no wind in the valley

After get off work in the afternoon, Shi Yan cheerfully waited downstairs in Zhou Qiyao's company.

When Zhou Qiyao came out, she saw the person whose face was flushed by the wind, and ran over quickly: "Aren't you stupid, don't wait in the car in such a cold day." She put her hand on Shi Yan's face, helping her to cool down slowly.

Shi Yan said it doesn't matter, he is in a good mood today.

Sitting in the car, Zhou Qiyao asked, "What makes you so happy?"

Shi Yan: "Today, everyone in our department is envious of me having a girlfriend, and even said they want me, a person who has a partner, to treat their single dogs."

Zhou Qiyao was also very happy when she saw her beaming and talking about what happened in the department today.

What is happening now is beyond people's expectations. There are no twists and turns when I was young, and it is easy for everyone to accept.Such a comparison must have pleased Shi Yan a lot.

"When are you going to invite them to dinner?"

Shi Yan said: "After meeting my family, it will be their turn." After a while, he said, "Li Ran and the others still want to meet with us, do you want to meet?"

Zhou Qiyao patted her on the head, "What do you think?" It's still possible to see, those things disappeared long after the two of them got together again.

---

Shi Yan told Zhou Qiyao that her aunts and people from the younger generation would go to see the prospective daughter-in-law this time.

Zhou Qiyao has been in the business world for so many years, but she was never as nervous as hearing the news from Shi Yan.

Nervous enough to sleepless nights.

Seeing the sleeping person next to her, Zhou Qiyao wanted to slap her awake.

Tossing and turning, finally waking up the sleeping person, Shi Yan squinted his eyes and stretched out his hand to hook her waist and pull her closer to him: "Why did you wake up?"

"I didn't even fall asleep."

Shi Yan: "Why can't I fall asleep again?"

Zhou Qiyao: ""

"I am nervous."

Shi Yan mumbled "Hmm..." for a while, and after a while, he realized what Zhou Qiyao was talking about being nervous, and the drowsiness was also driven away.

"They are all the people who took you to my house for the New Year. You have met them once. Why are you nervous this time?" Shi Yan hugged him tightly, "Go to sleep and close your eyes, don't you have an important event tomorrow?" Yes, if you don’t sleep, you won’t be able to improve your spirit tomorrow.”

Only now did Zhou Qiyao understand Shi Yan's inner activities some time ago, and she really felt uneasy.

Because Shi Yan has many younger brothers and sisters, and Shi Yan said that the relationship between the family is usually very good. It is because he has become a little cold after going abroad, but there are still many years of indelible feelings.

So, taking advantage of Shi Yan's afternoon rest after working the night shift, Zhou Qiyao let Shi Yan rest so that he could go shopping with her to see what to buy.

Shi Yan slept for a few hours, full of energy, and went out with Zhou Qiyao.

"How old are your younger brothers and sisters?" Zhou Qiyao asked while shopping, looking at what he could buy for them.

Shi Yan said: "You met Liu Yue before, who is a senior this year. The remaining one is high school, two junior high schools, one elementary school, and one kindergarten."

Zhou Qiyao was amazed at how her younger brothers and sisters span such a wide gap, and the distribution even took up the nine-year compulsory education.

Shi Yan rubbed her face: "I haven't seen them for a long time. I met my grandparents and parents when I came back from abroad. My aunt and uncle moved to other places when their business grew in the back of Beicheng. Except for the frequent contacts with Liu Yue, the rest of the people probably forgot about my sister."

He also jokingly said: "They may be thinking, 'Hey, why does this unfamiliar sister bring a strange woman home and let them call her sister-in-law' hahaha." The more Shi Yan thought about it, the more funny he was. He laughed a little and lost his image.

"Don't laugh, why are you still the same as in high school?" Zhou Qiyao was talking about the time when Shi Yan often lost his image during his third year of high school.

The two of them spent most of the afternoon in the mall, and when they walked out of the mall, all four hands were full of shopping bags.

Considering that Zhou Qiyao's arms were misaligned before, and she couldn't keep carrying heavy objects, Shi Yan helped her share part of it.

Finally, when the day came to return to Nancheng, the two of them packed up and drove on the road early in the morning.

Shi Yan didn't stop on the phone all the way, it was the people over there calling to ask where he was.

Shi Yan joked: "I don't think they are anxious for me to go back, but want me to bring people home as soon as possible."

"It doesn't matter if you slow down, I can't jump out of the car and run away." Zhou Qiyao actually thought in his heart: Slow down so that he can think more about the meeting words.I have imagined what I would say when I saw the whole family no less than a hundred times.

However, the reality is cruel.

The two went downstairs to their grandparents' unit.

Liu Yue was waiting below, seeing the things the two were carrying, she ran over to take the things from Zhou Qiyao with winks, but she didn't care what Shi Yan was carrying.

Liu Yue was full of smiles: "Sister Zhou! I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are getting more and more charming."

Zhou Qiyao also laughed and praised her for being so energetic all the time.Shi Yan next to him was carrying a bunch of things, and he secretly scolded this guy for not knowing how to carry things for her elder sister. After all, you and I haven't seen each other for more than seven years.

After the two people had finished exchanging compliments, Liu Yue looked at his elder sister: "My elder sister's hairstyle is in the Jianghu style."

What Jianghu, Liu Yue's inner meaning is: beggar gang style.

Even though he was holding things in his hands, but still had legs, Shi Yan kicked her on the buttocks, "Shut up if you can't speak."

With Liu Yue picking him up, and even fighting with Shi Yan, he felt less nervous.When I took the elevator to the floor, I saw the door was open, and a child was still watching the wind at the door.Seeing the three of them coming up, he ran in: "Sisters are here!"

Zhou Qiyao was so frightened by the cry that she subconsciously hugged Shi Yan's arm, and Shi Yan turned her head and whispered comfort in her ear: "I'm here, don't be afraid."

Liu Yue from behind looked at it and got goosebumps all over her body.

It was like this seven years ago, and it's still the same seven years later, I'm still the biggest light bulb.

Taking Zhou Qiyao to the door, he saw a group of people in the house standing up and rushing.

Rao is the best preparation, Zhou Qiyao was also frightened by this posture.

Shi Yan handed the gift in his hand to his grown-up brother Li Cheng: "This is what your sister Zhou bought for you."

Li Cheng took it and called Sister Zhou and ran to the back.

Shi Yan was about to hold Zhou Qiyao's hand, but his grandmother beat him to it.

Grandma grabbed Zhou Qiyao's hand and walked into the living room: "Oh, why is this hand so cold? The heater is not turned on in the car." After speaking, she looked back at Shi Yan and complained that she was freezing to Zhou Qiyao.

Only then did Zhou Qiyao speak the first sentence when entering the room: "Grandma Yanyan was talking all the way, it's because I feel cold."

Seeing her grandpa looking at her with a smile on her face, Zhou Qiyao called out sweetly, "Grandpa."

Grandpa smiled and told her to sit down quickly.

Other people also surrounded him, including Shi Yan.

Shi Yan could see Zhou Qiyao's uneasiness and nervousness, so he walked up to her and introduced her family one by one.

The aunt saw that she wanted to introduce: "I have met before, and I know everyone."

Zhou Qiyao was afraid that everyone would misunderstand that she would forget, so she quickly said: "My aunts have not changed, they are still as young and good-looking as the first time I met."

When Zhou Qiyao said this, the aunts all smiled.

Shi Yan looked around but didn't see his parents.

The sister-in-law said: "They will be here soon, it just so happens that both of them have a meeting today." She explained for Shi Ting and Li Ying.

Shi Yan nodded, no longer thinking about it.

There are many people, the house looks crowded, and there are children who can't help but be curious and run around to look around.

Shi Yan beckoned those little guys over: "Yun Duo was only born when I left, and they are all in elementary school now."

Yun Duo is a child of my uncle's family, "Does Yun Duo know who I am?" Shi Yan asked Yun Duo who had just come to see her.

Yun Duo was a little shy, biting her lower lip and not speaking.

"Oh, I don't know, I can't give you the bracelet I bought for you." Shi Yan said deliberately.

Yun Duo blushed even more at Shi Yan's words, Zhou Qiyao secretly pinched Shi Yan and told her to stop teasing children.

Zhou Qiyao pulled Yun Duo to her side, "Don't listen to her, what I bought for you is yours."

Only now did Zhou Qiyao realize that the things she bought hadn't been shared with everyone yet.

Get up and go with Shi Yan to get the things, and share them with everyone.

"Grandpa and grandma, here are medicinal wine and donkey-hide gelatin for you...This is a coat for grandpa...Grandma bought you a pendant...Auntie this...Second aunt...Sister-in-law...Uncle and aunt..." Zhou Qiyao shared , Shi Yan didn't have a place to intervene, she said everything herself, and she stood beside her as a mascot.

She thought about it, the same goes for going to Zhou Qiyao's house by herself.

The adults on Zhou Qiyao's side have finished their assignments, and the younger generation next to them are waiting.Seeing how many words she had said, Shi Yan poured her a glass of water, "Drink and moisturize."

Those of the same generation didn't need Zhou Qiyao to say nice things, Shi Yan asked them to come over and introduce to Zhou Qiyao. At that time, these guys were young, but now they have changed a lot.

"Come on, Liu Yue, the notebook your sister Zhou gave you...Li Cheng, considering you are in high school, your sister Zhou gave you a tablet..."

"Yaoyao, this is Yoyo and Yangyang. They were still young at that time and are now in junior high school." Shi Yan said.

Zhou Qiyao smiled and rolled her eyes: "I played with you back then, do you remember?"

The two of them thought for a while and shook their heads.

Zhou Qiyao said it's okay, "We will get to know each other better in the future. My sister Yanyan and I gave you the bearbrick figurine. I heard that you like it very much."

Yoyo and Yangyang happily hugged the figures to thank Zhou Qiyao.

The bracelets were prepared for Yunduo and Guoli, and the two little guys ran to show them to their mother with them bouncing around.

It's been a long time since grandma saw the family so happy.

"Yaoyao, Yanyan's uncles have something to do, we will meet again after the Chinese New Year." Grandma said, telling her not to be offended.

Zhou Qiyao said that there is nothing wrong, after all, everyone is very busy at the end of the year.

While chatting, there was a knock on the door.

Yun Duo ran to open the door.

Shi Yan knew that his parents were here.

When Zhou Qiyao saw the person coming in, she stood up subconsciously, Shi Yan tilted her head: she is too proficient in this conditioned reflex.But still stood up.

"Mom and Dad, you're here." Shi Yan said, subconsciously holding Zhou Qiyao's hand.

Zhou Qiyao then said, "Uncle, Auntie, hello."

Shi Ting nodded, "Hello, I am good, your auntie hospital has something to do with you, don't be offended."

Hearing that her father ignored her and instead explained to Zhou Qiyao, the big stone in her heart also fell.This is acceptance of them.

Li Ying came over to look at Zhou Qiyao, put her hands on her shoulders, "Sit down, don't stand." Then she looked at her grandparents, "Mom and Dad, it's late, so everyone has to wait."

Shi Yan, who was holding Zhou Qiyao's hand, felt that her hand was sweating just now, "Did you feel scared just now?" Shi Yan whispered to Zhou Qiyao while everyone was not paying attention.

Zhou Qiyao saw that everyone was not paying attention to her, then she turned her head and said, "A little bit."

Although everyone didn't look at those two people blatantly, they all observed from the corner of their eyes.

Seeing the way the two of them bit their ears greasy and crooked, they both feel that young people like to cling to each other now.

Seeing that it was getting late, Grandpa coughed lightly, and told the young couple not to get bored, "It's time for us to have lunch."

Because there were too many people, I stopped cooking at home and booked a place in a farmhouse.

Both could see that the two of them needed their own independent space, and both consciously and winkingly didn't get into her car to give them a small space.

Zhou Qiyao breathed a sigh of relief in the car, "This is the end of my tribulation."

Shi Yan rubbed her face: "Yes, Shangxian."

The atmosphere at the dinner table has always been very active. Shi Ting didn't know if it was because he accepted the child's love, the more he looked at Zhou Qiyao, the more pleasing and prettier he looked.He also spent a while at the dinner table and dragged Zhou Qiyao to drink a lot.

When it was time to go, Shiting had already drunk and couldn't tell the difference, Li Ying pinched his ear: "People who don't usually drink alcohol, drinking so much at once will not be afraid of being poisoned."

Zhou Qiyao was also dazed by Shi Yan's arms, and kept touching Shi Yan's body.

Shi Yan looked around in a panic, "It's outside, let's talk about it when we get home."

"I'm very happy today! I've been recognized!" Zhou Qiyao hooked Shi Yan's neck and carried it to her body.

"Hey...Hold on tight, I'm about to be choked by you."

Liu Yue and Li Cheng were close to the two of them, witnessed everything, looked at each other, then got together and took out their mobile phones to pretend to watch.Why is this young couple's style of painting like this?

"Be obedient, let's put the old man in the car first, and then we'll go home." Zhou Qiyao finally let go of the neighbor, and Shi Yan was able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhou Qiyao: "Which home?"

"My home over here, the one I took you to in high school."

Zhou Qiyao nodded, obediently followed Shi Yan and said goodbye to her grandparents.

Grandpa got into his uncle's car with a cane, but grandma didn't go up. She touched Zhou Qiyao's rosy face from drinking too much and said, "Go back and get her some hangover soup. If you don't feel well tomorrow, don't come to me. Go back to work after you have a rest." Bar."

Although Zhou Qiyao drank a lot, she couldn't lose her etiquette: "Grandma, it's windy outside, sit in the car first."

Grandma got into the car, and Zhou Qiyao explained that she would go to chat with her after waking up and having breakfast tomorrow.

Shi Yan saw that his aunts had also left, so he let Shi Ting and Li Ying get into his car.

"Mom, let's go back in my car first, I don't feel at ease if you drive back alone because Dad drinks a lot," Shi Yan said.

Li Ying hesitated: "I'm sitting in the car with your dad, I'm afraid you two won't be able to let go."

Shi Yan smiled: "I will often meet with Yaoyao in the future, how can you have things that you can't let go of when we are together? We will be a family."

Li Ying thought, that's right, and dragged Shi Ting into the car.

.........

When they arrived at the parking lot of the complex, Shi Yan took the suitcase from the trunk and went to help Li Ying help the Shi Hall.

Li Ying waved her hand: "Yaoyao also drank a lot, you go and support her a bit, your father and I can help her walk."

Shi Yan whispered to Zhou Qiyao: "I found that my mother is quite caring about you. Usually my mother will let me go. If I drink too much, I can go back by myself."

"Nonsense, how many times can you drink in front of your mother." Knowing that she hasn't come back for seven years, how can Li Ying see her drinking abroad.She was a high school student here before, so if she drinks, can't she be beaten?

"Isn't this an analogy?"

At home, Li Ying moved a quilt to Shi Yan's bed.

"The guest room hasn't been cleaned, so you just make do with her and sleep with her for the night." Li Ying didn't know that they were living together, and she was apologetic when she said it.

Zhou Qiyao also pretended to be embarrassed, "Auntie is fine, and it is warm for the two of us to sleep in winter now."

"Then you two go to bed early, don't make trouble too late." She came from here, so she went to take care of the drunk man without disturbing them.

Zhou Qiyao always felt that Li Ying's smile when she went out and closed the door had some other meaning, so she hugged Shi Yan before she thought about it.

"My mother told us to go to bed early and save some time to take a shower together..."

In the bathroom, Zhou Qiyao understood what Li Ying's smile meant...
