The two stayed in the restaurant for a long time. Just as Cheng Xi was considering whether she should drag Xu Sanlang out for a walk, an unfamiliar yet familiar voice sounded from outside, "Xi, Xu Sanlang, are you there?"
Cheng Xi immediately got off the bed, and said while walking out, "It's brother and the others."
Xu Sanlang watched as Cheng Xi quickly put on her shoes and prepared to run out. She hurriedly put on his outer clothes and said helplessly, "It's cold outside, if you don't put on your clothes you can just run out. What do you do if you get cold?"
Cheng Xi mischievously stuck out her tongue at Xu Sanlang, obediently putting on her cotton-padded jacket, and then left the room.
At the same time, Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai also came out from the small courtyard. When they saw Cheng Xi, they smiled happily.
Cheng Chen walked over quickly, extended his hand and rubbed Cheng Xi's head, laughing, "Not bad, you've grown taller by quite a bit."
Cheng Cai then encircled Cheng Xi and said, "En, not bad, you also grew some meat, and became a bit fatter than before. Xu Sanlang, count me in …"
Cheng Cai said as he raised his head to look at the big and tall man beside Cheng Xi, and he didn't want to look up and see him. The words that came to his mouth, was forcefully swallowed back down in shock, as he stared at Xu Sanlang from head to toe, and asked uncertainly, "Are you really Xu Sanlang?"
Cheng Chen's gaze was also attracted by Cheng Cai's fuss. The two of them had initially set their gazes on their beloved little sister the moment they entered the door, but when they looked at Xu Sanlang, their faces were filled with shock and disbelief.
Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi's two brothers who were looking at him with shock on their faces, and said a little embarrassedly, "Second Brother, Fourth Brother."
At this moment, Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai finally confirmed that the man in front of them had changed. After confirming that it was Xu Sanlang, the shock on their faces slowly disappeared, and Cheng Chen said with a smile on his face, "You sure changed a lot recently. If you were outside, I wouldn't even dare to recognize you as my brother-in-law."
In his heart, Cheng Cai was somewhat jealous. He disdainfully curled his lips, "After Xi gave you such a pack of clothes, you look just like a human."
Cheng Chen's eyes warned Cheng Cai not to speak carelessly, he twitched his mouth and did not speak, but Xu Sanlang did not mind at all, with a smile on his face, he called out to the two of them, "It's very cold outside, the house is on fire, come in and sit."
Looking at the smile on Xu Sanlang's face, the two of them were shocked once again. Xu Sanlang, who usually did not speak before, and never spoke more than three words, had actually said so much in one go. The Xu Sanlang who used to not even be able to squeeze out a frown on his face before, was currently wearing a gentle smile.
Cheng Xi could not help but ask, "Why have the two of you been staring at Xu Sanlang? "Hurry up and enter the house. It's not that cold standing outside like a wooden stake."
Xu Sanlang who was being stared at awkwardly spoke out again, "Let's go in."
The two of them came back to reality and entered the house while Cheng Chen sighed and said, "It's only been half a year since we left, and the change is actually so huge, Xi, you sure are awesome."
Cheng Xi asked curiously, "What's powerful?"
Cheng Xi had basically been looking at Xu Sanlang every day. She had sensed the changes in her appearance a little, but because she had been looking at him every day, she did not feel it too obvious. As for the changes in Xu Sanlang's personality, the people she had interacted with everyday, she did not feel that it had changed much.
Only then did Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai, who had not seen Xu Sanlang for a long time, clearly feel that Xu Sanlang had changed greatly during this period of time.
Cheng Xi did not understand what Cheng Chen meant, because the person in question was present, so it was not good for Cheng Chen to be straightforward, and said: "It's okay, you guys pack up, and then we will go back and celebrate the new year."
Cheng Xi went over and told the two of them to sit on the bench next to the brazier, and said, "It's getting late, so let's go back tomorrow."
Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai frowned slightly when they heard it, then Cheng Chen said, "I haven't gone back for half a year, I don't know how father's leg injuries are, and how Aunt Wu and Xiao Qiang are, I think it's best for me to go back earlier."
Cheng Cai agreed as he nodded his head on the side. Cheng Xi sighed and replied, "After you guys left, we only returned once, and do not know how they are doing, but after hearing from Master Wang, they are doing quite well, so I wanted to return as soon as possible to look for them, but when I thought about the clan members from Xu Family, my heart jumped."
Cheng Cai frowned and asked: "Did the Xu Family Member find trouble with you again?" Then, the eyes looking at Xu Sanlang became unfriendly.
Cheng Xi looked as if she was about to cause trouble for Xu Sanlang again, and immediately said, "For the next half year, we will follow the requirements and give the wages to the Old Madam Xu, so we can be considered to be safe and sound. However, I am a person who doesn't want to see Xu Family, so I feel annoyed just by looking at them, and have never gone back to see father. I also don't want to see Xu Family either."
In order to prevent Cheng Cai from finding trouble with Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi had to hide his mischievous thoughts. In order to not let Cheng Cai find trouble with Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi had to hide from the Xu Family Member and to not go out and find trouble with him.
Cheng Cai's thoughts were simple, after hearing Cheng Xi's words, he said, "Since you don't want to go to Xu Family, then stay at home with Xu Sanlang for the New Year."
Cheng Xi looked speechlessly at Fourth Brother, who had such a simple thought plan, and replied, "Have you ever seen a married woman bring her own husband home for the New Year in her first year?"
Hearing Cheng Xi's words, Cheng Cai shut his mouth gloomily, then said: "Then let's go back tomorrow, coincidentally we have to prepare some New Year fairs to go back as well."
Knowing that the two of them were anxious to return, Cheng Xi didn't necessarily insist on returning tomorrow. In any case, if they were to return, they would have to face the Xu Family Member tomorrow anyway, but it was indeed a little late, and there probably wouldn't be any ox-carts left. This winter wasn't like summer, where they would have to travel in the pitch black night.
Since there was no one in the restaurant, the two of them decided to stay with Cheng Xi and the others in the restaurant.
The few of them stayed in the room and chatted about the matters after they separated. Afterwards, they went out to the market place, happily bought New Year's food, and went to a restaurant that wasn't closed for dinner.
did not plan to buy New Year gifts, at most he would just buy some coarse food to make up for it for a few days. On one hand, he could not let Xu Family Member know that they had reserved a private property, and on the other, even if they bought it, they would probably be scammed by Old Madam Xu when they returned.
He had to say that making Cheng Chen follow him to the Prefecture City was a wise decision, because Cheng Chen's brain was flexible and sociable, and Cheng Cai had a strong and ruthless personality, he was highly valued by Zhao Ke. Of course, the two of them would earn more than the average worker, and in half a year, they actually earned twenty silver, which was several times more than what Xu Sanlang earned.
It was precisely because he had earned so much that he was willing to go to the restaurant to treat Cheng Xi to a meal.
Although Yu Zhaocai was not in the Anyang County, his people were everywhere in there. Because from time to time, Yu Zhaocai would move closer to Cheng Xi, so the people he was holding in his hands basically knew and knew who Cheng Xi was. On the way there, he greeted the two people very politely.
Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai were both very shocked, the two of them actually managed to mix so well in Anyang County during the past half year? Looks like they should have lived quite well in the Anyang County.
The resentment they had against Xu Sanlang in their hearts had also gradually lessened by quite a bit.
The four of them happily ate a meal in the restaurant, then went to the night market for a stroll before returning to their Ruyi Restaurant. This time, Cheng Xi was not going to take the short route, but was going to take the main road back to Ruyi Restaurant.
Of course, while walking, Cheng Xi would not be able to walk on top of Xu Sanlang's back. Previously, when she was not able to walk, Xu Sanlang had to carry him a few times.
When the people around them were confused, Cheng Xi did not realize the change in their relationship. However, Cheng Chen and Cheng Cai had clearly seen the changes in their relationship, and they felt both sad and gratified in their hearts. In the end, the little sister whom they pitied and held in their hands became someone else's daughter-in-law, and they felt gratified that Xu Sanlang had not disappointed them.
