Neighbors are cute today too

Chapter 195 It's time to get engaged (please subscribe)

Hearing that the future relatives came back, Li Min and Chen Yingping on the sofa also straightened their bodies and adjusted their clothes a little.

After all, it was the first time they met, Li Min and Chen Yingping were also a little nervous, and they didn't know if the in-laws got along well, but I often heard my daughter talk about it, and I thought it was easy to get along.

When Lin Lu walked to the door, Zou Wanrou opened the door. Just after eating, she went home to pick up Xia Wen and the two daughters. After all, today she made an appointment to meet her future in-laws, and the old mother was also very nervous. Yes, I brought a lot of things with me when I went home.

"elder brother!"

The two younger sisters appeared in front of the eyes first, and threw themselves on Lin Lu's lap. Now that the weather is cold, they are dressed like two little zongzi, very round and cute.

After hugging the elder brother, the younger sisters rushed into the house and were about to hug the elder sister when they found two strange elders on the sofa.

"Wow, what a cute little girl, and twins!"

Chen Yingping, who is also an old mother, immediately became a little bit bright-eyed. She likes children very much, but it is a pity that she was not in good health at the time, and she gave birth to Li Xingruo, and she never gave birth. Seeing the two little girls looking at them curiously, they crowded together timidly. In the arms of my own daughter, on the contrary, she looks like a daughter's daughters.

"Sister, who are they..."

"It's my sister's parents!"

Seeing Aunt Zou and Uncle Wen coming in with their things at the door, Li Xingruo also got up and walked up. Li Min and Chen Yingping on the sofa also stood up and turned to look in the direction of the door.

"I'm sorry, my sister-in-law, I had a meal at noon and came back late... eh?"

"……what?!"

For a moment, the living room fell into a strange silence, the three pairs of eyes widened, and their expressions were a bit exciting.

Seeing the reactions of their parents, Li Xingruo and Lin Lu also blinked.

"Mom, do you know each other?"

"..."

After confirming carefully for a while, the parents of both parties couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere became lively again in an instant.

"Mother Xiaolin, so you are Lao Xu's colleague!!"

"Haha, I said it was a coincidence! It turns out that my elder brother and sister-in-law are Lao Xu's younger brother! It's really not like the whole family won't stay in the same house! It's a coincidence!"

"Yes, yes, I was confused at first glance!"

"I knew that the two brothers and sisters-in-law were Lao Xu's children, and I should have asked Lao Xu to arrange a meal for us to meet each other."

"Fate fate."

Except for the three parties involved, Wen Shulin Lu and Li Xingruo were all at a loss. After they explained something, everyone couldn't help but sigh the wonder of fate.

On the contrary, Uncle Li was a little embarrassed, who knew that trying to marry someone else at the banquet would lead to his own daughter!Isn't this eating melons and watching the fun eat yourself?

Fortunately, Zou Wanrou didn't take the joke at the banquet seriously, but she was a little thankful that she turned a corner and praised Xiao Ruo, thinking that the old in-laws will have a good impression of each other in the future.

When the parents of both parties arrived, Lin Lu gave up the main seat, and sat on a small stool with Li Xingruo to chat with the elders, while Zou Wanrou and Xia Wen made tea for Li Min and Chen Yingping.

Introduced by their children, the parents of the two sides got to know each other officially. Li Min and Chen Yingping are a little older, so they call each other sister-in-law and brother-in-law. There was a small episode at the banquet, and now the two sides have acquainted each other and have a topic, and the chatting is very lively. network.

Seeing that the parents of both parties had a good chat, Lin Lu and Li Xingruo also heaved a sigh of relief, the two families are really destined for each other!
"I've always heard from Ruoruo that Xiao Lin's mother is super nice to her and cooks for her on weekends. We also wanted to come here this time to thank her!"

"It should be. We are all mothers. It is not easy for Xiao Ruo to go out by herself. I should also thank her. If Xiao Ruo hadn't given Xiao Lu tutoring before, how could his grades have improved so much?"

Lin Lu: "..."

Li Xingruo: "..."

Ga.

Isn't this all exposed!
But fortunately, Li Min and Chen Yingping seemed to have expected it, so they didn't say anything, they just laughed and continued to praise Lin Lu, although he was young, but he was very sensible and capable.

Zou Wanrou was not to be outdone, and praised the old Li's girl's cooking in all directions and without dead ends, how delicious, gentle, and considerate she was.

The two sides boasted to each other, and those who didn't know this would think that Li Xing was Zou Wanrou's daughter and Lin Lu was the son of the old Li's family.

Of course, this is the first time the in-laws have met after all, and the main thing is that they are familiar with each other. They didn't talk too deeply about the matter between Lin Lu and Li Xingruo, but they will tacitly inquire about each other's attitude towards this matter.

In the evening, the two families went to a nearby tea house for dinner.

They had to drive during the day, but Li Min didn't dare to drink, and they didn't drive at night. Uncle Wen also brought a bottle of Maotai, and the two men drank very happily.

Sure enough, for Chinese people, the dinner table is the easiest way to get closer to each other.

After drinking and eating, as the points of mutual agreement increased, the parents of both sides also chatted more deeply, and began to inquire about bride price, dowry and so on.

This subject is very sensitive!Many couples broke up because of this incident. I heard that the parents of both parties talked more and more deeply. What this kind of thing needs is mutual consideration and empathy. It is simple to say, but it can be done In fact, there are not many families, and Lin Lu and Li Xingruo at the dinner table are also worried.

Fortunately, the parents of both parties are very open-minded people. This has something to do with each other's family concept of marriage. Whether it is Zou Wanrou and Xia Wen, or Li Min and Chen Yingping, they pay more attention to freedom and equality among their children than these material things. , A harmonious marriage relationship, no matter how much the bride price or dowry is, it will eventually be given back to Lin Lu and Li Xingruo's small family.

After testing out this consensus first, the parents of both parties will become very happy to talk about this topic. To put it bluntly, the parents of both parties are satisfied with each other's children and are willing to work together to promote this marriage.

It wasn't until this time that Zou Wanrou jokingly mentioned the advice that Lao Li gave her at the banquet.

"At first, I said that this brat hasn't graduated yet, and I don't know how long to expect to get married. Why don't we follow what my brother and sister-in-law said at noon, and make the appointment early and take care of it. Let's find a time to book the marriage for the two of them." ?”

Zou Wanrou wasn't joking, she just said the truth in a joking way, let's not talk about her own Lin Lu, Li Xingruo, the old mother really likes this girl, although she is a few years older than Lin Lu, this is not a problem at all , whether it's Li Xingruo's character, appearance or harmony with this family, she can't find any faults.

It is said that the son travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried. Although the son is still by her side, the important things in his life are also the things that the old mother cares about most. How much has changed, the influence of a good wife on a man is extremely huge, and she doesn't want to miss this daughter-in-law who looks right to her even more than Lin Lu.

Think about how rare it is for a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to see each other right in the world. If Lin Lu dares to bully Xiao Ruo, she can break his leg first without Liang Xi's in-laws taking action.

For Li Min and Chen Yingping, their daughter's marriage is also their most important concern. After all, old parents can't stay with her forever. The reason why they kept urging her to find a partner is because she hopes that when she is not around, There is someone who can take care of her, be considerate of her, and love her instead of them.

Now this candidate has been selected. No matter it is Lin Lu's appearance, character or affection for his daughter, the old parents are very satisfied with this future son-in-law. It's reliable, I also met Lin Lu's family this time, seeing that my daughter can get along with their family in harmony, and seeing Zou Wanrou's recognition and love for her daughter, all the last concerns of the old parents have been put aside.

Some people may say that there may be more choices in the future. Is it too early to decide on this matter so quickly?But in life, contentment is the only way to be happy. Excessive choices and greed will only lead to an endless loop of 'wait, the next one will be better'. For the obsession of perfection in the heart, what you finally get may not be what you envisioned at the beginning. .

There are always some genuine emotions that will become more valuable as time goes by. Similarly, many happiness will be missed because of the momentary hesitation.

Hearing what Aunt Zou said about getting engaged, Li Xingruo, who was obediently eating and eating, was nervous and flustered for a moment. He lowered his head and looked not knowing where to look, but in the next second his little hand was held by Lin Lu, even though he was only holding hands , but if Li Xing could feel that Lin Lu's heartbeat was as fast as hers at this moment.

There was a drum in my heart suddenly, and I looked at my parents at the side in a little bewilderment.

In fact, Li Min and Chen Yingping responded much faster than she expected.

I had this idea in my heart at first, but seeing Zou Wanrou bring it up now, the old couple nodded again and again and said: "I think it's okay! Make an appointment early and take care of it early. If you are serious, brother and sister, then we agree !"

"This engagement can't be a joke, brother-in-law, I'm serious! I saw Lin Lu and Xiaoruo together, and I can see their feelings clearly. As long as my brother-in-law agrees, I can give it to you right now." Old Xu sent a WeChat message, asking him to introduce a matchmaker who will pick a date and get engaged."

"Hey! This is really how to do it! I'm also inexperienced, and I don't know where to find a matchmaker. Brother and sister remind me of this!"

"Dad...! Mom...! Where is this going...!"

Seeing that his parents agreed to the engagement invitation proposed by Aunt Zou, the big rock in Li Xingruo's heart fell to the ground with a thud, oh it didn't land, but fell into the dye vat, dyeing her pretty face in an instant. get ashamed.

"You and Xiao Lin also live together, this matter should also..."

"I, I'm going to the bathroom."

The little girl was both happy and ashamed, she couldn't sit still in the private room, she blushed and ran outside.

"Uncle Li, I offer you a toast!"

Lin Lu picked up his wine glass and stood up, solemnly toasting Li Min.

"I'm going to the bathroom too. Uncle and Aunt Li, you can talk first."

"Okay, look at this girl, she is so happy..."

Li Xing, who was hiding at the door and eavesdropping, really wanted to rush in again, and explained righteously that he was not very happy, it was just engagement, engaged...to be married...hehehehe...!
Seeing Lin Lu coming out, she quickly restrained the smile on her lips.

"Didn't Sister Xingruo go to the bathroom?"

"……now go!"

After walking two steps, Lin Lu behind him pounced on her, hugged her and jumped three feet high excitedly.

"Sister Xingruo! Did you hear, Uncle Li and the others agreed to our engagement!"

"I didn't hear it, I didn't hear it..."

"Then I'll come out and tell you well!"

The two left the restaurant holding hands, and went for a walk along the Anjiang River together. In fact, since they came out of the restaurant, their minds are still pink.

Lin Lu pulled her to sit down on a stone chair, picked her up and sat on his lap.

He opened his mouth and looked into her eyes, hesitating to speak, but she also couldn't say a word, probably because there was too much happiness and excitement in each other's hearts, and the words were suddenly blocked, and she didn't know what to say. get up.

If you can't say it, then don't say it.

Li Xingruo closed his eyes, Lin Lu hugged her, lowered his head and kissed her.

The winter night is cold and windy, but at this moment they are indulging in this silent, mysterious and beautiful midsummer.

After the two left the private room, they didn't know what their parents were talking about inside, but Li Xingruo's legs went limp when he received the phone call back, and the continuous kiss for more than an hour broke their record.

"Ruo Ruo, why is your face so red?!"

"Drink, drunk, boss."

Li Xingruo blushed and observed the expressions and conversations of the elders, and suddenly felt a little regretful, he knew he would not have slipped out, and now he was so curious about what the elders had just talked about, and was too embarrassed to ask.

It's already past nine o'clock in the evening, Li Min and Chen Yingping have both had a drink, so naturally they won't be going back to Liangxi tonight, and Lin Lu has already booked a hotel for his father-in-law and mother-in-law. Let them check in.

"Hey, how can Xiaolin book such a good hotel! You can't spend a lot of money!"

After talking about the engagement, now when the two elders are looking at Lin Lu, they seem to be looking at half of their son.

"It's okay, Uncle Li, it's a rare time! Uncle Li and Auntie will have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow I'll take you for a walk in southern Jiangsu. Recently, the maple leaves in Tianping Mountain are blooming very beautifully. Originally, Ruoruo and I planned to see them this week too. Yes, let's go together tomorrow!"

"Okay, I haven't visited Tianping Mountain for many years. When I fell in love with you, Aunt Chen, we were still on the mountain..."

"I'm so sick of you, old man! You drink so much when you can't drink, and you talk about everything after drinking!"

Needless to say, the hotel that Xiao Lin booked is very popular. Lao Li has never stayed in such a good hotel in his life. He wanted to take his wife to reminisce about his youth, but ended up in the hotel room. Ji fell on the bed and fell asleep.

Fortunately, Lin Lu and Li Xingruo didn't drink much, but they were on top of each other, exchanged gold coins with each other, and chatted intimately until midnight, and then hugged each other and fell asleep contentedly...
