Chapter 394 Father-in-law and mother-in-law arrive
February 6th, airport.
The twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month coincides with the peak of Spring Festival travel. In recent years, as the living standards of domestic people have improved, more and more people are traveling by plane. Now the airport is as crowded as a train station.
Sunglasses, a mask, and a peaked cap are all must-haves for celebrities. Cheng Hao, who is fully armed, is anxiously waiting at the door where domestic passengers arrive. He checks the time from time to time and glances at the large scrolling screen in the airport lobby.
Fortunately, she has already had experience as she often travels abroad. The punctuality rate of domestic flights these days is indeed very impressive, and nine out of ten flights will be delayed.
It's the same today. According to the normal flight departure and landing information, Cheng's parents and Cheng's mother should have arrived by now, but it turned out that they had to wait for nearly half an hour longer and no one came out.
Last year He Xin did not go back to Qingdao to celebrate the New Year because he was busy with filming. It is the same this year and he will fly to Germany on the first day of the new year.
The crew of "Wulin Gaiden" hurriedly managed to get a week's vacation, from the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month to the fourth day of the lunar new year, and resumed work as normal on the fifth day of the lunar month.
The couple originally planned to fly back to Qingdao together today, and then rush back alone to celebrate New Year's Eve on New Year's Eve. But when Cheng's parents learned about the situation, they figured it out and said, forget it, don't let the children rush.
The couple simply came to Beijing to celebrate the New Year.
By the way, the old couple have not seen the new house they bought here in He Xin. In addition, for so many years, especially since Dad Cheng fell ill, the old couple have never left Qingdao. They just took this opportunity to visit the great capital.
trip.
Cheng Hao was both happy and nervous about the arrival of his parents, mainly because it would expose the fact that the two had already lived together. Although both parties knew about this, they still thought of his mother's love for him.
After all the instructions and my mother's usual temper, Cheng Hao was really worried.
"Passengers please note..."
At this time, the radio in the lobby began to speak. Lu Xiao, who had been beside him, held his breath and listened carefully for a while, then his eyes lit up and he said: "Sister, the passengers on the flight from Qingdao will be coming out soon."
After the crew finished work yesterday afternoon, Cheng Hao gave his assistant Chu Qing a day off. Xiao Luzi is still working at Sister Hong's company as usual at the moment, and will not officially take a day off until tomorrow. Considering that the space in his Malian Liu home is too small,
He was also worried that Cheng’s father and Cheng’s mother had too much luggage. He Xin simply asked Xiao Luzi to drive the company’s business car to accompany his girlfriend to the airport to pick them up, while he went out early in the morning to buy groceries and worked at home to prepare for his husband’s first visit to the house.
The mother-in-law is preparing a banquet to welcome the wind.
As soon as the exit opened, the passengers who got off the plane dragged their luggage out in twos and threes. The number of people on a flight was limited, unlike the rush of people at the train station, so it was very easy to recognize people.
"Dad! Mom!"
Cheng Hao stood on tiptoes and waved vigorously.
Most people wouldn't recognize her as a heartthrob with her appearance, but her parents could tell right away.
Father Cheng, who had a slight stoop, and Mother Cheng, who was fat and strong-looking, pushed the luggage cart towards her.
"Mom and Dad, are you tired from the journey?"
Cheng Hao quickly stepped forward to help Dad Cheng.
Xiao Luzi, who was always very winking, hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Hello, uncle and aunt, let me do it, aunt!"
"This is……"
Cheng's mother was stunned when she saw a strange young man.
Cheng Hao quickly introduced: "This is Lu Xiao, He Xin's assistant."
"Oh, it turns out he's Xiao He's assistant!"
When Cheng Ma saw that her son-in-law had found a male assistant, she immediately smiled and nodded, and at the same time said politely to Xiao Luzi: "Xiao Luzi, please."
Dad Cheng also said: "Xiao Lu, thank you for your hard work!"
"Uncle and aunt, you're welcome, this is what I should do."
Dad Cheng also looked around and asked, "What about Xiao He?"
"He's cooking at home! He's still busy early this morning. It's your first time in the capital, so he has to behave well and flatter you!" Cheng Hao said with a smile.
Cheng's mother was not happy when she heard this, and lectured: "You girl, how can you talk, what are you trying to do to flatter me? Xiao He means this!"
"Okay, okay, everything is fine with your Xiaohe, right?"
Cheng's mother was even more unhappy. She rolled her eyes and said, "What do you mean by your family? Are you not a member of the family?"
"Okay, my daughter is kidding you!" Dad Cheng said hurriedly to smooth things over.
"That's right, Dad, you see my mom's temper is getting worse and worse. She's so angry that she can't even make jokes. She's so boring!" Cheng Hao hugged Dad Cheng's arm and pouted.
"What's so boring? Speak up!" Cheng's mother stared at the side.
"Okay, okay, let's go quickly. The plane is going to be delayed, so don't let Xiao He wait at home!"
Dad Cheng is also helpless. He is also the target of suppression by Mom Cheng at home and has no human rights.
"That's right, let's go!"
Lu Xiao moved quickly and asked Cheng Hao to accompany Cheng's parents and Cheng's mother to wait at the door for a while. He drove the car over first, and then drove the three members of the Cheng family all the way to the city.
All the way along the airport expressway, entering the city and looking at the high-rise buildings on both sides, Dad Cheng couldn't get enough of them. He sighed: "I came to Beijing on a business trip the year the Asian Games was held. In the past ten years, Beijing's
What a big change!”
"Ah? Dad, did you come to the capital during the 1990 Asian Games?" Cheng Hao said in surprise.
"Yeah, you were still in elementary school at that time!" Dad Cheng said with a smile.
Cheng Ma, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also turned around and said, "Have you forgotten? That year your dad brought back the Poria Cake that the Empress Dowager Cixi ate, and you secretly took it to school to show off!"
Cheng Hao, who has gone to university in the capital for four years, of course now knows what that kind of poria cake is, but in front of Xiao Luzi, when my mother talked about the embarrassing things she had done when she was a child, her face was inevitably a little confused, and she pursed her lips and muttered.
Said: "It's just that paper-like thing, what's so delicious about it!"
Dad Cheng has been ill for many years and finally went out again. He still visited his old place and said with emotion: "Yes, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Think about it when I came to Beijing, because the Asian Games were being held.
Yes, there were so many people coming to the capital, and hotels of all sizes were packed with people. I couldn’t find a place to stay at that time, so my colleagues and I who were on business trips together slept in Tiananmen Square.”
"Ah, just sleep in the open air?" Cheng Hao asked again in surprise.
"Yeah, there were a lot of people in the square at that time, and they were all people who couldn't find a place to live. I remember that the square was really clean at that time, and there was no dust at all. There were two newspapers spread out in the square, and my luggage was used as a pillow. It was safe and cool.
, but the stones on the ground are a bit hard, so it’s inevitable that you will have back pain when you wake up in the morning." Dad Cheng said with a smile.
It was approaching the end of the New Year, and more than half of the foreign population had disappeared from Beijing. The roads were very ordinary. After a while, the car turned from the Airport Expressway to East Third Ring Road North.
"Dad, Mom, look, this is the Workers' Gym!"
Cheng Hao pointed to the majestic stadium not far away, and then pointed to a few tall buildings with unique shapes in the buildings and said: "Those buildings are the community we live in now."
"Where is it?" Cheng Ma asked hurriedly.
"Here! Here!"
Cheng's mother looked hard in the direction of Cheng Hao's finger and praised: "The house is really nice. I'm afraid this is the city center, right?"
"Of course, it's right next to the Workers' Stadium, so it's in the city center!" Dad Cheng, who has been here before, said proudly.
"Hey, houses in this area are very expensive, right?" Cheng's mother asked her daughter quietly.
Since last year, housing prices across the country have skyrocketed seemingly overnight. When the Cheng family bought a house in Qingdao a few years ago, the house price of RMB 3,500 was too expensive. Unexpectedly, the second-hand housing prices in their community have almost doubled now.
Doubled.
"He bought it early, and the internal price was still a little over 6,000, but now the house price here has risen to over 10,000," Cheng Hao said with a smile.
When it comes to buying a house, she really admires her boyfriend. For example, the two of them bought a large flat-floor house next to Xujiahui in Shanghai the year before last. Now the price has increased by nearly one million. The investment
The income is staggering.
Some time ago, when she saw that her profits were good and her boyfriend's investment in TV series was tight, she wanted to discuss with her boyfriend whether to take action. As a result, her boyfriend was very precise, saying that everything can be sold these days, but houses cannot be sold.
But now that I think about it, it does make sense. In just a few months, the housing prices there have increased by as much as 2,000 yuan per square meter. This housing price is almost like taking a helicopter.
"Well, Xiao He still has the ability!"
Now when Cheng Ma looks at He Xin, she is definitely the kind of mother-in-law who becomes happier the more she looks at her son-in-law.
"Uncle and aunt, did you have a hard time flying?"
He Xin, still wearing a cooking apron, stood at the door to greet him. Ever since he went back to Qingdao for a visit, he hadn't seen him for more than half a year.
Cheng's mother also looked at him carefully and said distressedly: "Xiao He, you have lost weight and become darker!"
When Cheng Hao saw his mother's appearance, he couldn't help but said sourly: "It's darker, but why have you lost weight? You are obviously fatter than before, okay?"
Dad Cheng was attracted by the decoration of the house as soon as he entered. He didn't even bother to change his shoes. He stood at the door and looked around and said, "Xiao He, your house is quite well decorated."
He Xin said modestly: "It's not bad. It just so happens that my agent's husband is a designer. When we were renovating it, I asked him to help with the design."
After saying that, he hurriedly greeted: "Uncle and aunt, please come in quickly! Take a short rest, we will have dinner in a while."
At the same time, he also said to Xiao Luzi who was following behind with his luggage: "Xiao Lu, you have to eat before you leave."
"Brother, I won't bother you. Besides, the company has other things to do!" Xiao Luzi hurriedly declined.
"Xiao Lu, why are you so polite? Besides, you are Xiao He's assistant, not an outsider." Cheng Ma also said quickly.
She had been sitting in the passenger seat along the way and had a very good impression of this young man. And as a family member of a celebrity, Cheng Ma knew that assistants were generally not outsiders, just like her own daughter's assistant, and she treated him as half a daughter.
Xiao Luzi smiled wisely and said: "Thank you, auntie, the company is also sending out new year's goods today. I'm afraid I won't be able to pick out good ones if I get there late."
Although everyone knew that Xiao Luzi was using this as an excuse, it was not easy to force him to stay.
"Hey, Xiao Lu, please wait a moment."
After Cheng Hao said this, he took two sticks of Chinese cigarettes, two bottles of Maotai liquor, and a large bag containing a complete set of cosmetics from the storage room. He handed them to him and said: "Your brother prepared the cigarettes and alcohol early in the morning.
Also, this cosmetic is endorsed by me. Although it is made in China, the quality is very good and I use it myself. You can take it back and give it to your mother to try."
Both the couple knew about the situation in Xiao Luzi's family. They were from a family of intellectuals. Old Lu loved to smoke, drink and get hot... He just loved smoking and drinking. Lu's mother was said to be very fashionable.
"Hey, sister, you are too polite, I can't take it!" Xiao Luzi hurriedly declined again.
Cheng Hao said with a straight face: "These things are for me and your brother to honor your parents and have nothing to do with you!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Luzi had no choice but to accept it, and at the same time said gratefully: "Thank you, sister, and thank you brother!"
Cheng Hao then smiled and said: "It's all because of my own family members. Remember to help me and your brother say hello to your parents for the New Year when you go back!"
"Hey, sister, brother, uncle and aunt, see you next year!"
