47. Meeting a parent for the first time
Although it is a banquet, it is actually just a common occurrence.
Cao Yang went to his girlfriend's residence in the imperial capital and found that there were only two future father-in-law and mother-in-law inside, and even a nanny who cooked.
Father-in-law Pei Songyuan has seen him, and he has a handsome, gray-haired middle-aged man.
This is the first time I have seen my mother-in-law.
Pei Siqing's mother is a small southern woman. She is not tall, about 155 to 160. She looks very delicate. Although she has some wrinkles, her smart big eyes and beautiful facial features can vaguely see the charming style of her mother-in-law when she was young.
No wonder my girlfriend is so beautiful, it turns out that she inherited her mother.
Of course, my father-in-law is not bad, but after comparison, you will find that this man is indeed a bit rough.
When he opened the door, Pei Siqing's mother was stunned when she looked at Cao Yang, as if she didn't expect that her future son-in-law was such a handsome young man, who was so handsome.
"Please come in quickly, please come in quickly."
Auntie greeted him.
"Hello auntie."
Cao Yang carried a lot of things, entered the door, changed his shoes, and handed her the two gift boxes in his hand.
"This is a small gift I bought for my aunt, I hope you like it."
When I came to my house for the first time, I had to leave a good impression on my future parents-in-law, so Cao Yang specially asked his secretary to choose a Swarovski crystal necklace.
Then he brought two bottles of Moutai to Pei Songyuan.
Moutai in 2000 is not valuable, and it is less than 400 yuan in total.
However, because it is a national wine, Caoyang cannot find a more advanced one than this one.
He was afraid that Pei Songyuan would not be used to drinking foreign wine, so he didn't buy it.
"Come on, why do you have to bring gifts?" Pei Siqing's mother smiled and took the things in his hand.
In fact, for people like the mine boss, the things Caoyang gave are really insignificant, but it is really unreasonable to have nothing to bring with him when he comes to the door for the first time.
"By the way, it's the first time I've been to my house to play, and we don't know what you like..."
The aunt took out the red envelope that had been prepared from her clothes and handed it to Cao Yang.
Cao Yang was slightly stunned.
Damn, can you still have money to get when you come to your door for the first time?
The red envelopes are bulging, like a small turn of head.
This thickness is at least 20,000 yuan.
In the distance, Pei Songyuan stood in the living room, silently looking at him.
Cao Yang is not a person who likes modesty, so he took the red envelopes on the spot.
"Thank you aunt."
He put the red envelope into his pocket with his backhand.
This wave is not a loss.
...
Pei Siqing's mother took the bag in her hand and frowned, "Qingqing's father is in a bad heart and can't drink. I'll put these two bottles of wine first."
Pei Songyuan looked at Cao Yang bluntly, "I have to drink some with the guests at home."
After saying that, he licked his lips unconsciously.
Pei Songyuan is an old drunkard who has been hiding in business and politics for many years and has to socialize.
But recently, because my heart is not very good, I can only bear the pain of giving up and putting my favorite liquor on the shelf.
Seeing Pei Songyuan's desire to speak but stop, Cao Yang couldn't help but feel a little funny.
The mine boss looks fierce and cold, but he didn't expect that he was a wife who was in charge of it.
"Auntie, I want to drink a little too." Cao Yang said quickly, "Uncle, drink less, it's okay. It's just that my family is lively and lively."
When Pei Siqing's mother heard the three words "her family", she was surprised.
My whole mood has improved a lot.
She hesitated for a moment, "Okay, drink less."
After saying that, Pei Siqing and her mother both entered the kitchen, and the mother and daughter began to arrange today's meals.
"Xiao Cao, you can sit in the living room for a while first, and you will be able to eat soon."
Pei Songyuan and his wife are both from Shiyan, Hubei. Although the whole of Hubei is considered to be south, Shiyan is close to the north and their living habits are similar to those in Henan.
The rule here is that lunch is a regular meal, but dinner is not that important.
"Okay, aunt."
Cao Yang sat down next to his father-in-law with a smile.
"April Day" is being played on TV
Tsk tsk.
Cao Yang sighed in his heart.
Like a father, like a daughter. No wonder Pei Siqing is so literary. It turns out that he was influenced by his father.
April in the world tells the story of the great poet Xu Zhimo and three women in his life. The most exciting one is a love-hate entanglement with Lin Huiyin, the spokesperson of tea art.
The director filmed it very romantically, and the acting skills of Huang Lei and Zhou Xun are beyond words. The literary temperament of the two people perfectly matches the character image. Xu Zhimo and Lin Huiyin are alive.
Cao Yang took a look and couldn't help but feel emotion.
but……
I originally thought Pei Songyuan was a literary youth, but when Cao Yang observed carefully, he found that he was just on his eyes and didn't watch much TV.
He was secretly looking at himself from the corner of his eye.
Mom!
Realizing this, Cao Yang was so scared that his chrysanthemum tightened.
...
The father-in-law and son-in-law sit on the sofa without talking. The more awkward the scene is, the more embarrassing it will be.
It was really at this moment that Cao Yang caught a glimpse of a safe tree in the corner of the wall.
The leaves seemed a little yellow, and a few fallen leaves fell next to them.
"Uncle, this Ping An tree doesn't grow very well," said Cao Yang.
"Um?"
Pei Songyuan looked up and took a look.
"Often her mother lives here, we don't care much. This tree is really strange. It's obviously watered, but why does it wilt?"
But that's right. The house in the imperial capital is just a temporary residence for the mine owner. If it weren't for Pei Siqing's school here and was concerned about her, the mine owner wouldn't have lived here.
Usually, Pei's mother lives here and takes care of her daughter. The two of them don't seem to hire a servant.
So Cao Yang rolled up his sleeves and walked to the side of Ping An Tree, "Uncle, come and help me."
"ha?"
Pei Songyuan scratched his head and rolled up his sleeves.
This safe tree is about one person tall, at least sixty or seventy kilograms.
The two of them bent down, grabbed one side of the flower pot, and walked with unrecognizable relatives, and struggled to move the tree to the balcony.
"Uncle, you don't know that this safe tree is a drought-tolerant plant, and watering is particularly particular. If watering frequently, it will easily rot, but it will be prone to lack of water after too long.
So it has to be watered once a month, and every time it has to be thorough."
In his previous life, Caoyang also raised a safe tree at his family, so he had some experience.
After saying that, Cao Yang picked up the faucet next to him, watered down the trunk, and watered the soil thoroughly.
The water below flows in direct flow.
Pei Songyuan saw Cao Yang talking very well and his hands were very quick, and his eyes lit up.
This guy is OK.
He is a person with life experience.
He is diligent in his hands and feet.
