Chapter 354: Confession
Lin Jianshe is not as incompetent as Zhang's mother thinks, and the nature of his work is destined to make him not as beautiful in front of people as Xu Zhenhua.
But no one can underestimate his ability and energy.
No, after he made two phone calls, he booked the family recognition banquet at the Capital Hotel.
When he called Zhang's house, Zhang's mother was surprised for a while when she heard that dinner was arranged in the Capital Hotel, and then said to the old man with a smile: "Or do you have a vision, this uncle is really good, this hotel can be fixed, and I don't know what relationship he has found?" ”
The old man shook his head, "You underestimate him, he is no worse than his brother-in-law." ”
The old lady was puzzled, "He? What do you say? The old lady said unhappily: "At that time, you didn't agree to come, where are you listening to the letter now?" I know that I know? Don't mess with that mystery, okay? ”
"I've heard about it, too, and you ordinary people don't need to know about it."
The old man's words made the old lady angry enough, "Okay, I don't need to know, I know, this family matter is good for my girl, and I don't ask for anything else," he said and sighed, "This girl is older, she has an outside heart, and it's not easy for me to speak as a mother, she wants to, then let's end it, and it's her own business to live better than bad in the future." ”
Having said that, as soon as the old lady thought of having dinner at the Capital Hotel in the evening, she first called a few children one by one, and couldn't help but tell them not to go late, and repeatedly emphasized that they should dress better, "Don't let your sister lose face" The words said several times.
Leaving the phone, he urged the old man, "Go try the new clothes you made a few days ago......"
The old man got up and walked out on crutches, unwilling to listen to the old woman's chatter, and only went to dinner in the evening to recognize his relatives, and now it is only in the morning, and I don't know what she is busy with, and the clothes have been made for more than a month, and he has been on his upper body three or four times, what else to try?
The old woman was obviously nervous.
"Hey, you old man, where are you going? It's so hot outside......" the old lady shouted at the old man's back.
The old man didn't look back, he walked quickly, "I'll go to play chess with Lao Wang." ”
"This old man, my leg doesn't hurt anymore!" The old lady chattered again, then went back to the house to rummage through the cabinets, turned the clothes out, and couldn't help but feel annoyed, "These clothes are not decent, I knew that I should have made a new one a few days ago." He scolded the youngest daughter again, "If this child is not in a hurry to get the certificate, is he in such a hurry to meet their family?" I don't even know what to wear. ”
Zhang Yongqing happened to come back from outside, and the corners of her mouth twitched when she heard this, the old lady has loved beauty since she was young, and she has to make a few clothes every year, but she made it herself in this cabinet, or she and her sister bought it, so she didn't have any clothes!
"Mom, I'll pick one for you!" She picked up a dark purple short-sleeved cheongsam, "How about this?" Mom, you are absolutely beautiful in dressing, people look at it, yo, this old lady is really stylish! ”
The old lady's face was full of praise, but her mouth muttered, "It's useless for you to praise me, I'm just not very satisfied with your family affair." ”
She said and picked up the clothes and measured them for a long time, "I'll try it, can you show me if it looks good?" She muttered in a low voice, "The first time I meet my in-laws, I have to suppress her in momentum, otherwise, if you marry, I am afraid that my mother-in-law in the countryside will make you angry!" ”
Zhang Yongqing listened to her mother's words, her eyes were wet coldly, she hurriedly lowered her head and blinked, forced her tears back, took a deep breath before raising her head and showing a smile, "Mom, you are also very imposing if you don't get dressed." Also, Jianjian's mother is different from the old ladies from the countryside you have seen, Mom, you don't have to be afraid that she will make me angry, you girl, who can be angry? You say, don't you? ”
The old lady pursed her lips and said it was quite domineering, but when she looked at the person surnamed Lin, she forgot that she was a mother, forget it, her daughter also knew that she felt sorry for her, so she still didn't care too much.
It may be that her mentality has changed, or it may be that no matter what her attitude is, her daughter is going to marry Lin Jianjian, her attitude is better, and it can also make her son-in-law look at her face and treat her daughter better in the future.
Anyway, no matter what the reason, when she arrived at the hotel in the evening and met her in-laws, her attitude was extremely modest and affectionate.
And the Lin family not only gave 800 yuan, but also a complete set of gold ornaments and a mutton fat jade bracelet, all of which Lin Tong went to the dim sum shop to take the dividends of these two months, and pulled his mother to buy it for his new daughter-in-law.
Lin Tong's idea is very simple, that is, he doesn't want his mother to feel inferior in front of her in-laws.
The Lin family's engagement gifts are also considered generous, Zhang's mother is very satisfied, the more grand the Lin family, which shows that they are more satisfied with their daughter.
The two sides agreed that the two children would receive the certificates the next day, and then they would first hold a wedding in the capital attended by the woman's family and Lin Jianjian's colleagues, and then go back to their hometown to hold another wedding during the Chinese New Year.
Today's recognition banquet is extremely smooth, returning from the hotel to the residence, Xu Xiaowan said with a smile: "I didn't expect my in-laws to be so reasonable, the third child, you have found a good daughter-in-law, a good father-in-law, you have to be filial to them in the future." ”
Xu Xiaowan, who is so kind and thinks about others everywhere, how can she not let her children respect her!
Lin Jianshe was also a little surprised, Zhang Yongqing's parents surprised him today, they were very enthusiastic, and they were extremely affectionate. Even the old man, who has never liked to talk, is full of smiles, not to mention the children of the Zhang family.
Lin Tong and the third brother glanced at each other and said with a smile: "Yes, the Zhang family is quite reasonable......
When Zhang's mother left, she deliberately chatted with Lin Tong for a long time, but Lin Tong didn't tell her mother.
Zhang's mother has performed well today, it seems that she is very sincere, she thinks about her daughter and puts forward some conditions, Lin Tong can fully understand.
"I'll just say that you give up the house, what if you get married yourself?" She spread her hands, "Aunt Zhang told me today, your one-bedroom apartment is too small, can you apply for a two-bedroom apartment with the unit." ”
Lin Jianshe really didn't know about this, and his good mood just now immediately discounted, and he frowned and said unhappily: "Why didn't she tell me about this directly?" ”
"Don't frown and be unhappy, if you want my girl to get married, I will also mention all the conditions that should be mentioned, all for the sake of my own children, why can't you think about it so much?"
Lin Tong said to him: "I don't think it's possible for you to divide the room for a while, otherwise, or what I said yesterday, I'll lend you some first, as long as this store opens, not to mention a two-bedroom apartment, even a small villa." ”
She raised her eyebrows, "Tomorrow, when you go to get the certificate, let's just discuss this matter!" ”
