The score just came out, so it's low.
The night before Chen Yifei was to get married, he found himself lying on the same kang with He Runqing, an educated youth who was about to return to...
After about three and a half days, I finally got off the old green train.
Even though Chen Yifei took good care of He Runqing, he still couldn't help but feel back pain at this time.
After getting off the train, all my fatigue disappeared.
Hearing the familiar accent and Shanghainese dialect, He Runqing happily said to Chen Yifei, "Nannan, we call our little darlings 'nannan.' Doesn't it sound nice?"
She happily pulled him along, and Chen Yifei, worried that they would be bumped into, carefully protected her with his hands the whole time.
"Nannan."
Chen Yifei also shouted it out.
Just as Chen Yifei thought He Runqing hadn't heard him and was about to pretend he hadn't said anything, He Runqing leaned closer and laughed, "Comrade Chen Yifei, I heard you!"
The two walked hand in hand for a while, and He Runqing said, "Look, Huanghe Road, there are the most restaurants here!"
She dragged Chen Yifei to Wangjiasha Dim Sum Shop, bought a serving of crab roe xiaolongbao, and quickly stuffed one into Chen Yifei's mouth.
"I love this the most, I haven't had it in so long."
"Then you eat too." Chen Yifei was happy to see her happy.
"And pan-fried buns, pan-fried buns are delicious too..."
"Hmm... spare ribs with rice cake, do you remember? You made this for me before. This is pretty good, I only eat the ones made by Comrade Chen Yifei."
He Runqing held Chen Yifei's hand as they walked and ate.
She loves many things, but she can't eat more than a little bit, so Chen Yifei finishes the rest.
Girls are amazing creatures; they get full after eating just a little, but they want to eat everything.
Moreover, He Runqing can hold a drink for half a day, but it's just a matter of taking a sip or two.
In any case, the remaining half bottle that He Runqing had ended up in Chen Yifei's stomach.
After navigating through the streets and alleys, Chen Yifei finally went to pick up his things when he passed the post office.
He Runqing exclaimed in surprise, "So you sent it over..."
"Um."
Chen Yifei prepared tea leaves specially purchased from Pu City. They were all the finest, meticulously crafted tea cakes, and while the quantity was limited, the tea cakes were exceptionally fragrant.
As for alcohol, I took a few bottles of Moutai and two bottles of health tea from Lai Yongxin's place.
In addition, there was cured meat, or more accurately, "ham," which was obtained from the meat processing plant in Jiangping.
This can be considered a unique feature of Wenshui County, where Chen Yifei lived.
Bring all these things with you.
In addition, there were Chinese medicinal herbs packed in cardboard boxes. I've been helping Lai Yongxin with the transit of Chinese medicinal herbs for making medicinal wine, so I'm definitely bringing some for my father-in-law and the others.
He Runqing held his hand: "Comrade Chen Yifei, how could you be so thoughtful!"
"To make a good impression on my parents..."
He Runqing said, "Just turn two corners ahead, and it'll be there quickly once you go into the alley."
"Comrade Chen Yifei, don't be nervous. You can be the same way you want me to be at your house."
Chen Yifei nodded: "Okay."
"Also, you must eat more food then, don't be shy about eating. Oh, and when my parents put fish on your plate, you must eat it."
Chen Yifei knew this: if a Shanghainese was satisfied with their son-in-law, they would be the first to offer him fish.
Depending on your level of satisfaction, look at which part of the fish.
However, he was already mentally prepared that someone like him and Qingqing probably wouldn't even be able to be served fish.
"And my dad, he hung up on you back then. Don't be fooled by his tough demeanor. He's just a man of few words, and doesn't know what to say. If he's being serious with you, it's all an act."
"Anyway, don't learn any weird methods from Wang Hu and the others in Wenshui County and use them. Just be yourself. My parents will definitely like the person I like."
Chen Yifei: "..."
He didn't follow Wang Hu's example, but he heard that Wang Hu was going to meet his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Zhang Xiao and Jiang Ping had endless experience to share with him.
In addition, Wang Zheng, who had been through similar experiences, constantly shared his expertise with Chen Yifei.
So now, to be honest, he actually feels he has a lot of theoretical knowledge.
I wasn't that scared.
When you arrive at your doorstep, you'll find a stylish little courtyard with lots of green plants climbing up the walls and flowers and shrubs growing around it.
Chen Yifei could tell at a glance that the house was not cheap.
In this era, in Shanghai, a city filled with tenement buildings, having such a house was truly a testament to the capitalists' wealth.
Overall, the family has a very strong financial foundation.
He Runqing held Chen Yifei's hand, her palms warm to the touch.
"Don't worry, if my parents look down on you, I'll run away with you. We'll elope and take the kids with us."
Chen Yifei tapped her forehead with his hand.
"You're so cute."
He Runqing chuckled (*^▽^*) like an idiot.
Although Chen Yifei was a little nervous in front of his wife, he completely relaxed once he came in. He's the kind of person who becomes stronger when faced with a strong opponent.
Upon arriving at the door, it wasn't He Runqing's parents who greeted her.
Instead, a large golden retriever pounced on him, grabbed Qingqing's hand, and nudged her away with its head.
Then the big golden retriever wagged its tail at He Runqing.
He Runqing exclaimed in disbelief: "Jianshe! You've grown so much!"
Chen Yifei: "Construction?"
Excuse me, he was reminded of Wang Jianshe...
He Runqing smiled and whispered in his ear, "So every time Wang Jianshe introduces himself as Wang Jianshe to me, I always think of our dog."
"Good job, Jianshe, good dog."
Chen Yifei squatted down and took out the half-eaten peach shortbread that He Runqing had just finished eating and gave it to it.
The golden retriever wagged its tail at him smugly.
Chen Yifei touched his head; they were family.
At this moment, the inner door opened, and it was He Runqing's mother, Wan Yi, who opened the door.
Chen Yifei smiled and said, "Hello, Mother-in-law, I am Chen Yifei."
He was wearing a trench coat over a gray sweater, both outfits Qingqing had helped him put together. He stood in front of Wan Yi.
Wan Yi was very satisfied.
This young man seems to be doing quite well!
The face that looks very similar to He Runqing has a few more wrinkles.
She exclaimed in great surprise, "This is Qingqing's husband!"
Wow, she's really good-looking.
She glanced at He Runqing and gave her daughter an approving look.
Not bad, this kid is good-looking.
He Runqing spread his hands to the side and led Chen Yifei in from outside: "Look, my mom is very satisfied with you. She likes handsome guys."
"I can see that," Chen Yifei said.
After entering, everyone in the house sat upright on the sofa.
Father He Duan, seated at the head of the table: "..."
Beside them were his cousin He Xiaojie, who was wearing glasses, and his cousin's wife Bai Li, as well as their child He Tianrun, nicknamed Little Round Ball.
He Runqing pulled Chen Yifei along and showed him to everyone in turn.
He Runqing hugged the little ball and started rubbing it: "I'm your little aunt! Little ball."
