When Mother Qin spoke to Gu Yusheng again, her tone was obviously much more relaxed.
Mother Qin's education was not high, and she was not very knowledgeable. She only chatted with Gu Yusheng about trivial matters, but Gu Yusheng did not show the slightest bit of impatience. Even when it came to topics such as the price of eggs, he would accompany her in detail.
The more they talked, the more satisfied Mother Qin became. In the end, she could not help but secretly praise Gu Yusheng's family for raising such a good son.
…
After dinner, while Mother Qin and Qin Zhi 'ai washed the dishes in the kitchen, Gu Yusheng went to the corridor and lit a cigarette.
Halfway through, he remembered that Mother Qin had mistaken her future son-in-law for Xiaowang at the beginning of the meal. Could it be that Xiaowang was more pleasing to the eye than Mother Qin?
Gu Yusheng leaned against the wall with a cigarette in his mouth. As he was thinking about how to make Mother Qin favor him more than Xiaowang, his eyes inadvertently swept over the electric meter on the opposite wall.
Gu Yusheng paused in the middle of puffing out the cigarette. He then rolled his eyes and walked to the electric meter. After looking around, he found the electric meter in Qin Zhi 'ai's apartment and, without hesitation, cut the fuse.
The door behind him was half-open, and it was suddenly pitch-black.
Mother Qin's voice followed. "Why is there no electricity?"
Gu Yusheng put out the cigarette between his fingers and quickly stepped into the apartment. "Is it out of electricity?"
"That shouldn't be. I just paid the electricity a few days ago …" Mother Qin said as she took a flashlight and searched for the electric card in the cabinet.
She inserted the card into the electric meter, but the lights in the apartment still did not turn on.
"That's strange …" Mother Qin muttered, then turned to look at Qin Zhi 'ai. "Xiao' ai, call the property management and see if there's anyone on duty …"
"Auntie Qin, there's no need. I'll see what's going on." Gu Yusheng stopped Qin Zhi 'ai from making the call. With the help of the light in the corridor, he knew what the problem was, but he still studied it seriously for a while before he turned around and said, "The fuse blew."
After a pause, Gu Yusheng asked politely, "Auntie Qin, do you have a spare fuse?"
"Yes, I'll go get it," Mother Qin said as she turned around and went back into the house. Not long after, she came back with a new fuse.
Gu Yusheng took it, and under Mother Qin's watchful eyes, he swiftly replaced the fuse with a new one.
The lights in the room behind him lit up.
Mother Qin's face was full of smiles. "Little Gu, sorry for troubling you."
The corners of Gu Yusheng's mouth curled up slightly, and he replied shamelessly, "Auntie Qin, what are you talking about? This is what I should do."
When Mother Qin heard this, she couldn't stop smiling.
…
As the saying goes, "The more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him." By the end, Mother Qin's impression of Gu Yusheng was one hundred percent favorable.
Gu Yusheng, the son-in-law, had passed the test, so the next step was to toss out the bombshell that was little peanut!
Gu Yusheng did not dare to directly tell Mother Qin that she had a granddaughter who was more than a month old, so he deliberately beat around the bush. "Auntie Qin, Xiao 'ai and I are planning to hold our wedding next month. Do you have any problems with that?"
Mother Qin had always hoped that Qin Zhi 'ai would get married as soon as possible, and now that she was very satisfied with Gu Yusheng, she said without hesitation, "If Xiao' ai is fine with it, then I'm fine with it."
"Mother-in-law, there's one more thing. I've discussed it with Xiao 'ai, and we would like to bring you back to Beijing."
