Chapter 663: Chapter 663 Visit for New Year’s Greetings 4

Shen Mianmian had never been in a relationship before, so she was a bit slow to react in that regard, and she hadn’t thought about it in that way, nor had she paid attention to Xiaocui and Dajun’s situation.

However, when Dajun was mentioned privately, Xiaocui spoke highly of him, but whether there were any romantic feelings involved, she had no idea.

"Let’s go pay a New Year’s visit! Since you don’t have many relatives, just treat Xiaocui as a sworn sister and stay in touch." Lu Siyuan, also slow on picking up on this aspect of relationships, didn’t think too much of it, and mimicking how adults would speak, he said, "Dajun, Aunt Liu is a decent person, and you’re getting up there in age. You should interact with her more, who knows, she might even find you a bride."

Those who didn’t attend school normally started families around their twenties, and for those over twenty-three, it was harder to speak of getting a bride. Lu Siyuan sincerely hoped that Dajun could also find a wife and have a lively family to celebrate the New Year with.

It pained him to see everyone enjoying the New Year with their families while Dajun was all alone.

Upon hearing this, Dajun’s expression grew even more uncomfortable as he awkwardly said, "I haven’t even built a house back home, where would I let a bride stay? I don’t want to think about that right now; I’ll work a few more years, build a house, and then think about it."

Shen Mianmian blinked, steering away from the topic of getting a bride and said, "Dajun, Aunt Liu is indeed nice, and she’s quite hospitable too. Everyone at the store is so familiar with each other, and since you know Aunt Liu, it would be good to pay her a New Year’s visit. Since it’s inconvenient for me to go, you can also wish her a Happy New Year on my behalf."

By saying this, she undoubtedly gave Dajun a better excuse to pay a New Year’s visit. If Aunt Liu found it strange that he came to her door, he could say it was Shen Mianmian who sent him.

Dajun, although a straightforward person, wasn’t foolish and understood the meaning behind Shen Mianmian’s words. He was grateful but also felt a little embarrassed.

If his limbs weren’t impaired, he might have boldly pursued Xiaocui, but under the current circumstances, setting aside whether Aunt Liu’s family would accept him, he felt he wasn’t worthy of Xiaocui.

Still, he wanted to pay a New Year’s visit.

So, following Shen Mianmian’s suggestion, he nodded, "Alright, I’ll visit Xiaocui’s family tomorrow to wish them a Happy New Year."

"Siyuan, you go with Dajun tomorrow," Grandpa Lu chimed in. With age came thoroughness in thought. Xiaocui was a good girl and had been helping them for half a year. A New Year’s visit would also be a show of gratitude.

"Alright."

Lu Siyuan shuffled food into his mouth while nodding his head.

After finishing the meal, Shen Mianmian chatted with Grandpa Lu for over half an hour before getting up to leave. The road outside was slippery, and with Grandpa Lu’s advanced age, he didn’t go out to see her off, while Dajun stayed in the house to continue chatting with Grandpa Lu.

Reluctantly, Lu Siyuan escorted Shen Mianmian to the village entrance, spotted He Nan’s car parked at the main road, and immediately felt upset, complaining,

"Grandpa really, insisting I see you off. What’s there to see off? You’re grown enough to walk by yourself, no need to be carried or held. Alright, I’m off, go take the car yourself!"

With that, he turned and left.

Shen Mianmian rolled her eyes; this guy was as moody as a menopausal woman recently, strangely temperamental.

She walked towards the car, stepping on the crunching snow, "Brother He, have you been waiting long?"

He Nan saw her frosty red cheeks, his gaze flickered, "I just got here too, get in the car! It’s cold outside."
