Chapter 444: Life is a Little Success
Chapter 444: Life is a Little Success
"Mom, what is this?"
Chen asked, he didn't know what was going on.
Mao Xiaoqin ignored him and sat back at the table and said to Yu Xian, "Xiao Yu, I asked you to come over for dinner this time for two reasons."
"First thing."
Mao Xiaoqin handed over one of the Nokia N95s and said, "Your uncle Chen and I noticed that you are still using a domestically produced Haier phone. We have discussed getting you a new phone. How can a pretty girl use such an old electronic product?"
"mom."
Chen Zhuo was delighted when he heard this: "This is the best domestic mobile phone. It's not an old product at all. I queued up to get it last year."
"Mr. Chen, do you really think your mother is so easy to fool?"
Mao Xiaoqin rolled her eyes at her son and said, "You're saying a cell phone worth a few hundred yuan is worth a few thousand yuan, so you can save the money to invest in stocks, right?"
Chen was stunned for a moment: "You knew it a long time ago?"
"It's not too early, but at least I'm not completely senile!"
Empress Dowager Mao said unhappily.
Chen Peisong took a sip of the fruit drink beside him and watched the mother and son checking the accounts with a smile.
After Mao Xiaoqin finished teaching her son a lesson, she continued to say to Yu Xian: "The second thing is your mother's monument erection. We also heard about it from Chen Zhuo."
"If you go back to your hometown to handle it, we may not be able to help you, but I heard that you finally decided to stay in Guangzhou. If you need anything, just tell Auntie directly."
Mao Xiaoqin gently reminded: "It is relatively easy to adjust the emergency department. I can go and help with some small matters."
Mao Xiaoqin's tone was full of sincerity and honesty, without a trace of courtesy or hypocrisy.
So, the cheerful and straightforward Sichuan girl was quickly moved by her "mother-in-law".
The eye sockets were red, as if the sunset glow dyed by the twilight was swept to the corners of the eyes.
"Oh, don't cry, don't cry."
Mao Xiaoqin reached out her hand and wiped away the tears on Yu Xian's long eyelashes: "You are so beautiful, if you cry, auntie will be distressed, and Chen will have to blame me."
"It's okay, Mom."
Chen said teasingly: "Yu Xian is super strong. Just leave the chicken drumstick in the soup for her and she will laugh out loud."
"really?"
Mao Xiaoqin quickly scooped up the chicken leg with a spoon.
"Not without……"
Yu Xian quickly declined. She didn't want to eat chicken legs at all. This was all Chen Zhuo's false accusation.
But Empress Dowager Mao had already put it into the bowl without giving any explanation. Yu Xian felt that he had no way to defend himself, so he pretended to be angry and stepped on Chen Zhe.
After she finished stepping on it, she found it funny herself.
A bright smile broke out on her oval face, and when it spread to her eyebrows, the corners of her mouth also slightly raised, seeming to be both angry and happy, which made her endearing.
"But Auntie, the cell phone..."
Yu Xian had no intention of accepting the N95 as she thought it was too expensive.
Chen Zhuo interrupted again: "Just take it if I give it to you. Didn't you see my mom prepared two mobile phones? If you don't take it, she can't give it to me."
"That's absolutely true."
Mao Xiaoqin said bluntly: "If Xiaoyu doesn't accept it, we won't give it to Chen. Anyway, he is so busy and has no time to call his parents. He doesn't need to buy a new phone at all."
Chen smiled and knew that he would be betrayed in the end.
Looking at this happy scene of "a family of four", Wu Yu and Wang Changhua were quite envious.
Wu Yu could see that the Chen couple were not being so nice to Yu Xian just because there were outsiders visiting.
They didn't know that there would be two freeloaders today. They just simply called Yu Xian home for a meal, and by the way, replaced the mobile phone for their "daughter-in-law", and also expressed their willingness to help with the monument erection.
"As long as cos sister is happy, I am happy if she is happy."
Wu Yu propped her chin up with her arms, thinking foolishly.
The two met at a cram school in junior high school. At that time, Yu Xian was pretty, lively and sweet, and was a well-known little star in the cram school building.
Later, Yu Xian's family underwent a major change. Wu Yu was very worried that her good friend would become depressed because of this, and even considered asking her parents to support her to continue her studies.
As a result, Yu Xian did not want any financial support from others, nor did he want the living expenses from his "ungrateful father", and chose to work independently in a convenience store to save money.
Every afternoon in high school, Yu Xian left school with a small bag on his back.
When she turned around and waved goodbye, the spots of light reflected from the glass walls of the teaching building looked like a river of stars pouring into her eyes.
Wu Yu felt that she would never forget this scene in her life.
Perhaps it was this tenacity and stubbornness that won the favor of Professor Guan when I was in college.
As for love, although Chen Zhe is awesome, Wu Yu always feels that he is still a little unworthy of the love-brained cosplay sister. However, if Uncle Chen and Aunt Mao are added, then there will be no problem!
Just when Xiao Wu was intoxicated by the happiness of his good friend, Wang Changhua suddenly leaned over quietly.
He lowered his voice and stammered, "Well...my parents are also so reasonable. If you don't believe me, you can go and see them."
"what?"
Wu Yu blinked, looked at Wang Changhua who was full of expectation, she turned her head away and spat lightly.
Who are you going to meet now?
There's not even a hint of fate!
……
After finishing her meal, Yu Xian found her apron, put it on, bent down and started cleaning the messy table.
Mao Xiaoqin didn't force it. She washed her hands and went to the living room to sit down.
Lao Chen was making tea. He glanced at her and asked, "Is Xiao Yu washing the dishes?"
"Ah."
Mao Xiaoqin picked up the slightly hot tea, took a sip, and then sighed comfortably: "After so many years, the burden of your Chen family can finally be transferred from me to someone else."
His wife's description was interesting, and Chen Peisong couldn't help laughing: "It's still early. Although young people have more energy, they also need old comrades to take the helm and keep watch."
"Okay, okay, don't use official language like the director of the research lab."
Mao Xiaoqin rolled her eyes at her husband and looked towards the kitchen.
Yu Xian was washing dishes, Wu Yu was helping beside him, Chen Zhuo moved a chair and sat outside, and Wang Changhua was leaning against the glass door.
They didn't know what to say, and from time to time there were bursts of "Hahahaha" joyful laughter.
"I always feel like I've seen this scene somewhere before."
A look of satisfaction appeared on Mao Xiaoqin's face.
I don't know why, but the girl who was as cool and pure as the osmanthus flowers under the moon flashed through my mind.
Mao Xiaoqin felt that if she was the "daughter-in-law", this scene today would not have happened.
"Weiwei doesn't look like the type to go into the kitchen."
Mao Xiaoqin picked up the teacup and took another sip.
It tastes slightly bitter to the touch, but has a sweet aftertaste.
Chen Peisong didn't know why his wife seemed a little disappointed.
It's like a rich man who owns a gold mine but is still obsessed with the diamond mine next door.
Little happiness in life is better than perfection, simplicity is happiness.
Dr. Mao, don't be too greedy.
……
After all the dishes were put away, "Hua Yan Qiao Yu" and "Chen Zhe's family of four" sat in the living room and chatted for a while and drank some tea.
When the time was almost up, everyone stood up and said goodbye.
Chen Zhuozizi sent the cosplay girl home. Wang Changhua hesitated for a while, then pretended to be impatient and said, "Forget it, forget it. I am a gentleman after all. I will also send Wu Baolong home."
Wu Yu was too lazy to argue with this stubborn man.
She said to Chen Zhuo, "I have a friend who is very interested in your investment. He said he has a question to ask you."
"is it?"
Chen Zhuo never expected that students from an art school would also study commercial finance.
"I'll give him a call, you guys go to the balcony and talk."
Wu Yu handed the phone to Chen Zhuo.
Chen Zhuo took it and walked towards the balcony while politely greeting: "Hello, I'm Chen Zhuo from Suhui... Hello..."
After calling "Hello" for a long time, no one responded. Chen glanced at the screen and realized that no call had been made.
"What do you mean?"
Chen was a little puzzled, and when he turned around he found Wu Yu was also coming over.
On the dim balcony with the lights off, classmate Wu had a gloomy look on his face, which was actually a little eerie and scary.
"You have something to tell me?"
At this time, Chen Zhuo also realized that Wu Yu was just looking for a reason to call him out alone.
Wu Yu nodded, frowned and asked, "Chen Zhe, what's going on between you and Song Shiwei?"
Chen's heart skipped a beat.
