Tan Xuan was stunned and sat there with a look of astonishment on his face. Xiao Di got angry and stood upright from Tan Xuan's arms.
"What do you mean? I don't want you to go to my house, are you?" Xiao Di asked, pointing at Tan Xuan's nose.
Tan Xuan shook his head vigorously, "No, I am not reluctant."
"Then what do you mean?" Xiao Di asked, glaring at Tan Xuan. Tan Xuan's reaction just now made her not only surprised, but also heartbroken.
Tan Xuan said with a dry smile: "Yes, it's just a bit too sudden. I'm not ready yet."
"Who asked you to prepare anything? What a waste of preparation you have." Xiao Di stood up from Tan Xuan's arms. Tan Xuan didn't even want to hold him back and walked to the chair beside him angrily.
"It's my first time to go to your house. Isn't it inappropriate not to prepare something? Isn't that too unruly? Your family will never make fun of me like this from now on."
Xiao Di thought for a moment and nodded, "Yeah, that's really not good-looking. There will be so many people there."
"What! There will still be many people here by then?" Tan Xuan exclaimed again, his expression full of uneasiness, and sweat instantly appeared on his shiny forehead.
Xiao Di glared at Tan Xuan and said angrily: "Nonsense, they are all family members. What, are you afraid of the crowd?"
"Have you told your family about our relationship? Didn't you say you wouldn't talk about it first?" Tan Xuan looked at Xiao Di timidly, with a hint of reproach in his expression.
Xiao Di rolled his eyes at Tan Xuan, "What are you thinking about? My grandfather has returned from recuperation, and my uncle and aunt both came over for the weekend. During dinner last night, my brother told me about his hospitalization two days ago. I
My parents said that this is a life-saving grace and I must thank you very much, so while everyone at home is here, let me invite you back to have a meal together."
"You don't think I want to take you back to meet your parents, do you?" Xiao Di looked at Tan Xuan with wide eyes and asked.
Tan Xuan chuckled, "It's not just about meeting the parents."
Turning around, Tan Xuan let out a long breath and felt much better. The shock just now made his stomach shrink.
Xiao Di glared at Tan Xuan fiercely and pouted unhappily, "De Xing, what's wrong with meeting your parents? Are my family members like tigers? Or is it that the man I'm looking for can't do anything and is afraid of meeting people?"
"I wasn't prepared, so I felt a little panicked." Tan Xuan replied with a smile. His reaction just now was a little big, but now he feels a little ashamed.
"Are you feeling panic? I think you haven't gotten over the blow from Jiang Yingyue yet. Are you also afraid that my family will look down on you and give us a beating?" Xiao Di was not polite at all.
It exposed Tan Xuan's heart.
Tan Xuan nodded, no longer covering up and said: "Indeed, I am a little scared of being hit. Just because you like me doesn't mean your family can accept me. What if they don't agree with us being together."
"Bullshit, you've never met my parents. How do you know they won't accept you? Not everyone's parents are as powerful as Jiang Yingyue's mother. My family doesn't have that kind of family tradition. Just like my brother
Same, don't you dare to joke with him now that you see him? I'm here, what are you afraid of? My happiness is for them to witness, not for them to decide, so put your little thoughts aside
Go back to your stomach, don’t you still believe me? It would be better if you take this opportunity to meet my family first, and then we can meet again in the future."
Tan Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I believe you, but I still feel a little scared."
Xiao Di's brows stood up, "Why are you so scared? You are not even afraid of ghosts, but you are still afraid of my parents. Are you so timid? How come I haven't noticed you after I've known you for so long."
Tan Xuan forced out a smile and said: "If ghosts and monsters dare to mess with me, I will kill them. There is no need to be afraid. But your parents are different. If they target me, no matter how uncomfortable I feel, I can't
Take action against them."
"What did you say?" Xiao Di picked up the chopsticks and tapped Tan Xuan on the head, "Eat, if you don't eat, I will take these things and feed them to the dog, but you must go home with me on weekends."
"Okay then." Since it was an order rather than a discussion, Tan Xuan had no choice but to accept his fate and picked up the chopsticks with a grimace. He was still hungry, how could he take advantage of the stray dogs outside.
"When I go to your house on the weekend, should I go on Saturday or Sunday?" Tan Xuan just took a bite and glanced at Xiao Di again and asked.
Tan Xuan said while eating: "Saturday. My uncle and my aunt will stay for one day on Saturday and go back on Sunday."
"Oh, what day is it today?" Tan Xuan continued to ask. His work, which he works day and night, only involves day and night, and does not care about the day of the week.
"Thursday."
"ah!"
Tan Xuan's hands were unsteady, and the chopsticks in his hands suddenly fell on the table. He picked them up and looked at the food in front of him. He felt as if he was full before taking two bites, but Xiao Di had a
Under the murderous gaze, he still wolfed down the food with knowledge.
After all, you can't escape what you have to face. Tan Xuan has no choice. Fortunately, this time it is the Xiao family's main purpose to express their gratitude. It is not time to examine the uncle yet, but I think of the last time the Jiang family was also at the thank you banquet.
Rejecting himself, the tanxuan meal he ate was just like chewing wax. The scene at the Jiang family kept flashing through his mind. At the same time, he kept imagining what it would be like to meet Xiao Di's family.
After a good night's sleep, Tan Xuan was no longer anxious. It was not that he thought about it, but that he looked away. The key was to let Xiao Di's gentle lingering all night untie him. The boat would naturally straighten when it reached the bridge, and it didn't matter whether it was straight or not.
There was a moment when we reached the bridge.
"I don't think about it anymore. It's useless to think about it. Let's face the reality directly. Anyway, my wife didn't run away, so I can do whatever I want with other things."
Now that he is going to meet his parents, no matter what the reason for the meeting is, Tan Xuan has no reason to go empty-handed. Fortunately, there is still one day of preparation time, so Tan Xuan has to prepare well. After getting up early in the morning, Tan Xuan drove out and stayed there until nearly
I came back at noon and only brought back a package of ugly things.
"This is what you want to give to my grandpa? What is this? Doesn't it look too ordinary?" Xiao Di twisted the paper bag and looked at it, with undisguised disgust in his eyes.
Tan Xuan chuckled and did not let Xiao Di open the paper package, "Your family is lacking in everything. No matter what I bring, it may not be in your family's eyes. But don't look at my package inconspicuously.
It’s also hard to get rich and powerful people.”
Xiao Di was aroused by Tan Xuan's words. He picked up the paper bag and looked it up and down. Except for a strange-looking seal, there was no other sign.
"What exactly is here?"
"Tea." Seeing the disappointed expression on Xiao Di's face, Tan Xuan chuckled and took the paper bag from Xiao Di's hand, "Don't underestimate this tea. This is tea made by Qingzhu Taoist from Qingyun Temple."
, Qingzhu, this old man is not good at anything else, but he is an expert in making tea. My master is full of praise for the tea he makes. It not only tastes good, but also nourishes the body. Didn't you say that your grandpa likes to drink tea, so it is definitely not wrong to give this to him. "
As he spoke, Tan Xuan snorted again and continued: "It's just that the old man Qingzhu is a bit stingy. I wanted to ask for a few more packages, but he only gave me one package. He also said that there was not much stock this year, and there were only two packages of top quality. Wait.
One day when I have time, I will bring him all the tea leaves and boil tea eggs for him. I don’t care what the best is, I will cook it for him in one pot, but it only costs a few eggs."
"Haha, don't be annoying. Didn't I give you a bag of tea? Don't be too greedy."
Xiao Di pushed Tan Xuan and put away the tea leaves with a smile. Since Tan Xuan said this tea was a good thing, it must be a good thing, otherwise Tan Xuan would not have run out early in the morning.
"Have you eaten?" Tan Xuan asked, "If you haven't eaten, let's go out for a bite. After eating, we can go out for a walk and see what kind of gifts we can buy. It's not the first time we come to the house to just bring one gift. Why?
They have to be in pairs."
"Then let's go. You're not at home and I don't have the appetite to eat alone."
Xiao Di followed Xiao Di out and didn't come back until evening. He was carrying big and small bags. After entering the door, he threw the things away and they both collapsed on the sofa. Women love shopping, but women can also be tired from shopping.
.
Looking at the bags of different sizes on the ground, Tan Xuan asked in confusion: "Didn't we buy gifts for your family? Why, except for a box of cakes to use as gifts, did you buy clothes for me?
"
"When you go to my house tomorrow, you have to do your best to leave a good impression on my family? Let me tell you, the first impression is very important. If they recognize you, won't all the things you worry about be gone?
Is there a problem?"
Xiao Di did not stay at Tan Xuan's house that night because her mother called and said that her aunt's family had arrived and asked her to go back and stay tonight. So Xiao Di, a good and naughty girl, went home. In order not to be discovered by her family, she
She didn't even dare to ask Tan Xuan to see her off, so she hailed a taxi at the gate of the community and went back.
"I feel like this future mother-in-law is not easy to talk to either?" Looking at the taxi driving away, and thinking about Xiao Di's expression when he answered the phone just now, Tan Xuan felt uneasy again.
Tan Xuan suffered from insomnia that night. He tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep. It wasn't until the light outside the window dimmed that he fell asleep in a daze. As for the daily meditation practice, how could he think about it now? With this mentality
, and if you practice again, you will become obsessed with it.
Tan Xuan woke up from a nightmare. He had just dreamed that Xiao Di's parents beat him to pieces and kicked him out. Their attitude towards him was even worse than that of Jiang Yingyue's parents.
"Fortunately, it's just a dream..." Tan Xuan touched his chest, and his pajamas were soaked with sweat from him.
"Brother, you have read the Spring and Autumn Period, brother, you have drank boiled wine..."
Tan Xuan was frightened when his cell phone rang suddenly. He had never been afraid of ghosts, but now he had unspeakable fear for his future mother-in-law.
"Hello!"
"Tan Xuan, what are you doing? What time is it? Do you really plan to come until dinner time?"
