Chapter 569 Just buy two bottles of Erguotou next time
After Zhou Yinghong watched her youngest son and his prospective daughter-in-law leave, she quickly asked her elder brother: "Zekai, has your brother gone to see Xiao Shen's parents?"
Seeing the boss nodding, Zhou Yinghong complained: "Naughty kid, why didn't he tell me about such a big thing?"
"Mom, Zejiang just went to Xiao Shen's house to meet him at the end of last month. Maybe he hasn't had time to tell you yet!" Xia Zekai explained to his brother.
But the more she explained, the more she couldn't do it. Zhou Yinghong muttered, "It's been a month. I see that you have really grown up and your wings have become stronger. You don't tell me anything anymore."
"Mom, it's nothing, don't think too much about it." Luo Xiyun came over and held Zhou Yinghong's hand and said, "Isn't this a normal thing? I didn't tell my mother when I followed Zekai home.
Yeah, that’s what I said later.”
The daughter-in-law talked more and took care of things, so Zhou Yinghong stopped caring about it. She thought for a while and then asked: "Zekai, do you think I will meet Xiao Shen's parents when I come here this time to discuss their affairs?"
It’s given.”
She said: "Now that we are grown up, it is time to consider getting married and having children."
Her younger son was not sure yet, so she was worried.
Xia Zekai thought it would be okay to meet. After all, his brother and Xiao Shen had bought a house in advance, and Xiao Shen's parents also gave them 50,000 yuan in "renovation money." What did this mean?
Just a daughter has made it this far, shouldn't their family also do something to show off?
At least come up with an attitude.
"Mom, how about this? I'll call Zejiang later and ask him what he means, and also ask him to ask Xiao Shen's parents what they mean." Xia Zekai thought more carefully.
He continued: "Otherwise, if we come to the door rashly, people will not be prepared and they will be embarrassed."
Zhou Yinghong felt that the boss was right. She said: "Zekai, you have considered everything comprehensively. Your brother went to school in vain and is far behind you."
"..." Xia Zekai said nothing.
Grandpa Xia Shande is entertaining some children.
Yatou, Tongtong and Amy were running around him. Although Xia Jingrui was older, he spent less time with the old man, so he felt strange.
The eldest brother's niece Xia Yuxi was sitting quietly next to her mother Li Aijuan. The mother and daughter did not know what happy things they said, and Xia Yuxi covered her mouth and giggled.
Two old brothers, Xia Weiguo and Xia Weicheng, also got together. Xia Weiguo gave his younger brother a thousand warnings to drink less and smoke less in the future.
After the last time he had a headache due to high blood pressure, he now feels more and more uncomfortable.
"Acropolis, don't be like me. You still have to exercise when you should. Now that life is getting better, you have to live as long as possible."
Xia Zekai and his eldest and second brothers got together and chatted.
Leaving the children in the living room to play by themselves, Luo Xiyun had already gone to the kitchen to cook with her elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law.
We didn't go out to eat anymore. There were a lot of good things in the refrigerator and freezer in Xia Zekai's kitchen. They took out what needed to be defrosted and what needed to be processed. The three of them were busy at all.
Sister-in-law Li Aijuan also said: "Xiyun, your kitchen is really big and spacious. The three of us won't be crowded here. If you want to buy a house, you still have to buy a large square meter."
"It's not easy for my sister-in-law to buy one. My eldest brother is making a lot of money now. If you find a suitable place, just buy one," Luo Xiyun said.
The eldest brother, Xia Yunfei, now has two trucks running continuously. Although the job of transportation is tiring, the big truck is now gaining momentum. After deducting all expenses, he can make tens of thousands of dollars a month.
It doesn’t take much, it’s very easy to save for a year and pay the down payment to buy a house.
Li Aijuan smiled and said: "No, let's save some money first and see what happens."
"Yeah!" Luo Xiyun didn't try to persuade him anymore. Everyone has their own way of living.
The three of them worked together to cook quickly. Within an hour, a large table full of dishes was prepared.
The large dining table used by the family was a bit crowded when they all sat around the table. In the end, they were separated, and the men among them took half of the dishes and went to eat at the small dining table next to it.
Uncle Xia Weiguo also said: "Zekai, give Zejiang a call and ask to see if he is back."
"I'm definitely not coming back." Xia Zekai was worried, but he still made the call.
The fact was just as Xia Zekai expected, his younger brother was left to eat by his prospective father-in-law and mother-in-law, and the couple refused to let him go at all.
By the way, he said that his parents wanted to meet Shen Jiayi's parents and asked him to ask Xiao Shen what his parents meant.
"Uncle, let's leave him alone and let's eat first."
…
On the other side, in Zhoucheng Construction Community, Shen Jiayi's home.
Xia Zejiang was really ruthless. Before leaving, he moved a box of Feitian Maotai from his brother's basement and left directly.
Shen Jiayi complained about him a lot.
But when he arrived at her home with this box of wine, Shen Qishan's eyes immediately lit up.
He kept saying: "Xiaoxia, why did you buy such expensive wine again?"
"Uncle, you can drink if you like." How dare he say that this was to steal his brother's wine.
Shen Jiayi didn't expose him either.
Tang Wanqiu was already busy cooking.
Even though she was cleaning up all by herself, her speed was not slow at all.
"Jiayi, come here and bring the fruit." Tang Wanqiu shouted.
After Shen Jiayi went to the kitchen, she asked in a low voice: "Jiayi, Xiaoxia has been good to you and didn't bully you."
The reason for carrying things together was that she wanted to use this space to ask some personal questions.
Shen Jiayi said 'hmm': "He is very good to me, Mom, don't worry."
"It's good that I didn't bully you. Okay, hurry up and take it over." Tang Wanqiu breathed a sigh of relief.
During the meal, Xia Zejiang must have two drinks with his 'father-in-law-to-be'.
He went straight over and opened the box of Maotai. Only then did Tang Wanqiu notice that the 'prospective son-in-law' had brought a box of Maotai over.
She said with some complaints: "Xiao Xia, why did you spend so much money again? Just come over and buy him two bottles of Erguotou in the future. He is not a high-ranking official. Why do you buy him such expensive things?
I can’t taste the drink.”
"It hurts my heart!"
Shen Qishan felt that his heart was not feeling well and the pain was severe.
Shen Jiayi looked at it and wanted to laugh, feeling particularly at ease in her heart.
Xia Zejiang also agreed wholeheartedly, but it was hard to say whether he would do it or not.
"Uncle and aunt, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I would like to take this opportunity to toast you two. I wish you health and longevity and happiness every day." Xia Zejiang said.
Shen Qishan must have drank this wine. Tang Wanqiu and Shen Jiayi poured Huiyuan juice into their glasses. She was very happy when she heard what Xia Zejiang said.
My son-in-law has such a cute mouth.
"Xiao Xia, you too." Tang Wanqiu said: "I am just a daughter, Jiayi, and I don't ask for anything else. Just stay together and don't fight. Noisy and stumbling are always inevitable. If anything happens in the future
If you can't solve something, just tell me and I'll teach her a lesson."
"If you really encounter any difficulties that you can't get over, you two should just be quiet. Don't get so angry that you rush to talk. It will be too late to regret it by then."
Shen Qishan also nodded: "Your aunt and I don't have much ability, but we have been walking together for thirty years, and we have experienced quite a lot. I can see that Xiaoxia, you are an honest child, and you can take good care of yourself." We can rest assured that Yi will be left to you."
"Drink, let's have a drink together and be reunited!" Shen Qishan had something on his mind, so he raised his head and drank.
Xia Zejiang felt so proud after being told by his second elder that he also took a big sip.
However, Shen Jiayi's eyes turned a little red after being said.
Just as he was about to drink his second drink, Xia Zejiang received a call from his brother.
Shen Qishan and Tang Wanqiu watched him finish the phone call and asked him, "Did your brother call him and ask you to go back to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary?"
Shen Jiayi, who was sitting next to her, was quite nervous. In her heart, she really hoped that Xia Zejiang would stay and spend her fifteenth year at their house.
"Well, my brother called me. I won't go back. I will drink with my uncle first." Xia Zejiang said with a smile.
Shen Jiayi couldn't hide the smile on her face.
Tang Wanqiu was also happy. She said, "It's a big holiday, so don't drink too much. Let's just talk together."
"Auntie, there is one more thing." Xia Zejiang mentioned it.
"My parents just came here today. They want to meet you. Is it convenient for you?" Xia Zejiang looked at Shen Qishan and Tang Wanqiu and asked.
Is this a meeting between in-laws?
Tang Wanqiu subconsciously looked at her wife Shen Qishan.
In this family, Tang Wanqiu has the final say on trivial matters, but Shen Qishan has the final say on major matters.
Of course, ninety-nine percent of things at home are trivial.
Shen Qishan pondered for a while, and when his daughter looked at him nervously, he finally said: "Let's meet, you two are not young anymore, it's time to think about the next step."
"Hey, uncle, let me tell them first. Do you think you have time tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?" Xia Zejiang asked.
"Then let's do it tomorrow!" Shen Qishan thought about it and couldn't push this matter away.
It is better to meet early than to meet late. The two parties know each other, and the matter of the two children has been settled.
Then I'll give them a call and tell them.
…
It was almost ten o'clock when Xia Zejiang left his girlfriend's house in the evening. He took a taxi directly back to Qicheng and arrived there in half an hour.
The fare was more than 30, so Xia Zejiang gave him 50 and said, "Master, it's not easy for you to celebrate the holidays, so there's no need to look for it."
People even come out to run taxis during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Who wouldn’t want to spend this time peacefully with the family having a lively Reunion Festival?
When Xia Zejiang came in, the TV in the living room was still on, and his three brothers were still sitting around the coffee table drinking tea and eating melon seeds.
The three sisters-in-law gathered together to chat. The children couldn't bear to sleep anymore, and the grandfather couldn't stand it anymore and went to rest long ago.
The uncle has high blood pressure and feels dizzy after going to bed late. However, Xia Weicheng and Zhou Yinghong, the old couple, have been waiting for their youngest son's letter and haven't slept yet.
