Chapter 253: A Warm Welcome

In fact, before this, Xu Yi had asked me to come to Xu's house as a guest, and he told me more than once that Uncle Xu and Uncle Xu wanted to meet me, but because of time problems, I never came.

I didn't know what to say when I saw them later, whether to say hello as I did when I was a child, or just to laugh.

But even if I was uneasy in my heart, I still had to come, and when Xu Yi got out of the car, he walked to my side and opened the door on my side.

"Xiao Ci, it's already here, what are you thinking, don't hurry down, otherwise my parents will really be in a hurry later."

Hearing this, I immediately reacted, smiled apologetically at Xu Yi, and didn't forget to tease, "I was thinking about things just now, and I suddenly forgot about it, so you don't have to be so fierce to me." ”

"Am I doing this to you?" Xu Yi's face was full of incredulity, and it was obviously difficult to accept what I had just said to him, "I'm just reminding you that it's okay or not, your kung fu to wronging people is really getting higher and higher." ”

There was someone by my side and laughing with me, and the original tense atmosphere was not so oppressive, and I was even able to smile.

Just like this, through the front hall, Xu Yi and I came to the gate of his house, and we saw two people standing there from a distance, they kept looking at each other, they seemed to be very anxious, who would it be if it wasn't Xu Yi's parents?

When we got closer, I think my judgment just now was indeed correct, it was Xu Yi's parents who stood at the door to greet us, over the years, they have obviously changed a lot compared to before, but the smile in the face of me has never changed.

In my memory, Aunt Xu should have a full head of hair, and there was no wrinkle at the corners of her eyes when she smiled, but now her hair was mixed with a little gray hair.

When I walked up to them, I looked at them with a smile as much as I could, bowed slightly to them, and said hello.

"Uncle Xu, Aunt Xu, it's been a long time." I laughed, and now it didn't seem so difficult, and I don't know what I was bothering about.

But compared to my smile, the smiles on the faces of Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu were obviously brighter, and the eyes that looked at me were full of kindness.

"Are you really a little resignation, I haven't seen you for so many years, I didn't expect to grow so big, I wanted Xu Yi to bring you back as a guest, but I heard that you haven't had time, and today is finally here!"

Aunt Xu grabbed me with one hand, she looked at me carefully, the smile on the corner of her mouth could not be hidden, and she always maintained an upward trend.

"I'm really sorry Aunt Xu, what Xu Yi said is true, my usual work is too busy, if I have time, I will definitely come to see you."

In the face of the enthusiasm of the Xu family, I couldn't resist at all, this is what I have always hoped for, the warmth of home.

And it's not a fake thing, I can see very clearly that their enthusiasm for me is genuine, so for a while I was a little infected by this atmosphere.

But when Aunt Xu heard me apologize to her, she had a sad expression on her face, and she hurriedly shook her head at me, as if she had to ask me to take back what I had just said.

"Needless to say, it's not a big deal, and besides, I understand that you young people are busy with work. I'm so happy that you're here now, and the two of us are still meeting each other! ”

For a while, I felt that Aunt Xu was like my own mother than my own mother, and she would not complain too much about what I did, but would think about it for me.

"Aunt Xu is right, I will definitely come to see you more in the future!"

I couldn't help but nod to Aunt Xu, and got her doting smile, she reached out and gently touched my forehead, "It's already so big, why are you still a stupid girl?" ”

"When you were young, you always chased after me, shouting that I was called Mother Xu, and now that you have grown up, you are also rusty......"

I remember what Aunt Xu said at this time, there was indeed a period of time when I was a child, and I always liked to follow her every inch, probably because I didn't get the love I deserved from my mother.

But now when Aunt Xu mentions these things, I can't help blushing a little, and hurriedly lowered my head, but I heard Uncle Xu complaining to Aunt Xu on the other side.

"I said you, since you all know that Chen Ci is so old, why do you still laugh at these things when you were a child, you see that Chen Ci is about to be embarrassed, is it easy for people to come once?"

"Then am I also out of good intentions, I haven't seen her for so long, of course I'm thinking about it in my heart!"

"Anyway, don't talk about this kind of thing in the future, young people don't eat you now!"

Uncle Xu sneered at Aunt Xu's approach, and didn't seem to agree at all, and Aunt Xu was so angry that she didn't know what to say.

I looked at Xu Yi beside me, and he also turned to me, with a helpless look on his face, it was obvious that he had been accustomed to this kind of scene for a long time, and he was not a little surprised.

"Okay Mom and Dad, today Chen Ci didn't look at the two of you arguing, I have to quarrel for a while, and after she leaves, we will continue, okay?"

Xu Yi opened his mouth to persuade him, but there was a hint of agitation in his words, which made me a little worried, but who knew that he suddenly changed his words next.

"Now that Xiao Ci and I are dying of hunger, are you sure you won't invite us into the house for a bite to eat?"

While speaking, Xu Yi touched his stomach with a face full of grievances, as if he was really hungry, and his parents saw this, of course, it was not good to quarrel anymore.

Aunt Xu glanced at Uncle Xu beside her with great indignation, and then turned her eyes to me with a kind smile.

"Let's go a little way, don't worry about people like you Uncle Xu, today my aunt made you a lot of delicious things, you must eat more, see how thin you are now!"

Hearing Aunt Xu say this, I began to cry and laugh, I think Aunt Xu shouldn't know that I was fat to 200 pounds before, otherwise she wouldn't think I was so thin now.

But after all, those things are already in the past, and there is no need to mention them now, and I don't think there is really any need to mention them, otherwise the memories will be like a flood bursting the embankment, and they will be out of control.

Following Aunt Xu's guidance, we soon came to the dining room and sat down, as she said, the table was full of all kinds of delicious food, many of which I liked to eat when I was a child, which shows that they really care.

And Aunt Xu was even more like a child, she raised her head towards me, and the expression on her face seemed to be a little ostentatious, "What a little resignation, the dishes I make on this table should be what you like to eat!" ”

Aunt Xu pulled me to sit down beside her, looking at the dishes on the table, I couldn't help nodding, "Aunt Xu, there are a lot of dishes I liked to eat when I was a child, it's been so long, you still remember, it's really hard for you." ”

"What's so hard to do isn't there to be embarrassed." Aunt Xu waved her hand at me, looking like she didn't care, "As long as you are sure that you like to eat, then it is worth it for Aunt Xu to make these things!" ”

As she spoke, she took the dish from her plate into my bowl.

To be honest, in the face of so many dishes, of course I can't wait, but Uncle Xu hasn't started yet, so if I eat it first, wouldn't it be a little rude?

Thinking of this, I raised my head to look at Uncle Xu, who originally wanted to pick up the vegetables, but when he saw my gaze, he hesitated slightly, but soon understood what was going on.

"Xiao Ci, eat more if you want to eat, you are a guest here today, you don't have to be so restrained with us, we are all a family!"

Aunt Xu didn't even let Uncle Xu go, she didn't seem to take him seriously at all, and after a soft snort, she put a lot of vegetables into my bowl.

"Hurry up and eat, Xiaoci, after a day of work, I guess I'm hungry, don't care about you Uncle Xu, I can eat you if I want, there are not so many rules in this family."

While listening to Aunt Xu's words, Xu Yi, who was sitting next to me, also stretched out his elbow and touched me gently, and he winked at me and made a grimace.

"It's just Xiao Ci, what are you waiting for, if you don't hurry up and eat, I'm going to eat all these things!"

"You kid, usually your mother cooks you so many delicious foods at home, and I haven't seen you eat much, why do you want to rob her as soon as you quit today?"

Before I could open my mouth to refute Xu Yi, Uncle Xu on the side couldn't stand it anymore, stretched out his hand and knocked Xu Yi's chopsticks, and reprimanded him.

When I heard Uncle Xu's reprimand for Xu Yi, I felt a trace of pleasure in my heart, thinking that many days had been spent like this when I was a child.

Aunt Xu on the side looked at me and Xu Yi with a nostalgic look, and couldn't help but sigh and shake her head gently.

"Now that I think about it, it was a long time ago, when you two were just over my knees, but now, you're all grown up. Let me and you Uncle Xu also grow old......"

When I heard Aunt Xu say this, the bitterness was self-evident, and it made me feel a little emotional, and I couldn't help but stretch out a hand and gently hold Aunt Xu

My hands, which were once soft and fair, were now covered with calluses and even a little rough, and I suddenly wanted to burst into tears, but I still kept my emotions.

"Aunt Xu, it's nothing, everyone will grow old, and Xu Yi and I are grown up now, so we should protect you, right?"

Maybe my words had an effect, and when Aunt Xu heard me say this, a smile suddenly appeared on her face that was still sad.

"Yes, Aunt Xu's resignation has grown up, and you will protect us in the future, not us......
