Two days later. Beijing.
On the fifth day of Lunar New Year, the streets were filled with the sound of firecrackers.
Dong Xuebing and Xie Huilan had planned to return to Beijing on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and they will be going back to work on the seventh day. But today is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and it is an important day. After some discussion, they decided to return a day earlier to have a reunion with their families. Dong Xuebing, Xie Huilan, and Xie Huilan alighted from the plane, and a Buick MPV is waiting for them.
Xie Hao boarded the car happily. "Ah … Beijing is still better. The air is too humid there!"
Dong Xuebing helped Xie Huilan into the car. "Where are we going? Are we going to our mother's place or Senior Feng's place? "
"Let's go to Senior Feng's place." Xie Huilan sat on the leather seat. "Everyone is here, and my mother had called to inform us that the dumplings are ready. Haha … they are just waiting for us."
Xie Jing laughed. "Aunt's dumplings are my favorite."
Xie Ran laughed. "Me too. I had been eating in T Wan City for a few days, and I am not used to it."
"Let's go!" Xie Hao shouted. "Let's go for dumplings! Hahaha! "
Only Sun Kai cleared his throat. "Err … I think I will not be going."
Xie Jing lowered her head. "What do you mean?"
"Ah … no …" Sun Kai quickly explained. "I just think it is not suitable."
Xie Jing grabbed Dong Xuebing's arm and said. "Didn't we talk about this on the way? If you don't go, don't look for me in this lifetime! Get off the car now!"
Sun Kai replied with a bitter face. "Jing Jing, I … I will go, alright?"
Xie Jing snorted. "That's more like it." But Dong Xuebing can tell she is feeling uneasy.
Dong Xuebing looked at Xie Jing and Sun Kai and sighed in his heart. He does not have high hopes for Xie Jing and Sun Kai's relationship. It's not that Sun Kai is not a good person. After a few days of interaction, Dong Xuebing has a good impression of Sun Kai. He is an honest man and does not have any ulterior motives. But who are Xiao Jing's parents? Xie Guoliang is the First Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Finance and a Ministerial level leader. Xiao Jing's brother, Xiao Ran, is the Xie Family's third generation's top student. Sun Kai is only an English teacher and will be rejected if he visits them. That's why Dong Xuebing felt his family will not agree. Xie Huilan, Xiao Ran, and the rest should be thinking the same.
On the road.
Xie Jing avoided the chauffeur and asked nervously, "Sis, do you think my parents will agree to this?"
Xie Huilan smiles. "Haha … what do you want me to agree to?"
"It's about me and Sun Kai." Xie Jing seemed to like Sun Kai.
Xie Huilan shook her head. "I don't know. Don't ask me."
Xie Jing smacked her lips and looked at Xie Ran. "Brother, what do you think? Do you think there is a chance? "
Before Xie Ran said anything, Xie Hao laughed. "I think there is a chance. So what if Brother Sun does not have any background? My Brother Dong also does not have any background in the past, but he still married my Eldest Sister. "
Xie Jing did not feel comforted by Xie Hao's words.
Xie Ran let out a bitter laugh and didn't say anything.
All of them knew Dong Xuebing and Sun Kai's situation cannot be compared. That's right. Their brother-in-law might not have any background, but he is very capable. Dong Xuebing can solve any problem that comes his way. That's why even if their brother-in-law's family background is average, and he is much younger than their eldest sister, and his looks are average, Sun Kai cannot be compared to him. That's why they can't compare him to Dong Xuebing in the past.
Xie Jing was feeling uneasy when she arrived at Xishan Villa.
Sun Kai shuddered when he saw the guards at the entrance, and his expression became even more uneasy.
Xie Jing ignored them and passed a few things she brought back from T Bay to Sun Kai. "Don't forget to greet your elders when you meet them later."
Sun Kai nodded and walked stiffly.
Everyone had entered the villa, and the elders are chatting in the living room.
Han Jing saw Dong Xuebing and Dong Xuebing, and stood up. "You are all back? How was your stay? "
Dong Xuebing laughed. "Not bad. The scenery there is beautiful. Thank you, Dad, Mom."
"Why are you thanking us?" Han Jing patted Dong Xuebing's hand. "We had booked the plane tickets and hotel rooms for you all. This is what I should do."
Xie Guobang, who was drinking tea, looked over. "How is Huilan?"
"Huilan is fine. She just has no appetite sometimes." Dong Xuebing smiled and patted Huilan's tummy.
"I still feel nauseous and feel like vomiting. Haha … Xiao Bing, help me sit down first. I am tired."
Dong Xuebing helped her to sit on the sofa and points at her. He smiled at Madam Han and the rest. "Look at her. She had been ordering me around for the past month. She had to serve me tea and even carry me up the stairs. I am exhausted."
Han Jing gave her a stare and laughed. "She is only two months pregnant, and she is not so delicate. I'm telling you not to order Xiao Bing around. "
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and stared at Dong Xuebing. "Fine. You are telling on me, right?"
Everyone laughed.
Xie Huilan is the Xie Family's baby now, and it doesn't matter if she is pregnant with a boy or a girl. That's why even Senior Xie doesn't dare to disrespect Xie Huilan. He is looking forward to the birth of his child, let alone the rest. Xie Huilan's Uncle, Second Uncle, and the rest greeted Xie Huilan warmly and asked her about their trip to T Bay.
Suddenly, Xie Jing and Sun Kai appeared from behind.
Everyone turned to look at them, and Xie Jing blushed.
But she still introduced them to Sun Kai. "This is my Uncle and Aunty. These are my parents, and this is my Second Uncle and Second Aunt."
Sun Kai quickly greeted them and put down his things. "Happy Lunar New Year."
Xie Jing looked at their expressions and continued. "This is my friend, Sun Kai."
Xie Jing's mother, Xia Yanzhen, didn't say anything and only glanced at them indifferently. Xie Jing's father, Xie Guoliang, didn't look too happy, but he wasn't surprised by Sun Kai's arrival. It was as if he already knew that Xie Jing had a teacher boyfriend.
The atmosphere was awkward.
Xie Guoliang ignored them, and Xie Jing and Sun Kai did not know what to do.
At this moment, Han Jing appeared and smiled. "Little Sun, right? Thank you. You don't need to bring gifts. Come in and have a seat. "
Finally, someone came to their rescue. Xie Jing looked at Han Jing gratefully.
Madam Han is the Eldest Sister-in-law, and since she had spoken, Xie Guoliang and the rest can't say anything.
Senior Xie came downstairs, and Han Jing and Xia Yanzhen quickly go over to help him up.
But Senior Xie waved his hand. "I am feeling well these few days. I can walk by myself. Hahaha … Huilan, you are back? Come over here! Let me see if you have tanned. "
Xie Huilan laughed. "Happy New Year, Senior Xie."
Han Jing grumbled. "Why are you calling me Senior Xie again? Don't be rude. "
"Haha … it's fine. She can call me whatever she wants!" Senior Xie looked at Xie Huilan and nodded. "Good! You look good!"
Xie Hao snorted. "Grandfather is being biased again. Why didn't you ask me first?"
Senior Xie stared at Dong Xuebing. "What's there to ask? You don't need to worry about eating, drinking, and playing! "
Xie Hao almost fainted. "Who is eating and drinking? Huh? But I am really hungry. Where are the dumplings? Where are the dumplings? "
Han Jing laughed and patted Xie Hao's head. "This silly child … Haha … wait for me. I will go and make the dumplings for you all. They are ready to be cooked."
Senior Xie replied. "Just ask the helpers to do it."
Han Jing smiled. "It's fine. Let me cook." Dong Xuebing replied.
Dong Xuebing immediately said. "Mum, let me help you."
Xia Yanzhen and Ci Lifen also said. "Sister-in-law, let's go."
Han Jing waved her hand. "You all had just arrived and are not seated yet. The two of us will go first." After saying that, Han Jing pulled Dong Xuebing's arm and left.
Kitchen.
Han Jing was making dumplings and asked. "How is Xiao Sun?"
The Xie Family is a whole and cannot be separated. That's why Han Jing has to worry about Xie Jing's relationship and marriage.
Dong Xuebing thought for a while and said. "Xiao Sun is not bad. He is an honest man and seems like a decent person."
Han Jing nodded and shook her head. "I can tell Guoliang and Yanzhen don't like him. Huilan and Xiao Ran also don't like him. I don't think it will work out. "
Dong Xuebing nodded. "That's right."
"Let's not talk about this. When are you and Huilan going back to Fen Zhou?"
"We are going back tomorrow morning to visit my mother in Lui An City."
"You did not spend much time with your mother, right? Go back early and let Huilan accompany you. "" No need.
Huilan had not come back for a few days, and she can accompany you and my father. Lui An is not far from Fen Zhou, and it's convenient for Huilan to go there whenever she wants. We will reach there in half an hour by car. "
"Alright."
A pot of dumplings was ready.
Han Jing continued to put the dumplings into the pot, and Dong Xuebing carried the steaming dumplings out.
When Dong Xuebing walked past the corridor, he heard Xie Guoliang and Xie Jing shouting. He walked further and saw Xie Jing walking away with red eyes. She seems to have cried, and Xie Guoliang is the only one left in the corridor, sulking.
"Uncle." There is only one corridor in front, and Dong Xuebing cannot avoid them.
Xie Guoliang turned to look at Dong Xuebing and sighed. "Xiao Jing is too stubborn."
Dong Xuebing knew it might be because of Sun Kai and did not interrupt.
Xie Guoliang patted Dong Xuebing's shoulder. "Let's go for lunch first."
During lunch, Xie Jing and Sun Kai were ignored. Dong Xuebing and Xie Hao still chatted with them occasionally, but other than Han Jing, the rest of the elders did not speak to Sun Kai.
As they ate, Xie Jing felt wronged, and her tears fell into her bowl.
