"Hey, Mom, I finished my test today. ”

In the Wujiaochang Pedestrian Street next to Fudan University, where people come and go, Zhu Beini and Chen Xiaoxi found a corner with few people and began to make speakerphone calls.

"I know. I'm counting the days. When will you come back? Today or tomorrow?"

Zhu Beini glared at Chen Xiaoxi, who was happily waving two train tickets beside her.

"That, Mom, if I bring Chen Xiaoxi and my boyfriend back-"

"Okay, okay, bring it back to me and your father!"

Chen Xiaoxi jumped up as soon as he said "Yahoo", and his mouth was about to smile crookedly.

Zhu Beini just wants to blow her beard and stare at her: Today's mother, why is she not reserved at all!

"Your father won't let me tell you, for fear of disturbing the morale of the army. In fact, your little aunt, your sister Ali, your second aunt, little aunt, and your third aunt have already pulled me to ask how your boyfriend is talking. When you come back this time, I'll call them all up and show them all......"

Zhu Beini laughed silently and exaggeratedly, squinting at Chen Xiaoxi. Chen Xiaoxi, who was still excited just now, slowly stiffened his smile on his face. As Zhu's mother revealed more and more names, he didn't even have the strength to disguise his smile.

"Oh, yes. How did you do in the exam?" Zhu's mother seemed to suddenly remember.

"What's inside, I'm going to buy a train ticket for tonight!" Zhu Beini hung up the phone.

As soon as the phone hung up, Chen Xiaoxi pulled Zhu Beini's sleeve: "How many relatives do you have?!"

－－

On the provincial trip, Chen Xiaoxi's performance was remarkable.

On the way home, he was very happy, pointing east and west to show Zhu Beini, so that Zhu Beini did not even have time to be depressed.

When the train arrived, Jin Lei drove to pick it up.

Little Gold jumped out of the car, shouted "Mommy", and ran for Zhu Beini. Zhu Beni had no choice but to open her arms tremblingly.

"Hello, Kaneko, I'm Daddy. Chen Xiaoxi stretched out his big hand to the five or six-year-old boy in a serious manner.

Zhu Beini quietly noticed that because Jin Lei came to receive it enthusiastically, Chen Xiaoxi had no private time to prepare a gift for his first visit. She knew that although this would give Chen Xiaoxi the impression of "not being polite", it would not have a substantial impact, so she only thought about it for a moment and did not particularly remind her.

Given Chen Xiaoxi's frugal nature, Zhu Beini didn't even know if he was deliberately pretending not to remember.

Anyway, Chen Xiaoxi, who I saw as far as I could see, hooked up with Jin Lei, happily discussing male topics such as local roads, pillar industries, and Jin Lei's family's main income.

Zhu's father and Zhu's mother were waiting at home, thinking that what they were waiting for would be a pair of shy young people, but they didn't expect the doorbell to ring, and when they opened it, they saw that there were a bunch of young people who were not shy at all, and the youngest of them called "Mom" and "Mom" so much that they exploded.

Zhu's mother clutched her chest, frightened.

She dreamed at night, always feeling that the Jin family was going to come to the door soon, and suggested to her that she call her daughter back from the big city, marry Jin Lei, and be the real mother of Xiao Jinzi. In dreams, this suggestion is extremely seductive. She is very impulsive and wants to say yes every time!

"Hello Auntie!" two single young men greeted her at the same time. Well, one of them is a broken string.

Zhu's mother was in a trance for a while, not knowing whether she was dreaming or not dreaming.

"Mom, Dad, I'm back! Xiao Jinzi insisted that his father pick him up at the train station, so we took Jin Lei's car from the train station and came back directly. Zhu Beini hugged her mother's arm and shook it.

Mother Zhu slowly calmed down and raised her eyes to look at Chen Xiaoxi. He is an extraordinary young man, long, thin, straight, with a smile on his face, and his gestures are not frizzy.

"Hello uncle!" Chen Xiaoxi was about to bow 90 degrees. is obviously more attentive than Jin Lei.

Jin Lei sat for a while, and forcibly took away Xiao Jin with the bait of "inviting my godmother to eat together at night".

Little Gold reluctantly followed his father. The living room was instantly silent.

Zhu Beini thought it was going to be cold, but saw that Chen Xiaoxi unhurriedly took out a small packed box from his backpack.

Zhu Beini was startled-I didn't expect this guy to be prepared for emergencies a long time ago!

The small long gift box is plainly packed, 8 cm wide, 20 cm long, and 4 cm high.

Chen Xiaoxi never revealed it to her, and she couldn't help but guess, maybe it was a necklace?

However, Chen Xiaoxi handed it to Zhu's father.

Chen Xiaoxi turned around again and took out a small square box from his backpack, which was 8 centimeters square, which was less amazing than the small long box just now.

Zhu Beini saw Chen Xiaoxi taking things out of the backpack like magic, and couldn't help but be curious, thinking about Dora's magical Backpack Backpack (the famous backpack in the adventurous Dora), she couldn't help but pounce on it and take a look: "What else is inside?"

Chen Xiaoxi scratched his head: "I have prepared one for you, but I'm afraid you won't want it." ”

"Yes, yes, I want!"

Guessing gifts, opening gifts, or something, has always been Zhu Beini's hobby, okay!

"But in case you think—"

"No! I'm going to love it!"

Chen Xiaoxi had a strange smile on his face, but he just scratched his head again.

Seeing his daughter talking to the young man in front of her so casually, freely, and coquettishly, Zhu's father and Zhu's mother glanced at each other, and quickly staggered, but they were already clear to each other: the overall situation had been decided, and they were not allowed to say too much.

Well, fortunately, they also recognize the big picture.

Zhu Beni was furious and flipped up his magical backpack by herself.

"Not there, in my pocket. ”

Zhu Beini's hand had already been inserted into the pocket of his coat that he was most likely to let go of, and he inadvertently saw that his mother seriously disliked her gaze, so he consciously restrained himself one or two.

"Uh-huh, take it out yourself. With her palms facing up, she held out her hand to him.

Chen Xiaoxi hesitated a little, but Ji Wei, the owner of the venue, took out a smaller 3 cm square black box from his inner chest pocket, this time it was even more simple, and there was no wrapping paper.

Chen Xiaoxi held it in the palm of his hand, and shrunk a little.

Zhu Beini's eyes were quick, with a curious baby's expression, and she snatched it with a smile with her two dark eyes.

Grab your hands and be dumbfounded.

I want to go back and I can't hold it on my face.,The person who swore "I'll definitely like it" just now seems to be herself.。

"That...... Haha, Dad, what's your gift? Mom, what's your gift? Zhu Beini covered the small black box, trying to divert attention.

Father Zhu opened the wrapping paper, and the dark green box was impressively gilded with the words "Issued by the People's Bank of China". Then pad the heavy weight, Zhu's father was delighted, opened it and looked at it, and it was as expected.

"A complete set of gold panda coins issued in 2017!" Daddy Zhu sighed.

"This is the year I met Bennie, and it's the perfect souvenir. Thank you and your aunt for raising such a wonderful daughter that I was lucky enough to meet. Chen Xiaoxi said it well.

Zhu Beini listened sweetly and goosebumps. How could he never have said that to himself?

Father Zhu was hesitant for a while, not knowing whether to accept this somewhat expensive gift.

Mother Zhu was curious, and also accelerated the action of opening the gift in her hand.

"A light perfume!" Zhu's mother smiled second only to the moment she saw her daughter for the first time.

"Yes, Auntie! I have often heard Bennie mention you, and I know that you are a quiet mother who does not like to quarrel. Issey Miyake's water of life, take the fragrance of aquatic flowers, use water lilies, roses, and iris as the top taste, use peony, lily of the valley, jasmine, and carnation as the middle taste, and use cedar, amber, and sandalwood to tone the aftertaste, the overall freshness and elegance are not picked, and you do not pick the occasion, do not pick the season, only pick people, and you are undoubtedly the best match with it. ”

Mother Zhu is mixed with a happy appearance of moving, and the blind can also see it.

Zhu Beini looked at Chen Xiaoxi, and continued to get goosebumps while sighing.

When he took her to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with his parents, she was truly bare-handed, and finally received a super red envelope. For the whole meal, she almost became a rice bucket and a vase of silence. Conversations and inquiries from his mother, as long as she hesitated slightly, he quietly blocked back.

"Thank you, you have a heart! I accepted it!" Zhu's mother made a final decision. Father Zhu didn't push his gift out.

"What about yours?" asked her daughter with a smile on her face.

Ahem, ahem. Zhu Beini coughed nervously.

It's a pity that Zhu's mother was excited and didn't notice Zhu Beini's predicament at all.

Chen Xiaoxi looked at Zhu Beini with bright eyes, her expression focused, with a little expectation, and a little apprehension.

Zhu Beini lowered her head, and a very complicated feeling pouted her. She was flustered and reassured, she was happy and sad, she had a lot to say but just wanted to be silent.

"I seem to be a little thirsty. ”

Seeing Zhu Beini bowing her head and not saying a word, Chen Xiaoxi's expression was slightly cold, but in a flash, he immediately became light again, and helped to divert his attention, pretentiously saying that he was thirsty.

Mother Zhu seemed to suddenly remember: "Yes." This glass of water is going to be cold. Her dad, go pour another cup of hot one. ”

Chen Xiaoxi hurriedly got up and wanted to change the water by himself.

Just when the people and horses of all parties were about to move, "pop", a vigorous opening sound exploded.

Zhu Beini opened the small black box in her hand!

A diamond ring that does not absorb any light source and also shimmers with a brilliant refracted light, resting quietly on the black velvet.

Zhu's mother was obviously shocked.

Father Zhu also stopped reaching for the water cup.

Chen Xiaoxi unconsciously swallowed his saliva nervously.

"I, I—" Zhu Beini was a little speechless.

"I've been carrying it with me for two months. At first, I wanted to give it to you when you had your birthday in December, when I had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, on the night of February 29, and when I was on the train, I wanted to give it to you...... None of them worked out. I've made up my mind that I'm going to give it to you on April 1st anyway, and I'll help you with the reasons for refusing.

I've always been a clean-cut person who does what I want. This time, even I didn't understand where the guts had gone, and how I had hesitated so many times.

Well, now Heaven has mercy on me. In a way I didn't expect, it was delivered to you.

Please don't reject me.

I really want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want to wake up every day to see you, eat delicious things with you, see special scenery with you, and go through the world all the time. ”

Zhu Beini's tears were already falling one by one.

In this world, there are people who love each other every day, and people who get married every day. But that's someone else's story.

The person in front of him, the words in his ear, but they belong to his own story.

"Is that okay?"

Chen Xiaoxi slowly took out the diamond ring in the small black velvet box from Zhu Beini's hand.

Zhu Beini smiled and nodded, tears swaying in her eyes, reflecting the same dazzling light.

Chen Xiaoxi held Zhu Beini's left hand in his left palm, and the small hand was slender, as if it was not fully developed. Gently holding her fingertips, the thumb, index and middle finger of her right hand fixed the outer ring of the ring, and carefully put the ring on Zhu Beini.

Actually, it wasn't very easy, considering they were sitting on the same side.

Chen Xiaoxi did not pull Zhu Beini's arm to his side, but squatted and knelt in front of Zhu Beini.

The ring is set in the middle of the left hand, the size is just right, and the half-point diamond and the jade hand shine together, unexpectedly matching.

Chen Xiaoxi moved and kneaded the little hand that wore his two-month's salary, and wanted to print a kiss, but he was afraid of startling Zhu's father and mother Zhu, who were watching.

"Get up, it's cold on the ground. Zhu's mother was the first to feel sorry for Chen Xiaoxi. The mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law's words, and it was really true!

Only then did Zhu Beini realize that he was kneeling on one knee in front of her.

Tears of happiness rushed out of his eyes and drew a line on his cheeks.

Only Father Zhu was the most divided in the whole process, he was happy and wanted to laugh for a while, and then remembered something and blackened his face, revealing sadness.

Things went unusually smoothly. For dinner, Jin Lei insisted on treating them to their newly opened farmhouse. Jin Lei's family split out the farmhouse in the suburban green base, using a firewood pot. The dishes fried in the pot over the high fire, coupled with the top fresh ingredients, even Chen Xiaoxi, who has never been particular about eating, are full of praise.

Zhu's father wanted to pay, but Jin Lei's mother came out to refuse in person.

Jin Lei's mother wiped her tears, took Zhu's mother's hand and said that her grandmother was old and decrepit, no matter how much she loved Xiao Jinzi, she could only use it in the name of her grandmother. In Jinzi's life, there is a lack of a young and warm female image, and she is grateful to Zhu Beini for being able to see Nana's affection and allow Xiaojin to call her mother.

This was the only heavy topic in the two-day and three-night provincial activities.

At night, Zhu's mother helped Chen Xiaoxi build a bed in the study. Zhu's mother had ulterior motives, and deliberately slept with her daughter at night in the name of "talking about herself".

The next day, the seven aunts and eight aunts really heard the wind and came to Zhu Beini's house together.

Mother Zhu sprinkled the water of her life and opened the door with a smile to invite everyone to inspect the guests. Chen Xiaoxi sat politely with him, and made fun of people in a friendly manner. Fortunately, he bought Zhu's mother in advance.

Zhu's mother's tendencies are too obvious, so that everyone is more willing to laugh at the happiness of the mother-in-law.

Soon it was time to return to Shanghai, and Zhu's father picked a time when Zhu's mother was not there, and secretly blocked his daughter.

Zhu Beini's heart is the most reluctant to face, but it is still here!
