At the New Year’s Eve dinner, Xu Sitong did not show up. According to her sister, she was unwell and did not want to make everyone unhappy. She was now in the lounge.

 

Su Yingru, as the host, asked a few questions, and when she revealed it, no one asked again.

 

Bai Xiaoxi felt a little frustrated, and asked Yan Xingzhi in a low voice, “Did I make her angry?”

 

Yan Xingzhi stopped smiling and said, “Probably she’s not adapting to the weather here, she will be fine when she goes home.”

 

The little fox didn’t have so many twists and turns in her mind, so she believed it and put the matter behind her.

 

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, you have to give the New Year’s Eve red packet, and everyone who is not married will have a share, except for Yan Xingzhi. Although he is unmarried, he has a high level of seniority. Basically no one can give him money.

 

 

Bai Xiaoxi also received it, Su Yingru and Yan Hongzhong gave her one, and Yan Xingzhi also gave her one.

 

She was holding two big red envelopes and her eyes were bent with a smile.

 

After that, the elders sat together to chat and watch the Spring Festival Gala, some of the young set up tables to play fight the landlord, some ran to the home theatre to watch a movie, and a few went down to a mountain party due to the invitation of their friends.

 

Bai Xiaoxi was watching the Spring Festival Gala. Although in the eyes of many people, the Spring Festival Gala is getting more and more boring and there is really nothing to see, but she has not seen it before and saw a group of people dressed up and singing lively. She felt it was quite interesting.

 

Among a group of middle-aged and elderly people, she was the only young one, and other people chatted about her.

 

The third cousin of Yan Xingzhi asked Su Yingru: “How long has Xiaoxi been with Xingzhi? Have they considered getting married?”

 

Su Yingru said: “No hurry, Xiaoxi hasn’t finished university yet. I’ll talk to them about it in a year or two.”

 

In fact, she and Yan Hongzhong are in a hurry, but who told her son to like a little girl, so she can’t let people get married first regardless of their studies.

 

“Then they can also get engaged first, and get married after graduation. The elder is not too young, it can’t be delayed any longer. Xiaoxi, don’t you think so?”

 

Bai Xiaoxi was looking attentively, when she heard her name suddenly, she turned her head a little dazedly, “Huh?”

 

She didn’t know that she was experiencing countless calamities that must be experienced during the Chinese New Year for single young men and women-from seven aunts and eight aunts urging marriage.

 

The third cousin is not bad-hearted. She herself is in her fifties. She was married early. She has a son who is the same age as Yan Xingzhi. Now her grandson is about four or five years old. Seeing her little cousin’s marriage is still in the foreseeable future, she will inevitably worry about Su Yingru. .

 

Just looking at Bai Xiaoxi’s face at a loss, who couldn’t figure out what the situation looked like, she shook her head in her heart, her face was childish, she really didn’t understand anything.

 

However, since she and Yan Xingzhi talked about dating, there are some topics that cannot be avoided. If Su Yingru can’t talk about it, she can talk about it.

 

“This third sister is asking you, have you ever thought about getting engaged to Xingzhi first and getting married after graduation?”

 

Get engaged?

 

Marry?

 

Bai Xiaoxi was a little confused.

 

Little Fox loves to learn from TV dramas, but her learning progress has not yet progressed to face the plot of elders urging marriage.

 

She doesn’t know this question.

 

She hurriedly searched for Yan Xingzhi with her eyes, trying to ask for help.

 

Yan Xingzhi was talking to his second cousin on the other side, when he received Bai Xiaoxi’s look, he nodded to his second cousin, and walked over.

 

He smiled and greeted Su Yingru with several people, took Bai Xiaoxi’s shoulder with one hand, and asked her warmly, “Is it boring, let’s go for a walk?”

 

Bai Xiaoxi hurriedly followed him.

 

“She’s tightly guarded.” The third cousin snorted, but didn’t stop them.

 

As the saying goes, for things like picking up persimmons and urging marriage, they can only come to Bai Xiaoxi, but they dare not test Yan Xingzhi.

 

She comforted Su Yingru and said, “You and my uncle don’t need to worry. I think you are so enthusiastic about Xiaoxi, and marriage will not be too far away.”

 

Before that Bai Xiaoxi had trouble because of Xu Sitong, although they did not go out to watch the fun, they also watched in the house.

 

Who could have imagined that the little girl who looks so well-behaved can be so firm and resolute about her relationship?

 

What was even more unexpected was that Xingzhi didn’t feel angry at all when she acted up, and he played a little bit, and hugged and coaxed. How long have they seen him like that? I really broke my glasses.

 

Because of this, the fourth child didn’t have the face to stay, and after eating, he took his wife and sister-in-law down the mountain.

 

On the other side, Bai Xiaoxi fled to the balcony, sticking out her tongue, feeling lingering fear, “The third sister asked me when I would marry you, which scared me to death.”

 

Yan Xingzhi felt so funny, he thought she knew what goes on when she was sitting among relatives during the New Year, isn’t she conscious of it?

 

“Don’t worry, the third sister will leave tomorrow.” He comforted.

 

“What about us?”

 

In previous years, the Yan Xingzhi would also come down the mountain on the first day of the new year. Afterwards, he would get invitations from friends gatherings, business partners, or banquets and banquets of the family friends can be arranged until the formal work.

 

“If you like, you can stay for two more days.”

 

The implication is that he can’t stay too long.

 

Bai Xiaoxi thought for a while, and said, “So many people left at once. Uncle and Auntie are definitely not used to it. I will stay on the mountain first, and if necessary, I will go down there.”

 

Xingzhi nodded.

 

Bai Xiaoxi leaned closer and asked with a smile: ” Can I accept the New Year’s money you and uncle and aunt gave me?”

 

“We gave it to you, naturally it is yours.”

 

Bai Xiaoxi gave a little cheer. Unlike the jade bracelet that Su Yingru had given before, she decided to use the lucky money this time as her year-end prize. Although she didn’t work for Yan Xingzhi for a few days, she still needed to have a sense of ceremony.
