For students at the University of Minnesota, today is the first day of vacation.

However, for office workers, the New Year's Day holiday has just passed and if they want to take a rest today, they need to ask for extra leave.

This is the case for the Xie family.

But there is no other way. Compared with the life-long events of my son, taking a day off for each of them is certainly not worth mentioning.

At 6:00 in the morning in the Imperial Capital, the streets were still filled with deep and shallow fog, and most of the green trees on both sides of the road were bare.

Without the indoor heating, it feels chilly to walk on the street, and I can see the white air in front of my eyes even when I say a word.

At this moment, the Xie couple closed the door quietly and walked out. They happened to encounter their neighbor who was wrapped in coral velvet pajamas and was about to buy groceries.

I was surprised when I saw the two of them.

"Hey, Yun Jing, don't you usually go to work at 9 o'clock? Why did you both come out so early this morning?"

Zhao Yunjing smiled: "It's a rare day off. If you have nothing to do, go to the vegetable market early to pick out some fresh vegetables."

Neighbor Sister Li was so happy that she quickly stepped down the steps and followed them.

"Don't you usually go to the supermarket more often? If you don't go to the vegetable market often, you definitely don't know which one sells good vegetables. Let's go around and I'll take you to pick out what you want to buy?"

"There was freshly killed black pork this morning. Last night I heard that your family Xie Yan came back and I couldn't buy him some ribs to stew."

This overly enthusiastic exchange of greetings made the Xie couple, who usually did not communicate much with their neighbors, feel a little embarrassed.

Xie’s mother, Zhao Yunjing, tried her best to smile and then said:

"Okay, then...thank you, Sister Li."

…

My son was so busy at work that he came back last night and said that his girlfriend was coming to visit today. Zhao Yunjing was so frightened that he didn't sleep well at night. When he checked in the refrigerator, he found nothing.

And many big dishes take time to prepare, so the couple can only get up early and go to the vegetable market to get ready for what needs to be prepared. Otherwise, when others come to the door, they will be tossing and turning in the kitchen, which is not a good time.

It’s the guest’s way.

At this moment, the three of them were walking on the road. Almost all the people they met in the community were acquaintances. Sister Li greeted them all the way, which was quite popular.

And when she left the community gate, she asked tentatively:

"Thank you, your family is about to graduate, right? Have you found an internship unit?"

Xie Father and Xie Guo smiled.

"My child is only a junior this year, but he has a good tutor and has already started his internship early."

Parents, no matter how restrained they are since ancient times, have always wanted to praise their children's merits over and over again. When Xie Guo said this now, he did not mean to show off a little.

However, he didn't understand the difference between men and women at all, which was the main point of Sister Li's initiative.

It was Zhao Yunjing's intuition as a woman. When she saw Sister Li's eyes lighting up, her heart skipped a beat.

--really.

Sister Li immediately laughed:

"Oh, it turns out that a tiger father has no dog son. Brother Xie, you are usually capable. Your son will be favored by the tutor at Mingda University, so you don't have to worry about his future at all."

"As soon as your child graduates and becomes an adult, you two should worry about his life events."

Zhao Yunjing smiled awkwardly and said quickly: "It's not the same as it was in the past. Major events in life don't happen in a hurry. It all depends on the children themselves. We don't have to worry about it."

"That's absolutely not okay!"

Sister Li absolutely cannot agree with this.

Regarding this topic, Sister Li, who has been among her peers all year round, has 11,000 different cases and opinions on the pros and cons for different groups of people:

"Children have just entered the society. How can you do it if you don't check them? You don't know that our imperial household registration is becoming more and more valuable now. There are many little girls from other places who like this kind of simple young people and want to live in peace.

An imperial household registration."

"You parents, please be careful."

Xie Guo laughed.

"What is the value of the imperial household registration? The main thing is the happiness of the children. As long as the children like it, it doesn't matter."

…

Sister Li looked at Xie Guo with a speechless expression, then turned around and patted Zhao Yunjing's arm:

"Yun Jing, Brother Xie is a man. It's not surprising that he has such thoughts. But you must pay attention."

"Think about it, those people who want to get the imperial capital's household registration are all from other places. They are all girls from other places! Maybe they are from the ravines in their hometown. Besides, even if they are not from the ravines, marrying to the imperial capital and living in the branches is considered a leap.

."

"In this case, why don't you recruit relatives and friends? There are seven aunts and eight aunts. I don't know how much trouble it will be when I get married."

These words made no sense, but they seemed to make sense. Zhao Yunjing thought of what Xie Yan said about his girlfriend. Even though he felt that these words were unbelievable, Zhao Yunjing couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.

--Yes.

Xie Yan said that his girlfriend is a very outstanding girl and she is also his school girl.

But he didn't say much about the situation at the other party's family. He came today and had to inquire carefully. If the family was unreasonable, they couldn't agree to it just like that.

…

In this regard, Zhao Yunjing obviously has his own ideas.

Although choosing a wife depends on the individual, you must also consider reality.

The relationship between parents cannot be separated. In this case, one will either consume one's energy day after day, or the opinions of some outsiders will be mixed into the marriage between the two.

Zhao Yunjing was deep in thought, while Sister Li talked so much, but finally returned to her focus——

"Your family, Xie Yan, hasn't dated anyone yet, right? Let me tell you, my niece is also a junior this year and is also studying in our imperial capital. She is a student of the School of Finance and Economics and Law, studying accounting there, and will be looking for a job after she comes out.

Steady and sure.”

"My mother-in-law, you can tell by looking at my character. My niece is also hard-working, delicate and obedient. I was also thinking that we have been neighbors for so many years, so I can help your family thank you."

Xie family couple:......

Sister Li, do you have too much trust in your own character?

…

But after hearing this, the couple didn't understand anything.

There is so much foreshadowing and it makes people feel anxious, but in the end the key point is this.

Not to mention that Xie Yan now has a girlfriend. Even if he didn't, she was only a junior in college. Parents would not take the initiative to discuss such things with him.

Moreover, the double standards mentioned by Sister Li just now are completely inconsistent with the values ​​​​of Xie Guo and Zhao Yunjing.

Zhao Yunjing smiled and declined: "Forget it, Sister Li, don't mention this matter, the child is still young."

"Not too young."

Sister Li refused to give up.

They have been neighbors for many years, but because one of them is sociable and both of them are at work, they don't communicate that much.

But for Sister Li, who is keen on socializing, there is too much information that she can obtain. Not to mention that the largest facade at the entrance of the community is Xie's house. Let's just say that their house is more than 140 square meters, which is far more than her own house of 80 square meters.

The house is much bigger.

The couple both have jobs, and their children are still students at the University of Ming Dynasty, so they have no worries about their future. He has also seen the young man, who is very lucky when he is fat and white.

With such a good condition, if we don’t take advantage of this moment to settle it quickly, we will still be waiting to take advantage of others.

Although my niece's family is not from the imperial capital, doesn't she still have a girl like her? Don't worry if she knows everything.

As a result, she became even more unwilling to give up:

"My child is a junior this year. Let's find someone to talk to slowly now. After graduation and a stable job, we can arrange to get married. My niece will give birth to a grandson for your old Xie family at home..."

The more he talks about it, the more absurd it becomes. His son is only a junior in college. Who wants a grandson?

Xie Guo quickly interrupted her:

"Sister Li."

"We didn't intend to get involved in the child's life-long events from the beginning. In fact, the reason why he came to buy groceries early today was because he wanted to bring his girlfriend to visit. That niece of yours, I think it is true

If there is no fate, we won’t mention this matter.”

The couple usually come into contact with high-level customers and company employees. How have they ever had a deep relationship with someone like Sister Li?

Now that they have talked about this, Sister Li is still persistent.

She was really enthusiastic. She did guide the couple to buy a lot of fresh meat and vegetables at the vegetable market, but she did not leave their side and asked about Xie Yan's girlfriend all the way.

As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person. At this moment, the couple looked at each other helplessly and decided to go back and close the door quickly.

——This is really difficult to resist.

It's better to argue with others in the company.
