Era: I have a two-world door

Chapter 559: Meeting the Mother-in-Law Again

After leaving Song Wenqing's place, he drove back to the villa.

"Is the matter settled?"

Du Wanting was lying on the bed reading a book. When she saw him come back, she looked up and asked.

Wang Qingsong hummed, took off his clothes, walked over, looked at the book in her hand and said with a smile: "What are you reading? It's all in English!"

Hearing this, Du Wanting opened the cover of the book.

Still English.

"This is business administration. After all, I studied law before, so I have some knowledge of it, but not in depth. You have more and more things to do now, so I have to learn it!"

Wang Qingsong smiled when he heard this: "Ah, there is nothing I can do. I have no education, so I can only rely on you!"

Du Wanting rolled her eyes: "You're so sweet. By the way, my dad knows about us. Can you... pick a time... to come to our house for dinner? My family wants to see you!"

Hearing this, Wang Qingsong was stunned for a moment.

Looking at Du Wanting's hopeful eyes, he quickly reacted.

"Okay! Pick a time! I'll bring some gifts over!"

Hearing this, Du Wanting smiled like a flower, acting like a little woman: "Okay! How about tomorrow! Tomorrow is New Year's Day."

These words made his head go dark.

Why is it always New Year’s Day?

He will go to Xiaozao's house at noon tomorrow, and has an appointment to have dinner at Liang Chunxiao's place in the evening.

"Is it inconvenient? If not, let's do it another day!"

Du Wanting also noticed his hesitation.

Wang Qingsong came back to his senses, looked at her and smiled, "I'm sorry, I really have something to do tomorrow. How about the night after tomorrow? I'll prepare something for you then, and you can take it over then."

Du Wanting thought he had some "special mission" and agreed.

"Sure! Then the day after tomorrow. Don't worry about the stuff, I'll prepare it!"

Wang Qingsong thought about it and agreed: "Okay! You can buy whatever you want. You know I have money!"

These words made Du Wanting laugh.

"Okay! Got it! Go take a shower and go to bed later."

Wang Qingsong agreed after hearing this and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

I played poker for a while in the evening and then fell asleep.

……

The next morning, the compound was very lively.

Today, except for the service industry, all other industries are on holiday, and it is Liang Chunxiao's turn to rest.

Although the temperature is low, the weather is still good.

Many people were washing sheets and clothes there.

Liang Chunxiao was the same, washing clothes and chatting with the women in the compound.

Today is a national holiday, so Xiaomai doesn't have to go to the Children's Palace to learn anything.

After washing up, I didn't run around.

They have something else to do later!

After Liang Chunxiao finished his work, the others prepared in the house.

Although New Year's Day is a national holiday, it is not a big holiday for ordinary people.

For ordinary people, Mid-Autumn Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and Chinese New Year are considered traditional festivals.

No need to prepare any gifts that are too expensive.

I bought some cakes to eat spring cakes on New Year's Day.

Liang Chunxiao packed up his things and asked him, "When are you leaving? I think I'll go to my dad's place after lunch!"

Wang Qingsong took his portion and said with a smile, "You can give my portion to your father and your dad, so I don't have to send them again. Tell your dad that I have something to do."

"I know! Don't worry, I'll tell you."

After the deal was made, the two of them took their things and left the yard.

Ride to the alley and separate.

Wang Qingsong took Xiaomai to Shouhou's house.

When we arrived at the place, there were already quite a few people inside.

"Hey, here comes the old red man."

Li Zhonghai was in the room, looking at Wang Qingsong who came in from the door, and called out to him jokingly.

Wang Qingsong brought Xiaomai into the main room and looked at Widow Feng who had stood up.

He smiled and greeted her: "Auntie!"

Widow Feng smiled and greeted, "Qingsong is here!"

Li Yong and Xiao Zao were a little embarrassed and shouted: "Brother (Brother Qingsong)!"

Li Yong handed him a cigarette.

This made Xiaomai laugh so hard.

But the others didn't laugh.

Li Yong is older than Wang Qingsong, but he belongs to his mother's family and is Xiaozao's brother, so Shouhou can only address him according to the generational system on this side.

Seeing this, Li Zhonghai introduced one of the middle-aged couples: "Dad, Mom, this is Qingsong, Qingsong, these are my parents. This is Aunt Liu from next door..."

Several other older people were also introduced.

Wang Qingsong looked at the two and greeted them with a smile: "Uncle and aunt, hello! Xiaomai, call someone."

"Uncle, aunt, brother..."

Xiaomai followed behind and called out in a circle.

Then he ran to Xiaozao.

It was quite lively for a while.

Li Zhonghai's mother looked at him and said with a smile, "This kid is not that old! I thought he was quite old! You are actually acting as a matchmaker. You are the one for Big Head Sister!"

There was a smile on his face, but there was no malice in his tone.

Wang Qingsong's face was embarrassed for a moment.

At his age, he is indeed not suitable for matchmaking.

But he recovered quickly and said with a smile, "Aunt! I'm not that old, just like Xiaozao, I'm a little older. You probably know that I got Xiaozao's job. She only has an aunt in the city, so she doesn't have many relatives.

I just happened to think that Shouhou was a good person and a good fit, so I mentioned him. I didn’t know anything else, so I didn’t get involved.”

Seeing this, Mother Li nodded slightly: "Yes, I know this, and I think it's quite suitable. Li Yong is also from our family. I watched him grow up since he was a child, so there must be no problem with him.

Sit down, you’re welcome.”

Wang Qingsong sat down after seeing this.

There weren't that many people coming today.

Li Zhonghai’s family consists of three people, and they also have children, but they didn’t bring all of them with them.

Widow Feng and Xiaozao.

There are three people in the yard next door, so they can form a table.

There were also some candies and snacks on the table, which were for courtesy.

Seeing this, Wang Qingsong looked at Xiaozao who was holding Xiaomai without saying anything.

He smiled and said, "Xiao Zao, you're not working today?"

The bus company certainly cannot rest like normal factories.

Xiao Zao hummed: "It was originally my turn today, but I switched shifts with someone else."

After saying that, he sat there with his lips pursed.

My face was red the whole time.

Wang Qingsong smiled when he heard this. Not to mention Xiaozao, even if it was his old self, he would blush and feel embarrassed.

Now!
His face is as thick as a city wall.

Afterwards, the group ate candy and chatted there. Widow Feng and the aunt next door were cooking there.

In fact, this is how engagement works. The elders of both families sit together for a meal, and the matchmaker talks about the betrothal gifts and sets the date.

In fact, someone has already looked at the date.

Skinny Monkey has no parents, so the wedding is hosted by Li Zhonghai's mother, who is also a candidate for matchmaker.

Everything has been discussed privately and communicated well, so naturally nothing will happen.

The group of people had their meal smoothly.

After dinner, most people who needed to leave had left.

Widow Feng also wants to take her daughter back.

Wang Qingsong left with Widow Feng, as he was considered a member of her widow's family.

……

After saying goodbye to the people here, several people walked out to the street.

Walking on the road, Wang Qingsong smiled at Xiaozao and said, "Xiaozao, Shouhou, what do you think? I'm a little busy for now, so you can figure it out. If it doesn't work, just postpone it. You don't have to worry about me and my aunt. Don't let me wrong you."

Although it was a little late to ask, he still wanted to ask.

If it doesn't work, forget it. Even if we're engaged, the worst that can happen is that I can just return the things I spent to Skinny Monkey.

Xiaozao's face turned red when she heard this.

Biting her lip, she said, "Li Yong... is an okay person!"

Looking at Xiaozao's expression, Wang Qingsong nodded slightly, and it seemed that he was quite satisfied.

Shouhou is four or five years older than Xiaozao, but he still looks handsome.

I've been running outside all year round, so I've got a tan.

Not too dark.

He also felt that Widow Feng preferred Skinny Monkey, partly because Skinny Monkey looked strong.

When rural aunties look for a son-in-law, they see if the man is strong and whether he is loyal.

Of course, family background is one of them.

The proportion of families in rural areas is not very high. After all, they are all very poor, and it is still the commune period.

Then the other two items account for a relatively high proportion.

Widow Feng smiled and said, "Xiaoyong is okay. During this period, I bought a lot of clothes for Xiaozao and spent a lot of money. I have met him many times and he is quite honest."

Wang Qingsong hummed.

In this day and age, money is hard to earn, and the standard these days is whether you are willing to spend money on the woman.

A very realistic topic.

But it's also normal thinking.

When going on a blind date, do you expect to have a passionate love like the one you are having?
What a bullshit!

To put it bluntly, it’s about living.

It is still very rare to talk about it in this era, especially for ordinary people.

Free love is mostly concentrated among intellectuals.

Or maybe they fall in love after working in the same unit for a long time.

Widow Feng finished speaking and sighed, "Xiao Zao also has an aunt. Hey, you know, she didn't even come for such a big event today."

Hearing this, Wang Qingsong didn't say anything.

He had thought of this before. Xiaozao only had one aunt in the city.

It was such an important matter, but the other party didn’t come.

But there were many people in the yard before, so he was not in a position to ask about this.

Now that Widow Feng had brought it up, he asked, "Aunt, is there any misunderstanding? You didn't inform me?"

Widow Feng shook her head: "She is Xiaozao's aunt, how could I not inform her? She was a little unhappy because she introduced someone to Xiaozao later, but I didn't go to see him.

Think about it, Li Yong has no parents at home, and if Xiaozao goes there, I can help take care of them, and I don't have to separate from Xiaozao. Tell me, if Xiaozao gets married in the future, how will I live alone? "

Having said this, Widow Feng wiped away her tears.

Wang Qingsong didn't say anything, but listened quietly, knowing that she hadn't finished.

Then, Widow Feng continued, "And Shouhou has also agreed. One of the two boys will be left as an heir to the Feng family. I've also met Shouhou during this period of time. He's a really nice guy!"

Wang Qingsong hummed.

Indeed, from Widow Feng's perspective, Shouhou's family conditions are indeed very suitable.

The idea is a bit selfish.

What if I only have one son in the future?

Do you want your daughter to become a breeding machine?

But this was the 1960s, and they all came from the Republic of China period, and even many older people had lived through feudal society.

At least in this era, this idea is normal.

Then he said, "Aunt, don't be sad. You will spend your whole life with Xiaozao, not her aunt. Since you already have someone in your heart, it's right to refuse. If you don't refuse, it won't sound good if it gets out."

While he was keeping his eye on her, he also sent his daughter on blind dates everywhere.

It's not necessarily a good thing.

Widow Feng also nodded: "Yeah! I think so too. Since you have no idea, it's better not to meet. You can't be too picky about this person. If you keep picking and choosing, you will be overwhelmed and end up in a bad situation."

Wang Qingsong laughed when he heard this: "Aunt, your ideas... are really open-minded!"

There are so many unmarried people in later generations at an older age, and many of the reasons are that they are overwhelmed by the choices.

Once people have too many choices, they will start to compare.

This is human nature.

But many people ignore one issue: time cost.

It takes time to fall in love, and it takes a long time to heal if a relationship breaks down.

If I look for it again, I’m afraid of getting hurt.

These problems are subconscious, but many people are not aware of them.

Of course, he saw all this on TikTok.

Widow Feng laughed when she heard this, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry to make you laugh. The main reason is that Xiaozao feels that Li Yong is still okay. If she doesn't want to, I definitely won't agree."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qingsong looked at Xiaozao, who looked a little embarrassed.

I smiled too.

"That's it. It's better to invite Aunt Xiaozao when you get married. If she really doesn't come, then forget it. You are Xiaozao's mother."

Widow Feng hummed, "That's for sure! If I don't notify them, they'll pinch my spine again."

"Well, it's all done as long as the etiquette is met."

Wang Qingsong only said one sentence and didn’t say much else. After all, he was not Xiaozao’s biological brother.

Some of the things I said were inappropriate.

Especially the things about Aunt Xiaozao.

If one day the other party points at his nose and says: What does the Feng family’s affairs have to do with your family? We are not related, so why do you care so much?

There is no doubt that someone can really do it.

Then he changed the subject, looked at Xiaozao and smiled, "Xiaozao, Shouhou is Chunxiao's friend, and I also got to know him through his brother. If he dares to bully you in the future, just tell me. Don't say that family disgrace should not be made public. If you are my brother, just tell me. Auntie, too. Don't hide anything.

If he bullies you, I will bring my brother-in-law and call Li Zhonghai to beat him up."

This made Xiao Zao burst out laughing: "Okay, I get it, brother! I'll definitely look for you if there's anything."

"Hey, that's right! I didn't say anything polite to you."

Widow Feng didn't seem to help him much, but that was because he had the Bagua Mirror, which enabled him to have all kinds of adventures.

What if there weren’t these adventures!
If it weren't for these adventures, if Widow Feng didn't lend him a hand, and if his elder and second brothers couldn't help them, then his life would really not be easy.

The whole family is devoured, whether in the countryside or in the city.

This is normal no matter which dynasty it is.
