Chapter Fourteen: A White Face and a Black Face
In order to face the test of Su Yun's parents, Xu Jie made a lot of preparations.
For example: He once took the initiative to ask Su Yun for photos of the other party's family, so when he saw the old man holding a knife, he immediately knew that this was Su Yun's father, Su Changzhi.
In particular, the other party exuded an aura that could only be seen at the top of the food chain. He was worthy of being the dean of the School of Veterinary Medicine, and he would disembowel animals at first sight.
Xu Jie has experienced many dangerous scenes in his life. When he was a child, he was chased by dogs and pigged. When he was a little older, he got into group fights and was blocked by people. However, compared with the situation he faced, all of these were nothing.
Not worth mentioning.
I remember that when I was a child, I went to a fortune teller in the village who said that he would suffer a bloody disaster before he turned 100, which must be today.
The short first half of my life flashed through my mind like a revolving lantern.
At this moment, he stood upright with his head held high, his face light and calm, which was the last light of life blooming.
Brother, give me a good time!
"Dad, what are you...?" Su Yun stared at the kitchen knife in her father's hand.
Su Changzhi glanced down, quickly put the kitchen knife behind his back, and said sheepishly: "Ah, I was killing fish in the kitchen just now."
Xu Jie's hands trembled.
Are you sure you are killing fish, not "fish" to scare monkeys?
"Dad, put the kitchen knife back quickly. How can anyone greet someone with a knife?" Su Yun said.
After hearing this, Su Changzhi glanced at Xu Jie, turned back to the kitchen, put down the knife with a "pop", took off his apron, turned on the faucet and washed his hands.
Su Yun pulled Xu Jie inside and shouted into the room, "Mom, I brought Xu Jie back to you."
Xu Jie swallowed and spit.
We have come here, even if there is a lion and camel cave inside, we still have to bite the bullet and go in today.
do my best!
Just as he walked in the door, a dignified middle-aged woman came from the living room. She looked about fifty, with rimless eyes, short ear-length hair and smooth hair, and a light mark on her face without makeup.
The crow's feet are simple, peaceful, but also very serious.
Xu Jie knew that this was Su Yun's mother Zhang Simin, so he quickly bent down to salute and greeted politely: "Hello, aunt, I am..."
Su Yun crooked Xu Jie with her arm, interrupted him, and corrected her: "What aunt? Call me mom."
Xu Jie was a little embarrassed, but finally listened to Su Yun's words and called out honestly: "Mom, hello, I'm Xu Jie, this is a gift for you and your uncle... dad, it's not a respectful gift.
"
Zhang Simin stroked her glasses and glanced sharply at Xu Jie's face. She said nothing until she nodded lightly.
Xu Jie's heart skipped a beat, as he was indeed dissatisfied with his son-in-law.
Su Changzhi walked out of the kitchen after wiping his hands. He put down his rolled-up sleeves and took the gift box from Xu Jie's hand. He said cheerfully, "Come here, bring any gifts. You're not an outsider. Sit down."
"
this……
Xu Jie was a little confused looking at his enthusiastic father-in-law.
Why is it completely different from what he imagined?
Let's put it this way, I wasn't even that surprised when I saw the other person holding a knife.
Moreover, the attitude of the old couple was so different that Su Yun's mother's bland reaction was more acceptable to him.
Well, one has a black face and the other has a white face. It seems that there will be a lot of talk today!
"Click!"
At this time, another young man came out of the room.
The other person was in his early twenties, not much younger than him, about the same height, but he looked lethargic. Not only was his face pale, he also had dark circles under his eyes, and his hair was as messy as a bird's nest. He looked like a decadent young man.
"You must be Su Yun's younger brother. I often hear her mention you. Hello." Xu Jie greeted with a smile.
However, the other party then glanced at him indifferently, took the gift box, rummaged through it, and said with disgust: "Tea and skin care products, you didn't get anything else?"
After hearing this, Xu Jie stood there awkwardly and secretly cast doubtful glances at Su Yun.
Didn’t I say that all the gifts are ready?
The tea is for your father and the skin care products are for your mother. What about your brother?
Su Yun did not answer, but looked at her brother and asked, "Another all-night game?"
"No, we only played until 5 o'clock." The younger brother opened his mouth and yawned.
"You haven't found a job yet?" Su Yun frowned.
"How is it possible that they can't be found? I, Su Lei, am handsome and talented. There is no chance of me being unsuccessful when I apply for the job. It's just that I don't like them." Su Lei said lazily.
"Humph!" Su Yun snorted coldly.
Xu Jie looked at Su Yun and her brother strangely. Why did the two siblings seem to have a grudge?
"Stop standing, sit down, Xiao Xu, come and sit." Su Changzhi stepped in to smooth things over, sitting on the sofa and greeting Xu Jie.
Xu Jie walked towards the sofa.
Just as Su Yun was about to follow, she was grabbed by her mother next to her.
"Yunyun, come to my study." Zhang Simin said calmly, turned and walked into the study.
Xu Jie's heart tightened, what was supposed to come had come.
Separate the two people first, and then directly show off. Isn't this how it is played in TV dramas?
What to do next?
To accept bank cards or not?
He looked at Su Yun unconsciously. Su Yun also felt his gaze, immediately looked over and nodded to express comfort, and then entered her mother's study.
ah?
Xu Jie stared blankly at Su Yun's back.
Why are you nodding? Do you want me to accept the card?
"Xiao Xu, what are you doing standing still? Come here." Su Changzhi waved again.
Xu Jie calmed down and calmed down.
It is better to be angry than to strive for success, and it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others.
He walked to sit down opposite Su Yun's father, raised his chest and raised his head, and sat upright. He knew that the next step was the interview phase of "questions" and "answers".
"Xiao Xu, Yunyun said you work at Beijing TV Station?" Su Changzhi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xu Jie.
Xu Jie quickly stood up and took it with both hands, but he didn't drink it. He was afraid that he would go to the bathroom if he drank too much.
"I am now a reporter in the "Serving the People's Livelihood" column of the Beijing TV Life Channel." Xu Jie replied in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
"No wonder you looked familiar when I saw you just now. I should have seen you on TV." Su Changzhi said while recalling.
"Because the purpose of our column is to solve all kinds of problems that people face in life, we reporters need to travel abroad frequently." Xu Jie explained.
"Well, that's right!" Su Changzhi nodded, "Serving the people's livelihood means serving the people. There are no small things around the people, but what you do is the most real and big thing. It's easy, but it must be very hard, right?"
"It's not hard. I like this job."
Xu Jie felt something was wrong when he heard it. Why was he exaggerating?
Shouldn't he be sarcastic and throw out a bank card?
Why don't you act according to common sense?
Do you want to put him on a rack and roast him?
To put it bluntly, you start by praising him vigorously, talking about high culture, high level, high consciousness, and high realm, and then follow the trend and express your ideas so that he has no choice but to accept them.
Humph, that’s too much!
Not even a bank card.
"Xiao Xu, do your parents know about you and Yunyun's registration?" Su Changzhi asked cheerfully.
"I know." Xu Jie nodded.
"known long time ago?"
"Just found out."
"Oh, do they agree?" Su Changzhi stared at Xu Jie and said, "In other words, our family has been pampered since childhood. She does everything with passion for three minutes without considering the consequences. Just like this marriage, she only told her parents after getting the certificate.
, too willful, alas.”
Xu Jie was shocked and immediately became alert.
Thought: Here it comes!
The fox tail is finally revealed!
