Chapter 611: Parents Meet
"Brother, what are you doing when you see him!"
Hearing Qin Hai's request, Qin Shan's face suddenly turned pale and asked nervously.
"Hey, he's going to chase my sister, shouldn't he be censored by me as an elder brother?" Qin Hai said.
"What are you going to tell him?" Qin Shan asked.
Qin Hai shook his head and said, "I won't say anything to him, just chat casually, mainly to see this person's character." You have too little social experience, and I'm afraid you'll fall for the bad guys. ”
"Xuezhecai is not a bad person, he is just a nerd, and he is not as social experience as me." Qin Shan stomped his feet and argued.
Ning Jing interjected on the side: "Shan'er, I also think you should let Qin Hai meet Xiao Cui, after all, you have been talking for so long, and it is time to meet the parents of both sides." Qin Hai rarely came to the capital, if he missed this time, he didn't know when the next time would be. Both of you are not young anymore, do you still have to drag it out like this? ”
"But, who knows what my brother will say......" Qin Shan said duplicity.
What Tranquility said was actually what Qin Shan thought in her heart. She and Cui Xuezhe have been dating for more than a year, and they have already begun to discuss the matter of starting a family and buying a house in the future. She just couldn't muster up the courage to confess this to her parents, but from the bottom of her heart, she also hoped that her family could meet Cui Xuezhe earlier and give them a pass. Qin Hai now took the initiative to see Cui Xuezhe, on the one hand, she was happy, on the other hand, she was full of nervousness, and the feeling of suffering from gains and losses was really indescribable.
"Don't worry, I won't expose your lies. You said that I came to the capital on a business trip, and the air conditioner in the toilet of Huaqing University was broken, so I was asked to come and repair it. I'm just chatting with him. Look at his character, what are you afraid of? Qin Hai said.
"You really don't put on the chairman's shelf?" Qin Shan asked.
"No." Qin Hai replied.
"Don't you say we have money in our family?"
"Don't say it."
"Well, okay then...... I'll get in touch with him. Qin Shan squirmed and stood up, went into the house and made a call.
Ning Jing watched Qin Shan walk away, took a small digital pager from the table, and said to Qin Hai with a wry smile:
Shan'er wanted to keep Xiao Cui from knowing that she was rich. Pretending to be bitter enough. She obviously has a mobile phone, but she never takes it out when she goes on a date. There are landlines installed in the rooms of the two of us, and she doesn't tell Xiao Cui, so she asks Xiao Cui to pager her if she has something, and she goes back again, and she has to wait a few minutes each time to come back, pretending to go to the duty room to call.
You see, this little pager was given to her by Xiao Cui, and it cost more than 500 yuan. Now there is that kind of Hanxian pager on the market. It costs more than 2,000 yuan, and Xiao Cui can't afford it. ”
"Sometimes, I really envy their kind of life." Qin Hai sighed, "I'm so poor now that I only have money left, and I can't find the happiness of spending 500 yuan to buy a digital machine for my girlfriend." ”
Tranquility reprimanded half-angrily: "Forget it, when people have 600 yuan, they are willing to take out 500 yuan to buy a digital machine for their girlfriend." You have billions, and you can't even afford to spend 1 million to buy a diamond ring for your girlfriend. ”
"Aren't you wearing a diamond ring now?" Qin Hai retorted.
"It was given by Prince Frantin. Why don't you want to buy it? Tranquility touched the bright diamond ring on her hand and said with a smile.
This diamond ring was given to him by Flandin as a thank you gift when Qin Hai was treating the oil pollution at sea for Prince Flandin on the seashore of Le Havre. There were more than a dozen diamond rings sent by Flandin. Qin Shan and Qin Ling both got one, but the best one was the one that was now worn on Ningning's hand. Qin Hai remembered that when he gave the diamond ring to Tranquility, Tranquility's eyes flashed with excitement. Don't look at Tranquility as a female doctor of superconductivity, she is no different from other girls in this regard.
Just because this diamond ring was given to Qin Hai by someone else, and Qin Hai then transferred it to Ning Jing, Ning Jing used this to tease Qin Hai if he was fine. said that he was too picky, and even gave his girlfriend a diamond ring to take advantage of this kind of small advantage. Of course, this is just a joke, and it was Tranquility herself who refused to buy a high-priced diamond ring in Paris. Because she is essentially just a girl from an ordinary family, she is very cautious about spending money.
While the two were chatting, Qin Shan came out of the room with a slightly worried expression on her face. Qin Hai asked, "How is it, is the appointment made?" ”
"Make an appointment......" Qin Shan sat down on the sofa, hesitated for a while, and then said, "He said that his parents also want to see us." ”
"That's what it means for parents to meet." Qin Hai smiled, "Okay, just take this opportunity to see each other, and I'll also see what his family is like." We have a local saying in Anhe, called 'marrying relatives to see three generations', let's not say that the door is right, the other party must be a sincere family, right? ”
"But......" Qin Shan stood up.
"How?" Qin Hai asked.
Qin Shan said: "What if his parents dislike our family and are not as good as them?" ”
"Disliked?" Qin Hai's head was full of black lines, "We don't dare to say in the world, in China, there don't seem to be many people who are qualified to dislike our family, right?" ”
"I'm telling you seriously!" Qin Shan was anxious, and even a little tear flashed in his eyes, "I'm not talking about the real situation of our family, I mean, his parents are government cadres in the capital, but I said that our parents are workers in township enterprises, and you are also workers in the county factory, Xuezhe has never said that he looks down on the people in our family, what if his parents are a little snobbish?" ”
"Then let's talk straight ahead and say that your brother is now worth more than one billion, and even you yourself have a dowry of tens of millions." Qin Hai said with a smile.
"That Xuezhe will definitely not be able to accept it!" Qin Shan said.
"Shan'er, don't worry." Ning Ning patted Qin Shan's arm and said, "Xiao Cui must know who his parents are, if his parents were really snobs, Xiao Cui wouldn't let them come to see you and Qin Hai." I think that the set of rhetoric you made up, Xiao Cui must have told his parents. Regardless of whether your family is rural or not, you are a doctor of Huaqing anyway, which is enough to be worthy of Xiao Cui. ”
"Alas, that's the only way to go......" Qin Shan said helplessly.
This is really an unsolvable problem, if you talk about your family background too well, it may make the other party feel pressured, or as Qin Hai is worried about, it will attract some people who want to take the opportunity to hug your thick legs; But if you talk about your family background too badly, you have to worry about whether the other party will look down on you. Qin Shan is so entangled, in the final analysis, it is because she is too deep, young people in love are hopeless, and Qin Hai has nothing to do about it.
The meeting between the parents of the two sides was scheduled for dinner the next day, and the place was in the area of Heping Street in the North Third Ring Road, which was originally a place with a relatively large concentration of government agencies.
Tranquility is not a legitimate sister-in-law yet, so it is not suitable to participate in such a meeting. If Cui Xuezhe hadn't arranged for his parents to attend, it wouldn't hurt for Tranquility to accompany Qin Hai over, because everyone was young and it was easier to talk. Now that the elders were present, it was a little embarrassing for Tranquility to appear, so she simply didn't let her attend.
In order to make Qin Hai look more like a worker, Qin Shan and Ning Jing really put in a little effort. Although Qin Hai does not pursue any luxury brands, he often participates in some high-level business activities, so he is still somewhat particular about dressing. Now if you want to pretend to be an ordinary worker with a low income, you must change all the valuable clothes on your body, so that people feel that they are young workers from a small place at first glance.
It is obviously not appropriate to go to the market to buy new clothes, Qin Hai called Su Yabo and asked the group's office to send a few sets of blue cardinal cloth overalls, and the words "Qingfeng Machinery Factory" were also on the overalls, which looked really troublesome.
"Brother Qin, Qin Shan, you are here, come and sit inside......"
The brother and sister came to the restaurant they had agreed upon, and Cui Xuezhe had already been waiting there. Seeing the two coming from the bus stop, the young man hurriedly stepped forward, his face full of enthusiastic smiles. In fact, Cui Xuezhe's age is the same as Qin Hai, but as a brother-in-law, he is naturally half shorter.
"It's a philosopher, right? My name is Qin Hai. Qin Hai stretched out his hand without humility or arrogance, shook hands with Cui Xuezhe, and then walked towards the restaurant with him.
Qin Shan followed Qin Hai's side, she didn't dare to run to the other side to hold hands with her boyfriend, and for the first time she showed her boyfriend in front of her family, she was still a little restrained.
"I called my dad just now, and he said that there is still a little thing to deal with in the unit, so he will come over a little later, and he also specifically asked me to apologize to Brother Qin." Cui Xuezhe explained to Qin Hai.
Qin Hai said: "Don't dare, don't dare, it's still important to work, let's eat and chat as a family, it doesn't matter if you wait for a while." ”
While speaking, the three of them had already walked into the private room, and Cui Xuezhe pointed to the position of the head and said to Qin Hai: "Brother Qin, you are a guest from afar, please take a seat." ”
"This can't be done, uncle and aunt will come in a while, they are elders, how dare I sit at the table?" Qin Hai said.
"Actually...... My dad was very casual. Cui Xuezhe said sneeringly, but he also knew that Qin Hai was right to say this, so he didn't insist any longer.
Qin Hai sat down next to the main seat, and Cui Xuezhe and Qin Shan naturally sat down. Seeing that Cui Xuezhe was even more cramped than Qin Shan, Qin Hai felt slightly satisfied in his heart. Most of the children who grew up in the capital are relatively flamboyant, and doctors of the Academy of Sciences like Cui Xuezhe may generally be a little arrogant. Now it seems that this young man is not arrogant, which is indeed commendable.
"Xiao Cui, listen to Xiao Shan, you are a doctor from the Institute of Materials of the Academy of Sciences, what are you studying?" Qin Hai spoke, he wanted to test the other party's ability. (To be continued......)
