Wish your mother-in-law a happy New Year is definitely a big event!
Although Mother Lin and I have met before, this is the first time we have met in a real sense. After all, I am here as a prospective son-in-law.
Therefore, image and gifts must be in place. Even if Mother Lin has not recognized my identity, as a prospective son-in-law, I must try my best to do my best.
After putting on a new set of clothes that I had bought years ago, and arranging my hair neatly, the two of us went out.
"My family doesn't get to know many relatives, so I don't know what gifts to bring to my elders. Do you have any suggestions?" I asked awkwardly.
Ye Yuyou and I have never seen any relatives other than my mother since we were young, so the words "New Year greetings" have almost never appeared in our world. Naturally, we have no experience in what to give to our elders during the holidays.
"It doesn't have to be too expensive, just give me some nutritional supplements like milk, which are available in supermarkets," Lin Wei said.
"That's it."
I nodded. I had no experience meeting my mother-in-law for the first time, so I really didn’t know what to give her.
You can't give away pills. Each pill in my hand is worth hundreds of thousands, but it will be of no use to Mother Lin.
I can't give away ghost weapons either. People who don't know better think I'm going to seek revenge.
Forget it, it’s my first New Year’s greeting to my mother-in-law, so gifts and the like are enough. The most important thing is to explain everything to Mother Lin.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, almost all shops on the streets are closed, and only some 24-hour convenience stores are still open.
So the two of us bought several boxes of nutritional supplements in the supermarket, and then moved them all to the taxi we just hailed.
Lin Wei's house is not far from my house. It takes about ten minutes to get there by car. This is the first time I went to her house.
Sitting in the car, I kept thinking about how to get along with Mother Lin. Lin Wei beside me was holding my hand, with a worried look on her face.
"Don't be nervous. We will talk to auntie later. She will definitely approve of us. After all, we have experienced life and death." I rubbed Lin Wei's head and laughed softly.
"Well, I will also try to convince my mother."
Lin Wei nodded, but her tone was still a bit heavy. It seemed that she was also a little uneasy at this time.
When I saw this, I couldn't help but sigh. We didn't know whether all young lovers were as nervous as us before meeting their parents, or whether it was just the two of us.
In short, this level must be passed, otherwise Lin Wei will fall into the huge swamp of family affection and love and be unable to extricate herself. I don't want her to fall into that kind of dilemma.
After the two of us got out of the rental car, we walked directly towards the community where Lin Wei's house is located.
I know something about the Lin family's situation.
Lin Wei's parents divorced in her early years. Although Lin's father also provided living expenses regularly, Lin Wei mainly lived with her mother.
In fact, I respect Mother Lin very much. It is not easy to raise a daughter by myself. Outsiders can hardly imagine how much hard work it takes.
Besides Lin Wei, she also has two elders to support, so it can be said that the burden of the family falls on her alone.
From this point of view, it is understandable that Mother Lin hopes that her daughter will become a phoenix, but her desire for control is a little stronger. After all, love is free.
Besides, what is wrong with me, Ye Yan?
In terms of identity, I am a member of the Imperial Bureau; in terms of strength, I am a strong person in the early two-star stage; in terms of financial resources, I am now worth tens of millions, or even over 100 million.
The most important thing is that we are still in love!
Therefore, I still have a lot of confidence in this meeting and hope that Mother Lin can recognize the relationship between Lin Wei and me.
The Lin family is on the first floor of the building on the outermost side of the community. Once we entered the community, we almost walked to the Lin family.
"arrive."
After arriving at the door of Lin's house, Lin Wei and I looked at each other. Lin Wei nodded towards me, and then we both reached out and gently pressed the doorbell.
"jingle!"
After the doorbell rang several times, a slightly low "Here we come" sounded inside, and then the door opened, revealing Mother Lin, who looked somewhat unsightly.
"Is it you??? You're here too?!"
After seeing me, Mother Lin's expression changed immediately, and she looked at me in confusion. Her inner turmoil could be directly seen on her face.
Thinking about it, Lin Wei probably didn't tell her about my return, otherwise the door might not let us in.
The "Happy New Year, Auntie" I had prepared disappeared in the words of Mother Lin, and I didn't know what to say.
Seeing that Lin's mother looked unhappy, Lin Wei quickly said: "Mom, let's have a good talk. You and Ye Yan have never had a good talk..."
There was even a bit of pleading in his tone.
After listening to Lin Wei's words, Mother Lin's expression changed again. After looking at me and Lin Wei wordlessly for a moment, she still stepped aside and said expressionlessly: "You guys come in first."
"Happy New Year, Auntie." I said quickly and put the boxes of nutritional supplements I was carrying on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Mother Lin's face softened slightly, but she still said nothing. Lin Wei whispered from behind: "Mom, I was wrong. It was my fault yesterday. I shouldn't be angry with you. I'm sorry.
..”
"It's okay, just come back, it's just..." Mother Lin nodded and looked at me with a look of disappointment in her eyes.
She couldn't understand why her daughter, who had always been well-behaved, was kidnapped at such a young age. What was so good about him?
"Mom, listen to me, actually I am here this time..."
Before Lin Wei could finish her words, she heard a surprised voice coming from the room, and heard a strange voice say.
"Auntie, is Lin Wei back?"
After this strange male voice sounded, my face immediately turned gloomy, and then I saw a young man wearing glasses running out of the back room excitedly.
"Lin..." As soon as the man uttered the word "Lin", he was stunned for a moment. Apparently he also saw me standing next to Lin Wei.
Looking at the young man in front of me, whose face turned livid at this moment, I narrowed my eyes slightly, and the corners of my mouth also curved in a dangerous arc.
Short, wearing glasses, high hairline
It seems that this guy is undoubtedly the guy. He is the guy Lin Wei told me yesterday, the guy who came to the Lin family for the purpose of a blind date!
