After several months, Xu Hongdou finally set foot on his hometown again.

Zhao Shucheng took a taxi with her at the station, then packed his luggage and rushed towards his home.

Xu Hongdou asked, "How is it, are you nervous?"

Zhao Shucheng laughed when he heard it. He had met his father-in-law and mother-in-law so many times, but the woman asked such questions every time, and said, "Do you think I'm nervous?"

"I can't see it, you look like a tiger, who knows what's in your heart." Xu Hongdou didn't care what Zhao Shucheng's reaction was, and said, "But it's okay to be nervous. My parents are actually very talkative. I respect my own ideas very much, and I will not meddle in my affairs. Besides, you have met my sister before, she must have tipped off the news, and they are ready."

"I think even if your sister didn't inform me, they wouldn't dislike me."

Xu Hongdou asked in surprise, "Why do you say that?"

"Think about it, in the eyes of your parents, you are an old girl in her 30s. Let alone getting married, you didn't even have a partner before. Now that you are getting older and older, if you can't find a partner, maybe No one will ask for it anymore. They have long been unable to sleep because of your worries, and now a blind person has finally taken a fancy to you, so naturally they want to provide you with delicious food and drink, so as not to scare me away. "

"Fuck you, you can't find a partner, you are only old."

"Then we are matched now, no one wants me, and no one wants you. Our age is just right, a perfect match."

Xu Hongdou couldn't help giving Zhao Shucheng a slap, pouted and stopped talking.

Before Zhao Shucheng and Xu Hongdou came back, he had already called Xu Hongdou's parents and explained that he was coming back today.

So the old couple started cleaning early in the morning. At noon, they kept staring at the wall clock on the wall, and picked up their mobile phones to check it from time to time. It felt like years passed by.

It is estimated that the time is about the same, and the old couple started to cook, preparing to let their daughter come back to eat as soon as possible.According to the old tradition, get on the dumplings and get off the noodles, Xu Jianguo made fried sauce, and Liu Guiqin even made hand-rolled noodles, waiting for his daughter to come back.

Xu Jianguo asked, "Why isn't it here? Doesn't it mean that everyone has taken a taxi?"

"Yes, is your sauce ready?"

"It's done, the fat will be stewed."

"That's great, that's great."

"How about I pick it up at the gate of the community?" Xu Jianguo asked.

"Then go quickly, you can't sit still at home, it looks like you have nails in your butt."

Xu Jianguo hesitated for a moment and said, "No, I'd better wait at home."

"What's the matter with you? I don't know anyone. Since I knew my daughter was coming back last night, she tossed and turned on the bed, just like pancakes."

"I cared about my daughter. What's wrong? It's not like you. When you call, you don't ask about your daughter. There is Xiao Zhao on the left and Xiao Zhao on the right. Those who don't know think he is your son. "

"Huh, half a son-in-law, I'm not a love house, our daughter brought Xiao Zhao to the house for the first time, we have to be more enthusiastic, otherwise Xiao Zhao will think we are dissatisfied."

While the old couple were talking, they heard a knock on the door.

Father Xu hurried to open the door, and saw Xu Hongdou standing outside the door, and said happily, "Dou, you're back!"

Xu Hongdou was also very happy to see his father, and said, "Dad!"

Zhao Shucheng hurriedly said, "Hello, Uncle! Hello, Auntie!"

Xu Jianguo was very happy to see his daughter at first, but when he saw Zhao Shucheng on the side, he immediately suppressed his smile, looked Zhao Shucheng up and down for a while, and then nodded.

Xu Hongdou's mother, Liu Guiqin, also came over, hugged her daughter first, looked at her for a while, then remembered Zhao Shucheng, and said, "Xiao Zhao, don't stand here at the door, come in quickly." '

After Xu Hongdou walked into the room, he immediately asked, "Mom, why does it smell so good?"

"The fried sauce your father made for you has been simmering in the pot, and now the fat is about to melt."

Zhao Shucheng followed with his things, and said, "Uncle and aunt, this is a gift for you, please accept it."

"You just came here, what else do you bring? Look at you and you bought so much, we can't eat it, it's a waste." Although they said so, the old couple were still very satisfied with Zhao Shucheng's behavior, After all, it showed that he valued his daughter.

"It's not much, it's just a little thought, and it doesn't cost much."

After sitting down, the old couple had the time to look at Zhao Shucheng carefully. Although they had seen it in the video recorded by Xu Hongdou before, when they saw the real person, they felt that he was even more handsome than in the video, and his temperament was also good.

Liu Guiqin became more and more satisfied the more she watched, and felt that her daughter found such a boyfriend, which could be regarded as reassuring for them.

"Dou, you haven't eaten yet. I'll serve you some noodles right now. It's your favorite noodle dish."

Xu Hongdou nodded, and said, "I really haven't eaten. I'm going to starve to death. I knew you guys must make delicious food, so I specially waited to go home for dinner."

But seeing the old couple eating together, they asked, "Why didn't you eat?"

Liu Guiqin said: "It's your father, I have to wait for you to come back and eat together."

Xu Jianguo said: "Get on the dumplings and get off the noodles, your mother is still worried that you have eaten them on the way."

"If you count your fingers, you will definitely cook delicious food for me. I have to save my stomach."

During the meal, Xu Hongdou's parents first briefly asked about Zhao Shucheng's situation. In fact, they already knew about it before, and this time they just asked in person to see if he was a good match for their daughter.

Following Xu Hongdou's parents, they began to ask about their daughter's recent situation. From traveling to Yunnan before and going to Chen Nanxing's house to see the current situation of Chen's family, there were endless topics to talk about.

Occasionally Zhao Shucheng also said some interesting things, or talked to Xu's father, but the main force was Xu Hongdou and her mother.

Xu Jianguo suddenly pointed to the ghost skill ball on the table and said, "Xiao Zhao, I heard Dou say that you made this ghost skill ball yourself?" On his face was: I don't believe it, don't lie to me.

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "I did it myself, but I was in a hurry, so I only carved it with wood, and there were only a few layers. I hope uncle doesn't mind."

Xu Hongdou also quickly proved: "Dad, this is absolutely true, and I even shot a video. It was carved out by him with a knife and a stroke, and you can't buy it if you want to. And look inside, there are still With his engraved words, it is definitely a unique good thing."

"Before I heard from Dou that you didn't start a company, how could you still work as a carpenter?"

Zhao Shucheng said: "I did start a company before, but after the company went public, I handed over the company to professionals, and I just waited for the dividends. I have nothing to do, as the old saying goes, there is no pressure on art." It’s not bad to learn more, so I thought about learning more, but I didn’t expect to be talented in this area.”

Xu Jianguo nodded when he heard it, and said, "That's true. You may be able to use the skills you have learned so much." '

Of course, Zhao Shucheng didn't expect to stay at Xu Hongdou's house for the first time, so after dinner, he bid farewell to Xu's family and went to the hotel.

Xu's father and Xu's mother stayed for a while, seeing Zhao Shucheng's firm attitude, they didn't say much.

But after Zhao Shucheng left, the old couple pulled Xu Hongdou and began to interrogate how they met, when they got together, how far they had progressed, and so on.

When he heard that Zhao Shucheng was in his 30s and still not married, he even asked why, whether he had some physical problems.Moreover, the two of them have been together for so long, and they only stop at kissing, and they are even more worried about whether there is something wrong.

But when he heard that Xu Hongdou wanted to ask for their consent before officially being with Zhao Shucheng, he was relieved a lot.

Liu Guiqin said to Xu Hongdou: "Dou, I think Xiao Zhao is not bad, don't pick on you, just settle your matter sometime." '

"Mom, what are you talking about? From what you mean, it's like I'm an unmarried girl."

"If you can't catch Xiao Zhao, you will really become an old girl who can't get married. A handsome guy like Xiao Zhao is in high demand. If you don't catch it now, you will regret it later. By then When you look for a partner again, you will find that you can't find anyone better than Xiao Zhao, isn't it delaying yourself?"

"Okay, okay, I see." Xu Hongdou said perfunctorily.

As the new prospective son-in-law, Zhao Shucheng naturally had to behave well.So the next morning, I came to Xu Hongdou's house early to help Xu Hongdou organize the things that need to be moved soon, and also pack up the things that are not needed, and prepare to throw them away or sell them.

When it was noon, he even took the initiative to ask to cook, so that the second elder could taste his own cooking.

"Xiao Zhao, how can I let you cook? You are a guest here, and you can't cook."

"Uncle and aunt, you don't have to be polite with me. I am young and strong, so I can't let you cook for us. Besides, you should also try my cooking, so as not to worry that Hongdou will suffer from me in the future. "

On this point, Xu Hongdou supported Zhao Shucheng, after all, she had gotten used to Zhao Shucheng's cooking in the past three months.Although the meals are the same, what Zhao Shucheng cooks is better than others.

Although the food cooked by my parents is also delicious and has a taste of home, but I can eat better, why do I have to eat ordinary meals?
Xu Jianguo and Liu Guiqin didn't care at first, but after the sound of knives cutting the chopping board came from the kitchen, at first they thought Zhao Shucheng was putting on a show. After all, anyone can cut the rhythm with a knife cutting the chopping board, but cutting vegetables is not necessarily the case. .

But when he passed by the kitchen and saw Zhao Shucheng's movements and knife skills, he realized that he was not pretending just now, but was really skilled in knife skills.

Liu Guiqin couldn't help but asked her daughter: "Dou, where did you find your boyfriend? This knife skill is nothing more than a master chef in a restaurant, right? Your boyfriend has too many skills. , woodcarving, cooking, what else do you know?” (End of this chapter)
