Gu Yu was pulled into adulthood today, and together with Xia Jie, they were in the Rongzhou Airport terminal, checking on the people coming out.
Yesterday while having dinner at Emerald Blue Bay, Xia Jie mentioned that her mother was coming back and wanted to borrow a car to pick her up.
Gu Yu was eating the braised pork made by Xia Jie. Hearing this, he was not a stranger, so he directly said that I would go with you, and he happened to know the aunt.
Xia Jie didn't say anything, and gave Gu Yu another piece of Mao's braised pork, with an uncontrollable smile on her lips.
Looking at Gu Yu who was excited about eating, she felt that this was the day she wanted.
"My mother is out, and my aunt is here too. Mom, aunt, here~"
Xia Jie pulled Gu Yu's clothes with her left hand and raised her voice slightly.
"Hello, aunt, hello, aunt, I am Xia Jie's colleague. I heard that you are back, so I came here to pick you up."
Gu Yu said hello with a smile and took the initiative to take the luggage. Xia Jie had not seen her mother for a while and held her arm intimately.
Aunt Xia Jie looked at the young man in front of her. He was really nice. He was tall, sunny and handsome.
"Hello, hello, you look so handsome."
"Mom, he is Gu Yu."
Xia Jie's mother didn't pay much attention at first, thinking that someone from the branch was sent to pick them up.
Hearing the introduction whispered in his ear by his daughter, he reacted with a friendly smile on his face.
"Are you Officer Gu? Xia Jie always talks about you and takes good care of her in the police station. Thank you very much."
"This is all as it should be. Auntie, you have had a hard journey. Let's go back to the city first."
A few people chatted and walked to the parking lot. Gu Yu pushed two suitcases and led the way.
Xia Jie, on the other hand, held her mother and aunt on her left and right, chatting quietly, and chuckled from time to time.
"This is my first time riding in such a good car. Did I spend a lot of money?"
Gu Yu put the luggage in the trunk and got into the car. His aunt and Xia Jie's mother sat in the back seat.
The aunt looked at the interior of the car, felt the leather seats, and asked with emotion.
"A car is just a means of transportation. I bought it when I saw the right one." Gu Yu answered with a smile.
Through the rearview mirror, I saw Xia Jie's mother tugging at her aunt, giving her a glare and telling her not to ask.
"This car costs about one million to buy." Xia Jie answered for Gu Yu, with a little pride in her voice.
"One million? That's enough for a house." The aunt was a little stunned. She knew it was expensive, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive.
Xia Jie's mother was also stunned when she heard it. She originally thought it was only three or four hundred thousand.
After almost half an hour, Gu Yu drove back to the city. His aunt had an appointment with a friend and was going back to Rongzhou to attend a class reunion.
After saying goodbye to his aunt, Gu Yu noticed that Xia Jie's mother was staring at her aunt and her old classmates as they left talking and laughing, with envy in her eyes.
"Auntie, I heard from Xia Jie that you like to eat fish. The fish in this store are all caught from the river. They are very fresh."
Gu Yu drove Xia Jie and her daughter to a restaurant at the intersection of Liuyang River and Xiang River.
This restaurant specializes in Chinese-style decoration, a river-view terrace and delicious fish and river delicacies.
"Xiaoyu, I'm sorry to trouble you today. I told you to just eat whatever you want, but you still bother so much. Auntie should be thanking you for taking care of Xiaojie."
I don't know whether it was because I felt better after going out to play, or because I treated Gu Yu's senses very well.
Xia Jie's mother was very normal now, acting like a kind and easy-going elder. Xia Jie, who was sitting next to her, also felt relieved.
Asking Gu Yu to pick up her mother together was not only to introduce Gu Yu to her mother, but the most important thing was to promote the relationship between the two.
Ye Xin's appearance did give her a great sense of crisis, and her relationship with Gu Yu was not revealed. It felt like she was more than a friend, but not a lover.
"What did Auntie say? You have always been a family member of our Balihe Police Station. I have wanted to treat you to dinner for a long time, but there has never been a suitable opportunity.
Since Xiaojie entered Balihe, she has a serious attitude and excellent work. As a senior, I naturally have to take care of her. "
They were polite at the dinner table, and under Gu Yu's intentional compliments and lively atmosphere, Xia Jie's mother would laugh happily from time to time.
After lunch, Gu Yu sent Xia Jie and her daughter back to their home and had to rush to the next date. The weekend was really busy.
"Xiaojie, Gu Yu is a pretty good kid. He is humble, generous, sunny and handsome, and his family is in good condition.
The most important thing is that he is also very capable at work. How far have you gone with him? "
After returning home, Xia Jie helped her mother pack her luggage, and the two chatted in the master bedroom.
"Now we are colleagues and friends." Xia Jie did not want to say more.
"Can my colleague come with you to pick me up? And treat me to dinner? In the restaurant just now, you kept praising me for taking good care of and educating you. I don't think you are like an ordinary colleague."
Xia Jie's mother curled her lips and rolled her eyes. Since her daughter started working, she has become more and more alienated from her, and she doesn't talk to her mother about life-long events.
"Is there any other girl in your unit who has a crush on Gu Yu? Keep an eye on her so that all the cooked ducks don't fly away."
Seeing that her daughter was silent, Xia Jie's mother said worriedly.
"Mom, what the hell, didn't you say we haven't talked yet? Why does it sound like we are already together when it comes to your mouth?"
Xia Jie was a little dissatisfied and stopped arranging her clothes. She sat on the bed angrily, but she was actually thinking of Ye Xin.
"Xiaojie, Mom is someone who has been through this before. When a woman chases a man, you have to take the initiative.
We women are better off marrying well than they are good-looking. I have heard that there is a doctor Wu who wants to cause trouble for you. Thanks to Gu Yu for mediating it for you.
Xiaojie, Mom just hopes you can find a good man who can protect you. Mom doesn’t want you to be like me.
How have we been since your father passed away? Without a man in the family, there is no one to rely on. "
As Xia Jie's mother talked, she took it into herself and cried.
Xia Jie looked distressed and distressed. After her father passed away in recent years, she did have some problems in her life.
But it's not as pitiful as my mother said. As my father is a martyr, the government and the Public Security Bureau have always taken good care of their family.
My mother is even a little pushy at times and would trouble the bureau about everything.
Moreover, since her father passed away, her mother has always been in a negative and gloomy state, imposing her own ideas on Xia Jie in all aspects.
It was precisely because of this that Xia Jie had a fight with her mother last time, ran away from home, and moved to Emerald Blue Bay.
"Mom, I am also a policeman and have a job. I don't need to rely on others. When two people are together, they can distinguish between the inside and the outside, but they should be equal.
Brother Yu and I still need time to improve our understanding. If it is really suitable, please rest assured that I will seize my own happiness. "
Xia Jie adjusted her mood, caressed her mother's back and spoke softly, expressing her feelings at the same time.
Xia Jie's mother didn't say anything more, but there was still a slightly disapproving expression on her face.
"Also, Mom, don't keep calling the police station from now on. I'm just an ordinary trainee police officer who just graduated.
I should do all the things I should do, including field work, civil mediation, and reporting cases.
Others can bear the grievances I deserve, so why can’t I? I don’t want to be an outlier.”
Thinking of Dr. Wu, Xia Jie still spoke her mind to her mother.
