"My dad and your dad seem to be having a very pleasant conversation?"
“My mom and your mom got along really well too. Wow, my mom even helped your mom put her hair up.”
The aroma of tea wafted through the Li family's living room.
Chu Chunrong and Li Yanbai smoked Huazi cigarettes, sipping tea and discussing history, poetry, and music. They would occasionally share a common understanding, exchange smiles, and point to each other, just like old friends.
Tang Wenfang and Zhang Xiaoyu chatted like best friends about women's topics. Then, Tony Fang used his professional skills to give Zhang Xiaoyu an exquisite hairstyle and offered to trim her eyebrows.
Overall, things went quite smoothly and pleasantly, while Chu Yang and Li Qingshu were left out in the cold.
"That's wonderful." Li Qingshu smiled, as if she could already see the two families living happily together in the future.
She hadn't expected things to develop this way; it seemed like many steps had been skipped, and the next step appeared to be discussing marriage.
But this is only the first time I've met your parents! No, no, this is too fast. I haven't had enough of dating yet, I'm still in school...
So, what names should we give our future children? When we get old...
"Shu'er?" Chu Yang called out.
"What are you thinking about? You're laughing so happily."
Li Qingshu snapped out of her daze and blinked: "My family has a piece of auspicious land on the mountain..."
Chu Yang said, both amused and exasperated, "You've even thought about where we'll be buried after we die?"
"No, I didn't..." Li Qingshu blushed deeply, looking stunningly beautiful.
Chu Yang thought to himself, "This must be what makes the moon hide its face and the flowers blush with shame."
Suddenly I wanted to kiss her.
So he stood up, offered cigarettes to Lao Chu and Li Yanbai, and said, "Shu'er and I are going out for a stroll."
"Don't take too long, it's almost lunchtime," Zhang Xiaoyu said.
"Okay, we won't be long." Chu Yang took Shu'er's hand and walked outside.
The two strolled through the garden, followed by a dog.
"The dog is quite imposing. What's its name?" Chu Yang asked.
The young lady turned her head and glanced at the dog, then beckoned it forward.
"you guess?"
"Nietzsche? A dog named that? Looks like you guys have a problem with this celebrity."
"...I'm asking you to guess its name!"
"Haha, I see. Let me see."
Chu Yang carefully examined the dog and pondered, "It's all black, could it be named Little Blackie?"
"……wrong."
"Is his name Kun Kun?"
"That's not right either."
"Brother Chicken?"
"No, that's not right either. They're all such weird and strange names."
"I don't know, tell me."
Its name is Chang Wei.
"???"
Well, this big black dog in front of us does look very imposing, so naming him Changwei would be quite fitting.
But unfortunately, Shen Li's dog is named Laifu...
With Laifu's adorable little body, if he were to face Changwei, wouldn't he be beaten to a pulp?
“Changwei has been with us since I was in the third year of junior high school. It’s very well-behaved and intelligent, right, Changwei?” the young lady said, patting Changwei’s head.
"Woof!" Chang Wei responded.
"You can actually understand it?" Chu Yang clicked his tongue in amazement and asked, "Can I touch it? It won't bite, will it?"
"Of course, don't worry, it won't bite," the young lady said with a light laugh.
Chu Yang reached out and touched her conscience, even giving it a squeeze.
The young lady blushed, slapped his hand away, looked around, and said in a panic, "Who told you to touch me, you pervert!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gouzi Changwei bared its teeth at Chu Yang, barked angrily twice, and made as if to pounce.
Chu Yang took two steps back, then turned and ran.
"Didn't I say I wouldn't bite?"
"Woof! Woof woof woof..."
The young lady behind her was laughing so hard she was clutching her stomach.
After being chased around by the dog Chang Wei, Chu Yang ran behind her and begged for mercy.
"I was wrong, I'll never touch you like that again."
The young lady snorted twice: "If you dare to bully me in the future, I'll have Chang Wei teach you a lesson. Alright, Chang Wei, let's not bother with him."
Chang Wei finally calmed down.
The two continued their walk and soon arrived at the woodshed.
They then exchanged a glance and went inside in perfect unison.
"Hey, Chang Wei, don't come in. Don't you know how much trouble you're in? Go outside."
"Chang Wei, be good, he's not trying to bully me."
Then Chang Wei was kicked out. He grumbled twice at the closed door, squatted down by the door, and listened carefully.
I could vaguely hear rustling and sucking sounds, as well as the little master's soft humming.
As a dog, it couldn't understand what was going on. Was it stealing something delicious to eat?
It tilted its head and continued listening.
"..."
After a long while, the door to the woodshed opened.
Chu Yang looked refreshed, while the young lady's pretty face was flushed.
"Dinner should be ready soon, let's go over there," Chu Yang said.
The young lady nodded gently.
As soon as he heard it was time to eat, Changwei the dog darted out.
Sure enough, seeing its food bowl filled with meat, it immediately began to eat with relish.
When Chu Yang and the young lady arrived, the dining table was already full of dishes.
"Chu Yang, it's time to eat. Come and sit down," Zhang Xiaoyu called out.
"Aunties, you're so hospitable! There are so many delicious dishes, we can't possibly finish them all," Chu Yang said, opening the wine bottle on the table and pouring wine for Old Li and Old Chu.
Li Yanbai picked up his wine glass and said with a smile, "Brother Chu, it's just a pity I didn't meet you sooner. We should keep in touch more often in the future. Come on, let's have a drink!"
Old Chu raised his glass and clinked it with his, saying heartily, "I'll give you an old xiao (vertical bamboo flute) that I've treasured for many years. It's so pleasant to play, haha, cheers!"
After finishing their drinks, they wanted to continue, but Tang Wenfang patted Lao Chu and said, "Don't drink too much."
“Yes, Lao Li, you shouldn’t just drink alcohol. Tell Chu Yang’s dad to eat more vegetables,” Zhang Xiaoyu added.
Tang Wenfang was afraid that Lao Chu would drink people under the table, while Zhang Xiaoyu was afraid that Li Yanbai would be drunk under the table.
One knows how good her husband's alcohol tolerance is, while the other knows how bad his alcohol tolerance is.
Li Yanbai was naturally unconvinced. After serving Lao Chu some dishes, he picked up his wine glass and started drinking.
The result was predictable: after being outdrunk by Chu Yang last time, this time he was outdrunk by Chu Yang's father.
But I am completely satisfied.
It's obvious that he no longer objects to the marriage.
As he was helped back to his room to rest, he kept calling out, "Brother Chu, don't leave so soon. Let's have dinner here tonight, continue drinking, and maybe even become sworn brothers..."
