Chapter 199 New Plan!
Yan's father was a little worried, "Wouldn't it be bad if we left before the end here?"
Yan Ruo comforted him, "It's okay, I'm not familiar with them anyway, I just came here to show my face today."
Just as they were about to take out their cell phone to call Xiao Liu, they unexpectedly saw Lin Zhixing walking straight towards them.
Lin Zhixing was holding a wine glass in his hand with an ambiguous smile on his face. Two people followed behind him, and it was obvious that they had bad intentions.
Yan Ruo glanced around and saw Xu Shaoyu chatting with Song Yichuan. Lin Shuyun obviously glanced over here with an expression of watching a good show on her face.
However, Lin Yuan, who had been following her, looked worried.
This time when coming to North City, what Yan Ruo feared most was that the Lin family would say something unpleasant in front of Yan's parents.
Fortunately, they had little chance to interact with each other. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhixing would come and cause trouble at this time.
And it seems that Lin Shuyun knew about it, or it was her who instructed it.
Yan Ruo stood sideways in front of Yan's parents and was about to take out her cell phone to call Xu Shaoyu to come and deal with it when Lin Zhixing spoke first.
"Future cousin-in-law, I didn't get the chance just now. I wonder if you would be so kind as to have a drink with me now."
As he spoke, he handed over the wine glass in his hand.
Yan Ruo had developed a habit over the years of socializing with Xu Shaoyu, which was to avoid drinking things of unknown origin.
She smirked and picked up a cocktail from the table, "Of course."
Lin Zhixing didn't want to let it go like that. "I just made this drink for you myself. I bet your future cousin-in-law wouldn't be so rude as to give you this little bit of face."
When he talked about his future cousin-in-law, he deliberately drew out his voice, giving people a very frivolous feeling.
Yan Ruo's parents, who were standing behind him, frowned as they heard this.
Lin Zhixing, however, smiled with amusement, tilting his head to look at Yan's parents. "My aunt told me, future cousin-in-law, that the peanuts your parents grow are pretty good. Bring me some some sometimes..."
Suddenly, a hand was placed on Lin Zhixing's shoulder, which not only interrupted his words, but also made the smile on his face freeze instantly.
The corners of Xu Shaoyu's lips curled up, but his eyes were terribly cold, and his voice was very soft and cold.
"Lin Zhixing, it's not enough to take things from me, you also want to take things from my father-in-law and mother-in-law? Your shamelessness is getting thicker and thicker."
Lin Zhixing forced a slightly stiff smile, "Cousin, you misunderstood. I just came to say hello and made a joke."
Xu Shaoyu walked over to Yan Ruo and glanced at him nonchalantly, "This joke is not funny."
"It's not easy for my father-in-law and mother-in-law to grow peanuts, so I can't waste it on you."
These words made Lin Zhixing's expression twisted for a moment. He didn't care about peanuts at all and wouldn't even want them if they were given to him.
The reason I said that was just to deliberately use a double entendre to satirize the Yan family and to vent my aunt's anger.
Even though Lin Zhixing is extremely arrogant outside, he is like a cat seeing a mouse in front of Xu Shaoyu and dares not say anything.
Xu Shaoyu didn't want to waste time on him, so he scolded him for a few words before speaking mercifully.
"Go away, tell my mom to drink less. It's easy to lose your composure when you're drunk."
Lin Zhixing looked at Xu Shaoyu, then turned to look at Lin Shuyun. After he realized what was going on, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"Come back!" Xu Shaoyu said with dissatisfaction, "Where are your manners? Don't you know how to say goodbye to your elders?"
Lin Zhixing's expression froze for a moment. Under Xu Shaoyu's gaze, he had no choice but to speak obediently, "Sorry to bother you. Goodbye."
Xu Shaoyu turned around and explained to Yan's parents, "My cousin has been spoiled by his family since he was a child. He has a greedy mouth. Uncles and aunts, please ignore him."
Yan's father nodded hesitantly.
Yan's mother smiled and tried to smooth things over. "A little bit of home-grown produce isn't worth much. I'll send more next time."
Yan's parents sat for a while and saw people coming to greet Xu Shaoyu from time to time. Yan Ruo was also very comfortable standing next to him, with unconcealable pride in her eyes.
Taking advantage of the gap, Yan's father stood up and walked to Yan Ruo's side, "Yan Ruo, there's nothing to do here, your mother and I will go back first."
Yan Ruo quickly put down the wine glass in his hand and said, "Okay, I'll take you to the car."
Yan's father waved his hand and said, "No need, we know the way. Besides, Xiao Liu is waiting for us downstairs."
Xu Shaoyu took out his phone and said, "How about this, Uncle? Ruoruo and I will take you to the elevator. Xiao Liu will be waiting for you at the elevator entrance on the underground first floor."
Yan's father did not refuse this proposal.
That is, "Your grandparents are busy, so we won't go to say hello. Remember to tell them later."
Xu Shaoyu nodded, "Don't worry."
Seeing them walking out, Chi Yu, who had been wandering around somewhere, came out.
"Wait, I'm going with my uncle and aunt."
The day after the engagement party, Chi Yu returned to South City. She had come here on the weekend and had to start work seamlessly after returning.
Although Yan's father and mother had time, they simply couldn't stay. They were thinking about taking care of the orchard, and then worried about weeding the vegetable garden after such a long time.
After enjoying the surrounding area, they refused to stay in North City any longer. Before returning home, the two families had another meal together.
This time there were only four people from the Xu family and three people from the Yan family, and they had a very enjoyable meal.
After dinner, when I returned to my residence, I saw Xiao Liu taking out a bunch of gift boxes from the trunk.
Yan's mother sighed, "Xiao Xu's grandparents are so polite. They prepared so many things."
Xu Shaoyu poured several glasses of water and brought them over.
"Grandpa and grandma have always felt bad for not being able to go to Nancheng in person. This little gift is just a token of our appreciation. Uncle and aunt, please don't refuse it."
Knowing that Xu Shaoyu was very busy at work, Yan Ruo originally planned to take her parents back by herself.
Xu Shaoyu insisted on sending them back.
Yan Ruo's fingers traced his cheek, lingering beneath his darkened eyes. "My parents won't mind this."
Xu Shaoyu held her hand, brought it to his lips and kissed it twice, "I wanted to give it to you myself."
Because he had been away for more than half a month, not only the neighbors but most of the village knew that Yan Ru was engaged.
Even if they drove home by themselves, they would still run into acquaintances from time to time, asking about Yan's father and mother through the car window.
"Is your daughter engaged?" "This is your son-in-law?" "Where is he from?" "North City, marrying far away..."
Yan Ruo was once again shocked by the speed and scope of the information spread.
Even as they entered the yard and the door of the main room was still open, their uncle came over.
After sending Yan's father and mother home, Yan Ruo and his wife stayed at home for only one night before returning to South City.
Xu Shaoyu stayed in South City for half a month before returning to North City.
Yan Ruo also took advantage of this time to go home and visit many places in his hometown county and township, purchasing many local specialty products as samples.
