Chapter 135 Meeting the Parents
Taking advantage of the last few days of summer vacation, Zhou Huaiyi and Huang Ling took Tuanan and Xiaoting back to Changzhou.
The two decided to meet Huang's parents first and then submit their marriage application after returning.
After the marriage application is approved, Huang Ling can get a pass to the military family compound and enter and leave the compound freely.
Huang's father and mother had met Zhou Huaiyi. At that time, Huang Ling had not yet divorced. Huang Ling drove Zhuang Chaoying to live in Zhuang's house. In order to reserve a house for their daughter, Huang's father and mother lived in Huang Ling's house for a while.
They had a very good impression of Zhou Huaiyi and his sister.
When they heard that their daughter's new boyfriend was him, they did not object. If nothing else, at least they felt that there was no problem with his character.
Before going back, Huang Ling called in advance to inform them that there was no need to go to the bus station to pick them up.
After entering the family compound, the Huang family elders realized that they had not taken the bus at all, and Zhou Huaiyi had driven there.
The trunk was full of gifts.
Huang's mother was not a snob, but she still muttered:
"I never thought that after being a mother-in-law for so many years, I would still be treated like this."
In the past, Zhuang Chaoying was stingy and never brought any decent gifts to the Huang family. The first time he came, he brought two boxes of pastries.
Huang's father instructed: "Don't say anything nonsense later."
"I know. It's not that I'm dissatisfied with Xiao Zhou. I just feel angry when I think of the Zhuang family." Mother Huang felt really distressed when she thought about it.
"Okay, it's all over, isn't it good now?"
As they were talking, the two of them had already arrived in front of the car.
"Uncle, aunt." Compared to the frankness when they first met, Zhou Huaiyi was shy now.
The six people worked together to make the gifts, even Xiaoting used some, and then they moved them back home.
When I entered the house, dinner was already prepared, with a table full of dishes.
There are many dishes that are difficult to make and handle. It seems that the two elders started preparing them early in the morning.
During the meal, Zhou Huaiyi drank two glasses with Huang's father.
After dinner, Huang's father called Zhou Huaiyi and Huang Ling into the study to talk.
They talked for quite a long time, and Huang's mother kept yawning. The two children were also sleepy watching TV, so Huang's mother arranged for the two children to wash up and go to bed first.
Anyway, Zhou Huaiyi was arranged to sleep on the small bed in the study, so it wouldn't affect their rest.
This small bed was originally slept in by Tunan.
The two elders cleaned out the room where the miscellaneous items were stored in advance, and threw away or gave away things that had not been used for many years. After tidying up, they separated the room with a curtain and prepared two small beds for the two children to live in.
The two siblings hadn't lived in the same room for a long time and were chatting quietly.
Huang's mother waited for Huang's father to return to the room and asked impatiently:
"Have you discussed what to say?"
"Well, he's a sensible kid. He didn't want to let Aling down, so he said we just had to make requests. He would do what he could do immediately, and find a way to do what he couldn't do."
"You mentioned it"
"Then can I propose it? I didn't say a word to Zhuang Chaoying. Oh, now that he's the factory director, I'm putting forward conditions. Is that reasonable?"
Huang's mother nodded: "What did you say?"
"He's planning to renovate his house in preparation for his wedding. He has everything he needs, including three wheels and a bell, and forty-eight legs. He has everything he needs, so what else is there to complain about?"
"Well, that's not bad. Besides, it doesn't matter. What matters is that he treats A Ling well."
"That's right. I said they can decide how to hold the ceremony. As for the dowry, we will convert it into cash. It will definitely be more than the first time."
"Well, that's good. I'll leave it to A Ling."
"They said they didn't want a cent, and that they would just treat their closest family and friends to a meal and then go on a trip to get married."
"Ah!" Huang's mother didn't quite understand.
"You don't understand! I don't understand either. It just means that the two of them go somewhere together to play. Anyway, I don't think this was Xiao Zhou's idea, it should be A Ling's idea."
"oh."
"Xiao Zhou asked about the betrothal gift, but I didn't take any. I didn't take Zhuang Chaoying's, and I certainly wouldn't take his either."
"Yeah, that's right, then it seems like we don't have to do anything."
Father Huang smiled. "They're both afraid of causing trouble for themselves and us, so I think this is a good idea. But it's not completely okay. When they go out to play, they'll send the two children to us to help take care of them."
"That's nothing."
The mother-in-law likes her son-in-law more and more.
No matter how you look at it, he is hundreds or thousands of times better than that dull Zhuang Chaoying.
Most importantly, there are no troublesome in-laws.
This was something she learned indirectly, and the source of the information was Xiaoting.
She got a headache when she thought of the Zhuang family.
There was no light in the living room outside the house. In the darkness, the two people who couldn't sleep got up and staggered around, and then bumped into each other.
Shouts and laughter were stifled.
Since he had bumped into her arms, Zhou Huaiyi simply hugged her tightly.
Huang Ling hugged him back, her face pressed against his chest.
After holding the baby for a while, Zhou Huaiyi's stomach growled, "Gu~".
Huang Ling was about to die of laughter.
I asked you to carry it. You have such a big appetite and you dare not add another bowl. Are you not full?
She let go, and the two of them tiptoed to the kitchen to find something to eat.
It’s not convenient to light the fire again, but there are cold steamed buns that can be eaten even when they are not hot.
"How are you going to explain to your aunt tomorrow when she finds out the steamed buns are missing?" Zhou Huaiyi asked worriedly.
"Why should I explain? It was obviously you who ate it secretly because you were hungry. I didn't eat it. What does it have to do with me?" Huang Ling took a step back.
"Ah! Tell me quickly that you are just acting for me like everyone runs away when disaster strikes, it's not real." Zhou Huaiyi swallowed a mouthful of steamed bun and said solemnly.
“Hahahahahaha!”
"Shh~!" Zhou Huaiyi made a gesture to keep quiet.
The two sat on a small chair in the kitchen. Huang Ling watched Zhou Huaiyi swallow three steamed buns, and then decided to help him take the responsibility of eating one.
The four stayed in Changzhou for three days.
Before Huang Ling and the others left, Pengfei saw that Tunan had gone to Changzhou and it was boring for him to be alone at home, so he decided to go to the alley and play with Dongzhe for two days and then go back after Tunan came back.
He asked these elders one by one, and Zhuang Chaoying had no problem with it. Huang Ling and Song Ying also agreed.
Huang Ling asked him to eat and follow Song Ying, and sleep at Huang Ling's house at night.
In the end, Pengfei didn't sleep at Huang Ling's place either. The two little brothers were reluctant to separate, so they played together during the day and slept in the same bed at night.
Song Ying and Lin Wufeng were in the inner room, listening to the two children outside laughing and sometimes screaming, and they laughed:
"Everyone says Lin Dongzhe is a flying monkey, but I think Pengfei is even more powerful, he's like the Monkey King!"
Lin Wufeng nodded: "I think so, but Dongzhe has no brothers or sisters, so it's really good to have these companions. Look, Tunan is a good big brother, Pengfei is a good brother, and Xiaoting is a good sister."
"You're not wrong, it's true." Song Ying liked these three children from the bottom of her heart.
After Pengfei went to the alley, Zhuang Chaoying was the only one left at home.
Since their last quarrel, Zhu Xiuyu has never brought him food again.
Zhuang Chaoying was inexplicably panicked.
