Tang Yili called people one by one. Although she had called them all at the wedding yesterday, after calling them today, she still couldn't help but blush.
Xun Miaoyun was a new-school mother-in-law. She smiled and asked Tang Yili to sit down.
"Our family doesn't have that many rules. You don't have to get up early to come here in the future."
Tang Yili breathed a small sigh of relief. She couldn't compare with Xun Lang. She was indeed not good at getting up early.
She sat next to Xun Lang and ate breakfast in silence, trying her best to behave calmly and generously, and trying not to observe Xun Lang's expression.
The whole meal was completely silent again, with only the sound of clinking knives, forks, bowls and chopsticks heard. Only then did Tang Yili realize that the silence in Xun Lang's personality mostly came from the atmosphere of his native family.
After removing breakfast and replacing it with fruit, someone finally spoke.
Ji Nanyun pushed a red post at hand between Xun Lang and Tang Yili, and asked: "Yesterday the concierge received a gift - He Jin, Min Xianning and his wife - which of you are friends?"
Tang Yili put down the tea cup in his hand.
Xun Lang picked up the post, opened it and looked at it. Tang Yili turned his head and saw the names of He Jin and Min Xianning written at the signature.
She couldn't help but take a deep breath. The amount of the gift was quite large. This gesture was really quite grand.
Tang Yili: "I——"
"He's my friend." Xun Lang calmly cut off Tang Yili's words and put the post back to its original place.
Tang Yili looked at him in surprise, but before she could react, she heard Ji Nanyun scold him.
"What is the origin of the He family? He sells white goods and bullets. Are soldiers and thieves the same people? You actually went to make friends with him. Do you still have your grandfather in your eyes?!"
"If people outside know about it, they will think that the Zhai family is involved in gangs. Do you know how bad the impact will be on the family?!"
This is a very serious statement.
Tang Yili was so frightened that his heart trembled: He Jiujia has gone so far as to discredit the family. With such a serious label, he felt as if he had ruined the family fortune as soon as he entered the door.
Tang Yili was so frightened that tears welled up in her eyes.
She went to see Xun Lang and saw his stern eyes, neither guilty nor afraid.
Also, the person who befriended the He family was not Xun Lang, but her.
"Oh, okay, okay," Xun Miaoyun hurriedly advised, "The He family has not arrived, but the gifts have arrived. They also know how to avoid suspicion. It's not that they don't know how to measure."
Zhai Qingpeng also said: "Those things about the He family are all in the old calendar, and now they are clean businessmen... Why are you and Xun Lang so angry?"
"That's right, on a good day, you get angry when you say you're angry."
Xun Miaoyun glared at Ji Nanyun, blaming him for not saving face for his son in front of his daughter-in-law.
Two to one, Ji Nanyun glanced at the young couple opposite him sternly, picked up the tea cup and stopped talking.
Tang Yili trembled in her heart and felt a little depressed at the moment. Sure enough, it was not easy to be the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family.
She silently forked a piece of watermelon, put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly, unable to taste the taste anymore.
Xun Miaoyun also noticed Tang Yili's thoughts and wanted to liven up the atmosphere, so he talked about decorating their new house.
"The main reason is that you are getting married in a hurry. I have just hired someone to start decorating the house in the city. It is estimated that it will take at least half a year to move in. In the past six months, are you and your wife going to live in Xishan or stay in a hotel in the city?
?”
Tang Yili answered naturally: "I have an apartment in Rongjing Mansion, we can live there."
"That's okay too."
Xun Miaoyun asked about the area of the house again, hesitating a little, "The area is not big. If you are pregnant with a baby in the past six months and send your aunt to take care of you, there will be no place to live, right?"
Baby?!
Tang Yili was shocked again and blurted out, "I, we are not planning to have children..."
Xun Lang paused for a moment, then put down the teacup as usual after two seconds.
She pursed her lips and glanced at Xun Lang quickly. She didn't understand why, but the whole family's eyes were focused on her.
They are all waiting for her explanation.
Tang Yili gritted his teeth, raised his head, and said in a low voice: "We are only twenty-two, and we want to have a child... I think it is a bit early... I want to work for a few more years before talking..."
Ji Nanyun frowned.
Zhai Qingpeng was a little cautious, but wanted to get to the bottom of it, and said, "How many years are you going to wait?"
several years?
"Two years?" Tang Yili quickly glanced at everyone and lowered his voice, "Or four or five years..."
"...Five or six years..."
What followed was ten seconds of silence.
No one answered, and the sudden blank moment made Tang Yili hear the thumping sound of his own heartbeat.
It was finished, she knew she was finished.
Refusing to have children is definitely a taboo for wealthy families.
She regretted that she shouldn't have been so greedy and postponed this matter until five or six years later. Who could bear it? She just said it would be two years.
After two years, it cannot be renewed...
"Ahem." Xun Miaoyun smiled awkwardly and stroked the back of his old father's hand twice. "It's true. It's a little early to become a parent at twenty-two. Let's play with it for two years and then talk about it in two years. Don't worry, don't worry."
This sentence is not urgent, and I don’t know who it is talking about.
However, since they had paved the steps, Tang Yili quickly borrowed the donkey to get down the slope.
"Yeah, let's talk about it in two years. There's no rush."
There was a room full of bosses, all of whom were her superiors. After dinner, Tang Yili walked out of the house and felt like she was dripping with sweat.
On the return trip, we still took a battery car. Tang Yili and Xun Lang sat in the back together, and the legroom suddenly became very cramped.
The hem of Tang Yili's skirt always moved between Xun Lang's legs accompanied by the breeze.
Tang Yili stroked his hem and smiled at Xun Lang, "At the dinner table just now, thank you for helping me block the He family's affairs."
Otherwise, she might be scolded and cried by Ji Nanyun on the spot.
"But don't worry, I have only worked with Mrs. He. I have never spoken to He Jin, and I will never have the chance to interact with him in the future."
Xun Lang looked at her, as quiet and cold as the mountains, and said.
"I don't want to interfere with what kind of friends you make, but there is one thing, Tang Yili," he let out the turmoil in his chest, "should you discuss it with me before making your own decision?"
"What?" Tang Yili asked carefully.
"It's about having children."
Tang Yili kept silent.
"Stop the car." Xun Lang said to the driver in front of him, "Get off and we'll drive by ourselves."
The driver bowed and lowered his hands: "Yes."
The driver trotted back to Zhai Mansion and quickly disappeared from sight. The silent mountain road was only watched by the gradually warming sun.
Tang Yili felt like sweating again, "I don't know, it turns out you want a child now..."
"I don't want to have children." Xun Lang's tone was not urgent, as if he was afraid that Tang Yili wouldn't understand, "Whether I want to have children now or in five or six years is not the point. The point is, whether you have a child with me or not."
