"Why aren't you talking? When will you bring me a daughter-in-law so we can see her? I, your mother, don't have high requirements. As long as there is no mess at home, I agree!" Meng Ying stared at him closely, her eyes shining.
Zhao Mingze also fanned the flames, "Yeah, yeah, your dad doesn't have high requirements, just a girl will do!"
"No, are your requirements so low?" Zhao Tianlei couldn't help but ask back. Who are you looking down on?
"What else? You're lucky enough to be able to find one. We won't be picky!" After confirming each other's eyes, it was clear that only a real father could say this.
He stabbed his own son without mercy.
"Am I that bad?" Zhao Tianlei was furious.
In the army, he was clearly a popular figure, wasn't he? He didn't have a partner because he hadn't found anyone he liked. Who would have thought that after returning home, he would be despised like this? Is this his real father?
"If you are so capable, then why don't you find me a daughter-in-law!" Zhao Mingze said lightly, with the maximum counterattack force.
"I..." Zhao Tianlei wanted to refute, but didn't know how to refute.
After all, it is a fact that he has no partner.
Jianshu, who had watched such a good show, thought the food was even more delicious. After finishing his meal, he put down his chopsticks and gave Zhao Tianlei a final blow. "Yeah, Brother Tianlei, when are you going to find us a sister-in-law? You're not going to wait until Lingling finds someone while you're still single, are you?"
Zhao Yueling blushed immediately and buried her head in eating silently.
"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law! Bachelor! Bachelor!" Zhao Tianrui clapped his hands and cheered.
All of a sudden, Zhao Tianlei's last bit of rationality snapped. "Just wait, I'll bring a partner back next time for you to see!"
As soon as he said this, he suddenly came to his senses and felt extremely regretful.
"You have guts! You promised it yourself, so I'll just wait for the red envelope!" Meng Ying didn't wait for him to regret and immediately made the decision.
"No, I..." Zhao Tianlei wanted to change his words.
"Oh, I knew my son was capable. We men are as good as our words and we always keep our promises! Your mother and I are just waiting to meet our daughter-in-law. Don't worry, we will definitely give your wife a big red envelope after the due date!" Zhao Mingze smiled and patted his shoulder, interrupting him.
Zhao Tianlei looked around, and everyone was either watching the joke or laughing at the joke. Everyone who stood on his side felt extremely bitter.
But since I said it myself, I can't go back on my word.
Zhao Tianlei, who was hurt in his heart, turned his grief and anger into appetite, drank two large bowls of rice, and ate until he was full.
After the meal, Gu Mingjing cleaned the table and washed the dishes very conscientiously. His movements were very quick and efficient, and it was obvious that he did this a lot.
Jianshu accompanied him, handing him plates and chopsticks. The two of them talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very warm.
Meng Ying took a look and didn't go in to disturb the couple.
Returning to the living room, he cast a disdainful glance at his son, who had collapsed on the sofa sighing after dinner, and kicked him in anger, "Get out of the way! Don't block the way!"
Zhao Tianlei jumped up and made way with a confused look on his face, completely unaware that he was in unprovoked trouble.
Or rather, he was swept up.
Meng Ying sat down next to Zhao Mingze, nudged him, and raised her chin towards the kitchen. "You found a great son-in-law! So thoughtful!"
Zhao Mingze was also very satisfied with Gu Mingjing's behavior. As a man, how can he not do housework?
"Really? I told you I have good taste! When I was looking for a partner for Shushu, I chose carefully." He raised his chin proudly.
Seeing his cocky look, Meng Ying was a little amused. "Yes, yes, you have the best taste. From now on, you'll have to be the one to choose Lingling's partner."
But she had to admit that Zhao Mingze chose a good son-in-law.
"What partner? Lingling is still so young, what partner is there for her?" Zhao Mingze's face suddenly turned dark.
Having just married off a daughter, he couldn't bear to hear this the most.
"Are you planning to keep Lingling forever?"
"At least, at least wait until she is twenty years old!" Zhao Mingze also knew that it was unrealistic not to get married, so he could only say this.
"That's only a few years away, so we have to look at the candidates for son-in-law first, otherwise the good ones will be picked up by others." Meng Ying said.
"..." Zhao Mingze stiffened his neck and didn't want to speak.
Just pick it and he will find a better one for Lingling. His daughter will never have trouble finding a husband!
Meng Ying rolled her eyes at him and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
The people in the kitchen had no idea what was happening outside.
After washing the dishes, Jianshu sent Gu Mingjing out of the kitchen first, and then replaced all the water used in the house with the spring water in the space.
In the past few years, she would secretly change the water every time, and it did work.
Although it wasn't as potent as the spiritual springs described in novels, capable of cleansing the meridians and marrow and curing a myriad of ailments, it did subtly enhance one's physique. Over the past few years, Meng Ying and Zhao Mingze had seen a significant improvement in their chronic ailments.
So every time I think of it, Jianshu feels very regretful that he didn't recall the memory earlier.
After she left this time, there would be very few opportunities to change the water, so she had to replenish it more while it was still there.
Since no one cared anyway, the two stayed at Zhao's house for another afternoon and left after dinner.
After sending the two out of the house, Jian Shu hugged Meng Ying's arm and said coquettishly, "Aunt, I will come back to accompany you in a few days."
"Okay, Auntie will wait." Meng Ying patted the back of her hand and nodded with a smile.
Knowing that we will see each other again in a few days, I feel less sad.
"Spend more time with your father at home these days. He lives far away and it's not easy for you to see him." Zhao Mingze instructed.
"Yeah, I know." Jianshu nodded.
Gu Zhan really had nothing to say about her. Not to mention being a daughter-in-law, even his own daughter was no better than this.
"Okay, you guys should leave early. It will be dark soon. We will see each other again in a few days." Zhao Mingze waved his hand, interrupting everyone's reluctance to leave.
"Then let's go." Jian Shu held Gu Mingjing's hand, looking back every step of the way.
"Let's go!" Meng Ying waved at them.
"Uncle and aunt, Brother Tianlei, Lingling, Ruirui, goodbye!" Jianshu waved goodbye vigorously.
"Goodbye!" The Zhao family members stood in place, waving goodbye.
I watched the young couple walk further and further away until they disappeared.
