed back what he wanted to say.
Su Xuemei had already noticed that her cousin was protecting Wenxiu. She smiled embarrassedly, walked over, took Su Haoxuan's arm, and forced him to sit on the sofa next to his grandmother.
"Cousin, although Sister Wenxiu is a good person, grandma is old and this is for your own good. You should always listen to her."
"You always say nice things, but no matter how nice your words are, it's useless. His ears are calloused by my words and he won't listen." Grandma Su pursed her lips and glanced at Su Haoxuan.
At this point, Grandma Su really has no idea what to do with her grandson Haoxuan and can only take things one step at a time.
No matter what, in her heart, her opinion and attitude towards Wenxiu will not change.
Although Wenxiu felt a little resentful today, she felt really unhappy.
As she was cooking, she was thinking, did she come back today just to get mad? She got mad, the meal was ready, and Grandma Su had laughed at her enough...
When she thought of this, she couldn't help feeling sad.
Wenxiu thought about it the other way around. She couldn't afford to argue with them, and she was too lazy to do so. As long as Haoxuan treated her well, she would be satisfied.
Thinking of this, Wenxiu shook her head and chuckled.
Wenxiu quickly cooked eleven dishes and two soups.
She rubbed her hands on her apron, stuck her head out of the kitchen door, and shouted a few times toward the living room.
"Haoxuan, wipe the table and come over to serve the dishes."
"Cousin, I'll serve the dishes and you clean the table." Su Xuemei looked towards the kitchen, stood up and smiled.
"Sit down quickly and don't get your hands dirty. Let her serve herself." Grandma Su pulled Su Xuemei back to the sofa.
Su Xuemei looked at Su Haoxuan awkwardly. Su Haoxuan sighed and went to the restaurant to wipe the table.
Wenxiu carried the plates and placed them on the dining table, smiling and saying, "Sister Xuemei, wash your hands and help grandma come over to eat."
Su Xuemei blushed: "Okay, okay..."
She helped Grandma Su up and walked over.
