Chapter 155 Since the Xu Family also recognizes our Xixiang
The next day, when he woke up, the sky was foggy. Li Qingwen lay in front of the window in his pajamas, yawning, and told someone who was still sleeping, "It's snowing."
Snowflakes as big as goose feathers splashed down, landing on the open land outside Jiyue Mansion, on the trees, and on the rows of cars.
The snow hasn't completely accumulated yet, but it's already showing signs of turning white. In another half a day, it will probably be spread out to a thickness of two centimeters.
Little Wings’ report is really accurate.
Zhou Yongan squirmed on the bed, but did not open his eyes or show any intention of getting up. He continued to enjoy the warmth of the quilt.
After doing morning exercises, Li Qingwen went into the bathroom to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then went downstairs to prepare breakfast.
A large express package was delivered to his doorstep last night. It was very heavy, so Li Qingwen found a pair of scissors and opened it.
It's a bag of rice.
Rice?
Looking at the information on the delivery note, it was delivered from the same city.
So I simply used this bag of rice to cook porridge, fried a few eggs, made some sausages, and boiled some broccoli.
Finally, I fried a plate of rice beans as a side dish for the porridge.
Zhou Yongan was wearing new clothes he had bought the day before. His brown eyes gradually became clearer than cloudy, and his face still had the white and tender feeling of having just washed his face. His tall figure moved from the stairs to the kitchen in a moment and he hugged his wife from behind.
"Did you know that the express delivery last night was a bag of rice?" Li Qingwen came to the dining table and opened his breakfast.
Zhou Yongan nodded, his tone casual and natural: "I'll talk to Meihuazhuang and ask them to send me a bag every month."
That day, Li Qingwen said several times that the rice was delicious.
Hearing this, Li Qingwen suddenly felt warm and didn't even feel cold on a snowy day.
After breakfast, the two of them took their gifts and set off for the old house. Li Qingwen watched Zhou Yongan driving and said that he also wanted to learn how to drive.
Zhou Yongan was reluctant to suggest it: "If you learn to drive, it will be too convenient for you to run away from home if you are not satisfied with me in the future. I don't want you to learn it."
"If you say so, I'll learn even more." Li Qingwen was born rebellious.
She had missed the opportunity to enroll in a driving school with her classmates when she was in college, and now she had to make up for this regret.
Zhou Yongan said: "You learn, if you learn to drive, I will learn to fly a plane, and I will block you wherever you go in the future."
At this time, Li Qingwen thought that Zhou Yongan was just talking. It was not until later, when he really flew a helicopter between China and the United States, that she realized that this man had already planned to go abroad.
When we arrived at the old house, the sacrificial offerings had already been placed in the ancestral hall, and everyone worshipped their ancestors with heavy hearts.
Grandma was kneeling at the front, followed by Zhou Chunsheng and Luo Zijin, and then the four young people.
Everyone kowtowed in unison to remember the ancestors of the Zhou family.
After the kowtow, the grandmother called her two grandsons forward and continued to speak to the ancestors, saying that she hoped the Zhou family ancestors would bless her.
Zhou Ying gestured to Li Qingwen: Sister-in-law, did you hear that? You are being induced to give birth.
Li Qingwen gestured - be careful not to be seen by grandma.
Zhou Ying stopped gesturing.
After the sacrifice was completed, Luo Zijin arranged to take a family photo, and Zhou Ying jumped upstairs to find the camera.
Grandma asked Aunt Lan to find some red paper. The old lady was used to the traditional way of applying lip color, which was to dip the red paper in some water and then gently apply it on the lips.
Li Qingwen helped her mother-in-law to dress, and then stood aside alone after she was done, feeling quite uncomfortable.
Because she had just returned from the ancestral hall, her grandmother gave her a meaningful look.
The meaning in that look made Li Qingwen feel like "an outsider in this family".
Zhou Ying took down the camera and asked her eldest brother to urge everyone to gather.
Zhou Xixiang let go of the calico cat, stood up from the sofa, went upstairs to call people, and gathered everyone in the living room.
Zhou Yongan adjusted the camera parameters and taught Aunt Lan how to use it. Then he joined the team and walked to the sofa and stood next to Li Qingwen.
At the moment of taking the photo, Zhou Yongan stretched out his flat palm and placed it under Li Qingwen's chin. Li Qingwen turned his head to look at him cunningly because of his teasing.
The photo also captured this moment.
After taking the photos, Zhou Ying called her sister-in-law to her room. It turned out that she had brought back a bunch of design works and now she asked Li Qingwen to help her try them on.
Zhou Yongan took on the photo-taking job without hesitation.
Most of the clothes he tried on were skirts. Zhou Yongan pressed the air-conditioning button on the wall and turned the heating to the maximum.
Li Qingwen tried on five or six sets of clothes. Each set had its own unique style. They were light, comfortable, and fitted. Each piece could be worn on the street, not just on the catwalk.
But for Li Qingwen, these are not the styles she would wear in her daily life, and the probability of wearing them is only when attending some dinner events.
Seeing the beauty of different skirts worn by Li Qingwen, Zhou Yongan praised his younger sister: "Master designer, I will pay you a salary. How about you be your sister-in-law's exclusive costume designer in the future?"
Zhou Ying - I have no problem with that. My sister-in-law has such a great figure, so don't pay me a salary. Just be my model and walk the runway for me, right?
Zhou Yongan: "Your sister-in-law is less than 1.7 meters tall. What kind of model is she? Don't set your sights on her."
Zhou Ying made a face at her second brother.
Zhou Yongan asked Li Qingwen to change his clothes quickly to be careful of being used as collateral for a debt.
Li Qingwen changed back into his clothes and was called downstairs by Zhou Yongan to get wet in the snow.
She really had nothing to do, so she actually put on the hood of her down jacket and ran wildly in the snow with Zhou Yongan.
Zhou Yongan: "Do you remember how to ski last time when I taught you?"
Li Qingwen: "You should remember..."
……
The old lady was discussing the eldest son's engagement with Luo Zijin in the room.
The old lady said: "Since there is no problem with the Xu family, let's find someone to calculate a date and finalize the child's marriage as soon as possible."
Luo Zijin knew that the eldest brother had gone to the Xu family for a meeting alone a few days ago. Although Mr. Xu had replied promptly and said he was very satisfied, Xixiang's attitude suddenly became unclear.
"Mom, let me confirm with Xixiang."
Luo Zijin thought to himself, Boss, please don't disagree again.
Zhou Xixiang and Zhou Chunsheng just went to the ancestral hall again and are not in the room now.
Luo Zijin withdrew his gaze.
The old lady put on her glasses and mentioned the second child again: "Xiao Wen is close to you, you should find a time to make things clear to her. From now on, she won't have to come to the Zhou family for any big or small matters that don't require her."
Hearing this, Luo Zijin suddenly felt that his body was colder than the weather outside, and a chill went straight through his heart.
"Mom, Qingwen and Yongan are doing fine, and there is nothing wrong with them. Haven't you been quite satisfied with them in the past two years?"
The old lady shook her head. "In the past, it was to solve an urgent problem. If we divorced hastily after getting married, the outside world would have a bad impression of Yongan. Now it's been two years, we can completely use the reason of 'no children' to explain to the outside world."
