Cover the glass with water

The lady who came was of course Xin Mu.

She came like a gust of fragrant wind, and immediately swept to Lin Chunhong's side, and said, "This is the in-laws, right?"

Lin Chunhong was originally from a well-to-do family, and she had never seen a real lady around her. Seeing Xin Mu's overall demeanor, she felt that she was a head short, stood up a little unnaturally, and said with a smile: "I am Su Zhong's mother. My name is Lin Chunhong. Are you Xin Qianyu's mother?"

"Well, Chunhong, what a good name. May I call you Chunhong?" Xin Mu held Lin Chunhong's hand and said affectionately.

Seeing that Xin Mu was so enthusiastic, Lin Chunhong couldn't stand it all of a sudden, so she nodded, "Okay, okay."

"My name is Xin Mu." Xin Mu paused, and then said, "What does Chunhong belong to?"

Lin Chunhong felt that Xin Mu was worthy of being a businessman. When older women asked her age, she was afraid that it would be embarrassing and sensitive, so she asked her zodiac sign so that people could figure it out.Lin Chunhong honestly told her zodiac sign.

Upon hearing this, Xin Mu said, "Yo, that girl, you are younger than me. You can just call me Sister Mu."

Lin Chunhong was completely led away, so she called Xin Mu her sister.

However, Lin Chunhong didn't feel anything wrong at the moment, but was a little surprised: Xin Mu was actually older than herself?Xin Mu looks so young!

Lin Chunhong couldn't help being surprised: "Sister Mu looks very young, but she's actually older than me?"

"It's true..." Xin Mu was really confident and cherished his face, and he brushed his fingers with French manicure gently over his soft cheeks, and said, "It's all made of money. One year's time It costs hundreds of thousands to do medical beauty.”

Lin Chunhong clicked her tongue when she heard the words, thinking she heard it wrong: "Hundreds of thousands?"

"Well, I have a good foundation." Xin Mu waved his hand, "I know a lot of wives who want to spend seven figures on their face."

Lin Chunhong was just admiring Xinmu's state at first, but now she feels a little sour: it's like a scumbag envious of a top student, but when he finds out that the top student got such a high score after attending hundreds of thousands of cram schools, this A scumbag may not be able to simply envy, and even think: "If I have this money to go to cram school, I can be like him! What's so great about him? Isn't it because he is rich?"

Lin Chunhong couldn't help but said sourly: "Really? I heard that many plastic surgery and beauty treatments will fail. For example, celebrities will beat their faces into zombies. Sister Mu, you should also be careful..."

Xin Mu laughed: "It's okay, it's okay, I can afford to fix it even if it's broken." She didn't care at all in her words, but she didn't know whether she didn't care about messing up her face, or didn't care about Lin Chunhong's offensive words.

To be honest, if others talked to Xin Mu like this, Xin Mu would have brought out the ak early in the morning, but considering that she is Su Zhong's real mother and it is not easy for her to be a single mother, Xin Mu was a little more tolerant.

Su Zhong is a socially retarded person, so he didn't hear the undercurrent between Xin Mu and Lin Chunhong at all.

Xin Qianyu could hear the smell, but he chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb. As the saying goes, "When adults talk, why do children intervene?"

He just bowed his head and ate.

Su Zhong seriously dismantled Aolong for Xin Qianyu.When the lobster in the restaurant came up, it was a big red one with a shell, and it was equipped with a set of silver lobster removal tools.Su Zhong skillfully used tools to remove the shells, and even removed the meat from the lobster's claws. With a serious expression and meticulous movements, I didn't know he thought he was sticking the film.

After he picked out all the meat, he put it on a delicate gold-rimmed white porcelain plate and handed it to Xin Qianyu for Xin Qianyu to eat.

Seeing her son serving others like this, Lin Chunhong felt sore and astringent in her heart, and said with a smile: "Now that the son has grown up, he will even peel the shell for his wife. Why don't you help my mother peel it?"

Su Zhong said, "Aren't you good at tearing apart lobsters?"

Lin Chunhong laughed angrily: "I can, but Xiaoyu is also a son of a famous family. I don't know how many times he has eaten Western food. He should also be able to tear apart lobsters, right?"

Xin Qianyu is annoyed by Lin Chunhong's ambiguity, but she doesn't want to start a fight with her.

Xin Mu smiled, and said: "Yes, Xiaoyu in our family is spoiled and spoiled. Since she was a child, her ten fingers did not touch the spring water, let alone tearing down lobsters, even tying shoelaces. So, at the beginning when he said that he wanted to reconcile with Su Zhong. When we were together, I was very worried. After all, our Xiaoyu is a golden branch and jade leaf, and there are no more than twenty people in the family to take care of him. Let's go. Drink enough water. However, looking at it now, Su Zhong still has a sense of service and knows how to take care of Xiaoyu. I am also relieved."

Lin Chunhong was about to lose her temper when she heard Xin Mu's words: "What sense of service? They're both men, so why should one take care of the other? They're both adults, so it's okay to take care of each other!"

"You can't say that!" Xin Mudao, "My Xiaoyu has been spoiled since she was a child, she can't do anything, she just needs others to take care of her. I think Su Zhong is also very happy, right, Su Zhong?"

Su Zhong replied: "Yes, I am very happy."

Lin Chunhong gritted her teeth angrily, and just wanted to ask, how much ecstasy did this Xin Qianyu take for Su Zhong, making him look like a fool?

Lin Chunhong looked at Xin Qianyu, and said only: "Xiaoyu, I said you are so old, you should also learn some life skills? It is also good for you!"

Xin Qianyu rolled her eyelids, smiled and said, "Well, you're right, I have learned something, for example, I learned how to use a microwave oven recently."

Xin Mu immediately clapped his hands together: "Ah, he really deserves to be my good son! Mom is so proud that he can even use such a high-tech product as a microwave oven."

Lin Chunhong was shocked: Are you mentally retarded!

Xin Qianyu added: "But in fact, Su Zhong and I are both busy, so we don't have much time to think about life skills. In this regard, we are not the same. In fact, they are all small things, which can be solved by finding a helper."

Seeing Xin Qianyu pass the steps, Lin Chunhong also went downhill, and she thought to herself that this was indeed the case. Xin Qianyu and Su Zhong are not ordinary couples. There must be no one who serves the other, who takes care of the other, or who does the housework in life. Do those trivial problems.After all, they are rich, as Xin Mu said, hire twenty or so servants to stay at home, so you don’t have to tie your shoelaces yourself!

Lin Chunhong was defeated, so she could only comfort herself: Whoever peels the shrimp shells for whom is just a small hobby, why should I care about it?My son can't afford it either.

It's just that "little interests" can be ignored, but "big problems" must be mentioned.

Lin Chunhong asked again: "When will your wedding be held?"

Xin Qianyu pretended to be a daughter-in-law and didn't talk to her.

Su Zhong said, "We have no plans for a wedding yet."

"Well..." Lin Chunhong also guessed, "Actually, it's nothing. Nowadays, many young people don't like to hold weddings, and this mother also understands. But I have to go back to have a meal with relatives and toast tea and toast. It's a formality. Tradition things that cannot be lost.”

Xin Qianyu immediately caught the four words "toast tea and toast" that Lin Chunhong stuffed into a carload of words.Since these four words are used, it must not be as simple as having a meal with relatives, and if the word "traditional things" is added, I am afraid there are some mines hidden in it.

Xin Qianyu's guess is true, Lin Chunhong does have a plan: first trick Xin Qianyu to her home court, kidnap Xin Qianyu in the name of tradition and hometown, and set up rules for Xin Qianyu.

Xin Mu also guessed this matter.

Xin Mu laughed and said, "Sister Chunhong, I think it's not bad if you have this idea."

Hearing Xin Mu's cheerful and straightforward agreement, Lin Chunhong was stunned: "Yes, is it? Sister Mu, you think it's good too?"

"Of course." Xin Mu said with a smile, "I think it's very good!"

Xin Qianyu felt cold: It would be good if Xin Mu directly lifted the table and took out the ak47 chug chug.Now Xin Mu's grinning smile is scary, she doesn't know what bad water is in her stomach, and the other party doesn't even know how she died.

"Speaking of tradition," Xin Mu said, "then it must not be lost. Asking Najib's dowry is also indispensable. I will leave my words here. As for the dowry, I don't care how much the old man gives, it just hurts." That’s all for the children. I pay 88888888 out of my own pocket and buy sweets for the children. In-laws, just watch and give them to me!”

Lin Chunhong immediately turned pale: "This...hehe..."

88888888 is an astronomical figure for Lin Chunhong.She had never seen so much money in her life.

Of course, this number is completely fine for Su Zhong.

It stands to reason that Su Zhong should have come to rescue him at this time, but Su Zhong didn't because he was still peeling shrimp for his wife.

At this time, if the scene is allowed to freeze, I am afraid it will not look good.Xin Qianyu immediately came to pretend to be a good person, pretending to be a virtuous person, and only said: "Why are you talking about this? Auntie Chunhong just said it casually, but it has not yet been decided! If a family like us is going to have a traditional wedding, don't prepare for it." I spent hundreds of millions of dollars in half a year, and I’m ashamed to meet people! It’s better to use the rest of the money for public welfare, Aunt Chunhong, don’t you think so?”

Lin Chunhong was flustered by "8000 million" just now, but now she heard that she would have to spend "hundreds of millions", she was stunned and completely overwhelmed.It stands to reason that according to Su Zhong's net worth, it is normal to have a marriage of tens of millions.But Lin Chunhong has always been in the state of a petty citizen. Even if she has become prosperous, she has not become rich, so she is still thinking like an ordinary person. When she hears so much money, she can't stand it immediately, and her momentum instantly fades away.

She just nodded repeatedly: "Well, yes, Xiaoyu is right."

For this meal, Lin Chunhong looked like a mother-in-law when she came, and like a younger brother when she went.Before leaving, Xin Mu patted her on the shoulder and said, "Okay, Chunhong, it's getting late, you should come back too."

——In this tone, the word "Chunhong" was called by Xin Mu like a maid's name.

But Lin Chunhong was so suppressed that she lost her breath, so she could only lower her head and shout: "Okay, Sister Mu."

Lin Chunhong followed her son out in a panic, while Xin Mu specially pulled Xin Qianyu aside, and the two mother and son whispered.What he said was also very simple, naturally it was to evaluate Lin Chunhong.

Xin Mu only complained to Su Zhong: "You mother-in-law is not very good..."

Xin Qianyu laughed and said, "What 'mother-in-law'? I don't even recognize 'husband', but I still recognize 'mother-in-law'?"

Xin Mu changed her words: "You don't treat her mother-in-law, but she really treats you as a 'daughter-in-law'. She always tries to force you to set rules."

Xin Qianyu just said: "I just ignore her."

"You can be patient with Su Zhong's mother." Xin Mu suddenly became sour, "Why didn't you treat me so well?"

"This is called 'the difference between relatives and estrangements'." Xin Qianyu sighed, "It's okay if you follow her, but if you disagree, you will definitely quarrel. If you lose the quarrel, I will lose face, and if you win the quarrel, I will still lose face." Xin Qianyu He smiled and looked at his mother again, "Otherwise I wouldn't bother you to come here."

Xin Mu pinched him and said, "That's the reason. You can't quarrel with her. Can I quarrel with her?"

"Why not?" Xin Qianyu was a little surprised, "She is a mother, and you are also a mother. A son can't pinch his mother, but why can't a mother pinch her?"

"Hey, it's as simple as that." Xin Mu said, "The problem is, she is a poor mother, and I am a rich mother. In any case, as long as the rich and the poor fight, the rich is the wrong one."

Xin Qianyu shook her head: "Why are you a rich mother? Isn't Su Zhong rich? Why is his mother a poor mother?"

"Because his mother has been poor for a long time, and she doesn't look rich yet." Xin Mu shook her head, "Think about it, if she cries about being poor on a show, saying that her son who has been raised so hard flies to a branch, and the rich in-laws bully others, do you think you will be bullied by the time? Who is the person who condemned with words and pens?"

Xin Qianyu was speechless.

"Besides, we are executives of a listed company now." Xin Mu pinched his delicate nails and sighed helplessly, "Any fart may affect the stock price. How can we do whatever we want like before?"

Xin Qianyu also felt the same way.

Xin Mu said: "Besides, if you want to live a good life with Su Zhong, I shouldn't tear myself apart with her."

"What... who wants to live a good life with Su Zhong?" Xin Qianyu's face became hot, "Lin Chunhong doesn't know, don't you? Su Zhong and I are just a superficial couple."

Xin Mu squinted his eyes to look at Xin Qianyu, and smiled: "You say so!"

After a pause, Xin Mu said again: "Since you are an 'superficial couple', you have to be a little 'superficial'. Now it's okay to live in different rooms in the hotel in the United States. When you return to your country, will you live separately?"

Xin Mu's words also reminded Xin Qianyu.

Xin Qianyu and Su Zhong had to consider where to live.

Back at the hotel, Xin Qianyu also raised this issue with Su Zhong.

Su Zhong was silent for a while, then said, "Are you coming back to live?"

There was a trace of nervousness and caution in his tone, as if he had asked a question that had been buried in his heart for a long time.

"Come back...?" Xin Qianyu didn't react for a while.

"It's where we used to live together." Su Zhong said slowly.

Xin Qianyu's heart tightened: "There... is there still there?"

"Of course it is, and there was no earthquake." Su Zhong was puzzled, "There was no demolition either. How could it not be here?"

Xin Qianyu said awkwardly, "No, I just... just think about the past few years..."

"It's only been three years," Su Zhong said, "The house doesn't collapse that easily."

Houses don't fall down so easily.

No wonder so many people insist on buying a house when they get married, perhaps because they feel that their relationship is not as reliable as a house.

The same is true to be honest, it is difficult for a relationship to last longer than a house.

"Ahem." Xin Qianyu felt emotional in her heart, turned her face away, and pretended to be calm, "After so many years, does the house need to be cleaned and redecorated before we can live in it?"

"No need." Su Zhong said, "I always live there when I'm in China."

Xin Qianyu was even more in a trance.

After three years, Xin Qianyu returned to the residence where they lived together.

When the two arrived at the door, Su Zhong was holding the suitcase in his left and right hands, but he didn't open the door with either hand.And when Xin Qianyu saw the familiar environment, she just pressed her fingertips onto the fingerprint lock without thinking about it.

Soon, the door opened.

Xin Qianyu was taken aback: "Can my fingerprints open this door?"

Su Zhong didn't understand why Xin Qianyu was so surprised: "Isn't your fingerprint always able to open this door?"

Xin Qianyu walked into the apartment, and a familiar smell came over her face.

This seems to be a strange phenomenon. There must be a familiar smell in a familiar place. It is difficult for you to describe what kind of smell it is, but when you smell it, you know that you are home.

Xin Qianyu was in a trance for a while, the layout of the living room in front of her was the same as yesterday, even the half-used pillow was still placed in its original position, quietly, as if he had just left for a while, and three years of time had frozen in the The moment before he left.

Also the bedroom, the room seemed to be cleaned regularly, very clean, but not tidy.

When Xin Qianyu left here, she was in a bit of a hurry. Before going out, she blew out the half-burned scented candles, hung up her clothes in a hurry, and didn't put them into proper categories according to Su Zhong's storage habits. Kicking to the wall - all of this is not in line with Su Zhi's tidy living habits.

But at this moment, the room is exactly as it was when Xin Qianyu left, with slippers crookedly placed at the foot of the wall, clothes hanging in a mess, scented candles half burned and not put away, and the pillows on the bed still obsessive obsessive-compulsive disorder. leave it alone.

There are still half scented candles on the bedside table.

Pointing to the candle, Xin Qianyu asked, "This... is this what you are using?" He found his voice trembling when he spoke.

"No, it's the one you didn't finish burning last time." The word Su Zhong used was "last time", as if Xin Qianyu had just left.

Xin Qianyu's heart was beating extremely fast, and there were many silent emotions that were afraid to surge out at any time.Afraid of losing his composure, he squeezed his palms hard, and changed the subject pretending to be calm: "Ah, I'm so tired. The long-distance flight is really tiring."

"Well, yes, it's been flying for a long time—" Su Zhong suppressed the urge to hug each other from behind, and said in a calm voice as much as possible: "Finally came back."

Su Zhong and Xin Qianyu, as "superficial couples" who agree with each other, of course sleep in separate rooms.

Mr. Xin with "golden branches and jade leaves" naturally sleeps in the master bedroom.

Speaking of which, Xin Qianyu is not a person who accepts bed.Besides, even if he recognized the bed, he shouldn't suffer from insomnia, because he should recognize the bed.

This was obviously the old bed he had slept in for many years.

And everything in this bedroom seemed to reappear from yesterday, it was the appearance he was most familiar with.

But it was precisely this familiarity that made him at a loss and made it difficult for him to fall asleep.

Today, he seems to have to admit that Su Zhong cares about him more than he imagined.

If Xin Qianyu broke up with Su Zhong because he couldn't stand Su Zhong's indifference, what about now?

There are indications that this is not the case.

He's just kind of... clumsy and dull.

Of course being clumsy and dull can hurt, but it's better than being cold and heartless.

Before Su Zhong proposed to reunite, Xin Qianyu subconsciously felt fear, the kind of fear of "ten years of fear of well ropes", her mind was not in control, and she just ran away on conditioned reflex.

Now that momentum has slowly passed away, the panic in Xin Qianyu's heart has dissipated, and what is floating in her heart is more hesitation and confusion.

How on earth should he face this clumsy but determined old lover?
