After Xu Jingtian finished speaking, he accompanied the old man and the old lady and sat down around the stone table in the courtyard.
"Okay, it's not bad to sit outside in this weather. We can just sit outside and chat. Zhihua, you go inside and bring out some pastries and fruits."
"Girl, your parents are doing quite well in their current business, right?" They were familiar people, and they felt more relaxed after chatting with them. However, the old lady asked whether the business was a tavern or a hotel, and only she knew
.
"Grandma, my parents have a very good business."
"How are their health?"
"My body is also quite good."
…
Although Fan Jinyou wanted to have a serious chat with Xu Jingtian about future work issues, the old lady was too enthusiastic and kept Xu Jingtian chatting, and Fan Jinyou couldn't get a word in.
Although the content of the chat is a bit embarrassing, it is much better than checking the household registration for the first time when we meet.
Regarding the situation of Xu Huizhen's family, even the elders and old ladies who are a generation older know it very well. For the past thirty years, Xu Huizhen has been a person who often appears on the headlines of Daqianmen.
"Mom, come to the kitchen and see how you can eat the dishes you brought back today."
Unable to help his son's eyes that kept asking him for help, Fan Jinyou himself felt that it was a bit embarrassing for a girl to chat awkwardly with the old lady, so he made an excuse and interrupted the chat between the two of them.
"Zhihua, take Jingtian around and visit our yard."
Fan Jinyou allowed the two of them to move around freely. After walking around in front of him, they went to the backyard.
"Lao Fan, there was something wrong with the company. I took care of it. I came back a little late. Is anyone here yet?"
It was almost eleven o'clock and Chen Xueru hurried home after Fan Jinyou had finished preparing the cold dishes.
"Here we come, it's been a long time coming."
"Where are the people?"
"I went to the backyard with Zhihua."
"Then let me take a look now."
"Mom had been chatting with me for a long time just now. We just had a moment of leisure. It's not appropriate for you to chase me now."
"Then I won't go over there yet and start cooking. Mom has met someone. What do you think of the girl?"
After Chen Xueru said that, she put on her apron and prepared to cook.
"Mom probably thinks it's pretty good. She kept chatting with her, and she seems to like her quite a lot."
These old people do have different attitudes towards their daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law.
Most of them are afraid that their daughter-in-law will compete with themselves for control of their son, so they tend to have some problems with it. When they treat their grandson-in-law, they don't have such worries, only pure love.
"It's good to be recognized by your mother. You can give me some ideas." Chen Xueru said.
After that, Fan Jinyou stayed in the kitchen to help. Chen Xueru came back a little late and didn't have much time.
When cooking with Chen Xueru, steam what should be steamed, stir-fry what should be stir-fried, boil what should be boiled, and deep-fry what should be fried.
Then, probably because of the aroma of cooking, it drifted to the backyard. When they knew the cooking started, Fan Zhihua and Xu Jingtian returned to the central courtyard.
"Aunt Chen, let me help you cook. What do you think I can do?"
"Jingtian!"
Seeing Fan Zhihua and Xu Jingtian entering the kitchen, Chen Xueru was stunned and said.
Really shocked, Chen Xueru immediately froze on the spot.
The fish being cooked in the house would have been cooked if Fan Jinyou hadn't taken over.
"It's me, Aunt Chen." Xu Jingtian said with a smile.
"Jingtian, it's enough for you and I to be in the kitchen with your Aunt Chen. We don't need your help. You and Zhihua can just wait outside. The food will be ready soon."
Xu Jingtian just came to the kitchen to be polite and couldn't be taken seriously.
If you really take it seriously, you should be embarrassed. You really don’t have any skills in the kitchen.
Xu Huizhen can't cook twice a year, how can she expect her three daughters to be able to cook?
Fan Jinyou was afraid that Chen Xueru didn't understand the specific situation, so he really agreed and spoke in advance.
"Fan Jinyou, how could it be Xu Jingtian!"
After Fan Zhihua and Xu Jingtian went out, Chen Xueru came to her senses after a while and said.
"Xu Jingtian, the children are all excellent in appearance, character, and ability. You also like her because of her family background, so why can't it be her?"
"Jingtian is very nice, but I just made an agreement with Xu Huizhen about Hou Kui and Xu Jingli. Zhihua makes this trouble for me again, how do you want me to explain to Xu Huizhen?"
"Then how do you explain it? If you haven't agreed, you can become in-laws. Brothers, marry two sisters, and they will become closer. From now on, brothers and sisters-in-law will get along harmoniously, and conflicts will not easily occur. Even if they meet the in-laws
, and you don’t have to find two families, the benefits are endless.”
Fan Jin said with a nonchalant and relaxed attitude.
"Xu Huizhen is not such an easy talker. If it's so easy, why don't you let it go? Your Fan Zhijun and Xu Jingping are also in love?"
"It's okay. Do you think that if our three sons marry three daughters from Xu Huizhen's family, then you don't have to compete with Xu Huizhen. No matter how successful her business is, Xu Huizhen will not belong to our family in the end.
." Fan Jinyou responded deliberately.
Of course, Fan Jinyou didn't think so in his heart. Not only was Xu Jingping not good-looking, he was usually sentimental, just like Lin Daiyu.
The key is to have a love brain. For a man, you can abandon your family and career, seek life and death, and don't want your parents.
It is the kind of people Fan Jinyou dislikes the most. It can be said that Xu Jingping is a female version of Hou Kui.
Hou Kui is his cheap son. Fan Jinyou is married to someone else's mother and can't get rid of the relationship. It's already annoying enough. How can he recruit such a person into his family even though he knows it well?
Although the result of having three sons, marrying three daughters from Xu Huizhen's family, and being able to live happily ever after sounds wonderful.
But let’s not talk about Fan Zhijun, whether he can like Xu Jingping.
Even if Fan Jinyou was a feudal parent for a time, he forced an arranged marriage.
Asking Fan Zhijun to pursue such a girl and marry such a girl makes Fan Zhijun very sad and happy.
Not to mention how difficult it is to live with someone who has no ability to live and has mysophobia.
With this kind of personality, it is obvious that if there is a quarrel or conflict, he will often seek life and death. How can there be harmony?
Given the choice, Fan Jinyou would not have taken the initiative to trick his son.
"If you really dare to think about it, you won't be afraid that Xu Hui will really fight for you."
What Chen Xueru said makes sense. If it really happened, if Chen Xueru's three sons wanted to marry Xu Huizhen's three daughters, Xu Huizhen would definitely not agree.
Xu Huizhen has been busy and competitive all her life. She has worked hard to earn a fortune and raise a daughter. In the end, she took advantage of her rival Chen Xueru's son. She can't even imagine this.
"Hey, let's talk about this later. Today is my first official visit to my daughter, and you keep arranging my mother. This is so bad, and you are so unscrupulous as a person."
