He Qing suddenly understood that what Suning invited him to was not an ordinary gathering, but their family gathering. It was nothing more than accidentally attending someone else's family gathering. What surprised He Qing even more was that Suning brought him to meet her family.
Another purpose was to introduce him to her family, which was completely equivalent to bringing her boyfriend home for the first time. Although it was in a club outside, it was no different from going to Su's house.
When he deeply realized this, in addition to being surprised, He Qing felt helpless. Now that Suning's "plot" had succeeded, it was too late for him to quit midway.
But at this moment, he still maintained a calm expression on the surface, as if nothing had happened.
"Uncle, Suning and I haven't known each other for long." He Qing answered Su's father's question. He was telling the truth. He and Suning had indeed known each other for less than a few days. Before following Lin Haitao through Jingnan last time, the two of them had known each other for a few days.
They are strangers to each other and have never met each other.
Even so, after this thrilling "Journey to the West Experience", the two quickly became closer to each other and established a very deep relationship. However, in He Qing's view, this relationship was just a friendship between friends of the opposite sex.
That's all, there is no impure relationship at all, and he has never had the slightest thought about Suning.
"It's been a while, right?" Suning suddenly asked.
"About half a month or so." He Qing replied.
"Only half a month?!"
Hearing He Qing's answer, the parents of the Su family looked at each other, and other people in the Su family also had a look of surprise on their faces, and some couldn't help but exclaimed.
It took less than half a month for the two of them to establish a relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, and now they have brought each other back home to meet their parents. This development speed is too fast, which is unbelievable.
Suning's mind is so sharp. She can naturally tell by observing words and expressions that her parents and others are full of doubts.
Seeing this, she quickly explained and said confidently: "Half a month is not a short time. Haven't you heard of love at first sight? When you really like someone, it takes seconds!"
She said it bluntly and her meaning couldn't be clearer. She liked He Qing. She brought He Qing here today to give him a "surprise" and bring him to meet his elders to settle the matter.
Hearing her speak so bluntly, He Qing's face changed slightly, as if he was embarrassed.
He had known that Suning liked him for a long time, but he had already expressed his feelings to the other party, saying that the two could only be friends. He already had a girlfriend and had reached the stage of discussing marriage.
Unexpectedly, Suning ignored all this and went her own way. She found other ways to bring him to meet her parents and relatives.
It's just that He Qing didn't feel the surprise, but only "frightened", which caught him off guard.
"Is love at first sight reliable? That's something that only happens in movies." Su's mother glared at Suning slightly and said. She was obviously a little angry. She might think Suning's idea was incredible.
Suning said seriously: "Art is higher than life, but it comes from life. You can't deny that, right?"
Mother Su was so angry at her words that she didn't know what to say in reply.
"Xiao He, what do you do? Which company do you work for?" On this side, Su's father asked again, asking about He Qing's work.
"Me?" When Su's father asked, He Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. It seemed that Mr. Su had not made his situation clear to Su's father and the others before this, otherwise they would not have asked this question.
"I don't. What I do now is freelancing, and it may always be like this in the future." After a pause, He Qing replied calmly.
He told the truth. He didn't hide anything.
He does not have a job at the moment. He is not working in a fixed company. He just opens an antique shop and goes out to buy things. He occasionally helps Lin Haitao's "Jianbao Zhai" with some things, but no job can make him so happy.
in it.
"Freelance job?!" As soon as these words came out, not only Su's father, but also Suning and Mr. Su, everyone else present looked at He Qing in surprise, and many people's eyes had quietly revealed contempt.
.
In fact, when they saw He Qing for the first time, some people in the Su family looked at him with obvious contempt because he was dressed too ordinary and did not fit the image of the Su family's son-in-law at all.
"Xiao He, it must have been some time since you graduated from college, right? Why haven't you stabilized your job yet?" Su's father asked, his face darkening, and his tone became colder, "I heard from Ning Ning that you like to collect antiques.
I’ve been collecting antiques everywhere recently. It’s a great hobby to have, and I like it myself. However, there is an idiom called ‘playing with things leads to loss of spirit’, and you have to learn to stop it in moderation.”
"Uncle Su, you are absolutely right. Playthings can indeed lead to loss of one's ambition." He Qing nodded solemnly and replied humbly.
"Dad, it's not...Brother Qing, he..."
"Ning Ning, don't interrupt yet, listen to your father finish what he has to say!"
Suning opened her mouth to explain something to He Qing, but Su's mother immediately interrupted her.
"So you should find a job and have a relatively ambitious plan in mind, so that your life can be stable and complete." Su's father said in a persuasive way, admonishing He Qing as an elder who had been through it.
He Qing nodded repeatedly after hearing this, saying that what he said made sense.
"What do your parents do? Is your hometown in Jiangzhou?" Immediately, Su's mother asked a few questions.
He Qing turned around, looked at Su's mother with a smile, shook his head and said: "No, our hometown is in Hunan. My parents are just ordinary workers. They don't have much education and don't know how to do business.
Tao, but they are now living in Jiangzhou, and I have brought my whole family over."
"Oh, is that so?" Su's mother replied very coldly.
"Ning Ning, come out with me." After saying that, he suddenly stood up and called Suning.
Suning looked quite reluctant, but she couldn't disobey her mother's orders, so she had no choice but to say goodbye to He Qing, and followed her mother and aunt out of the box.
"Ning Ning. What are you doing?!"
After walking out of the box, Su's mother suddenly grabbed Suning's hand and asked in a deep voice: "How can you bring such a person to see us? You spoke so well of him before, we thought he was such a good person.
Man. But the result is that he looks like an average person, has no education, no family background, and doesn’t want to make progress. He doesn’t even have a job now. How can we let you associate with such a boy?! How can we rest assured?
Leave you to her?!
"Daughter, we know that you don't like Xiaobao now and want to escape the urging of both parents, but you won't bring such a person back to use as a shield! Tell Mom, did you deliberately find someone to come back to deal with us?
Is He Qing just a random person you found?"
"No, how is that possible?! We have really known each other for a long time, and I really like him!" Suning replied with a laugh. She didn't expect her mother to say that, and she actually thought that He Qing was brought back by her to prevaricate everyone.
What a waste of her good mood to surprise everyone.
"You don't want to act anymore." Mother Su said resolutely, "You have to find a decent person to cooperate with you when you act, right?"
"That's right, compared to the young master of the Xiao family, that He Qing is really far behind!" The aunt standing by nodded vigorously in agreement.
The rest of the people who came out to lobby for Su's mother also echoed their voices, praising the Xiao family master and belittling He Qing. In fact, they were not deliberately belittling He Qing. The facts they saw with their own eyes told them that He Qing was
Qing and Suning are not in the same family, they are not worthy at all.
"You all look down on He Qing. You have just met him and have no idea how good he is!" Suning loudly defended He Qing.
But no matter how she defended herself, Su's mother and others would not believe her.
"Xiao He, I heard that you like to collect antiques and you have a good eye. So what kind of antiques have you collected?"
At the same time, in the private room, a middle-aged man from the Su family who was about the same age as Su's father asked He Qingdao.
He Qing shook his head with a smile and said: "Excuse me. I'm just a novice in this industry. I don't have any good collections. They're just ordinary small items."
What he said was overly modest. Not to mention his eyesight, in terms of his collection achievements, as of now, it is estimated that few people can compete with him. He has countless valuable items worth tens of millions at a time.
Mr. Su, who had been sitting quietly aside at this moment, smiled and said nothing. The other people in the Su family didn't understand He Qing and looked down upon him. How could he still not understand his situation?
However, he did not deliberately defend He Qing, because he knew that He Qing was an extremely low-key person, and he did not want to reveal his hidden abilities for everyone to see.
"Haha, after all, you are still young, so you can learn more in the future." The man said with a smile that was quite meaningful.
"That's right, you need to study more." He Qing nodded hurriedly and responded.
The man added: "But I suggest you not to indulge in this behavior. It is better to find a serious job first and then do it for fun the rest of the time. Just treat it as a hobby."
"Uncle, I don't agree with what you said." He Qing straightened his face and suddenly said very seriously.
"What? Am I right?" The man asked in surprise, "I don't mean anything else. I just suggest that you find a stable job so that you can have the capital to collect. Otherwise, it will be very confusing. After all, the antiques industry is
The water is too deep, so digging holes is common. Even if you have a good eye and see one or two good things, you still need enough money to buy them."
He Qing said solemnly: "For people like me, collecting professionally is not necessarily an unorthodox profession. As the saying goes, 'Three hundred and sixty people will be the number one scholar', and there are also freelancing jobs.
The advantage of freelancing is that these things are not good or bad, it just depends on personal preference. Although I didn’t receive any good things, I occasionally picked up one or two relatively good treasures.”
"Better baby?"
Hearing what he said, the man, Su's father and others looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces. For a moment, they seemed to be unable to see He Qing clearly. They felt that he suddenly became much more sophisticated.
He seemed confident, not like a novice who was just starting out in the antique business.
"Xiao He, did you find anything good when you took Ning Ning to Xinjiang this time?" Su's father asked casually.
He Qing replied calmly: "It's okay."
"What did you find?" Su's father said again, "If it's convenient, take it out and show it to everyone."
Like Mr. Su and others, he also has a certain interest in collecting. Now that he heard He Qing speak so confidently, he suddenly felt an inexplicable interest. He just wanted to find out and see if He Qing had any collections.
What good things can I get? Through this, I can deepen my understanding of him, so I can keep a close eye on my daughter.
He Qing pondered for a moment and said: "Just in time, I have brought a few things with me. Take them out and ask you seniors to take a look at them."
As he spoke, he first carefully escaped from his arms with a small cloth bag. After opening the small cloth bag, Su's father and others' eyes suddenly lit up, and they all looked surprised.
