Chapter 81: Meet the in-laws
Ma Yi's hometown is in the mountainous area of central Guizhou Province, more than 1,000 kilometers away from Binhai City, he took Lu Yun and Mi Lili, carrying large bags and small bags, starting from Binhai, running all the way, after experiencing trains, buses, and tricycles, he finally arrived in front of a mountain in the afternoon of the next day, although the mountain is not very high, but there are mountains outside the mountain, endlessly, there is a winding path along the mountain in the mountain pass, almost halfway up the mountain, the path changes direction, and extends to the mountain.

Mi Lili put down the salute in her hand, put her hand on the pergola and looked at the mountain, the trees on the mountain were verdant, and the top of the mountain was the blue sky and white clouds.
"Ma Yi, don't tell me that your home is in the mountains."
"Not in the mountains, in the mountains." Ma Yi pointed to the depths of the mountain and answered truthfully.
Mi Lili was suddenly a little deflated, although Ma Yi had told her that his home was in the mountains, but everything in front of her still made her unacceptable, "There is no road here, how can we enter the mountain?"
"Isn't this the road?" Ma Yi pointed to the sheep intestine trail in front of him, "Our ancestors have stepped on this road to walk out of the mountains for generations. ”
Lu Yun shook his head and sighed: "Alas, the environment in your hometown is even more difficult than Bai Xue's hometown!" ”
Ma Yi was shy for a while, although he believed that Mi Lili and Lu Yun would not dislike him because of the difficult conditions in his hometown, but the conditions in his hometown were really embarrassing. However, as the old saying goes, the dog is not poor and the son is not ugly. So although his hometown is not satisfactory, he does not forget to praise the guests and paste gold on its face, "Although our traffic here is inconvenient and people's lives are difficult, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, the forests are dense, it is a natural oxygen bar, and there will be absolutely no haze weather!" ”
Lu Yun took care of Ma Yi's face, so she didn't want to hit him, so she smiled and didn't say anything, but Mi Lili didn't give up, she pointed to the salute on the ground and pouted, "Oh, you don't blow it anymore." If it weren't for you, I'd rather breathe the haze in the coastal area than go to this barren mountain to breathe oxygen! Also, the most important thing at the moment is that you have to think of a way to get these salutes up the mountain. ”
Ma Yi was choked by Mi Lili speechlessly, and only said after a while: "Don't worry, the mountain people have their own clever plans." So he cut a bamboo on the side of the road, pinched the head and removed the tail, and made a flat pole, and then hung all the salutes on both ends of the pole, and lifted it lightly with both hands, and the flat pole fell firmly on his shoulders.
"Let's go." He greeted the Lu Yun sisters.
Mi Lili saw Ma Yi's appearance of carrying the burden, and felt curious and funny, so she rushed to carry the burden, Ma Yi couldn't resist her, so she had to put the burden on her shoulders, but as soon as the burden was on her shoulders, she found that the burden was far less easy than she saw, she didn't have time to take a step, the burden suddenly fell down in front of her, she instinctively hurried to lift it with her hands, but the burden suddenly sank back, and drove her to stand unsteadily under her feet, "Hey, hey, what's going on?" ”
Millily screamed in fright.
"I'll do it anyway, don't flash your waist."
Ma Yi then took the burden back, put it on his shoulders, and then went up the hill along the path. He has been walking on this mountain road since he was a child, and now that his cultivation has been promoted to the sixth level of vitality, so despite the salute on his shoulder, he still walks like a fly, Lu Yun and Mi Lili are not delicate soft girls, although they don't know how to carry the burden, but walking on the mountain road empty-handed is completely stressful. A group of three, Ma Yi led the way in front, Lu Yun and Mi Lili followed closely behind, walked towards the mountain, and after walking for about half an hour, a white building appeared in front of them.
"Ma Yi, that should be your new home, right?"
Mi Lily asked, pointing to the new building.
Ma Yi glanced at the new building not far away, which stood out among the low, mud-tiled houses.
"I guess so." He replied. Then he saw his mom come out of the house, "That's my mom, she's coming to pick us up." He turned back to Lu Yun and said, Lu Yun's heart suddenly jumped wildly. Although she has spoken with Ma Yi's mother on the phone many times, after all, it is the first time she has gone to Ma Yi's house and the first time she has officially met her future mother-in-law, so even though she is a child of the rivers and lakes, she can't help but be a little shy, she is a little at a loss, and she is stunned.
"Sister Yun, what are you doing? Hurry up, walk, I'm dying of thirst, I want to get home and drink water. Mi Lili was nervous, although Ma Yi's mother was also her future mother-in-law, and she had never even spoken to her, but she was not nervous at all, anyway, Ma Yi's mother was also her own mother, what were you nervous about? That's what she thought.
Lu Yun turned his head and scolded: "Urging the wool line, urging it!" ”
"Hey, Sister Yun, why are you red?" Mi Lili didn't care about Lu Yun's scolding, anyway, she was used to Lu Yun's scolding, so she was in the mood to observe Lu Yun's face, and at a glance, she was suddenly curious. Lu Yun rubbed his face, "Climbing the mountain is so tired, of course you will be panting, of course your face will be red when you are panting, you are not the same!" ”
"Ma Yi, do I blush?" Mi Lili didn't believe it, so she asked Ma Yi.
Ma Yi turned his head and looked at Lu Yun and Mi Lili inexplicably, "A little."
He replied.
Mi Lili touched ~ touched her face, stopped talking, and it didn't take long for Ma Yi's mother to arrive, she wanted to take off the burden on Ma Yi's shoulders and pick it up by her, "You kid, don't ask your dad to pick you up with such a salute, are you tired?" Ma Yi didn't let his mother take the burden, "Mom, just like that, I'm not tired." ”
After all, Lu Yun is a child of the rivers and lakes, after a period of shyness just now, without waiting for Ma Yi's introduction, she has stepped forward generously, "Auntie, hello, I am Lu Yun." ”
Ma Yi's mother immediately smiled and took Lu Yun's hand, "Hehe, you are Lu Yun?" Girl, you're even more beautiful than you look in the photo! You are beautiful and a big boss, Ma Yi was able to meet you, which was a blessing he had accumulated in his previous life. ”
Lu Yun's face was slightly red again, she didn't have Mi Lili's sharp teeth, and she was a little nervous in her heart, so she couldn't answer Ma Yi's mother's words. Mi Lili saw that Ma Yi's mother only regarded Lu Yun as a prospective daughter-in-law, and looked Lu Yun up and down with bright eyes, but she snubbed herself, she couldn't help but be a little angry, she quietly glared at Ma Yi, and kept pouting, Ma Yi saw her frowning at herself, and immediately understood what she meant, so he hurriedly introduced her to her mother.
"Mom, her name is Mi Lili, and she is Lu Yun's good sister." Mi Lili's identity was agreed before they left, and she didn't dare to have an opinion.
Ma Yi's mother immediately stretched out a hand and took Mi Lili's hand, "Oh, girl, you are so beautiful!" How old is this year. ”
"Auntie, I'm almost eighteen." She originally wanted to be more affectionate, but when she saw that Ma Yi's mother was basically thinking about Lu Yun, and only regarded herself as her sister and Ma Yi's ordinary friend, she suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart, so she became unhappy.
After getting to know each other, Ma Yi walked home with a salute, and Ma Yi's mother accompanied the Lu Yun sisters in the back. The three of them chattered as they walked, as if they had endless words, but Mi Lili still clearly felt that Ma Yi's mother had a completely different attitude towards the two of them, she was warm and loving to Lu Yun, her daughter-in-law was unfinished, and to herself, she was polite to ordinary guests.
The sense of loss in her heart became heavier and heavier, and then she found an excuse to leave, followed closely behind Ma Yi, stretched out her hand to pull his burden, the burden suddenly lost its balance, and sank back, Ma Yi hurriedly held it with his hand, and looked back, it turned out that Mi Lili was playing ghosts, originally he wanted to tell her not to move, but as soon as he saw her poor face, and then saw the intimacy between her mother and Lu Yun, she suddenly understood the reason why Mi Lili was in a bad mood.
"Hold your breath." He carefully warned Mi Lili, who looked back at Lu Yun and the two of them, and nodded reluctantly.
Ma Yi's new house has two floors, each floor has more than 100 square meters, although the decoration is not as exquisite as the villa, but it is also quite good, the exterior wall is pasted with white tiles, the roof is red glazed tiles, white bricks, red tiles, the shadow is set between the green mountains and green waters, there is an indescribable sense of beauty ~ , very harmonious.
"Ma Yi, you don't have any roads here, how did you get these building materials such as cement and bricks?" Millily looked at the house and wondered.
Ma Yi's mother replied: "It was all the villagers who helped and picked it up one by one." ”
"Just like Ma Yi just saluted?" Lu Yun asked.
"Yes. You're from a big city, haven't you ever seen one? Ma Yi's mother looked at Lu Yun with a kind face, and Mi Lili was envious, jealous and hateful, and then helpless, because she also understood that now was not the time to play petty, hey, who made Sister Yun a sister! At this moment, she wishes she was Ah Q.
Ma Yi's mother is from the past, and the change in the expression on Mi Lili's face can't escape her eyes, but she is a traditional rural woman, she wouldn't have thought that Mi Lili was also her future daughter-in-law, she just felt that Mi Lili seemed to have a little bit of that meaning to her son.
She seemed to realize that she should not just neglect her unmarried daughter-in-law, so she hastened to share some of her enthusiasm and entertain Millily, and greet her with warmth, but Millie always felt as if something was missing between them.
Ma Yi's father also came back, followed by a group of relatives, these relatives were specially invited by him, because Ma Yi brought his future daughter-in-law home, he invited relatives to his home according to local customs, and of course, he also asked them to check for Ma Yi.
When the relatives entered the house, the men surrounded Ma Yi, and the women surrounded Lu Yun, this one praised Lu Yun for his beauty, and the other praised Lu Yun's good character...... Lu Yun was a little embarrassed to be praised, and Mi Lili sadly became a passerby again, which made her secretly hate. The next show is that Ma Yi began to give gifts to relatives, this time Mi Lili took the initiative to seize ~ the opportunity, and enthusiastically helped to send the gifts one by one, so she finally got a compliment from her relatives, although this praise came a little late, and even a little insincere, but after all, it was the beginning of her role change, as the old saying goes, a good start is half the battle, so Mi Lili is still very happy.
