Chapter 59: The Visitation
In the early morning of the weekend, Chen Yidong dug Qinghuan out of the quilt early, and then pushed her to wash and change clothes...... Until the time she got into the car, she still didn't look like she was awake, her head tilted and her eyes closed.
The car drove quickly on the road, and after arriving at the toll booth, it went all the way to the highway, Qing Huan opened his eyes in a daze and glanced out the window, and found that something was wrong, so he straightened up, rubbed his eyes and asked, "Why are you still on the highway?"
Chen Yidong glanced at her with a smile, "Finally woke up?"
Qing Huan's face flushed, and she glanced at him with disgust, it wasn't that someone tossed too late last night, causing her to suffer from serious sleep deprivation.
"Didn't I tell you last time? I'll take you to the nursing home to see grandpa when it's empty, and now we're on our way there. Chen Yidong held the steering wheel with one hand and said lazily.
Qing Huan was stunned for a moment, and then let out an "ah".
"What's wrong?"
"Why didn't you tell me in advance that I was going today, I didn't buy anything, and it was the first time I went to see your family, so I couldn't go to the door empty-handed, right?" and I didn't even change a decent piece of clothes, and I didn't put on makeup...... Qing Huan looked at the T-shirt and shorts he was wearing casually, and said with a sad face.
Chen Yidong glanced at her, and then curled the corners of his lips, "You don't need to buy anything, our family doesn't have this rule, it's good if grandpa likes nature, so if you go to see him like this, maybe he will be happier." ”
Qing Huan glanced at him, and quickly lowered his head and flipped through the bag he was holding casually, to see what was in it, could he remedy it, there was no way to change his clothes, but at least he had to put on light makeup, otherwise he looked like he was sleep-deprived, and his face was as bad as a ghost, how could he see people?
Fortunately, there was always a cushion foundation in the bag to touch up the makeup, Qing Huan quickly took it out and began to flutter on her face, and then used a color-changing lipstick to apply it to her lips.
Chen Yidong occasionally glanced at her while driving, and saw her busy with her hands, for some reason he suddenly felt a little happy in his heart, and the smile on the corner of his lips couldn't be suppressed.
The sanatorium is located on a hillside outside the city of J, and the environment is very quiet, and the road is lined with neat rows of large trees with dense foliage, blocking the hot sun, and you can feel the slightest coolness in the air during such a season. The gate was guarded by armed police, and they were allowed to enter only after checking their documents. With such a formation, I could see that Huan was nervous for a while, his hand was tightly squeezing the strap of the bag, and his knuckles were a little white.
Chen Yidong seemed to see her nervousness, rubbed the back of her head, and inadvertently pressed his chin against her forehead.
After entering through the gate, the car drove for a while, and after crossing a lake, I saw several red and white villas in front of me sitting in the mountains, and they stopped at the door of one of the buildings in the middle. Then a guard stepped forward, and when he saw Chen Yidong, he smiled and said, "The chief has been chattering for a long time since he got up in the morning, and he insists on waiting for you to have lunch together." ”
He didn't listen to the doctor, and it was almost an hour after the meal. After hearing this, Chen Yidong frowned and said, and then walked inside with Qing Huan.
When he went in, Grandpa Chen was directing his aunt to bring out the dishes and put them on the table, his voice sounded full of energy, with a majestic momentum, and when he saw Qing Huan and them come in, his face was full of smiles, "Are you back?"
"Grandpa, why are you disobedient again, who wants you to wait for us to eat?" Chen Yidong stepped forward and said a little unhappily.
"Once in a while, it's not that serious. Grandpa Chen waved his hand and said nonchalantly, and then his eyes fell on Qing Huan's body, and there was a smile in his eyes, "This is Qing Huan, right?" As he spoke, he held out his hand to her.
Qing Huan didn't expect Grandpa Chen to be such a kind and approachable person, and his heart couldn't help but soften, and he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to shake hands: "Hello grandpa." ”
After shaking hands, Qing Huan was still a little cramped, standing in place and glancing at Chen Yidong at a loss.
He looked at her with a smile, "Why are you standing stupidly, don't you wash your hands and prepare for dinner." ”
Qing Huan let out a stupid "oh", and then trotted towards the bathroom.
Hearing her footsteps running away, Chen Yidong glanced at his grandfather and asked, "What do you think?"
"What do you think of yourself?" Grandpa Chen asked him rhetorically, "It doesn't matter how I think you are, what matters is how you feel with her, and it's you who will live together in the future, isn't it?"
Chen Yidong paused for a moment and said, "I like to be with her, she has a real smell on her, which makes people feel very comfortable." ”
"That's enough......" Grandpa Chen smiled and nodded, "As long as you understand that this girl is what you want, that's it, I see that she really likes you in her eyes, you treat others well, don't live up to other people's girls." ”
"Mother's ......" Chen Yidong hesitated for a moment and said softly.
"Leave her alone, I'm playing around there all day long, and I don't want to think about it, when she married your father, she wasn't a good girl. Grandpa Chen snorted a little angrily when he heard this.
"Grandpa, you're running your mother behind your back again. At this time, an elegant voice sounded, Chen Yidong turned his head and looked, it was his sister Chen Wan who came.
"What do you mean behind your back, she said so in front of me. Grandpa Chen glared at her and said with an unhappy expression.
Chen Wan shook his head a little helplessly, and walked over to hold his arm, "It's not that you don't know, my mother is like that, at most, she just talks about it, and she doesn't really do anything." ”
"That's because I'm still here, and she doesn't dare. Grandpa Chen snorted, "If I'm gone, do you see if she will make any waves......"
"Grandpa, what's not there, what are you talking nonsense. Chen Yidong wrinkled his eyebrows and said unhappily.
Grandpa Chen was stunned for a moment, saw that Chen Wan also looked at him with a disapproving face, and then he cracked his mouth and smiled, patted his grandson and granddaughter's hands and said, "Okay, okay, let's go to dinner." ”
With that, the three of them walked in the direction of the dining table.
When Qing Huan came out of the bathroom, he saw another person on the dining table, his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Chen Yidong, very beautiful and temperamental, his hair was pulled into a bun at the back, and he was wearing a light green dress, as beautiful as a beauty in a pictorial, fresh and refined.
This should be Chen Yidong's sister, she probably has a bottom in her heart, and when she walked over, she heard Chen Yidong introduce to her, "This is my sister, Chen Wan." ”
Chen Wan smiled at her, "Hello, Qinghuan." ”
"Hello, sister. Qing Huan suddenly felt a little shy, and stood there and spoke in a low voice.
Chen Wan doesn't look very approachable, but the etiquette is excellent, he speaks calmly and moderately, his expression is calm and calm, his eyes look at you sincerely, which makes people feel a little slack, and he also takes care of Qinghuan when he eats, and after eating, he beckons people to pour tea and cut fruits and put snacks, which makes Qinghuan feel a little flattered.
When everyone was chatting together, Grandpa Chen and Chen Wan didn't inquire about Qinghuan's family background or personal questions at all, but only roughly asked her how old she was and where she worked.
When she heard that Qing Huan was about to go abroad to study again, Chen Wan nodded approvingly and said: "It's good to study more, now there are few girls who can be as calm as you, willing to give up their immediate interests, and choose to continue their studies." ”
Qing Huan's face was hot when she heard this, and she glanced at Chen Yidong with some sneer, this suggestion was still made by him to herself, and she was actually not very happy at first.
Chatting while drinking tea passed unconsciously, when it was almost 4 o'clock, Chen Yidong got up and said that he was leaving, it was more than 3 hours' drive from S City, although Grandpa Chen was reluctant, but he didn't want them to drive at night, so he got up and sent them away.
Before leaving, Chen Wan gave Qinghuan a jade necklace as a meeting gift, and after she took it, she felt more and more embarrassed in her heart. Then I secretly decided in my heart that the next time we met again, I must choose a gift.
On the way back, Qing Huan turned his head to look at Chen Yidong, and then said softly: "I want to go home before going abroad, are you willing to go back with me?"
Chen Yidong smiled and asked, "See your parents?"
Qing Huan didn't answer directly, but just asked, "Do you want to go?"
Chen Yidong nodded, "The Mid-Autumn Festival will be celebrated next month, let's go back together at that time, it will be more formal." ”
Qing Huan's heart suddenly became sweet when he heard this, his parents should be so happy when they see Chen Yidong that queen is gone, right?
During the work handover, she was not so busy, Qinghuan ended the days of working overtime every day, and she was able to get off work on time every day, and she also had time to go to the supermarket, and then buy vegetables every day to cook for Chen Yidong.
On this day, she was picking beef in front of the freezer when she accidentally turned around and bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry. Qing Huan hurriedly apologized, but when he raised his eyes, he was stunned for a moment, and found that the man standing in front of him knew that it was Miss Ning's husband, Wang Qiang.
"Brother Wang?" she hesitated, but said hello.
Wang Qiang was stunned for a moment, stood there and seemed to react for a moment, before he recognized Qing Huan, so he smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Hello, Qing Huan." ”
Qing Huan hadn't seen Wang Qiang for almost a year, and she only felt a little surprised at this time, because the man in front of her had changed a lot, not to mention the whole person, and she was so haggard that she seemed to be ten years old, so she was a little afraid to admit it just now, afraid that she would see the wrong person.
