I boarded the train in the early morning frost and arrived at Seoul Railway Station at around two o'clock in the afternoon.
"Linglong, Mom."
As soon as they got out of the car with their luggage, Lu Jingchuan, dressed in military uniform, rushed in front of them and lifted the heaviest luggage in Gong Linglong's hand.
This was the first time Gong Linglong saw him wearing a military uniform. The olive green suit matched his figure very well and made him more handsome and elegant. He raised a bright smile and said, "Deputy Commander Lu, handsome!"
Lu Jingchuan was filled with joy when his wife praised her as soon as she opened her mouth, and he couldn't hold back the curvature of his mouth.
"My mother-in-law, Linglong."
A cheerful and gentle voice interrupted the mental communication between the two.
The mother and daughter both turned their heads to look at the person coming. Gong Linglong was sure at a glance that this was her mother-in-law. She looked about 45% like her aunt, with the same height, shape and temperament.
Behind her was a young gay man who looked very similar to Lu Jingchuan, but was a bit thinner. This was his brother-in-law Lu Jingyang.
Lu Jingchuan also immediately introduced: "Linglong, these are mom and little brother."
"mom!"
Gong Linglong immediately called someone politely, and it sounded natural, without any shyness or nervousness.
"Hey, Linglong."
Zhou Lanqin deserved it. She received a photo from her son in the mail earlier in Kyoto. She praised her daughter-in-law for her beauty at that time. After meeting today, she discovered that the real person is even more beautiful. She smiled and said: "Our Linglong is so beautiful. More beautiful than flowers.”
"My mother-in-law, please don't praise her like that. She can't stand it the most." Bai Shuixian answered with a smile.
Zhou Lanqin smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with her and greeted her in a friendly and polite manner: "My mother-in-law, thank you very much for recognizing our Jingchuan family, and thank you for marrying your precious daughter to our family."
"My mother-in-law, Jingchuan is very outstanding. It is her blessing that Linglong can marry him." Bai Narcissus said modestly.
Zhou Lanqin looked at the two children with a smile, feeling happy from the bottom of her heart: "Both children are very outstanding. They are a perfect match. It is destiny."
After the two elders exchanged greetings, Gong Linglong also took the initiative to talk to his brother-in-law, "Jingyang, hello."
"Hello, sister-in-law."
Lu Jingyang politely reached out to shake her hand, and also said hello to the elder: "Hello, Aunt Bai, I am Lu Jingyang, nice to meet you."
"Jingyang, hello."
Bai Shuixian shook hands with him and looked at Zhou Lanqin with a smile: "My mother-in-law is so lucky. Both of her children are talented and outstanding. I really envy others."
"It's my mother-in-law who thinks highly of them." Zhou Lanqin said with a smile.
After the two parties got to know each other and exchanged greetings, Lu Jingchuan spoke at the right time: "Mom, Linglong and Mom have had a hard time riding the train. We haven't had lunch yet. Let's go to a state-owned hotel to eat now and talk while we eat."
"Okay. Mother-in-law, come here, let me help you carry your luggage. You were injured before and your health is just fine. Don't be tired of carrying heavy objects." Zhou Lanqin is a neat person, so he took away all the luggage from Bai Narcissus. .
Lu Jingchuan drove a jeep to pick them up. The car parked outside the station entrance. He put all the luggage in the trunk and asked them to get in the car: "Linglong, you and mom sit in the back seat. There are thermos bottles on the seats. There is hot ginger syrup in it, you and mom should both drink some to dispel the wind and cold."
Seeing how attentive and considerate he was, Gong Linglong couldn't help teasing him: "Oh, I really got lucky. I got a big baby on a blind date."
Lu Jingchuan: "..."
Can't we talk about this when we go home?
"Ha ha..."
Zhou Lanqin and Lu Jingyang, mother and son, hadn't even gotten in the car yet, so they both laughed happily.
Bai Narcissus also pursed her lips and laughed. She patted her daughter with a smile and said with a smile in her eyes: "Get in the car!"
Gong Linglong was so busy talking that she forgot that her mother-in-law and brother-in-law were present, but she didn't regret it, let alone feel ashamed, and she even pushed Lu Jingchuan: "Baby, go drive quickly, I'm hungry."
Lu Jingchuan's back molars were grinding back and forth, even when he smiled or not.
His tough little daughter-in-law... has such a mouth.
Lu Jingyang got into the passenger seat and laughed so hard that his shoulders kept twitching. After Lu Jingchuan opened the door and got in the car, he said with a smile: "Brother, big baby, drive quickly, I'm hungry too."
"Shut up."
Lu Jingchuan punched him, and when he shouted "big baby", why did he feel so nauseous?
His little daughter-in-law still shouts nicely, but she shouldn't shout outside.
Gong Linglong sat between the two mothers in the back row, holding the ginger syrup the man prepared for her in her left hand, and her mother-in-law stuffed sesame cakes and glutinous rice sticks in her right hand.
"Linglong, mother-in-law, please eat something to fill your stomach first, don't go hungry."
Gong Linglong accepted it with a smile, gave some to her mother, took out the oranges from the bag, and gave one to her mother-in-law and brother-in-law, "Mom, Brother Jing, Jingyang, these oranges are very sweet, not sour at all." No, you should eat to satisfy your stomach."
These are oranges produced by the space. They taste sweeter than those bought outside. Both mother and daughter like to eat them.
There are five orange trees planted in the space, as well as a lot of apple trees and rock sugar oranges. The fruits are densely packed. Now there is a pile of ripe fruits in the corner. She plans to come to Seoul to find a way to sell some.
"Well, these oranges are good and delicious."
Zhou Lanqin usually doesn't like to eat sour food. The orange her daughter-in-law gave her today was very suitable to her taste. She even broke off two pieces for her to eat, "Linglong, come here, you can eat some too."
"Mom, you eat, I still have some in my bag. This cake is delicious, you should eat some too." Gong Linglong said with a smile.
"If you like chicken cakes, mom will buy them for you later."
She brought this cake from Kyoto and went to a long-established state-owned pastry shop to buy it. She thought that girls should like to eat soft and sweet pastries, so she brought more this time.
Seeing that her daughter-in-law really liked them, Zhou Lanqin was very happy and grabbed two more from her bag and stuffed them into her and her mother-in-law's hands.
Lu Jingchuan held the steering wheel with one hand, peeled the orange with the other, and ate half of it in one bite. Seeing that his wife and mother got along well and started feeding each other so quickly, he smiled and said to them: "Linglong, our wedding is scheduled for tomorrow. , you and mom will stay at a guest house in the city tonight, and I will come to pick you up tomorrow morning."
"Okay, just make arrangements."
Gong Linglong had no objection and just asked: "How far is it from the city to the army?"
"It's nearly twenty miles away. The army has commuter buses to the city in the morning, twice a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I'll tell you in detail when we get to the family area."
"good."
Lu Jingchuan stepped on the accelerator and walked to the entrance of the state-owned hotel. After parking the car, he led everyone to order food and ordered a few Seoul specialties.
Zhou Lanqin and her sister Zhou Lanping have similar personalities, they are forthright and talkative, and their words are very measured. Although they met Bai Shuixian for the first time, they got along very well and started chatting as soon as they sat down.
Lu Jingyang's personality is similar to that of Lu Jingchuan. Maybe it's because of his career. He is also a person who doesn't talk much and is very rigorous in his speech.
Five people sat around a table, chatting about common things, and the atmosphere was more harmonious and harmonious than imagined.
