Chapter 180: The Second Visit
Cheng Youli came out of the house in the name of visiting Li Xiaoli and other three sisters, and her parents and brother and sister-in-law did not know her true relationship with Zhang Chengyuan, and only thought that Zhang Chengyuan was a friend and younger brother of Cheng Youli who had a good relationship, so the family treated him warmly and politely. But if they knew that Zhang Chengyuan, the guy who had been in constant scandals, was already Cheng Youli's lover, then maybe they would be so angry that they would kick him out of Lu on the spot and forbid him to visit him again in the future.
On the way, in Zhang Chengyuan's car, Cheng Youli asked: "Chengyuan, your father asked me to go to your house, nothing special, right?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said casually: "I just want to see you, by the way, I invite you to have a meal, what can I do?" ”
Cheng Youli said a little worriedly: "During the Spring Festival last year, didn't your father say that he hoped to have a good chat with my parents when he returned to South Korea next time?" Do you think he'll bring it up again today? ”
Hearing this, Zhang Chengyuan's mood immediately sank, in his opinion, with his father's stubborn and resolute character, this matter is absolutely possible, and it is extremely likely. However, because of his busy work, he had long forgotten about it and had not carried out any related actions at all. And even if he didn't forget and worked hard to promote this matter, he might not let Cheng Youli's parents allow him and Cheng Youli to develop freely, let alone let them officially meet his father as the woman's parent.
As far as he knows, Cheng Youli's parents usually don't have a good impression of male artists, and they don't want her daughter to marry an artist in the future, because they feel that most artists are not very strict in their style, especially male artists. And Zhang Chengyuan happens to be this kind of person in their eyes, although he never goes to entertainment venues, does not smoke, does not drink, and his style seems to be very good, but in newspapers, magazines and other media, his name is often associated with some beautiful female stars, and even Cheng Youli's reputation has been damaged. Usually, if it weren't for the fact that he had a good relationship with Cheng Youli and had a sincere and polite attitude, he might not have bothered to pay attention to him.
"Cheng Yuan, what if your dad really said that?" Cheng Youli repeated.
Zhang Chengyuan said helplessly: "It seems that it can only be delayed." Sister Youli, do my father-in-law and mother-in-law still have a bad impression of me? ”
The titles of father-in-law and mother-in-law, he has already called them hundreds of times in front of Cheng Youli in private, and almost all of Cheng Youli's ears have grown calluses, so he doesn't bother to bother with him, so he lets him call him like this.
Cheng Youli complained: "Who told you to always have scandals? I thought that if Zhang Chengyuan could have fewer scandals, her parents would have a good impression of him, and might even be happy to see them together, so there was no need to worry about this matter at this time.
Zhang Chengyuan defended: "Among so many scandals, except for you and Sister Zhen'er who were blinded by them, the others are all false, and they are all made up by reporters." When many scandals first broke out, except for Li Zhen, Zhang Chengyuan and most of the heroines in the scandal were really innocent, and even when there was a scandal with Cheng Youli filming "The Crown Prince's First Love", the two of them had not yet confirmed their relationship.
However, the media did not wronged him, because later he had a very good relationship with these gossip heroines, even beyond the scope of ordinary friends, such as Kim Tae-hee, Han Chaeyoung and Lee Dahae, who recently cooperated, more or less left a little bit of love between men and women in his heart, and he took advantage of him more or less. Of course, Zhang Chengyuan will never take the initiative to admit these in front of Cheng Youli at this time.
Cheng Youli continued to complain: "That's also because you like to smile with them." Although she also knew that even if Zhang Chengyuan tried his best to keep his distance from them, some unscrupulous reporters would still write these scandals, and she had similar troubles before, but she was very angry that Zhang Chengyuan's scandal made their development not go well, so she was a little angry with him.
Zhang Chengyuan held Cheng Youli's hand and said, "Sister Youli, don't worry, this little difficulty at present will not be difficult for us." ”
Cheng Youli said: "Then what are your plans for today's events?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Leave it to me!" If my dad asks about it, you push it on me, and I'll answer! ”
Cheng Youli said: "Then how are you going to answer?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Tell the truth! ”
Cheng Youli said worriedly: "If you tell the truth, will uncle, blame my parents for being too high-minded and looking down on you, so that they will blame me?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Absolutely not, he will only blame me for not being able to please my father-in-law and mother-in-law." Moreover, you are now much more important in his eyes than me, who is a son, and in order to treat you to a delicious dinner, he spent almost the night studying recipes, trying to cook your favorite dishes, and even asked me to do it for him, so that I didn't sleep all night, if it weren't for my energy, I would have fallen asleep by now. ”
Cheng Youli was both happy and moved: "Wait a minute, I have to praise my uncle's craftsmanship!" Oh, by the way, I forgot to prepare a gift for my uncle, Cheng Yuan, hurry up and find a mall or supermarket that is still open, I want to go and pick a gift. ”
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "You don't need to buy gifts, as long as you respectfully call Dad, he will definitely be so happy that he forgets everything, how can he remember the gift?" ”
Cheng Youli twisted his thigh fiercely, and said, "Now you still have the heart to joke, it's almost five o'clock, why don't you hurry up and find it, well, go to Itaewon, you should be able to find it there." "In the past few days of the Spring Festival, maybe there are still some businesses in that place that are open normally.
Zhang Chengyuan said: "No need, I'm ready for you." "Actually, it's not a big deal if you don't prepare, Zhang Donghu won't care about this at all, as long as Cheng Youli comes.
After arriving at Zhang Chengyuan's old house, he opened the door and went in, Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli immediately smelled a faint fragrance of vegetables, and Zhang Chengyuan also heard the sound from the kitchen, so he said: "Your father-in-law is cooking food for you!" Let's go inside. ”
Cheng Youli glared at Zhang Chengyuan angrily, she was so nervous now that she was joking, but he was still joking heartlessly, if he hadn't entered Zhang's house, she really wanted to teach him a good lesson.
Taking off his shoes and entering the living room, putting the gifts on a table, Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli went to the kitchen to see Zhang Donghu, Zhang Chengyuan shouted: "Father, I invited your daughter-in-law for you!" ”
Zhang Donghu looked back and saw Cheng Youli, who was dressed very elegantly but still dignified and beautiful, and immediately laughed: "Youli, you are here, go out and sit for a while, I will be fine here immediately." ”
When Zhang Donghu turned around, Cheng Youli immediately bowed to him, and after hearing his words, he said, "Uncle, I'll help you." ”
Zhang Donghu said gently: "No need! looked at Zhang Chengyuan, and then said: "Chengyuan, take Youli out of the house to watch TV, or take a walk in the yard." ”
Zhang Chengyuan nodded yes and pulled Cheng Youli out.
The yard is not big, because no one often rectifies, so the weeds are overgrown, although Zhang Donghu has also done some treatment in the past few days, there are still many weeds that have not been cleaned up. In the grass, only two plum trees transplanted by Zhang Chengyuan a few years ago are still alive in this winter, and the branches are dotted with red plums, which are very beautiful.
Zhang Chengyuan sighed: "This is what I planted in 98, I can't imagine that it has not been repaired for so many years, and it is still alive and well." ”
Cheng Youli asked, "Do you like plum blossoms?" ”
"Yes, because she's so arrogant, I've always thought she resembled me, but now I seem to be far less like her." He had already sensed that his character had deteriorated a lot, but for the sake of life, for the sake of something he wanted, he had to make some changes.
Cheng Youli looked at Zhang Chengyuan and comforted: "In my eyes, you are still as strong and arrogant as before, except for one more flowery problem." ”
Zhang Chengyuan hugged Cheng Youli and said gratefully: "Sister Youli, thank you for looking at me like this!" ”
Cheng Youli suddenly said: "In the future, our house will have a big courtyard, and then plant many plum trees." ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Definitely! ”
……
The two patrolled the courtyard for more than ten minutes, chatting about some topics at random, and then heard Zhang Donghu's greeting, so they hurriedly entered the house.
It was nearly six o'clock, it was starting to get dark, and it was time for dinner. The three of them put the food on the table one by one, almost filling the table, Cheng Youli counted it, exactly fifteen dishes, and a few dishes of side dishes and seasonings, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "So many dishes!" How can the three of us finish eating? ”
Zhang Donghu said: "It doesn't matter if you can't finish eating, put it in the refrigerator, and I'll take it out and eat it hot later." Let's start eating now! With that, he picked up his chopsticks and began to eat.
Then, Zhang Chengyuan also immediately picked up the chopsticks, sandwiched several of Cheng Youli's favorite dishes and put them in Cheng Youli's bowl, if it was ribs, fish and other dishes with bones and thorns, he also specially picked out the bones and fish bones first, his movements were light and fast, and after a while, Cheng Youli's bowl was full of dishes.
He was used to doing this, but it made Cheng Youli embarrassed, because she didn't want Zhang Donghu to think that she was pampered, or often drove Zhang Chengyuan to do things. But I didn't know that after Zhang Donghu saw this scene, he was not angry but happy, and said in his heart: "I can't imagine that I, a cold son, still know how to please women, no wonder Youli, a beautiful and well-behaved girl, will be deceived by him." ”
Cheng You used her gaze to signal Zhang Chengyuan not to pick up vegetables for her anymore, and then said to Zhang Donghu respectfully: "Uncle, I've worked hard for you, then I'll start eating." ”
Zhang Donghu said happily: "Okay, good, eat more, listen to Cheng Yuan, these are what you love to eat." ”
Cheng Youli nodded and thanked him again, and then began to eat, and praised Zhang Donghu's craftsmanship from time to time, and asked him for cooking experience, which made Zhang Donghu smile more and more.
Zhang Chengyuan looked at Cheng Youli and smiled, and said in his heart: "Sister Youli, you are quite good at complimenting people." ”
After eating, Cheng Youli invited Zhang Donghu to sit down and rest, while she and Zhang Chengyuan began to tidy up the remaining dishes and put them in the refrigerator, and then cleaned the table and washed the dishes and chopsticks, showing her good potential to become a housewife.
Zhang Donghu looked at Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli's tacit understanding and happy appearance, and became more and more satisfied with Cheng Youli, wishing that she could marry into the Zhang family immediately and become his daughter-in-law, if she could give birth to one or two children within a few years, it would be even better. However, he also knew that this was unlikely, Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli were both actors, and Zhang Chengyuan wanted to achieve a higher career, so he wanted the two to get married early, but I was afraid that it would be difficult to do it.
After tidying up the housework, Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli returned to the living room and talked with Zhang Donghu, of course, the main thing was the communication between Zhang Donghu and Cheng Youli, and Zhang Chengyuan only interjected a few words occasionally. Zhang Chengyuan also knew that he was only a supporting role tonight, Zhang Donghu and Cheng Youli didn't have the heart to talk to him, and he was happy to be relaxed, but he didn't dare to be careless, because he was always worried that Zhang Donghu would say "I want to meet Cheng Youli's parents".
But no matter how worried he was, what should have come was always coming.
After chatting for more than an hour, Zhang Donghu suddenly said: "Youli, tell your father for me, I want to meet him." ”
Cheng Youli was immediately stunned, immediately looked at Zhang Chengyuan, and asked him for help.
Zhang Chengyuan hurriedly said: "I want to tell you about this matter." ”
Zhang Donghu glanced at Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli, and when he saw that their expressions were different, he knew that there might be a problem with this matter, and said in a deep voice: "Say it!" ”
Zhang Chengyuan briefly said that Cheng Youli's parents didn't like their daughter marrying a male artist, and continued: "Therefore, Sister Youli's parents don't know about our affairs!" ”
Zhang Donghu asked, "Then how long do you want to delay?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan replied: "I may have to wait for another three or five years, and after I make greater achievements, maybe they will not object, and besides, we are not very old, and we have no idea of getting married for the time being." ”
Zhang Donghu scolded angrily: "Stinky boy, you drag on for a year a year, when do you want to delay, if you don't have greater achievements in three or five years, do you have to wait for another three years?" You can afford to be dragged by a big man, but Youli can't wait, she is twenty-five or six years old this year, which is the best age to get married, do you have to wait for her to pass thirty? ”
Zhang Chengyuan was reprimanded loudly by Zhang Donghu for the first time after his reincarnation, but Lao Tzu scolded his son for what was right, and he was indeed a little wrong in this matter, so Zhang Chengyuan did not feel unconvinced.
Seeing that Zhang Donghu was angry, Cheng Youli hurriedly said, "Uncle, it's okay, I can wait!" ”
Zhang Donghu glanced at her lovingly and said, "Don't get used to him, youth is the most precious to women, why make such a big sacrifice for him?" ”
Cheng Youli distinguished: "No, I also want to have a better harvest on the road of acting before I get married." ”
……
Under the persuasion of Cheng Youli, Zhang Donghu reluctantly stopped his anger, temporarily put aside the matter, and promised to give Zhang Chengyuan 3-5 years, but the two must get married by then, and in addition, they must get the permission of Cheng Youli's parents within two years.
Zhang Chengyuan held the mentality of being able to procrastinate, pretended to be extremely sincere, and agreed for the time being, Cheng Youli naturally had no opinion, she was older than Zhang Chengyuan, and she didn't have much ambition in her career, so it was more in her mind to get married earlier.
Then, Zhang Donghu smiled and talked to Cheng Youli about miscellaneous things, and his attitude did not change, and even became gentler. Sure enough, as Zhang Chengyuan expected, he didn't blame Cheng Youli at all, and put all the blame on Zhang Chengyuan. However, the fact is also true, Cheng Youli was not wrong in the first place, but Zhang Chengyuan, a guy who likes to mess with flowers more and more, is close to beautiful women everywhere, so that he makes a lot of indecent news, so that Cheng Youli's parents don't have a good impression of him, so they got into this situation.
At around ten o'clock in the evening, Zhang Chengyuan drove Cheng Youli home.
Cheng Youli said: "Cheng Yuan, do you really want to get married in three or five years?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "If you want, then we will get married, if you think it's too hasty, then it's a little later, Sister Youli, you have the final say in this matter!" ”
Cheng Youli pursed his lips and couldn't help but smile: "Are you really willing?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said without hesitation: "Of course! Of course he is willing, after getting married, he can sleep with Cheng Youli every day, and then buy a big house, and the other three sisters can often come to see him in the name of visiting Cheng Youli, and it is not a big deal to even live directly.
"Aren't you afraid that the fans will run away and your popularity will plummet?" Most of Jang Sung-won's fans are young women, and if he gets married, he will definitely lose countless fans.
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "Even if you lose it for a while, you can get back together soon, there's nothing to worry about." Anyway, I never promised the fans that I wouldn't get married! "When he makes enough money, even if he can't become a star, it's not a big deal, let alone a small thing like losing popularity.
Cheng Youli said: "I hope so! ”
Zhang Chengyuan smiled again: "I'm worried that if you marry someone like me who is evaluated by the media as a playboy, will your fans be very dissatisfied and write a bloody letter to intimidate me?" ”
Cheng Youli opened his eyebrows and smiled: "If this is the case, it will be fun!" "With Zhang Chengyuan's ability, how many people can threaten him? Cheng Youli's words are naturally a joke, but if fans can make Zhang Chengyuan regain his heart and make fewer beautiful sisters and sisters, it will be an unexpected gain.
Zhang Chengyuan kissed her on the forehead and said sincerely: "Sister Youli, believe me!" I will never let you four down! ”
