"Ancheng is so far away from Jiangcheng, why didn't you inform me in advance? Zhuxuan and I can pick you up in advance!"
Yucheng's excitement could be described as earth-shattering, but when the three of them were sitting face to face, his father carefully moved his hand to the water glass, and his mother stared at him uneasily.
"Your mother and I made a special trip to attend your aunt's sister's thank you banquet. Thinking that we haven't seen our son for many years, we invited you out for a supper. You don't have to feel any psychological burden. Your mother and I will finish the meal. Just eat and leave.”
Is there any mistake? Although Dad was a bit icy and irritable, he had never been as cautious as he was today.
"No, parents, why are you in such a hurry to leave right after you arrived?" Yu Cheng asked anxiously.
"Actually, we have no plans to come at all. Because of the distribution of the will, the relationship between your mother and your aunt is very tense. As for your eldest sister, it is her second marriage. She and her husband are currently unemployed at home. Such a relationship , it’s enough if people don’t show up. But your aunt called your mother again and again to complain that there were too few people watching the ceremony, so we came to your place. Oh! By the way, your mother, she I opened a duck shop with the betrothal gift money from my parents-in-law. Although the business is not prosperous, it is much better than when we worked together. I have been closed for an afternoon, and I have lost a lot. You have to give us this meal. Make it up."
My mother winked at me, and my father sounded obviously unhappy, as if it had nothing to do with my aunt and going out of business.
"Dad, Mom, are you saying something right?" There was a tremor in Yucheng's voice.
"No! No! My son, you are so unreasonable to say that! Your father and I came here for a dinner on an impromptu basis. It is estimated that one-third of the goods that we bought in this morning have not been sold. We will not sell them early tomorrow morning. I have to take it out and pour it out, but in my heart, it doesn’t feel good no matter how much I think about it.”
Mom couldn't help but raise her eyes and look at dad carefully. Dad's cloudy eyes were also staring at her closely.
"Old lady, it's rare for our family to get together, why do we always say such unpleasant things! Fill the bottle for our son quickly, and we old men, let's toast our son with tea instead of wine!"
Yucheng was so frightened that he quickly closed his eyes and lowered his head to look at his mother's face. There was a light in his mother's eyes that was dancing around. The father on the other side had a scary look in his eyes, as if he wanted to eat his mother.
"Dad, you are so great! It would be great if you called me and Zhuxuan earlier! You two are driving on the highway when you are old. I feel very upset when I hear that. Next time we will definitely drive to pick you up and take you with us. I hope you can enjoy your splendid life after retirement."
Yucheng's serious tone made his parents stop drinking tea for an instant. Why is no one talking? So quiet. In the suffocating silence, Yucheng looked at them seriously, but they looked back at Yucheng helplessly.
"Actually, you really don't have to be like this. You and your daughter-in-law are so busy, how can we bother you! I really want to see you today, so I agreed to let your aunt come over. Your dad and I are old, and we can You are already very touched when you happily finish this meal together."
Some sad sounds came out after a long time. Yucheng was stunned for a moment after hearing this.
"Mom, why are you so excited today! I am your second elder's son, and Zhuhyun is your second elder's daughter-in-law. This is an indisputable fact. I think that sentence is right. You raised me when I was young, and I will raise you. Old. The richer my life is now, the more guilty I feel towards you. Recently, I have been trying to find a reason to bring you home to live together for a period of time, so that you can enjoy a rich and leisurely old age life in advance."
Yucheng's eyes began to look a little crazy, which made his mother feel a little uneasy.
"Shouldn't you discuss this kind of thing with your daughter-in-law and in-laws first, and then tell us the result? Your mother and I are really flattered by this sudden statement!"
Why do you see distrust in your father's eyes? Yucheng suddenly felt even more uncomfortable.
"Your father and I appreciate your kindness. I think our table has almost finished eating. We have to go see Yuqi and the others later. My son-in-law has called several times to urge him, but now he is not everywhere. Are you emphasizing Operation CD? Why not, these dishes are quite expensive, so I packed them for Yuqi and the others. Speaking of which, we haven’t seen my granddaughter for a long time."
Mom's fingers gently touched Dad's shoulder, and Dad's body twitched, and then he slowly stood up.
"Dad, I know that you and your mother have been living together for too long, and it is difficult for you to integrate into the new living atmosphere. But at least tonight, you should stay at your own son's house tonight, okay?" Yu Cheng said anxiously.
"We really can't do it tonight. We really have to get to Yuqi as soon as possible. Look, these are all call records. I really didn't lie to you." As my mother said, she grabbed my father's shoulders hard and stared. It became two brass bells.
For a moment, the strange feeling that melted into his blood continued to rise, and Yu Cheng felt a little panicked in his heart.
"Dad! Yu Qi and Ke Mian will come back to Jiangcheng to see you during the holidays! You shouldn't take this time away from me. Besides, my mother has severe rheumatoid arthritis in her hands. When you go there, you won't be able to take care of the children. Won’t the task be passed on to you again?”
Dad and Mom bit their lips and looked at Yucheng with the same eyes. Yucheng almost saw himself nervous inside, and couldn't help but shrink back.
"Forget it! How about we pretend that we can't win over our son and go to our daughter-in-law's house. Didn't you say that chatting and shopping with your daughter-in-law are your only wishes? I think now is the best opportunity. . My daughter-in-law is quite busy. If you cook her a meal, if she gets addicted to it, she will remember to come to Jiangcheng to see us often."
"What I'm talking about is all nonsense, why are you talking nonsense in front of your son!"
Seeing Yu Cheng nodding stupidly, her mother swallowed nervously. Although he didn't know what his father meant by this, Yu Cheng instinctively felt that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law should be tense.
