Chapter 19: Divergence
This meal was quite pleasant, even if Bai Xiaojiu's uncle who didn't want to see the most, Qiu Hongzheng went home with Bai Junguo.
Qiu Zhuping's mother's family is all together, and they talked and laughed and ate a meal, and Mu Xize, who was extremely nervous, held up three bowls of rice under Qiu Zhuping's urging.
He answered a number of detailed questions, including the affairs of his hometown, his parents, and his own affairs.
Eating, sweating coldly, I said everything I had to say, and I couldn't wait to swear by the heavens and the earth, and dig out my heart and liver to show Bai Xiaojiu's relatives.
This time, Qiu Hongzheng didn't look improper, he posed as an elder, asked a few work-related questions, and seemed just curious.
Bai Junguo has always been tolerant of Bai Xiaojiu's boyfriend, he doesn't ask too many questions, and most of them listen to other people's questions and smile all the time.
Mu Xize was originally most worried about Bai Junguo's strictest, but he didn't know that it was not him who asked the most, but Bai Xiaojiu's two aunts.
Fortunately, he knew that he was going to see Bai Junguo today, so he had some points in his heart and made some preparations, so he didn't make a fool of himself.
Bai Junguo is very clear about Bai Xiaojiu's needs, and he also knows that this child has his own ideas, and he is completely different from Qiu Zhuping.
He will not impose his needs and ideas on Bai Xiaojiu, he only hopes that she will choose by herself and will not regret it in the future.
Even if he regrets and feels unhappy in the future, he has enough confidence that his daughter can live well on him.
Mu Xize's performance made Bai Junguo look at it a little, and he had more knowledge than Qiu Zhuping. At a glance, you can see that Mu Xize is really honest, and he cares about Bai Xiaojiu very much, and he has a good temper, so he is much more relieved, and he won't say anything.
After eating, Qiu Zhuping greeted her two younger sisters and a younger brother, and played mahjong at home. Bai Xiaojiu saw that Mu Xize really held on too much, and took him out with Bai Junguo.
"You're good, just keep doing it in the future. Bai Junguo went downstairs, turned to Mu Xize, and touched Bai Xiaojiu's head,
"I went to work. The two of you are wandering around the neighborhood. Let's have dinner at home. The last sentence was addressed to Musizer.
Mu Xize, who was secretly poking and rubbing his stomach, dared to refuse, and nodded busily,
"Yes, uncle. Waiting for Bai Junguo to turn around, Bai Xiaojiu grabbed Mu Xize's arm and laughed gloatingly,
"My mother told you to eat more, so you can eat more? Three bowls, how do you hold on. "The first bowl of rice was scooped by Qiu Zhuping, for fear that Mu Xize would not be able to eat enough, so he pressed it again and again, and the amount can be imagined.
"Your mom didn't say she liked what she could eat. Mu Xize looked at her aggrievedly, saw her pursing her lips and smiled, looking very happy, and felt that she was not wronged, so she smirked.
"With them, don't be so nervous. We don't spend much time with them. Bai Xiaojiu means that two people fall in love, and they don't need to go home often to see their parents.
Of course, falling in love is going out on a date, trying to be two people together, and always coming to the house for dinner.
When Mu Xize heard this, he thought about it a lot, and subconsciously thought that she meant that the two of them would live together after getting married and not live with their parents.
When she thought about it, her thoughts drifted away, and she just thought that she had already begun to plan for marriage. The whole person laughed even more silly, and kept watching her laugh.
Bai Xiaojiu looked at him and showed such a smirk again, and poked his eyebrows,
"What are you smiling at?"
"So, when are you going to meet my mother?
"Huh?" Bai Xiaojiu was a little stunned, why did he have to meet his parents so soon? If he hadn't come suddenly that day, he wouldn't have seen Qiu Zhuping so early.
He also had a good opportunity, and it happened that Qiu Zhuping wanted her to go on a blind date at that time, so he had the matter of seeing Bai Junguo and a group of relatives later.
In Bai Xiaojiu's opinion, the two have gone through a run-in period and their relationship is stable, so she will consider taking her boyfriend to meet her parents.
If Qiu Zhuping urges it tightly, she will tell Qiu Zhuping that she has a boyfriend, but whether to bring it back depends on the degree of affection between the two people.
Mu Xize suddenly said that he wanted her to see his mother, which felt like two people were going to get married, and it always felt too soon.
Before he could react, Musize continued,
"Just call my mother to Rongchuan, our parents can also meet?" It's more like wanting to get married, only if two people are sure that they will go on for a lifetime before they will let their parents meet, right?
Bai Xiaojiu didn't react, blinked, didn't know how to answer, did she ask bluntly: "Do you want to get married?"
But how long have the two known each other? To be exact, it hasn't been half a year since they realized and established their relationship. Bai Xiaojiu doesn't care about his age at all, he is not in a hurry to get married, his plan is to meet a suitable one, and the two of them will get along for two or three years.
It's only been a few months? Mu Xize saw the incomprehension in Bai Xiaojiu's eyes, from the first time he saw Bai Xiaojiu, he was sure that the girlfriend he had always wanted was like this.
The more I get in touch with her, the more I think she is cute, everything he likes, like a future wife tailored for him.
But the more this happened, the more he felt that he couldn't catch her, and he was especially afraid of losing. The more afraid I am of losing, the more I want to hold on to her.
What can hold a woman and not let go? Marriage, of course. From the moment she agreed to be his girlfriend, he spent the night thinking about the future of the two of them, where to live in marriage, where to buy a house, and whether to have a son or a daughter in the future.
I thought about it all night, enjoyed it all night, didn't think about it at all, and I was only twenty-four years old. It was true that she had no intention of meeting her mother in advance, but this time she not only met her father and sister, but also met her relatives.
Is this a hint from Bai Xiaojiu? Maybe girls want to save face, and if they want to get married, they can't say it bluntly, so they can only remind them tactfully?
Qiu Zhuping kept mentioning at the dinner table that Bai Xiaojiu was twenty-five years old, not young, and he should have started a family a long time ago.
Isn't that also a recurring reminder? Musize felt that he had an epiphany, and only now did he understand what they meant, that he was too stupid.
But he asked her to see her parents, why did she have such an expression?
"No, it's not necessary, right?" Bai Xiaojiu tried to hide the confusion and panic in his heart with a joking expression.
She hadn't thought about the two of them meeting each other's parents and both parents right now. Today is Qiu Zhuping's first cut and then play, she didn't know that there would be relatives coming, she just wanted Bai Junguo to see Mu Xize.
"Your relatives are here. Isn't it the right thing for our parents to meet?"
"I didn't know my relatives would be coming today. Bai Xiaojiu suddenly understood whether he had misunderstood something, and asked very bluntly: "You don't think my mother is urging marriage, right?" Mu Xize's silence made Bai Xiaojiu pat his forehead,
"Not really. My mom just has a good face and just wants to show off. How long have we been together?"
