Chapter 218 You Have to Meet the Father-in-law and the Mother-in-law
"Yes." Ji Lianqi admitted generously and placed the things he bought in the afternoon on the table. "Please... help pass it on to the two elders."
"You are really concerned about this, kid!" Ye Ning laughed and agreed, "It's not a big problem. It would be best if you could go together."
"You don't have to stay for long, even a day or two will be fine!"
Ye Ning still wanted to try his best to bring Ji Lianqi home.
"Forget it, maybe next time."
"Why? What's wrong with coming back home with me? Do the old people think you can be eaten up by them?" Ye Ning did not give up and tried his best to get Ji Lianqi to integrate into his family.
In his opinion, Ye Ying was a hot potato. Marrying her, his good comrade of many years, was simply a marriage between relatives, and he had to seize the opportunity no matter what.
"Or are you still thinking about Lin Jie's sister? Are you still thinking about submitting a divorce report?"
Hearing Ye Ning talking about something irrelevant, Ji Lianqi's face suddenly darkened: "Ye Ning, why are you talking about this again? That was so long ago!"
"Then tell me, you have nothing to do now, why can't you come back with me?"
"Brother, if you want to continue living with Ye Ying, you have to meet your father-in-law and mother-in-law, right?"
Ye Ning kept persuading him tirelessly, as if he was determined to convince Ji Lianqi no matter what.
"I told you to wait for Ye Ying." Ji Lianqi's tone was somewhat helpless, but he thought what Ye Ning said seemed to be right.
After all, I have been married for so long, but I have never formally met Ye Ying's family.
But, it's not that he doesn't want to meet their family, it's just...
Everyone in their village knew what Ye Ying had done to him that led to their marriage.
If he goes back with Ye Ning this time, not only will he become a laughing stock, but who knows what else might happen.
Ye Ning seemed to see something from his expression.
Then he narrowed his eyes and said, "You kid - you don't dare to go!"
"What are you afraid of? I don't think anyone will dare to laugh at you! Come on, hurry up and pack your things. If this is the reason, it's easy to deal with."
"Why don't you just not show your face? When I'm done, I'll tell others that this is my good comrade who came with me to go home to visit my family."
…
However, after Ye Ning finished speaking, Ji Lianqi just looked at him as if he was an idiot: "Stop giving me bad advice. I said next time, so it's next time."
Seeing that Ji Lianqi was unmoved, Ye Ning waved his hands in frustration: "Oh! You are just stubborn! It won't hurt to go there."
"Besides, so much time has passed, who would still recognize you, Captain Ji? We, the fellow villagers, don't remember things, so you don't have to be afraid at all."
Ji Lianqi moved his lips but said nothing.
"Oh no, there I go." Ye Ning turned around and went back to the cupboard to find a pair of toad-eye glasses, and put them on Ji Lianqi.
"Look, who can recognize you now, Captain Ji? If anyone asks me, I will say that you lost your sight during the mission!"
Ji Lianqi took off the toad mirror and looked at Ye Ning speechlessly.
In the end, Ye Ning tried his best and unexpectedly persuaded Ji Lianqi.
A day later, the two actually got on a car to Dayan Village, and both of them were holding several things in their hands.
By the time they returned to the entrance of Dayan Village with great effort, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
The weather is cold. Although it is early March and spring has begun in the south, it is still freezing in the north.
At the "intelligence organization" at the entrance of the village, because of the cold weather, there were basically no people, only a few stray dogs wandering around.
Although there were not many people around, for "safety reasons", Ye Ning still took out the toad mirror and put it on Ji Lianqi.
It looks as weird as it can be.
Ji Lianqi also felt that he looked stupid like this, and just as he reached out to take it off, he heard Ye Ning whisper:
"Don't pick it."
Then, a few old ladies suddenly jumped out from nowhere, very surprised: "Oh! Isn't this Ye Ning? It's rare for him to come home!"
"Yeah, just arrived!" Ye Ning replied with a smile.
"Hey? Who's the guy next to you?" Old Mrs. Xu looked at the tall and strong guy next to Ye Ning with curiosity.
"Oh! This is my good comrade!" Ye Ning explained calmly, "I just happened to be on vacation and had nothing to do, so I brought him here to stay for two days to improve his diet!"
"You know what we eat in the army, big pot meals. It's not as delicious as at home."
"So he's a comrade!" Mrs. Wu nodded in praise. "This guy looks good, and he's quite tall. But I don't know why he has to wear glasses?"
Ji Lianqi stretched out his hand and wanted to take off the stupid toad mirror.
But he was immediately stopped by Ye Ning's suggestive cough.
"It looks good! What else can I do?"
Ye Ning explained with a smile. Before the old ladies could speak, he spoke first: "Okay, okay, aunties, I'm in a hurry to go home for dinner! I won't chat with you guys for now!"
After saying that, Ye Ning quickly pulled Shang Ji Lianqi and ran towards home without looking back.
"Dad, Mom! I'm back." Ye Ning shouted when he arrived outside the house.
When Ye Shuncheng saw Ye Ning bringing a "black blind man" home, he was stunned on the spot.
Hearing the noise in the yard, Li Yanmei, who was cooking, wiped her hands on her apron, put down the shovel, and hurried over.
"Ye Ning, who is this?" Ye Shuncheng squinted at Ji Lianqi, feeling that the young man in front of him seemed familiar.
Ye Ning took a look outside, ran out and closed the door, then took off the toad mirror that Ji Lianqi was wearing and said as if to take credit: "Look, who did I bring back for you?"
Although the scars left on Ji Lianqi's face by "Operation Black Hawk" have not completely disappeared, they have faded a lot and he is still recognizable.
When Ye Shuncheng and Li Yanmei saw that the person standing in front of them was actually their son-in-law, their eyes widened as big as copper bells.
"It turned out to be Captain Ji, Captain Ji!" Ye Shuncheng couldn't change his words for a while.
"Sir, why do you still call him battalion commander?" Ye Ning frowned and pointed out seriously, "This is your son-in-law, Ji Lianqi! Don't call him battalion commander, that's too formal!"
After saying that, he turned around, patted Ji Lianqi's shoulder, raised his eyebrows and said, "Isn't it, brother-in-law?"
Ji Lianqi was stunned for a moment, then he coughed and said, "Dad, Mom, you can just call me Lianqi from now on."
Seeing the two elders were surprised again, he handed them the things in his hand and explained, "I knew Ye Ning was going home, and I happened to have nothing to do, so I... came back with him to take a look."
Ji Lianqi paused and said the words Ye Ning had prepared for him in advance, "After all... Ye Ying and I have been married for so long, and I haven't had the chance to formally visit you."
