Love Story: Starting from Marriage

Chapter 51 We also want to know more about Quan’s son-in-law
In China, the cultural customs regarding etiquette and etiquette are different in each place.

In life, people attach great importance to etiquette in interpersonal communication, including daily behavioral etiquette and etiquette in social occasions such as meetings, meals, drinking, and tea.

However, with the development of modern social civilization, social etiquette such as kowtowing, bowing, and blessings have become rare.

There must be places that still retain traditional etiquette. As far as Kwon Yul is concerned, the hometown of Confucius and Mencius is the place with the most perfect inheritance of etiquette.

However, in Kwon Ryul's hometown, especially when children bring their boyfriend or girlfriend home to meet their parents for the first time, they will not kneel down and bow down.

They were all warmly entertained by the whole family, sitting on the sofa eating fruit snacks and chatting to get closer to each other.

Then a table of delicious dishes will be prepared to entertain those who come to the restaurant for the first time.

On the day of the wedding ceremony, the bride and groom will kneel down and change their titles while serving tea.

This is slightly different from the etiquette and etiquette commonly used in H country, which is deeply influenced by Chinese Confucian culture.

Before coming to Jeonju, Quan Lu also struggled with this issue.

If you really want to give a big gift, should you do it or not?

It makes sense for Quan Yul not to do it. There is no such rule in his hometown. He and Taeyeon are not a real couple. The so-called kneeling to the sky and kneeling to your parents does not include Taeyeon's parents so far.

There’s nothing to sneer at doing it.

First of all, the program itself is based on the identity of the imaginary couple.

Arrangements were made to meet the parents at home. The content of the filmed program included the process of saluting parents and elders, which is in line with the theme of the program itself.

Secondly, saluting is also about respecting the different cultural customs of each country and region, as long as you are not kneeling to someone who should not kneel to someone.

At this moment, Quan Lyu's decision was to respect the cultural customs here.

Taeyeon told her parents to bow.

Taeyeon's parents, who were standing in front of the sofa, immediately walked around to the left side of the coffee table.

Kwon Yool and Taeyeon were both a little confused.

I just saw Taeyeon's parents walking to the seat in front of the living room window and sitting cross-legged on the floor.

Then I heard Taeyeon's father say: "Son-in-law Kwon stands on Taeyeon's left side."

Kwon Yul and Taeyeon quickly swapped places.

Taeyeon's mother explained: "When we accept your salute, we have to face north. Son-in-law Quan will stand east of where we are. Taeyeon, you have to stand west."

The orientation position is ready.

Taeyeon folded her hands and whispered to Kwon Yul: "Is Kwon Yulxi ready?"

Kwon Yool nodded heavily.

Taeyeon was still a little worried, so she whispered to Quan Yul about the correct steps for saluting.

1. Stand in front of the person saluting with your hands folded (boys put their left hand on the back of their right hand)
2. Raise your hands to the height of your chest, slightly step back with your left foot and bend over, and place your cupped hands on the ground (the hands cannot be separated).
3. Kneel on your left knee first, then put your right foot on your left foot. Place your arms on the floor and your forehead on the back of your cupped hands.
4. When you finally get up, lift your right knee first and then bow back.
Quan Lu followed the prompts, and his movements were surprisingly standard.

Taeyeon's parents looked at each other again, and were very satisfied with their daughter's standard gesture of bowing to a parent for the first time in the country of Jiaoquanlu H.

This also shows that they have done a good job in educating children since childhood.

The slogan was also shouted by Taeyeon: 1, 2, 3.

After the two of them bowed, Taeyeon's parents immediately bowed in return.

Get up
Taeyeon stood beside Quan Lushen in embarrassment and secretly gave a thumbs up.

Standing aside, Jin Zhiyong muttered: "Kim Taeyeon can actually teach others."

This yin and yang tone makes Taeyeon very old-fashioned. It is true that Kim Jiyong learned to salute faster when he was a child, but it does not mean that Taeyeon cannot learn it. Once he has learned it, he cannot teach others.

Taeyeon rolled her eyes at Jin Jiyong, and Taeyeon's mother quickly came to the rescue: "You guys are hungry. The food will be ready in a moment. Taeyeon and I will go to the kitchen to help."

Taeyeon said "Oh" and said to Kwon Yool before going to the kitchen: "If you need me, just cough three times. Don't forget it."

This is the secret code that Taeyeon and Kwon Yul agreed upon on KTX.After watching Taeyeon go to the kitchen, Kwon Yool stood in front of the coffee table and was a little at a loss.

Taeyeon's father stood up and invited Kwon Yool to sit on the sofa.

In the next minute, the camera captured an awkward scene of Kwon Yul and Taeyeon's father sitting on the sofa without saying a word.

Jin Zhiyong wanted to help ease the atmosphere, but he didn't know what to say to Quan Lu.

kitchen
Taeyeon swallowed as she looked at today's lunch dish.

She sighed that the lunch she had today was even richer than during the holidays.

There are pork ribs, beef, ginseng chicken soup and various seafood side dishes.

Taeyeon's mother took out the marinated crabs marinated a day in advance from the refrigerator and said, "Do you like it?"

Three simple words made Taeyeon panic.

He hesitated and said: "What did mom say?"

Mom glanced at Taeyeon and continued: "Mom thinks son-in-law Quan is very good. How is son-in-law Quan always treating you?"

This may seem like a casual question, but it actually represents Taeyeon's mother's sincere concern.

For a moment, Taeyeon was in a trance. When she asked this question, she felt like she was really married to Quan Yul and whether her married life was going well.

Taeyeon thought for a while and told her mother everything about how Quan Yul had taken care of her during the recent filming of the show.

Including the gummy gift given by Kwon Yul during the date, Kwon Yul not letting him touch the ice water when fishing for ice fish, when going to the wedding room, Kwon Yul saw that he was tired from walking in boots and made excuses to carry him upstairs, etc.

Taeyeon can clearly feel these subtle cares.

The more she talked, the more relaxed she became, and the expression on her face became brighter as the topic progressed.

Taeyeon's mother nodded silently as she watched her daughter's changes.

Of course Taeyeon's mother understands some things as someone who has been there, but there are some things that are not necessary to say at this time.

living room
After a while of silence, Taeyeon's father started talking.

The first question asked was: "When did son-in-law Quan come to Country H?"

Kwon Yul answered about coming to Country H three years ago, and talked about his experience from studying abroad at first, to later deciding to sign with his current agency, becoming an actor trainee, to debuting.

Another brief silence.

Taeyeon's father continued to ask: "Who are the people in son-in-law Kwon's family?"

Kwon Yool also said that there are currently five people in the family including his grandmother, father, mother and sister, plus himself.

Afterwards, we talked about Kwon Yul working hard alone in Country H, how often he returned home, whether his family knew Kwon Yul's situation in Country H, etc.

There is no logic, just a topic that comes to mind.

Although the atmosphere is no longer as awkward as the previous silence, communication is not so easy and comfortable.

In the kitchen

Taeyeon glanced back at the living room from time to time.

Looking at her father and Kwon Yool chatting, Taeyeon would always mutter: "Dad, what are they talking about? It feels like the atmosphere is a bit depressing."

Taeyeon's mother would smile and say to Taeyeon: "Your dad was asking about some things going on at Son-in-law Kwon's family. Originally, I was the one to ask, but your dad was worried that he didn't know what to talk about with Son-in-law Kwon, so I left it to your dad. asked."

Taeyeon said shyly: "Mom, why would dad ask these questions? This is Kwon Luxi's privacy."

Taeyeon's mother said calmly: "We also want to know more about Son-in-law Kwon, wouldn't we? You kid really doesn't understand anything."
