"It's okay." Bai Ruozhen smiled, "Mom, I believe him."
Li Qiulan sighed, "I don't know who your eldest sister looks like."
"I don't know." Bai Ruozhen answered honestly.
The meal was almost ready, and Bai Jiansheng and Bai Liqiang came back together.
When they found Bai Ruozhen back, both of them were very happy, especially Bai Liqiang. He and Bai Ruozhen had been communicating with each other for the past six months, and the relationship between the two siblings was very good.
Bai Liqiang gave Bai Ruozhen a wink, and the brother and sister smiled in tacit understanding.
Bai Jiansheng walked in and saw a stranger. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Who is..."
Without waiting for Bai Ruozhen to introduce him, Bai Ruoxin said, "Dad, this is Comrade Gu Changqing."
Bai Ruozhen raised his eyebrows. Oh, he even remembered to call Gu Changqing. It seemed that he had eavesdropped a lot in the inner room at that time.
Bai Jiansheng glanced at her and asked, "Did you bring it back?"
Bai Ruoxin blushed and was about to speak when she heard Bai Ruoyun say quickly, "This was brought by my second sister. He is our second brother-in-law."
"Hello, uncle." Gu Changqing stood up and called out with a smile.
Bai Jiansheng looked at him, nodded, and said with a smile, "Sit down." As long as it wasn't brought back by the eldest daughter, it would be fine.
Bai Ruozhen introduced him again, "Brother Changqing, this is my eldest brother Bai Liqiang, we are twins, a boy and a girl."
Gu Changqing glanced at Bai Liqiang and found that the two looked not much alike. Bai Liqiang was not as good-looking as his girlfriend, so he nodded and greeted him. Bai Liqiang also sweetly called him "second brother-in-law", which made Gu Changqing very happy.
However, Bai Jiansheng was unhappy when he saw the younger ones in the family calling him "second brother-in-law" all the time. Why did they call him "second brother-in-law" when nothing had happened yet? His daughter's marriage must have his consent.
Li Qiulan called out from the kitchen, "Set the table."
"Got it." Bai Liqiang responded and quickly put the round table standing by the wall. Bai Lishan also came over on tiptoe with a rag to wipe the table.
The food was served and the whole family sat around it. Gu Changqing mainly tried to get close to Bai Jiansheng, Bai Liqiang and Li Qiulan, saying a lot of nice things without making people think he was slick. After the meal, Bai Jiansheng and Li Qiulan had a higher impression of him.
After dinner, Bai Jiansheng and Bai Liqiang had to go to work. They talked for a while and then went to work. Before leaving, they even made an appointment with Gu Changqing to have dinner together in the evening.
There was no reason for Gu Changqing to refuse, so he attentively sent the father and son downstairs before returning.
When he went upstairs, he ran into Aunt Wang, who looked at him scrutinizingly and asked, "Young man, are you from Yancheng?"
Gu Changqing smiled and said, "Yes, auntie."
Aunt Wang curled her lips inwardly, thinking he was indeed a country boy. She deliberately asked, "I heard your place is quite poor?"
"Ah?" Gu Changqing was stunned for a moment, then said embarrassedly, "Yes, we are quite poor. For example, my family only eats meat four or five times a month. The rest of the time we can only eat sea cucumbers and fish caught from the sea."
"Tsk, who would believe that?" Aunt Wang looked unhappy and thought Gu Changqing was bragging. She rolled her eyes and walked upstairs quickly with her big butt twisted.
Gu Changqing went upstairs with his hands in his pockets and whistling, and then he saw Bai Ruoxin standing at the door.
Well, my good mood is gone.
Bai Ruoxin took a few steps towards him, lowered her head slightly, and said shyly, "Xiao Gu, I want to talk to you about something."
"Talk about something?" Gu Changqing said deliberately, "We're not familiar with each other. If you have anything to say, just talk to my boyfriend."
After saying that, Gu Changqing walked around her and went straight into the door.
Bai Ruozhen was sitting in the room and saw him come in. He asked quietly, "Did Bai Ruoxin stop you at the door?"
Gu Changqing looked at her aggrievedly, "Yes, you are pretending to be shy. Do you think I can forget her tantrum?"
Bai Ruozhen grinned, "Come on, I'll take you to the guesthouse."
The two of them took the bag that Gu Changqing had packed and said to Li Qiulan, "Mom, I'll take him to the guesthouse first."
The place at home is small, so we can only go to the guesthouse.
Li Qiulan agreed and sent them out, "Remember to come back for dinner tonight." She had been quite unhappy about this marriage, but the child was so talkative at the dinner table that she became envious and thought he was a good kid. And the child's father seemed quite satisfied too.
The two of them responded and left. When going downstairs, Bai Ruozhen looked back and met Bai Ruoxin's angry eyes.
Bai Ruozhen deliberately smiled brightly, which made Bai Ruoxin so angry that she stood there and stomped her feet.
"I think your parents like me quite a lot." Gu Changqing said proudly.
Bai Ruozhen glanced at him and said, "Do you know what my mother said to me when I first got home?"
"He must be praising my good looks." Gu Changqing said shamelessly.
Bai Ruozhen looked at him sympathetically and said, "Brother Changqing, my mother has been telling me repeatedly that she doesn't agree with this marriage."
Gu Changqing stood there and didn't move, "Why?"
Bai Ruozhen suppressed his laughter and said deliberately, "My mother said that the delicious cakes far away are not as good as the steamed buns nearby. They want to use their connections to get me back to the city."
"What?" Gu Changqing's face turned dark.
