Chapter 173 My son is so good at it (Thanks to the drowsy leader who doesn’t get up)
After school on Wednesday, when Chen Yuan and Xia Xinyu were riding home together, Chen Yuan clearly felt that the other person's breathing was a little disordered.
No, can you be so nervous?
My mother is indeed duplicitous, but she is not duplicitous.
"Xinyu, are you scared?" Chen Yuan couldn't help but ask when he was about to arrive at the station.
"No, no."
Xia Xinyu turned her head mechanically, looked at Chen Yuan, and said four words for five seconds.
"OK."
If a girl says she doesn't, she means she does, and if she says she does, she doesn't.
So the translation of this sentence is: Yes, yes, aren't you nervous that my parents suddenly come to you?
But that might be more than just nervousness.
"If they pick them up, should I go or not?" Thinking of this, Xia Xinyu asked nervously.
"I think it's best not to go." In this regard, Chen Yuan explained, "They are not outgoing people. The journey to pick up the driver is too long, and the atmosphere may be a bit awkward."
"But if I don't go...wouldn't it be bad?" Xia Xinyu was concerned about this.
If you are your girlfriend, then it is really not a good idea to go.
But if you are already planning to get married, then you must go.
But what is very embarrassing is that so far, she is neither a girlfriend nor a fiancée who is rushing to get married.
It's too early to say such things. After all, he is only a sophomore in high school, and he is even in the age of puppy love that is criticized.
I didn't expect that when this day really came, I would be so afraid.
If I had known earlier, I would have just pretended not to hear.
In fact, that day, she was already satisfied after hearing Chen Yuan's words "because of my heart".
But now, he is greedy!
"Well..." Chen Yuan thought for a while and decided, "Then let's not go."
"Ah?" Xia Xinyu was stunned, "Aren't you going to pick someone up?"
"I don't know why you were sure that I was going to pick him up..."
Regarding this, Chen Yuan explained slightly awkwardly: "When they came, I never went to the train station to pick them up. After all, they could just take the subway to the Sunshine Community stop."
"Son, are they all like this?" Xia Xinyu was confused by this and complained a little, "It's so inconsiderate."
"What's wrong with my son? I love my parents in my heart."
Chen Yuan feels that he is already very filial. If you don’t believe me, ask the old guy if I take the initiative to chat with him every month.
What, exploding gold coins does not count as chatting?
Who stipulates this is ridiculous.
"Then, you decide." Xia Xinyu said.
"Actually." Chen Yuan turned to look at the girl who was so nervous that her body was stiff, and said comfortingly, "You may think that it is because you have improved my grades that my mother cares about you so much. In fact, even without this, She also thinks you are a very good child."
"Really?" Xia Xinyu asked somewhat unconfidently.
"When you delivered milk to me that day, you may have heard some, but not everything." Chen Yuan said encouragingly, "She always thought you were beautiful, capable, and caring, but she just didn't understand why you were doing this to me. Good. In other words, now that I’m starting to study hard, she’s relieved.”
"Ah? Why don't you worry?" Xia Xinyu asked incomprehensibly.
Chen Yuan looked away, not ready to tell the truth, so he said vaguely: "It's just something."
"What?" Xia Xinyu said seriously, "Be clear, I care about it."
"Oh, you really don't understand?"
Chen Yuan always felt that this guy was a bit pretentious.
"I don't understand." Xia Xinyu shook her head, and then said, "So, just tell me and I will understand."
"Okay, then I'll explain it to you."
After Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment, he elaborated: "You are a mother. You have a son who is in the second year of high school and his grades are very poor. But there is one son who has very good grades and is more than 120 points higher than him. He has a sweet appearance and is comparable to She is known as the school beauty, is very capable, can cook and takes care of others. Now, your son says he wants to go to the same university as her, what would you think?"
"Is that so? I think my son might be dumped. After all, the college entrance examination will separate two people... No." Xia Xinyu came to her senses mid-sentence and quickly denied it, "I'm different."
"What's different about you?"
"My grades in school are not very good, and I am not a school beauty. Although I can cook well... I don't cook it for you often. It's just the two of us." Xia Xinyu's voice became softer and softer as she spoke. Confidence.
This is not an example of recognition of Chen Yuan.
But in the eyes of others, their future is indeed not that solid.
Otherwise, my aunt would not always pay so much attention to Chen Yuan's studies.
"Right, if you were to be my mother, the person who doesn't know anything about our situation, you would know that her worries are very reasonable." Chen Yuan said.
If Chen Yuan, who passed the 504 exam, said that he must be Xia Xinyu, his mother would only think that my son is so cute, and he is such a trustworthy and handsome baby. I don’t think that two people can go all the way down to the palace of marriage.
"Then what do you think?" Xia Xinyu was more concerned about what this boy thought.
"There are people in the car, do you really want to talk about this..." Chen Yuan wanted to avoid the question.
Then, Xia Xinyu stopped talking.
But after getting off the car, she stared into Chen Yuan's eyes and asked again: "Then what do you think?"
"I thought this topic had been ignored..."
Chen Yuan felt a headache because the slide could not be touched.
"You're running away again, just tell me seriously." Xia Xinyu said with a longing look, "Mom thinks that way out of an adult's experience. Your own opinion is the most important. of."
Does Chen Yuan really think that without these improvements in scores, he would still be 504, and if two people couldn't get into the same university, he would be dumped?
How could I get rid of him?
There's no way I can give it up!
I'm very emotional, even if he didn't go to college, I would still be with him. At that time, I worked hard to make as much money as possible and take on more responsibilities.
That's what she thought.
Looking at Xia Xinyu who was serious and not joking at all, Chen Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Actually, when I first met you, I didn't think about things too far away..."
"I never thought that the future would be..." Xia Xinyu looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Do you just want to take advantage of me?"
"No, you are too extreme, aren't you just acting like a hooligan without thinking about the future?"
"Yes."
Xia Xinyu nodded.
She is like an old antique, adhering to her unique philosophy. She is a superstitious defender who believes that "love without the purpose of marriage is a hooliganism".
Before this, she had never liked a boy because she always wanted to fall in love when she had the ability to make a decision.
Then, get it right in one step.
From first love to marriage.
Chen Yuan showed up a little early, but it didn't affect her adherence to this principle.
"Okay, okay."
Now that the other party said this, Chen Yuan also started to stir up trouble: "I continued to behave badly, and I couldn't listen to your advice to me to study. Then I passed the college entrance examination and got a bachelor's degree. After graduation, I just found a job casually. As for Ms. Xia Xinyu, she wants to go to graduate school, but the school she likes needs to go out of province, and I won’t go with her, and my family is still urging me to go on a blind date, what should you do?”
"You, you are not this kind of person." After thinking about it, Xia Xinyu suddenly became frightened and corrected her.
"Yes, so this matter is not true at all." Chen Yuan smiled, "It is nonsense to imagine such a thing. The current situation is that I am studying hard and making progress."
"Okay, let's just assume."
Xia Xinyu calmed down, inserted herself into the story just now, and then said very firmly: "Even if you can't listen to what I said, your character and mentality are still the same as when you were in the reservoir. After you arrive, you will really look like you As I said, I won't take the postgraduate entrance examination, and I won't let you have the opportunity to go on a blind date. What's wrong with a mediocre future, an ordinary life, or even poverty and poverty?"
If it doesn't work out, let's save some money and open a mom-and-pop shop. As long as we work hard...
"Hey, this is a science fiction movie?"
Chen Yuan suddenly felt that Ms. Xia Xinyu in front of him was a bit unreal.
It’s not what ordinary girls should say: Then you can’t stop me from becoming a better person.
"What a science fiction movie? Why don't you always believe me?" Xia Xinyu turned her head to the side and muttered depressedly, "Do you think I will lie, or do you think I will dump you like my mother worries?"
"That won't happen."
In this regard, Chen Yuan said frankly: "I just think that, personally, I don't want others to be backward compatible."
When facing a girl you like, you always want to surpass her - Southeast Men's Association.
"No need. No one is inferior to the other. How about we not talk about this between the two of us?" Xia Xinyu was really afraid that Chen Yuan would get into trouble.
"That won't work. I must be better than you."
"...Why?" Xia Xinyu asked in confusion.
Chen Yuan stretched out his hand, opened it, and said to Xia Xinyu: "Stretch out your hand and make it into a fist."
Although Xia Xinyu was puzzled, she still obeyed, and then Chen Yuan directly wrapped his hand around her fist.
"What does this mean?"
Xia Xinyu raised her head and asked.
"My hands are much bigger than yours, so I can only protect you."
Chen Yuan made an understatement of being a straight man and once again emphasized his status as the head of the family.
"This..." Xia Xinyu thought for a moment, and then realized what it meant.
Although she doesn't care about how promising Chen Yuan will be, what she likes is the person himself. Even if she really has to work from dawn to dusk to open a store in the future, it doesn't matter as long as she is the boss's wife.
But Chen Yuan will not let himself be better than him.
He wants to be the one who protects her...
This chauvinist is so handsome.
"Actually, you also need to understand my mother."
For the sake of family harmony, Chen Yuan explained for Ms. Yang Junlian: "She keeps telling me that Xia Xinyu is so beautiful. If your grades are not good and you don't go to a university in the future, she will be chased by other boys every day. Don't you Are you panicking?"
"Pfft."
Xia Xinyu was amused and thought it was so funny. Then, he turned to look at Chen Yuan and said jokingly: "Does this kind of motivating method have a motivating effect on you?"
"I'm too tired of this."
"Then I also said that I was worried that you would get into bad habits in a bad school. Without me watching, you would start hugging each other as soon as school started." Xia Xinyu didn't suffer at all and cleverly drew inferences.
"You're really good at figuring things out."
"You're better at figuring things out."
"But I still believe in you." Chen Yuan admired Xia Xinyu's womanly virtues and said, "Xinyu values love and is a good girl."
"Of course." Xia Xinyu stretched out her hand, facing Chen Yuan with her wrist, showing the shell necklace, "Look."
"I just realized you were wearing it today..."
"I thought I was going to pick them up, so I put them on."
"But if you put it on, my mother might tease me privately about why I didn't buy a better one..." Chen Yuan complained.
"No, your kindness is priceless." At this point, Xia Xinyu said very seriously, "You must let mother know that Xia Xinyu is not a materialistic girl, do you understand?"
"Yes, I will." Chen Yuan had to admit that it was also the first time for him to meet his parents, and Xia Xinyu seemed to handle it more properly than he did.
In other words, girls' minds are indeed delicate enough.
Xia Xinyu was too careful.
"Then let's go back quickly and prepare the meal." Xia Xinyu said.
"Actually, you can also eat outside..."
"Okay, I have a rare talent and I want to be praised by my father...by your parents."
Xia Xinyu suddenly felt that the cooking skills she had worked hard to improve before were just for this moment.
"Okay, let's go."
"By the way, is there anything you want to eat?"
Xia Xinyu actually felt a little emotional just now. After all, Chen Yuan said something that was not very confident about their future. But after learning that the reason why he worked so hard was because he didn't want other boys to pursue her, she immediately forgave him. So, he smiled and said: "Today, I will reward you with some of your favorite dishes."
…………
"Is there a sewing machine under your feet? Why are you shaking?"
Yang Junlian looked sideways at Chen Jianye, who was sitting next to him in the back seat of the taxi.
"Isn't it a little too early for us to come?" Chen Jianye said uneasily, "After all, they haven't even figured out their horoscopes yet."
"You really don't understand anything." Yang Junlian shook his head and asked, "How many times have we quarreled with Chen Yuan because of study?"
"The main reason is that you are making noise..."
"I will be the villain, right? Okay, just tell me, I have quarreled with him so many times, but when did he listen and his grades improved?" Yang Junlian asked seriously.
"It's true that my freshman year of high school has been declining."
"Then why did your grades improve this time?"
"Xinyu helps him with tutoring?"
"No matter how great Xinyu is, how can a teacher be so great? Is what she teaches better than a professional teacher?" Yang Junlian smiled and said with a look that saw through everything, "No one advises Chen Yuan to study hard, only the heart Words can do it. Your son has fallen in love, and he has fallen deeply in love."
"...That's it." Chen Jianye suddenly realized.
Chen Yuan was so afraid of trouble that he went all the way to Jingnan to express his condolences.
Isn't this just like myself and Yang Junlian back then?
Even before they were together, they went to attend someone else's funeral and even had the courage to attend a grand ceremony.
" Ah, it should be pretty stable. Now that your son’s grades have improved, it will be even more stable.”
"You know this is the case, so why do you make up a story?" Chen Jianye asked puzzledly.
Chen Jianye didn't know how he heard about it. Recently, there was a rumor in the family group that Chen Yuan and his girlfriend met in the library. What happened at that time was that Chen Yuan was writing a question in the library. A girl passed by him and then offered to teach him. He writes questions...
"What are you making up? I said it was possible. I don't know how it got spread like that." Yang Junlian retorted forcefully.
And what she said was that Chen Yuan was listening to music and reading in the library. A girl next to him asked him what he was listening to, and then he gave her an earphone...
"You can't talk nonsense. Now some people ask me whether Chen Yuan will bring his girlfriend back for the Chinese New Year." Chen Jianye sighed.
"I only told the Yang family, how did the Chen family know?"
"It must be Yang Qiqi. She played cards with Chen Bo and the others during the Chinese New Year."
"Just say it, what's the use of pursuing this matter now."
"You really defend your Yang family."
“Just maintain it, maintain it.”
Yang Junlian started to cheat and refused to bow his head and admit his mistake.
However, the voice message sent by Chen Yuan’s grandfather was indeed...
Do you really want Xia Xinyu to go back during the Chinese New Year?
No, where is this? If you say it, it will not be good for other girls’ reputations.
At least you have to wait until you graduate from high school and attend the entrance banquet.
In my reverie, the taxi has already arrived.
The two got out of the car, with Yang Junlian walking in front. Then, Chen Jianye followed behind, pulling a small suitcase.
They didn't bring much, and they didn't plan to stay too long. They were only staying for one night, thinking there was no need to disturb the children.
"Xia Hai's house is really expensive." Chen Jianye suddenly thought of this and asked Yang Junlian, "Should we start saving for a down payment?"
"You're further along than I thought."
"After all, children don't like living with evil... parents."
"What you just wanted to say was the evil mother-in-law, right?"
"No, don't taint someone's innocence."
The two people talked and argued all the time. Then, we went upstairs.
When preparing to knock on the door, Yang Junlian looked at the opposite door and fell into deep thought.
Can two people really be innocent when they are so close to each other and neither of them has parents to look after them?
Although my son doesn't like dating that much, he rejected several of them when he was in junior high school. It was purely because he didn't like them.
If you really want to meet a girl you like, can you not be lewd?
And girls also have the possibility of being lustful...
"Hey parents, you are here."
Because he heard the noise but didn't knock on the door, Chen Yuan opened the door. Then, he said hello with a smile.
"It smells so good. Have you cooked?"
Chen Jianye smelled it immediately, and his appetite was instantly aroused.
"Come in and eat."
After Chen Yuan brought the two of them in, his mother looked around and asked, "Where is Xinyu?"
"I'm sorry, so I'm doing my homework next door." Chen Yuan said, "By the way, this is the meal I cooked..."
"How is it possible? You are better at cooking than me. Is this because of her?" Lao Chen immediately pointed out.
Then, Chen Yuan said sheepishly: "She didn't let me say it, but I actually helped out as a cook."
"I can guess whether she will let you say it or not."
Chen Yuan deliberately led them to praise Xia Xinyu's little routine, how could Yang Junlian not know it.
"Don't tell me, my cooking skills have also improved a lot."
"It's really good." Chen Jianye looked at the dishes on the table and sighed with a smile, and then added, "It's just that the potatoes are cut a bit thick."
Chen Yuan's face darkened: "I cut it."
"So, go and invite them over."
After putting down the luggage and hanging the coat in the closet, Yang Junlian gave the following instructions.
"Okay then I'll give it a try."
"It's not a try, it's a must." Yang Junlian reminded, "If you don't have the ability, just stay over there."
Really?
Can I stay there at night?
"Okay, okay, okay."
After Chen Yuan agreed, he left the room. She walked to the door of Xia Xinyu's room, but instead of sending a message, she tried to put her ear close to the door and listen to her heart.
Sure enough, the voice came over.
【I can't hear anything...】
[How would they evaluate that table of dishes? 】
[I shouldn’t let Chen Yuan help me. Cutting the potatoes so thick will harm my cooking skills...]
Hey, didn’t I want to share the pressure with you? !
Hey, they are all insulting me, bullying me, belittling me, and laughing at me!
Chen Yuan tapped twice with his fingers: "It's me."
Then, the person over there hurriedly opened the door, looked at Chen Yuan, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I already said we wanted to eat together, and she asked me to treat you."
"I know, but you have to be a little shy." After Xia Xinyu finished speaking, she stood in front of Chen Yuan and asked, "Are your hair and clothes okay?"
Chen Yuan took a look and saw that Xia Xinyu was wearing the coffee-colored sweater that day, but with a warm-colored jacket. Her lower body was still the same burgundy sarong skirt, paired with flesh-colored pantyhose, and burgundy cotton slippers. , very homely and pleasant. Her hair is also in a ponytail, but it is not tied so high. The ponytail is only tied from the bottom of the neck...
"very beautiful."
"I know... but I don't know that I'm beautiful." Xia Xinyu explained seriously, "Is it better to be nice when meeting your mother?"
"You are indeed very good." Chen Yuan nodded, and then said, "But I have a little suggestion, will you adopt it?"
"you say."
Chen Yuan didn't say anything, and just started to pull her ponytail down a little further, from hanging on her back to hanging on her right shoulder.
His temperament has become much more mature in an instant.
"This?" Xia Xinyu didn't understand why she was doing this.
"Ah no no, it's too dangerous."
Although Xia Xinyu's skinned wife attributes were immediately maxed out, considering that in various works, wives with such hairstyles had a very high mortality rate, Chen Yuan quickly transferred her back.
"Okay, I don't understand."
Xia Xinyu didn't understand and was about to knock on the door. One hand suddenly took off her rubber band, and her long hair fell down.
"You stole another of my rubber bands." After Xia Xinyu protested, she asked, "Would Mom like this hairstyle?"
"I don't know what she thinks." Chen Yuan turned his face away, "Anyway, I quite like it."
The cheeks were flushed with blush.
Xia Xinyu was immediately silenced.
Really, I still want to meet someone...
And the two people she wanted to see were leaning against the door, pressing their ears to the wooden door, covering their mouths simultaneously, a feeling of shyness welling up...
My son, how can he be so good? !
