After hearing what their daughter said, and what they had just seen with their own eyes, the 'rumored big boss' Xia Zekai was indeed very approachable. Shen Qishan and Tang Wanqiu looked at each other, and the string hanging in their hearts finally relaxed. .
"Jiayi, look at your hair. It's almost a mess. Go clean it up and leave quickly. Don't make Xiaoxia's parents wait in a hurry." Tang Wanqiu said to her.
Shen Jiayi glanced sideways at her mother and was about to speak when brothers Xia Zekai and Xia Zejiang came up with several beautifully wrapped gift boxes in their left and right hands.
"Hey, Xiaoxia, why did you bring so many things again?" Tang Wanqiu was so happy that it could already be seen on her face.
Xia Zekai said: "Aunt, my brother is not sensible. If there is anything he doesn't do well, please be more considerate in the future."
Looking at their speaking skills, Tang Wanqiu and Shen Qishan felt that they had received enough attention, and they both happily stopped talking.
Tang Wanqiu hurriedly urged her daughter to tie her braids, and she also helped her. Finish it quickly and leave early.
Shen Qishan took out the best tea at home and brewed it. When he first smelled it, it smelled like wheat, and the tea soup was light red and particularly translucent.
"Xiaoxia, you have a cup of tea first." Shen Qishan didn't know what to shout.
Calling him by name or Boss Xia didn't seem to be a good idea. In the end, I had no choice, so I just called him "prospective son-in-law". Anyway, no matter how you look at Xia Zekai's face, he is not particularly old.
Xia Zekai gave in and said, "Uncle, please stop working. Ze Jiang and I can do whatever we want."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Xia Zekai stopped talking. Shen Qishan stood up and went to open the door. Standing at the door were two uncles around fifty years old, and Shen Qishan's About the same age.
When they saw Shen Qishan, they asked: "Lao Shen, I saw there was a car parked downstairs at your house, and there were people taking things up. They said it was your son-in-law who came. I was wondering why I came up to take a look at my niece's son-in-law. That’s it.”
"You old guy, you came here empty-handed to see your niece-in-law. You didn't even bring a red envelope for the meeting." Shen Qishan said this, but he still opened the door to let them in.
As soon as the two of them entered the house, they saw two young people in their old friend's house. One of them looked very mature and always had a vague aura about him, which made them dare not look at each other.
The other one still has a childish look on his face, it seems to be him.
"Xiao Xia, this is your Uncle Xiao, and the fat one is your Uncle Wang. They are both my old colleagues for many years. They also live in the same building, not in the same unit." Shen Qishan told Xia Zejiang.
After Xia Zejiang heard this, he quickly stood up and shouted "Uncle Xiao, Uncle Wang" twice.
Sure enough, I guessed it right, but who is the other young man? Why does he still look familiar?
But I just can't remember where I met.
The middle-aged uncle named Wang whispered to his companion: "Old Xiao, do you think that young man looks familiar?"
The middle-aged uncle named Xiao blinked and looked at Xia Zekai carefully for a while, but still didn't remember.
For the sake of his younger brother, Xia Zekai didn't make things difficult for them and shook hands with them one by one.
Seeing this scene, Shen Qishan felt more at ease.
After Tang Wanqiu had braided her hair, she also warned her: "Jiayi, don't let people go crazy after the situation is over. It won't be good if Xiaoxia and his parents see it."
"Mom, am I as unbearable as you say?" Shen Jiayi didn't want to talk to her mother anymore.
Hearing the commotion outside, Tang Wanqiu said: "It must be your Uncle Xiao and Uncle Wang who are here again, but we don't have time to entertain them today, so let's leave as soon as possible. Xiaoxia's parents are still waiting in the hotel!"
The mother and daughter came out and spoke a few words to the two people who had just arrived, explained the situation to them, and then the group went directly downstairs.
Xia Zekai drove the car himself. Xia Zejiang gave up the passenger seat to his father-in-law Shen Qishan. Tang Wanqiu and Shen Jiayi, mother and daughter, sat in the middle seats. Xia Zejiang smartly went to nest in the back.
…
After they left, Lao Wang and Lao Xiao, who had just gone to Shen Qishan's house, were still downstairs. They muttered: "The young man just took so many things, and the living room of Lao Shen's house was full." .”
"Isn't it just that when will my daughter find a son-in-law like this?" Lao Wang said.
Lao Xiao curled his lips and said, "I think it's a bit difficult. Speaking of which, isn't your daughter currently talking about something? How is their talk going? When can we get an accurate report?"
"Don't mention it. It's not upsetting enough to say it. That kid is not very good at things. He's too stingy."
At this point, Lao Wang quickly clarified: "Lao Xiao, I'm not coveting his little things, but think about it, they have been talking for a while, and the child brought a bag of fruit when he followed my daughter to the house. Come here, you are so sincere. For such a big matter, you must at least show an attitude, but I don't see it at all."
"It's true." Lao Wang shook his head and said, "Compared with Lao Shen, his 'prospective son-in-law', the difference is not the slightest bit different."
"Yeah, when you say that, it's really what happened. I heard that the prospective son-in-law of Old Shen's family brought a box of Wuliangye to Old Shen when he came to the house for the first time, and also bought it for his wife. A gold bracelet worth more than 6,000 yuan, tsk tsk!”
"Hey, you've never heard of it. That old lady Tang Wanqiu has been talking about it all day long. She goes to work every day with that 20-gram gold bracelet. It's spread throughout their entire workshop. It's really I am so envious of all my old colleagues." Lao Wang was very disdainful, but there was unstoppable envy in his eyes.
His family is also a daughter. When he went up just now, he saw a box of Feitian Maotai that had just been opened next to the old Shen's sofa.
Anyway, Lao Shen would definitely not spend his own money to buy such expensive wine. Combined with the gift of Wuliangye last time, it is obvious who sent the wine.
"Xiao Xia..." Lao Wang muttered, and a bright light flashed in his dim head. The next moment, he slapped his head and said, "Oh, I know who that person is."
"Who, which person?"
"That's the young man who came here with Lao Shen and his son-in-law. He opened some kind of factory, and he was even featured in our Qicheng News. Lao Xiao, please remember that I told you, no, have you met the city leaders?" That young man, what is his name..."
"Look at my old brain. I just can't remember the names on my lips."
…
After getting in the car, Shen Qishan and Tang Wanqiu stopped talking.
Objectively speaking, the old couple were very nervous. Next to them was a big boss with a net worth of over 100 million who drove them personally and came to pick them up for dinner. This treatment and feeling made them feel very panicked!
They didn't say a few words along the way, but the car stopped at some point. Xia Zekai shouted: "Uncle, aunt, we're here."
"Jiazhou Hotel." Shen Qishan silently glanced at the five big characters on the door and said nothing.
For them, spending money here feels expensive and not cost-effective, but for the young man next to them, it should be easier than drinking a bowl of cold water.
The old couple stopped talking nonsense so as not to make people laugh.
After getting out of the car, Xia Zekai found a parking space.
Zhou Yinghong was playing with her granddaughter in the hotel lobby when she saw her youngest son and soon-to-be daughter-in-law Xiao Shen.
There are two people next to them who are about the same age as the couple. Are these the in-laws and their mother-in-law?
She quickly called her wife to greet her.
Daughter-in-law Luo Xiyun was sitting on the sofa in the lobby, not knowing what she was looking at. At this time, someone came over, and she also shouted: "Xiyun, they are here."
"Mom, I'll be right over." Luo Xiyun put away her phone and hurried over.
There was nothing wrong with the meeting between the two families. Even though the two families had never interacted before, this did not affect the four old people's eyes and focus on the two young people, Xia Zejiang and Shen Jiayi.
During the meal, Xia Zekai personally ordered the food. The food was served very quickly in the restaurant. All he could say was, 'When the money is in place, the service will also be in place.'
Shen Qishan and Tang Wanqiu had been working in the factory, and there was a serious deviation from Xia Weicheng and Zhou Yinghong in terms of consumption, knowledge and discussion.
But this did not affect any relationship.
And Xia Zekai was there to take care of everything, always able to bring the topic back at critical moments.
In addition, both of them have the same purpose, hoping that Shen Jiayi and Xia Zejiang will live well in the future.
Starting from this goal, they finally talked very harmoniously.
After their first formal meeting, when they separated, Tang Wanqiu and Zhou Yinghong, two mothers, were still reluctant to leave. Zhou Yinghong also wanted to discuss the engagement between her son and his 'prospective daughter-in-law'.
She was really anxious and wished her son would get married this year.
Xia Zekai originally thought of sending Shen Jiayi and his family back to the construction community first, but Shen Qishan refused to agree. Finally, after watching them get into a taxi, Xia Zekai drove his parents back to Qicheng.
Shen Jiayi didn't come with her this time. She finally had three days off for the Mid-Autumn Festival. She definitely wanted to spend time with her parents at home.
Grandpa Xia Shande had lunch at his second brother's place. What surprised Xia Zekai was that his cousins Zhao Ting and cousin Zhao Yan also came over.
"Brother, my grandpa is here, and you didn't even say anything to me. It's a bit boring." Zhao Ting complained.
Zhao Yan also nodded: "Brother, I won't criticize you this time. If I do it again next time, I will support you for a month."
"Yan'er, have you been living a good life lately? I see that you have grown a lot horizontally." Xia Zekai teased her.
Zhao Yan was so angry that she wanted to scratch someone.
Her weight has been almost the same for two days recently, and every time she weighs herself, there are new changes, which is amazing!
"Second uncle, listen to what my brother is saying and leave him alone," Zhao Yan said.
