Chapter 50: Parents Meet

"Yo! So impatient. Zhong Libai joked to the young man, "Are you here to wait for me, or wait for Hong Ye!" ”

"Waiting for you." Song Wenzhi was stunned for a long time and answered her with three words.

Zhong Libai couldn't see the small movements between him and Hong Yemei, and deliberately shook his head and entered the teahouse.

In the hall on the second floor, next to the window, there was a woman dressed as a noblewoman, who looked only about thirty years old, and was very well maintained.

"Sister-in-law, Hong Ye, this is my mother." Song Wenzhi took the two of them over and introduced them to them.

"Your mother?" Zhong Libai showed an exaggerated shocked face, "So young, I thought it was your sister!" ”

When the woman heard others praise her youth, the expression on her face loosened slightly, and she also took the initiative to stand up, and nodded slightly to the two little girls as a greeting.

"Hello Mrs. Song, I'm Zhong Libai, just call me Xiaobai." Zhong Libai politely said hello again.

She pushed Hong Ye beside her, but unfortunately the little girl was obviously stunned, and she shouted Mrs. Mu Ne, and sat down in a daze.

"Mother, this is Hong Ye." Song Wenzhi introduced him in time and sat down.

Song Wenzhi sat on his mother's side, but his eyes were on Hong Ye opposite, and he forgot that he should greet the guest like this.

Zhong Libai waited for a while, and saw that the woman didn't move for a long time, so he had to cough lightly, "Song boy, don't your eyes hurt?" ”

Song Wenzhi just wanted to say that it didn't hurt, but noticed that his mother was staring at his gaze tightly, and immediately beckoned Xiao Er to bring tea and pastries.

"I heard that you want to see me?" The woman took a few sips of tea before asking.

"That's right." Zhongli Bai smiled and replied, "Originally, I was afraid that Song Boy would not be good to our family Hongye, but after seeing Madame, I don't think so." ”

"Oh! Why is that? Mother Song paused before asking.

"With a mother like Mrs. Song, the children who are educated must not be bad." Zhongli Bai picked up nice words and said.

Although Mrs. Song was very happy to be praised, she still did not affirm the peasant daughter-in-law, she put down the teacup and stared at Hong Ye carefully.

"My son is going to go on a career in the future, and the farmer's daughter will definitely not be able to control him." Mrs. Song said bluntly.

She wanted to say that she couldn't support it under such conditions, but after thinking about it, she still gave her son some face, and didn't say it too ugly.

Zhong Libai laughed lightly, "Mrs. Song, do you have any misunderstanding about the peasant family?" ”

She raised her hand to let Song Wenzhi not speak, and continued to ask Mrs. Song, "Farmers don't farm, what do you think you eat?" ”

"I'm also from the countryside, you see that my shop is flying now, and my life is casual, what happened to the farmer? If you can make money, you can't do it. ”

"Song Wenzhi will still study in the future! For a student like him, unless he marries a rich lady and supports him, he is a waste. ”

"I know that your Song family is in good condition, and you want to find a daughter-in-law who is the right person, but do you want your son to be suppressed by your daughter-in-law's family?"

Zhong Libai paused before continuing, "Yes, Mrs. Song, you are indeed young and beautiful now, if you are old or gone, what will Song Wenzhi do?" ”

She took a sip of tea and smiled faintly, "A mother does plan for her child, and I hope he will have a smooth life." ”

"I don't accept ......it," Mrs. Song wanted to refuse.

Zhongli Bai sighed and said softly, "But you can't accompany him for a lifetime, that's a fact." ”

When she thought of her mother, she didn't know if her body was ruined or what happened, and when she thought that her mother would be sad for herself, she felt a little uncomfortable.

"Xiaobai." Hong Ye was next to Zhong Libai, saw the tears in her eyes, and reached out to hug her.

"I'm fine." Zhong Libai laughed, "Mrs. Song, I'm sorry, I'll leave for a while." ”

Hong Ye followed Zhong Libai away, and the two went out of the teahouse and stood on the street to blow the wind.

Zhong Libai was a little uncomfortable because he thought of her mother, and Hong Ye misunderstood that Xiaobai was unhappy because of his own affairs.

"Smell it, this little white girl ......" Mrs. Song and the others left for a while before pulling her son and asking.

Song Wenzhi was so frightened that he immediately explained, "Mother, Xiaobai, that's my sister-in-law, you are not allowed to think nonsense, Brother Lu will kill me if he knows." ”

Mrs. Song's eyes widened, "That Lu?" ”

Song Wenzhi nodded, "That's right, it's that Brother Lu." ”

Mrs. Song swallowed her saliva, no wonder the girl was sharp-toothed, and she was very likable when she spoke, and she didn't blame Lu Gongzi for being able to see it.

Zhongli Bai felt a lot better after blowing the wind for a while, and when he came back, he saw the mother and son whispering, and asked casually, "What are you talking about?" ”

"No, nothing!" Song Wenzhi was so excited that his tongue was knotted.

Zhong Libai didn't ask, and invited Mrs. Song to say, "It's not too early, let's go to the Yinjia Restaurant for a meal!" I please. ”

"Mother, let's go!" Song Wenzhi grabbed his mother, "I heard that there are a few new foods in the hidden family, let's go and take a look." ”

Zhong Libai gave Hong Ye a look and asked her to help Mrs. Song on the other side, while he walked in front to lead the way.

"Good sister, is this missing my brother? It's been a long time since I saw you. Boss Mu was about to go out, and when he met Zhong Libai, he turned back.

"Busy!" Zhongli Bai responded, pointed at Hong Ye and Mrs. Song, and said, "Take the children in the family to meet the future mother-in-law." ”

Only then did Boss Mu see the three people behind Xiaobai, and greeted him with a smile, "Hello Mrs. Song." ”

"You don't need me to introduce you to each other!" Zhong Libai smiled, "Brother Mu, let's have a table of signature dishes." ”

Boss Mu gestured, "Okay, my brother will give you a free order." ”

Zhong Libai didn't refuse, "Then you're going to lose a lot of money today, a few of us are in a good mood today, and we must be able to eat it." ”

"I'm afraid you'll refuse again! Xiaobai can let me have a treat, but Sansheng is lucky! Boss Mu personally led a few people to the private room upstairs.

Leading people upstairs, Boss Mu beckoned a few people to sit down first, "Wait first, I'll go and serve you food." ”

"Little white girl, who are you and Boss Mu?" Mrs. Song was slightly surprised.

Boss Mu can be regarded as a big man in the town, and the Mu family has much more prestige than their Song family, and she usually comes to eat without such good treatment.

Zhongli Bai smiled indifferently, "Partner." ”

Seeing that the little white girl didn't want to say more, Mrs. Song didn't want to ask much, so Boss Mu passed on the food, and accompanied them to eat and chat.

Zhong Libai took Mrs. Song to Zhongji's shop to check it out and asked her how the shop was, and Mrs. Song replied yes.

Before parting, Mrs. Song finally relented, saying that next time she brought Father Song over to see Hong Ye, if Father Song didn't agree, the matter would be over.

Zhong Libai didn't force it, for her, getting Mrs. Song was equivalent to getting the Song family, and Hong Ye's affairs were decided.

It was still early, so she asked Hong Ye to go back to Zhongji first, and went to Uncle Lian by herself to ask him if he could help build a wheelchair.

"Came back so early today?" Lu Zhiqiong beckoned Zhong Libai at the door to enter.

Zhong Libai watched the young man write for a while before he said, "Shall we reopen a shop?" ”

Lu Zhiqiong put down his pen, "Did something happen?" ”

Zhong Ji's business is good, and Zhong Libai will not propose to reopen the shop, after all, there are almost not enough people to grow medicinal herbs at home.

"Hong Ye and Song Wenzhi are going to get married, whether it can be done depends on whether I can help her a little." Zhong Libai explained.

Lu Zhiqiong immediately grasped the point, "Do you want to give them the bell?" ”

Zhong Libai nodded, grabbed Lu Zhiqiong's hand and shook it, "I worked hard to make money just for you, and it wasn't my intention to open a shop, do you support me?" ”

Lu Zhiqiong knew that Xiaobai preferred medical skills, and instead of opening a shop to make money, she preferred to sell it once and for all.

"Immortal, you can say something!" Zhong Libai waited impatiently.

Lu Zhiqiong sighed softly, "You can do what you want, I won't stop you, you won't feel sorry for yourself." ”

Zhong Libai shook his head, "No, no." ”

She knows the essence of Hong Ye, she doesn't hate Song Wenzhi, she doesn't feel at a loss when she sends a shop, what to do in the future depends on the two of them.

"Then send it." Lu Zhiqiong did not stop her generous behavior.

"Tianxian Lu, why are you so good." Zhongli Bai grinned.

After negotiating with Lu Zhiqiong, Zhong Libai went to Lu Carpenter's house, no one knew what they said, in short, the young lady was very happy when she came back.

A few days later, Song Wenzhi sent a letter, saying that his father was free and hoped that Xiaobai would take Hong Ye to the town.

The last meeting was a temptation, and this meeting was a formal meeting, maybe it was a marriage ceremony, Zhong Libai was very cautious.

She asked Hong Ye to greet Grandma Hong, and the Lu family went to her and Lu Zhiqiong, and the two of them could be regarded as witnesses for Song Wenzhi and Hong Ye.

The place where the two families met was also in the Yinjia Restaurant, because Zhong Libai had said hello, Boss Mu specially left a private room for her.

As soon as the Lu family arrived, the Song family also arrived at the door, Song's father was dressed in a dark red robe, and his scholarly temperament was extremely strong, and his appearance was that of Song Wenzhi, who was a little older.

The three families greeted and entered the private room, and the positions were according to Lu Zhiqiong, Father Song, Mrs. Song, Song Wenzhi, Grandma Hong, Hong Ye, and Zhongli sitting in a white circle.

"Dad, mother, let me introduce you." Song Wenzhi, as one of the protagonists, immediately stood up and started.

He pointed to the order and introduced, "This is Grandma Hong, Hong Ye, my sister-in-law, and my eldest brother." ”

The young man came back and introduced, "Grandma Hong, Hong Ye, sister-in-law, eldest brother, this is my father and my mother." ”

Several people immediately greeted each other, and Father Song spoke, "Grandma Hong, I heard from the insiders about the situation of your family, and I have no objection to who Wenzhi likes." ”

Father Song paused before he continued, "Wenzhi is a scholar, and his current expenses are all dependent on the Song family, if he marries a wife, I am afraid that the life of the young couple will be ......."

What Father Song said is not unreasonable, it is natural for him to raise his son, but it is impossible to raise a daughter-in-law, unless he personally agreed to it.

In the final analysis, the Song family still doesn't look down on Hong Ye's identity, and feels that she is not worthy of a talent from a peasant family, not to mention that Song Wenzhi has to continue to take the exam.

Song Wenzhi is already at the top of the list, if he has great achievements in the future, he will inevitably be favored by the official lady, I am afraid that by that time, the Song family will not refuse to have an official daughter-in-law.
