Chapter 614: Abbey 20
The Zhang family, the whole family has gathered.
The domestic servants are all on holiday, and the Zhang family eats out every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, and this year is no exception.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the family set off to the hotel that had been booked before, and in the box, there was a large table, and more than 20 people sat together, which was very lively.
Halfway through the meal, the adults went to the side booth to play mahjong, and the rest were young people, who gathered together without taboos, drinking wine and chatting about various topics.
Zhang Bai had drunk a little too much tonight, and he leaned back in his chair and listened to their chat, not wanting to speak.
Big brother Zhang Lin stood up and walked to the empty place next to him and sat down, handed him a cup of hot tea, Zhang Bai reached out and took it, "Thank you, big brother." β
Zhang Lin looked at him, "I've been tired lately, I saw that you didn't say a few words all night." β
"Well, last night's year-end summary was done until the early hours of the morning, and this morning my mother picked it up to accompany her to buy something. β
"If you're tired, go back early to rest, and as is customary, we'll all have to stay with them all night tonight. β
Zhang Bai glanced at the cubicle, retracted his gaze, and hooked the corners of his lips, "I'll sit down for a while." β
"Listen to our mother, are you with that flower girl?"
Speaking of Xu Ai, the expression on Zhang Bai's face softened unconsciously, "Hmm." β
Zhang Lin nodded, "After so many years, you finally fell in love with a girl, and you are happy to be the eldest brother." β
Zhang Bai smiled, was silent for a moment, and then asked Zhang Lin with a serious face, "Big brother, I want to book the family affairs as soon as possible." β
"Yes, but before the family is settled, do you have to bring the girl home for the family to see? β
"After the New Year, I'll discuss it with her when she comes back after the New Year. β
"Well, and before the girl comes to our house, do you have to go to her house to formally visit her parents? This is the most basic etiquette, our Zhang family is everyone, we should pay more attention to these things. β
Zhang Bai, "I'll discuss it with my parents tomorrow." β
"If there is anything you need to talk to me, you need to bring gifts to visit and I will prepare. β
"No," Zhang Bai continued, "I'll prepare it myself." β
Zhang Lin smiled, "That's right, the son-in-law naturally wants to show his heart when he meets his future father-in-law and mother-in-law." β
Zhang Bai smiled and didn't speak again.
......
Xu Ai's family's Chinese New Year's Eve meal was relatively plain.
A family of five sat around the dining table, watching the Spring Festival Gala while eating, Professor Xu accompanied his old father-in-law to drink a few glasses of wine, Ms. Chen chatted with her grandmother, Xu Ai grabbed red envelopes in major WeChat groups while holding her mobile phone while eating, and she was happy for a long time when the amount of red envelopes she grabbed exceeded two yuan each time.
After eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the family sat together drinking tea and eating fruit to continue watching the Spring Festival Gala, at eleven o'clock, grandparents went to sleep, Professor Xu drank a little high, had to pester Ms. Chen to sleep with him, and finally only Xu Ai was left alone in front of the TV, grabbing red envelopes while keeping the year.
At twelve o'clock in the morning, she received a call from Zhang Bai.
His voice sounded a little drunk, and Xu Ai asked him, "Sounds like I've drunk a lot tonight, Officer Zhang." β
Zhang Bai smiled lowly over there, "Not much, I'm not drunk." β
"You're not drunk?"
"If you don't believe me, you can ask me a question. β
"Okay, who am I?"
Zhang Bai laughed at the other end again, and his low laughter was particularly sultry.
Even if he was separated by a distance of hundreds of kilometers, Xu Ai was still teased by him.
Just when her face was red and her heart was beating like thunder, Zhang Bai's low and magnetic voice came, "Little fool, you are my daughter-in-law." β
Xu Ai listened sweetly, but still hated him, "Shameless, who is your daughter-in-law, I don't admit it." β
Zhang Bai was laughing over there again, and Xu Ai's heart was hot when he heard it, "What are you laughing at?"
"Lovely. β
"Who's cute?"
"My daughter-in-law. β
β......β
The two chatted messily for a while, and when they hung up the phone, Zhang Bai suddenly asked her, "Ai Ai, let's get married?"
Xu Ai was stunned.
She didn't expect him to say this suddenly, but when she came to her senses, she wanted to laugh, "You're really drunk." β
"I'm not drunk, I'm sober now, don't you want to marry me?"
Xu Ai was angry, "Did you propose like this?"
"I see. β
"What do you know?"
"If you want a marriage proposal, I'll give it to you. β
β...... What do you want to do? Don't be impulsive, I'm just saying, we don't have to be in such a hurry now, right?"
"I'm in a hurry," Zhang Bai lowered his voice, with a bit of urgency, "Daughter-in-law, I'm already in a hurry, I want to sleep with you every night, I want you to ......"
Xu Ai, "......."
This guy is in heat.
......
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Ai was still dreaming of Zhou Gong in bed, and the relatives of the family came to pay their respects to his grandparents and grandmothers.
Ms. Chen dragged Xu Ai up from the bed, and did not forget to instruct, "Dress me up beautifully today, your Aunt Qin pressed me last year, and I have to win back a game this year." β
Xu Ai yawned and said, "You two are not naΓ―ve, you are not naΓ―ve, you have to compare with the party every year, and I will be annoyed to death." β
"What do you know?" Ms. Chen glanced at her, "Didn't her family buy her a diamond necklace last year? β
Xu Ai, "Isn't it just a diamond necklace?" You can wear the jade bracelet I bought for you the year before last to show you the hundreds of thousands. β
"Hmph, I'm reluctant to wear it, in case I accidentally break it, it's still me who feels distressed. β
"Then you can put on the diamond bracelet that my dad bought for you this year, and that thing won't break. β
"No," Ms. Chen immediately flashed her wrist, revealing a shiny bracelet, which was particularly dazzling.
Ms. Chen withdrew her hand and told Xu Ai, "You also put on your one, and we will shine together when the time comes." β
"Childish. β
"Also, put on your red coat and put your LV handbag on your back......"
"Mom, my real mother, will you spare me?" Xu Ai sent Ms. Chen out of her room with half a drag, and then blocked the door and said to her, "Your daughter is so beautiful, just standing in the crowd like this can earn you enough face." β
Ms. Chen nodded approvingly, "That's the case." β
After speaking, she added, "Remember to wear the bracelet, and the emerald earrings that your grandmother gave you before should also be worn for me. β
"Okay, I'll listen to you. β
When Ms. Chen saw that she had agreed to come down, she went downstairs satisfied.
Xu Ai returned to the room, went to wash up first, and after washing, he came out and began to clean himself up.
She obediently put on the bracelet, put on the emerald earlobes, the tomato red coat, a simple pair of black trousers underneath, her long hair was curled by her big waves, she wore light makeup, her lips were red and her teeth were white, delicate and moving.
When she went downstairs, the seven aunts and eight aunts of the family had arrived.
The originally spacious living room was full of people at the moment, and everyone said a word to me, and Xu Ai's ears were buzzing.
As soon as she appeared in the living room, she immediately attracted everyone's attention.
After a second of silence, she was surrounded.
Everyone surrounded her, and some people praised her......
"Our Ai Ai is beautiful again, this little face looks like a flower, it's really beautiful. β
Some people also praised her for her beautiful clothes, "Xiao Ai, where did you buy these clothes? This color is very beautiful, it doesn't look like a big red, right?"
Xu Ai replied to her politely, "Tomato red, a little darker than big red." β
"We don't have a mall here, right?"
"I bought it in Beicheng, and I don't know much about it. β
Some people also spotted the bracelet she was wearing, "Ah, Ai Ai's bracelet is new, right?
Xu Ai generously showed the bracelet, let the big guys take a look, and finally hooked Ms. Chen's arm on the side, and said with a smile, "My Professor Xu bought it for the two of us, and my mother also has one." β
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the envy of the big guys.
Aunt Qin, who hadn't spoken, finally opened her mouth, "The third child, it's still your old Xu who will hurt people, but my old Wang won't be good, the last time I went to Hong Kong, I asked him to buy me a bracelet, but he just bought me a LV back, look at ......"
As she spoke, she shook the bag in her hand, "It's so expensive, I don't like to carry it, it's a waste." β
Crowd, "......."
Ms. Chen pinched Xu Ai with her hand and whispered in her ear, "Dead boy, I asked you to carry the bag down, you have to carry it, now it's okay, and she pressed her head again." β
"Suppress it, press it, and you can't drop a piece of meat anyway. β
The two leaned together and bit their ears, but Aunt Qin opened her mouth again, and asked Xu Ai, "Ai Ai, how old is this year?"
"Aunt Huiqin, I'm twenty-six. β
"Are you twenty-six?" Aunt Qin looked surprised, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Xu Ai rolled her eyes in her heart and replied to her shyly on the surface, "There is." β
As soon as she said this, everyone became interested.
Aunt Qin naturally took the lead and asked her the most emotional question, "Where is the other party? What kind of job, what are the family conditions?"
Xu Ai, "He is from Beicheng and is a criminal policeman, we have just been dating, and I haven't been to his house yet, so I don't know much about his family." β
"Then you didn't ask him?"
On the side, Ms. Chen spoke slowly, "The two have not been dating for a long time, the first thing to understand is their personalities and three views on each other, rather than being anxious to inquire about each other's family situation, don't you say?"
Someone agreed, "This is right, you have to look at the character first and then look at the family background, the character is not good, and the family background is not good." β
Aunt Qin had a sneering expression on her face, "This is the reason, I'm not afraid that our family Ai Ai will suffer, in case the other party's family background is not good, and if I really want to marry in the future, wouldn't I be guilty." β
"No," Ms. Chen opened her mouth again, "Ai Ai's father saw the child once, and had dinner together, and he told me that the child was educated at first glance, and the family conditions were naturally not much worse. β
Aunt Qin still didn't give up, and then asked, "Is it a criminal policeman? β
In a word, it caused a heated discussion among the big guys.
Someone said, "It's very dangerous, my neighbor's boss is a policeman, and he was stabbed by a fugitive in the early spring of last year, and he almost didn't save him." β
