Mei Bing thought Tengteng would be nervous.
However, Tengteng was not nervous at all; instead, he turned the tables on Mei Bing and said, "Go ahead and say it."
Mei Bing choked for a moment. However, she said, "Okay. Dad, Mom, he was spying on me."
"What?!" Mei Bing's father was already dissatisfied with Tengteng. Now, hearing Mei Bing say that Tengteng had spied on her, he immediately flew into a rage. "Are you a soldier?"
Mei Bing's mother looked at Tengteng in surprise, then at Mei Bing: "You two only met today?"
Tengteng: "Auntie, I'd like to have a private chat with you for a bit."
Mei Bing knew immediately that Tengteng was going to tell her mother how the two of them met. "Dad, Mom, I was just kidding." If her mother knew that she had gone to a secluded place to let loose, her mother would nag her to death. "We've known each other for a long time."
Tengteng looked at Meibing's parents sincerely and said, "Uncle, Auntie, Meimei brought me back after careful consideration." As for the time it took to consider it...
Mei Bing's sister-in-law was very satisfied with Mei Bing's marriage. "Dad, Mom, our Xiao Bing has always been very steady and reliable."
Mei Bing's father is a man, and he's rather rough around the edges.
Mei Bing's mother was thinking a lot. "Xiao Bing, why haven't I heard you mention Xiao Han before?"
Before Mei Bing could speak, her sister-in-law said, "Mom, Xiao Bing probably wants to wait until her relationship with Xiao Han is more stable before telling you. Xiao Bing, isn't your sister-in-law right?"
Mei Bing didn't want to talk to her sister-in-law. But they were all adults, and some things were best left unsaid. "Yes."
Tengteng could tell that Meibing's father wasn't very satisfied with him: "Uncle, Meimei told me a lot about you. Meimei said that you used to..." Tengteng had looked into Meibing's father. So... Tengteng picked out a few of the merits Meibing's father had made in the past.
Mei Bing's mother believed that Tengteng and Mei Bing had known each other for a long time because Tengteng seemed to know a lot.
As it approached dinnertime, Sister-in-law Mei Bing stood up from the sofa. "Xiao Han, what would you like to eat? I'll have Auntie make it for you."
Tengteng smiled. "I'm not a picky eater. I don't have any dietary restrictions."
"Alright. You guys chat. I'll go make some of Xiao Han's signature dishes."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"It's alright. You two chat."
Tengteng also stood up from the sofa. "Sister-in-law, let me go with you. I can cook too."
Mei Bing's mother was even more pleased to hear that. "You can cook?"
"Hmm. Auntie, what do you like to eat? I'll make it for you."
Mei Bing's sister-in-law thought to herself: It's as if you can do everything.
Mei Bing's father frowned. However, considering that Mei Bing had gone to the army at a young age and basically didn't know how to cook, he didn't mind Tengteng, a grown man, working around the stove.
Mei Bing was quite surprised to hear Tengteng say that he could cook. After her surprise, Mei Bing wanted to test Tengteng: "My mom likes to eat..." Mei Bing named a few dishes that her dad and mom liked to eat.
Tengteng smiled after hearing this. "Okay, I'll go make it now." Because Mei Bing said they had known each other for a long time, Tengteng didn't ask Mei Bing what she liked to eat.
After Tengteng and Meibing's sister-in-law left, only Meibing's parents, Meibing's brother, and Meibing remained in the house.
Mei Bing's mother looked at Mei Bing and said, "You child, why didn't you tell your mother that you have a boyfriend?"
Mei Bing's brother: "Xiao Bing, you need to change your temper. Look what you did to Xiao Han."
Mei Bing's mother: "Your brother is right. Xiao Bing, don't fight with Xiao Han anymore. Even if you do, don't hit him in the face. Xiao Bing, when are you two planning to get married?"
"Let's wait a while."
Mei Bing's mother couldn't wait to marry Mei Bing off tomorrow. "Why wait a while? Haven't you known each other for a long time?"
"Yes. I just wanted to test him a little more."
Mei Bing's mother glared at Mei Bing: "That's good enough, any more and you'll fail."
"Oh, is that so? Well... I'll ask him later. When does he plan to get married?"
Mei Bing's mother: "Didn't you two discuss when to get married?"
"Uh...we've discussed it. He wants to get married soon. I want to stay single for another two years."
Mei Bing's mother: "You child."
"Mom, why are you urging me to marry him after only meeting him once?"
"Mom thinks he and you are a good match."
Which one is suitable?
“He’s perfect for you. Look, you’re busy outside all day, while he’s in charge of logistics. He has time to take care of the family. Besides, you slapped him twice, and he still brought gifts to our house. What does that show? It shows that he cares about you a lot.”
Mei Bing thought to herself: His logistics staff are busier than I am. "Mom, just because I slapped him twice and he wasn't angry, you think he cares about me?"
"Yeah. If he didn't care about you, he would have gotten angry with you long ago."
“Okay.” Mei Bing looked at her father. “Dad, you agree to me marrying him?”
"Dad thinks he's not good enough for you."
Mei Bing's eyes lit up. "Then you can tell him later that you don't agree to us being together."
Mei Bing's mother glared at her daughter. "Old Mei, you can't go along with Xiao Bing's nonsense. You know Xiao Bing's situation." Mei Bing's mother and father had been married for decades. She could basically guess what Mei Bing's father was thinking. "I also want to find Xiao Bing a capable man. But would a capable man be smiling after your daughter slapped him twice?"
Mei Bing's mother stopped and looked at Mei Bing's father. "If you want to find a capable man for your daughter, then you should first get your daughter to change her temper. Otherwise, your daughter will want to control him, and he will want to control your daughter. In the end, neither of them will give in to the other."
Mei Bing's brother: "Dad, I used to want to introduce Xiao Bing to someone, but they all said they weren't good enough for her. Dad, although Xiao Han is gentle... well... although Xiao Han has a gentle temper, he's still a soldier. He and Xiao Bing are a good match."
Mei Bing's father knew all about what they were saying. He was just a little reluctant. "Then let's go with him."
More than half an hour later, the food was served.
After tasting the dishes prepared by Tengteng, the Mei family's jaws nearly dropped. After the meal, Tengteng chatted with Mei Bing's parents, brother, and sister-in-law for a while before saying goodbye.
Mei Bing's mother asked Mei Bing to come out and see Tengteng off.
Once outside, Mei Bing looked at Tengteng and said, "You're really cunning."
Tengteng smiled. "How am I cunning?"
Mei Bing pointed at Tengteng's face. "You really deserved those two slaps."
Tengteng looked at Mei Bing and said, "This is the first time I've ever been slapped."
Mei Bing's heart skipped a beat. "You're trying to use those two slaps to persuade my parents?"
Tengteng looked into Meibing's eyes and said, "Yes. Meimei, I'm willing to take a few more slaps just to marry you."
Mei Bing was a little touched. "My parents asked when we're getting married?"
"I want to get married now."
Mei Bing laughed. "You should go back and ask your parents. I'll only marry you if they agree."
"Okay. I'm leaving now."
"Um."
Tengteng had only taken a few steps when Mei Bing called him back again.
Tengteng turned back and looked at Mei Bing with a smile. "Are you reluctant to see me leave? Why don't we chat a little longer?"
Mei Bing looked at Tengteng seriously and said, "Now I know why I can't join you."
Tengteng touched Meibing's face. "You're excellent too."
Mei Bing smiled. "I can think three steps ahead for every one step I take. But you can think four, five, or even more steps ahead for every one step you take."
"Later I will teach you how to think four, five, or six steps ahead when you take one step."
"good."
