Chapter 360: The Way of Motherhood
Chen Erdong, who was leisurely at home, was taken aback by Su Huizhen's sudden roll call, and he was wondering if his idea was wrong or Ye Xu's acting skills were too clumsy.
Even if it is an unplanned meeting, it cannot be empty-handed, and Chen Erdong was worried about choosing a meeting gift.
He only bought a scarf for Liu Min in his life, but he didn't give it away, and the current economic situation did not allow him to spend money on luxury goods.
After thinking about it, he went to Du Yu to make a gift box of the leftover Japanese products from before, and also prepared ten bags of 520 enzymes.
Standing at the door of the house, Chen Erdong pressed the doorbell, and at the moment the bell rang, he realized why he wanted to ring the doorbell when he went back to his home?
The strangeness had not subsided, the door had opened, and Ye Xu appeared in front of him.
Chen Erdong first looked at it, and then took a small step into the house, only to hear Ye Xu shout towards the bedroom: "Mom, he's here."
With the sound of small footsteps, Su Huizhen walked out of the bedroom, she and Chen Erdong glanced at each other, and laughed out loud.
"Xiao Chen, what are you doing here? This is your house, you are the master, I am a guest, and your big bag is like coming to my house as a guest." Looking at the things Chen Erdong was carrying in his hand and his face was innocent, there was a strong sense of conflict that was anti-customer-oriented.
Hearing her mother say this, Ye Xu also laughed out loud, the scene in front of her was indeed very similar to her boyfriend's first visit.
Chen Erdong doesn't have much experience in meeting his girlfriend's parents, and it has been ten years since he and Liu Min broke up unhappily, and getting along with Deng Xiangxiang is more like doing business with a businessman, so he will inevitably be a little nervous when facing Su Huizhen.
Fortunately, there was such a small episode, which suddenly made Chen Erdong relax a lot, he put his things on the coffee table, and replied with a smile: "I'm sorry aunt, I'm a little nervous."
Chen Erdong's reaction left a good impression on Su Huizhen, a man in his thirties is not greasy or slippery, if Chen Erdong shows a sophisticated appearance that he is used to not being surprised, it will make her worried.
"Ye Xu, didn't you cook something for your aunt?" It was close to dinner, but there was not a single fume in the room.
"My mother scolded me, yesterday she didn't know it was your house, she made a meal for me to eat, she said that today you come back, if she cooks again, it will really be the host and the guest." Ye Xu explained.
"Auntie, you are too outward, Ye Xu and I usually cook and eat at home." Chen Erdong didn't want to be too distant, so he hurriedly played a round.
"That's the two of you, I'm different again, you're the master's house, you have the final say, do you eat at your house, or do I invite you out to eat?" Su Huizhen pays attention to the proportionality of the language, and will never say that she eats at home, and must add your word.
Her attitude is very clear, before her daughter and Chen Erdong have settled, there must be a boundary, at least she, as a mother, can't care about anything because of love like her daughter.
"Where can you have a treat? Even if you go out to eat, I invite you, otherwise aunt, just eat at home, there are ingredients in the refrigerator, Ye Xu's craftsmanship is also very good, eat clean and comfortable at home." Chen Erdong proposed.
"Okay, whatever you want, I won't mix, Xiaoxu, you can cook." Su Huizhen glanced at her.
Ye Xu knew that she was going to talk to Chen Erdong alone, so she immediately got up and went to the kitchen.
Chen Erdong made a cup of white tea for Su Huizhen, and the tea leaves at his home were all given by Chen Mowen, Chen Mowen didn't want him to drink drinks all the time, so he would choose some good tea and give it to him regularly.
Su Huizhen took a shallow sip, she doesn't often drink white tea, but her entrance is light and sweet, and her chest is slightly hot, and she can taste this is a high-grade tea.
Chen Erdong sat on the side, wanting to ask how it tasted, but he felt that this question was too speechless, so he looked at Su Huizhen silently, waiting for her to speak.
"Xiao Chen, the two of you live together, I don't object, but you should let her talk to the family." Su Huizhen put down the teacup and began to ask questions.
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry I didn't think it through." Chen Erdong did not defend or shirk, this attitude satisfied Su Huizhen.
In fact, Ye Xu had already told her all the causes and consequences last night, and she also had a general understanding of Chen Erdong.
Not long after, a fragrance slipped from the kitchen into the living room, Chen Erdong sniffed with his nose, and said, "Auntie, Ye Xu taught Ye Xu to cook, right?"
"Oh, I didn't teach me much, when I was a child, she loved to watch me cook, and sometimes when I was busy with her dad, she would learn to cook by herself." Speaking of this, Su Huizhen's eyes were full of maternal love.
But her loving gaze instantly turned into guilt, and Su Huizhen continued: "It's also difficult for her, she was still so young at the time, she had to cook by herself, and now that I think about it, I can't help her."
"Don't think about my aunt so much, Ye Xu is great, I'm so old, I can't cook at all, she is much better than me." Chen Erdong said embarrassedly.
"Then you said you cook together at home?" Su Huizhen deliberately raised the tone.
"Haha, I'm just a handicap, under her tutelage, I'm already a qualified second chef." Chen Erdong was not ashamed of his words, but he also attracted Su Huizhen to be happy with him.
At lunchtime, Ye Xu kept quietly observing her mother and boyfriend, and saw that they communicated freely, and finally let go of the heart that had been hanging.
After eating, Su Huizhen got up and walked to the bedroom, she said she was leaving.
"Auntie, stay a few more days, Ye Xu is rare to accompany you." Chen Erdong said.
"I just came to see her, and seeing how good you are now, I'll go back." Su Huizhen replied.
Chen Erdong was inconvenient to say more, and looked at Ye Xu, wanting to see what she said.
Ye Xu didn't keep Su Huizhen's intentions, she hoped that her mother could go back, and the three of them were in the same room, but they still felt uncomfortable.
"Xiao Chen, come in." Su Huizhen stood at the door of the bedroom and said suddenly.
Chen Erdong didn't know what he meant, hesitated for a moment, and walked over.
Su Huizhen gently opened the door, took out her mobile phone, and said to Chen Erdong, "I'll add you a WeChat, in case something happens, you can still find someone."
Chen Erdong hurriedly took out his mobile phone, scanned her business card, and as soon as he passed, he received a transfer of 20,000 yuan from Su Huizhen.
"Auntie, you, what are you doing here?" Chen Erdong was shocked.
"I'm just such a daughter, she lives in your house now, this money is regarded as rent, young people live together, it is inevitable to bump and bump, if you two quarrel, I hope you can treat her well."
Su Huizhen said very vaguely, but the meaning of the words was instantly understood by Chen Erdong, and a wave of emotion and self-blame suddenly came to her heart.
He was moved by Su Huizhen's mother's love for her daughter, but at the same time, he blamed himself for not being able to make the other party completely reassure himself.
However, he couldn't accept this money anyway, so he immediately ordered it back, and said pleadingly:
"Auntie, I can fully understand your intentions, although I don't have any skills, I will never use the house to embarrass Ye Xu, please rest assured, if I accept this money, then I am really not a thing."
Seeing Chen Erdong's sincere face, Su Huizhen, who already had a good impression of him, no longer insisted, she nodded with satisfaction and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, aunt believes in you."
