The next day, Zhang Yuanqing and Yang Xu split up.
Yang Xu took Yin Tao home, and Zhang Yuanqing drove to pick up Yang Xu's parents. Before going, I prepared some specialties and bought some health products, tobacco and alcohol.
There is a custom in Changxi County that when a son-in-law comes to visit someone's house or visits, the things he brings must be "matched". The so-called color matching means that the gifts should be in even numbers, which symbolizes pairs.
For example, two bottles of wine can only be counted as one color. A carton of cigarettes counts as one color, as does tea. Zhang Yuanqing naturally gathered six colors, symbolizing the six and six fortunes.
To be honest, the things he brought to Yang's house looked more similar than those he brought to Zhou Qiangbin's house. When he gets along with Zhou Qiangbin, Ma Qingyuan and others, he does not talk about those vulgar etiquette.
Whatever they want, they don't even have to call, they will take care of it and send it to them. Go to their home by yourself, just to express your feelings.
When going to my father-in-law's house, you should be more generous.
After all, he came to the house this time to prepare for the two families to sit down and settle the matter. They are giving you their daughter, so you can’t just go there with a few pounds of apples.
When we arrived at Yang's house, we didn't expect that many people from Yang's house would come early in the morning. Seeing this, Zhang Yuanqing could only bite the bullet and carry the things in.
As soon as we walked in, Xu Lin came over and took the things over: "Brother-in-law, you've had a hard journey. Come sit down and I'll help you recognize your relatives."
Zhang Yuanqing saw Yang Cheng and Xu Qingyun, and when he saw the troubled expressions on their faces, he knew that they were also in trouble.
It seems that there is still no way to avoid this problem. Zhang Yuanqing smiled and walked in calmly. Following Xu Lin, he recognized his relatives one by one.
Zhang Yuanqing's attitude was very sincere. He greeted every relative and sent New Year blessings. There were also some small red envelopes in his pocket that he planned to take home, including one hundred and two hundred yuan.
When Zhang Yuanqing saw the child, he obediently handed out a red envelope. By the time the circle came around, nearly a thousand yuan had been given out in red envelopes alone.
Fortunately, Zhang Yuanqing has never cared much about money. His expenses are not large, and he is not the kind of person who likes extravagance and licentiousness. Now as a full-time student, his income is still acceptable.
After coming around, Xu Lin said on behalf of everyone: "Brother-in-law, you are now a member of our family. From now on, everyone will point to you to make a fortune."
Zhang Yuanqing knew that he would not be able to get around this problem. He thought for a while and then said: "If there is anything I can do to help you, I will definitely find a way to help. But this favor must be within the scope of the law. For example, I will say hello to you. , I will be honest with everyone about any relevant policies or business opportunities."
Zhang Yuanqing was very honest and made it clear in advance what he could do and to what extent he could achieve it.
Xu Lin rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "We all understand these principles, and we will not make it difficult for you. We just take care of you when you can. It is difficult to do business now. If you don't have a relationship, it will be difficult to move forward."
Zhang Yuanqing laughed: "It's okay to create a fair and just environment for everyone. If anyone makes things difficult, I still have some connections to help. But you can't cheat me."
With that said, Zhang Yuanqing gave his mobile phone number. I saw that they all wrote down the number.
Zhang Yuanqing knew that if he didn't give him a number, he would look disrespectful. But if you give it, it will be trouble, but this trouble cannot be avoided. This is unavoidable in a human society. When the time comes, there will be many things happening when people trust others.
This can only be dealt with by adversity. If you don't deal with it now, you won't be able to survive this year. Zhang Yuanqing couldn't leave the trouble to Yang Xu's parents.
What's more, Zhang Yuanqing also expressed his attitude and marked his bottom line. In this way, it will be easier to explain anything else. People know where your bottom line is, and they won't mess around in many cases.
As for if he really encounters trouble, Zhang Yuanqing will definitely help. Even if this person is not a relative of the Yang Xu family, he is still a person who can't get rid of the dirt in his eyes.
Sure enough, Zhang Yuanqing made such a statement and gave out the number. Everyone is satisfied when they see the attitude.
After congratulating each other a happy New Year, Zhang Yuanqing told each relative that he was here to pick up his father-in-law and mother-in-law today, and he would treat everyone to a banquet next time. Before getting married, one must visit each family.
After hearing this, everyone took it seriously and went their separate ways.
Yang Cheng and Xu Qingyun couldn't help but nodded secretly as they watched Zhang Yuanqing send away these troublesome relatives. In his early twenties, he has such a magnanimous attitude towards others, no wonder he is so obsessed with his daughter.
"Uncle, aunt, my car is a little damaged, please bear with me." Zhang Yuanqing took the old couple out and said a little embarrassedly before getting in the car.
Xu Qingyun smiled slightly: "The car is a little worn out. When you and Xueer get married, I will give you a car as a gift."
Yang Cheng also nodded: "When the time comes, I will also sponsor a little bit."
Zhang Yuanqing also understood that this was the old couple's way of expressing their love for themselves. It shows that the two of them are very satisfied with themselves.
Zhang Yuanqing rushed all the way and drove the old couple to his hometown.
Unexpectedly, before I arrived, I saw a very lively scene in front of my house from a distance. It turned out that in order to welcome my father-in-law and mother-in-law, my parents had decorated the door of their house bustling with excitement.
According to the custom here, candy and melon seeds are also distributed to the children in the village. Yang Xu and Yin Tao also liked children very much, so they made trouble with them at the door.
After Zhang Yuanqing got off the bus with Yang Xu's parents, he took out the red envelope he had prepared in advance and dismissed the children who gathered around to shout Happy New Year.
Since they were given out at Yang Xu's house, the batch of red envelopes in hand has shrunk a lot. These red envelopes are all small red envelopes, containing ten yuan, twenty yuan, or fifty yuan.
The children didn't care, they were very happy when they got the red envelope and saw the money inside.
Fortunately, Yang Cheng and Xu Qingyun did not dislike such lively occasions. Instead, they felt that Zhang Yuanqing's family valued their daughter very much.
After walking in, Yang Cheng and Xu Qingyun saw Zhang Yuanqing's parents. Since I knew before arriving that Zhang Yuanqing's parents were authentic farmers, I didn't pay attention when I saw Zhang Yuanqing's parents' plain clothes and hurried forward to greet them warmly.
In comparison, Zhang Yuanqing's parents were a little at a loss.
It wasn't until Zhang Yuanqing came in that the old couple seemed to have a backbone.
Yang Cheng was secretly surprised when he saw it. As the eldest son, Zhang Yuanqing had a high status in the family. Although he is a son, he vaguely looks like the head of the family. No wonder he is calmer and more mature than his peers in dealing with people. It seems that he was trained in such a family environment.
This is definitely the best for Yang Cheng and his wife. On the contrary, they were afraid that if Yang Xu married a mama's boy and she would obey her parents in everything from now on, then their daughter would suffer the consequences.
As for Yin Tao, Yang Xu had already told her parents, so she didn't feel surprised to see this girl busy going back and forth, just like Zhang Yuanqing's sister.
Only Xu Qingyun was a little worried when he saw Yin Tao's appearance. This girl is only a few years younger than Yang Xu. She looks like a college student, well-behaved and smart. She has a good figure and knows how to dress up.
She thought to herself that she would still have to remind her daughter about fire, theft, and besties when she has time. You still need to be cautious about the high-quality women around you.
After all, Zhang Yuanqing is also relatively good. It would not be worth it if someone took care of him and worked hard to live with them, only to have his house stolen in the blink of an eye.
