Chapter 142 Chapter 142 (2/2)



Shang Ruirui, who also heard the sound of the car, stood up and said with a smile: "It should be my mom and the others who are here."

After saying this, she quickly walked out.

"Hey? Why did you get here so soon?" After lunch, the elders came to the business to get to know each other as the sun was shining. They didn't expect that the young people didn't go out to row a boat or watch a movie, but stayed at home. Tian Yu glared at his nephew in disappointment.

Tian Jun touched his nose and did not refute, but reached out to help the elders carry things.

Shang Ruirui, who rushed over, smiled and explained: "It's me who doesn't want to be outside. Why don't the aunts play outside for a while longer?"

Tian Yu's attitude towards her future nephew's wife immediately changed. She took the little girl's hand and smiled, "That's right. The sun is too strong. The little girl's skin is so tender. Don't let her get sunburned. Now, let Xiaojun take the things. Let's go in first."

Tian Mi, who was sitting in the driver's seat, also smiled: "Yes, you guys go in first, I'll stay and help Xiao Jun sort out the things."

As a junior, Shang Ruirui didn't really go into the house, let alone stand still, so she stepped forward to help.

"Hey, where did this little sleeper car come from?" Private cars were very rare at that time, and Beijingers were used to calling them "little sleeper cars". The aunts in the house saw the car before they even stepped out of the door, and they immediately got curious.

Min Xiu was a gentle person, and didn't know that these people just disliked their future son-in-law. Hearing this, he smiled and explained, "Aunt Xiaojuan's car was sent to us, and we came to meet the family."

Anyone who is not a fool can tell who this Xiaojun is.

This time, the aunts were not only surprised, but also looked at Wang Mei with an indescribable expression.

Wang Mei straightened her back and said stubbornly, "...What's the big deal? Who knows where she borrowed it from? I'm afraid she's using the public bus for personal purposes and trying to steal socialism, right?"

Hearing this, everyone frowned. This was really annoying.

Although the general environment has changed, no one dares to say whether there will be new policies tomorrow. It is both stupid and vicious to accuse others of trying to undermine socialism.

Especially Tian Yu, who was very protective of her younger sister, was very annoyed. The car was clearly a second-hand car awarded by the organization as a reward for her second sister's great contribution. How come other people said it was a public vehicle for personal use?

Besides, even if you use the bus for personal purposes once in a while, it's not impossible. You just have to pay for the gas yourself.

The organization has allowed it, so why should others complain?

But the three of them, the aunt and nephew, were guests after all, or on the threshold of a blind date. It was their first time there, so they couldn't help but quarrel and could only hold their anger.

The future in-laws were willing to endure it, but Min Xiu was not. This was even more unbearable than scolding her. Wasn't Wang Mei deliberately trying to ruin her daughter's marriage?

She has a bad temper, but she is not without temper!

Min Xiu grabbed her daughter who was about to rush towards him, blocked her behind her, and pushed him to scold her.

Helpless all his life, Professor Min, who currently works at the Academy of Fine Arts, found that when he wanted to scold someone, he found that he didn't know how to do it, and instead he got so angry that he started to tremble.

Seeing this, Tang Qingqing lifted her sleeves, took the mother and daughter in one hand, and pulled them behind her. She frowned and started to curse: "Bullshit, this car belongs to someone else, who did you steal? Did you see it? Keep your mouth shut. Besides, even if it's borrowed, so what? They paid for the gas themselves, why do you have to gossip about it? Who do you think you are? Also, don't think I didn't see it just now, your nose is like a rat's nose, you were sniffing around, weren't you just after the gasoline smell of the car? Didn't you say it's a socialist corner? If you have the ability, don't you smell it? You're so hypocritical!"

The words came out like a string of cannonballs without any pause, making Wang Mei's face turn red and she couldn't utter a word.

Of course, the most important thing was that she didn't dare to scold him, because she knew that Tang Qingqing's husband was the brigade commander.

To be precise, Tang Qingqing deliberately let the people around her know.

It is also because of her existence that those who want to take advantage of the Shang family mother and daughter are restrained.

Shang Ruirui complained at the right time: "Aunt Wang just said that Tian Jun is not as good as her nephew who is learning to butcher pigs."

"What? What did you say?" Tang Qingqing couldn't believe what she heard. She put her hands on her hips and said, "Our Xiaojun is a college student, a military academy student! You know shit. Besides, our Ruirui already has a partner, and Xiaojun also has a house, with two courtyards! A private house with a separate entrance! How can your nephew compare to him? Why are you so arrogant? Don't think I don't know what you are thinking? Just look at your little abacus..."

Ms. Tang Qingqing was really good at talking. After another round of rant, she made Wang Mei so embarrassed that she could not stay any longer and ran away in shame with her head down.

She had no choice but to run away. Not to mention that she couldn't beat him or scold him, she just wanted the other person's house in her heart, and it would be embarrassing to be pointed out in public.

The other aunts were not completely ignorant and had no intention of staying any longer after seeing this situation. After a few awkward glances, they left in a hurry.

However, because of Tang Qingqing's outburst, people nearby soon knew that the merchant girl had found a soldier as her partner, who was a college student, had a house, a respectable family, and a small sleeper car...

Shang Ruirui and Tian Jun, who were directly confronted, were reluctant to look at each other...

This commotion really affected my mood.

Especially Min Xiuyu, no one knows a girl better than her mother. It’s no wonder that she can see her daughter’s feelings for Xiaojun.

She was afraid that these messy affairs would ruin the boy's impression of her, and she was always restless.

In order to reassure her, the Tian family stayed a little longer, until about four o'clock, when they said goodbye.

When they said goodbye, Tian Jun did not forget to take the initiative to ask the girl to meet again tomorrow.

On the way to the destination.

The aunt and niece were in a very good mood, talking and laughing.

Of course, Tian Yu and Tian Mi were responsible for joking, while Tian Jun was responsible for listening and occasionally responding with a few words.

"... Ruirui's life wasn't easy either. I remembered your situation back then, Erya. What do you think? Should we ask Ruirui to write down the names of those families with bad intentions, and we can go to their homes one by one to talk to them (warn them)?" After joking, Tian Yu became worried again.

She didn't know exactly how much wealth the merchant had, and she had no intention of asking, but it must be a lot to attract so many people.

Ruirui and her mother have to take care of this family fortune, which is really like a child holding gold, it is so difficult.

Tian Jun shook his head: "No need to do that, I'll just run a few more times. By the way, Second Aunt, for convenience, I've recently lived in a courtyard house, which is close to the business."

Hearing this, Tian Mi nodded and said, "Go to the troops first tonight, and then you can drive over. The car will be yours for the time being."

"No, I have my own car."

"It's inconvenient to drive your own car. You still lack a lot of things at home. It's easier for you to buy pots, pans, and other daily necessities yourself. You can bring Ruirui with you. She studies fine arts and must have aesthetic taste. Buy what she likes. It will be more convenient to have a car."

Tian Jun still hesitated.

Tian Mi smiled and said, "Don't think too much. It's not easy for me to use a car. Your second uncle's unit has a car, so this one won't be a problem."

Hearing this, Tian Jun's brows relaxed: "Thank you, Second Aunt."

"Why are you being polite to me? By the way, we don't have to go to each family one by one, but when you get along well with Ruirui, you can invite Xinxin and Xuexue, as well as Sister Nan, to get together at the Shangjia and have an engagement dinner or something. You can all drive over then. It's not intentional, but it will show off." Don't say she is superficial or something. Sometimes, people are like this, bullying the good and fearing the evil. As long as you stand high enough, those evil spirits will be cautious.

In this era, a few military vehicles are enough to provide a protective umbrella.

Tian Yu slapped his thigh: "This one! This one!"

Although Tian Jun felt that this behavior was somewhat shameful, he thought about it for a few seconds and agreed. He was never blind, and he had no way of guaranteeing that he could always stay by the girl's side.

Seeing that her nephew agreed, Tian Mi smiled mischievously: "You didn't object to the engagement, so you think Ruirui is suitable? When do you plan to make it clear?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Tian Yu also looked over with a smile.

Tian Jun touched his nose uncomfortably and answered the question irrelevantly: "Second Aunt, what kind of men do girls like?"

Aunt Qingqing said in front of so many people that he and Shang Ruirui were a couple. Looking at the girl's rosy cheeks, he did not object anymore, and the relationship was already decided.

However, Tian Jun always felt that some feelings needed her to give a form.

This is respect!

"Is it for showing off?" Tian Mi asked again.

"Ahem...she said she likes me."

Hearing this, Tian Mi stopped teasing him and said, "Rose, for example, is a symbol of love. It is said that it can be traced back to the ancient Greek mythology. I don't know if it's true or not, but your uncle Xiangyang planted half a yard of roses for Nan Qiao. By the way, the rose season in Beijing starts at the end of May, so we should be able to catch the last batch now."

Tian Jun seemed to be thinking about something. It must be too late to plant seeds now...

It’s a little after eight in the evening.

After sending his aunts to the army and then rushing back to the courtyard, Tian Jun first went to his uncle's house.

Tian Xiangyang opened the door and looked at his tall and strong nephew, who was three years older than him. He was stunned: "Why are you here so late?"

Tian Jun did not answer immediately, but looked into the yard.

Seeing this, Tian Xiangyang, who thought his nephew had bad intentions, stepped aside and scolded with a smile: "What are you thinking about? It's so late and Nan Qiao is not here."

"I'm not looking for my aunt."

"What are you looking for?"

Tian Jun didn't rush to speak, but went straight to the yard.

He stopped when he came to a place full of fiery red flowers. He bent down slightly and looked at it: "Is this a rose?"

It is very delicate and beautiful.

But...what's the difference between this and Rose?

Tian Xiangyang was a little surprised: "Yes, it's Rose. Why are you suddenly interested in this?"

After receiving a positive answer, Tian Jun stood up straight and said directly: "Uncle, give me 19 flowers."

"What...what? No!" Tian Xiangyang, who had come to his senses, firmly refused. Are you kidding? He planted all the plants in the yard for his wife himself. How could he give them to another man? Even his nephew would not do that.

"So... 21?"

"dream!"

"33?"

"Get lost... No, what do you want to do?" Tian Xiangyang reacted after he got angry. These... 19, 21, 33 flowers, these are the numbers that his second sister had told him, representing love. Could it be that his nephew's blind date was successful today?

So fast? Before he and Nan Qiaoqian got together, they had only known each other for a month or two.

Even now, when his future father-in-law sees him, his eyes are not eyes and his nose is not a nose.

As a man, Tian Juan didn't have such bad intentions in front of his uncle, and admitted frankly: "I will tell you tomorrow that I like you in the future, but it's too late now, my second aunt said you have roses here."

This... Tian Xiangyang is of course happy that his nephew has finally met someone he likes.

But...he turned his eyes to the large rose bush...and felt pain.

Oh, right... As if remembering something, Tian Xiangyang patted his nephew's shoulder and said, "My rose bushes are not the freshest. Tomorrow morning, I will take you to my father-in-law to have them trimmed. He is an expert in growing roses. I am still an apprentice. If I want to show off, I must use the freshest ones, don't you think?"

Tian Jun...

Wei Cheng, who was humming a tune next door, said: “A-choo!”
