when she became "he"
Chapter 91
As soon as the doorbell rang, Zhang Qian hurriedly stood up from the sofa. When she felt that she had overreacted, she sat down again, coughed lightly, and said, "Ran Ran, go and open the door!"
Xia Ran was dumbfounded by the situation of the three trials at home, and also a little nervous, wondering if Xu Nuo would be able to handle it later.
Xia Ran opened the door, and as expected, she saw Xu Nuo holding two hands full of gift boxes outside the door. They looked at each other, and she clearly saw the anxiety and nervousness in his eyes.
"slowly……"
Xia Ran gave him a comforting look, but inexplicably gave him a bad feeling.
As a result, that premonition soon came true...
The last time Mama Xia who came to pick up vegetables for him and called "Xiao Zhao" affectionately sat on the sofa and just nodded at his appearance. The indifferent expression of fighting for interests.There are two elderly people beside him, Xu Nuo knows that these are probably Xia Ran's grandparents, another middle-aged woman who is about the same age as Xia's mother is Aunt Xia Ran, and a young woman with a prominent belly, If nothing else, it's Xia Ran's cousin Li Yuehua.
Being stared at by so many people, Xu Nuo was a little dazed. He was led by Xia Ran into the living room in a daze, and greeted everyone present one by one cautiously.
Xia Ran also took the opportunity to introduce Xu Nuo, "Parents, grandparents, this is Zhao Wenwen, my boyfriend."
The old lady on the opposite side put on the reading glasses hanging on her chest, and looked carefully with a smile on her clear and thin face, showing a kind smile, "What a beautiful child, sit down quickly, don't stand up."
Grandma Xia's kind attitude made Xu Nuo slightly relieved, and then she sat down on the opposite side of the sofa. Xia Ran gave her a grateful look, and it was not in vain that she told grandma a few baskets of promises in the past two days good words.
It was also the homework that Xia Ran had been doing for the family over the past year. Although Zhang Qian felt that she had to consider her prospective son-in-law carefully, she benefited from her daughter's good impressions of her boyfriend from time to time, or her intentional or unintentional disclosure of some love stories. Things, and the past few years have promised that although people have not arrived during the holidays, they will bring some gifts to the family through Xia Ran, so on the whole, Zhang Qian is still very satisfied with this future son-in-law. Of course, apart from not knowing the promise It is outside the people of r city, which is thousands of miles away from s city.
"Xiao Zhao, I heard from Ran Ran that you are from the same school as her?" Grandma Xia's eyes behind the reading glasses were clear and with a hint of a smile. Those eyes, which were very similar to Xia Ran's, made Xu Nuo feel nervous. Slowed down a little.
"Yes, grandma, Ran Ran and I are in the same university. We met on the day we registered for registration, and we gradually got to know each other later."
"Okay, when I was studying, my feelings were simple, unlike when I was working, it was complicated. Then you have known each other for several years?" Grandma Xia actually knew about these things from Xia Ran, but she was also happy to think about her granddaughter begging her. Help these two young people, her granddaughter's vision is naturally not bad.
"You guys are from the same university, and you are also studying medicine. I see that the work of studying medicine is very busy, and you basically don't have time to take care of your family." Aunt Xia Ran listened to the old lady who seemed to have a tendency to turn against her, so she interrupted One sentence.
This is indeed a problem. Xu Nuo turned his head and glanced at Xia Ran. Xia Ran reached out and shook his hand comfortingly. After thinking for a while, he said: "In the next two or three years, Ran Ran and I will still be graduate students, so there is no such problem. As for the future, we have also talked about it, Ran Ran has a pure personality, and after graduating from graduate school, he can continue to study for a Ph. D. or choose to stay in school to teach and teach in other colleges and universities that are more relaxed." After all, I am sorry, Xu Nuo thought about it and added, " Even if both of them work in the hospital, I believe we will coordinate well. If it doesn’t work, you can also fund a clinic and work for a few years to come out and do it alone.”
Xu Nuo and Xia Ran had indeed talked about this issue, but it was not what he said. He knew from a very early age that Xia Ran's dream was to be a doctor who saved lives and healed the wounded, so she began to go to the hospital when she was very young. Or as a volunteer in the welfare home, when Xia Ran proposed that she stay in school or continue to study for a Ph. Solutions.
Xia Ran unexpectedly turned her head and glanced at Xu Nuo, which was different from what they had discussed before. She naturally likes the profession of a doctor, but in comparison, she thinks Xu Nuo is more suitable, no matter his medical background Talent or the undisguised appreciation of the school professor and the director of the hospital are a good illustration of this. If one of the two must give up, she thinks she is more suitable, and she can continue to work if she stays in school to teach. The medical career does not count as abandonment of dreams.
Zhang Qian's face was a little moved. To be honest, she prefers her daughter to be a teacher rather than a doctor. Everyone knows that doctors work hard, but teachers are relatively more relaxed. She also persuaded her to let her go when she was in the college entrance examination. Her daughter applied for the normal school, but at that time, Xia Ran was stubborn and wanted to apply for the medical university. She couldn't help it. What Zhao Wenwen said now is a good solution.
Compared with Zhang Qian's moving face, Aunt Xia Ran's focus was obviously different. After hearing Xu Nuo's words, she said in surprise, "Are you still studying?" How can a man support his family without a job or income? "Zhao Wenwen, right? How many people are in the family, what do the parents do, how much is the monthly income, how much is the family property, and what are the specifications of the building? Tell me about it."
Xia Ran watched her aunt holding a cup of tea and gently blowing the tea noodles. The curling heat engulfed her face, her expression was very indifferent, but the question she asked was extremely sharp. After asking these questions, my mother's eyes stared at Xu Nuo like radiating lights, obviously waiting for his answer.
Xu Nuo didn't show any embarrassment, and answered her seriously, "Auntie, there are only my parents in my family, my parents..."
Xia Ran felt that Xu Nuo was very angry as if answering the interviewer's question, so she couldn't help interrupting, "Mom, what are you doing!"
Zhang Qian gave her a white look, "You interrupt when someone is talking, do you understand the rules?"
"Then what's the rule in your tone like interrogating prisoners?" Xia Ran was eager to protect her boyfriend, feeling that her mother and aunt were not normal today, and if this continues, they will reveal their secrets.
"Ran Ran." Xu Nuo took her hand into his own, "Ran Ran, Auntie just wants to know more about me." What's more, Xia Ran's parents will know about his family situation sooner or later. Xia Ran comforted her softly, and continued to reply, "My parents are both farming in the countryside and have no fixed income. The family is considered to have little assets. There is a two-story bungalow of more than 100 square meters in the countryside..."
"Wait!" Zhang Qian interrupted him suddenly, "You said your parents are farming in the countryside? Your family is from the countryside?"
Although he knew that Xia Ran's parents might not like what he was going to say next, Xu Nuo said frankly at once: "Yes, auntie, my family is in a small town under the jurisdiction of R City in Province W, and its economic development is relatively backward. , most of the people in the village are farming at home.”
Where is city r? Zhang Qian has never heard of it, but she still knows about province w. It is thousands of miles away from city h. In an instant, she just felt a big blow. She thought Zhao Wenwen was from city s, and she heard her daughter The family conditions are not bad inside and out. She thought that today was just a formality to see her future son-in-law. How could she expect that there is such a bomb waiting for her!
The word "rural" is the most undesirable word for sister Zhang Qian. She glared at Xia Ran, who pretended to be innocent, and she couldn't believe it. She actually kept hiding it from her, it really is a girl who is extroverted.
Because of this sudden accident, Grandma Xia looked blankly at her granddaughter and her son and daughter-in-law, and she couldn't speak up to help the two young people. She really couldn't bear to marry her granddaughter to the countryside!
Xia Tian, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke, "Are you and Ran Ran in love with each other as a prerequisite for getting married?"
Xu Nuo nodded firmly, "Yes."
"Heh, how old are you guys, you didn't go out into the society and didn't have a job, so you want to get married so hastily?" Aunt Xia Ran snorted coldly.
Xia Ran's temples twitched, and he couldn't help it for a long time, "Dad, if he said he didn't consider getting married, would you be satisfied?"
And aunt, who used to say that girls should choose a good one when they are young, lest they have to pick others when they are old, and every time they come back, they say that they want to introduce some social elites to her, If it weren't for the real boyfriend Xu Xu, I don't know how many times I would have a blind date.
This kind of question is clearly for the purpose of embarrassing the promise!
Zhang Qian waved her hand, "Yuehua, you took your sister inside to play, and she kept interrupting what the adults were saying, she is really ignorant."
Li Yuehua was ordered, "Hey", and dragged Xia Ran into the house, because she was pregnant with a child, Xia Ran didn't dare to struggle too hard, and by the time she realized it, she had been dragged into the room, and the door was locked , Li Yuehua blocked the door with her big belly, she could only give up even struggling.
"What do you mean? Sincerely scaring Zhao Wenwen away? Didn't you like him?" Xia Ran sat by the bed and asked Li Yuehua in front of the door.
"They are also worried that you will be cheated."
"Cheat what? Fake marriage?" Xia Ran asked back.
Li Yuehua was stunned for a moment, and then said mockingly: "You also know, because of the matter between me and Jiang Renchang, my aunt and mother are more sensitive to these things, and..." She paused, then continued, "With my From personal experience, I can tell you sincerely that unless you don’t live with your parents-in-law in the country, you will have problems sooner or later. When a man has a conflict between his wife and mother, you should never expect him to stand by your side. "
"I also heard it just now. He is the only one in your boyfriend's family. He is not the only one in Jiang Renchang's family. His parents are so precious, let alone Zhao Wenwen's family. If you really get married in the future , you will know how much patriarchy is in the countryside. They don't treat their daughters-in-law as daughter-in-laws, they treat their daughter-in-law as a nanny. It's women's business to do laundry, cook and take care of children. Men are like uncles, what? You don't need to do it." As if recalling some bad memories, the corner of Li Yuehua's mouth curled into a mocking arc.
Xia Ran knew that she was remembering the past, and it was not good to argue with her, so she could only pouted and said in dissatisfaction: "Nuo Nuo is different from them, he doesn't have those machismo." Moreover, he is a man inside. Girl, there will never be such a problem between them.
"Before a man got married, he didn't try to please his girlfriend in every possible way. Jiang...Jiang Renchang used to be like that. He was obedient to me, and everything was exposed when he got a firm foothold. How do you know that he is not the next Jiang Renchang? Just look at your family."
Xia Ran thought it was ridiculous, "It's okay for my uncle to do business. It's a small asset. Our family has a lot of money. In City S, we don't even count as middle class. There are too many rich people, and they use it to deceive our family. Is this some money!"
Li Yuehua choked for a moment, thought for a while before saying: "How is it impossible, have you forgotten the inheritance that your friend left you? Maybe that's why he came here."
Xia Ran couldn't laugh or cry when she heard that, Xu promised that if she knew that the property he had left to her had become an obstacle for the two of them to be together, she wondered if she would regret her actions at that time.
"Sister, I know you're worried about me, but Zhao Wenwen doesn't need it at all. He took a stake in a studio when he was a freshman, and he doesn't lack the means to make money. After a few years, there will be several million if there is no 1000 million. I'm still a high-ranking man!"
"What?" Li Yuehua was obviously taken aback by Xia Ran's words, "Zhao Wenwen is so powerful?"
Xia Ran was dumbfounded by the situation of the three trials at home, and also a little nervous, wondering if Xu Nuo would be able to handle it later.
Xia Ran opened the door, and as expected, she saw Xu Nuo holding two hands full of gift boxes outside the door. They looked at each other, and she clearly saw the anxiety and nervousness in his eyes.
"slowly……"
Xia Ran gave him a comforting look, but inexplicably gave him a bad feeling.
