Xueba digs a hole and waits for you to jump

Chapter 175: Engagement (3)
"Guan Xu's mother, I really don't need to trouble you..."

Mrs. Su looked at a table of elegantly prepared dishes and felt extremely embarrassed. Leaving aside the fact that Tang Hongdou was only 18 years old, it was too early to consider getting married. not good.

"I didn't know you were coming beforehand. Xiao Xu's father is on a business trip, and his in-laws are not there. This meal is just our woman's private conversation. You're welcome—"

The official mother kept adding vegetables to Tang's red bean bowl as usual, and she was more diligent than Mrs. Su.

"Don't we need to wait for Xiao Xu?"

Seeing that the official mother had already started to move her chopsticks, Mrs. Su couldn't help asking, after all, it's better to have all the people present in such a formal occasion.

"It's okay, boys have thick skin, it's okay to be hungry for a while, you guys eat red beans first!"

"Yeah! I think so too!" Tang Hongdou buried her head in the bowl and still nodded in agreement with the officer's mother, "Mom, try this fish, it's a special feature of City A!"

"You child, why do you want to eat all the time!" Mrs. Su looked at Guan's mother with some embarrassment. Compared with Guan Xu's more polite elders, Tang Hongdou is like Zhu Bajie alive. How can he say that he wants to starve in front of his own mother? Son!
Guan Ma was about to help Tang Hongdou with a few words when the door of the private room was pushed open.

"Hey, it's a good thing my aunt is thinking of me!"

The waiter leading the door was none other than Guan Xu in a suit and leather shoes. His attire was less youthful and immature, and more stable than a mature man.

"Auntie, have you seen that my status at home is simply incomparable to that of Hongdou, and I'm about to eat my last meal!"

Guan Xu made a pun. One meant that the official mother had a daughter-in-law and forgot about her son. The other meant that Tang Hongdou, a little tiger, was better at eating than pigs and ate up his share.

But there was another meaning that only Tang Hongdou understood.

"Xiao Xu, come quickly, we haven't eaten yet!"

When Mrs. Su saw Guan Xu coming in, she hurriedly greeted him, and pulled away the chair next to her. Guan's mother looked up and continued to add vegetables to Tang Hongdou's small plate.

Guan Xu was used to his mother's state of "unrecognized relatives", so he smiled and sat down gracefully.

I don't know why, probably because it was the first time we met, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was very strange. Except for Tang Hongdou who kept eating and eating, it didn't affect them, and the others didn't move their chopsticks much.

"Xiaoxu, do you know who took Hongdou away last night?"

Tang Hongdou didn't know what to ask, so Mrs. Su could only ask from Guan Xu.

"Auntie, just leave this matter to me. The police are also investigating. When the evidence is enough, those people will definitely be unable to eat!"

Where can I find evidence?It's simple, just give them a little bit by the official!

"Mom, I told you not to worry, let's eat!"

"That's right, mother-in-law, you should eat more! There are several special dishes here, try it!" The official mother enthusiastically passed a bowl of chicken sauce and seafood stew to Mrs. Su, "His family makes this The ones are very delicious, and when I was pregnant with Guan Xu, I was always hungry, and his father would go to buy this for me almost every week."

Mrs. Su picked up a small piece of abalone, which was really salty and delicious, with a unique flavor, and the chatterbox opened——

"When I was pregnant, I would like to eat sour, what kind of sour plum juice, I don't know how much I ate of small green plums! At that time, my mother-in-law thought that there was a boy in her belly, and all the children's clothes were prepared according to boys. In the end, when she was born, she was found to be a girl, she was in such a hurry, she had to prepare everything again, this girl has never stopped since she was a child!"

"What a coincidence!" Guan's mother clapped her hands, "I thought I was pregnant with a daughter, because it was too quiet, and there were basically no discomfort reactions during pregnancy. Others vomited badly, and I could still go out to play cards! But Afterwards, there was no fetal movement, and I was so scared that I went to the hospital for checkups all day, because I was afraid that this brat would die in the womb!"

Probably because they are both mothers, the official mother and Mrs. Su gradually became more talkative because of this topic, exchanging interesting stories about pregnancy and raising children.

If you don't listen, you don't know. When you hear it, you are shocked. It turns out that Tang Hongdou has been confused since he was a child, and our official master has been aggressive since he was a child.

Because of the common topic, the first informal dinner of the in-laws was quite complete.

After the meal, the official mother suggested to go to Jinsheng Meiyu for a sit down, but Guan Xu was considerate. Seeing that Mrs. Su was a little tired after traveling all day, she sent her directly back to Zhong Cuiyu Tower.

"Xiaoxu, my hotel has already been booked, Hongdou and I will go directly there in a while, you should go to bed early..."

"Auntie, there is no comfortable place to live in a hotel. Don't worry, I'll go back to live with my mother, and let Hongdou stay with you tonight." Guan Xu changed his clothes and went out. Tang Hongdou was not polite. , Greeting Mrs. Su to sit down like a hostess.

Mrs. Su was a little reserved at first, but she couldn't sit still after sitting for a while. She walked around and looked at the layout of the house, while Tang Hongdou was sitting on the sofa eating beef cubes and watching TV dramas.

"Red bean, why do you have this in your bag?"

The TV series was just playing the exciting part, Guan Ma hurried down from the stairs, holding the Metasequoia box in her hand.

"Birthday present?"

Tang Hongdou glanced at Mrs. Su, answered casually, and continued to watch the TV series.

Mrs. Su opened the wooden box again suspiciously, and sat down on the sofa while examining it carefully.

Mrs. Su has been in the jade business for so many years, and she still has some experience in appreciating these gemstones and jewelry. She has seen a lot of onyx, but it is the first time she has seen such a good quality, so she doesn't need to evaluate it. I knew that these three pieces of jewelry must be worth a lot.

"From Guan Xu?"

"Hmm... To be precise, it should be from Grandpa Guan Xu!" Tang Hongdou tilted his head and thought for a second, "Well, it's a betrothal gift!"

As soon as Mrs. Su heard about the dowry gift, she almost dropped the box with a crooked hand. Can Tang Hongdou be so confused that she can sell herself? !
Mrs. Su looked at the metasequoia box with worry, and didn't say anything about dowry or not. After receiving such an expensive gift, she should give something in return. The other wishful pendant will definitely not work. Well, even if the marriage of these two people is settled, it seems that they can only move out their treasures.
