Chapter 454: Feelings Know No Region
Su Jiaojiao immediately realized that her second uncle was here to matchmake for her, and she felt very unhappy. She felt that her mother did not really understand her feelings for Lu Jingyou.
In Chen Guilan's eyes, there was only the question of whether they were suitable or not. She never thought about the feelings between them at all. Feelings knew no boundaries.
But she still gave her mother a big hug: "Mom, I really missed you."
"You're finally back." Chen Guilan's eyes turned red as she looked at her daughter whom she had been missing day and night.
Su Jiaojiao greeted her second uncle, second aunt, and Chen Juan warmly, and even took out a handful of chocolates from her bag and gave them to Xiao Suisui: "Suisui, do you know my sister?"
Xiao Suisui had grown taller. She was wearing a red cotton skirt, black leggings, and had a small braid on her head. She tilted her head to look at Su Jiaojiao, then looked at the chocolate in her hand, and hesitated and stepped back: "I don't know her."
"This is the KFC that your sister bought you. Did you forget?" Chen Juan reminded her. "This is the chocolate your sister gave you. Take it!"
"Thank you, sister!" Xiao Suisui happily accepted the chocolate and returned to her second aunt obediently, saying in a baby voice, "Sister is so pretty."
"Little flatterer." Chen Guilan was amused and asked Cai Ting to sit down. "You must be tired from the journey. Let's eat!" "This is my good friend Cai Ting." Su Jiaojiao introduced Cai Ting to her second uncle and others. Cai Ting followed Su Jiaojiao in calling her second uncle and second aunt. Cai Ting and Chen Juan knew each other, greeted each other, and sat down to eat.
Chen Guilan had already prepared the meal and placed it in a bowl on the table, fearing that it would get cold.
Perhaps because Cai Ting was there, Chen Guisheng didn't say anything. He just asked about the road conditions. Su Jiaojiao said that the road was smooth and the two of them took turns driving and were not tired.
Chen Guisheng said that was great.
Xu Yue'e said that Su Jiaojiao was getting more and more beautiful, and Su Jiaojiao said shamelessly: "I was already very beautiful."
Chen Juan covered her mouth and laughed.
Xiao Sui Sui also covered her mouth and laughed.
Cai Ting was amused by them and laughed along with them. She was the type who laughed out loud.
After laughing, he realized that he was too bold. He lowered his head to eat tactfully, and did not forget to whisper in Su Jiaojiao's ear: "Your cousin is more ladylike than you."
"That's right, but it's better than you." Su Jiaojiao retorted to her.
The two of them exchanged a few words before starting to eat. They had a bowl of instant noodles and some snacks on the way, but they didn't eat well.
The meals Chen Guilan cooked were so sumptuous that Su Jiaojiao loved them all.
Su Jiaojiao thought all the dishes were delicious. She ate two bowls of rice in a row and was so full.
Chen Guilan saw this and felt very distressed. She had lived in Jinyuan for so many days and knew that they had no time to cook and could not eat well.
Cai Ting and Chen Guilan had become familiar with each other and didn't treat her as an outsider, so she also ate a lot.
Including Chen Guisheng's family, Chen Guilan cooked twelve dishes, all of which were filled to the brim. There was some left after everyone finished eating, and the table was quite full.
"Guilan doesn't have a dog at home, so just eat the rest!" Xu Yue'e saw that there were still some leftovers and poked Chen Guisheng, "It's not worth reheating what's left."
Chen Guisheng frowned: "You mean, if I have a dog, I can't eat it?"
"Of course, are you going to snatch food from the dog?" Xu Yue'e looked at him with wide eyes, "It's precisely because there are no dogs that I let you eat."
Everyone burst into laughter.
This couple is so interesting.
Chen Guisheng actually scooped up all the remaining dishes on the plate and ate them in his bowl.
Things are different now. Before, he was embarrassed to eat like this, and other people could eat the leftover dishes as dinner.
He knew that his sister's family was well-off and had no shortage of leftovers. As soon as his daughter came back, they would definitely prepare delicious food for every meal, so he might as well clear out the leftovers!
The weather is not very good. It has become cloudy and looks like it is going to snow.
Cai Ting brought a lot of things with her, so Su Jiaojiao took her bags out of the trunk and asked her to drive back.
Cai Ting did not refuse and said that the car would be returned to her before the New Year.
There were so many things that Chen Guilan and Chen Juan had to run back and forth twice before they finished moving them. Xu Yue'e looked at the pile of cigarettes, alcohol, sugar and tea on the ground and was shocked: "Jingjiao, how much stuff did you buy back?"
"Mom, these were bought by Lu Jingyou. He's busy with work and won't be here before the New Year. He said he'll come over during the first month of the lunar year." Su Jiaojiao then said to Chen Guisheng and Xu Yue'e, "Second uncle, second aunt, these were bought by my boyfriend."
"Is it your boyfriend in the capital?" Chen Guisheng looked at the gifts with mixed feelings, then looked at Chen Guilan. Chen Guilan was a little embarrassed and smiled awkwardly, "To buy so many..."
"That's right." Su Jiaojiao nodded and answered Chen Guisheng's question, "When he comes in the first month of the lunar year, I'll bring him to the village to see you."
"Jiaojiao, are you really going to find someone from another place?" Xu Yue'e was not surprised, and it was obvious that she knew it too.
"What's wrong with being an outsider?" Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "Am I not also an outsider when I'm with them?"
"Jiaojiao, you've been hiding it so well that you didn't even tell us you had a boyfriend." Chen Juan was young after all, and her ideas were different from Chen Guisheng and the others. "When he gets married in the first month of the lunar year, you can bring him to our house. It just so happens that your brother-in-law already has a partner."
"Okay, I'll definitely go." Su Jiaojiao agreed readily.
"Jiao Jiao, actually, your second uncle..." Chen Guilan just started to speak, but Su Jiao Jiao interrupted her and said to Chen Juan while dragging her suitcase, "Sister, come to my room for a moment. I have a gift for you."
"What gift?" Chen Juan followed Su Jiaojiao into the bedroom. Su Jiaojiao opened the suitcase and took out a silk scarf for her. "This is for you. Does it look nice?"
She prepared this scarf for Lu Qingqing when she went to Lu Jingyou's house. Lu Qingqing was not at home that day, so she brought it back.
This pattern suits Chen Juan very well.
"It looks nice." Chen Juan immediately put it on her neck. The pattern was bright but not tacky. She touched it and it felt good. "It's quite expensive!"
"It's not too expensive, just over a hundred!" Su Jiaojiao told her the price without any other intention, just to let her know her feelings.
"Oh my god, it's so expensive..." Chen Juan carefully took off the scarf and returned it to Su Jiaojiao, "You should keep it for yourself!"
"I'm giving it to you, don't refuse it." Su Jiaojiao wrapped the scarf around her neck again, taught her how to tie it, and teased her, "Wear this scarf to your mother-in-law's house, and you'll be their most distinguished guest."
Chen Juan smiled sheepishly and asked Su Jiaojiao, "Is your boyfriend really coming during the Lunar New Year?"
"Of course it's true." Su Jiaojiao packed her suitcase and lay down on the bed. "You can't lie about this kind of thing. Besides, I wouldn't lie to you, no one else."
"You didn't tell me a single word before..." Chen Juan was shocked when she heard Chen Guilan say that Su Jiaojiao had a boyfriend, and felt that Su Jiaojiao shouldn't have kept it secret from her.
If her father hadn't wanted to introduce a boyfriend to Su Jiaojiao, Chen Guilan would have told the truth. She didn't know about this at all!
"We just knew each other before, and we didn't date, so how could I tell you?" Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "It's not too late to tell you now, right?"
"Tell me quickly, how did you two meet?" Chen Juan became interested.
