Chapter 111: Mother-in-law's words

When Aunt Lei Ming said this, she became even happier. She grinned and said, "Xiaoxia, it's so wasteful. Why am I so embarrassed?"

Xiaoxia: "It's okay, aunt, it should be, it should be."

Aunt Lei said to Lei Ming beside her: "Where are you ready for a gift?"

Lei Ming: "Of course there is."

Lei Ming returned to his seat and hurriedly gave Xiaoxia's parents a gift.

Then Uncle Lei said: "Today is the engagement banquet for these two children. I didn't expect that my Xiao Lei will get married so soon. Although I don't know much about Xiao Xia, when I see this child today, I knew that my Xiao Lei did not choose the wrong person. From today on, Xiao Xia will also change her words. Stop calling her uncle and aunt anymore. It's time to call her parents."

Xiaoxia quickly stood up and said, "Dad, Mom."

Uncle Lei agreed with a smile, took out a red envelope from his pocket and said, "Xiaoxia, take it, this is for you."

Xiaoxia took the red envelope, and Lei Ming also walked to Xiaoxia's parents and said, "Uncle and aunt, from today on, I must change my words, hello dad and mom!"

Father Xia smiled and agreed while holding the red envelope.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of dishes, everyone chatted with each other. At this time, Aunt Lei picked up a chopstick dish for Xiaoxia and said, "Come on, Xiaoxia, try it, how does this dish taste like?"

Xiaoxia tasted it carefully and said, "Well, it's quite delicious."

Aunt Lei: "It's delicious, I think this dish is very good. Xiaoxia, since you call me mom, you're still relying on your age. If you don't like to listen to anything, don't mind."

Xiaoxia quickly said, "Mom, don't say that, you can say anything."

Lei Ming thought to himself: Oh, I really don’t know why my mother doesn’t like Xiaoxia so much, and I don’t know what she would say, so I had to adapt to the situation.

Aunt Lei looked at Xiaoxia carefully and said, "Xiaoxia is indeed a beauty. No wonder my family Mingming is so fascinated. But the fairy is a gift, and the beauty wants to live. In my impression, Xiaoxia seems to be not very good at cooking, and maybe she is not very capable of doing housework."

Xiaoxia said seriously: "I will learn it in the future."

Aunt Lei smiled and said, "That's good. You know that my family is very busy at work. Fortunately, the salary is also quite good, so it's absolutely fine to support a family. I have an idea, I don't know if you agree or not."

Xiaoxia nodded and said, "I agree, agree."

Aunt Lei: "It's good to agree. I think you couple will always have to take care of their family after they get married. After all, Mingming is a man and can make money to support the family. So I wonder if you can be a full-time housewife after marriage, which is more convenient for taking care of the family, right?"

Aunt Lei's words made Xiaoxia unexpected. Xiaoxia was a little stunned and didn't know how to answer. Lei Ming quickly said: "Mom, Xiaoxia is now the deputy director of the office and has his own career. Besides, Xiaoxia has always liked this job, so it's a bit difficult for you to do this."

Aunt Lei glared at Lei Ming and said, "I asked Xiaoxia, but I didn't ask you. Maybe Xiaoxia likes to be a full-time housewife? How great it is to be at home. You don't have to go out and show up, let alone those complicated personnel and relationships. Besides, Aunt Lei paused for a moment and said to Xiaoxia meaningfully: "I have always hoped that my daughter-in-law will be able to take care of her husband and children at home in the future. What do you think?"

Xiaoxia thought for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, I am willing. I will resign after marriage, and I will take good care of Lei Ming."

Aunt Lei laughed and said, "Good kid, so sensible, it really hurts people."

Xiaoxia's parents were a little unhappy, but seeing that their daughter had agreed, it was hard to say anything else.

Xiaoxia's family was indeed a little unhappy when the engagement banquet was originally a good one, but because Lei Ming felt sorry for Xiaoxia, it was not convenient to care too much about it.

On the contrary, Aunt Lei ate very satisfied, as if she didn't notice the emotions of the people around her at all.

Aunt Lei picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, opened her mouth and took a bite. Unexpectedly, the ribs slipped and fell onto the clothes. Aunt Lei quickly wiped them with a tissue on the table, muttering while saying, "Oh, I'm a new piece of clothing that I just got on my body, why did I fall off my ribs?"

Xiaoxia hurriedly stood up, walked to Aunt Lei, took out a tissue to help wipe it together, wiped it a few times, and the clothes were still stained. At this time, Aunt Lei raised her head, took a towel from the table, and handed it to Xiaoxia and said, "Xiaoxia, please help me go to the bathroom to wet the towel. I'll try to wipe it with a wet towel."

Xiaoxia took the towel and walked out the door. Aunt Lei did not forget to remind him: "Get wet a little, remember to use warm water."

Walking out of the room, passing through the long corridor, and then finding the bathroom around the corner. Xiaoxia lowered her head and turned on the faucet to test the temperature, then soaked the towel in the water. At this time, she heard someone coming in behind her, Xiaoxia ignored it and continued to soak the towel. Suddenly, a cold laugh, Xiaoxia felt creepy and couldn't help but look back. At this moment, a severe pain in her mind, and Xiaoxia fell to the ground randomly.

On this side, Aunt Lei was still wiping her clothes with a tissue. She raised her head and said to Xiaoxia's parents with a little embarrassed look: "Oh, this person is older, and his hands and feet are not as flexible as before. He just picked up a piece of ribs and fell off all of them. If I had known that I would not have eaten it, it would be a pity for my clothes."

Xia’s mother replied politely: “It doesn’t matter. When you go home, soak it in warm water first, and it may go down. In the past, Xiaoxia sometimes had stains on her clothes, so I would soak it first and then wash it, so it would be easier to wash it clean.”

Aunt Lei: "My mother-in-law can do it at first sight. No wonder Xiaoxia is so delicate. It turns out that she is so lucky."

Xia’s mother: “My Xiaoxia may be a little more spoiled, and we blame our parents for hoping that the child can have a bright future, so she is unwilling to let her do more housework. She wished she would spend all her energy on work and make a fuss. Xiaoxia herself is also a professionalism. I used to tell Xiaoxia that you don’t have to do anything when you go home. As long as you work hard, it will be the greatest reward for parents.”

Aunt Lei nodded in response and said, "Oh, that's it."

Xia’s mother: “Yes, we didn’t expect Xiaoxia to fall in love so soon. We are all about marriage. If we had known that Xiaoxia would get married immediately after graduation and would be a full-time housewife after marriage, we would not have so much energy to cultivate Xiaoxia. It would be better to train her to wash clothes and cook since she was a child.”

Aunt Lei listened to her speech becoming more and more wrong, and she immediately said, "Actually, she doesn't say that. If Xiaoxia was not so good at studying, she would definitely not have joined this company. Then she would not have met a husband as good as Mingming. If my parents-in-law thought about it this way, would she feel relieved? Besides, I also feel sorry for Xiaoxia. It's very hard for a girl to be busy with work after getting married. I'm doing it for her and for her."

In order to avoid the two of them having quarrels, Uncle Lei hurriedly said, "In-law, I heard from Xiao Lei that you play chess very well. We two must play two games well another day."

Xia’s father: “Okay, we will be more and more diligent in the future. Find a time to come to my house. I will prepare a pot of good tea and entertain the old brother.”

Uncle Lei continued: "When the two children get married, you will have more than one son and we will have more than one daughter. Now they are all only children. What do parents hope for? Even if they hope that the children will be good, it will be worth it in this life. Lei Ming's mother is also kind-hearted and discussing whether Xiaoxia can be a full-time housewife after marriage. We are all discussing. If you have any ideas, of course you have to listen to your ideas."

Aunt Lei turned around and glared at her husband. She was about to speak, but Uncle Lei ignored his wife at all and continued: "I just heard Xiaoxia's mother say that she knew that Xiaoxia is so career-oriented. It doesn't matter. If we want to work after marriage, we will definitely support it. As for housework, the elderly on both sides will help them, and gradually the children will be able to do it."

When Xia's father heard Lei Ming's father say this, he hurriedly said: "We all respect the child's meaning and respect the child's meaning."

At this time, Lei Ming looked outside the door and said anxiously: "Why haven't Xiaoxia come back yet? Why don't I go and have a look."

Aunt Lei, who was a little unhappy, curled her lips and said, "Xiaoxia is in the female bathroom, why are you going? Once you go in, they will treat you as a hooligan again!"

Aunt Lei touched her dirty hands and said, "I'll go and see if Xiaoxia is lost, otherwise she won't come back after so long."

This is Xia’s mother saying, “I’ll go.”

Aunt Lei said sarcastically: "No, don't, you must go. I asked Xiaoxia to help me wet the towel. She didn't come back for a long time, so of course I asked me to find it."

As he said that, Aunt Lei stood up, glared at her husband fiercely, and walked out twistingly.

As soon as he left the door, Uncle Lei hurriedly said, "I'm so embarrassed. My wife is just a little outspoken and says everything she wants. Don't take it seriously. In fact, she is a pretty good person. She's just this mouth. Don't be surprised by her."

Xia’s father hurriedly stated: “We are all a family in the future. Where can the family say two families? Lei Ming’s mother said that for Xiaoxia’s sake, and we won’t care. Oh, by the way, should we also order the wedding time of the two children?”

Uncle Lei: "Yes, yes, yes, we've been chatting and have forgotten this important thing. I heard from Xiao Lei that they both want to hold a wedding next year. First, they are ready and second, they can book a good hotel. What do you think?"

Xia’s father: “Okay, let’s decide next year. Let’s choose autumn. There is too much rain in summer. If you don’t choose a good day, it will be bad if you catch the rain. Spring is a bit cold and it’s easy to freeze in a wedding dress, so I want to sign in autumn.”

Uncle Lei: "Okay, we will make a preliminary reservation in September, and let the two children choose the specific date by themselves."

Xia’s mother said, “Do we need to find someone to choose auspicious day? Those sisters who have a good relationship with me on weekdays are invited to choose their children’s wedding days. This way, they are good to the young couple and can last for a long time.”
