After eating, he wiped his mouth and smacked his lips, "It's definitely not the taste from where we come from. It tastes pretty good." No wonder this roast duck is a famous dish in the capital.
Su Qingyun smiled, "Dad, you and Mom are out and about playing every day anyway, so you can just come over often and eat as much as you can before we go back." Their family's current financial situation still allows them to enjoy roast duck as much as they want.
"That won't work." Su Aimin shook his head disapprovingly.
Su Qingyun thought her father thought it was too expensive, but...
"I've heard from your mother that there's more to Beijing than just roast duck. There's also things like braised pork, shabu-shabu mutton, noodles with soybean paste, and soy milk..." Su Aimin rattled off a long list of foods. "I have to try everything. I can't come here for nothing, right?"
Douzhi? Su Qingyun showed a somewhat subtle expression. Whether in her past life or this life, she really couldn't stand the taste. She wondered if her father could accept it?
After dinner, the family of three went to the department store, bought some things, and prepared to visit the Wu family. When they arrived at the gate of the family compound, Qin Ying directly identified herself to the sentry and showed him the letter of introduction. The Wu family had already informed the sentry, so when they arrived at the sentry, they directly checked the letter of introduction and whether there were any prohibited items before letting them in.
They walked to the door of the Wu family and knocked. It was working hours, and it was Xia Rong who opened the door. She went out and walked through the small garden in front. Before the gate was opened, she was stunned when she saw the three people.
"Yingzi, Qingyun." Xia Rong's voice was trembling with surprise. "Hurry, hurry, come in."
She opened the gate and said, "I received a letter a while ago that you were coming over. I didn't expect it to be so soon. I've been looking forward to it these past few days."
After the family decided to go north, Qin Ying sent a letter to the Wu family, so Xia Rong already knew that the whole family would come to the capital.
"Why did you bring so many things again? I told you, I don't need anything." Xia Rong said helplessly.
"You have everything you need, but you lack my love." Qin Ying said it so beautifully that Xia Rong didn't know what to say.
"Grandma Rong." Su Qingyun called her obediently.
"Good girl, good girl." Xia Rong touched her face lovingly. "Why do you feel like you've lost a little weight?"
"He hasn't lost weight, he's gained two taels of flesh." Su Qingyun was helpless. Would all grandmothers in the world think their children have lost weight after not seeing them for a while?
"Two ounces of meat is not enough. The child needs to be plump and rounder to look more blessed." Xia Rong disagreed, "Come inside first, let's talk inside."
The family followed him into the house and sat down in the living room.
"Aunt Rong." Qin Ying introduced Su Aimin with a smile on her face, "This is my wife, Su Aimin."
"Hello, Aunt Rong." Su Aimin greeted her immediately, his expression respectful but not overly fearful. "Last time, it was the mother and daughter who came to the capital. I didn't come. I heard from Ah Ying that you are an elder she is very close to. I should have come to visit you earlier. It's my fault."
Xia Rong looked at him, a little surprised. Before they came, she had already prepared herself mentally for Yingzi's lover to be a country bumpkin. After all, at that time, Yingzi had no relatives or friends there and wanted to find someone to rely on. She had already made the worst plan for what kind of person she might marry.
But unexpectedly, after seeing him, Xia Rong immediately overturned her previous idea. This man did not look like a country boy. He had a fair complexion and looked worthy of Yingzi. His temperament was not the usual simplicity and honesty of country boys. Instead, he was a bit shrewd and clever, but not calculating. It was a bit contradictory, yet strangely suitable.
Xia Rong smiled. She should have thought of it earlier. To be able to raise a child like Qingyun, the parents must be extraordinary people. It was just that her thinking was too limited.
"Hello, hello. I've heard Yingzi and the others mention you a long time ago, and I finally get to see you today." Xia Rong smiled amiably. "You actually came all the way here this time. You must stay for a while before going back. Have some fun and also spend some time with me, an old man."
"Of course, of course." Su Aimin nodded quickly.
Xia Rong looked at the wall clock and said, "It's this time now, and there aren't many vegetables left in the market. I have to call Old Wu and ask him to bring some vegetables back from the cafeteria."
"Don't bother, Aunt Rong, just eat something."
"That won't do. We have to give your family a proper welcome. If I had known earlier, I would have gone to the market and bought some more vegetables."
Xia Rong picked up the phone while mumbling.
