As Zhao Jiaojiao finished her homework, she said, "I heard Arui mention that the person he admires most is Grandpa."
Then he glanced at Ling Yunrui and continued, "You are the most selfless people in our country. It is because of you that we have such a good life today. However, your military medals are also the result of the contributions of many military wives. They all silently contribute behind the scenes..."
Zhao Jiaojiao acted like she admired the soldier and was a complete little fangirl.
But Grandpa Ling felt very comfortable, and he even mentioned some things about the war when he was young.
The two of them are almost friends regardless of age.
Both Ling's father and mother looked surprised.
In fact, when Ling's father was a child, he resented his old father, because in his memory, his old father rarely appeared in his life.
He envied others for having their fathers around, but he only saw them a few times throughout the year.
Now I have let it go.
Because my mother often said that my father lived not for himself, nor for us mother and son, but for more people.
Mother Ling also asked about Zhao Jiaojiao's academic background just now. She is a graduate student from a first-class university.
Listening to what she said, I also agreed that soldiers are great.
But no one in my family mentioned it at all.
In her impression, her mother-in-law is a strong woman who would not say such things in a soft way.
I finally understood why my son liked Zhao Jiaojiao.
Look, she has only been here for a while and has made her father-in-law laugh out loud. Even her own man looks at her differently.
As for her, all she wants is for her daughter-in-law to give her more grandchildren.
At least two, for company.
"I heard from Xiaorui that you like eating seafood."
"Thank you, auntie."
It’s not that she doesn’t like it, but the whole table is filled with her favorite seafood.
This meeting with the parents was a complete success.
Moreover, Zhao Jiaojiao also received red envelopes from three elders.
He did not leave the Ling family villa immediately, but accompanied Grandpa Ling to the greenhouse to see the flowers and played two games of chess before the old man was helped to rest.
Zhao Jiaojiao was dragged by Ling Yunrui to his room.
"Aren't you curious about the red envelopes my parents gave me?"
How can I not be curious?
Is it because I am too curious?
Zhao Jiaojiao opened the red envelopes, and inside one was a property certificate, one was a check, and one was a key.
Just a meeting.
"I'm just an ordinary person."
This move involves a check for 10 million, real estate, and car keys.
"Take it. It's not much. It's just a gift for you."
I’m afraid that they will give more gifts when they get married.
"I'll take you to my grandma's house tomorrow."
Zhao Jiaojiao had no objection, but she was feeling nervous because she had tens of millions of dollars in her hands.
"So what should I pay attention to?"
After all, I have to meet my elders again tomorrow.
Ling Yunrui immediately talked about the situation at his grandmother's house.
"My grandma and grandpa were professors at Tsinghua University. My ancestors also had a university scholar. I have an uncle and an aunt."
"My uncle became wealthy in the 1980s and has two sons under his name. As for my aunt, she has always been competitive with my mother, comparing herself to men and children, and is quite aggressive."
Zhao Jiaojiao listened quietly.
"Then she might use my family background to belittle me?"
Ling Yunrui nodded in agreement, "You can start with my grandma and grandpa. My grandpa is an old professor in the mathematics department, and my grandma teaches in the English department."
Zhao Jiaojiao's eyes lit up, and she thought this was a good starting point.
After the two talked for a while, Zhao Jiaojiao saw that her mother was calling.
"mom....."
Mother Zhao just wanted to ask about the attitude of her future in-laws.
"How about it?"
Zhao Jiaojiao asked Ling Yunrui to leave temporarily, leaving the mother and daughter alone to talk.
