Chapter 122 Returning Home Early

Xu family.

Xiao Qingru has always been worried about her brother, fearing that the Fang family is dissatisfied with him.

Xu's mother comforted her, "Huai Shu is a good child picked out of thousands. This matter is almost certain. You don't have to worry about him."

If it were an ordinary person, this matter might be a mystery.

But the Xiao family was well-off, and Xiao Huaishu was also ambitious, so Xu's mother really didn't think it was a big problem.

"You'll know the situation when he comes back." Xu Muzhou touched Xiao Qingru's head and comforted her.

Xiao Qingru sighed, "I suddenly feel that I am destined to be a worrier."

Xu's mother was amused by her, "You are so young, what is there to worry about?"

"I can't really tell."

"As for the matter of getting married, the people involved are more anxious, so we don't need to worry about it."

Mother Xu glanced at her son. Wasn't he also very anxious at this time last year?

At this time, the steamed buns were also ready. In order to divert Xiao Qingru's attention, Xu's mother handed her a bun and said, "Try it first."

“It looks delicious, no need to try it.”

The milk steamed buns are white and fluffy, and have a light milky aroma. Just the appearance of the buns makes people hungry.

"Try it first, and then we can eat after mom cooks two more dishes."

Xiao Qingru could only take the steamed bun and give half to Xu's mother, "You try it too."

He shared the remaining half with Xu Muzhou.

"You get what you pay for. It tastes better when you add milk."

Xiao Qingru also thought it was delicious, with a slight sweetness that was not greasy, and made people want to eat it again.

Xu Muzhou turned his head to look at her, "Why don't we buy some milk powder and do the same when we go back home."

Xiao Qingru thought this was a bad idea, "Milk powder and fresh milk taste different, so don't bother."

Xu Muzhou said nothing, thinking that he must buy some milk powder. Even if he didn't use it to make steamed buns, it would be good for his wife to drink a cup every day to nourish her body.

It wasn't until dinner time that Xiao Huaishu came back.

Xiao Qingru couldn't wait to ask him about the situation, "Do Comrade Fang's parents agree?"

"I agree."

Xiao Huaishu said arrogantly, "When your brother takes action, there is nothing he can't do."

Xiao Qingru was happy for him, but couldn't help teasing him, "Who asked you to make plans before? You are so amazing, why do you still need your help?"

"You are my dear brother, isn't it right for you to help me?"

Xiao Qingru gave him a look that showed her own understanding, "Go call your parents. They know about Comrade Fang."

"It's already gone."

"Mom will be happy."

"It's rare that I can still give you a compliment."

The purpose of coming to Beijing has been achieved, but Xiao Huaishu feels a little dizzy, as if this is not quite real.

Laughed foolishly twice.

Receiving Xu Muzhou's disgusted look, he immediately restrained his expression.

"Qingru, I will go back to the northwest in two days. You should stay here and spend more time with the elders. Come back after the holiday."

Xiao Qingru was a little surprised, "You just found someone now, won't you stay for a few more days?"

"Your sister-in-law's vacation is not that long. She will be off after the Chinese New Year. There is nothing to do here. Why not go back and spend time with your parents?"

Thinking of the deserted appearance of the house, Xiao Qingru stopped persuading him.

Because he returned to the northwest ahead of time, Xiao Huaishuji was not at home for the next two days. Needless to say, everyone knew that he went out on a date with Comrade Fang.

The day before he left, he brought back a lot of things, some of which were bought for the Xu family.

Maotai liquor for Xu's father, silk meat for Xu's mother, in addition to two pounds of meat and a roast duck.

"Why are you so polite, kid?"

Xu's mother took the silk and looked at it. "This is a popular style in Shanghai. One piece of silk costs ten yuan."

"Money is earned and spent. You have been taking care of me all this time, providing me with delicious food every day. I am sorry to trouble you."

"Well, as a family, what's the big deal? We can still eat even if you don't come, but it's not about adding a pair of chopsticks."

Xiao Huaishu smiled and said, "Please keep it safe. I will come back to bother you next time I come to Beijing."

"Your room is always reserved. You can come anytime."

Xiao Huaishu left the next morning, and the Xu family specially prepared a delicious meal to entertain him that night.

The meat that had just been bought was quickly made into a meat dish and served on the table.

Xiao Huaishu felt a little embarrassed; he wanted them to eat slowly.

It is said that you should eat dumplings when you get on the bus and noodles when you get off. Although making dumplings is troublesome, Xu's mother still uses half of the meat to make dumplings.

Everyone had a meal together, and early the next morning, Xiao Huaishu set out for the station.

There's not many people at home, and it feels a little lonely.

Before I could adjust, the Xu couple came back to work at the factory.

Then, Xu Muzhou and Xiao Qingru were the only ones left at home.

Because the factory was far away, Xu's parents did not go home for lunch at noon, so Xu Muzhou and Xiao Qingru had more time to be alone.

"Wife, let's go to the hospital today."

As long as this matter is not resolved, Xiao Qingru and Xu Muzhou will be thinking about it all day.

I didn't want to worry my parents, and the hospital was on holiday, so I didn't go.

In order to make it easier for them to travel, Xu's mother left her bicycle at her home, and her husband picked her up and dropped her off at get off work.

Xu Muzhou patted the back seat and said, "Wife, get in."

As soon as Xiao Qingru sat down, the man pulled her hands forward and wrapped them around his waist.

"It would have a bad impact if someone saw us."

"We didn't do anything else, what's wrong with that?"

He gave Xiao Qingru a soothing look, "Be calm, don't be afraid."

Xiao Qingru followed him and would not take her hand away when she met someone.

After making sure that Xiao Qingru was firmly seated, Xu Muzhou stepped on the pedal and the bicycle moved forward steadily.

Cross the alley and arrive at the main road.

There were already a lot of people outside at this time, and everyone was busy with their own things, so no one noticed the young couple.

Xiao Qingru hugged Xu Muzhou's waist with ease. The tall man blocked the cold wind for her.

The inspection items were the same as those in the military hospital, and Xiao Qingru was already familiar with the procedures.

Xu Muzhou accompanied them throughout the whole process, and he was responsible for queuing and paying the fees.

When there are many people around, he will protect Xiao Qingru and prevent others from bumping into her.

Many people go to the gynecology department, but very few of them have their husbands accompany them.

Although they didn't know Xiao Qingru, many people couldn't help but look at her with envy.

If there is someone to rely on, who would be willing to stand firm?
