Chapter 460 He's Coming

"She is just that kind of person. You don't have to bother with her." Su Jiaojiao understood Cheng Yu's situation very well: the difficult mother-in-law, the nosy elder sister-in-law, and the indifferent father-in-law.

Fortunately, Chen Jiang is a sensible person, so she is not left alone.

Cheng Yu was dressed brightly and beautifully and wore light makeup. Su Jiaojiao felt that she was living a good life.

But then again, everyone has a few worries.

"That's what I said, but I still get angry when I hear it." Cheng Yu leaned on the sofa like Su Jiaojiao, and sighed, "Only your uncle and our second sister are good. They don't say much and treat me well. Otherwise, I really would have stopped associating with their family."

When Chen Ju returned to her parents' home, she just worked and didn't talk much.

I never made things difficult for her.

Chen Mei and Chen Ju are both her elder sisters-in-law. One is aggressive and the other is taciturn. They are both raised by the same mother, but the difference between them is huge.

"It's New Year's Day, we can't say we won't be in touch." Chen Guilan came out to pour hot water and happened to hear Cheng Yu's words. She immediately said, "We are all family. We can slowly get used to each other's tempers."

"Aunt, I was just complaining to Jiao Jiao." Cheng Yu sat up straight and took a sip of tea. "You don't have to work hard, just eat something."

"It's New Year's Day, how can we just eat anything?" Chen Guilan walked into the kitchen carrying hot water.

"How's the restaurant business?" Su Jiaojiao changed the subject. As soon as she came back, she fell into the vortex of these family gossips, and she really had no way to escape.

"It's fine." Cheng Yu glanced at the kitchen. "Your brother is the chef, and I'm the front desk clerk and waiter. When it's not busy, it's just the two of us. When it's busy, we'll ask your aunt to come over and help. She doesn't have much to do at home anyway."

"That's good." In fact, this kind of husband-and-wife shop is quite good. There are no outsiders and there is no need to worry about the accounts. The only disadvantage is that it cannot develop on a large scale.

The rumbling range hood in the kitchen stopped, and Chen Jiang, smelling of chopped green onions, came out and sat down next to Cheng Yu. "What are you talking about?"

"We're talking about the restaurant." Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "Sister-in-law said your business is doing well."

"It's okay, just a bit hard." Chen Jiang chuckled.

"There's no such thing as a job that's not hard." In front of Chen Jiang, Cheng Yu didn't talk about their family affairs, and asked Su Jiaojiao, "By the way, what does your partner do for a living?"

"He works in real estate," Su Jiaojiao replied. Chen Jiang understood real estate to mean construction work. "It's a tough job, but the pay is high. The guy downstairs is also in the business. He's Chen Xiaohong's husband. He works on the construction site every day, in the wind and rain."

"That's right." Su Jiaojiao nodded. Cai Ting said that Chen Xiaohong was taking care of the child in her hometown and said that she would not move back until the child went to kindergarten.

"When your partner comes, you must come to our house for dinner so we can get to know each other." Cheng Yu repeatedly urged, "Don't be shy, we are all family."

"Okay." Su Jiaojiao agreed.

After dinner, the couple drank tea until around three in the afternoon before leaving. Su Jiaojiao couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep. She came back for vacation!

The next day, Chen Guilan was busy drying the bedding and preparing toiletries for Lu Jingyou. She also told Su Jiaojiao in advance: "When he comes, he can stay in your room and you can sleep with me. That empty room has been unoccupied for a long time and I haven't had time to clean it yet."

"Okay, that's it!" Su Jiaojiao certainly had no objection. It was fine for him to live in her room. Her room had good lighting and he could just change the bedding and live there.

Lu Jingyou's flight was at 5pm, and he arrived at Qingyuan Airport at 7:05pm. Then he took the airport bus to CITS, which took more than two hours.

Su Jiaojiao went to the China Travel Service to pick him up before nine o'clock. The China Travel Service was open during the Spring Festival. The hall was brightly lit and people were coming in and out from time to time.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the airport bus slowly drove into the CITS compound. Su Jiaojiao immediately turned on the headlights, got off the bus, and walked to the door of the bus to wait for him.

The passengers on the bus got off one after another, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Su Jiaojiao was a little anxious. She took out her phone from her bag and called him. Before she could find his number, she was hugged from behind: "I came down first, and you didn't even see me."

"What time is it? You're still joking with me like this?" Su Jiaojiao was angry and amused. "You saw me, and you didn't say anything?"

"I want to see what will happen if you can't see me..." Lu Jingyou listened to the advice and wore a thick down jacket, a hat and a towel. It was so dark and he was wrapped tightly. No wonder she didn't see him.

"The car is over there." Su Jiaojiao went to take the luggage from his hand. Lu Jingyou hugged her tightly and kissed her. "No need, I can carry it myself."

After putting their luggage away, the two of them got into the car affectionately.

Su Jiaojiao was amused by his outfit. It was the first time she saw him wearing a hat. The black knitted hat pressed on his head, making him look like a different person.

"What? Doesn't it look good?" Lu Jingyou took off his hat. He heard that it was cold in the village, so he found a hat to wear. After getting off the car, he felt that it was not that exaggerated.

"It looks great. Put it on quickly and take it off when you get home." Su Jiaojiao started the car and drove away from the Guolv compound. When passing the snack street, Lu Jingyou turned his head and looked out the window. "This street hasn't changed much."

"I've been staying at home since I came back and haven't been here yet!" Su Jiaojiao glanced at the snack street. It was still the same, with dim street lights and shops scattered on both sides of the street. They were all closed for holiday, and the whole street was quiet and very quiet.

The snack street carries many memories for her.

"When we're free, let's come over for a stroll." Lu Jingyou sat in the passenger seat, looking at the familiar scenery around him, feeling relaxed. "Actually, I also feel like I'm back home."

For her, he worked here for three years.

Jiao County is also a city that he cannot let go of, and it is also his second hometown.

Chen Guilan had already prepared dinner and was waiting for them at home. When Lu Jingyou entered the house, he immediately called out to his auntie, "Happy New Year!" Chen Guilan quickly reached out to take his suitcase and said, "Happy New Year! You're finally back."

Su Jiaojiao took him into her room, took his down jacket and hung it on the coat rack: "You will live in this room. I'll clear out two compartments in the closet. You can put whatever you want in there."

"What about you?" Lu Jingyou asked her in a low voice.

"I live in the same room with my mother." Su Jiaojiao understood and said coquettishly, "Come out for dinner."

Lu Jingyou stared at the large bowl of golden, oily scrambled eggs and fell into deep thought. After a while, he said, "Auntie, I can't eat so much."

"Mom, you fried a few eggs!" Su Jiaojiao also smiled and went to the kitchen to get a bowl. "If you can't finish it, eat half of it."

"Not much, just six eggs." Chen Guilan also felt that it was a bit too much, but that was the custom, so she had to fry them. "If you can't finish it, then don't eat it. Anyway, that's the custom. Tomorrow when we go to your second uncle's house, your second aunt will also have to fry eggs to entertain her son-in-law."

While they were eating, Wang Yunying suddenly came over and said she was looking for some cloth. When she saw Lu Jingyou, she was very surprised: "What is this?"

"This is Jiaojiao's girlfriend." Chen Guilan stepped forward and introduced, "Xiao Lu, this is your aunt."

When Su Jiaojiao heard her mother calling Lu Jingyou "Xiao Lu", she smiled.

Xiao Lu, it sounds pretty good.

"Happy New Year, aunt." Comrade Xiao Lu put down his chopsticks, stood up and greeted Wang Yunying politely.

"Okay, okay." Wang Yunying looked Lu Jingyou up and down, then asked Chen Guilan with a smile, "Is this the girl your second brother introduced to Jiaojiao before the New Year?"
