Meet the parents



Meet the parents

The child is still confused.

Grandma Yu's house is already bustling with activity.

There was a mushy cuttlefish and pork tripe soup simmering in the kitchen stew pot, and Yu Shu's uncle Yu Gang was stir-frying beef over high heat in front of the stove.

My aunt Li Lianghua was cutting the cooked pork elbows bought from the market, while my uncle and aunt took a stool and sat in front of the plastic tub to clean the mantis shrimps.

The two of them worked quite efficiently, so Grandma Yu felt relieved and made a phone call to ask the restaurant downstairs to cook the dishes she ordered immediately.

It was at this time that Yu Shu's family came in. Their home was farther away, and they usually had less time to spend together, but Yu Shu was very close to her grandmother.

The old lady was in good health and often walked from Hexi District to bring food to Yu Shu. One month before the college entrance examination, she brought food to Yu Shu every day.

Although, I did just average in the final exam.

Grandma Yu hung up the phone, wiped her hands, and took out a photo from her pocket.

"Xiaoyu, come and see your uncle."

Yu Shu was surprised. She had no recollection of the first time she met her uncle.

I looked up at my parents and it was obvious that they also had only a vague understanding of the matter.

The man was of elegant appearance, about thirty-five or thirty-six. Grandma Yu was obviously very satisfied with her son-in-law and told Yu Shu about the news she had secretly heard.

My aunt was born in 1972. She repeated her grade three times and finally became the only college student among the Yu family's siblings. After graduation, she successfully got a job at Spring City University of Finance and Economics and also studied for a master's degree while working.

Working too hard at school and work resulted in no progress in love.

The girls in the same batch as her in the family compound all became mothers of two children, and even the younger brother of the Yu family, who was younger than her, had a seven-year-old child.

Although Grandma Yu was not anxious at first, she became anxious after hearing too much gossip in the family compound.

Because of this, she was particularly concerned about the man her aunt was going to bring to meet him, and she went to his workplace and home to inquire many times before she felt relieved.

Yu Hua and Qin Wan went to help in the kitchen after hearing this, leaving the two children alone to discuss their new uncle with Grandma Yu. Grandma Yu continued, "Your uncle-in-law studied abroad and teaches mathematics at Spring City University."

When Yu Sheng heard her uncle was a math teacher, she looked unhappy and shook her head like a rattle. Math teachers were simply the scariest creatures in the school. She was usually fearless, but when she saw the math teacher, she would just slink around the corner, not daring to say a word.

Grandma Yu tapped her granddaughter's head and tempted her, "With your uncle, you can get a big red envelope every Chinese New Year. Don't you really want a red envelope?"

"It's a red envelope. I can buy a lot of Mei Yang Yang stickers."

The power of children’s idols is strong, Yu Shu said.

Yu Sheng's expression changed, and he smiled hesitantly: "Yes..."

No child can resist the temptation of spending a big red envelope.

In fact, this uncle-in-law was indeed very generous. Even when Yu Shu was 30 years old, he still gave her a red envelope.

On the other side, the generous "brother-in-law" was listening to the shopping guide's advice in the mall and choosing gifts for each member of the Yu family.

Yuqin pointed at the wine the salesperson had brought and said, "We don't want this. No one in my family drinks much."

He Renze smiled and said, "If you don't want it, then get some other ones."

Cordyceps, bird's nest and donkey-hide gelatin for the adults, and silver bracelets for the two children. It was almost twelve o'clock when we finished choosing everything.

The white Honda was parked in the family compound, attracting a lot of onlookers.

Nowadays, not many people own cars. Although this car is not a luxury brand, the old man doesn’t understand these things.

Especially those elderly people living alone on the first floor love to join in the fun.

Grandma Yu is a tight-lipped person and never lets slip anything about her daughter's love life.

So when he suddenly saw the unmarried daughter of the Yu family, who was in her thirties, getting out of the shiny new car, the talkative Mr. Wang couldn't sit still. His brows furrowed, and he stared at He Renze intently: "Xiaoqin, is this your partner?"

Uncle Wang's dream was dashed. His son had been divorced for several years and couldn't find a partner for remarriage. How could Yuqin, an unwanted old girl, end up with a man who looked good and had good conditions?

What about his son?

After he finished speaking, he stuck his head out and said, "You bought so many things. You're really a rich man."

Yuqin was not a person with a good temper, and she was too lazy to reply to Uncle Wang after hearing what he said.

In the corridor, she thought of this and warned, "Everyone else in this family compound is very nice, but Uncle Wang is a bit of a chatterbox. Next time you come here, pay him less attention."

He Renze immediately became serious, nodded heavily, and said, "I'll listen to you. I understand."

Yuqin gave a few more instructions and introduced everyone in the family.

Yu Shu heard two footsteps getting closer in the corridor and guessed that it must be her aunt and her two friends.

"Welcome, welcome! A warm welcome."

Before Yu Sheng could react, Yu Shu opened the door and said in a high-pitched voice, "Aunt, let me help you carry your things."

Yu Sheng ran over while pulling up his pants, wanting to pick up things too.

Knowing that the two little ones would be coveting the gifts, Yuqin handed them the two bracelets she had prepared long ago and said, "Your uncle-in-law bought these for you."

Yu Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up, especially bright on her tanned face. She was very excited: "For us? Then I want to wear it now."

Yu Shu was at a loss for words and helped Yu Sheng open the box.

Grandma Yu poured the last of the restaurant's dishes into a bowl, walked over from the dining room, and said reservedly, "Xiao He is here."

"You're here, but why bring so many things?" The aunt took the gift boxes from the two and scolded them.

The sofas were spread out around the couple, filled with people waiting to ask questions to the new son-in-law.

Yu Shu hugged her mother's hand, and the two of them sat back on the sofa, whispering, "A trial by three judges."

That makes sense.

Qin Wan laughed.

The adults in the Yu family were all trying to test the temperament of their future brother-in-law in a roundabout way, chatting about everything.

He Renze had been abroad for seven or eight years and was not a native of Spring City, so he was really stumped by many of the questions he was asked.

At this time, Yuqin quickly spoke up: "Mom, let's eat. We are hungry."

Yu Shu knew that her uncle was a good and reliable man, so she jokingly said, "We can't wait any longer for Uncle's specialty dish. Let's eat it while it's hot!"

The round table was filled with dishes, many of which were stacked up.

Except for the grandfather who passed away early and the eldest cousin who is studying in college away, all the members of the Yu family are together.

Yu Shu was eating vigorously at the table, while Yu Sheng ate slowly, taking small bites at a time. She said, "Sister, you have such a good appetite today?"

"Look at how many people are here today and how many dishes there are. Every family has to take the leftovers home." Yu Shu replied in a low voice.

Yu Sheng hurriedly counted and found that there were thirty dishes. No child liked to eat leftovers, especially leftovers that had been reheated several times. Yu Sheng felt a chill when he thought about having to eat leftovers every day when he got home from school. "Then I'll give everyone more dishes."

Yu Sheng used a shared spoon to serve a lot of food to each adult. Xu Ying thought her daughter had changed, "Xiao Sheng has grown up."

Everyone was praising him, but only Yu Shu knew what was going on in this guy's mind, so she held back her laughter while eating.

After the meal, except for Yu Shu, every adult's bowl was empty, so Yu Sheng would fill it up, just like the little palace maids serving food. Among them, her future uncle was served the most food, and he was burping when he left...

After the meal, they still packed up some leftovers, which were much less than expected. When Yu Sheng left, he secretly made a "V" sign to Yu Shu.

Yu Shu happily shared her new bracelet with Qin Wan on the motorcycle seat.

She couldn't wait to see her cousin being born, and she would give her a silver bracelet when the time came.

If there is no error, my sister-in-law and her husband will have their wedding on National Day this year.

After eating and drinking, my mind calmed down.

Yu Hua finally expressed his opinion of his brother-in-law in front of his family.

"Although I think Xiao He is good today, I can't be too confident. They still need to see each other more and get to know each other for at least a few months."

Don't listen to what Yu Hua said. When he pursued Qin Wan, he fell in love at first sight and wanted to marry her the next day.

So in this case, it's just talk.

Qin Wan thought of the car they had just seen and pinched Yu Hua's waist. "When are we going to buy a car? The motorcycle is almost too full."

When she first bought this motorcycle, Yu Shu was still a little girl, sitting on the back seat in her arms.

Now that the children have grown up, one motorcycle is obviously not enough.

The three of them huddled together and sweated.

She smoothed away Yu Shu's bangs that were stuck together due to sweat, and from the angle she looked down, she could clearly see Yu Shu's little face as she looked up.

During the rapid development of puberty, girls gradually become more beautiful.

No matter how Qin Wan looked at her, she felt that the girl was particularly beautiful now, like a beautiful girl in a photo album.

Yu Shu looked up to face the light. The sky was blocked by the leaves of the sycamore tree. Tiny, bright pieces of light sprinkled on her face. Her skin was as transparent as white porcelain, and the curve of her squinting smile was fresh and pure.

Qin Wan lowered her head and kissed Yu Shu on the forehead, her eyes full of pride.

Yu Shu's eyes became bright and she accepted her mother's kiss somewhat suddenly.

Yu Hua pondered for a moment before replying to Qin Wan, "Let's wait for the factory to start purchasing cars. They'll be making large purchases in the next few months, so there will be discounts then."

"By the way, you have some free time during the summer vacation, so why not get a driver's license?"

The speaker may not intend it, but the listener may take it seriously.

After hearing this, Yu Shu silently shed tears for herself.

In her previous life, after the college entrance examination, Yu Hua also asked her to learn to drive, but unfortunately, she failed the third test three times.

I finally got my driver's license, but I hardly ever drive because I stay at home too much.

Occasionally, I participate in offline activities by taking the subway or taking a taxi.

The skill of driving has completely disappeared, and I have to start all over again in this life. It’s painful to think about it.

[The system can copy the driving school examination room for the host, just spend 3 attribute points]

Yu Shu refused without even thinking.

"Sharpening your sword before a battle is a good idea, even if it's not quick, it will shine. We'll talk about it when we get there."

"By the way, you came out to talk. Has your memory been cleared?"

Yu Shu remembered being ejected from the space in the morning and questioned the system.

The system confidently introduces:

[I just went to the headquarters to apply for the maximum memory. The host no longer needs to worry about the system lagging. In the future, the host can have 100,000 NPCs online to paint with you at the same time. It’s no problem at all.]

The system's voice became more and more proud. Yu Shu could even imagine that if the system were a puppy, its tail would probably be used as a propeller.

After praising the system, I prepared to go home and study the color class.

"Then I want a particularly beautiful outdoor environment, with NPCs of all ages and genders, and they have to be very good-looking..."

Knowing that the system had enough memory, Yu Shu made a bold request.

If she had known from the beginning that the system could upgrade its memory, she would have let the system arrange various gorgeous, dark, classical... class styles for her.

It’s not too late!
