In the kitchen, his wife Yang Chengbi is cooking in full swing.

Sitting in the living room watching the news, Cao Fengyao, who had been in a cold state, took out his sleeves and looked at his watch, the time was already half past seven in the evening.

"Feng Yao, aren't you ready? Don't forget, Xiao Ai will bring her boyfriend back today! ”

Compared with the joy in the kitchen, the atmosphere in the living room across the wall is much colder, and when he heard the shouts from his wife, Cao Fengyao snorted and said angrily towards the kitchen:

"I know, oops, what are we going to do for this kind of thing? I don't say that Qingqing is okay, do I still have to put on a smiling face to greet my future uncle? Are you kidding! When that kid comes, let him sit for a while and leave, it's better for him to be more interesting and know that he's out! ”

Yang Chengbi, who was wearing an apron, showed his head from the kitchen door, and persuaded her husband with a smile:

"Then wouldn't it be nice for you to just be a friend of Xiao Ai as a guest, no matter what, this He Gongzi has known Xiao Ai since high school, and the friendship between classmates has been seven or eight years, and when Ai Qing was bullied online, others also posted to prove it, and finally called on Hong Kong teachers and students to work together to find the mastermind who framed Ai Qing, by the way, what is that person's name?"

Yang Chengbi deliberately threw out a topic for her husband to pick up, but Cao Fengyao was not angry:

"Sun Qianzhi, I've seen that kid a few times in school, hmph, what a brute."

Regarding the mastermind behind the cyberbullying, He Panshan handled it very secretively, so except for a few parties, almost no one knew that this matter was done by He Yuanchong, and after Cao Aiqing got the two million, there will be land construction projects waiting for her in the future, as long as He Tianran admits this, the girl is not afraid that He Panshan will paint cakes for herself, so after weighing the pros and cons, she did not explain the truth to her parents, and the two million were privately handed over by Sun Qianzhi in the name of compensation.

At first, the Cao family and his wife were very surprised to see that the other party would compensate so much money, but this matter was discussed by the Sun family's parents in person, and they showed full sincerity, so they did not continue to be suspicious, only thinking that the other party should also be a big family, and they didn't want things to continue to make trouble.

Although Cao Aiqing hated He Tianran at the beginning, as the ins and outs of the whole thing gradually became clear, she also understood He Tianran's situation in the He family in her previous life, not to mention that the two were still in love, so in the end, the result of this matter was much more realistic.

But fortunately, there is this reality, otherwise Cao Aiqing would have told the truth of this matter, as far as the Cao family husband and wife are concerned, they will definitely not let Cao Aiqing and He Tianran continue to communicate.

"By the way, you see that you also remember well, so others have also helped Xiao Ai, don't put on a stinky face when you come."

"But Qingqing told me in person, they can't be together!"

Cao Fengyao was angry, Yang Chengbi was amused by him, and deliberately choked him when he saw this:

"When I wasn't with you before, I said I wouldn't marry you."

Cao Fengyao stood up and wanted to have a seizure, but in the face of his wife's gaze, he could only pace back and forth, arguing:

"Can it be the same? Can this be the same?! What was that called before...... That's called ...... It's called being affectionate, stopping at courtesy, just the things that He Tianran did to Qingqing, he was essentially a playboy, was it the same nature as me at that time? No! Incomparable, you know! ”

"You, when did I compare you to other people's children? I mean, Xiao Ai and I, which girl wouldn't talk back? Co-author: If she pointed to others in front of your father, Xiaohe and said that he would not marry, wouldn't you be more anxious? Okay, okay, I made chicken soup today, can you taste it and see how it tastes......"

Yang Chengbi said as he walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup and brought it to Cao Fengyao to comfort:

"Wait a while, don't embarrass others, let's see what the children say first, Xiao Ai is 21 years old, and everyone of the same age has graduated from college, is it possible that you really think that when she wants to get married, the sky suddenly falls to the ready-made, right?"

Cao Fengyao was depressed, and he wanted to put on a straight face, but when he saw the results of his wife's hard work, he would never refuse, but this fresh soup was delicious, which meant that he had to accept his wife's proposal for the time being.

"When the meeting arrives, don't turn your elbows out."

The man struggled.

The virtuous woman smiled: "That will, Xiao Ai is also my daughter." ”

"Hmm...... Tsk, so good ......."

"Is it delicious, or will you know how to talk well?"

“…… It's delicious, it's delicious, I mean the soup is delicious. ”

"Oh, weird."

Ding Dong –

At this time, the doorbell rang, saying Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

Cao Fengyao put down the bowl, Yang Chengbi untied his apron, his face was clearly a little panicked, but he complained: "This girl, it's not that she doesn't have the key to the house, why did she still ring the doorbell......"

"She knows that she is a thief."

Cao Fengyao replied, his wife walked into the kitchen and was about to put the food on a plate and bring it to the living room, the man walked to the door, and did not open the door in a hurry, but quietly waited for the doorbell to ring for the second time, and then he regained his previous calm demeanor and opened the door.

"Dad~"

"Hello Professor Cao."

Outside the door, the two young people who came into view shouted one after another, his daughter Ai Qing lowered her head slightly to observe herself, He Tianran, this kid grinned widely, pretending to be hearty, but the red ears had betrayed the tension in his heart.

Cao Fengyao said in a deep voice: "Are you back?" ”

Cao Aiqing nodded cautiously: "Well......"

"Alone?"

“……”

The old father stared at his daughter, who was a little at a loss, not to mention how Cao Aiqing and the others would introduce He Tianran, at least at this moment, He Tianran's grin stiffened on his face, and his heart was hit by 10,000 critical blows.

And just when he was tormented in his heart, his right arm was suddenly gently pulled up, and he saw Cao Aiqing, who was usually shy and cowardly in his feelings, soft and weak, but at this moment his face was glowing, and he said in one breath:

"Daddy...... This is He Tianran, you know, he used to be my classmate...... Right now...... He...... He's a boyfriend. ”

He Tianran only felt that an electric current ran from the Tianling cover to the heart of the foot board, and then from the heart of the foot board back to the Tianling cover, this kind of recognition from his lover turned into a warm thing in his heart, whether it was confidence or self-confidence, in short, for the current He Tianran, Cao Fengyao, who was in front of him and Cao Aiqing, had no sense of oppression at all, and the whole person instantly felt invincible, okay!

"I don't know what you like about this kid, come in, come in...... Alas~"

Cao Fengyao was also helpless, although Cao Aiqing had already told them the news of being with He Tianran earlier, but seeing it with his own eyes, he was still angry.

Giving up a position in front of the door, the girl happily ran into the house, He Tianran still carried some gifts in his hand, two large bags, he entered the door and asked solemnly:

"Professor Cao, this is some tea, wine, fruit and tonic that I bought for you and my aunt, where do you think I put it ......?"

Cao Fengyao didn't answer, and handed a look under the low table in front of the TV in the living room, He Tianran understood, the two men walked to the living room, and Cao Aiqing, who came in first, was called in by Yang Chengbi in the kitchen to help, and for a while, only the two of them were left on the scene......

He Tianran was putting things under the low table, Cao Fengyao walked to the opposite end and sat down and watched him busy, He Tianran was embarrassed, and began to take the initiative to find a topic, he took out two boxes of tea from the bag, and said:

"Professor Cao, the last time we met, I found that you like tea, so I bought a little tea, you see, you bought the right one."

Cao Fengyao caught his eyes, it was a box of Qimen black tea and a box of Taiping Monkey Kui, and he said lightly:

"Tea is a simple thing, and sooner or later you have to drink it in your mouth, as long as you are willing to spend money, you have to be right."

These two boxes of tea are He Panshan let He Tianran bring from home, the taste is definitely good, although his future father-in-law's reaction is a little lighter, but since he likes to drink tea, he is a university professor, the leader of the cultural relics museum, and the archaeological community, he should not worry about tea to eat, so He Tianran took out a second thing.

"You're right, and this purple clay pot, you've seen it."

He Tianran took out a hand-packaged purple sand teapot from another bag, Cao Fengyao opened the package and looked at it carefully, this pot may not be as expensive as the two boxes of tea in front, but He Tianran on the side explained:

"This is Ai Qing picked for you, the pot is the graduation work of the students of the Academy of Fine Arts next door to our school, it's not the graduation season recently, there are a lot of exhibitions in the Academy of Fine Arts, I went to see it with Ai Qing last week, she liked this at a glance, and said that she would send it to you when she went home this time."

Cao Fengyao glanced at this kid, he must have liked the pot his daughter picked, but the person in front of him......

Tut.

"Your two boxes of tea are expensive, young people don't spend money indiscriminately, I like the teapot very much, but these gifts you gave, your aunt and I actually don't lack it."

Cao Fengyao nodded, He Tianran nodded and said:

"Understand, some fruit supplements are not worth much, I am not afraid of you laughing when I say it, this tea is what I brought from home, the pot, no matter how good it is, it is a student work after all, it was originally a price of more than two thousand, but your daughter bargained too hard, and finally won eight hundred, at first the price was too low, the classmate didn't want to sell it, but it was also a purple clay pot, but Ai Qing said that his father was a person who likes tea, and this pot can be a good place, and the classmate gradually loosened his mouth, although the price went down, But Ai Qing's filial piety to you is not discounted at all. ”

"Then you're just watching Ai Qing bargain there?" Cao Fengyao asked rhetorically.

"How can I be, I also helped cut it! But your daughter has her own set of theories and talents in this regard, I didn't keep up with her rhythm of bargaining, I dragged my feet and was glared at by her, and finally I could only watch dryly......"

Although the image of Brother Natural is poor in the eyes of the future father-in-law, he has always been able to focus on the key points in his speech, and his ability to please people has always been okay, as soon as he said this witty remark, even Cao Fengyao, who was ignoring himself, had been nervous, and smiled wordlessly but empathetically.

He Tianran looked around left and right, Cao Aiqing's home decoration is the new Chinese decoration style, the area of two hundred square meters is enough for this happy family of three to live in harmony, the location of the community is also very good, located in the south of the city center, although the traffic jam is serious, but the public facilities and traffic around here are still very convenient.

"By the way, Professor Cao......"

He Tianran retracted his gaze and asked:

"I heard Ai Qing say that she had an orange cat named 'Bodhisattva' since she was a child, why didn't she see it?"

At the mention of this, Cao Fengyao's eyes darkened, and he said:

"Dead ......"

"Huh?"

The old man sighed and corrected his conclusion:

"I can't say it's dead, but you also said it, this cat was raised by Ai Qing since she was a child, and now she is slim, but what about the cat, she is already dying, and the year before last year or last year, I estimated that my life was coming, so I slipped out of the door early one morning and never came back......"

"That's right...... I'm sorry. ”

He Tianran apologized for not knowing.

About this cat, the reason why He Tianran can remember it is because the name is very special, and secondly, Cao Aiqing often mentions it to himself in high school and freshman year, but in recent years, this situation is almost gone, and it is not easy to say this kind of slightly sad thing.

"It's time to eat—"

At this time, a call made He Tianran look sideways, and a demure and beautiful woman walked out of the kitchen, followed by Cao Aiqing, they all held hot dishes in their hands, and when they were properly placed, the beautiful woman wiped her hands with the apron on the table, and walked over with a smile. Enthusiastically:

"You're Xiao He, He Tianran, right? Sure enough, it's a talent. ”

She stretched out her hand, her eyes carefully examining the object of her daughter's affection in front of her.

He Tianran hurriedly shook hands with this elder very nervously.

"Auntie, you have won the award, the first time we met was really scared, I brought you some skin care products and cosmetics, I ......"

He was about to turn around and go to the bag to take out the gift, but his hand was grabbed by the other party, only to hear Yang Chengbi laugh:

"Oh, don't be in a hurry, look at your kid who is panicking, things can't run there, I know that Xiao Ai is going to bring you back today, I specially made a table of dishes, let's eat first, don't let the dishes be cold."

"Okay, okay." He Tianran was busy and agreed.

"By the way, natural, you know how to cook, right?" Suddenly, Yang Chengbi asked coldly.

He didn't know why, but he answered honestly:

"I will, it's okay to cook some home-cooked food."

Yang Chengbi smiled:

"Then you are much better than Ai Qing and his father, when he was your age, he would cook a few noodles, and he hadn't bought the vegetables a few times, this person who doesn't cook, it is impossible to know the hard work of cooking, and you must eat more later."

"Ahem...... Hum. ”

Cao Fengyao snorted coldly and walked past them, not far from the dinner table, Cao Aiqing endured the corners of her mouth that wanted to be upturned, and greeted her father to the main seat, and she herself sat next to her father, and then, He Tianran was also pulled onto the dinner table by Yang Chengbi and sat opposite his girlfriend.

"What if Xiao He said he couldn't cook?"

Cao Fengyao took the meal that his daughter brought to him, and asked his wife seemingly casually.

"Then I'll say that he and you are both half a catty and eight taels."

The old couple's bickering really added a touch of joy to the tense atmosphere, He Tianran glanced at Cao Aiqing opposite, he really wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh......
