According to the traditional customs of China, the young couple should go to the man's house to "keep vigil" on Chinese New Year's Eve and have a reunion dinner with the man's family. However, with the increase of single-child families, facing four old people, who should they go to on Chinese New Year's Eve became one of the biggest headaches for the young couple.
In the early 1980s, with the vigorous implementation of family planning, the original prenatal and prenatal education became a family with only a little emperor and a little princess. As this batch of post-80s and post-90s gradually grew up, when they reached the age of marriage and children, problems arose.
The original situation was that the woman went to the man's house to celebrate Chinese New Year. It was fine because there was more than one child in the family. If the daughter left, there was still a son. But now it was different. If the daughter left, then there was no son!
Therefore, Mother Yang was also very worried about this problem. The Chen Family only had one daughter. If she was not at home during Chinese New Year, how bad would it be?
"Then … I will ask later …" Although Chen Mengyan also felt that it was inappropriate for her to leave her parents and go to Yang Ming's house for Chinese New Year, from another point of view, this was also a good thing. At least it proved her position in the Yang Family. It also proved that she was recognized by Yang Ming's parents. Therefore, Chen Mengyan still wanted to go.
"Well, I won't talk to you anymore. I will call Big Ming for you …" Mother Yang said with a smile and decided to leave the space to the two children.
"Okay …" Chen Mengyan said with some shyness.
"Big Ming, come and answer the phone." Mother Yang shouted at Yang Ming's room.
"Looking for me?" Yang Ming came out of the room. "Mom, who called?"
"Mengyan. I told her to come to our house on Chinese New Year's Eve. You should discuss with her and see what to do. I am afraid that her parents won't agree." Mother Yang said.
"Mengyan?" Yang Ming was slightly stunned. Chen Mengyan actually took the initiative to call him? If she didn't call, he would have called her. After all, it had been a cold war for several days. The Chinese New Year was coming soon. He had to give Uncle Chen a New Year's greeting.
"Okay, I got it." Yang Ming immediately returned to normal. He nodded and picked up the phone. "Hello, wife …"
"Ugh …" Chen Mengyan was a little embarrassed by Yang Ming. She knew that Yang Ming's mother must be next to the phone now. Yang Ming actually called her "wife" so casually. Chen Mengyan was so shy that her face was almost dripping water was dripping... Yang Ming actually called her "wife............
...............................
"Since when …" Chen Mengyan defended herself.
...... ................... .........................
Don't talk nonsense. If your mother heard it, she would have some thoughts. Aren't you harming me? "Chen Mengyan reprimanded.
"Hehe, my mother is watching TV. It's fine …" Yang Ming winked at his mother who was staring at him.
He didn't expect his mother to say loudly, "Yes, I am watching TV!"
"Ah!" Chen Mengyan was stunned and shocked. "Give the phone to your mother. I will explain to her …"
"Hehe, I'm kidding. How would my mother believe it?" Yang Ming shook his head. "You are nervous. Why do you care so much about my mother's opinion?"
"Nonsense …" Chen Mengyan snorted. "You set a trap for me."
"Hehe, let's not talk about this. I heard from my mother that you are coming to my house for Chinese New Year's Eve?" Yang Ming asked.
"Do you want me to go …?" Chen Mengyan didn't answer but asked.
"Hehe, of course, I am …" Yang Ming deliberately paused as he spoke until here. He heard Chen Mengyan's breathing become rapid.
"You prodigal child!" Yang Ming snickered. Suddenly, he was slapped on the head. When he turned around, he found that his mother was glaring at him. "Why do you always scare Chen Mengyan? Do you have nothing better to do? "
Yang Ming sweated … It turned out that his mother had been paying attention to his every move. Especially since the volume of the phone in Yang Ming's house was relatively high, his mother wasn't far away. She should be able to hear it.
"Hehe …" Chen Mengyan heard Mother Yang's voice and immediately snickered.
"Still laughing …" However, Yang Ming looked at his mother's raised hand and had to stop temporarily. "Mengyan, why don't I go to your house tomorrow and discuss it with your parents?"
"That's fine. It's Chinese New Year tomorrow!" Chen Mengyan said happily, "Then I will talk to my parents later."
"Hehe, not angry anymore?" Yang Ming suddenly asked.
"Angry … why would I be angry?" Chen Mengyan's tone was sluggish as she said with some embarrassment.
"What do you think?" Yang Ming smiled.
"Zhou Jiajia … came to find me …" Chen Mengyan hesitated and said.
"What? She went to find you? Why did she look for you? "Yang Ming couldn't help but frown." She didn't say anything bad about me, right? "
"Don't worry … Zhou Jiajia is very good. That matter, she explained it to me …" Chen Mengyan said.
"She is very good?" Yang Ming was stunned. He didn't expect that Chen Mengyan, who was so jealous, would actually praise Zhou Jiajia as a good person. It seems that this chick has a lot of means!
"Yeah, what do you think of her?" Chen Mengyan didn't know why she suddenly asked such a question.
"Forget it. Let's not talk about her …" Yang Ming wasn't interested and directly cut off this topic.
"But she …" Chen Mengyan wanted to say something but stopped. However, when she saw that Yang Ming didn't like Zhou Jiajia at all, she had to give up. She didn't know if she should be happy or sad …
"Right, Mengyan, is Uncle Chen there? You ask him to answer the phone. I want to give him a New Year's greeting. "Yang Ming said.
"En, he is there. You wait." Chen Mengyan said.
After a while, the voice on the other side of the phone was replaced by Chen Fei's voice. "Yang Ming, are you looking for me?"
"Uncle Chen, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve. I want to give you a New Year's greeting in advance!" Yang Ming repeated the words that Chen Mengyan said to his mother before.
"Hehe, thank you! Right, I'm not very busy these days. When will you come over? "Chen Fei smiled.
"Just now, I was talking about this with Mengyan. Is tomorrow okay?" Yang Ming asked, "I won't disturb your Chinese New Year's Eve, right?"
"Tomorrow? That's great! "Chen Fei said," Then let's do it tomorrow! What's there to disturb? It's more lively when you come! "
"That's fine. Then I will go!" Yang Ming smiled.
"Let your auntie make something delicious for you. What do you want to eat?" asked Chen Fei.
"I'm not picky. It doesn't matter." Yang Ming said quickly, "You do what you want to do. Don't worry about me."
"Well, I'll let her do as she sees fit." Chen Fei said, "Then it's settled. Let's make a deal. If you don't come by then, my preparation will be in vain!"
"I won't. You can rest assured, Uncle Chen." Yang Ming thought, Last time, you were the one who missed the appointment, right? However, Yang Ming definitely wouldn't say this out loud. Chen Fei was his elder!
"Then you talk to Mengyan." As Chen Fei said this, he handed the phone to Chen Mengyan.
"Yang Ming …" Chen Mengyan picked up the phone.
"En, right, do you have anything tomorrow?" asked Yang Ming.
"Tomorrow? I don't have anything. What's wrong? "asked Chen Mengyan.
"I didn't manage to go to your house the last time. Tomorrow is my first visit. Besides, tomorrow is a festival. I can't go empty-handed, right? Let's go out and buy some gifts. "Yang Ming said.
"Alright, then let's go out together tomorrow." Chen Mengyan nodded and said, "But what should we buy?"
"It's Chinese New Year. Should we buy a sweater for each of your parents?" Yang Ming suggested.
"That's fine too. I will look at the size of what they are wearing later." Chen Mengyan also thought that this idea was very good.
In the evening, Yang Ming was called to the sofa in the living room by his parents.
"Big Ming, tell mom the truth. How far have you and Mengyan developed?" asked Mother Yang.
"Ah?" Yang Ming was stunned. He stuttered and replied, "Mom … why are you asking this?"
"As a mother, I naturally have to understand my son's movements at all times!" Mother Yang said seriously.
"This is private … so don't ask …" Yang Ming said with some embarrassment.
"Private? Do you still have privacy? "Mother Yang said unhappily," You are a piece of meat that fell from your mother's body. What privacy is there? "
Yang Ming broke into a sweat. Look, this is the typical mindset of many parents. They don't value the privacy of their children.
"Mom … why are you asking this …" Yang Ming was really a little embarrassed.
"Of course, it is useful!" Mother Yang said seriously, "This is very important! If you and Mengyan already have that kind of relationship, then everything will be easy! If not, then it will be a bit troublesome … "
