As he got closer and closer to home, Shen Fu became a little nervous.
This is the place where he has lived for more than ten years. Although the place is not big, the feeling of meeting acquaintances at any time when walking on the street is something you cannot feel in a big city.
Just along the way, Shen Fu had already met more than a dozen people he knew, including former teachers, restaurant owners who often visited near the middle school, and middle school classmates who were on vacation after being admitted to graduate school. Most of them were after hearing the news. I came out specifically to see him.
Of course, it is more likely that you want to take a look at Emilia.
However, during the brief communication with them, many memories from the past came flooding back. I thought carefully about how many things had happened and changed a lot in the two years since I got Qiyu, but after all, before that The more than twenty years have occupied most of his current life. Many of his previous thoughts, emotions, and experiences are now precious memories that can never be returned to.
"Come on, come on, Xiao Fu is back."
Before they even arrived downstairs, they heard the familiar voice of the aunt upstairs. They had been lying on the balcony looking at the people waiting below. Suddenly, the excitement in the house could be heard downstairs. Shen Fu faced the crowd. The neighbors who came over smiled and said hello, then held Emilia's hand and looked at her, slowly walked upstairs with the gifts. He now understood why his parents were unwilling to move to the military district complex in the capital. Living in a small villa, relatives, friends, and acquaintances are all here. The relationship between people is sometimes irreplaceable.
The door of his home had already been opened, and a group of familiar faces were surrounding the door, including aunts, second aunts, aunts, and cousins of the same generation. Shen Fu found that although some people had smiles on their faces, there was a trace of sadness in their eyes. He seemed so unfamiliar and reserved. It wasn't until he saw himself in the floor-to-ceiling dressing mirror on the wall opposite the door that he suddenly realized that his upright body already carried a majesty that couldn't be ignored.
"Everyone is here."
Trying to put on a gentle smile, she pulled Emilia who was holding her hand and said, "You don't need to introduce me. This is my girlfriend. This is Betty. This is my sister, Shen Xin." .”
"Hello everyone, my name is Emilia."
Emilia took a step forward and held up the gift she had prepared. She felt that she had stopped in mid-air too hastily. She was even more nervous when facing these seven or eight people than when she was facing tens of thousands of people.
However, these relatives in front of them have long been amazed by Amelia's amazing temperament. Today she is wearing a light white summer women's dress with only light pink patterns on it. Her long silver-white hair is neatly combed on slightly pointed sides. After a while, she saw that the simple modern women's clothes gave her a cosplay dreamy feel, and she looked much more beautiful in real life than on TV.
"Why are you standing at the door?"
At this time, Shen's mother, who was tied to the village, came out, "Emilia, come in quickly, this is Shen Xin, this is your own home, just feel free to do whatever you want, the food will be ready soon."
Among these people, only Shen Xin has not seen it yet, but Shen's mother has heard about it from Shen Fu a long time ago. At this time, she felt a little distressed when she saw Shen Xin's thin body. If it hadn't been for the stain on her hands from cooking. Some of the oil smoke might be trying to bring in Shen Xin who was hiding behind.
Shen Xin walked in tremblingly, with her hands behind her back, and straightened her body like a soldier being reviewed by a general. Shen Fu looked at her and couldn't laugh or cry, and patted her head with helplessness and pity. She relaxed, then took off her shoes and walked into the house. Her father was also busy in the kitchen. Her parents always cooked the meals together.
"Let me help too."
Amelia took off her shoes and followed Shen's mother into the kitchen. She opened her mouth but still didn't say "Mom", but her face was flushed. After walking into the kitchen, she waved her hand gently, and the dull warmth It suddenly became cooler, and the oil smoke and other things disappeared in an instant. Mother Shen originally wanted to refuse her because of her exquisite clothes and dust-free temperament, but suddenly she realized that her daughter-in-law was not an ordinary person, so she didn't say anything more, but smiled. He asked her to help with some small favors, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started chatting quietly in the kitchen.
Shen Fu didn't care about that. After he walked in with Beatrice and Shen Xin, he realized that several of his former cousins had grown up. One of them, a little girl who was only six or seven years old, really widened her eyes. Looking at Beatrice's exquisite Gothic dress, she had never seen such a beautiful dress in her little experience. She immediately hugged her mother's clothes and cried for this.
The aunt suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She knew that the cute little girl in front of her was older than her ancestors, but she was reluctant to teach her daughter a lesson for such a thing, so she had to look at Shen Fu for help.
But before Shen Fu could speak, Beatrice curled her lips first and said, "You are so old and you cry all the time. Are you ashamed? I have been working for several years when I was your age. Humph, isn't it just a piece of clothing? .”
With a crisp snap of his fingers, like a witch performing a magic trick, Shen Fu, the youngest cousin, suddenly changed into another style of Gothic princess dress, and also combed the messy hair to one side, and suddenly Just like the ugly duckling that turned into a white swan, even her mother never thought that her daughter could be so cute.
Shen Fu looked here with a smile on his face. Beatrice's little episode subtly dispelled the small barriers between him and these relatives due to their status. The other older peers also had the courage to chat with him. Of course, Shen Fu Fu did not act like a general. The family was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious. Even Shen Xin started to interject a word or two from time to time, calling her aunt and uncle, and with the help of her thirteenth and fourth His appearance and timid personality were quickly accepted by everyone.
In fact, Shen Fu was a little worried at first. He was worried that some relatives would make excessive requests, and he would be disappointed if it was just a trivial matter. He was worried that his parents would be hit.
However, from this family dinner, it seems that this situation should not happen to at least the relatives with the best relationship. Shen Fu also proposed at the dinner table that he would hold an engagement banquet with Emilia in the next few days. There is no time for a real wedding, but after getting engaged, you can get the certificate first, and then organize a more lively wedding later when you have time. This model is very popular among young people nowadays.
Emilia was naturally stunned by this sudden "surprise". The expression on her face was no different from that of an ordinary girl except that it was cuter. It seems that no matter which world she is in, weddings have special features for girls. significance.
