Because Lin Yumei had previously told her parents the time of her trip, she did not dare to stay at Yuan Fangguo's house for long after the trip. In the afternoon, Yuan Fangguo sent her to the gate of the community.
After Lin Yumei tiptoed into the house, she suddenly found that her parents were at home.
It seemed like she hadn't seen such a scene for a long time.
Lin Huajun and Wang Aifang sat on the sofa in silence. Lin Yumei glanced at them and suddenly became nervous.
Just as she was about to head towards the bedroom, Wang Aifang suddenly spoke.
"Yumei, did you go traveling with Yang Lu and the others?"
"Yeah." Lin Yumei answered subconsciously.
"But I met Yang Lu's parents yesterday, and they said she went to her grandfather's house." Wang Aifang said calmly.
Lin Huajun winked at his daughter.
"Later, Yang Lu didn't go."
"Really?" Wang Aifang looked at her daughter suspiciously.
"Really? Later I went to Mount Emei with my classmates. Didn't I bring some local specialties for you and dad?" Lin Yumei said as she sat down next to Wang Aifang.
"Ginseng for mother, and Bamboo Leaf Green Tea for father."
"How much did you buy it for?" Wang Aifang frowned.
"Emei ginseng is one hundred yuan per pound, and this box of bamboo leaf green tea is eighty."
"Is your ginseng worth so much? I went to the Chinese medicine store the other day and saw it was only a little over fifty. It's much better in both color and shape than the one you bought. Look, there are signs of decay here..." Wang Aifang scolded her daughter as she spoke. At the end, she smiled bitterly and said, "You're just like your father. You don't even know how to bargain when buying these things. You just let others take advantage of you."
Lin Yumei looked aggrieved, "Isn't this just me?"
Lin Huajun decisively stood on his daughter's side. "My daughter just bought something and suffered a little loss. You're making such a big deal out of it. Your child is filial to you. If she didn't have you in her heart, would she bring you something more expensive than the one she brought me? Isn't that right, my daughter?"
Lin Yumei nodded and took Lin Huajun's arm with an intimate look, "Dad still loves me the most."
"You have spoiled the child." Wang Aifang said to Lin Huajun bluntly.
"Daughters should be spoiled, right, baby?"
"Well, Dad is still reasonable." Lin Yumei said, hugging Lin Huajun's neck.
Wang Aifang glared at her daughter fiercely. "Don't change the subject. Tell me, who did you go to Mount Emei with this time?"
"My college roommates Yang Yang and the others."
"Why don't they go back home during the holidays?"
"Go back. Didn't I send them to the train station this afternoon? Is that why I just came back?"
"Really?" Wang Aifang still looked suspicious.
Lin Yumei nodded, "Of course, how about you give Yang Yang and the others a call someday?"
"I'm not that bored. Come with me to visit your grandma tomorrow and give her this ginseng while I'm at it."
"Don't you like them all? Why are you giving them to grandma?"
"You're the only one who talks too much." Wang Aifang glared at her daughter again.
"I'll tell grandma later."
“You dare…”
The mother and daughter were teasing each other, but in the end, Lin Yumei was ruthlessly suppressed by Wang Aifang.
…
The next day, Lin Yumei went to her grandmother's house with Wang Aifang, while Yuan Fangguo took Zhang Nan to the station to pick up her parents.
Zhang Nan's parents brought a lot of things in big and small bags. When they saw that their daughter also brought a tall and handsome young man, the old couple were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
"When did you agree on this?" Zhang's mother quietly pulled Zhang Nan aside and asked.
"Mom, what are you talking about? He is my student." Zhang Nan said speechlessly.
"What? He looks so mature, is he your student? How can a student drive himself? Are you not telling the truth to your mother? Don't worry, your father and I like this child from the bottom of our hearts."
"Mom, he really is my student." Zhang Nan was completely speechless. "This car belongs to his cousin. He helped me fix the lightbulb at home last time. I just thought since you and my dad are coming over today, I might as well treat him to dinner. I hope you don't think too much, okay? It would make him very embarrassed."
"So how old is he?"
"I won't tell you." Zhang Nan rolled his eyes at his mother.
"You kid." Zhang's mother was furious.
After returning home, Zhang Nan and his mother were busy in the kitchen. This time, the two elders brought a lot of cured meats from their hometown, including sausages, cured pork ribs, pork liver, and cured fish. Especially the sausages and cured pork ribs, some of them were cooked at home and then taken to their daughter's house, where they were steamed and eaten.
Yuan Fangguo sat in the living room and chatted with Zhang's father.
At first, Zhang's father also thought that Yuan Fangguo was his daughter's boyfriend. When he learned that he was not her boyfriend but a student, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Such a good boy, what a pity.
During the meal, Zhang's mother was very enthusiastic and kept asking Yuan Fangguo to pick up some food, which made Yuan Fangguo and Zhang Nan feel embarrassed.
"From now on, if our Nan Nan needs anything, we'll trouble you. Xiao Yuan, by the way, where do you work?" Zhang's mother asked with a sly look on her face.
This was the second time that Zhang's mother asked him which unit he worked in. People with some interest knew very well what Zhang's mother meant, that she was just asking questions unintentionally.
"Mom, Xiao Yuan is still a student."
Mother Zhang glared at her daughter with some dissatisfaction, then smiled amiably and said, "Student, when will you graduate?"
