"Ah, good morning," Bai Xuyang said after being taken aback, "Xiao Zhong is back."
Jiang Zhong was stunned: "Why are you here? So early?"
"We also just arrived for a while." Bai Xuyang said.
they? Meaning it's not just him
Jiang Zhong turned his head and glanced at Xi Qin, suddenly sympathizing with him.
"Jiang Zhong is back?" Zheng Yinqiu's voice suddenly came from behind Bai Xuyang, "This is Xiaoxi, come in, what are you doing at the door? Xuyang, go sit on the sofa."
"Okay," Bai Xuyang turned around first, "Auntie."
Jiang Zhong stood still: "Mom."
Xi Qin smiled: "Hello, Auntie."
"Hey, hello, hello," Zheng Yinqiu said with an impeccable smile, "Come in, why are you bringing so many things? Jiang Zhong, you are too serious, I don't know how to help you get some."
Jiang Zhong went in and took out his own slippers, and brought Xi Qin a new pair: "He won't let me help."
Bai Xuyang at the side glanced at Xi Qin sensitively when he heard the words.
How could Zheng Yinqiu not know the thoughts of these young people: "Xiao Xi, put your things where you want."
Jiang Zhong kicked off his sneakers in twos and then stretched out his hand to Xi Qin with the slippers on: "Let me put them on, you change your shoes."
There were indeed a lot of things, and Bai Xuyang took some from Jiang Zhong.
Xi Qin squatted down and carefully untied the shoelaces before changing the sneakers on his feet. After putting on the slippers, he put his own shoes and Jiang Zhong's neatly into the shoe cabinet that Jiang Zhong had not closed the door just now.
Jiang Zhong and Bai Xuyang put the things that Xi Qin brought to the side. There were already a lot of gift boxes and bags piled up there. At the same time, Jiang Zhong heard the conversation in the living room not far away.
"My aunt and the others are here too?" Jiang Zhong asked Bai Xuyang.
"Well," Bai Xuyang responded, "The whole family is here."
Jiang took a deep breath. He thought there were only his parents, but now his aunt's family has six people. When Xi Qin saw his parents for the first time, he had a sense of "sheep in the wolf's lair".
Jiang Zhong hurriedly put down his things, turned around and ran to the entrance.
"Mom," Jiang Zhong took Zheng Yinqiu's arm and asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you tell me that Auntie and the others will come today? How embarrassing."
"Your aunt also called me this morning," Zheng Yinqiu lowered her voice, "I thought there would be no conflict between their coming and seeing Xiaoxi, so I didn't tell you."
"All right."
There was indeed no conflict, but Xi Qin suffered a lot. He was already nervous enough, so he must be more careful judging from this posture.
Jiang Zhong turned his head and gave Xi Qin a helpless expression.
Xi Qin instinctively kept paying attention to Jiang Zhong's movements in a circle of strangers. He probably knew Jiang Zhong's worries in his heart, so he patted Jiang Zhong's back lightly a few times at an angle that Zheng Yinqiu couldn't see.
"Go, Xiaoxi," Zheng Yinqiu greeted, "Go and sit."
Jiang Zhong let go of Zheng Yinqiu's hand, and walked beside Xi Qin in an orderly manner, and went to the leisure sofa area with him.
There was a lively program on the TV, but everyone just regarded it as background sound and only watched it occasionally.
When Father Jiang and Uncle Jiang were chatting about people's livelihood, Bai Xuyang, who came back before them, interjected a few words from time to time. There was an empty seat next to Auntie, which was obviously occupied by Zheng Yinqiu before. Bai Yuelang was the most leisurely, eating melon seeds While playing with the phone.
When Jiang Zhong and Xi Qin followed Zheng Yinqiu, Jiang Chengye was the first to turn his head and look Xi Qin up and down.
The conversation stopped abruptly, and everyone on the sofa looked at them.
I don't know how Xi Qin feels, anyway, Jiang Zhong is getting nervous, and his father's expression is too serious.
In front of Jiang Zhong, Jiang Chengye is an unsmiling and very secure father image. Jiang Zhong has always known that his father has several faces, which can be seen from his attitude towards him and Zheng Yinqiu.
But Jiang Zhong didn't expect his father to change his face so quickly and violently. One second he was talking cheerfully, and the next second he looked at Xi Qin with a straight face.
"Hello, Uncle." Xi Qin bowed slightly in the direction of Jiang Chengye and his uncle, then turned his head to do the same to his uncle, "Hello, Auntie."
Finally, they smiled and nodded to Bai Xuyang and Bai Yuelang respectively.
It's okay, Jiang Zhong thought, at least Xi Qin's voice sounds completely normal.
So he followed Xi Qin's voice and greeted: "Auntie, Uncle, you are here so early."
"You came back too late," Jiang Chengye said with a serious face, "You are Xi Qin, right?"
"Yes," Xi Qin said with a harmless smile on his face, "Uncle, just call me Xiao Xi."
Jiang Chengye nodded expressionlessly.
My aunt and uncle didn't know why, and felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. The aunt smiled and said to Jiang Zhong: "I just asked your mother why you weren't here. It turns out that you were out with friends."
Before Jiang Zhong could speak, Zheng Yinqiu rushed to answer: "Jiang Zhong has been unwilling to stay at home honestly since he was a child, and would go out to play every time he was on holiday."
"Young people are like this now," said the auntie with a "harmful" sound, "Xuyang and Yueyue are also like this. If they hadn't come here today, they would have gone out with classmates and friends a long time ago."
Afterwards, the topic became "my child is like this" and "your child is like that", Jiang Zhong and Xi Qin were completely ignored.
Seeing the success, Jiang Chongle took the opportunity to drag Xi Qin to sit on the other side of the sofa, and gave Xi Qin another can of drink.
Jiang Chengye and his uncle also picked up the words that had been interrupted before, and for a moment, the atmosphere in the living room was full of harmony and harmony.
For the next half day, Zheng Yinqiu's Jiang Chengye didn't mention the relationship between Jiang Zhong and Xi Qin on the surface, but Jiang Zhong knew that his parents had been watching Xi Qin quietly from the first sight.
When it comes to current events, Jiang Chengye will pretend to ask Jiang Zhong for his views, and then naturally transition to asking Jiang Zhong's "friends" if they have any unique insights.
When talking about the small details of life, Zheng Yinqiu would inadvertently ask a few juniors to follow suit, and then secretly observe Xi Qin's attitude towards his son.
Regarding this, Jiang Zhong just wanted to say, your parents will always be your parents!
Fortunately, Xi Qin can be said to be able to answer questions, have clear thinking, and be articulate when facing the inspection of the two "workplace old fritters".
Zheng Yinqiu and Jiang Chengye should be quite satisfied, Jiang Zhong thought.
Jiang Zhong didn't know if his aunt and uncle guessed his relationship with Xi Qin, but they were definitely surprised.
Who would bring a friend to his home alone on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and stay with the "friend" all the time, and the "friend" doesn't feel embarrassed, even the whole family has left, and the "friend" still follows the host's house Coming out to see off guests means staying overnight here tonight.
If Jiang Zhong knew the question in his aunt and uncle's mind, he would answer generously: I will.
But he didn't know, and he couldn't distract himself from his aunt and uncle's thoughts.
Because after seeing off the aunt's family, Zheng Yinqiu went forward to close the door, then turned around and said with a smile, "Let's go, Xiaoxi, let's go in and have a chat."
coming! Jiang Zhongxin said, this time he really came, but he only called Xi Qin and not him.
In order to increase the comfort of chatting, Jiang Zhong specially washed a plate of fruits and cut them up and put them in front of Zheng Yinqiu and Jiang Chengye.
"Hey, you're so sweet today," Zheng Yinqiu reached out and took the fruit that Jiang Zhong used a toothpick to insert into the fruit that was handed to her. "You want to bribe me with a plate of fruit?"
"What are you talking about?" Jiang Zhong didn't blush when his purpose was exposed, "You said it as if I was not caring before."
Zheng Yinqiu gave him a suspicious look with a smile, then turned to continue talking to Xi Qin: "Where were we talking just now? Oh yes, you and Jiang Zhong are roommates."
"Huh?" Jiang Zhong interrupted, "Didn't I tell you this?"
Zheng Yinqiu gave him a "what do you say" expression.
"So you've known each other since freshman year, and you just got together not long ago?" Zheng Yinqiu asked.
"Almost," Jiang Zhong interjected, "Our high school is in the same school, and Xi Qin's is also an experimental high school."
Zheng Yinqiu glanced at him again.
"Your mother asked him," Jiang Chengye, who had been silently serving as the backdrop, couldn't help but say, "Don't talk yet."
Jiang Zhong stuffed a piece of fruit into his mouth.
"Yes, I've known Jiang Zhong since high school," Xi Qin curled his lips, "but he doesn't know me. Strictly speaking, we met only in college. Coincidentally, Jiang Zhong and I chose the same major."
Zheng Yinqiu nodded: "Then you two are destined."
Jiang Zhong hurriedly followed and nodded non-stop.
Zheng Yinqiu had nothing to do with him, so he smiled helplessly: "We didn't take care of him much, Jiang Zhong usually just plays around, and I don't know if you are suitable or not."
Xi Qin smiled and shook his head: "Jiang Zhong has a very good personality, which made up for many of my shortcomings."
"That's fine," Zheng Yinqiu relaxed, "Jiang Zhong's father and I just want to get to know you, and I think you are quite calm, so let's get along first."
"Okay," Xi Qin nodded, "Thank you uncle and aunt."
"Thank you for that." Zheng Yinqiu waved his hand.
"That's it?" Jiang Zhong looked at Zheng Yinqiu for a while, and Xi Qin for a while, "It's gone?"
"What more do you want, you brat?" Zheng Yinqiu threatened, "Then why don't you ask your dad a few questions?"
Jiang Zhong: "..."
This is unnecessary.
"Come on," Zheng Yinqiu turned to Jiang Chengye, "I have nothing to ask, you can talk to Xiao Xi."
Jiang Zhong opened his eyes wide and looked at Xi Qin.
I'm so sorry I dug a hole for my boyfriend.
"I didn't ask either." Jiang Chengye's tone of voice to Zheng Yinqiu was completely different from before, "If you think it's okay, then I'm fine."
"Let's leave it at that," Jiang Zhong said immediately, "Xi Qin is already fine, don't you believe my vision?"
Both Zheng Yinqiu and Jiang Chengye didn't want to talk to him, so they ate some fruit by themselves.
It's really useless to worry about him, it's too big to stay.
"Then uncle and aunt, I'll go back first." After a while, Xi Qin offered to leave, "Come to visit another day."
"You want to go back?" Jiang Zhong looked at him reluctantly, "It's so late, why don't you stay at my house for the night."
Xi Qin opened his mouth but did not say anything, Zheng Yinqiu followed and said, "Yes, let's go tomorrow, it's not easy to take a taxi on the night of the New Year's Eve."
Jiang Zhong looked at Xi Qin expectantly.
Xi Qin didn't want to be separated from Jiang Zhong at first, so he obediently agreed: "Then disturb uncle and aunt."
"It's okay," Zheng Yinqiu arranged, "Jiang Zhong, go and see if the guest room needs to be tidied up, and then take a small seat to rest."
"Why did you let him sleep in the guest room?" Jiang Zhong said logically, "Come with me..."
Zheng Yinqiu glanced at him lightly.
"All right, all right," Jiang Zhong hurriedly changed his words, pulling Xi Qin up, "I'll take you to the guest room."
