Chapter 464 Junior Girl Becomes Brother's Wife
"It's probably on New Year's Eve, when we went to wish our parents a Happy New Year, and we sent these two girls off to study."
Sheng Xiping was both amused and exasperated by his two daughters' actions.
These two girls learn so fast! They're only two years old, and they've already learned to kowtow and ask for New Year's money?
"Yes, the little one learns quickly, that's good." Wang Chunxiu smiled and took out a red envelope from her pocket, stuffed some money into it, and then gave it to Sheng Xinqi.
Sheng Xinqi accepted the red envelope with both hands, bowed to Wang Chunxiu, and muttered, "Happy New Year."
Little kids are adorable no matter what they do.
Especially the two little girls from the Sheng family, who are fair-skinned and chubby, with their plump little faces and chubby little hands, are simply adorable.
Of course, we can't just admire the younger one; there are also the Sheng Xinhua brothers.
As grandparents, you have to treat them equally. So Zhou Mingyuan quickly took out red envelopes from his pocket and gave them to his two grandsons.
"Thank you, Grandpa! Thank you, Grandma!" The two boys happily accepted the red envelopes and ran off to play.
Zhou Qinglan took off her two daughters' coats, and the two children played on the kang (a heated brick bed), while the adults chatted together.
"Dad, where are my older brother and Qingyue? Why didn't they come back for the New Year?"
Sheng Xiping looked around but didn't see Zhou Qingyang's family or Zhou Qingyue, so he found it strange and asked.
"Oh, your older brother originally said he was going to come back for the New Year and was about to leave, but he was assigned to some mission, so he didn't come back for the New Year this year."
Qingyue arrived home on the 27th of the twelfth lunar month and spent the New Year at home.
"Well, he went to the bus station to pick up his girlfriend. He should be back in a bit," Zhou Mingyuan explained with a smile.
Zhou Qingyue graduated from university last summer with a degree in mechanical engineering and was assigned to work at FAW.
"Oh, Qingyue has a boyfriend? Where is he from? Oh dear, we're late. If we had known Qingyue's boyfriend was coming, we would have had Xiping drive to pick him up!"
Zhou Qinglan was taken aback when she heard this. She, the older sister, had no idea that her younger brother had a girlfriend.
"Qingyue's boyfriend is from the county. He went to the same school as you and was assigned to teach at the High School Affiliated to the Normal University after graduation."
My rascal is so tight-lipped; he hasn't told anyone, but they've actually been dating for two years.
So yesterday, I sent him to the county to wish that girl's parents a Happy New Year.
"Look, we agreed that the young lady would come over to our house today to visit and get acquainted with the place."
When the topic of her son's girlfriend came up, Wang Chunxiu beamed and pulled a photo out of the drawer, showing it to Zhou Qinglan like a precious treasure.
"Well, this girl, what do you think? She's alright looking, isn't she?"
When Wang Chunxiu mentioned that the girl was from Northeast Normal University, Zhou Qinglan was quite surprised. Upon seeing the photo, she exclaimed in surprise.
"Han Manxue? How come it's her? Oh, these two have started dating behind my back."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingyuan and the others were stunned. "What? You know that girl?"
"Yeah, in the second semester of my sophomore year, a freshman named Han Manxue was assigned to our dorm. This is the girl."
Zhou Qinglan pointed at the girl in the photo and said decisively.
"No wonder. I was wondering why Qingyue kept coming to our school back then. Turns out he wasn't there to see me; he was chasing after girls."
Zhou Qinglan looked like she suddenly realized something. Luckily, she had thought her younger brother was just missing her and kept going to see her.
So this brat has his eye on her roommate and is using visiting his sister as an excuse to pursue her.
The Normal University and the Institute of Technology are right next to each other, and there is a gate connecting the two schools for easy travel between them.
Many male students from the university of technology look for girlfriends at the university of education.
At the time, Zhou Qinglan thought about introducing someone to her younger brother, but Zhou Qingyue firmly refused, saying that he wanted to focus on his studies.
As it turns out, this brat spoke righteously and sternly, but he already had a goal in mind.
"When they come back, I'm going to give them a good talking to."
Zhou Qinglan got angry, rolled up her sleeves, and was about to teach Zhou Qingyue and the others a lesson.
"No way! Your brother finally brought a girlfriend home. You'd scare her away if you did that," Wang Chunxiu quickly stopped her.
"Hey, since you know this girl, tell me, what's she like?"
Wang Chunxiu didn't know her youngest son had a girlfriend. When Zhou Qingyue came home for the New Year, he brought up Sheng Xikang's engagement during their conversation.
Then Wang Chunxiu casually mentioned that Sheng Xikang was only a year older than Zhou Qingyue, and that they were already engaged and about to get married, while Zhou Qingyue's partner was still nowhere to be found.
Then, Zhou Qingyue finally told the truth: they had been dating for several years but had never told her family.
Wang Chunxiu was so angry that she almost beat her youngest son.
Then, after making some inquiries, they learned that the woman was from the county. So, they asked Zhou Qingyue to go and wish her parents a Happy New Year, and to invite the girl over to their home for a meeting.
Upon hearing that her daughter knew that girl, Wang Chunxiu became even more anxious and quickly inquired about the girl's character and personality.
"He's a nice person, speaks gently, is quite clean, and gets along very well with the people in our dorm."
"I heard her say that her father is a county official and her mother is a teacher," Zhou Qinglan said after thinking for a moment.
Wang Chunxiu nodded. She had already heard about the woman's family background from her son.
All things considered, the two families are a good match, and most importantly, they live in the same place.
In the future, we can come back together for holidays and festivals, and there won't be any conflict about whether to go back to the wife's family or the husband's family. This is exactly what Wang Chunxiu wants.
