More than ten minutes later, while waiting for the red light, Zhou Qizhen also ended the call.
He glanced at the co-pilot and his dog and asked, "Did you miss breakfast?"
"Well, no, but I'm not hungry either." I was afraid that he would arrive soon and I would have to wait for a long time, so I got up and started to work immediately. Until now, I don't feel hungry at all.
"You still have to eat breakfast. Drink some milk."
After Zhou Qizhen finished speaking, he handed her the milk on the central control box.
Lu Xiaoqiao was a little surprised, wondering how he knew that she hadn't had breakfast, but she still said politely, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
She took the milk and took a sip. In fact, she really hated the taste of milk, but she was too embarrassed to say it because someone bought it with good intentions after all.
"How do you put it into the bag?" Zhou Qizheng pointed at the dumpling she was holding.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the red light turned green and started the car.
"I'm afraid it will shed hair and dirty the car. Sometimes when I go downstairs to crowded places, I'm afraid there are people in the community who are afraid of dogs, so I put it in a bag. It's used to it, you see, it doesn't even bark."
Zhou Qizheng glanced to the right: "Well, he looks quite well behaved."
He himself didn't know whether he was talking about people or dogs.
The Zhou family's old residence is located next to the Yingyue Lake in the scenic area. The road was smooth at first, but when we were almost at the old residence, there was a traffic jam for about ten minutes.
The car drove into the yard. Zhou Qi had parked the car under the golden osmanthus tree as usual. Perhaps because of the good weather, several people in the old house were sitting in the pavilion in the yard.
Lu Xiaoqiao checked her phone and saw that it was almost eleven o'clock in the afternoon, but this was a good time to prepare lunch.
After saying hello to a few people, I went to the kitchen.
Zhao Yaqin looked at her and it seemed as if she came here just to eat shrimps.
How could this be possible? He had gone through so much trouble, persuading Lin Lin to eat shrimps and asking Zhou's father to call his son to discuss something. His purpose was not to make her a chef.
"Xiao Qiao! Just tell me and Aunt Zhang how to do it. Go to the yard and play with Qi Zheng...Lin Lin and the others."
Zhao Yaqin had never done such a thing before and was so nervous that she couldn't even finish her sentence.
"It's okay, grandma. I'll do it while you watch. I see we still have shrimps. I'll make some salt and pepper prawns later. I heard that Mr. Zhou also likes shrimps, so it's a good idea to make two kinds today."
Zhao Yaqin was stunned. She had always known that Qi Zheng liked to eat fish, but when did he start liking shrimp? But she still smiled and replied, "Yes, yes, Qi Zheng likes it."
I had originally wanted to let the two of them interact more to foster their relationship, but I couldn't find a good excuse to push it out.
It would be better for me to cultivate a good relationship with her first, which might even serve as a breakthrough in my relationship with Qi Zheng.
Thinking of this, he became more and more enthusiastic towards Lu Xiaoqiao.
In the yard.
Lin Lin held Tuanzi and played in the pavilion for a while, and suddenly remembered that there were snacks at home that she had bought for Tuanzi before. However, she did not give them to Tuanzi because she had injured her foot and was not at work. She also forgot about it when Xiao Qiao came a few days ago.
Put the dumplings on the table and go upstairs to get snacks.
Lin Lin's foot had almost healed, but Lin Ziyang was worried that she would fall again when going upstairs, so he helped her upstairs to get it.
Zhou Qi was picking up Tuanzi from the table, placing him on his lap and playing with him by the chin.
Father Zhou picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then glanced at his son.
"What's the matter? Are you...loving the whole family?"
A few days ago, my eldest daughter called me back and confirmed that he did have that feeling about the girl.
The eldest daughter was afraid that she would not agree because of family background issues. If it were a few years ago, she would really not agree.
But in recent years, the two have had many arguments over the issue of arranging a marriage for Zhou Qizhen. At first, I thought he just refused the marriage arrangement, but later I found out that he didn't even have the intention of getting married. It makes me tired just thinking about it. Now, as long as he is willing to get married, I will be grateful.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhou's father snorted and said with a smile: "Did you hear her just now? She called me grandpa! Can you pay more attention? You can't even handle such a small matter properly."
Ever since Zhou Qizhen was old enough to understand, he had never given his father any worries, whether in study or work, and he could not find any faults for him to satisfy his craving for disciplining his son.
Today, I finally got the chance.
"What's the point of you holding a dog? It's a real talent if you can let me hold my grandson!"
"Look at your grandson's grandson. He has memorized the whole book of "Di Zi Gui" so well."
"For people your age, there are only you, Yuxuan, and Shen Yi. I don't know what you are thinking about all day. At least Shen Yi has a fiancée."
At the end, Zhou's father said to himself: "Ah, I don't know when you can make up your mind."
"What did you decide? Grandpa, what did you and uncle talk about?"
When Zhou's father saw the two people who had just gone upstairs to get something came back, he didn't say anything else. He still had to save face for his son in front of the younger generation.
After the meal was ready in the kitchen, Zhao Yaqin came out and called a few people to eat.
The seats where several people sat were still the same as a few days ago, but the atmosphere was different from last time. Today everyone seemed to be in a good mood, and they communicated at the dinner table like a normal family.
"Xiao Qiao made two kinds of shrimp today, one wasabi shrimp and the other pepper and salt shrimp. Xiao Qiao, how come you are so amazing? You can cook so deliciously even though you are not that old."
When Lin Lin heard Zhao Yaqin praising the little sisters, she quickly echoed, "Of course! Xiao Qiao can cook a lot of dishes."
His words were full of pride, and then he continued with a smile as if he had thought of something: "Whoever marries Xiao Qiao in the future will be so happy."
Zhao Yaqin glanced at Zhou Qizhen who was sitting opposite her and saw that he was staring at the girl.
After noticing that Zhao Yaqin was also looking at him, he lowered his head and ate the food in the bowl as if nothing had happened.
Zhao Yaqin raised her lips, then turned to Lu Xiaoqiao and asked casually, "Xiaoqiao, you are not in a relationship yet, right? What kind of boyfriend do you like? I have a suitable one to introduce to you."
Lu Xiaoqiao didn't expect to be asked about relationship issues when having dinner at her friend's house. Before she could say anything, Lin Lin took over the question.
"No way, grandma. Xiao Qiao is the same age as me. Who is in a hurry to get married at the age of 22?"
Zhou's father disagreed: "When your mother was your age, she already had your brother."
Zhao Yaqin: "What kind of person does Xiao Qiao like? If you ask me, this woman would choose someone older than herself to marry, who is caring and considerate."
"Then you should look for someone with a better family background and a successful career, so that you don't have to worry about material things after marriage. Men should be mature, stable and sophisticated. What do you think, Xiao Qiao?"
"Pfft!" Lin Ziyang couldn't help laughing: "Grandma, what you're talking about is not looking for a husband, but more like looking for a father."
"My brother is right, this is clearly looking for daddy, hehe, people our age all like sunshine, right, Xiao Qiao."
Lu Xiaoqiao was most afraid of being caught in the middle of this kind of question, and she had no idea how to answer it.
Zhao Yaqin scolded, "What do you know, kid? Let Xiao Qiao tell me for herself. What kind of person do you like?"
If she didn't give a clear answer, it would be a shame. Lu Xiaoqiao thought for a moment and replied seriously, "Personality is not a big deal. It's OK if the two of you can get along. The most important thing is to have chemistry."
This is Lu Xiaoqiao's highest standard. As for having a successful career or a good family, she doesn't even dare to think about it. As for family background, it is better to marry someone of equal status.
She didn't want to be like her good friend Qin Momo, who almost lost her life because of love.
I heard from Zhao Zhizhi that the scumbag was rejected by the boy’s parents because his family was rich and because of his family background.
