Buy a house with 30,000 yuan and live in a small town

Chapter 553: Looking forward to good things coming

When the two arrived at Mengji, they happened to meet Xu Qingsong's father, mother, grandparents at the door.

Meng Wanqing saw that Liu Wangxue was wearing the same set of pearl jewelry she had given her, and she was very pleased and praised it for being beautiful. Liu Wangxue thanked her again.

Seeing that Liu Wangxue had put on a thicker down jacket, Grandma Xu cast a satisfied look at Xu Qingsong and took Liu Wangxue's hand to test the temperature. When she pulled, she saw the bracelet on Liu Wangxue's hand and asked, "Is it his grandma who put it on you?"

Liu Wangxue nodded. She took off the bracelet and put it back in the box before taking a shower when she returned home last night. She had never worn this before, so she was a little uncomfortable. Besides, this jade bracelet looked very valuable, so she was afraid that it might get bumped by mistake.

When they came out of the house, it was Xu Qingsong who noticed and reminded Liu Wangxue to wear the jade bracelet.

Liu Wangxue didn't want to wear it at first, so Xu Qingsong took it and put it on her wrist. He pointed at the pearl earrings, necklace and ring she was wearing and said, "To tell you the truth, my grandma was present when my mom bought this set of jewelry. When you wore it yesterday, she recognized it at a glance. You wear what my mom gave you, but you don't wear what grandma gave you. What will she think when she sees it later?"

Liu Wangxue had no choice but to wear it. She looked in the mirror again and found that it really looked like jewels.

At this time, Liu Wangxue nodded, and then she saw Grandma Xu frowning slightly, and seemed to be smiling, saying: "This old lady..."

Liu Wangxue was puzzled and thought, is there something wrong with this bracelet? Then she turned to look at Xu Qingsong, but Xu Qingsong just had a happy smile on his face, and it was impossible to tell what was wrong.

At the same time, Grandma Xu regained her amiable and smiling expression, pulling the confused Liu Wangxue inside and praising her for looking good in it: "This jade suits you very well."

It seemed as if the moment just now was just an illusion of Liu Wangxue. Liu Wangxue was suspicious and decided to go back and ask Xu Qingsong after dinner.

Behind her, Meng Wanqing raised her hand and pointed at Xu Qingsong with a smile.

Xu Qingsong whispered, "It really wasn't me. Grandma wanted to send her off. Could I stop her?"

Grandpa Xu glanced at him and said, "Don't just learn to be scheming from old man Meng."

Xu Qingsong said again: "My grandma gave it to me..."

Xu Chonglin followed up with a comment: "Not a gentleman at all."

Xu Qingsong’s inner thoughts: I am really wronged!

The family followed the waiter upstairs.

Mengji was originally a three-story restaurant, not as big as the one Liu Wangxue saw now. What she saw now was a renovated restaurant on the original site, and the restaurant also bought the shops of neighbors to expand. The restaurant was restored to its original state, and the expanded part was also built according to the original structure, but the water, electricity and other facilities inside were replaced with modern ones.

Mr. Meng reserved a large private room on the third floor for his family. The room was fully equipped with three large round tables, enough for everyone from the Meng family, the Xu family, and the four brothers of the sect to sit.

As soon as the group reached the third floor, they met Beibei and Kangkang. The twins greeted the four elders obediently, and then they held Xu Qingsong and Liu Wangxue affectionately.

Today's Beibei and Kangkang are easily distinguishable twins. Although they are still wearing exactly the same clothes, their hairstyles are different. Beibei still has the same refreshing high ponytail as the last time they met on New Year's Day, while Kangkang has a handsome wolf-tail mullet. The brother and sister are brimming with youthful vigor.

The twins chattered non-stop, telling them that Mr. Meng and his family had all arrived.

Beibei: "We were sent out to welcome you."

Kang Kang: "If you can't answer it, you have to call and urge it."

Xu Qingsong said, "That can't be helped. Your sister-in-law and I went to buy a bathtub this morning, and the installer was a little late, otherwise he would have come a long time ago."

Kang Kang then remembered: "Yes, brother, your house has been renovated, and my sister and I haven't been there yet. Can we go over to your place to play?"

Beibei also wanted to go, so she took Liu Wangxue's arm and acted coquettishly, "Sister-in-law, can we go? Can we go?"

"Of course." Liu Wangxue smiled and nodded, thinking that the twins would take the college entrance examination in more than two months, so they could only go on weekends. It just so happened that she and Xu Qingsong planned to spend the week in Beijing before returning to Taojia Village. When they returned from the resort on Thursday, they could go to the furniture store and buy the bed in the guest bedroom for the twins.

The twins were equally happy and cheered quietly.

Xu Qingsong didn't know what Liu Wangxue was thinking, so he said, "You can go and play, but you can't stay overnight. There's no bed in the guest bedroom, unless you two are willing to sleep on the sofa."

The twins pouted in the same way, looked at each other, and had the same brain waves: he must be annoyed that we were disturbing his and his sister-in-law's world!
Liu Wangxue gave Xu Qingsong a slightly accusing look and comforted the twins: "It's just a bed. You can buy it back in two days. You two can play as long as you want."

Kang Kang immediately let go of Xu Qingsong and came over to hold Liu Wangxue’s arm: “Sister-in-law, you are still the best!”

Beibei agreed and asked Liu Wangxue how many days she planned to stay in Beijing. When they learned that she could stay for a weekend, the twins were overjoyed and immediately sent out an invitation.

Beibei: "Sister-in-law, Kang Kang and I are going to shoot a COS set this Saturday, do you want to join us?"

Kang Kang: "Sister-in-law, why don't you take a photo with us? You will look really good in that costume!"

After hearing this, Liu Wangxue's first thought was, "Aren't they going to take the college entrance examination in more than two months? How can they still play this? Won't the junior master and aunt care?" Then she thought again, the educational resources the twins had been exposed to since childhood were different from hers. This was Beijing, not her hometown. Others might have tried their best to get into a top university, but in their eyes, it might just be a university next door.

Liu Wangxue has never been a person who kills fun, and she has never experienced cosplay before, so she gladly accepted the invitation and even turned to ask Xu Qingsong if he wanted to go with her.

Xu Qingsong was looking at the three of them with a smile. When Liu Wangxue asked him, he nodded and agreed without thinking.

Kang Kang pouted again and deliberately asked Bei Bei: "Sister, should we take this person who doesn't even have a bed?"

Beibei said proudly: "For the sake of my sister-in-law, I'll do it reluctantly."

Xu Qingsong smiled: "One or two, I'll serve you tea and water and carry your bags, okay?"

Kang Kang let go of Liu Wangxue, and put his arm around Xu Qingsong again, saying with a smile: "Brother, I take back what I said just now, you are also very good."

Xu Qingsong slapped him on the head without mercy.

Kang Kang screamed, covered his forehead and turned to Liu Wangxue again.

Liu Wangxue saw a small red spot on the child's forehead. She immediately slapped Xu Qingsong on the arm and condemned him, "Why are you so harsh!"

"No way," Xu Qingsong came over to take a look. He happened to arrive at the private room, so he took Kang Kang over and walked towards the door, laughing, "You're a real man, what's there to be afraid of with this little pain? Eat two more pieces of pork head meat to make up for it later."

Kang Kang struggled: "You are the pighead!"

Beibei took the opportunity to say something funny: "My brother loves to bully kids. Kang Kang and I have been bullied by him since we were little..."

Liu Wangxue thought Beibei was quite funny, and thought, if your acting skills were better, maybe I would believe it.

Entering the private room, Mr. Meng, Mrs. Meng, and my uncle and aunt were all there, as was the twins' mother, Xi Muya.

After everyone greeted each other and sat down, Liu Wangxue realized that Junior Uncle Xie Zhuoyi had been arranged by Senior Uncle Qing Qimin to attend a discussion meeting again. He would be back today, but might be a little late.

After sitting for a while, my cousin Meng Qiushi's family and my cousin Meng Donghua's family came over one after another. When the three children Langlang, Ranran and Nuonuo gathered together, plus the two older friends, the twins, and Xu Qingsong took the lead, the private room suddenly became a vegetable market, and it felt like every corner was noisy.

Then the eldest aunt, the second aunt and the third aunt came over with their children.

The son of Aunt Jiang Lin and Master Qing Qimin is the eldest of Xu Qingsong's generation, but he got married relatively late compared to others. The child was just one year old and had just learned to walk. She was a very lively little girl. After being held by her parents and recognizing Liu Wangxue, she stumbled towards her to hug her. Liu Wangxue herself liked children very much. When such a sweet and soft little baby wanted to hug her, her heart melted. She immediately picked her up and teased her.

Jiang Lin and Qing Qimin also have a daughter, but this daughter is studying for a doctorate and is very busy in her supervisor's research group, so she has not returned.

The second uncle's family has only one daughter, who is two years older than Liu Wangxue. She is single and works as an art teacher in an international middle school. Her job is easy and interesting. She also does art exam tutoring. She lives a free and easy life. When Tao Qinglei was preparing for the art exam, Xu Qingsong asked her to take time to help guide him. At the end of last month, Tao Qinglei came to take the third test of Communication University of China and asked her to help take care of him.

The third uncle's family also has a son and a daughter. The daughter is similar to the second uncle's family, but she is not a marriage advocate - she only wants to date and not get married. The son got married at the beginning of last year, and the daughter-in-law is in confinement after giving birth, so she did not come with them.

When almost everyone was present, the master uncle Qing Qimin, the second uncle Rong Weixiang and the third uncle Zhai Shaoyun came over. The three of them were wearing chef uniforms and aprons embroidered with their names, and they were the three cooking for today's meal.

Xu Qingsong once again took Liu Wangxue to say hello. As soon as Qing Qimin got home, Jiang Lin told her about her dinner with Jing Yujun and others at Qingji on Saturday. Qing Qimin didn't know the reason, but thought that Xu Qingsong was not thoughtful enough, so the next morning, Jiang Lin went to deliver something to Mrs. Meng.

Qing Qimin's original words were: "This kid, let the old man teach him how to behave." Sure enough, it wasn't long before he heard that Xu Qingsong was scolded.

When they met, Qing Qimin asked Liu Wangxue how she and her friends had eaten that day, and whether the restaurant had not treated them well. Liu Wangxue naturally answered very politely, and inevitably expressed her gratitude to Jiang Lin again - the family had received the sauces sent, and Liu Nanshan and Gu Xuelan liked them very much.

Then Zhai Shaoyun "sold" Xu Qingsong completely in a few words, saying that Xu Qingsong attached great importance to bringing Liu Wangxue back this time, and told everyone not to do this or that, and even today's dishes were ordered in advance by him and made by his uncles and uncles according to his instructions, etc. Liu Wangxue's face turned red after hearing this.

Compared with these two, Rong Weixiang was not so talkative. After saying hello, he just sat there with a smile on his face.

After chatting for a while, Qing Qimin looked at the time and asked Mr. Meng if it was time to serve the dishes. Mr. Meng then said to Xi Muya, "Call the fourth master and ask him where he is." The fourth master was his junior uncle Xie Zhuoyi.

Xi Muya took her cell phone and went out to make a call. She came back soon: "He's on his way, but the road from the airport is a bit congested. Let's start first and don't wait for him."

"Okay, let's serve the food." Mr. Meng said.

The three uncles and aunts went back to the kitchen as there were still a few dishes that needed to be cooked.

The manager and the waiters carried trays and pushed carts to serve the dishes one after another. After the dishes of the three uncles and uncles were cooked and served, Xu Qingsong's birthday party officially began.

When they were almost halfway through the meal, Xie Zhuoyi came back and handed the gift box to Xu Qingsong first. Xu Qingsong took it and thanked him, then turned around and saw that the small sofa at the back was almost full.

Shortly after the meal, the manager and several waiters pushed in a large three-layer cake.

This birthday cake was ordered by Beibei and Kangkang. These two clever guys also asked the store to make two fondant figures, a boy and a girl, to stand on top. If it weren't for the four big words "Happy Birthday" clearly written on the cake, it would look like a wedding cake at first glance.

Beibei said: "Today is the first time that my brother brings his sister-in-law home. It is also his birthday, so it is a very memorable day."

Kang Kang said: "So brother and sister-in-law are the protagonists of today's birthday party, and we would like to take this opportunity to wish you a happy marriage soon."

Beibei added: "I want to drink at the wedding."

Kang Kang also added: "I want to eat wedding candy."

Nuonuo didn't understand, so she took out a candy from her pocket and handed it to Kang Kang: "Uncle, I have some candy, give it to you."

Lang Lang and Ran Ran saw him and asked him if he had any more: "Give me one too."

When the little granddaughter in Jiang Lin's arms saw this, she immediately stretched out her hand towards Nuonuo, shouting "Ah, candy" in her mouth, wanting to eat some too.

Liu Wangxue was just wondering how to answer when she was interrupted by these little guys. Everyone in the room laughed. But she could still feel that the way they looked at her and Xu Qingsong was full of anticipation that something good was about to happen.

After singing the birthday song, Xu Qingsong made a wish to the cake. He said his blessings to everyone, but he secretly made another wish in his heart, hoping that Liu Wangxue would agree to marry him as soon as possible.

After blowing out the candles and cutting the cake, Beibei and Kangkang started to make a fuss again, asking Xu Qingsong and Liu Wangxue to cut the cake together: "You two are the protagonists today, so you must cut the cake together for the first time."

After the twins said this, the elders around them were even more excited to watch the fun and started to urge them on.

Xu Qingsong glanced at Liu Wangxue and saw that she was smiling and showed no objection or resistance. So he put the handle of the knife in her hand, held her hand, and made the first cut.

Xu Qingsong was so happy that he smiled so brightly. He felt that his love for the twins was not in vain! He thought, this is like an engagement ceremony, hehe.

Liu Wangxue was thinking the same thing at this time, thinking, isn't it a birthday? Why is it like an engagement ceremony? It feels a bit like being pushed around, but it's not real after all, so I don't hate it, haha.

The cake was eaten as dessert after the meal, especially by the children, who enjoyed it the most. Grandpa Xu was equally happy, he was determined to eat his grandson's birthday cake, and no one could stop him, but he could not avoid being stared at by Grandma Xu's serious eyes.

Time passed quickly as we ate, drank and chatted, and before we knew it, it was already half past ten. Everyone had their work and school to do tomorrow, so they packed up their things and prepared to go home.

Meng Wanqing asked the waiter to bring a few larger bags to pack the gifts piled on the small sofa for Xu Qingsong to take to the car.

The three children helped to pack the presents. Nuonuo liked the presents the most and also liked to open them, so she asked Xu Qingsong: "Uncle, do you need help?"

Xu Qingsong asked back: "What can I help you with?"

Nuonuo replied, "Opening presents is tiring. Uncle, do you need my help?"

Xu Qingsong put the last one into the bag held by Liu Wangxue, and said to Nuonuo in an exaggerated tone: "That's great! When we get back later, Nuonuo can go to your uncle's house and help him, okay?"

Lang Lang and Ran Ran also raised their hands: "Uncle, I'll go help too!" They had been thinking about going to their uncle's house to play. They had wanted to go there on Sunday night, but they hadn't finished their homework that day, so their parents wouldn't let them go. Now that they had finished their homework today, they must go and play.

"Okay!" Xu Qingsong agreed.

However, after returning, none of the three could make it. As expected, Nuonuo fell asleep on the way, and Langlang and Ranran were also very sleepy.

Xu Qingsong put all the gifts next to the sofa and said that they could open them when they came back from the resort the day after tomorrow and when they came over to play after school. He had already promised the kids, so he couldn't go back on his word.

Liu Wangxue was about to remove her makeup and take a shower, so she took off her jewelry one by one. When she took off the jade bracelet, she remembered that she had a question she had not asked yet, so she called out to Xu Qingsong towards the bedroom door.

Xu Qingsong was just coming in with the clothes he had collected from the balcony: "Honey, you called me?"

Liu Wangxue sat in front of the dressing table and looked at him through the circle made by the jade bracelet: "I have a question for you."

Xu Qingsong hung the clothes one by one in the closet: "Well, you ask."

Liu Wangxue said: "My grandma saw me wearing this bracelet this afternoon and she seemed to be a little strange. Does this bracelet have any special meaning?"

Xu Qingsong was already used to her sharpness, and he was not surprised to hear this question. He walked over and leaned against the dressing table, with temptation in his eyes: "Want to know?"

Liu Wangxue raised an eyebrow: "State your conditions."

Xu Qingsong moved closer to her and spread out one hand: "Give me the birthday present first."

Liu Wangxue put the bracelet into the velvet box, looking disappointed: "Eh, I thought you were going to talk about a couple's bath."

Xu Qingsong laughed loudly and hugged her: "The bathtub cannot be used now." (End of this chapter)
