Chapter 119 Repairing Relationship
After climbing the Great Wall, we went to a state-owned hotel for dinner.
The money and tickets were all paid for by Xiao Qingru. There are three people in our family. The Fang siblings not only provided the car, but were also responsible for driving it. It is neither reasonable nor moral for them to let others pay for the meal.
We are all open-minded people and no one will take advantage.
Therefore, Xiao Qingru paid the money, and the Fang siblings did not fight to settle the bill.
If there is another opportunity in the future, we will treat you to a meal.
Only when there is give and take will people feel comfortable with each other and no one will have any psychological burden.
After dinner, Fang Yingqiu sent them back to Xu's house again.
Seeing several female students gathered at the entrance of the alley, their eyes constantly glancing at Xiao Huaishu's body, Fang Yingqiu understood.
It turns out that his previous hostility towards her was due to his reading of Xiao Huaishu.
Based on her previous temper, she might ignore it, or she might retaliate in the same way.
But the situation is different now. Xiao Huaishu has become her target, so it’s okay for her to assert her rights, right?
So, I followed them to Xu's house and planned to sit for a while before leaving.
The two walked side by side. Although there was still some distance between them, their eyes met from time to time. Anyone with eyes could see what was going on.
I have to give up this time. I can't just keep clinging to it, right?
Given Hsiao Chi's background, he has to muster up the courage to even talk to him, and pester him. Isn't this just trying to offend people?
Moreover, the female journalist next to him must be of extraordinary status, otherwise she wouldn't be able to afford a jeep.
They didn't want to do anything boring, so they just dispersed.
Fang Yingqiu achieved her goal and was in a good mood.
Although I know that Xiao Huaishu would not have an affair with anyone, I still feel uncomfortable knowing that my partner is being remembered by others.
I feel much better now.
Xiao Huaishu lowered his eyes and looked at Fang Yingqiu, his eyes full of smiles.
Xiao Huaishu did not find her possessiveness offensive, but rather enjoyed it.
It's good to be possessive, it's a sign that you care about your partner!
Xu's mother poured water for the guests and said, "Don't leave later. Stay at home for dinner tonight. Auntie will make steamed cakes for you."
"Auntie, please stop working. We'll just take a break and leave. Our family is waiting for us."
"It's just a few minutes early. It won't cause any trouble."
"My brother went to the countryside in the northwest and only comes back to visit once every two years. He can only stay at home for five days. My parents want to have more meals with him."
Parents can best understand each other's feelings.
"Okay, next time you come, you must have a meal at my house. You can't refuse anymore."
"must."
Fang Yingqiu didn't want to cause trouble for the Xu family, so she drank a glass of water and was about to leave.
Xiao Huaishu went out to see them off.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu's mother asked Xiao Qingru, "How is your brother and that Fang Zhi doing? Did it work out?"
Xiao Qingru nodded, "It's settled, but right now we're just talking about dating, there's no sign of marriage yet."
"It's good to have a partner." Xu's mother repeated it twice.
"You have to eat one bite at a time. Now that you have found a partner, you're not far from getting married. That Fang Zhi is a straightforward person. Your brother has a good eye."
Xiao Qingru smiled and said, "Fang Zhi is very good."
"That's why we should seize the opportunity. It would be a shame if we missed it."
In the minds of the older generation, getting married and having children are big events, and Xiao Qingru did not discuss this topic in depth with her mother-in-law.
There are bound to be some conflicting opinions between two people, and talking too much will only hurt feelings.
When dealing with others, one cannot take everything too seriously. One must learn to focus on the big picture and let go of the small details. Xiao Qingru has always believed in this view.
"By the way, I just called my mother-in-law and told her some news."
Xiao Qingru didn't find it surprising. When she was in the northwest, her mother would call Beijing if something happened at home.
We are all family, there is no need to hide this matter.
“My mom might regret it.”
"What do you regret?"
"I regret not coming to Beijing with you."
Mother Xu thought about it carefully and said, "It is indeed possible."
When she first knew her son had a lover, she was very anxious and wanted to see her future daughter-in-law in person.
She has been through this and can understand her mother-in-law's feelings.
They guessed it right. Xiao's mother couldn't sit still since she received the call.
Keep wondering what kind of girl the other person is?
What's your temperament and personality like?
Do you like our Huaishu?
If I had known earlier, I should have gone to Beijing with my children to celebrate the New Year, so that I could have seen my future daughter-in-law in person.
"What are you doing walking around? It makes me dizzy."
"I'm thinking about something, don't mess with me."
"What big thing are you thinking about that makes you so abnormal?"
Xiao's mother finally sat down on the sofa and said, "I wonder if my son really catches the girl, should he go to Beijing?"
"We haven't even started yet, what do you want to do so much?"
"This kind of thing happens very quickly. It only takes a moment for them to fall in love. If this thing can be accomplished, then isn't the most urgent thing for our son?"
It is not a problem for two young people, one in Beijing and the other in the northwest, to live apart for a long time.
Xiao's mother thought the best solution was to transfer her son to Beijing.
After all, people always strive for higher goals.
Going to Beijing is a good way.
Mr. Xiao is not that worried about his son's marriage.
"Wait until you come back and listen to what you have to say."
"You must want to be with that girl."
"It's no use thinking about it. We have to let you express your own attitude. We can't decide everything for you."
Xiao's mother asked, "Do you want to go to Beijing?"
"It's your own business. If you want to go to Beijing, go and fight for it. The child is grown up, I can't control so much."
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao's mother tentatively said, "If you pave the road for me, can't I go to Beijing?"
Father Xiao said sternly, "Your ideological awareness needs to be improved."
Xiao's mother restrained her expression for a second, "I just said it casually, and you took it too seriously."
"Just saying it casually proves that you really thought about it."
Mother Xiao: “…”
She thought about what happened?
I didn't go out and fool around.
This person is in charge of everything, even the thoughts in her head.
Besides, isn't it normal for her to have such thoughts?
Not only is he unwilling to help, he actually scolds people!
He snorted, picked up the vegetable basket and walked towards the gate.
"Where are you going?"
"None of your business."
Father Xiao touched his nose and seemed to have pissed someone off again.
He quickly put down the newspaper in his hand and followed him out.
"Are you going to the fields to pick some cabbages? I'll go. It's so cold. You wait at home."
"Do you know where it is?"
"I don't know, but I can ask."
Xiao's mother rolled her eyes and said, "I dare not call you."
Very weird.
It’s confirmed, I’m really angry!
Father Xiao immediately took the basket of vegetables from his wife's hand and said, "You are my daughter-in-law, so you should obey my orders."
"Stop talking nonsense."
"I'm telling the truth. As long as I'm home, you can do whatever you want to me."
"I don't want to bother with you."
The couple went to the vegetable garden while arguing.
Harvest the remaining cabbage and replant it in the spring.
Although it was just a small matter for Xiao's father to work in the fields, it still caused a sensation in the family compound.
Everyone envied Xiao's mother for marrying a good husband. Even though he held a high position, he was just an ordinary man when he returned home.
Children raised in such a family will definitely be good.
Xiao Qingru was already married, and the only one left was Xiao Huaishu.
So, during the New Year's greetings, someone mentioned that they wanted to introduce someone to Xiao Huaishu.
However, Xiao's mother rejected all of them.
Just say that your son has someone he likes, 놇京市.
With this said, everyone understood why Xiao Huaishu didn't spend the New Year at home.
It turns out that he has traveled all the way to Beijing to pursue his girlfriend!
Young people are really energetic.
If it were someone else, they would definitely choose to look for a suitable partner locally and then get married.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Jiang's mother also came to the Xiao family to pay New Year's greetings and brought two cans of food.
Holding the child, Jiang's mother's face was full of grievance.
"Everything that happened before was Du Wanqiu's fault. If she hadn't interfered, our two families wouldn't have become so estranged."
"Qingru is a good child. She used to give us gifts during every festival. I still remember all that."
Xiao's mother accepted the can generously. Qingru had sent many things to the Jiang family in the past.
What is this?
Don’t miss it.
"It seems that the gifts I gave you before were not in vain. She is married now, but you still remember her. I, Qingru, thank you very much."
Jiang's mother forced a smile and said, "It's just a matter of courtesy. There's no need to be so polite."
After talking for a while, Jiang's mother couldn't stand Xiao's mother's weird temper anymore, so she took the child and left.
Because of Du Wanqiu, the Jiang family's popularity is very bad.
During the Chinese New Year, even if something unpleasant happens, everyone will choose to shake hands and make peace.
Jiang's mother is now actively repairing the relationship, and only hopes that the people in the family compound will stop bullying her.
Since we can't defeat the enemies, let's join them.
This is the latest truth that Jiang's mother has realized.
"Don't you hate her? Why are you accepting her things?"
"I won't eat it. I'll feed it to the dog and I won't give it back to her."
Xiao's mother proudly opened the can, filled a bowl and placed it on the table in front of Xiao's father.
"eat."
Father Xiao: “…”
If you eat it, won’t you turn into a dog?
I took a bite and said, "This thing is too sweet. I don't like it."
"Xiao 땢zhi, it's wrong to waste food."
Old Xiao Zhi came to his senses and realized that his wife was seeking revenge.
