Chapter 356: Meeting Parents During Chinese New Year(1/2)
As the Spring Festival approaches, Sanqingyuan gradually becomes empty.
During the day, there were only a few people eating in the restaurant.
At night, the lights in the staff dormitories were also turned off.
As Wei Kang walked along the tree-lined road, there were obviously fewer people walking along the way.
In the R&D building, red lanterns hang high and cliparts of Happy Chinese New Year are everywhere.
Near the elevator, a red fence surrounded two smiling big Fuwa dolls. Inside were placed large golden ingots. A fortune tree was hung with peach blossoms and lanterns, and the shining golden light kept flashing.
, grabbing all the attention of the crowd coming in and out.
Wei Kang quickly walked into the elevator, and he was the only one inside.
After walking through the long corridor and arriving at the office, I found an uninvited guest standing at the door.
"Uncle Sun, why is it you? I remember you seem to be on vacation today?" Wei Kang looked at Sun Chengren with some surprise.
Sun Chengren, with gray hair on his temples, stood upright at the door, his demeanor still elegant and gentle.
He looked at Wei Kang and smiled: "Yes, I was a little worried before leaving and wanted to have a good talk with you."
Wei Kang showed a hint of surprise, but without saying anything else, he opened the door and went in.
"Uncle Sun, come in and say, if you need anything, just go to my house directly. If you can't, you can just call me."
He poured a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of Sun Chengren, then took his seat and said with a smile.
Sun Chengren picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said quietly: "Today is different from the past. There is someone in your family. How can I come directly to the door? If I disturb you two and delay giving birth to a grandson for Mr. Wei, then I will be guilty.
Big."
"Uh." Wei Kang was speechless. He really couldn't answer the question, so he could only pick up the cup and take a sip, then changed the subject without leaving any trace.
"Uncle Sun, where do you plan to go during the Chinese New Year? This winter is very cold, why don't you consider going to the beach to bask in the sun?"
Sun Chengren shook his head and said slowly: "I have a nephew who is getting married during the Chinese New Year. I have to go back to have a wedding banquet and spend time with my parents. They are already in their seventies and eighties. They are getting old. Alas."
"Haha, that's a good thing..."
As soon as Wei Kang forced out a smile, he saw Sun Chengren had a resentful look on his face and continued talking to himself.
"Mr. Wei, logically I shouldn't ask, but if I don't ask, my heart really feels like being scratched by claws, and I can't always feel at peace."
"I have been in Sanqing for almost thirty years, and I am already over fifty years old. I have watched you grow up, so there must be no one more qualified than me to ask this question."
At this point, he sighed: "Mr. Wei, they have been away for more than four years, almost five years. At first, I saw you were so sad, so I thought it would be good to devote yourself to your career. At least you have someone to rely on. Later, Sanqing developed
Very good, I have been worrying about your personal problems."
"But you did a good job in this regard. I read you right. I found a very good girlfriend. I was really happy. I drank a bottle of Moutai by myself that night and got drunk."
"Later on, I saw that your relationship was developing very well, so I didn't ask too much. Later, you made it public yourself, and everyone was happy for you. I have met this girl Xiao Jian several times. She is smart, sensible, and well-educated.
You are a perfect match."
Sun Chengren looked at Wei Kang, his eyes full of expectation, and asked.
"Xiaokang, you are now 30. As the saying goes, when you are thirty, is it time to think about marriage? When can I drink your wedding wine?"
"This...I haven't thought about it yet." This sudden soul torture instantly overwhelmed Wei Kang. He hesitated for a long time before answering.
He had always felt that marriage was still a little far away from him, and that men should still put their career first. Besides, he had never seriously discussed this matter with Jian Jianyun, and the other party seemed to be focused on work and did not take the initiative to mention it.
So he really doesn't know when to get married.
Seeing his confused look, Sun Chengren couldn't help but look disappointed, hating that iron could not make steel.
"You, you are already thirty, it's time to think about it. Even if you don't plan for yourself, you should plan for the woman. Xiao Jian is about the same age as you. She is also 30 years old. You still plan to treat her like a flower.
Can Yu's eldest daughter wait until she is old? Let me tell you, pregnancy at an advanced age is very harmful to the body."
Wei Kang subconsciously said: "Ah, no, we happen to have a fertility drug for older women..."
Before he finished speaking, he knew something was wrong and decisively shut up.
Sure enough, Sun Chengren said angrily: "I'm so angry. You really plan to find an elderly woman."
Seeing that Old Sun was really angry, Wei Kang quickly smiled and said: "Uncle Sun, look at what you said, I didn't think of it at the beginning. What you said makes sense. In fact, our relationship is developing quite well. We can't fault it.
Whatever the problem, I have already regarded her as my marriage partner. Don’t worry, I will definitely put marriage on the agenda next year."
Sun Chengren waved his hand and said: "Why are you waiting for next year? Let's do this. During the New Year, you can arrange for the parents of both parties to meet. You are the only child of the Wei family anyway, and you don't have any relatives except your grandparents. I might as well meet for you.
, we can settle the matter."
"Ah?" Wei Kang was stunned: "Do you want it so fast? I haven't told Yunyun yet, it won't scare her."
Sun Chengren glared at him, and then showed a confident smile: "Believe me, the woman has definitely been prepared for it a long time ago. If you are not in a hurry, others will be."
Wei Kang pondered for a moment and said thoughtfully: "After talking for so long, it's really time to meet the parents. I also have to see what the legendary mother-in-law's attitude is."
He nodded and said: "Then it's settled."
Sun Chengren was overjoyed, and his old face instantly turned into a chrysanthemum smile: "That's great. It's best to meet before the year before. I will go out after the year."
"No problem." Wei Kang agreed and was about to turn on the computer to work when he saw that Sun Chengren had no intention of leaving and instead kept staring at him.
He suddenly understood and had to take out his mobile phone and dial Jian Lian Yun's number.
The call was quickly connected. Jian Jianyun seemed to have just arrived at work, and there was a loud sound coming from the phone.
"Is it convenient for you to answer the phone? I want to ask you something."
"Wait a moment, I'll go to the stairwell." The background sound quickly disappeared.
"It's okay now. Just tell me."
"Oh, I just wanted to ask if it would be convenient for the parents of both parties to meet and have a chat before New Year's Eve."
The person on the other side was silent for a moment, and there was no sound for a while.
Wei Kang's heart sank, and he felt a little irritated for no reason, and said: "Isn't it convenient? Then forget it."
"No, no, it's convenient. I'm sorry. I was too surprised and happy just now, so I didn't react at the moment." Jian Jian Yun's voice came over with a mixture of surprise and surprise.
Only then did Wei Kang feel a little more comfortable and said with a smile: "That's good. You can arrange the specific time. Anyway, I will be on vacation by then and I will be free at any time."
"OK."
Not sure if it was an illusion, Wei Kang felt that Jian Jian Yun's voice had become particularly sweet, sweet and moving, and he heard her ask softly.
"Why do you suddenly want to meet your parents?"
"Oh, the main thing is that we have been talking for a long time and we are both satisfied. It is time to consider moving to the next stage. Meeting the parents is the first plan in the next stage."
Jian Jian Yun chuckled: "Why does it sound so strange? Do you have three years to start a family? Can't you make your five-year plan?"
"Of course, falling in love, getting married, and having children are all major events in life. We should follow the plan step by step and do what we should do at any age." Wei Kang said seriously.
"Oh, that's it, I understand." Jian Jianyun said softly.
After hanging up the phone, Wei Kang smiled proudly: "It's done, Uncle Sun, you should feel relieved now."
****
Jian Lian Yun walked to the stairwell window and looked out the window, lost in thought.
For some reason, she didn't seem as happy as she imagined when she heard the news that her boyfriend wanted to meet her parents.
It was really a surprise at first, and I felt very sweet in my heart.
But after hearing Wei Kang say that this is a step-by-step plan for different stages of life.
The overflowing joy in my heart gradually dissipated.
"Could it be that I just made a choice to accomplish a major event in my life?"
She thought this in her mind, hesitated for a moment, and dialed her father's phone number again.
"Yunyun, what's going on?" Jian Guohua's voice was full of energy, and he was obviously in a good mood.
"Well, my boyfriend wants to meet his parents, you can take care of it." Jian Jianyun said in a low voice, a little shy.
"What? Oh, this is great news." Jian Guohua slapped the table and laughed loudly: "Oh my God, I have finally waited for this day."
"Dad, what you said makes it sound like I can't get married." Jian Jianyun complained.
"Hahaha, if I marry you off as soon as possible, I'll take care of a big thing on my mind. Years ago, right? No problem. I'll be waiting for you at any time. You can decide which time is more convenient for you." Jian Guohua's loud voice came over, with a look of joy.
A look of dissatisfaction.
"What about the location?"
"Let's go to Haishi. It's close anyway, so you can go home for the New Year." Jian Guohua suddenly hesitated for a moment and asked, "You won't not go home for the New Year, right?"
"Look what you said, how could it be possible? Of course I am celebrating the New Year at home." Jian Jianyun said with embarrassment and annoyance.
Jian Guohua pondered for a moment and said decisively: "Well, isn't Xiaowei's family empty? Then let's celebrate the New Year together at our house."
"Isn't this not good?" Jian Jianyun said timidly.
"You silly girl, don't you look at Xiao Wei's condition? You will never find a son-in-law like this in eight lifetimes, but you have to hold it tightly in your hand and don't mess around." Jian Guohua simply didn't know what to say.
