Qian Mao nodded and said to Zhang Muyao, "Yaoyao, let's go to the next carriage to see your uncle."
Although Zhang Muyao was a little shy, she nodded, after all, this was the first elder she had met in her boyfriend's family.
Qian Mao led Zhang Muyao, carrying their two backpacks, to the next carriage.
Jin Kuohao was lying on the lower bunk when he saw Qian Mao come over. He was about to say a few words like an elder, but when he saw Zhang Muyao being pulled by him, he immediately sat up and quickly put on his shoes.
Qian Mao couldn't help but smile when he saw Jin Kuohao's expression. His uncle still liked to act like an elder in front of the younger generation.
Qian Mao smiled and said to Zhang Muyao, "Yaoyao, this is my uncle, Jin Kuohao."
Zhang Muyao immediately greeted him in a generous and open manner: "Hello, Uncle."
Jin Kuohao rubbed his hands together, somewhat at a loss, and said, "Hello, hello, hello."
This is a city girl! She looks so elegant and beautiful. The girls in the countryside can't compare. No wonder Lao San doesn't want to find a partner in the countryside. This city girl is so pleasing to the eye.
Qian Mao introduced with a smile: "Uncle, this is my girlfriend, Zhang Mengyao, from Shanghai."
Jin Kuohao immediately smiled and said, "Well, Third Brother's girlfriend, please sit down." He thought about where he had just been lying and realized he had taken off his shoes, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
Seeing Qian Yin sitting in the back seat, he glared at her and said, "Qian Yin, hurry up and give up your seat for the lady."
Qian Yin was taken aback, not expecting to go so far and be criticized, but he still stood up and said, "Please sit down, please sit down."
Zhang Muyao felt a little embarrassed, but seeing Qian Yin's attentiveness and Qian Mao's encouragement, she sat down.
Qian Mao sat down on Jin Kuohao's bed without any ceremony. The group chatted, but Qian Mao's hands were not idle. He grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds that Jin Kuohao had brought on the train and began to peel them one by one, chatting with his brothers. After peeling only a small handful, he very skillfully handed them to Zhang Muyao, who blushed and reached out to take them.
This series of actions stunned the other guys, who thought that he had gained experience from being single for many years and observing other people's relationships.
Is this really the same single guy from back then? He's so sweet in love now, it's almost sickeningly so.
Zhang Muyao knew, of course, that the purpose of her trip to Guangzhou was to find her future sister-in-law. It was said that this sister-in-law was exceptionally capable, and that the wool coats, short-sleeved shirts, suits, and other items that Qian Mao sold in Shanghai were all sourced by her sister-in-law in Guangzhou.
Her mother also bought her father a suit. Although it looked very nice and her father liked it, he felt that the black suit was a bit too formal. However, after some time, Qian Mao gave her father a gray-blue suit.
My father looked even more dashing and energetic in this suit, which he loved so much that he would wear it to every important meeting.
Many people were incredibly surprised when they learned that the dress was a gift from their future son-in-law, because they also wanted to buy a dress in that color, but none of the department stores in Shanghai had that color or style.
After hearing complaints from other colleagues, Zhang Haotian talked to Zhang Muyao about it. Zhang Muyao then told him that the suit was custom-made by Qian Mao from Qian Duoduo based on his body shape.
From then on, Zhang Muyao had a very deep impression of Qian Duoduo. She heard a lot about Qian Duoduo from Qian Mao, which made her even more curious about him.
That girl who was incredibly lucky from a young age, who always cared for her brothers, and who was pampered by her family, worked hard in silence while also helping her brothers improve.
Qian Mao's older brothers were able to take the college entrance examination because she sent them study materials. Moreover, Qian Mao was able to go to the Party School for further studies not only because of Mayor Lu's recommendation, but also because of Qian Duoduo's encouragement.
And the fact that he later refused his father's invitation to pursue further studies at university was also an idea suggested by Qian Duoduo. All of this added a touch of mystery to the young girl in Zhang Muyao's eyes.
So when Qian Mao went to Guangzhou, she suggested going with him, wanting to meet this young lady she had long admired.
She hadn't expected that before meeting the young girl, she would first meet Qian Mao's uncle and his brothers. Watching them chat was really interesting; their thick Northeastern accents and hearty laughter were very different from the refined men she usually met.
At this moment, Qian Mao was someone she had never seen before. His innocent smile and the harmless jokes between the brothers made her feel that she was seeing another side of him.
Because it would take several days by train to get to Guangzhou, Qian Mao and Zhang Muyao returned to their carriage at night and found a middle-aged man and a little boy lying on their berths.
Qian Mao stepped forward and said to the middle-aged man, "Hello, this is our berth."
The middle-aged man raised his eyelids slightly and said, "You think it's yours just because you say so? I could say it's mine. I've been here all afternoon and you haven't come over once."
Qian Mao didn't argue with him and turned to leave with Zhang Muyao.
The man chuckled at the two of them, not paying them any attention.
Not long after, the flight attendant came over with Qian Mao and Zhang Muyao and asked the middle-aged man and the young boy next to him, "Take out your tickets."
