Back to 2006

Chapter 107 The leaky little cotton-padded jacket’s parents are here (additional update with 400 monthly pass)
In Yang Xingyu's impression, an Omega costs tens of thousands of yuan at least.

Zhen Xin gave him such an expensive gift for the first time, which not only proved her financial strength, but also proved that she valued him.

Yang Xingyu declined several times and then accepted.

Although this makes him more suspected of being a softie, what can he do if he doesn't accept it?She bought everything, does she have to take it back and return it?He could only decide in his heart to return this gift to her in the future.

Zhen Xin didn't stay here long, so she gave him the watch, stood at the front of the car and said a few words to him, then said goodbye and left.

As soon as she left, the door to the easternmost bedroom on the first floor opened.

The eldest cousins ​​Fang Jiahui and Jiang Jie came out of the bedroom quickly, with surprised expressions on their faces.

Fang Jiahui: "Xiaoyu, was that your girlfriend just now? So beautiful, or does she drive a Mercedes-Benz?"

In the eyes of rural people these days, as long as it is a Mercedes-Benz, it is a Mercedes-Benz.

Jiang Jie: "Yes, Boss Yang! No wonder you never agreed to let me introduce you to a girlfriend! You have such a beautiful girlfriend, but you have hidden it from us until now. You are too good at hiding it, right?" , what’s her name? Such a beautiful beauty should have a good name, right?”

Yang Xingyu was helpless. He was a little confused when he heard that they had one question for you and one for me.

"No! My girlfriend is not her, so don't make random guesses."

Although his relationship with Zhen Xin is a bit ambiguous, his current real girlfriend is indeed not her.

"No? Then what is your relationship?"

Fang Jiahui came to Yang Xingyu and looked at the new watch in his hand curiously while expressing doubts.

She just saw that beautiful woman give him this new watch with her own eyes. She wasn't her girlfriend, giving him this?You can tell at first glance that this watch is not cheap.

Jiang Jie: "What kind of watch is this? It looks so good. Is it expensive? If not, I will buy one for my boyfriend later."

Yang Xingyu: "She is my classmate."

After answering the cousin's question first, Yang Xingyu then answered Jiang Jie, "It's a bit expensive. If you don't eat or drink for a year, you might be able to buy one for your boyfriend."

"Classmates? Classmates are so kind to you?"

The eldest cousin was even more suspicious.

Jiang Jie: "Huh? So expensive? Forget it! My boyfriend doesn't deserve to wear such an expensive watch. The most I can buy him is a copycat version, hehe."

Yang Xingyu laughed.

In fact, he also felt that he was not worthy of wearing such a good watch now.

But since Zhen Xin had already given it away, he would wear it.

After chatting with his cousin, Jiang Jie and the others for a while, Yang Xingyu returned to the kitchen and handed his old watch to Zhong Xingfei.

"Xiao Fei, this watch belongs to you, keep it to check the time."

Zhong Xingfei was a little surprised and took it happily, "Thank you for the big pot!"

……

noon that day.

In a villa in the county town.

When Zhen Xin gave a tea set to her father as a birthday gift, her mother Su Fenghua, who was sitting next to her, asked in surprise: "Isn't that right? Xin Xin! Didn't you look at your watch on the computer a few days ago? You said you wanted to Would you like to pick a watch and give it to your dad as a birthday gift? Where is the watch? Why did it become a tea set?"

Hearing this, the handsome old man Zhen Yongnian also looked at his daughter strangely.

Zhen Xin glanced at the watch on her father's wrist and smiled: "Dad's watch now is very good, even better. I looked at the price and I couldn't bear to buy it, Dad! We have to be diligent and thrifty, right?"

Zhen Yongnian nodded with a smile, turned to Su Fenghua and said, "Fenghua! Xinxin is right, there is no need to buy a watch that is too expensive, it is such a waste! Her quality is pretty good, we should support her."

Su Fenghua frowned, looked at her husband with a pleased expression, and then at her daughter with a calm expression. She became increasingly suspicious that Zhen Xin was not looking at her watch online for her father a few days ago.

At this moment, she wanted to tell her husband about her suspicions.

But she also thought that today was her husband's 50th birthday. On such an important day, if she told him this suspicion, based on her understanding of her husband, she might not be able to sleep tonight.

"By the way, Dad, did you spend hundreds of thousands on this watch?"

At this time, Zhen Xin pointed to the watch on her father's wrist and asked.

Zhen Yongnian looked down at his watch and chuckled, "It's a little expensive, only 50 yuan! But there's nothing we can do about it. We're doing business, so it's fine if we don't wear a watch. Since we do, we can't wear too much." It’s cheap, otherwise I will be looked down upon by customers and partners, and those who don’t know, think that I, Zhen Yongnian, am going bankrupt, haha.”

Zhen Xin nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Although what you said makes sense, if you buy such an expensive one, you will probably never receive a watch from me in your lifetime. I can't bear to buy you a more expensive one."

"You don't need to buy it! You don't need to buy it! Just keep your thrifty style, hehe."

Zhen Yongnian waved his hands repeatedly, comforting his daughter with a smile on his face.

Su Fenghua sat aside, watching the harmonious scene between father and daughter, resisting the urge to roll her eyes, and resisting the urge to tell her husband her suspicions.

never mind!Today is his 50th birthday, let him have a happy day!

Su Fenghua persuaded herself in her heart.

……

Fast forward to March.

Yang Xingyu's daily life is still very busy. He has to get up at around 4 a.m. every day to make goods, and he has to make another batch of goods in the afternoon.

He still has to take time to inspect the 18 branches under his name every day. There are too many branches. He doesn't have that much time to visit every store every day, so he only visits two or three stores every day.

In the little free time he has, he still has to go to dry goods stores, look for better spices and come back, do experiments, and continue to optimize the recipe of the stewed soup.

Time flies and it’s December 12th.This morning, his parents came.

This is the first time his parents have come since he came to the city to open a shop.

For this reason, his parents called him last night to inform him that their roast duck business in their hometown would also be suspended for one day.

When they arrived, his parents took the bus. In fact, when they talked on the phone last night, Yang Xingyu asked them to take a taxi today to avoid having to change trains midway.

But his parents were used to being thrifty and had promised well over the phone, but they still came by bus today.

Just before 8 o'clock in the morning, Yang Xingyu suddenly received a call from his father, asking him to pick them up at a certain bus stop.

At that time, Yang Xingyu was busy in the kitchen. When he suddenly received such a call, he was speechless and felt sorry for them.

What can I say?

I can only drive a tricycle to pick them up in person.

The problem was that his father couldn't tell which bus stop they were on, or Yang Xingyu asked his father to ask other passengers on the platform before he figured out the location. It was not very far from him.

Yang Xingyu rode a tricycle and found them ten minutes later.

The first time he saw them, Yang Xingyu knew that they had dressed up specially today and had put on their best clothes and shoes this season.

Dad wore a [-]% new Chinese tunic suit. Yang Xingyu recognized this suit. He had seen it in a wooden box at home when he was a child.

That box is only opened maybe once a year.

Every year after the rainy season, my mother would be exposed to mildew like other people's houses. She would take out all the clothes and shoes that were not often worn in the closets and boxes and expose them to the sun.

Yang Xingyu heard from his mother that the Chinese tunic suit was worn by his father when he got married, and he would wear it for a few days every New Year.

It's been decades and it's still [-]% new.

Maybe this set of clothes was very expensive for my father when I bought it.

But Yang Xingyu knows that in fact, a set of Chinese tunic suits like this now costs only three to forty yuan at small stalls in the county town.

However, my father still regards the Mao suit as his treasure.

Mom is not dressed in such a retro style today. It seems to be a new autumn dress that she recently bought. Visually, the total cost of a set may be 80 or [-] yuan. In rural areas, it is considered a good dress, but a pair of artificial leather shoes on her feet. It's already a little peeling.

Yang Xingyu immediately decided to take some time this afternoon to take his parents to buy some clothes and shoes.

In the original time and space, he went to the Magic City early to work hard and could only come back once or twice a year. Although every time he came back, he would give his parents some money and buy some gifts.

But when it comes to taking care of his parents, he definitely doesn't do a good job.

Especially clothes and shoes, it is difficult for him to buy them without his parents, because as his parents get older, their figures are out of shape, so if they give him the size, the ones he buys do not fit him.

Every time he came back, he wanted to take them to the county or city to buy clothes, but they were unwilling to go.

Later, as they got older, every time he came back and said he would take them shopping for clothes or something, what they said would immediately dampen his enthusiasm.

Because my mother would say: "Get married early and give us a grandson. Even if you give us a granddaughter, it will make us happier than buying us a dragon robe to wear!"

And my father would say: "You are not married yet, and I can't even lift my head when I go out. Why should I wear good clothes? Do you wear good clothes to make people laugh?"

Ma'am.

Now he is only 24 years old, and his parents have not yet started urging him to get married.

He felt that if he bought them clothes now, they would not refuse, let alone say those weird things to him.

"Dad, Mom! This way!"

Yang Xingyu stopped the tricycle and hurried to greet them while calling them.

Yang Qingshi and Fang Xiaomei followed the sound and when they saw their son, they both smiled and looked up and down at Yang Xingyu, whom they hadn't seen for several months.

The more you look, the more satisfied you are.

Because in the past few months, Yang Xingyu has indeed changed a lot.

In terms of clothing, she is much more polished and mature than before.

"Dad, what do you have in your bag?"

Yang Qingshi: "Oh, they are two old hens."

"Ah? You brought a chicken here? Mom, why did you bring a basket of eggs? It's not like I can't buy them here. I'm in the city, not in the mountains!"

Fang Xiaomei: "It's all from my own chickens. I know you can buy it in the city, but it doesn't cost money! I have it at home, so why spend money on it?"

Yang Xingyu was helpless, "Okay, okay! Get in the car quickly."

On the way back to Yuwei Alley, Yang Qingshi and Fang Xiaomei took turns asking questions.

Yang Qingshi: "Xiaoyu, I heard from your eldest cousin that you recently had a beautiful girlfriend? Is it true? When do you plan to get married?"

Fang Xiaomei: "What's that girl's name? What does she do at home? Can you call her over today so your dad and I can take a look?"

Yang Xingyu: "???"

At this moment, Yang Xingyu realized that his parents didn't come here to see him.
