That night, when I dragged my luggage away with my head held high under the gaze of Father Xue, I never thought that one day, I would still stand in front of him again as an unrecognized daughter-in-law.

From the bottom of my heart, I was even more apprehensive than the first time.

Father Xue's words that trampled on my self-esteem and his contemptuous eyes always flashed in my mind.

If I go and come back, he must think that I have some purpose, right?

At this moment, I think I probably really fell in love with Xue Duyun, if I didn't have the power of love, where would I have the courage to step into the Xue family again.

My messy mind was still messed up, and the car had already stopped.

I looked back and found that the car had been parked in the courtyard of the Xue family.

When I got out of the car, I was so nervous that I had nowhere to put my hands, and suddenly realized that I should buy more gifts to carry in my hands so that I would be less embarrassed.

There was a brand new car parked in the yard, not even a license plate yet, it should be a new car that had just been picked up from the dealership.

I didn't know much about cars, and I looked at it and thought it should be a good car.

I never knew what Xue Duyun's father did, I guess he should have been more successful when he was young, and he would put himself in a very high position if he had capital, and looked down on us poor people who were crawling at the bottom of society.

Xue Duyun's stepmother, Wen Biru, walked out of the house, and the smile on her face was a little more than the last time we came.

But I always felt that her smile was not up to the bottom of my eyes!

Xue Duyun should be able to sense my nervousness, still holding my hand and walking inside.

The palm of my hand transmits not only the temperature, but also the power that reassures me.

Walking into the living room, I quickly saw Father Xue leaning on the sofa.

He was wearing a light gray sweater today, and the soft texture of the dress made his silhouette look a little less harsh.

There is also a reason why he doesn't look stern, and it's because he has a smile on his face.

The person who laughed with him was a young girl sitting across from him, and they were talking and laughing, as if they were talking very speculatively.

Probably hearing our footsteps as we entered, they stopped talking and looked over at us.

I didn't dare to look at Father Xue's expression, and I felt that my feet were like stepping on a steel needle, which was extremely uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Father Xue was not as indifferent as he was in the villa that day, but said lightly, "Come back, sit down!" ”

After I sat down beside Xue Duyun stiffly, I subconsciously looked at the girl who was sitting not far away.

She looked younger than I was, and there was a vigor in her eyes and smile that I could never get back in a woman like me who had crawled out of a failed marriage.

It's not particularly pretty, but the facial features feel very comfortable, wearing a black loose T-shirt with a linen texture, beige cropped pants, the posture of the legs overlapping is very elegant, and the exposed half of the calf looks particularly slender.

If I look closely, I think she is a little familiar, and when I search through my memory, I have no impression of her at all.

"Xue Duyun?"

She seemed to be smiling, and looked at Xue Duyun with generous eyes.

"Qianqian."

Wen Biru, who was standing on the side, looked at her accusatoryly.

"Qianqian, Duyun is older than you, you call me brother, how can you call your name directly?"

The girl named Qianqian smiled disappreciatively, her exposed teeth white and neat.

"Mom, you're old, you don't understand the way we young people get along, we young people don't have so many rules, obviously not much older than me, I'm still called brother, how embarrassing, and awkward!"

She called her mom? So she's her daughter?

I suddenly understood why she was familiar, she was really similar to Wen Biru.

Father Xue laughed heartily when he heard this.

"Qianqian is right, you just don't care, let them young people go."

Yu Qian smiled, turned her head and took out a delicately packaged box from her bag, and handed it to Father Xue.

"Uncle Xue, happy birthday, this is a little bit of caution on my part, although it is not worth anything, but the courtesy is light and friendship is important, and I hope Uncle Xue will not dislike it."

This Uncle Xue made me understand, she should be Wen Biru and someone else's daughter.

It's rare to get along so well in such an awkward relationship.

The most embarrassing person at this moment is me.

Today is Xue's father's birthday, but Xue Duyun didn't tell me, so I didn't prepare a dime as a gift.

I looked at Xue Duyun, he was smoking a cigarette on the sofa, he didn't talk much, and he knew that his expression was his father's birthday today.

Probably sensing my gaze, he looked at me and read my eyes, and he quietly took my hand as if to comfort me.

Father Xue had a bad impression of me, and I came empty-handed on a sensitive day like my birthday. fell into the eyes of Father Xue, and he didn't know what to think of me.

My face was hot, and I didn't have to look in the mirror to know that it was red.

"I'm sorry, I'm late."

Just as I was at a loss, a familiar voice sounded at the door.

I looked up, but it was Xu Yafei walking in.

He greeted Father Xue first and gave him a small gift.

"Happy birthday, uncle!"

In my embarrassment, he sat down, pushed another gift box towards me, and looked at me.

"Shen Yu, I could have come over earlier for the gift you asked me to bring, but there was a traffic jam on the road, so it was late, I'm sorry."

I looked at the beautifully packaged box on the table, and I didn't know what it contained, so I realized what he meant, and cast a grateful look at him.

I stood up and picked up the gift, but I couldn't say a word for a long time.

He said that he would not admit his daughter-in-law without his consent.

This sentence left a deep shadow in my heart, so that I don't dare to call him dad now, but it is even more rude to call him uncle.

After holding it for a long time, there was silence in the living room.

I took a deep breath and finally said, "Happy birthday to you!" ”

Father Xue glanced at me lightly, reached out to take it and put it aside, but he didn't embarrass me, and said in a very gentle manner, "You have a heart." ”

I restrained my nervousness and sat back down.

Father Xue asked about Xu Yafei's situation abroad, as if he had the loving face of an elder.

Yu Qian sat on the side, and also had a strong interest in his life abroad mentioned by Xu Yafei, and interjected a few words from time to time.

Listening to what Yu Qian said, she should be a well-informed girl.

Xue Duyun would also interject a few words, but he didn't say much, and most of the time he smoked silently.

In the entire living room, I was probably the only one who felt that the oxygen was thin, but fortunately, Xue Duyun's hand holding me never let go of me.

After talking for a while, Father Xue suddenly said to Xue Duyun, "Duyun, Qianqian graduated from a key university with a bachelor's degree in management, and is a rare talent, do you see if there is a suitable position for her in the company?" ”

It turned out that Father Xue and Wen Biru meant to let Yu Qian work at Yuntian International.

Before Xue Duyun could say anything, Yu Qian grabbed the white and said, "I don't want to go through the back door, Mom, Uncle Xue, I will apply for Yuntian International with my own ability." ”

Yu Qian glanced at Xue Duyun very confidently, and seemed to glance at me inadvertently.

I suddenly realized that Father Xue and Wen Biru probably didn't mean more than just asking Xue Duyun to give Yu Qian a job.

And Yu Qian's performance also made me realize that she is not a simple woman, she is much smarter than ordinary superficial women.

Soon it was time for dinner, and we sat down at the table as a group.

Wen Biru's craftsmanship is very good, but I am full of depression and have no appetite.

Xue Duyun probably saw that I didn't eat much, so he helped me pick up vegetables from time to time.

I wanted to remind him not to do that, I really didn't want to be the center of attention.

Yu Qian sat across from me and was looking at me with interest.

Compared with her calmness, my nervousness was even more ridiculous.

I wanted to put down my chopsticks and say I was full, but I didn't think it was rude.

Fortunately, Wen Biru suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention to her.

She looked at the sweet and sour pork ribs on the table and sighed, "Ah Li, he likes sweet and sour pork ribs the most." ”

Father Xue's face became a little solemn, put down his chopsticks, and chewed the food in his mouth slowly.

"Ah Li's birthday is also coming soon, let's make some for him then."

I never asked why Xue Li went in.

At the mention of Xue Li, the table was full of people as if they were in silent mourning, but Yu Qian was very unimpressed.

"Mom, he's just used to you, let him suffer a little to remember for a long time."

Wen Biru glared at her.

I immediately went to see the face of Father Xue, who has always loved Xue Li, but his expression did not change, and he seemed to feel that what Yu Qian said also had some truth.

When I came back to my senses, Father Xue's chopsticks moved to Xue Duyun's bowl.

Xue Duyun had an extra fillet in his bowl.

"I remember you were very fond of fish." When he withdrew his chopsticks, he said lightly.

Although Xue Duyun didn't say anything, I could see that he was still a little moved.

After eating, Father Xue took out a set of car keys and handed them to Yu Qian, and said with a smile, "Do you see the car in the yard?" That's a welcome gift for you. ”

I thought Yu Qian would refuse, but she naturally took the car keys.

"Thank you, Uncle Xue."

Father Xue smiled and said, "Go give it a try?" However, I heard that you just got your driver's license not long ago, Duyun, you accompanied Qianqian and commanded a little. ”

Xue Duyun stood up, glanced at me, and said lightly, "Okay." ”

Yu Qian happily threw a car key, and when she left, she looked at Xu Yafei and asked with a smile, "Do you want to be together?" ”

Xu Yafei looked at me, and I immediately said, "Go ahead, I'll help wash the dishes." ”

The three of them went out together, and I helped put the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen.

Wen Biru probably saw that I was about to wash, so she left me and left.

Her attitude was completely different from when Xue Duyun was there before, she didn't even bother to give me a look, let alone talk about a smile.

I put the water in and put the bowl in to wash.

Halfway through the wash, when I turned around, I was startled.

Father Xue stood at the door at some point, and was looking at me with a very stern look at me at the moment.
