"Dad, Mom, our third son has come to pick us up with his girlfriend and the Yuqing brothers," Sheng Xiping said to his parents, pointing into the distance.
"You called the third brother? Oh dear, that bear crap, how did he manage to alarm the Wu family? We should be the ones visiting the Wu family."
Sheng Liancheng was completely stunned when he saw the person opposite him.
"I didn't call the third brother." In fact, Sheng Xiping was also confused.
Before leaving, he didn't call the capital. He thought that after arriving here, he would take a day to visit the Wu family with his parents.
By the way, I'll discuss company matters with Wu Yucheng and ask him to head south back to the company as soon as possible to take charge.
"I guess it was my second brother and the others who made the call." After thinking about it, Sheng Xiping could roughly guess.
It seems that Liu Yuhe contacted Wu Yucheng at some point, and then Wu Yucheng notified Sheng Xikang.
"This is a mess."
Sheng Liancheng sighed, but what could he say when they had already come to pick him up? The group could only walk towards the other side.
Sheng Xikang and Wu Yuhua and the others also came over to greet them.
As soon as the two sides met, Sheng Xikang quickly introduced them, "Dad, Mom, this is my girlfriend Yuhua, and these two are Yuhua's brothers."
"Yuhua, these are my parents, and those two are my twin sisters."
"Hello, Uncle. Hello, Aunt." Wu Yuhua and her two siblings, Wu Yuqing and Wu Yuqing, hurried forward to greet Sheng Liancheng and his wife.
Sheng Yunfei and Sheng Yunfang also came over and met Wu Yuhua, Wu Yuqing and the other two.
"Uncle, Auntie, let's not talk here, it's too cold. My parents are already waiting at home, let's go to my house for a while."
Wu Yucheng gently supported Sheng Liancheng as they started to walk forward. "We brought a car, let's just get in."
"Yu Cheng, wait a moment."
Sheng Xiping grabbed Wu Yucheng, then glanced at his own group of people and said.
"Well, let's find a place to settle down first, and then we'll go to your place."
Anyone who travels frequently knows that trains are actually quite dirty, with lots of coal dust.
Moreover, there are many people out at this time, and it's chaotic, making it easy to encounter thieves.
Therefore, when going out, it's generally best not to dress too nicely; if you're dressed in tattered and inconspicuous clothes, you're less likely to be targeted.
The Sheng family members weren't dressed in rags, but they were all wearing old clothes that looked rather rustic.
Going to the Wu family like this would be a disgrace to Sheng Xikang and Wu Yuhua.
That's why Sheng Xiping said that they should find a place to settle down first, and at the very least, Sheng Liancheng and his wife should change their clothes and tidy up a bit. This is also a sign of respect for the Wu family.
Although Wu Yucheng didn't quite understand what Sheng Xiping meant, he always listened to Sheng Xiping, and this time was no exception.
"The accommodations have been arranged. Let's go, let's take Uncle and Aunt to their hotel first."
After saying that, Wu Yucheng gestured for them to follow, leading Sheng Liancheng and his wife out of the station and to where they had parked their car.
Wu Yuqing and Wu Yucheng can both drive, so they didn't need a driver today; the two brothers drove two jeeps over.
So the two brothers started the car and took the Sheng family to a hotel that wasn't exactly cheap.
Upon arrival, the hotel staff were very polite and didn't ask for any referral letters; they simply processed my check-in.
Sheng Xiping wanted double rooms. Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen shared a room, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei shared a room, and Sheng Xiping shared a room by himself.
The hotel staff led everyone upstairs, found their rooms, and handed the room keys to Sheng Xiping.
"Dad, Mom, wash your faces, tidy up, and change your clothes. We're going to the Wu family's house later."
After accompanying his parents into the room, Sheng Xiping gave them some instructions.
"Okay, okay, you should go back and tidy up too. It won't look good if we're all dusty and dirty on our first visit."
Zhang Shuzhen understood what her son meant and nodded repeatedly.
Sheng Xiping checked the room thoroughly to make sure there were no problems before returning to his own room, washing his face, and changing his clothes.
Everyone worked quickly and finished tidying up in no time.
Sheng Liancheng changed into the thin woolen coat and woolen overcoat that his son had bought for him, and wore the leather shoes that his son had also bought for him.
He must have just shaved; with this sprucing up, he could easily pass for a retired cadre.
Zhang Shuzhen also changed into new clothes, just like Sheng Liancheng, wearing a purplish-red thin woolen coat underneath and a dark green herringbone woolen overcoat.
Zhang Shuzhen's hair must have been dampened and combed before being secured with a black hair clip, which revealed the gold earrings on her ears.
And you know what? After all that styling, she doesn't look like a housewife from some remote mountain village at all.
Sheng Xiping himself didn't care; he could just change into any clothes.
Needless to say, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei are young women in their early twenties who, with a little grooming, are enough to amaze many people.
"Let's go downstairs and hurry up to the Wu family. We shouldn't let them think we're arrogant."
Sheng Xiping was carrying a few things and smiled at his parents and sister.
The original plan was to arrive in the capital this afternoon, rest for a night, and then visit the Wu family tomorrow morning, which would be in accordance with custom.
But the Wu family had already come to pick them up, so they couldn't postpone it to tomorrow. They had no choice but to hurry over so as not to keep the Wu family waiting.
The family went downstairs and met up with the people waiting below.
Upon seeing the Sheng family's attire, Wu Yuqing finally understood why Sheng Xiping had said they needed to settle down first.
To be honest, the Sheng family members all have pretty good looks and demeanor, unlike the mountain people Wu Yuqing had in mind.
Upon closer reflection, it makes perfect sense. How could a family in a remote mountain village possibly raise four college students? And how could they possibly raise a prodigy like Sheng Xiping?
